NEW BOOKS

Life Everlasting" BY John Fiske.
Published by Houghton, Miffiin & Co.
For sale by Davis & Banister.
On the evening Of December 10, 1900,
Mr.. Fiske delivered, in Sanders The
atre, Cambridge, the address which is
here printed in book form. It was Civ
en- at the request of Harvard Universi-
ty in accordance with the terms OF the
Ingerson lectureship but, in Mr..
Fiske's mind. It was the completion, in
a sense, of a series Of philosophic stud
les issued under the title, The Des-
tiny Of Man Viewed in the Light Of
His Origin" "The idea Of God as AZ
fected by Modern knowledge
Through Nature to God"
The keynote Of this interesting ut
tie book is sounded IN the concluding
paragraph:
II hope that nothing has been said
70 Indicate the probability that the pa
tient study Of evolution is likely soon TO
supply the basis for Natural Theolo-
Ry more comprehensive. more pro-
found. and more hopeful than any that
formerly have been imagined. The
nineteenth century has borne the brunt,
the twentieth win reap the fruitlon."

Empress. Published by Harper d
Brother, New York and London.
There is an attempt made to make
the reader believe this book to be large
ly authentic history and biography 1t
is long. it is interesting and 1t may
be true. The illustrations are from
photographs. There is triviaity
about some of the stories and fanci-
fitness about others that show the au-
thor's experience and ability at the
same time Some Of il seems to be
purely narrative OF the authors own
experiences.
The book is fashioned in some
respects. 1t is like an elaborated diary
of a woman That is really about what
the book pretends to be. The anecdotes
are not all pleasant and uneventful
There is no lack OF tragedy in the book.
Some OF it. provided the book is real
ly history is handled with great elev-
erness.
In the closing paragraph the author
is kind enough to promise some more
OF the same kind OF stuff. We will
have TO admit that intermingled in the
book there is a good deal OF dreary
padding. which we accept without re-
monstrance merely because We are told
that the facts are true.

NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS.
Breyets for Roosevelt.

Adutant General Corbin says that the
Board OF Brevets. recently appointed to
meet at the War Department. would de-
vote it's attention solely to the cases Of
officers and enlisted men who especially
distinguished themselves in the cam
paigns in China and the Philippines. 1t
will have nothing to do with respect to
the case OF officers who rendered special
service in the West Indian campaign.
The latter class OF cases was disposed
OF by similar board. which concluded
its sessions over year ago.
While the fact that brevet had been
recommended to Congress for Colonel
Roosevelt was published at the time
the nominations were sent to the
Senate. it appears that the facts that
there were two separate recommends
tons. and the exact basis for the board
act on we're no; made FL lie. Therefore
the Adutaut General furnished these
transcripts from the proceedings OF the
board:

Groans With Terror at Auburn.

Auburn. n. Y. (SpeciaD.-At 3.I4
O'Clock Friday morning the train from
Buffalo bearing Leon F. Czolgosz. as
sassin of President Mckinley, pulled into
the Central Station here.
CzolgoSz was taken 10 the main hall OF
the prison and was seated on a long
bench. He allowed his head to fall on
the bench, his eyes closed, and he began
to groan While his handouts were be-
ing unlocked his muscles twitched and
his whole body quivered.
The handouts unlocked, Czolgosz was
raised to sitting posture. but he had
not strength to support himself. Prison
keepers raised him to his feet. but his
legs hung limp and he was half dragged,
half carried moaning as if in agony,
into the office of Deputy Warden Tup-
per, a dozen yards away. Keepers be-
gan stripping him of his clothes, and he
groaned louder than ever.
Warden Meade feared total collapse
and summoned the prison physician, DIR.
Germ. but by the time that officer ar
rived Czolgosz was clad in the regula-
ton shoddy suit for condemned men
and after treatment was apparently bet
ter. When he was assured that he was
not to be harmed he became calmer, and
Is minutes later he was taken to his cell.
