This is the story of the educated SON Of
an uneducated and unsympathetio multi
millionaire. The son, a dreamer, had i'm
bibed certain ideas concerning his duties
to his fellow-men and had various plans
for the betterment Of mankind His father,
much disappointed, turned cold shoulder
to the sons schemes, but the latter pro-
ceeded to engage in a manufacturing en-
terprise, with intent to put himself in touch
with the workmen and improve their con-
dition. He did not come out of this under
taking with flying colors His partner, a
tricky person, victimized him with the
greatest ease he was in love with woman
of his own class, but became entangled
with a pretty factory girl, his open friend
ship SO compromising her that he resolved
to marry her. She. noble girl, seeing that it
was a sacrifice on his part, determined not
to permit 1t, but to go TO the Philippines
as an army nurse and leave the coast clear
for the other woman. None of the person
ages in the tale is especially interesting.
and the story as whole is not convincing.

Six stories by Paul Bourget are included
in the collection to which Monica" the
longest, gives the name To read any of
these stories, so well are they translated,
is actually to feel the musical sound Of
their composition, smooth. so softly
flowing, so agreeable is the harmonious
movement of the words and the thoughts.
The revelations of the many and varying
natures which appear I'm these stories is
exquisitely made. seemingly without effort
on the part of the author. He turns the
ray Of his insight upon them, and there
they stand, flooded with a magic light,
pulsing with vitality, transparent as crys-
tai. They are there to be loved, detested,
tolerated, pitied. adored, punished or par
doned. Whatever emotion the author sum-
mons from the reader that emotion answers
to his call. His fancy, his grace. his SEN
sibility, his power and his keen discrimina-
ton invest his creation with the charm and
the vividness of life. The translator of
these stories is William Marchant. Charles

While the author of this notice does not
comprehend this scientific treatise upon a
very familiar, yet very difficult subJect-the
control of railway locomotive sparks, yet
the book suggests some valuable thought.
One is the fact that there is no calling in
life so dangerously liable to intellectual
stagnation as that of college
professor. He is always special
list, deals with immature minds and
is slave to routine. AS year after year
his students must be taken over the same
ground the effect upon the teacher is most
detrimental. The work becomes mechanical,
and without constant vigilance to prevent
il be vegetables and stagnates. How shall
he get out of this most dangerous rut? One
way is by research and the publication of
books, another is by public speech. Now,
Prof w. f. NJ. Goss has wisely published
this highly technical but, to experts, most
interesting volume. 1t is beautifully printed
and illustrated.
The other thought is the subject itself
what a world of damage they do and how
necessary that they be controlled. How
many farmers barns and hay stacks as well
a. forests have they set on fire. What vast
sums railways have had to pay for damages
done by sparks Smoke and sparks! If they
could only be brought under control what
a world of discomfort could be spared to
cities and individuals. Prof. Goss is one OF
the honored professors in Purdue Univer-
sity We are glad to observe that he con-
fines himself to locomotive sparks. Did the
good professor ever read John G. Saxe's
s'Bless me this is pleasant, this riding on
a rail?'' And especially that verse where the
ancient maiden-lady anxiously remarks
"Isn't there great danger from these wicked
sparks?'' and the reply of her mischievous
neighbOr? ID. +. BALDWIN.

"Morchester," story of American
ciety, politics and affairs, by Charles
Datchet, is declared to be the name also of
q city of considerable Importance in the
Middle States The two leading charac-
tiers are Theodore Marshall who succeeds
to his fathers factory, and who, because
of his ideal of manliness, makes enemies
where he should make friends. and Miss
Ellerton, who was born to more money than
she has need of, and undertakes to spend it
to help others in business. She assists Mar
shall until he discovers that she is the per-
son who is lending him money Then he
refuses further aid and keeps away from
her lest he might fall in love with her when
he really wants to marry another woman.
lie Mark Is an attorney with many irons in
the fire-promoting, scheming and what not
poses the promoter of public improve
ments and enterprises to build up his own
fortune. He schemes to ruin Marshall by
inducing him to borrow money on his fac
tory during the industrial paralysis Of 1894.
coterie of railroad officers and specu-
lators are in the syndicate which raises the
money for the mortgage. 1t is piratical
combination of railroad officials, bank Off
GERS and senator to ruin young man
and an industry. Consequently the book
does not present fair representation OF
the methods of business men, OF the other
persons in the tale Mr.. Churchill is a re-
former, always assailing capitalists and
corporations, but who comes to grief when
his discarded wife confronts him at party.
Hon. Felix Mclean is a politician of the
city variety who gets to be senator for bus
mess considerations chiefly. Mrs Netherly
is of those ambitious women who are
always helping public charities and taking
an interest in everybodyS affairs, but al
ways succeeding in putting people in the
wrong places. Out of his material Mr..
Datchet weaves highly interesting story,
showing much above the average cleverness
on his part and certain familiarity with
affairs. But while the story is interesting
and entertaining it Is not a fair portrayal
of American life because the authors best
society is not half good his politics is en-
tirely disreputable and his affairs are COM
binations of men to overreach. A true por-
trayal of American society, politics and
affairs might not be as entertaining as the
counterfeits of "Morehester," but 1T would
present a larger proportion of decent peo-
pie. G. p. Putnam's Sons, New York.
