LADY BALTIMORE BY Owen Wis

Lester Ralph. New York City: The
Macmillan Co.. SO Fifth avenue. Price,
Si.50
Il is a long step from "lho Nirginian'
70 Lady Baltimore and Mr.. Wister
need not feel offended Il the reading public
inclines more to the former than to the
latter For there is nothing of the Wild
West about Lady Baltimore " and festive
COW punchers and their delightful doings
figure not upon its pages.
Lady Baltimore tho title does not
refer to a woman. however. but is the
name given To a very delicious cake made
by the charming heroine and which figures
conspicUously in the story deals largely
with social conditions IN the South grow
ing ont OF the Civil War. The scenes are
laid IN what Is styled the old city of Kings
Port, but the author might as well have
dropped this little fiction and called it
Charleston, for the descriptions iit none
other than this famous old city OF South
Carolina.
The people with whom this story deals
are very attractive pcrsonagcs albeit that
some of them marked the end OF time, so
far as they we're concerned. when Lee
surrendered TO Grant at AppomattoN in
April, 1865. But. after reading Lady
Baltimore those who wonder at the
existence oi these human anachronisms of
the present day will have a clear under
standing of If not deep sympathy for.

nance which is woven around them. and

Interesting as any Mr. Wister has written.
despite the absence of the piquant flavor
that attaches to his far western sauce
Those who sternly resent the slightest
DEPRESSION from the strict lines of romance,
when the writing of a romance is the
author acknowledged purpose may find
portions of the book not TO their liking
There are interpretations OF social preach
ing and not little doubtful philosophy.
But in respect OF the evil results OF the
reconstruction policy, particularly the
sudden investment OF the great horde Of
Ignorant Southern negroes with the right
of suffrage, before they were capable of
understanding the elementary principles
Of government or of comprehend-
ing IN the remotest degree the duties
OF citizenship, there will be small incli-
nation TO dissent from Mr. Wister s
effective presentation and sound con
clusions.
