THE QUALITY OF CONTEMPOR-
 AIRY FICTION

AIRY FICTION.
 In common speech literature has al- most come to be narrowed down to a synonym for fiction. If reference is made to the most distinguished writers of the day, our minds naturally turn to the most distinguished novelists. It is they that can boast of the largest sales and the most dazzling financial returns, and 1t is of them that popular literary gossip most assiduously prattles. The question most assiduously prattles. The question, What new books have you been reading lately?" means, in nine cases out of ten. What new novels" It Is generally accepted that, if con- temporary writer has any ideas. to ex- press, he will express them most effec- lively in this form. In the twentieth century no other type of literature, un- less the daily payer can be included in this classification, can be expected to reach the ear and heart of the demo- cracy In the course of all the ages there has at last been evolved this SUD- reme literary medium for lack of which our rude forefathers had to be content with poetry, the drama, philosophy and the like. To us has come the privilege Of achieving wisdom through the study of truth embodied in a tale" Why should reading be any longer a drudge " when we can take our lessons in the kir dcrgarten of literature?

 while for the ablest writer to enter this l fiei2, it may be asserted, with good reason, that there is no other kind of | literary work, at least in prose, in which the level of performance is SC low. In many respects, the work of modern writers will bear comparison
 with that of their predecessors of fifty years. There has been no falling off in the quality of the best biographies, let
 ters, essays, and scientific and philoso-
 pnical treatises; for these latter- | strange as it may seem to the writer of personal paragraphs about authors count for something in literary history
 to say nothing of contributions to

 This is the last week of the season at the White City, and to make it a notable one the management has pre- pared a special combination ticket-the gate, chutes, scenic, laughing gallery and miniature railroad-and costing but twenty-five cents. This ticket is fifty per cent off the usual price and affords an unusual opportunity to take in the attractions at small eose with in the reach of every one. The tick cts will be good on Tuesday and there after until next Sunday, when the White City will close it's second suc- cessful season.
 Professor Singers dog and monkey show had made such a hit that the management has decided to keep it an- other week for one of the features of the outdoor vaudeville. Professor Mo- gle's jumping dog will also be on the bill.
 A new feature will be the wonderful Skatinelli in the most sensational aerial act on the road. Miss Emma Irving, the beautiful Texas girl, has been pre- vailed upon to stay to the end of the season with her marvellous collection of deadly snakes, which she handles and controls with a charm that is beyond understanding. Yesterday Miss Irving received a new consignment of snakes including four diamond backs, one in- digo and one pine snake.
 This consignment is fresh from the wtlds of the mountains, and the snakes are of the widest description. Despite this fact Miss Irving opened the box in which they were shipped and han died them fearlessly, despite the fact that several times they hit at her. This collection of snakes has no equal in this country. It is composed almost ex- clusivelye of the deadly members of the reptile family and to see the way in which Miss Irving controls them is a wonder and also 8 study for the best minds '-

ROAD COMMISSIONER
Is DEAD.

Mount Holly, N. j., Jan. IA. Henry
Trick Budd, State Road Commissioner,
died at his home here this morning
after suffering 20 years with tubercu-
losis, added to which was recent at
tack of catarrh of the stomach. Mr..

his position up to a week ago.
Mr.. Budd was born near Vlncentown
on March 2, 1886. His ancestors we're
among the original Colonial proprie-
tors of West Jersey and the plantation
on which he was born was occupied
by the Budd family for over 225 years.
He was graduated from Bucknell Uni

ing then claimed his attention until
1866, when he removed to Mount

although actively interested in agri-
cultural pursuits, to which he gave
special attention as secretary of the
Burlington County Board of Agricul-
ture and the New Jersey STATE Horti-
cultural Society, positions he held
many years. Mr.. Budd was an earn
est advocate of road improvements and
his ideas in this direction were spread
over the entire State. In May, 1895,
he was appointed by Governor Werts
as State Road Commissioner, and re-
appointed for successive terms by
Governors Griggs, Voorhees, and Muir
ply. His last term would have ex
pired this year.
Under Mr. Budd's administration
he had been instrumental in construct
ing 1000 miles of permanent stone and
gravel roads, and it was during his
various terms of Office that New Jersey
came into prominence as the leading
State in the Union in the matter of
road building. Mr.. Budd is survived
by his second wife and two daughters.
Two sons have died during the past
few years with consumption.

Peter the Great and Lawyers.

In Russia during the reign Of Peter
the Great private litigants might have
their suits prosecuted free Of cost BY
lawyers paid by the state. The emper-
or, discovering that his subjects were
being imposed upon by their legal
agents, who contrived to delay trials
until they had sucked their clients dry,
enacted that sufficient solicitors and
attorneys should be employed at hand
some yearly salaries to oficiate for
the public In every matter Of law. He
ordered further that these men should
insert In a register written up daily
the dates Of applications to them and
should proceed with the suits in the
order in which they were received
without respect Of persons. If they
failed to do so, If they accepted any
bride OF fee or If they were dilatory
these lawyers were to be knouted and
sent to Siberia.

Polo Is Ancient.

Polo was played from the backs Of
horses in Persia during the tenth and
eleventh centuries. At that time the
Persians In a great contest, Iran versus
Turan, found their match in the Turks,
greatly to the disgust Of King Afra-
slab. The Byzantine poet Miami sung
Of polo in the twelfth century. Then
polo spread from Persia into central
Asia, India and Tibet In the sixteenth
century, when the great Emperor Ak
bar patronized it. In Japan the game
IS at least 1000 years old and is still
popular under the name Of da-kin, or

The Term "Greenhorn,"

The term "greenhorn'' originated in
this way: The pioneers Of the west
were much given to hunting deer. It
was a fact known to early settlers that
when the horn Of a fawn began to
grow there was a ring of green hair
around the spot. 1t was considered a
disgraceful thing for a hunter to kill a
fawn, a cruel act, and the killing time
was regulated by the growth Of the
horn. There vas a sort Of unwritten
law that no n should kill a male
fawn before its horn could be seen. A
person who was so unthoughtful as to
kill a deer under the proper age was
called a ''greenhorn." he was so
named because the young horn Of the
deer and the hair around it were still
green. The use of the appellation
gradually spread until it was applied
to all raw or inexperienced youths or
| persons. easily imposed upon.
