PUBLICATION NOTES

hunters think. The Greatest of
These" by Agnes Morley Cleveland,
illustrates with fidelity the Damon and
Pythias feeling between cowboys and
ranchmen in the west and southwest.
Jane Wade. in her splendid serial,
"The Romance of Private Secretary"
brings to the narrator an abrupt awak-
ening of a silent partnership in the
oppression of child life in the big mills.
Love and the Dancing Bear" by
Emery Pottle, is pathetic story of the
privations of two young girls, but has
a bright touch of humor which relieves
the story and leaves the reader hap
pier for it's perusal. "The Summer
Girl at Play" beautiful series of
drawings by Malcolm Strauss, repro
duced in tint, is a special feature Of
this summer number.
That Everybody's Magazine really
has the biggest SCOOP of the era in
Thps. w. Lawsons STORY of Amalga-
mated is abundantly shown by the
first instalment of the series proper
which is in the August number. The
foreword was portentous with prom
Uses of startling disclosures. The
initial chapters introduce the secret
organization Of Standard Oil and its
actual master, who is a person almost
unknown to the public 1t is Won
derful picture Mr.. Lawson gives of the
huge business machine which has it's
headquarters at rs Broadway, New
York, and he paints, for the first time
in his real colors, the man he declares
to be the greatest business genius of
the period, Henry H. Rogers. Then,
with brutal directness, he describes
how in dividing the profits Of the
Amalgamated deal the biggest finan-
ciers in Wall Street were tricked and
deceived like the veriest crowd of
tyros. It is the most sensational in
stance of the double cross in modern
finance.
The unusual power and vividness Of
Mr.. Lawson's writing would attract at
tentiOn to subject-matter less import
ant than the tremendous financial
tragedy he has set out yet to give to
the world. And it is impossible not
to be impressed by the earnestness OF
the man in depicting the methods of
the great monopoly. His disclosures
can hardly fail to create a sensation
which, as the other instruments ap-
pear, will be full of menace to the
fragrant Juggling with money and
honor which apparently goes on in
! financial centers Under the stimulus
! Of these extraordinary articles the

was sold out few days after issue, a
gain of $4,000 over the preceding

Der for August is simply marvel OF
modern magazine making. In past
years McClure's has made great
record with it's fiectiOn numbers but
the issue of this year surpasses all
Others In both text and illustration
it fixes thestandard of excelleice The
stories, without exception, are gems Of
their kind and serve admirably to
illustrate how far the American short
story has been perfected. The num-
Der opens with a novelette, of child
life by Frances Hodgson Burnett,
whose Little Lord Fauntleroy" has
been generally voted the most wonder
full child story ever written. This Is
the story of little girl. and to it Mrs.
Burnett has brought all the charming
fancy of her earlier efforts 1t is most

Der the Mcclure fiction writer's appear
to the best advantage with a collec-
ton Of rafting stories, rattlingly told.
"A Tempered Wind" by o. Henry, is
concerned with the humorous expert
ences of two country takers on Wall
Street; how they protected the "shorn
lambs" and went back to IAN honest
living" 1.-THE Coming of the Maestro"
is the story of thrilling adventure in
the Philippines, by James Hopper. It
is most wildly realistic, full OF the
rich life and color Of the tropical
Orient, with a thread of pretty TO
nance running through it. The num-
Der is not all fiction although "the
story is always the thing in Nc
Clure's." Lincoln Steffens considers
political conditions in another great
state in his Enemies Of the Republic
series, giving to fact all the interest
Of fiction. This time he discusses
illinois: A Triumph Of Public Opin-
ion," where, after an eight year politi.
cal war, the republican party has been
brought to represent the people. Here
he finds = republican parallel to demo

be to decide that. as Colonel Roosevelt has made

do to ratify the action of the Republicans
at Chicago and give him second nomination.
They might just well do that, and all

Mr. Shayne talked with the President to-day

the organization of large number of these

these bond deals, is trying explain them in such
n way to satisfy the financial element 20 which
he looks for the support Of his candidacy. There
are two degrees of vice. Those who take the
first degree yield to temptation. but retain con-
science. The second degree is conferred upon those
proud Of their victousness. Mr.. Cleveland seems
to he aspiring to the highest honOrs of the second
degree He is proud of his part in the bond transac
