much abused vehicle for the exploitation of
all manner Of cults and reforms. The story
is a poor one, full OF impossible climaxcs,

tediously by sanity clergyman in a series
Of sermonettes and addresses. from which

4 Good Murder Story.

The complications arising out OF a mys-
FERROUS murder are described entertainingly
in 1.-THE Hundredth Acre." by John Cam
den Herbert B. Turner 4 Coz. The au.
thor seems to have read Gaboriau to good
purpose: the manifestations Of the plot are
evolved carefully and logically, though
the incidents have nearly all been used
before. Originality. however, ia hardly
to be expected in stories OF this kind; the
reader ia satisfied il his interest Is kept up
to the end.
The characters have more life to them
than is usually thought necessary in mys-
terry tales. None is developed very far :.
but all are sketched out clearly and act
like human beings. The reader may CUES
at the culprit earlier than the author sup
poses and the narrator may show little
sharpness, considering that he is a prac-
Using lawyer. but neither fact interferes
with the story, which is told lightly and
well.

DRUMKARD THOUGHT
ne WAS IN HE'LL

The Honolulu police station is under
going thorough cleaning and fumiga-
ton, the cells being closed up and
thoroughly fumigated with sulphur,
process that is necessary at least once
a year. Consequently there is little
room for prisoners, Last night a
drunken sailor was a light in and
taken below into the 1ah. ard. The es-
Gaping sulphur from the cells was
swept by the wind across the yard and
the man picked out the place where
the fumes were thickest and sat down
there. In a few moments he came tear
ing up to the door. yelling and cursing.
He evidently thought that he had
descended into the depths of Hades, for
through the drifting birthstone smoke
nothing but gray walls of stone were
visible. Beating on the door with all
his might he prayed piteously to be let
out. The fact that DR.. Pratt and an
assistant were also In the yard did not
reassure him and he fled from the doc
tor. perhaps thinking him the EVIL
One. After a few minutes In the yard
the door was opened and the trembling
man was brought out into the open air.
In a few moments he was on his way
to his ship. 1t is safe to say that he
will steer clear of the Honolulu police
station in the future.
