JANUARY SMART SET.

THE Governor" by Guy
Wetmore Carryl. the novelette, with
which the January number of The
Smart Set opens, is full of power and
fascination. The plot is absolutely
new, and the strikingly dramatic sit
uations are handled by the author with
a mastery of art that holds the reader
absorbed from opening TO climax. This
is the strongest novelette, that has APP
peared in The Smart Set II is a SPLEEN
did piece of fiction.
Following this comes a delightful
contrast in the short story by Justus
Miles Forman, The Young Person
Next Door," which is dainty and anus
ing; while its successor, "The Shadowy
Past" by James Branch Cabell, is a
skilful psychological study, and equal

variety as noteworthy as II is rare and
pleasing.

The effect OF German ambassador
Won Hollenben's recall on the Venezue-
Ian deliberations will be watched with
considerable interest. The general i'm
preston seems to prevail that Ger
many is TIE aggressive factor in this
trouble. A faction in Great Britain is
highly incensed over cooperation with
Germany in matter which may
threaten the indefinite Anglo-Saxon
alliance. Our administration is keep
ing very quiet, evidently satisfied with
the status of the affair. 1t now remains
to DE seen whether Germany having
tested the Monroe Doctrine is prapar

The plan OF President James OF
Northwestern University to hold next
June an international celebration OF
the bicentennial Of John Wesley's birth
brings out the fact that in no country

appears that Notwithstanding the strict
Methodist doctrines and the generally
supposed liberaiity OF western relig-
ious ideas. the church has made its
most distinct gains in the Western
States and particularly in the vicinity
of Chicago
