which Charles Wagner brought to

power-power in simplicity, by which a
man, speaking in a simple way upon
subjects In no way sensational, or even

and reward literary talent. Horton
held the same Consulship under Cleve-
lands administration. and the land is
not only familiar to him In layman
fashion, but also he has been there be-
fore as literary artist, as his Long
Straight Road and The Tempting of
Father Anthony reveal. His latest

he loves to describe, and relates the
