Goes in Law"

'Foes in Law" by Rhoda Broughton
From the Macmillan Company New
York.
A verv commonplace story of English
life. 1t IS almost devoid of plot, but rich
in verbiage. There is but little in the
story TO ommend 1t. The story deals
with the never ceasing hostility of his
slsters-in-law, one of whom IS a descend
ant Of a proud, aristocratic and ancient
English family, who resists the marriage
Of an only brother to the daughter of a
woman of the middle class against whose
reputation the gleme of scandals had
waged its scOurging breath. Marriage
draws the lives of the two women to-
gether under one roof. where daily inter
course but augments the animus be-
tween them. The author has tried to
enliven the story by all lily chosen ro-
nance between Miss Trent and the curate

''Po' White Trash" and other one-act
dramas, by Evelyn Greenleaf Suther-

world nine one-aet dramas. Six of these
have already tHrn produced on the STAGE
In the past three years by Salvini. Wood
ruff, eFarnum and others, at matinees or
parts of 4 double bill in more elaborate
entertainments
The drama "Po' White Trash, is an
ideal characterization Of the Ignorant
white classes # Georgia, and has c utter
parts in most of the Southern states.
There is an elegant touch of pathos in
the cireumscribed lives of the poorer
white people OF the South. who. feeling
their superiority over the igroran2
packs are Vet ostracised by their more
favored white neighbcIs. The characters
IN the play are well drawn. ana with
good cast can be given very forcibIe

WINTER SLEEP.


The ancient earth is still
Heavy with winter sleep;
And as man grown rich
Delights in memories
OF his old poverty.
He gees himself, in dream,
In tattered gabardine, ft1s. ses> --1
Bereft of all his wealth,
Naked before the stars,
Asking an aims of heaven.
And, masquerading thus,
He thinks with secret joy
OF his rich treasure house
Heaped up with precious ore

And pageantry of spring.

WHEELMEN FAVOR BUFFALO.
Proposition TO Gather In the Pam
American City.

At the annual meet of the board of
officers of the New York state division,
League of American Wheelmen, held in
New York City, December 10, 1900, a reso-
luton was adopted requesting the dele
gates from the New York State Division
to the national assembly of the L. a w.
10 use their utmost endeavors at the an
nual meeting of the assembly, which will
be held this year in Philadelphia, Pa,
on Feb. Is, to have Buffalo selected
as the place for holding the annual meet
OF the league next summer
1t is believed that If the meet is hell
in Buffalo during the Pan-American Ex-
position, the cheap railroad fares, and
the desire on the part of the cyclists ia
visit the exposition and Niagara Falls
VII result in attracting a larger attend
ance of members than has ever been
known in the history of the organization.
The grand possibilities that Buffalo offers
during the summer of 1901, for a success
full and well attended meeting cannot be
paralleled by any other city in the
country.

Troubles with Our Beer.

The chief complaint against the Amer
lean brewers, writes E. S. Martin in
Harper's Weekly, however. is not that
they don't use good materials, but that
they don't give their beer time. Persons
who have read the anti-alcoholic school
books, or have acquired knowledge of
brewing from other sources, say that
public will drink any beer that is Offered,
rush their beer to the market before it
is ripe, thus turning their capital over
quicker and increasing profit Maybe in
spection would cure this evil. too, and
if it did it would protect the conscien-
tIous brewers and help them to meet the
competition of the less deserving.

"RaIph MnrIoXye"

Ralph MarlOwe'' is the unadorned a.
Tie of the new novel that the Saa IfieId
uDhshlng Company OF Akron. o. have
Just brought out. 1t is an Ohio story OF
an ONO man. The author. DR.. James
San Naylor. IS. O. Lapius. - has hoan
known to the newspaper public for y
NUMBER OF years as writer of acoanta I,,a
verse and fiction. However, this is his
hrst real venture between covers. and a
happy venture it is.
Ralph Marlowe' is a ,,nio,7e s+or, r.
as romantic; yet it is realism. The scene
Is laid in the hill country of southeastern
Ohio. The plot is romantic. complicated
and intensely interesting; and, best of all
out OF the ordinary. The characters are
drawn from life, and so well drawn that
on finishing the book one looks 1non
them as Notwithstanding The
authors style is vigorous, crisp and
clear; no pictures of persons or places
are needed to help out the readers imag-
iration.
ralph Marlowe'' is like, and vet total
" unlike. David Harum,'' 'Eben Hold
en-" and other books of that class. Most
books of the kind depend upon the &c
centricities and individuality Of one char
acter to make them popular. DR.. Naylor
has been prodigal in this respect. No
less than five or six eccentrfcs, all dis
tinct, all worthy of considera ton, figure
on the pages of his novel DR.. Barwood,
a raw-edged, gruff old village physician,
an honest, honorable, lovable old chap;
Jep Tucker, a loquacious and incorrigible
yarn spinner; Temp Mutt, suffering
oddly; Len order, a volatile drummer,
and his ever-present buttonhole bouquet;
Sam Clark. the telegrapher, etc. The
story should be dramatiZed; it would be
Irresistible.
But the work is not all froth by any
means. There is a deep undercurrent
of moral philosophy. Questions are rats-
ed, and left open, that set the reader TO
thinking. But the author does no preacn-
ing. All in all, it is an even' "ell- lT-
anced work. Dr. Naylor had story
to tell, and has told it well. The book
