MAGAZINE NOTES. Atlantic Monthly.

National interests have the foremost place in the June Atlantic. The lead ing article Is a vigorous and timely discussion of tho questions that are certain to be brought to the front at the coming Hague conference. It is written by Benjamin F. Trueblood, secretary of the American Peace So- ciety The article on the distribution of wealth is a masterly exposition of the aristocratic, the socialistlc and the democratic theories on this subject. Socialists will not like it. The Oregon experiment with an equal suffrage ref erendum. to be tried in June, is the subject of a suggestive article by Frank Foxcroft. He thinks we should "go slow in tinkering with constitu- tional safeguards.
 Science is represented by Professor Sees account of Recent Solar Research, and Professor Daniels brilliant annual review of Signigheant Books in Eco monies and Sociology. J. H. Deni- sons White Death of the Soul is a protest against the abuse of scientific method
 Literature is, however. the Atlantic's s chief concern. The June number has characteristic essays by two of the most delightful of its contributors, Bradford Torrey and Martha Baker Dunn. Arthur Symons analyses Lam dors poetry with the sensitive, delicat te touch of the trained critic. Julian Hawthorne writes or English Lawns and Literary Folks. The stories and poems will speak for themselves. The Contributors' Club has something ir- reverent to cay about Phonetic Spell In

 Scenic Marvel of Idaho," by William H. Kirkbride, which described a thous-
 and-mile stream that flows through land of wonders. In "A Mayor of all the People" Isaac F. Mar cosson tells the picturesque human in-
 terest story of J. N. Adam of Buffalo. who Is conducting the city government as a great business is conducted. Mrs.
 Mary Crawford Fraser continues her
 series of first haicd Japanese articles with Japanese Women and the New Era" which is adequately illustrated. This is only a portion of the good
 things to be found in this number.

 The CoIonePs Dream. By Charles W, Chestnut. A novel that is rather heavy reading. The conversation particular ly being stilled and unnatural. Colonel French. the hero. has made a fortune North and returns South to his native town. He brings with him his only son. a delicate child. He intends to stay but a few days The old friends. the old home. the old groves. the old sweetheart, cause him to forget the friends of New York, the opera box. the rich widow. He buys his old home has 1t thoroughly renovated, gives a house-warming and offers his hand and heart to Miss Laura Treadwell.

 These plans do not meet the approv- al of William Fetters. rich man of the community. one of the overseer class. the enmity of Fetters is persistent and distracting. The well-meaning Colonel Is threatened on all sides. At length he determines to return North Miss Laura Treadwell declines to go and dissolves their engagement The Col onel settles comfortably in New York and marries the rich widow.

 The negroes are depicted with no pa.tial pen. Except old Peter. whose lime is sold to pay a vagrancy fine, and Taylor. a school teacher. the race is pictured as debased and shiftlesS. Old Peter gave his life In effort to save his masters son.
