The guessing as to the authorship or "An Englishwomans Love Letters con t;nues, and at the present writing the vnvstery is far from being solved. One reviewer speaks of them as being par ticularly feminine in style and character, while another one gives it as piece of London news that the letters were the work of three men, one of them MT. Arthur Symons. MT. William l.. Alden, writing from London about the inter- esting controversy, says that the au- thor has so consistently made the liter orv quality of the letters prominent that She wayfaring reader. though a critic sonnected with a weekly religious paper, ought to have known that the letters uere never written by woman in love. Mir Alden adds: My own conviction is that the author is either MT. Herbert Spencer Dr. Joseph Parker or Lord kitchener but of course l may be mis- taken" May MT. Alden be forgiven his modest opinion on the subject. In addi- .,o,, to thezauestion of their authorship there has been an interesting amount of discussion about the letters themselves. For inc reader finds himself confronted with a riddle, where he had expected, ncssibly, simply and solely work of art. And one really loses sight of the literary quality in ones impatience to nluck out the heart of it's mystery. The letters are presumably written by young woman of 22 years to a lover some six months younger, and covers a period of about two years. They are written in the first nush Of womanhood when she Is happily hetrothed to the man in whom her every thought centers and

who socially, morally and intellectually seems eminently worthy of her. The in- itial letter is the first he receives from her, although by no means the first she has written to him. There are many others lying at loves dead-letter of- fice' never intended for his eyes, for they were written before he had learned to care for her The editors "Explana- tion" which in reality explains nothing at all, says in part: But one thing at least may be said as regards the princi- pal actors-that to the memory of neither of them does any blame belong. They were equally the victims of circum- stances, which came whole out of the hands of fate and remained, so far as one of the two was concerned, mys- tery to the day of her death."
 The letters are all written by the wo- man to her lover, although there are few quotations and short extracts from his letters which give shadowy image of this lover All is happiness and the utmost exuberance until suddenly, with out warning and without any assigned cause, he sewers the engagement, de- claring that their love has become crime, although without fault of hers, blindly and write an answering note of farewell. The first premonition of trouble comes with his mothers long deferred visit. This letter is one of the best in the book. She writes in part
 You told me, dearest, that I should find your mother formidable. It is true did. She is a person very much in the grand pagan style, and I think she meant to crush me. She bristled in brave old fighting figure, announcing compulsion in every line, but with all her colors lying She waited for the door to close, then said: My son has bidden me come; I suppose it is my duty.

GIRLS COLLEGE coLoRS.
The Latest Wrinkle is Simply Out of
 Sight.

From the Chicago Record.
 St Louis February 20-Young lady students of aristocratic Mary institute have adopted a plan of wearing their college colors which is very novel to say the least. So far they have succeeded in concealing it from their sisters and their mothers, and only for the naughty wind today their secret would still be sacred.
 Their college colors are red and white and the members of the senior class in planning new fads agreed to wear their colors on their stockings. One young girl boldly suggested one red and one white stocking be adopted. Her idea met with approval, and the reddest kind of red was selected as the color.
 A girl student who discussed the mat ter with a companion who had caught a glimpse of the contrast explained the plan and added that to be entirely en

Queen died, telegraphed to Grmany for 20O ermine skins, which were used to line her cloak for the opening of Parlia- nent, and which will trim her gown for the coronation.
 1t may not generally be known that Enere is a more or less orthodox cos tune for the coronation. All peeresses have to wear white gowns of satin or some other material, usually trimmed with gold, and their trains are to be of rupy velvet bordered with ermine. The t; ain of duchess is three yards on the ground, that of q marchioness two and a half yards, of countess two yards, of viscountess one and half yards and of a baron's wife one yard.

guese," For no one but a woman has such complete self-abandonment upon paper and can depict there so intimately every emotion of her own soul, and even then only the exceptional woman.
 Maurice Thompson, the author, who was best known to the public through his latest novel, Alice of Old Vim cennes,' died on February 15, and his death is a distinct loss to the literary world For he held place in literature distinctly his own, belonging to nj school and having no imitators. Though born in the North MT. Thompson came from an old Southern family and the ex- perience and knowledge he acquired in the South furnished a basis for some of his best literary work. His boyhood was spent in Georgia, and though his home was at Charlottesville, Ind, his winter months were always spent somewhere along the gulf coast. He was educated principally by tutor, and it is said that it was @ passion with him to study out of doors while a boy, and that later the material for his best works was sorted out and arranged in his mind by the light of a lonely campfire. He was edu- cated for civil engineer, but later in life studied law. During this time he wrote much and the following lines sent to w. D. Howells, introduced him to Boston and the literary world:.
 I heard the woodpecker pecking,
 1 heard the sap-sucker sing;
 I turned and looked out of my window,
 And To, it was spring.
 Later he published "Hoosier Mosaics' and "Witchery of Archery" which ap- peared in 1878 and started the craze His novel, "A Tallahassee Girl' is still read and enjoyed While MT. Thompson wrote a daal variety of StlbipptS. yet his readers love him best as the au- thor of Alice of Old yincennes." How ever, his latest work, "The King of Honey Island" which deals with the war of 1S12 will have an even greater sale, they say, than .'Alice.'

which will no doubt find many admrng readers, is Mrs. Julia Cartwright's The Painters of Florence The work is the result of recent researches and gives also a brief account of the lives and works of the chief Forentine painters whose pictures surpass the work of most Italian schools in beauty of line and grandeur of conception.
 MT. John Uri Lloyd, the author of the popular book, "Stringtown on the Pike" has offered a reward of $100 to anyone who is able to give him the name of the author of the Southern ballad, frag- ment of which appears on page 219 of his book. It begins as follows: "Oh, yas, l am Southern girl, and
 glory in the name;
 boast of it with greater pride than getting wealth and fame; enVy not the Northern girl her robes of beauty rare
 Though diamonds deck her snowy neck and pearls bespread her hair.''

master now" It is very evident that the mothers opposition is unyielding, and then comes the announcement of a truce until February, which is sug- gestive. And then the blow falls, the dark tragedy begins and she writes des- perately: Come to me! l will not un- derstand a word you have written until you come Who has been using your hand to strike me like this and why do you lend it? Oh, if it is she, you do not owe her that duty" Yet the lover never comes and she never has an explanation and after heartbreaking farewell let ter she henceforth continues to write merely to ease an aching heart, but they are not sent to him.
 As heretofore said, the literary quality of the work and what it stands for is forgotten in the vain endeavor to solve the mystery. If in reality the author had any solution in mind. If he or she did not he or she must be having a good deal of quiet amusement out of the many random conjectures which are given. One says they were written to take ad- vantage of the present boom in love let ters; no one will be deceived and the publisher will reap the benefit. Another one hints tentatively at an unacknowl- edged blood relationship and adds that these two lovers are curiously alike men, tally and physically. While third dis misses the whole question with Q wave of the hand and the observation expressed with conviction that he fell in love with another woman.' And So the discussion goes on. It seems endless, though in- teresting, something after the manner of the facination of "rhe Lady or the Tiger"
 The letters are crude in style and are lacking in pure literary value and the book is not one which has any marked enduring worth; but they possess the interest of well written novel. Most certainly written by a woman, they are marked by great tenderness and the sympathetic insight which belongs to that sex, with now and then mild sug- gestion of the "Sonnets from the Portu-
