Vacant Lot Gardeners In Omaha Harvest
~. BountIfuI Crops.
The reports on vacant lot cultivation
directed by the civic department of the
Omaha Woman's club is very gratifying.
The plan has been successful not only
in providing families with potatoes and
vegetables for use during the entire year,
but has been a means of doing away with
unsightly weeds on vacant lots. y The
gardeners are expected to turn over to the
committee the products Of one row of
potatoes in return for the seed furnished
them and up to date sc of the 1855 families
provided with seed have sent to the COM
,mittee so bushels Of nice, large potatoes,
and the committee had only supplied 81
bushels A patch was cultivated at the
expense Of the committee and this yielded
100 bushels and the committee has been
able to turn over to the county $50 BUSH
els.

NEW PUBLJCA TIOAS.

The Leopard's Spots; a Romance oi the White Mans Burden, 1S65-1900, by Thomas Dixon, Jr.; published by Dou- bleday, Page & Co.,, New York, is a strong book and one which is justly ex- citing much attention. It is receiving strikingly favorable comments from many of the leading journals of the country. It is an artistic tale of our southern states giving expression to the long silent southern feeling regard ing political events and dramatic situa- tions in the south following the close of the civil war. It deals chiefly with the reconstruction days W hen the carpet bagger had sway whether fitted to ex- ercise it or not It is an impressive book and one to command careful thought and reflection. The woes of the south in the reconstruction days are vividly. perhaps extraVagantly pie tured. as is likewise the negro problem as viewed from the intelligent southern standpoint. A charming love story is closely interwoven in the fabric and ar gument of the book, incidentally illus trating the authors purpose, while add ing greatly to the attractiveness of the volume.
 In "The Leopard's Spots there is no phrase to suggest that the writer is fighting the war over again. Certain

The greatest damage was done by smoke and water, particu larly the former. Great black volumes of it poured out from the burning bed room and blacked and blistered all of the woodwork and some of the furni. ture on the second floor. Water did the most damage on the first floor and the fine carpets were practically de stroyed.
 Officer Lippincott was on duty at the time the fire started and was unable to tell what any other members of the family might have had in the bedroom from which it could have originated He stated that his furniture was well covered by insurance.

"The Clustering of Ursula" by Clin- | ton Scollard, published by L. c. Page & | Co.,. Boston, is fascinating romance. The atmosphere is that of Florence, the Florence of the early Renaissance when
 the city was rent by rival factions and dark an dtreacherous deeds of villany
 were done in most interruptions and
 bitter struggles for the supremacy The
 Ucelli and the Neri are the rival houses
 which furnish Mr., Scollard with his
 central plot By fendish treachery-
 involving a mockery of the betrothal
 ceremony--the family of Ucceli is lured
 to the house of Neri as if to celebrate
 the burial of an aged-od fued. Sud
 denly, at the feast table, a massacre be-
 gins which leaves Andrea Ucceli the
 sole surviving male of his name. In his
 escape he is aided by the gentle Ursula,
 a ward of Neri and the Church, whose
 dream is of a return to convent life.
 Tbe rest of the story is of Andrea's struggle for vengeance and for love
 There are others too who are for re- venge on the wicked Neri and their friends Chapter follows chapter Of brigandry and fierce striving. Yet the presence of Ursula ever furnishes gentle page. Of course, in the end she is cloistered in the fair garden of one who is her love forever and day.
 Andrea the hero, has adventure af- ter adventure of the most spirited kind and many hair breadth escapes and the readers sympathies are with him and the gentle Ursula throughout the charming story, The story is more over steadfast and true in it's local col bring and historical allusons to times and events. There is glamour and beauty to the story that holds the read CTS attention throughout. The price of the book is s1.50. Copies at the Pease- Lewis company.

"The Correspondents Manual" A praxis for stenoeraphers, typewriter operators and clerks. By William F.
 Hickox. principal of the Hickox short
 hand school Copley square, Boston.
 16mo cloth, 12s pages. Lee & Shepard,
 Boston, publishers.
 The author of this excellent and use full work, MT Hickox, is an instructor
 of great experience, excellent Judgment and executive ability. He was editor of
 the American Shorthand Writer from
 1880 to 1886. the leading shorthand
 magazine during it's existence. In 1880
 he prepared the first series of lessons by
 mail ever compiled, a method since
 then widely copied and had corre
 spondence class exceeding three hum
 dred. All this time he has been noting
 the actual needs of students and office- workers, and his typewriter pamphlets of instruction have come to be of such importance that they are now published in this little work of faultless ty- pography, fine paper and neat binding Of the twenty well-presented chapters the extended list of Words of Differ ent Meanings Similarly Pronounced" is perhaps the most valuable. To gen. eral reader the entire book seems to be full of good things which any one can study with profit, and the chapter, Last Words,'' with It's sound presenta- tion of business ethics, is alone worth the securing of the book Every one having to do with shorthand or type- writing should be provided with this hand book, and it would be very wise for any business man to eX- pend the small sum necessary to pro vide each of his helpers with copy. Price 50 cents. Copies for sale at l Judas.
