THE NEW PUBLICATIONS.
SOME OF THE LATEST BOOKS
 OF THE SEASON.

The Memoirs of PauI Kruger, Dom
 Paurs Own Story-Nature and the
 Camera, by A. RadcIyRe Dugmcrc-
 Charles summers Addresses On War;
 ROiiickinS Rhy mes.
 One of the most notable new books of the day is The Memoirs Uf Paul Kruger'-Oom Paufs own story, told by himself, and recorded by Ii. C. bredell, his prIVate Secretary, and Pet GroDIer, tX-uAQer secI eteAly UI state; edited by Ii. ScioWaiter. The boJk Has been published simulIaneOusly in many countries The AE4erltan edIuon is is sued ill one handsome NUlunc, with pnotOgravure pUIttalt. by lne Century company, New iOIA, ir.c- @@.JJ net; postage 24 cents, alu .a i.:. safe D.! tne l.. r. Judd conlpa.iy. lis 1ook Is strictly autobIog. aphicai. it 4s hruger's $ own story UL one oL the most cxtraIr- dinary careers of modern tnMes, lold m a simple, direct anu vigorous way, ana it reveals even in this English transla- tion all the qualities for which the old Lion Of the Transvaal is famous. In the midst of the plain narrative of events one is continually coming upon flashes of satirIcal humOr bits oL homeiy wisdom enforced py anecdotes which suggest Abraham LlncOn, and terse sentences, sober in style but sur charged with the old mans lndigna- tion and wrath against the enemies or his country.
 The earher chapters deal with his boyhood and youth, especially with his experiences as a hunter and soldier. They furnish also an admirable narra- tive or the great trek, the toundation or the Irausvaal state, and the diff culties, domestic and foreign, through which it passed. The reader WAo IS not familiar with the details Of South A1rl- can history will find in them an excel lent summary ot the information he requires in order to unuerstand the origin of the late war This IS par ticularly true Of the events which led up to the so-called War of lndepend- ence which ended with the British dls- aster of Majuba Hill. Into the military events themselves Kruger does not en- ter.
 When he comes to the last great and Hateful struggle with England he sets forth the case of the South African Re public with great clearness, brevity and apparent justice, relying through out upon documents and events about which there can be no question. There are also bits of inside history which are of exceptional interest; on the whole, however, he prefers to base his defense upon facts which have been published to the world. This defense is most character in it's simplicity and forcefulness and most effective. Words are not minced-a spade is called a spade, lie lie-but the proprieties are never violated, the voice never raised, even in his tiercest assaults up- on his arch enemies Rhodes, Chamber lain and Milner. It is a volume which will be read throughout with profound interest.

Ginn & Co.,, Boston, publish for the International Union neatly bound and printed small volume of three hundred pages of Charles Summers addresses on War, which includes an introduction of twenty-seven pages by Edwin D. Mead, The Sumner addresses are, The True Grandeur of Nations; The War System of the Commonwealth of Nations; and The Duel Between France and Germa- ny. Charles Sumner, well remarks MT Mead, began his public life with a de- elaration of war against war. His great oration in Fremont Temple on "Phe True Grandeur of Nations" marked the most important epoch in Summers life. The 4th of July, 1S45, gave him a national and even more than national fame. Of all pleas made by American men for the rule of peace on earth, 1t is the noblest and the most comprehensive save Summers own later address on "The War System of Nations" There Is almost no argu- ment against war which these orations and their successor do not somehow make use of; and the advocate of peace in all the years returns to them and re- turns again for inspiration. The bring ing together in a single volume as is now done for the first time, of all of Summers three great addresses on war and peace, is a distinct public service; and every philanthropist and every true Philo-American will wish the vol- tune, the widest currency and infu- ence. Copies for sale by all booksellers.

It is attractively bound and printed and is numerously illustrated by J. A. Jameson.

Turney Won the Race.

The five mile foot race between
Clarence Turney and E. Hambley, of
Mt. Vernon. was run at the Driving
Park grounds Tuesday afternoon
about 5 O'Clock and there was a pretty
good crowd present to see the long
distance race. Jack Levings gave
the word that sent the boys off. and
Hambley took the lead and set the
pace for the distance, Turney trailing
all the way. The pace was not of the
killing variety and it went pretty
slow. When within 200 yards of the
mark Turney took the lead and com
menced to squirt. Hambley attempted
to follow him, but he was about all
in. Turney crossed the scratch ahead
OF his oponent about II feet and he
had considerable speed left. The
race was run in 80 minutes, and a
purse OF 1926 was contested for.

Amos Shook His Fist.

Whenever the late Amos ]. Cum
mings made a speech in congress.
which was not often, he always had q
good audience. He talked with great
vehemence on whatever subject he had
In hand and flung his arms about like
fails.
he was always furious at interrupt
tons. A few weeks before the begin
ming of the illness that proved fatal,
When he was talking John Wesley
Gaines of Tennessee, who originated
the idea of asking questions of every
mar who gets up to talk, asked him
some irrelevant question. Cummings
his fist at Gaines and roared:
You keep out of my speech"
Gaines thought Cummings intended
to jump over the desks at him and
ldn't ask another question that day.

RAIN NOT ON PROGRAM
But 1t Came and Had the Effect of
Putting a Iampner on the
Exposition Wednesday.

Against the predictions of the
weather bureau of Tuesday a stray
rain showed up this morning. ana
although it started in light the in.
dications were that it was going to be
an all day affair. The rain spoiled
the morning and afternoon program
of the street performances. and they
had to be dispensed with. 1t was SO
d~isagreeable that the bands could not
get out to play. By noon, however,
the rain ceased. and the Woonsocket
band got out and livened up things
somewhat. a rain at a stime like
this is IN of the most unwelcome
things imaginable. for little a be
done while the moisture remains in
SO much evidence. The air was de-
cidedly chilly and everything was
about IS uncomfortable as possible.
With better weather on tap the next
seven days of the exposition ought to
be hummers, for some good advertis-
ing has been sent over the state of
the additional attractions that were
secured only a few days before the
opened.

Apples md c~urrants.

If the liver is sluggish, refusing to
work, so that the bile flow is deficient
and so all fats remain u~ndigested, the
eating of either apples or an album
dance of currants will effect a mag
ical change. The jaded organ will
be stimulated; all the digestive juices
act; the food is all absorbed, and soon
the appetite cries for lore. Therefore
the apple and the currant have been
called appeliZers because they are the
means of bringing appetite to those in
search of it. The apple being in sea-
son longest has the usual claim to
favor as an appetizer, but the currant
is almost as deserving of the claim.
But it has more waste in the shape of
fiber and skin than is found in the
apple, the proportion in the currant
being over 4ls per cent. while in the
apple it is Only 10 per cent

Milwaukee officials We're Late.

The exposition management was
somewhat disappointed Tuesday
evening by the non-arrival of some
officials of the Milwaukee road. as
they We're expected to reach Mitchell
in time in the evening to attend the
corn palace. The party was made
up of Ros well Miller president of the
board of directors, John D. Rookie
fellr. Jr.. a member of the board, a..
j.. Earring and several Others. The
train was due to reach Mitchell at 8
O'Clock, but owing to a delay out of

until l O'Clock in the night. The
train. which consisted of three hand
some cars, went east Wednesday

Floating Kitchen Gardens.

Among the many strange craft that
ply up and down the rivers around
New York may frequently see one
that looks like a back yard atloat. It
IS a large platform. Enclosed all the
way around with a picket fence. Their
are gates in the fence, and to keep up
it's resemblance to an ordinary inclo-
sure of a suburban garden there are
green leaves to be seer within. These
floating yards r used by wholesale
fruit dealers. 1t is found that bananas,
pineappies and other tropical fruits
spoil sc easily in hot weather that they
must not be packed closely even for
an hour. So they are put on these
floats in such a way that the air can
reach them from all sides, and the
trips on the rivers are made as long
as possible.
