MODERN BOOK TITLES ARE CLEVER

Prom the New Orleans Times Democrat.
There is something peculiarly interest
in; In the revelation of popular taste
made 10y the titles Of novels. For some
years past red has clearly been consid-
cred a color to cOnjure with, and there
seems no abating Of this tradition. Some
Of the late examples Of this superstition
are The Adventures Of the Scarlet Car"
The Scarlet Pimpernel." Tho Vermilion
Pencil" and 1.-The Stem OF the Crimson
Dahlia." Doubtless II the motor car. the
pencil and the floral specimen had been
of a different hue, they would not have
possessed such fy-catching qualities. Cor
nelia Redmond who is giving the public
the benefit OF the monologues of Mrs.
Mcguire at the Corner" makes that sage
person reprove a young lass whose fancy
for her policeman sweetheart has been
cooled by the dazzling representations Of
a fortune teller "a fair man 'ud come
lookin' fer you wild a red autObne" says
Mrs. Mcguire, scoflngly. "an' make rich
lady iv you, SO she promised you all that
for tin cints" Here we see an
other example Of the hypnotic power Of
red. Yellow had a fieeting vogue a few
years ago, but blue and pink are evi-
IDENTIFY considered insipid. and purple ap-
pears only metaphorically in Purple and
Homespun." 1t was a simpler age that
"a Pair OF Blue Eyes looked forth upon
a complacent world, Two Bad Brown
Eyes" being more up-to-date. However
popular green eyes may have become no
fictionist would venture upon the wild
originality Of naming a novel "One Small
Green Eye" Unfortunately for latter
day writers. Balzac pre-empted a taking
title In la File aux Yeux dor"
Current fiction falls easily into groups.
The Princess, Duchess" and Lady
furor shows no sign Of abating; witness
"The Lady Of the Beeches." The Lady
Of the Mount" The Lady Of the Decora-
ton. "The Loves Of the Lady Arabela. -
"The Lonely Lady Of Grosvenor Square, -
My Lady of Cleeve.' Lady Betty,
My Lost Duchess" THE Duchess of
Dreams" Princess Nadine" 'The Prin-
cess Pourquoi," and Princess Virginia" "
THE Lost Goddess" may De consid cred 10
occupy a middle ground between common
mortals and nobilities and royalties The
Fair Moon OF Bath" also belongs in this
class of fiction. the distinguishing charac-
teristc of which is a cOlored picture OF a
pretty young woman on the cover-a bait
unfailingly attractive TO misses IN their
teens.
There was a period when everybody I'm
general was ''confessing;" but the busi-
ness was 50 overdone that now a writer
would scarcely dare 10 put Confessions

way. as In Confessions of a Daddy.

May Engage Mr.. Hammer.

At the regular monthly meeting of the
board of managers of the Washington
Choral Society, Thursday evening last
the question Of the engagement OF a con-
ductor for the next season was under
discussion. The sentiment Of the members
was strong in favor Of the engagement Of
Heinrich Hammer, whose work as con-
ductor in the latter part of the season
just closed made a favorable impression
upon all the members and also upon the
general public. The concert committee
was directed TO enter upon negotiations
with Mr.. Hammer, with a view TO pro-
curing his services, and the probabilities
are that he VIII be the conductor for the
season Of 190S-O9.
