| concur
NoTcross, ].

In this maJter my concurrence is
special and to It's extent:
The language used by the respon-
dent in his petition for a re-nearing
and on which the contempt proceed
ing was based, was, in nay opinion.
contemptuous of this court; and, of
course. should not have been used
The respondent however, in response
to the order Of the court to show
cause why he should not be punished
therefor, appeared and disclaimed
any intention to be disres Dectful or
cuntempIuOus: and moved tha. if the
Court deemed the Language contempt
uous, the said language be stricken
out of his petition.
Respondent not only commended ana
said that he had no intention to be
disrespectful or contemptuCus. but he
also earnestly contendeG that the Ian
guaga charged against him a1d which
he admitted having used was not dis
respectful or contemptuous. In the
last contention. | think he was plain
ly in error.
The duty Of courts in matters OF
this kind is indeed an un1leas"~t one
such at least if has always appeared
to me Yet it must sometimes he
done.
t. erafore concur in the c0ncln
SIGN reached and in the order stated
il rhe opinion Of Justice Talbot, to
wit:
! 1t Is ordered that the cffen i've net
! iticn be stricken from the files. tina

Some English English.

No subject OF conversation is more sure
10 excite general interest than that Of usa &c
In language or pronunciation, so that a
book like The Kings English CThe Claren-
don Press, Henry Frowdel is sure to find
renders and to be tllkei about. How
delightful such discussions may be made
can be seen FIR ON Prof. Lounsbury's recent
articles. Here we AVE a book that is not
very wise, that Ia rather pedantio in parts
and rather fippant in others.
The authority Of the aut hors may be
questioned. Much that they have to say is
sensible, at times obvious. Many Of their
judgments seen to be a matter OF their
own taste. The reading on which their
book is based is curious. They have looked
for errors in the news columns of the Times
and in the Daily Telegraph, and, strange to
say, have found them there. They have
also read Miss Corelh's books and Mr.. E. F.
Benson's. OF what earthly use is II to
point out that these authors write bad
English9 So occasionally does Mr.. Kipling.
They take a mischievous delight in point
ing out errors in Henry Sweet and r. G..
White, but they mix themselves up COM
petely in trying to explain shall and will. f"
They do point out some current and growing
faults in English as 1t Is written, however,
and in 80 far justify the publication Of
their book.

Burr Todd has tried to do in in Ode Con-
necticut" (The Grafton Press). His chap
tiers have appeared as articles in periodicals,
but they are much more effective when
massed together. A good part deals with
the shore towns, from Fairfield to New
London, but when it suits his turn he travels
inland, too. A new field for romance is
opened by his chapter on the wbaleboat
privateers. There is nothing stilted in Mr..
Todd's pleasant essays; they should inform
the summer settlers about the country they
have invaded.
A very delightful book about Italy, Mr..
Montgomery Carmichael's "In Tuscany
appears in a new edition (E. P. Dutton and
Company. 1t consists of two parts; one
Is personal, and in it the author narrates his
experiences with the natives and shows
how their charm peDetrates his rather
stolid British shell. The reader will wish
there was more Of this. The other is de-
scriptive of places rather out Of the run Of
travel-Leghorn, Luoca, Volterra, Elba,
Montecatini, the Presidii and so on.
There seems to be an effort to revive in
terest in Greek in English society. Lee
turers are addressing ladies on Plato; popu-
lar translations are being published and now
from J. NJ. Dent and Company "a. p. Put

ton which faces the Greek text.

Mr.. John O'Connor Power has written in
"The Making of an Orator" C. P. Putnam's
Sons) and not a treatise on %elocution. He
deals in general statements and gives
sensible advice, which may very we'll
supplement practical training. His COM
ments On classical orations, Demosthenes
and Eschines on the Crown, Cicero against
Catiline, Burke against Warren Hastings
are interesting. He gives in full an after
dinner speech by MIR. Choste as a model Of
occasional" speaking.
The collection Of "Alphabets Old and
New by Lewis 3. Day. which appears in a
new edition (B. T. Batsford; Charles Scrib-
ner's Sons) is made from the point of view
Of the draughtsman and oalligraphist. II
contains many interesting examples and
will doubtless prove of service to those In
search OF models. II is difficult to criticise,
however, for chronological or derivative
order seems to De Of little account, and there
is much photographic misunderstanding In
the short introduction.

h'The Ancient Miracle, by Jane Grosvenor
Cooke "a. s. Barnes and Company.
There is a Photographic exactness about
many parts Of the story that involves a
certain amount Of olumsiness and the elab-
grafton Of u%nessential details. The people
mat the reader comes to know, however, are
natural and delightful and we'll worth
moving. There is a trife too much patron

Other HOoks.

Apparently Mr.. William Reed. who writes
1The Phantom Of the Poles walter 8.
Rookey Company, New York;, never heard
of the late John c. Symmes or Of "syn,mes's
Hole" and makes the same discovery
from his own independent researches.
He is convinced that there are no poles to
this earth, but, instead, apertures leading
TO the interior, where there is an unknown
world and In all likelihood an unknown
race OF men also. In his volume he often
areiterates his conviction and gives various
rea sons which have led him to bold IL.
The title "A Short History OF Free
Thought, which fitted the fret edition Of
Mr.. John n. Robertson's work, seems rather
misapplied to the two stately volumes
into which 1t has been amplifed g. P.

barely touches upon the nineteenth GEN.
tIry. In the sense Of protest against
religious conventions it is possible to trace
free thought in early civilizations and in
classical times as the author has don't In
his first volumes. 1t seems rather ~fancifnl
TO do 60, however. when the narrower
limits OF the idea used nowadays are CON-
sidered. The second volume, telling Of the
eighteenth century philosophers and their
more direct precursors, win therefore be

comedy Of society manners, with an eX-
cess Of wickedness and boorishness, and
the truly rural romano of the forest n Of
smuggling. The two are not blended
skilfully. Nevertheless, there Is a love
story to carry the reader along, there are
some promising forest rascals of whom the
author might have made much more and
there is a superiority of hairbreadth escapes.
Unless MIR. Deeping is an anti-vaccinationist
we do not see why he makes his hero take the
smallpox after he has carefully explained

A number Of impressions rather than
stories are included in @The Measure OF
Life" by Frances Campbell (E, P. Dutton
and Company. They are all very short and,
we fancy, have appeared before as articles
in London daily newspapers. Tn author
has a mystical tendency that will rather
puzzle the reader. Nearly half the stories,
however, are based on Celtic or other
Irish traditions, which lend them poetry
and beauty enough to attract the reader.
An old friend in the old dress appears
in the late James De Miles Cord and
Creese" Harpers). 1t wakes up pleasant
memories to see the double columns in
which so many English masterpieces Of
fiction made their way into American
homes, though the woodcuts that went
with them have disappeared. 1t was
worth while to issue this reprint Of a story
OF adventure famous In its generation il
only for the purpose Of comparison with
the weakness OF modern invention. Prof.
De Mile had the art Of telling a story we'll.

The Pocket Meredith.

II the novels Of George Meredith can be
made popular by means Of attractive cheap
editions, that published by Charles Scribner's
Sons ought Il accomplish the feat. The little
volumes, with their Gear. readable type,
can be carried about easily in vacation
time, and are equally worthy Of a permanent
place on the book shelf.
In this edition the text is that last revised
by an author, who has taken the unusual
trouble of going over his earlier work and
putting it into the shape approved by his
more mature judgment. The four volumes
just received contain "The Egoist, "Rhoda
Fleming" THE Adventures Of Harry Rich
mond" and "Beauchamp's Career" so
that, with the first four issued, nearly all
OF Meredith's more notable books are avail
able for the summer reader this season.
The other eight volumes are announced
to follow soon.
