The Sign of Triumph.

Sheppard Stevens. author of II am the
King" has written this new romance OF
the Children's Crusade. a crusade which
lost to the homes of France and Germany
nearly a thousand children. No event
shows the strong religious feeling and su-
perstition of the middle ages better than
this, and il is strange il has not been USED
before in the theme for an historical mover:
There were three different armies OF
children, two from Germany and one from
France. where the movement originated.
This story takes the French children IN
their march to the sea. where they met the
fate of being sold into slavery. Mr.. stew
ems has a subject OF rare possibilities LOT

making the most of them. Perhaps ii is
too much TO expect that he should. A
Merejkowski or a Sienkiewicz might make
a world classic out of such theme, but
the mere romancer can make out of 1t only

William Penn.

The eighth volume of Appleton's His
toric Lives series is the biography OF
William Penn. by Augustus c. Buell.. The
first half of the volume is an intimate ac-
count of PENIS life while the latter half is
an excellent history of early Pennsylvania.
The latter part contains extracts from
PENIS correspondence with the provin-
cial secretary, James Logan, between the
time of PENIS return TO England in 1IO2
till his death in 1712. This correspondence
is interesting as a journal of history, as
an index to the character of Penn and as
a record of the gradual decay of his mind
1t belongs to the American Philosophical
Society and is one of the most complete
and conservative bodies of correspondence
extant on any subject. This volume is one
of the most attractive and complete of the
series. d. Appleton & Co., New York.

A large measure of the sensational drama,
lightened and refined somewhat by allu-
sions to Runic legends, Greek literature
and medieval history strong "reminiscences
of Sherlock Holmes in the PALMER days
and the mystic glamour of hypnotism and
clairvoyance are the principal ingredients
of this thrilling tale, with a few murders
by noblemen of high degree thrown in for
good measure. 1t opens with a horribly
tragic prologue and hurries the reader
