TIME TO GIVE THANKS

Washington, Oct. 24.-The text of the presidents Thanksgiving proclamation yesterday was as fol lows:
 "A Proclamation:
 "The time of the year has come, when in accordance with the wise custom of our fathers it becomes my duty to set aside a special day of thanksgiving and praise to the Almighty because of blessings we have received. and of prayer that these blessings may be continued. Yet another year of widespread we'll being has passed. Never be- fore in our history and in the his tory of .any other nation has a people enjoyed more abounding material prosperity than is ours: a prosperity so great that it should arouse in us no spirit of reckless pride, and least of all a spirit of reckless disregard of our responsi bilities, but rather a sober sense of our many bles sings, and resolute purpose, under Providence. not to forfeit them under any action of our own.
 Material we'll being, indispensi ble though it can never be any thing but the foundation for true national greatness and happiness. If we built nothing upon this foundation, then our national life will be as meaningless and empty as house where only the found- ation has been laid. Upon our material we'll being must be built a superstructure of individual and national life lived in accordance with the laws of the highest morality, or else our prosperity in itself will, in the long run, turn a curse instead of a blessing We should be both reverently thankful for what we have received, and earnestly bent on turning it into a means of grace and not of destruc- tion.
 
 Accordingly, I hereby set aside Thursday, the 29th day of Novem- Der next as the day of thanksgiving and supplicat tion, upon which the people shall meet in their homes or church. devoutly acknowledge all that has been given them. and to pray that they may in addition re- ceive the power to use these gifts alright.
 "In witness whereof I have here unto set my hand and caused the

Arizona's Development Just Beginning

Mining activity marks Arizona as not before in many years. Big companies and big capital are com ing in and extending their holdings. This always means good business for the little fellows too. Custom smelters open a market for medium ore, and big concerns in field mean roads and railroads, towns, cheaper living, and more economi- cal mining.
 With all the wonders of Arizona of today, development is scarcely begun. There are fertile valleys, vast stretches of unused lands. mountains of valuable metal. and thousands of square miles of forests never cut over. People are com ing in by the thousands, new rail- roads are projected or under con struction, and in every line the territory shows advance.
 The fight against joint statehood has served to bring the people to- gether, and to advertise the terri tory, until today this young com monwealth possesses as vigorous and persistent population of state makers as the republic ever knew and the country is better informed upon Arizona's resources than il 1 would have been for half a century under ordinary conditions.-EI Paso Herald.

BY PAUL PRY.

Maid of Athens by Lafayette McLaws.
Published by Little. Brown & Co.. 1906.
Miss Lafayette McLaws, the author of
MAID of Athens is a native of Augusta,
Ca, and is at present one of the eoterie
of southern literary workers living in
New York City Her first work was
"When the Land Was Young" which
was published in 1901 and met with i'm
mediate success. This was followed by
'Jezebel"
Possibly no theme chosen by the author
could so well have displayed her wealth
of creative imagination as the Maid of
Athens" In this she has taken the love
of Lord Byron for Thyeza, the little Gre
clan maid, and has woven around it
worlds of poetic fancy and the brilliant,
oriental coloring which form a most
beautiful and captivating romance. Much
of Byron's most beautiful verse was In
spired by this little Grecian maid and
with this circumstance the author has
coupled Byron's nobler qualities in his
fearless bravery and personal devotion
to freedom, which present to the reader
all that was best in the life of the poet.
He is somewhat idealized to be sure, but
is nevertheless human and tender and
sympathetic.
Miss McLaws appreciated the Won
drous possibilities of Byron's early visit
10 the orient and gives to her story a
setting that is full of color and subtle
charm.
The opening scenes of the story are laid
in Athens, and the style and diction OF
the author are as liquid and melinuou5
as the sunny destinations of this south
ern Cline She writes:
Thine beneath the sunny sky of Greece
touches all, save its human children with
caressings fingers, and passing years
beautify rather than deface. So this old
villa appears now much as it did when
Bryan woed madly its beautiful mistress,
or even as II did in that day fifteen
years earlier when this story opens
We first meet Countess Riga the
mother of the Maid of Athens" The
hurried rush of events, the frightful
echoes of war against the Turks, and
the dramatic death of the Countess usher
the reader with breathless interest into
the swift current of the story which
flows on unchecked until the sad and
touching close of one impetuous life. The
scene then changes to Turkey and the
brilliant court life on the shores of the
Bosphorous forms unique setting for
the relation of mpassioned events which
follow.
The work is ingeniously conceived and
most cleverly executed and the story
genuinely spun with the local coloring.
mysticism and quaint individualism of
the Moslem capital. The spell of Won
derfully vivid and creative imagination
breathes through every line, and in the
fascinatjons- of the descriptions, the ten

ans page and acting literary editor The
story of Judith grew out of vacation
times spent on Corydon. the first capt.
tai of Indiana, whose hazy purple hills.
red ros nd quaint charm of a bygone
day seemed suitable setting for tale
of the fifties. However, the Camden of
the story is not quite Corydon. for Cam
zen Is directly on the Ohio river, while
CorydOn Is perhaps a dozen miles away"
judith is an unusually attractive and
interesting story. The events have moth
ing to do with Corydon historically, for
the author has simply attempted to tell
love story of what is perhaps ono OF
the most picturesque friends In our his
story. And with this sweet romance OF

Some one writes that 1t was Herbert
Spencer who first advised George Eliot to
write fiction In reminiscent article In
Harper's for April, written by two ladies
who for many years kept house for the
philosopher, they record that Spencer
told them this interesting fact. and adj
ded that George Eliot and her brother
were the originals Of Maggie and Tom
Tul.iver in 1.-THE Mil on the Floss" The
writer's aver that Spencer seems to have
been responsible for more than one i'm
portant event In that authoress' career,
for 1t was he who let out the secret
OF her identity. Some one blessed with
more desire for information than with
tact had asked him point-blank II 1t were
tru, that Marian Evans and George Eliot
were one and the same, and his simplicity
being too great to allow him to prevari-
cate. he kept silence, and so the secret
was out"
