Births have been so numerous In the

Billy Smathers, the animal man, has begun
to lose count of them. A little American

Black Diamond, the big bull bison, Is its

jealous of it that the animal man doesn't
know whether to christen it Johnny or Julia.
This will add a fifth bison t o the three cows

Womans Trade Union League. Like
Dorothy Casaubon she knew many pages
of Pascal's Pensees and Jeremy Taylor by
heart. Sir Charles Dixie contributes a
memoir of value to the book.
1t Is an indication that writing Is MOTTO
the writers-the most remunerative OF
occupations that the Royal Literary Fund
dinner owes much OF its success to the con-
sumers rather than the producers. Some
ESQ guests sat down at the banquet this
year, to which women were invited for the
second time only in the history Of the soci-
ETY.. The handsome sum that accrues to
the administrators Of the fund and through
their hands reaches those members of the
literary crafts who are considered to
have earned success but not reaped its
pecuniary reward are contributed by the
publishers and prosperous men OF law, COM
MERGE and business affairs. The oontri
buttons amounted to El 400, toward which
the King gave 81 guineas and the Gaekwar
Of Baroda 91OO. During the speech max
ing the Master Of Trinity recalled instances

authors to receive timely help-of John

from despair, and again the opportune
legacy which Wordsworth inherited from

The publication OF a new book by Mr..
Ernest A. Vizetelly revives interest in
this author, who was a war correspondent
at II, subsequently went through the Paris
Commune and was a great friend of lola.

ventured to publish Zola's novels in English.
Mr.. Vizeltey was born In England OF
