Their Surroundings" etc, is a study Of the
planet Mars for the general reader by a
naturalist of international reputation.
Prof. Morse. who is a member of the Ma
tional Academy of Science and many other
scientific societies, spent thirty-four con-
secutive nights at the famous Lowell OBJ
servatory at Flagstaff, Ariz.. 1000 feet
above sea level, observing the markings
or the canals on Mars. The Interpretation
of these lines by one who is so familiar
with the surface features of our own planet
is Of great value and Prof. Morse has pre-
scented the result of his observations in
concise. popular form. His comment on the
attitude of astronomers towards the canals
on Mers is of unusual interest. Published

The Plow-woman." by Eleanor Gates.
is romance of the prairies. The heroine is
a southern girl, and the first scenes of the
story are laid In western Texas. Later the
scene shifts to the Dakotas. Miss Gates,
who Is used to handling characters close to
the ground has given a study OF a splendid
girl who rises above the shiftless condi-
tons that result from a crossgrained father
and an accident, and who proves her right
to her lovers designation, ''the Rose OF
the South" Though II may be said that
in this working girl. one finds rather the
hardy fresh wild rose OF the fields than
the dollhouse variety. The family live In a
one-room Iog-and-mud shack, but the tale
is by no means sordid one. It breathes
hope, self-rellance and cheer. and in the
exciting turns OF the plot holds the readers
interest to happy end. This book has been
endorsed as an historical novel," though

Some Realestate Figures

The Tabor Beacon, down in the
southwest county in Iowa, says that
{" Alfred Andrews, of Brayton, has
sold his eighty-one and three. eighths
acres, two miles west of that town, for
$3.50 per acre. This is the farm that
Paul Woerth, the erstwhile Randolph
realestate dealer, tried to cheat Mr..
Andrews out of by trading him an
equivalent in South Dakota blue sky.
Woerth then sold the Andrews farm
to III. p. Coy and received $4,000 on
the deal. Failing to find his Dakota
farm Andrews brought suit to recover
his Iowa farm. The case was heard
in the Mills county court and Andrews
won out. Then the case was carried
to the supreme court where the lower
court was affirmed. Mr.. Coy now
gets the land through second pur-
chase which will no doubt hold good.n
The same paper speaks of four
hundred acre farm there, belonging
TO an estate, which was appraised a.
$S3, soc. 90 but sold at auction for s42,t

MARTIN SMITH RETURNS
Had Delightful Time Among His Old
Comrades in New York City


After forty years absence Martin
Smith went back to New York City to
visit the scenes and the comrades OF
early days. 1t was there that he lived
before the war and there he enlisted in
the army. He had the honor of be-
longing to the Hawkins .Zouaves, be-
ing Ninth New York Infantry, COM
manded by Colonel Hawkins. They
were called Zouaves because of their
peculiar and attractive dress. Mr..
Smith was very fortunate in finding q
number of the officials of his regiment
because of their prominence in the
business life of the city. Among those
whom he met and by whom, he was
most cordially received were Colonel
Rush G. Hawkins and Captain A. Lib
aire, of Company" to which he
belonged. Both of these gentlemen
are members of the New York Stock
Exchange. He also met Major James
b. Horner, stock broker, and Ser
geant Charles III. HankinsOn, who is
Superintendent of the American Soci-
ETY. for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals. The regiment consisted of
over a thousand enlisted men besides
the officers and today so far as they
know but eighty-seven are living. Mr..
Smith served two years in this regi-
ment and when lifetime for which they
enlisted expired by Limitation he join
ed General Hancock's First Veteran
Corps which was made up of an excep-
tionally fine body of men who had
served full term Of enlistment and
had been honorably mustered out.
Mr.. Smith was one OF the guards and
stood within twenty feetof the scaffold
when Mrs. Surratt and three men were
hanged by the government for con-
spiracy.
Besides visiting with his old COM
rades he took in the city and noted
the remarkable changes that have been
made in forty years. The Pennsylva-
