A HANDSOME VOLUME.

Some years ago there appeared from
Alfred Lambourne's pen a charming
taie of mountain life with tender
threads of love and romance twininS
through vivid descriptions Of life and
scenery In the rugged west. The story
was called "Plet" and was written In
prose with the poetic touches which
our we'll known artist go deftly weayeS
into his word pictures. Mr.. Lam
bourne has recently turned this prose
tale into verse, retaining the simplicity
and charm which distinguished the
early narrative ard adding to 1t many
dainty touches OF imagery which en-
nance the work. This has been made
into Christmas volume which makes
II q most handsome and suitable gift
book for the season. The story Is
chiefly that OF the love OF a young
girl and youth OF the mountains, the
latter a prOspector who dwells amid
the mountains IN lonely cabin sur
rounded by Babel nights" of noun
tain peaks whose Businesses inclose
them on all sides Here the young
people learn TO know and love each
other. and the simple story Is made
vivid by descriptions Of the scenes
amid which they live, But the haunt
ing terror OF the mountains the snow
slide" is forever upon them, and with
L. "a
thrilling story Of the descent OF the
dread monster carrying blight to the
young lives which make the central
theme. Then, when pity Is para
mount comes the fortuitous climax in
which all ends happily both for the
characters and readers, whose Christ
mas ideal could not but have been
Jared by the pervadng sorrow Of the
seeming end This note of JOY and
the recurrence Of the Christmas tune
which sounds throughout the story
creates that necessary chord OF cheer
which alone fits the Christmas season.
The story, and the dainty volume
with its illustrations OF rugged noun
tain scenes, to say nothing Of the real
istic atmosphere Of the west exhaled
from its pages makes It q very ap-
propriate seasons gift. The book,
which Is ON sale at the Deseret News
Book Store. Is handsomely bound and
has many beautiful illustrations, 1t is
printed on the most expensive paper
and will therefore be an ornamental
and valuable addition to any library.

THE BROWN TRAGEDY.

The shooting of former Senator Ar
thur Brown, by Mrs. Bradley, IN Wash
ington, is the climax OF a tragedy In
many acts and scenes, the sad details
OF which are moro or less familiar TO
the Salt Lake public. II Is not neces-
sary to dwell upon them. here. In all
probability the earthly career OF the
victim OF the assault is soon ended, and
he will have to answer for his deeds in
the flesh before the bar OF the eternal
Judge from whose DEGREES there Is no
appeal 1t is best to forget, IL possible,
the sins and shortcomings OF the dead,
except for the lessons they may con-
vey to the living
And one OF the great lessons OF the
misdlrected life OF Arthur Brown is
this, that II does not pay to transgress
the laws of God relating to chastity.
No other sin has caused so much mis-
cry, so much bloodshed and murder as
the violation Of those laws. This lesson
has been imprinted upon mankind re-
peatedly, since the beginning Of his
tory, but Il Is one that some are apt to
forget. The fate OF the antedilu-
Wan world, OF sodom and the other
cities OF the plain, OF David, Of Herod,
and numerous others, Illustrate the
fearful consequences OF ex-transgres-
sions. Especially the young should
notice such lessons, and make a valiant
fight for virtue, against temptation.
II matters not how brilliant a young
man may be, or how many advan-
tages of education he may have had;
II matters not what his opportunities
may be; II he abandons the paths OF
virtue, and persists In course Of lust,
his life Will be a failure. "Can a man
take fire In his bosom. and his clothes
not be burned? Can one 30 upon hot
Goals, and his feet not be burned"
These questions are from the Proverbs
OF Solomon. They express eoquently
the Views Of the wisest OF mortals on
the dangers OF yielding to the tempta-
tons of lust. How timely Is the exhor-
tation Of the same inspired author
Let not thine heart decline to her
ways, [speaking OF the strange wo-
mani go not astray in her paths. For
she hath cast down many wounded;
yea, many strong men have been slain
by her. Her house is the way to he'll,
going down to the chambers of DEATH"

THE M0HAMMEDAN WORLD.

According to statistics published in
the Mohammedan World Today, the en-
tire Moslem population OF the world Is
estimated at eS2 966, TO. This number
Is somewhat smaller than some former
estimates, but II is considerably larger
than the estimate by NJ. Fournier de
Flax. who gives the total OF the fol-
lowers of Mohammed as only l76,sSi,-
timated total of Roman Catholic wor-
shippers, which is given as 230, s66, 533,
and exceeds the membership of tho
Protestant churches, which is estlmat-
ed at i4S,237s25.
The greatest number OF Mohammed-
ans are found in India, the total being
over 62,0OO.000 The Mohammedans Of
China are estimated at 3o00O,O0O. In the
be about 100000 and in Persia near
ly e,oOOO,oOO.
In the United States, Mohammedan
colonies are being formed in several
bttNVN Wy AIuil Nlbildltl-
medan countries. They are said to be
very highly valued as unskilled la
borers. because they are willing 10
work anywhere, and do almost any
thing for comparatively small wages.
II Is said of them that they never
strike. They are temperate and In
dustrious. and are therefore well liked
by employers. 1t Ia not impossible,
therefore that a Mohammedan prob
lem will arise In the future, II laborers
from Mohammedan countries are en-
couraged to come here and are pre-
ferred in American establishments to
the American labOrers.
Mr.. william f, Curtis,the well known
correspondent of the Chicago Record
| Herald, in recent communication to
his paper, tells Il little story on the
| authority Of Rev. Mr., Hoskins, who
has charge of the missionary printing
office az Beirut. Mr.. Hoskins said
| that merchant from Damascus went
TO Liverpool to live. leaving at home
large family of wives and children.
In Liverpool he married another wo-
man and lived with her there for seven
years, the Liverpool woman not being
aware OF his Damascus family. When
he returned 20 Syria he was aecompa-
MED by his English wife. who, when
she heard of his Damascus establish
ment refused to go with him. So ne
built her beautiful home at Beirut,
where she lived In comfort and luxury
In the course OF time she met his Da-
mascus family and learned to love
them, whereupon they all came down
20 Beirut and lived together IN her
beautiful house. Then she went to
Liverpool for a niece, 10 be the wife
OF one ~ her husbands sons. This
young girl Is said to have had a rather
stormy career Her husband was shot
dead, and at the age Of thirteen she
was widow, and finally she became
the wife OF the slayer Of her husband.
The story gives some insight into
Mohammedan family life and Turkish
conditions, as well as human nature. 1t

hammedanism. One principle by which
