Malcolm declares that the tour of the Funeral Mountains was more hazard ous than her lonely journey through the Chilcoot years ago.
 No white person had ever visited the spot where I viewed the great copper deposit until l made my way there" :" she said yesterday. "I have never be- fore seen such suggedness in the noun tains as the Funeral range presents. have been a prospector ten years, and have passed much of my time in the mountains of Alaska, Colorado and other places where there are mines The Funeral range is the worst of any. I made up my mind that I would search for gold and copper in the foothills of the Funeral Mountains. I was com pelled to cross the range to get where I wished to go. had no fear, but there were minutes when, in climbing, I did not dare to look back, but only kept right on.
 There were many places where a misstep meant sure death. All there was to do was to go ahead. Once start ed in, there was no way to stop without confessing defeat. Finally, I found what l was looking for. At first I could hardly believe my eyes. I had reached a point about twenty-five miles from the line of the Clark road and six teen miles from the line of the Borax Smith road, when the ledge loomed up immensely.
 Then l was happy, I have studied mineralogy, geology and other lines leading to mining, and I have done as- sessnent work with my own hands in a shaft sixty feet deep. In short, my experience has been such that I be- lieve that I am competent to know whether my mineral discoveries are val uable.
 "The ledge stands up clearly from fifty to seventy five feet, with both gold and copper in it-but more copper than gold. There may be millions there in easy reach--a quantity that I believe is almost beyond ordinary computation. If 1 am not mistaken, the discovery is valuable for it's richness, and also be- cause it opens up knowledge of an en- tirely new copper belt in the Death Val ley"

Books on hygiene are seldom as at tractive as they are useful, but pr. and Mrs. George Wells Fitz's Pro blems in BaIbyhood," which Messrs. Henry Holt and Company will publish next week, is thought to combine these virtues. Dr. Fitz, Boston physician, late of the Harvard faculty, and his wife write entertainingly and instruc- lively of the care of the baby from the standpoint of constructive control of the development of the body and char acter, during the period of most rapid growth. Some twenty decidedly att tractive pictures of child types by Ed ward A. Bell, embellish the little vol tune.
 The reading tour of those typical English and American humorists, Je- rome K. Jerome and Charles Battel Loomis, has increased the public inter- est in their books, and Messrs. Henry Holt and Company are just having to send MT. Jeroms's "Stageland" to press for the tenth time. But to give credit where it is due, probably a good share of the success of that book is due to Mir Partridge's delightful burlesquei

pictures of typical stage scenes and characters.
 Dr. Richard Burton, who has been lecturing in the east for several
 months, is shortly to take an extend- ed tour through the south on which he will lecture, and also will read from his new biblical play, "Rahab, for which he has already had a request for the privilege of stage production. Messrs. Henry Holt and Company will issue this new play in a few days. Rahab is shown as an impetuous oriental beauty In whom, notwithstanding her way Wardness, the bonds of patriotism and filial devotion are strong, while she is further influenced by a growing belief in the Jehovah of Israel. The climax centering around the fall of Jerieo, is said to be highly dramatic.
 Camille Flammarion, the celebrated French astronomer, has been collecting data regarding the havoc wrought by lightning, and from this valuable in formation he has written book of striking and popular interest which will be published in this country under the title Thunder and Lightning by Lit tie, Brown x Go, Boston, March "A. The chapter headings are: "The Vic tims of Lightning" Atmospheric Elec- tricity and Storm Clouds, ''The Flash and the Sound" 'Fireballs, The Eff fects of Lightning on Mankind" "The Effects of Lightning on Animals, Trees and Plants, Metals, Objects, Houses" " etc, Lightning Conductors, and Pic lures Made by Lightning"
 Lafayette McLaws' new novel, Maid of Athens" with Lord Byron for the hero, just published by Little, Brown & Go, was really written, it is authorita- lively asserted, long before any of the recent Byron novels were published. This young southern author planned her latest book shortly after her two previous novels, When the Land Was Young" and "Jezebel," were issued.
 Little, Brown & Co. announce a third edition of Judge Walter c. Moves American Railroad Rates" which the Nation terms 'the best-balanced book on the subject that the present contro- versy has evoked
 A second edition of Anna Chapin Rays new Quebec romance, Hearts and Creeds," is announced, while the Canadian edition will bear the imprint of the Montreal News company. Miss Ray has succeeded admirably in relat- ing the consequences of the marriage of a Protestant girl to a Roman Cath olic without giving offense to any one.
 Arthur Stringer has taken new and unhackneyed theme for his new novel, The Wire Tappers," which Little, Brown X Go. will publish in April. The hero, an electrical inventor, and the heroine, 8 beautiful English girl, by sheer force of circumstances become associated with man who attempts, by wire-tapping, to beat the poolroom. The events which follow are yividly unfolded by MT. Stringer, who is one of the most careful craftsmen among American authors.

BOMB IN ST. PETERS.
People Badly Frightened by Explosion
But None Is Hurt.

Rome, Nov. ia bomb was ex-
ploded in st. Peters Sunday. The
edifice was crowded and an indescrib-
able scene of confusion followed.
There were no fatalities.

mendous roar had ceased. a canon
sought by reassuring words to quiet the

ed and tried to protect their families in
the crush. The church is so large,
however, that there was ample room
for the crowd to scatter and no one
was injured. No trace of the perpe-
traitor of the deed has been found.
Since Saint Anacletus, who was or
dained by Peter himself, erected an
oratory in 90 A. D., on the site of the
where the remains of St. Peter are
buried, no such dastardly occurrence
is noted in the annals of the church
It was the anniversary of the dedica-
ton of the basilica to st. Peter, and it
was beautifully decorated for the oc-
casion. Holy relics were exposed and
a large number of the faithful attend
ed the services. Cardinal RampOlla,
formerly papal secretary of state, was
among those present. He took part
in the services of the choir chapel.
The last mass had just been conclud-
ed when the explosion occurred, and
ished, remained at the altar of st. Pc
ter. This altar is at the end of the
right aisle, and it was near here that
the bomb had been placed.
As the canon turned to bless the com
municate there was a tremendous roar,
which echoed through the lofty arches
of the immense dome like a thunder
clap. At the same time a dense smoke
spread throughout this portion of the
basilica and a strong odor Of gunpow-
der filed the air.
Confusion and panic at once seized
the people. The canon at the altar tried
to stem the tide of fear He shouted.
