: INTIMATE STUDIES OF THE METH
E. Walters Thru the
Gates of the Netherlands is more than an
ordinary travel book: 1t is the result
of a residence of several months in the
Netherlands, months spent in close and
intimate study Of the people. their land
their life and their arts, by a most sym
pathetic student. It is not in any sense
.@healyy,'' however The author, who is
widely. known for "The Wood Carver Of
'Lympus," and other fiction, has carried
her love: Of the true, the good and the
beautiful over into this work, and the
best in. Netherland life is given in all its
spicturesqueness, but with evident idel-
tity to fact. Besides the personal note is
everywhere evident; and it is a. note that,
wanting, would leave the book much less
enjoyable. Indeed, Mrs. Waller. is a.
charming guide. The interest in the book
is accumulated by the extraordinary quail
5ity Of its illustrations. r.s

under serious consideration at the War De-
partment. 1t is not yet settled what course

be tried by military or civil authorities,
and, in the latter event. whether in the
courts Of the United States or the courts
Of the state Of Texas.
The officials here admit that they are not
disposed to turn the negro soldiers over to

marily dealt with by the rough element In
that city. 1t has been practically decided,
In order to protect the military prisoners
from danger Of lynching or other mob vio-
lence, to retain them in the custody of

been reasonably established that they
actually took part in the recent raid In
Brownsville. and that IL turned over to the
state, authorities they will receive a fair
and impartial trial. with adequate protec-
ton during its progress.
The officials here are gratified that the
troops got away from Brownsville with
out further conflict with the citizens. and
1t is now admitted that they departed at
an early hour in the morning with that spe-
cial object in view.

dition. is putting his affairs in shape SO
that he will be relieved of all business
cares.
Early in the sixties he came to this coun-
try and purchased large tracts in Illinois,
Kansas. Missouri and Nebraska, getting
most of it at SIPS an acre. His total pos
sessions, it IS said, now amount to 100000
or 100000 acres.
Until twenty years ago Scully made his
home in Ireland but most of the time since
he has lived here, as the alien laws apply
ing to land made it desirable for him to live
here and he became a naturalized citizen.
The most of his land Is entirely in the
hands of agents. although he has visited his
tracts at intervals during the last five
years
The farms are never improved. This is
left to the tenants. They pay SO much an
acre for the land. They put up their own
buildings and fences. Scully achieved the
title Lord from American people In the
west because Of his continued acquisition
Of land and for his Introduction Of the old
