Tuesday
AS has been stated heretofore in the
Morning News. DR.. Williams will not
return to Trinity Church. He himself
has made an explanation of his posi-

what work he will engage in. 1t has
been suggested that he will again be
made a presiding elder, position
which he held for some time with dis
tinction and benefit to the conference.
This course, however, is by no means
certain, and owing to throat affec-
ton, he may withdraw from the con-
ference for a number of years in the
hope of building up his voice.
The other pastors of the city will
probably be returned. Rev. Isaac

The Bindweed. BY Nellie K. Blissett.
New York: The Mann-Vynne Pub
fishing Company. Cloth, price, 81 so.
History records few more romantic,
tragic stories than that of King Alex
ander and Queen Draga of Servia.
Alexander was the great-grandson of
swineherd who raised himself to
royalty: Draga was a woman of the
people who climbed to the highest po-
sition in the land by sheer exercise of
wit and ambition. Popular opinion is
to the effect that she was not a good
woman. However that may be, her
romantic life and tragic taking-off af-
ford abundant material for a thrilling
story. Miss Blissett. who is familiar
with the life, politics, manners and
customs of the Balkan states, has writ
ten the tragedy of Alexander and ORA
ga into a novel of SURPRISING dramatic
interest. 1t takes the reader up to
and through the bloody scenes i'm the
royal palace when the King and Queen
were butchered by the army officers
who should have been loyal. The
story of the career of the Inflated
Queen, who rose to her position from
shop girl, does not offer an example
to be commanded or emulated, but it
is one full of human interest.
