FROM DEATH TO LIFE.
(The Abbey Press.)
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Clothed in the garb of a story this
book contains some remarkable state
ments.
Since thoughts have been thought
without brain, it is you who thinks,
not your brain. You are a soul, but
you have two minds and two bodies,
two subjects so to speak.
You may wander temporarily out of
your body of flesh and act indepen-
IDENTIFY of it at a distance: hence you
will survive it after the final separa-
ton.
Your transcendental organism is the
biological invisible body, in your body
of flesh. 1t is the souls immortal orr
ganism, being held together by self
consciousness.
Telepathy, unable to explain all oc-
cult phenomena, and mechanism, as
well as spiritualism proper, establish
immortal existence The question, how
ever, is not Am / immortal2" but
How shall / continue to exist? Shall
it be death or lifc?"
Death is a condition of separation
from, life is a condition of union with,
God. Regeneration is the passing from
death in sins and trespasses unto life
from glory to glory by believing in
Christ.
1t is abstruse. bewilderlng. Those
who like this sort Of thing will like
this book.

A MODERN ANTAEUS.
BY the Author of AN Eng
Hshwoman's Love Letters"
Doubleday, Page & Coz

We all owe. the author of "An Eng
Iishwoman's Love Letters" grudge
for making us believe that they were
not the products of the authors imagl-
nation, but were what they purported
to be- This book is intended to be
novel, 1t seems to be a slow-dragglng
story of rather commonplace IDEAS,
though the prospectus announces that
it is a strong novel of character and
setting of modern Engllsh country
life.
In mythology Antaeus, a Greek, was
the son Of Earth and Water. The
| modern Antaeus is a child of nature.
His nickname was Tramp on account
of his youthful wanderings. Tramp s
character, supposing one has the pa
thence to follow it through the book,
is found to be clean and wholesome.
He is lf-sacrificing and brave.
OF course the book shows the same
skill exhibited in the Love Letters of
an Englishwoman. But when this art
of developing character is the chief ana
almost the sole purpose of novel,
those who like to get amusement and
entertainment out of book, hnd 1t
slow and dull. There will be people
who will appreciate this book. Possibly
some enthusiasts will be able to have
raptures over it.
1t is not, Of course, a stupid book.
Whether it is entertaining, whether it
is a novel to be classed as success
full or not, it has qualities that de-
mand the attention of the literary
world. 1t would seem to a good many
readers that there is ample material
in the book for a great novel, but that
the faulty method of construction or
an excessive zeal for character delin-
cation has defeated in a measure the
success of the book.

a GUMBO LILY, AND
OTHER STORIES.
By Stella Gilman.
(The Abbey Press.)


Miss Gilman is, first and foremost,
a young woman of the West. having
been a resident of South Dakota since
its territorial and pioneer days. In
this collection of short stories, she
gives us the benefit Of her years Of
observation of Western life and West
ern growth. "A GumbO Lily" from
which the volume takes it's title. is
a faithful narrative Of the frontier
setting forth that phase of American
life which is fast disappearing before
the inroads Of civilization. The re-
naming tales are, for the most part,
plain and wholesome sketches Of ev-
ery-day life in South Dakota, and il is
to be hoped that they may receive the
same appreciation from the public
which was accorded her former book,

ALEssoN FOR DAWSON.

The town of Shellman will soon pc
gin the erection of seven Thousand
dollar school house, which is TO be
built by private subscription. Surely
there is a lesson in the laudable enter
prise and public spiritedness manifest
ed in this movement which Dawson
would do well to emulate.
Sheilman has population OF about
500 people, while Dawson numbers its
inhabitants at $500; Shellman, with
about one-seventh the population OF
Dawson, is going to erect hand
some institution of learning, while
Dawson contents itself with an old and
weather-beaten hulk which it pleases
to call a school house, but which
strangers designate as "Dawson's Dis
grace" And it is disgrace, a shame
full reflection, on Dawson's educational,
or rather lack of educational, interest.
Islt to be ever thus Will the citl-
zens of Dawson continue to procrasti-
nate ia a matter which deserves lmme-
date attention ? How much longer
shall we tolerate that which is an eye
sore to all, blot on the public spirit
edness of our citizens and a monu-
ment to the lack of the towns enter

NEWS AND VIEWS.

Chicago society has a new idea,
which may become a fad. 1t is the
''oxygen party" 1t was introduced
by Baron Something or-other from
Germany. The guests all take oxygen,
which makes them brighter and live
her than they are normally. 1t may
be rem ark ed, by the way, that cham
payne, or even plebeian whisky, IN
moderation, has been known to have
similar effect.
F. E. Mckinley, cousin of the presi-
dent, has been turned down in his de-
sire for appointment as secretary OF
Oklahoma. He appears to have made
a mistake in not being related to the
Hanna branch of the administration.
Reports from 137 railroads show
earnings for February, 1901 over the
same month in 1900, of nearly IA pc"
cent. This will probably call for
about % per cent more water in their
stock.
1t is estimated that every Boer kill
ed in the South African war has cost
England $4,000.

The Governor Got a Kiss.

From the Marietta Journal
At the reception at Senator Clay's
residence on Friday afternoon, when
quite a number of ladies were being
introduced to Governor Gambler, one
young lady was introduced who is the
daughter of distinguished and la
mented Georgian who has crossed
over the river of DEATH when Gov.
Gambler remarked: 81 esteem the mem
DRY of your father so reverently as one
of my truest friends that | am almost
tempted to kiss you for him." The
young lady, beautifulin person, cultur-
ed in mind, keen in repartee, replied,
"WhY not kiss me for myself?" To
her sudden surprise the governor
said, 81 will" and suited the action
to the word. The young lady says
now that she does not allow any one
but governors to kiss her, not even
United States senators.

Even the republicans are becoming
somewhat alarmed over the tremen-
dous consultations that are going on
all over the country, and are anxious TO
check them by all means in their pow
er. 1t is said there have recently been
conferences to which the president
was a party, and as result the treas

them not to let too much of their mon

these great consultations that are fol-
lowing each other so fast may or may
not be successful. In any case, they
all have an immense amount of water
in them. which the public is buying
and on which it relies for dividends
Hundreds of millions are being Heated
in securities that have no solidity nor

TALK is ALL THEY GOT.

The Cuban delegates have come, have
seen and returned home. They ar
rived in Washington last week, called
on the president and were entertained
by him at dinner, and saw Secretary
Root. who discussed the object OF their
visit with them. Then they prepared to
start home. This in substance is the
story of their visit. The president sim
plv "iollied" them. With the tact and
smootbness of which he is past mas
ter he welcomed them and made them
feel that they were the finest things
that ever happened, then passed them
on leaving them scarcely aware of the
fact that he had not said single word
that would meet their hopes. Secre-
tary Root, however, was not quite SO
sparing in his facts.
AS all sensible men have known all
along, the delegates had no idea that
the president could modify the Ian
puage of the Platt amendment, howey-
er grossly unfair it might be. They
realized quite as well as anyone else
that this was a law only to be changed
bv the power that made it. w hat they
really wanted to confer about was the
Interpretation that was to be put on
its verbiage. The present administra-
tion has a well deserved reputation for
the fneness of the constructions 1t
it can put on laws when it is in a mind
to do So The Cubans especially want
ed two things; first, an assurance that
the United States would not step in
anytime it felt like it, under the pro-
viso giving it the right to intervene,
and overthrow any government that
might be established; and, second, an
assurance that Cuba would receive
commercial privileges either by means
of a reciprocity treaty or some other
arrangement
Secretary Root was careful, it is
said. to commit himself to nothing
more than a plentiful flow of language
on either of these questions. The only
advantage of the trip here will proba'
bly, be to put the trippers in gooo

A MASS OF BLACKENED RUINS.
Jacksonville, Fla, Has Been Practically
Swept From the Earth.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA, May T.
The most disastrous fire in the
history of this city began yesterday
shortly after noon in small factory,
from a defective wire according TO The
best belief, and burned for nearly ten
hours. In that time property dam
age estimated from 100000 TO $50

According to the city map l6O BLOCKS
were burned, many OF them In tne
heart of the business and residence
section. The estimate OF houses TO
the block is ten, hence 1000 OF them
went up in smoke.
Many of the finest public and prl-
vate buildings were destroyed, includ-
ing hotels, theatres, churches and res
licences.
The casualties cannot be estimated
tonight. That there were several

Among them was the fire chief, VINO

The mayor at late hour, stated
that he estimated the loss at $50, ooO,-
600 and that 10000 to 10000 people
were homeless.
Alta. m. the situation is one thatap
proaches desolation in large section
of the city. The burned district
stretches from Burbridge street on the
north to the St. John river on the
south. a distance of quite two miles.
The width of the desOlated area is
sixteen blocks. Within this space

A Suggestion to the Legislature.

From the Ringgold New South
If the legislature is not too busy
when it reconvenes in October we
would suggest that that body pay a
little attention to the pistol toters.
The habit should be broken up, and
we sincerely hope that the legislature
will pass law making it felony for
a person to carry pistol without Il
license A law like this would soon
put stop to the habit, and then we
would not have so many murderers in
this state.
