SEVEN EARLY RoosEvELTs.

From One of Them It Is Believed
 That Roosevelt Street Received Its
 Name.
 Two European cities. Ninove in Bel gium and Christinania in Norway, have since the Portsmouth peace es- tablished Roosevelt Streets, and in two other European cities, Geneva and Paris, the establishment of q RoOse- 1 yelt Street is proposed-in Paris as Resignation for the present Rue de la Paix. There is pending before the Board Of Aldermen a proposition to 1 designat Seventh Avenue north of Central Park as Roosevelt Avenue. Roosevelt Stree in the Fourth Ward runs from Park Row to South Street and, at no time a celebrated thourough fare, is now best known as the street l which has the largest number of Greek ! residents. Most of them gre peddlers. It has always been a question to which one of the early ROoseveIts the naming of Roosevelt Street was due. | The name Roosevelt has always been a 1 prominent one in the public affairs of l this city and as early as 1700 there was q Roosevelt in official station. ] He was Nicholas Roosevelt, and lived | in what was then known as the South Ward, a portion of which included the present territory of Roosevelt ] Street. He was an aldreman and a man of business, a dealer in bolts and { bars,
 John Roosevelt was an assistant al-
 dcrman from 1717 to 1729-a long period in those days. He was mer-
 chant ad lived near what is now
 Catherine Street Conelius Roose- welt was an alderman in 1764, and another Nicholas Roosevelt was an al- ! derman from 1763 to 1767. i Cornelious C. Roosevelt was an aI- derman for five terms and in 1903 be-
 came a member of Assembly. He was ! tho first of the Roosevelt family to att 1 tain cffice to which, 80 years later 1 Theordore Roosevelt was elected, and , in which he began the career which 1 iculminated in the Presidency of the Pnited States.
 1 James Roosevelt, d Fourth Ward merchant Roosevelt Street is in the 1 Fourth Ward), was an aldrman, and JamesI. Roosevelt, a lawyer, gained f,nore political fame than any of the | preceding Roosevelts. He was first an alderman, serving in the present
 First Ward, then the most fashionable district of New York about the Bat tery for three terms. From alderman
 he became member of Assembly and
 served for two terms, and in 1S40 was
 elected to Cngress. The New York
 delegation to that Congress was a
 memorable one, for it included Mill
 lard Fillmore, afterward President of
 the United States. Subsequently, MT.
 Roosevelt became judge of the Su-
 preme Court and served as such for
 six years until 1860.
 Many of the early Roosevelts promf-
 nent in the Public life of New York
 were aldermen. Little resemblance
 between the office of alderman as it
 then existaed and as it exists today
 could be found The early New York
 aldermen were merchants and free
 holders who performed judicial as
 we'll as legislative functions. The of-
 flee of alderman was one of honor
 rather than emolument.-New ork Sun.

 The country is threatened with a timber famine, and it is predicted that the next generation will find the sup ply Of hard woods exhausted in nearly all the States. The American farmer is much of a vandal. and during the last century there was wantonly de- stroycd enough walnut, oak and ash to supply the necessities of our people for hard woods for decades at the present rate of consumption, But that is past mending and mills do not grind with the water that went by yesterday.
 There is something of q land famine also, but that is Imaginary rather than real, though thousands of Ameri- cans have left their homes and lacated in the Dominion of Canada, where lands are fertile, abundant and cheap If there is land famine in the States it is due to the improvldence of cur fathers and theirgvandal methods of 'sikimming" the soil There are mill lions and millions of acres thus ex- hausted and turned out as waste and worthless oil fields. These could be reclaimed and restored to their former fertility if we could induce the Ameri- can farmer to give a little though and "a little time to posterity.
 Timber culture is unknown with us or so little practiced that fer practical purposes it does not exist, though we have millions and millions of acres of 'waste, exhausted and abandoned fields on which valuable timber could be grown, but the man who plants a. timber tree works for posterity, and our folks are so hot foot after the dol lar they have no time for tree planting And yet timber culture can be made profitable to the planter.

The young, and too, the older ones, who are lovers of poetry will find many a gem of verse in the attractive ly bound book of poems by Edward Willard Watson, M. D., under the title of ssOId Lamps and New" published by H. W. Fisher s& Co.,, Philadelphia There are a diversity of subjects treat ed in these verses, but most or many express sentiments of love, and the closing pages are devoted to a we'll written cantata entitled, By Gaza's Gate.' Particularly fine among the short poemes is the following: Love comes too late-too late! The shadows colder grow,
 The north winds keener blow: Love comes too late!
 Summer is dying-dead.
 The rose e-leaves drop.
 The heart-beats stop,
 The summer birds have fled.
 Love comes too late-too late! Cold are the autumn days And chill the golden haze:
 Love comes too late!
 0 Love, why come so late?
 The roses in thy hair Droop-once so fair
 In winters air:
 Love comes too late-too late!

Lovers of Trollope will be glad to know that they can get the volume in uniform style and size with the novels.
 Two calendars which will doubtless become popular during the coming season have just been issued by Messrs. Dodd, Mead and Company.
 They are "The Beverly Calendar" with illustrations by Harrison Fisher, and ''The Nature Calendar" with quo tations from the works of Hamilton Wright Mabie, and with illustrations from nature, ~coloured by hand.
 The fame of Paul Leicester Ford rests largely upon two successful nov els and his photographed work, which have overshadowed his many clever short stories. Messrs.

In the November Atlantic Mr. Henry Holt, the wel-known publisher under title ''The COmmercializati ton of Litera- ture,'' answers a recent anonymous book called "A Publishers Confession ? MT. Holt takes direct issue with the publisher of the confessions, or Peni- tent, as he prefers to call him, and for this reason his article is likely to be the subject of lively discussion-in the pub fishing world at least. The confessing publisher in his volume consistently re- ferred to his profession" and, more oyer. used, in connection with~ftt-tae word glory" Mir. Holt objects to the application of these words to the pub fishing business as it is conducted to- day. A profession, as he under stands it, is conducted only by men whose qualifications have been ap- proved by body of experts; but any 5boiy,'' he says, "who has enough cash or credit to start the business can be a publisher" He says a publisher who gave him more than one bit of good advice in his callow days was a jolly, ignorant Irishman who had lately been a porter in book shop. He says fur ther:
 Men in a profession consider it any thing but professional to advertise, but publishers advertise more, probably, in proportion to their chances of return than any other traders. Men in a pro- fession consider it unprofessional open ly to seek clients, and not only unpro- fessional but disgraceful to seek one another's clients; but publishers are more and more being drawn into these habits.

 SmedIey and TaIbOt-''The Race of

 ssoId Lamps and New" by Edward
 willard WatsOn-FOrthcOmin Books.
 ''The Wizards of Ryetown," by A. Constance smedley and L. A. Talbot. published by Henry Holt & Co, New York. is one of the newest books to bid for public favor. and its attrac- tions are many and strong, for ex- elusive of the some fifty very happy illustrations by Augustine Macgregor the work is a delightful fairy story tinctured with drollery, and with some very clever nonsense verses. The plot is an ingenious variation of the good old story, with its little girl in fairy land, it's lively and malicious witch, it's lovely prince and it's happily ever after.'' The inhabitants of Ryetown and BarleybOrOugh, moreover, are or iginal and captivating.
 Perhaps older readers and playgoers remember Ragueneau, the poet pastry cook in Rostand's "Cyrano de Berger ac.' A poet cook is one of the features of the Misses Smedley and Talbots 'fWizards of Ryetown," and judging by the pastry cooks tale of Joseph Rumbelow, a bit of which we print be- low, the oldsters who enjoyed "Cy- rano," as well as the youngsters at whom this new book is primarily aimed, may have pleasure out of it. s'Of. all the incest cooks l know,
 The best was Joseph Rumbelow, He toiled till eight o'clock at night, yTo do the things he thought were

 Among the book of stories of wild animals, one of the latest and best is .'The Race of the Swift" by Edwin Carlisle Litsey, published by Little, Brown &. O., Boston. These stories possess unusual merit, and will keenly interest both young and old. They tell of the wild animals in their haunts "A mother fox, @ hawk, grey wolf, a wild cat, 8 racoon and sheep dog .sturned bad" are the chief actors in these enthralling narratives, which, al though intensely exciting, are kept strictly within the range of probability. The descriptions of the woods, of a birds flight, of storm, of a drouth and other phases of forest existence are vivid and graphic.

Hit BY Endine.

Michael Sympsted, Russian. had a
very narrow escape Sunday evening
from being crushed to death under a
Rock Island freight train and it is a
miracle that he escaped with as few
bruises as he did. He was at the Eley-
enth street crossing waiting for the
east-bOund passenger train at 6:15 TO
pass and not noticing the west-bound
freight approaching he stepped in front
of the engine. The engine picked him
up and threw him against a box which
was standing on a sidetrack. He
bounced back on the engine and onto
the freight car again and then dropped
to the ground. The train crew stopped
the train as soon as possible and pick
ed him up in an unconscious condition
and Dr. Arp was called, who found
that he had not even sustained the
fracture of any bones. However, his
bruises are quite painful and will lay
him up for some time, but there seems
to be no doubt as to his full recovery.
