To make long story short, Kate
finds that living with the man whom

almost hesitates to open it. But far

lead one to suppose, it is merely an in
tereSting chapter or two out of the life
of newspaper girl in New York, writ
ten by herself. 1t is the tale of a
poseur, a young man VINO does not like
work and SO he studies few books on
socialism and equality and the evils
of our industrial system, so-called, and
then, without actual experience and
with no capital save pretty trick OF
turning a phrase, he goes down into
the slums and makes red-hot speeches
against millionaires and corporations,
He is for reform for everybody but
himself. AT home he ill-treats his hard

spends his time in leading astray hon

per woman, gets upon his trail, and
first impressed by his cheap eloquence,
she soon comes to understand him and
realize the painful discrepancy between
his doctrines and his life. 1t is pitt
full. painful little story, but well told;
indeed, the writer has the knack OF
making her characters live before us.
The author is a Southern girl and this
is what she says when the discussion
turns upon slavery:

CALEB POWERS MUST

Again Is He Convicted of Completely

in the Murder of Gov. GoebeI.
GEORGETOWN, KY, Aug. 30.-The
third trial of ex-Secretary of State
Caleb Powers for completely in the
murder of Gov. William Goebel, in
January, 1900, closed today with the
penalty of hanging for the prisoner,
who had been in the penitentiary for
three years on life sentence. The YER
dict of the jury was guilty, and the
punishment of DEATH"
Powers sat unmoved while his at
torneys asked for time to make a mo-
ton for new trial. Arthur Goebel,
the brother of the victim. broke down
from the strain on hearing of the YER
dict Of guilty: Goebel is prominent
merchant at Cincinnati, and he spent
his time and fortune in the prosecution
Of those accused of being in a con-
spiracy to kill his brother.
Powers has been convicted twice be-
fore, this being the third trial in which.
the jury brought in a verdict of guilty
against him. 1t was on his motion
that he secured the new trials each
time. This verdict has caused great
excitement among the friends of other
defendants in these cases.
Special Judge Robbins this after
noon overruled a motion for the grant
ing Of a new trial to Powers. He
then passed sentence of death on Pow
ers. After a declaration of the pris-
oner, Il am not guilty, judge" the
court fixed Nov. Is as the day for the
execution. Attorneys for the defend
ant secured the granting Of an appeal to
the Kentucky court of appeals, and If
successful they may try to have the
United States supreme court to take
it under consideration. Powers was
Immediately removed to the Scott
county Jail, to be held there pending
the appeal of his case.
The prosecution charged that the
shot which killed Goebel just after he
entered the state house grounds at
Frankfort was fired from the window
Of Powers Office. Powers was on a
train on the way to Louisville at the
time, and asserted that he was going
to help arrange for an excursion of
Western Kentucky citizens to the
state capital to protest against the
legislatures settling the contest, then
pending, by seating Goebel as gov
ernor.
Powers never denied that he aided
in organizing the mountain armies
which went to Frankfort at the time
the election returns were first can
vassed and again just before the as
sassination. He maintained, however
that tthe men, though armed, were
merely exercising the right of petition

The One Woman-By Thomas Dixon Jr.
Doubleday, Page 81 Co., publishers
For sale by ST Paul Book and Sta
.tionery company.
Those who read 1.-THE Leopard's
Spots and knows that Mr.. Dixon has
written another book were prepared for
something unusual from his pen. Alb
solutely different from his first book,
the present one is almost as strong In
it's way. Like many another modern
novelist he writes not SO much to tell
a story as to strike at opinions or doc
trines which he regards as false, and
the story is simply the medium by
which he carries his point. In this
book Mr.. Dixon attacks socialism and
in so doing he hits also many modern
"ologies" and "isms." To find out
what he thinks of socialism it is only
necessary to quote the following re-
marks which he puts into the mouth
of one of his characters:
This maggot Of socialism in your
brains is the trouble. 1t is the mark
fleeing from self-reliant individual life
into the herd for help. You call it
brotherhood,' the solidity of the race
Sentimental mush! It's stampede
back to the animal herd out of which
a powerful manhood has been evolved.
This idea is destroying your will, your
brain, your religion, and will finally
sap the moral fiber of your character.
1t is the greatest delusion that ever be-
wildered the mind of poet or sentiment
talist. Socialism takes the tenn
per out of the steel fiber of character.
1t makes a man f1abby. 1t is the ear
mark of racial -degeneracy. The man
of letters who is poisoned by it never
writes another line worth reading;
the preacher who hampers with it ends
a materialist or atheist; the philan-
thropist bitten by it, from just a plain
fool, develops a mailman; while the
homebuilder turns free-lover and rake
under its teachings"
The story is of Frank Gordon, a
popular preacher who has built up a
come crowds of the unwashed, as well
as of the elect, every Sunday to hear
him preach his sensational sermons.
He has that most dangerous of all
gifts, an eloquence which carries his
audience fairly off it's feet and which
sweeps all before him. When the book
opens he has just preached one of his
powerful sermons which leaves him
tired in body and mind, and he goes
home to jealous wife who scolds
him because of his popularity and
nags him beyond endurance and he
rushes out into the dark and spends
half the night wandering about New
York. Just about this time he passes
through two crises; he meets Kate
Ransom, and he becomes converted to
socialism. He dreams great dreams of
a wonderful religion of humanity with
out dogma, form or creed, in which
no man is above his fellow and for
which he will build a white marble

Mary MacLane, the untamed genius OF
Butte, has put her soul into words

Friend, Annabel Lee" sent out yester-
day from the publishing house of Her
bert S. Stone & Co., of Chicago. Mary
has learned good deal since she wrote
her rhapsody about her toothbrush and
the backwards of Butte. She has been
to Boston, where, let us hope, she has
imbibed some of the culture she stood
so sorely in need of. The mere fact
that Mary went to Boston shows that
she possessed taste and discrimination
and felt desire to rise. She also
went to Chicago, but we will let that
pass.
The September magazines are the
finest samples of magazine making
ever issued from American publishing
houses. The illustrations in some of
the best are quite good enough to
frame and hang on the wall. In fact,
those persons are wise who cut out
the pictures from the magazines they
do not intend to preserve, and make a
collection in this way of portraits of
contemporary celebrities. AS to the lit
erary quality of their contents as much
cannot be said of all of them. The fic-
ton is notably light ana or character
to encourage unknown writers to try
for fame. The suggestion once made
to publish magazine devoted exclu-
sively to the articles and stories which
have been rejected, might not be such
a bad idea after all. If it became a
success it might at least serve to bring
some magazine editors down peg or
two. However, as the little pink slip
says, Because your work is not avail
able for US is no reason to suppose
it lacks merit or might not suit the
taste of other editors" So hope springs
eternal in the writer's soul and he con-
tinues his collection Of printed slips
which at least serve to make a connec-
ton between the aspiring writer and
the literary world which is some salts
faction to those whose bread and but
ter does not actually depend upon the
results of his brain labor.
