Of me regarding whether or not thought

hooks AND AUTHORS.

| Mrs. Humphrey Ward has written new
| novel which will begin as a serial in an
| autumn number Of the Century. Like Lad v
Roses Daughter and 4The Marriage OF
| William Ashe.' the story will be founded
on a historical basis Of fact. It Ia inter-
| esting to note the similarity between the
heroine OF Mrs. Wards latest story and
Lady Caroline Lamb. Lord Byron's Caro-, I"
who is the original of the character.
Lady Caroline was a slight. small woman
| with short golden ourls, vivacious, auda-
cious and impetuous in manner, gay, septi-
mental, at times profound, as times child
ishly irresponsible in temperament Fond
OF books, it was natural that she counted
among her friends the two best known
literary men Of the Dayton Moore and
Samuel Rogers. 1t was the latter who
loaned her the copy Of 'Childe Harold"
then privately circulated. and she sat up
all night reading the manuscript. She
confded to Rogers her great desire to
know the author, and the caustic critic
replied He has a club foot and bites his
nails" But the Lady Caroline insisted
that if he were "as ugly as Esop" she must
know him. Lady Caroline's husband, calm,
elegant and philosophical absorbed in
the game Of politics, oondoned her conduct
and treated her like a spoiled child, to be
INDUCED in the caprioes which amused her.
Lady Caroine's only child was the victim
OF Q mental weakness which resulted in
almost idiocy. Lady Caroline, repentant
OF her follies. accomplishing in her suffer-
ings. gentle and grateful to those who
cared for her, died peacefully in her hus-
bands arms. Her husband always cher
ished her memory with tender devotion
and never married again. Lady Caroline
was never able to forget her poet lover
She wore his miniature always about her
neck, and the chair at Melbourne House
in which he sat to the artist was chained
in its place. She wrote several novels
which never attained celebrity, and her
last days were spent In generous acts to
the unfortunate and to the poor people OF
the county, to whom she was true Lady
Bountiful.
The first portion Of Bielsohowsky's Life
OF Goethe, which is being translated from
the German by Prof. w. A. Cooper Of L.
land Stanford, Jr., University, has been
received. and the publication of this work
in the autumn promises to be an important
literary event. This biography is the ma
t,Ire work Of a scholar In full command Of
his subject. 1t is accepted in Germany rs

libraries beside the works Of the great
poet himself.

TO BUY IN CHEAPEST MARKET.
TSTHMIAN CANAL COMMISSION so
DECIDES.

II VIII Purchase Msterlsls, Supplies and
Machinery and Two Steamers as
Cheap as Possible. Anywhere--No Law
for the Purchase In American Markets.
WASHINGTON, May l5-At a meeting to-
day OF the executive committee Of the
Isthmian Canal Commission, consisting
Of Gov Charles Z. Magoon. Chief Engineer
Wallace and Chairman Shonts and SEQ
rotary Taft, it was decided that the COM
mission In the future should buy the ma
terials for Use on the canal wherever they
could be procured tho cheapest, whether
in American or foreign marke Is. The
decision il regarded az one Of the most
important reached by the present COM
mission and il Is expect ted that as soon
as the executive committee begins to
buy material or machinery abroad pro-
test will be made by domestic producers
and manufacturers.
One Of the steps which will be taken In
the near future will be the purchase Of two
cleaners, which will be used for trans
port OF employees and material be-
tween this country and the sthmus on the
Atlantic side. 1t was desired to purchase
these vessels In the United Stat ~, but not
only arc no NesdelS Oh tne hlhQ de-
sired available. but the cost Of an Ameri-
can built ship Is 50 per cent. greater than
the price for which one can be procured
abroad.
Last fall, in his letter to the President
transmitting the Isthmian Canal report,
Secretary Taft pointed out that one OF the
questions which would be sure to arise
was the policy the commission should
follow In the purchase of materials. Con-
gress, however. took no action on this
question In the absence OF any law to
govern it the commission thinks that 1t
cannot do otherwise than go ahead and
buy the material as cheaply as possible
no matter where. prominent Govern
ment officer said to-day:
Congress should have provided for this
condition, which We knew would come. II
there was law obliging the commission
to purchase American materials and Ameri-
can bottoms there would be no possibility
Of an outcry. As II is the commission can
do nothing else than buy supplies and
materials just as cheaply as possible.
There will surely be an outcry by Americans
against this policy. and possibly Congress
will do something next fall. The two YES
sells which the commission is about to buy
will cost probably $3.50. 900. In the United
States the ships would cost about 81, 400, 900.
The difference is the same In many other
things"

Every negro song composer OF ragtime
fame had box and the head waiter OF a
hotel in Cleveland had brought twenty
guests to the opera with him. There were
few of the women who did not carry flowers
and the maa without white gloves was
conspicuous. Motor cars were plentiful
in the line Of vehicles that brought the
audience to the doors.
Several hundred people watched the
arrivals from the other side Of Fifty-eishth

among these critical observers that the Drury
Opera Company had never drawn such a
brilliant audience.
The company sang Carmen the first
year it was organized. The manager
discovered only a short time before the
performance that Estelle Clough, the negro

for the title role She did not black up, to
the damage of the color scheme. This
circumstance. conbned with the neces-

white singers, produced an effect Of black

The Schidlofskas case has probably
caused more commotion in yellow
journal circles than any ordinary
wife murder of recent years. The
metropolitan journals of the big
eastern cities have devoted columns
to the case day after day. and yet
there was nothing in it that was Of
any particular interest to the gen.
eral public. The Denver newspapers.

their eastern competitors. manufac-
tured news concerning the case
which did not have the least founda-
ton in fact. One day last week the
Republican and the News Of Denver
had a fake interview with General
j. H. Whitney concerning SchidlOf-
skas. The Republican interview
took place at the Oxford Hotel and
the News reporter quizzed the BOs-
ton officer at the Albany. General
Whitney was not in Denver at all
last week. despite the fact that some
of the bright newspaper men of the
capitol city probably thought he
ought to be, but was right here in
