''Priests of Progress"

BY c. Colmore. Published by r. W. Dodge
Co.. New York. Price Sl.Jo.
Anti-vivisection is the theme Of this
novel by G. Colmore and the publish
er's notes say that it created nothing
less than a furore in England. where
1t was first published. The practice
of experimenting upon animals for
the benefit of science is bound to be
a subject for controversy the world
over and the people who are interest
ed in the subject can argue pro and
con so cleverly that the lay mind has
nothing TO offer in answer.
This tale lis a romantic novel built
around vivisection. Sidney Gale is it's
hero and when he enters the medical
profession he is an enthusiastic be-
lever in orthodox methods. He falls
in love with Violet Lowther. called
David" because she was discovered
defying a bull with a catapult when
she was mere infant, and the name
has stuck to her through life. Her
father is the great DR.. Lowther. a very
celebrated surgeon and in the front
ranks of the vivisectionists. Sidney
has a hard time, but he loves David
devotedly and respects her father and
his tremendous ability so much that
he declares in favor of the yivisec-
tionists.
David is prevailed upon to marry
a scientist, Professor Cranley Chance.
though she is not deeply attached TO
him. They have an invalid child and
David becomes an enthusiastic believer
in vivisection. for she is told by her
husband that his experiments may
lead to the discovery of something to
cure their child David has a friend
who is an ardent worker against WV
isection and one day they are talk
ing together and David says: THE
character of deed is in its motive"
She is only repeating her husband s
oft quoted argument and this is her
friends reply:
'All very well for the man who does
the deed. but it has no validity for the
man. woman, child or animal who is
hurt A man may knock me fiat on
the road, mash my head in and make
or with my purse. His motives may
be of the purest; his wife and children
may be starving, and what more COM
mendable than to feed your children
and your wife? But my head hurts
me Just as much as If he wanted to
get drunk on my money, or prove
scientifically that a head hit with a
certain force viii bleed. Motive is all
very well. my dear, and an individual
may be absolved by his motives for all
I know But if. safe in his own puri-
ty. he lowers the standard of the COM
munity by the quality OF his acts, I
say he is a pest to that community,
even though his acts should result in
the discovery of a gold mine"
Through an accident David wit
nesses an experiment in vivisection
and is converted at once to the other
side. Her husband dies and then the
child
Sidney has thrown in his lot with
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and in time he
and David meet again. Another in
teresting character is Edgar Hail. who
becomes a shining light by sheer en-
ergy and along the regulation ortho-
dox lines of medical research.
The novel with a purpose has not
been popular Of late, but this one is
well written and shows much study
and research on the part OF the au-
thor.

Fosters Complete HoyIe"

By r. +. Foster. Published by Frederick A.
Stokes company. New York.
r. T. Foster is too well known in
the world Of games to need much, II
any. introduction. He is the author
Of seven standard books on games and
the inventor of self-playing bridge
cards and the Foster whist markers.
This book is a new revised and en-
iarged edition of Fosters Complete
Hoyle," which IS an encyclopedia OF
games. including all the indoor games
of the present day. The book itself
requires little comment The edition
OF 1897 has been revised and improved
where possible and brought up to date,
and improved illustrations and dia-
grams make the book valuable. In
the midst of that unqualified praise ii
may not be amiss to draw attention
TO what appears to be defect in an
otherwise perfect and complete book.
The introduction opens thus: The
word 'Hoyle' has gradually come to
stand AS an abbreviation for an ency-
ciopedia OF indoor games. The COM
mon expression. played according to
Hoyle.' usually means correctly
played or played according to the
standard authorities All OF which
Is perfectly true, but there are doubt
less great many persons in the world
who do not know why. There are three
pages OF interesting introduction, but
in no place is one informed that HoyIe
was a person. There is really no word
to tell why "Hoyle now means
games II would take but a few
more words TO mention the fact that
Edmund Hoyle was the greatest au-
thority of his age on sames that he
lived the last years of the seventeenth
and the first years OF the eighteenth
century. and that Foster has revised
his great encyclopedia OF games and
brought ii up TO date One supposes he
has done that. for there was no other
authority on games in those days
Everything one wants TO know is in
the book. and that. after all, is the
main thing.

WHITE SLAVE" WAR
ON N PHOENIX
ARREST OF THE FRENCHMAk
RoMARDiN
On Warrant From department. of
Commerce and Labor.

The arrest by the police on We'd
nssday night of A. Bomardin and
Adele Benitez, yesterday developed
into an incident of the war against
the white Slave" traffic which is
being waged all over the country.
Charles t. Connell, immigration in
spector, stationed. at Douglas, arrived
in the city in search of Bomardin,
for whom the department of com
merce and labor has been looking for
some time. Mr.. Connell has the
record of the villainous Frenchman
from the time he arrived in the
country at FL Paso with the BeniteZ
woman of the peasant class and put
her into a house of prostitution, a
felony under the federal law. They
had not been at FL Paso long be-
fore the government authorities be-
gan looking Bomardin up but be-
fore his record was established he
and the woman disappeared.
Soon after the arrival Of the in
spector a warrant sworn to by the
secretary of the department Of COM
merce and labor was served on Bo-
mardln at the city Jail, whore he was
still held last night.
But the worst of his troubles are
TO come. Under the warrant which
now holds him, no other penalty than
that of deportation can be imposed
upon him. But United States Attor-
ney Alexander thinks that one who
has come so far 10 make a study of
American laws and institutions should
be given some consideration and OPP
portunity to carry out his investiga-
tion, He does not want Bo:nardin
deported summarily. He will th@re-
fore cause his arrest today on the
charge of bringing a woman into the
country for purposes of prostitution
That will land him in the peniten-
tiary, and after he has familiarized
himself with the manner of American
jails there will still be time for his
deportation.
This is really only the beginning of
the war against the white Slave"
traffic in this community, though it
was agitated a couple of years ago
when a lot of Polish Jew girls were
brought in. In fact, II was about
that time that the wholesale importa-
ton of girls from Poland awakened
the country to the need of its re-
stFiction and the federal laws were
passed. These laws are being supple
mented in many OF the states by still
more rigorous laws.
Keepers OF houses of prostitution
are also running a risk under the
federal laws hardly less dangerous
than tina: Of the macquereaux who
brings the girls and women into the
country. 1t is a felony to harbor or
maintain in prostitution an alien wo-
man who has come into the country
within three years. The burden Of
finding out whether il is safe to
take a prostitute into house or rent
her room devoIves upon the keeper,
so that his risk is even greater than
that IF the procurer, who knows all
the time just where he stands.
