"Joys of Earth"

There is a disarrning frontispiece TO
Henry S. Wilcox's book of homely verse
which forbids any tender-hearted re-
viewer from saying anything very cut
ting about it's obvious dement's as
metrical expression. Bessie and the
Baby are better poetry than any
feeble attempt of their admiring hus-
band and father to embody their
charms in rhythm and rhyme. There
is, however, a faint suggestion of Pope
and the elder didactics in the follow
ing stanza on page Is, hich is
reminiscent, as well as being indls-
putable:
In every way we turn the sight
Who seeks shall surely hnd
A myriad scenes that much delight
well directed mind.
This is not poetry, but very sensible
advice One feels that Mr.. Wilcox must
be as plea SAINT a friend as he evidently
is a relative, judging from the sincerity
of his numbering tributes to his FAMILY
If he only would crack joke, now
instead of trying to twang the Tyre!

arhe Crime Problem"

A clearly defined distinction between
kindness and sentimentality is at the
base of the criticism of existing penal
methods as voiced by Col. Vincent
Myron Masten, military instructor at
the New York state reformatory, Ell
mira, N. Y, in his book, 1.-THE Crime
Problem" A contrast with the British
prison system is made and an earnest
plea expressed for a more rational
scientific plan for dealing with the
criminal classes in America. While
the author takes radical issue with the
views of the theoretical students OF the
problem. who appear to see only from
the viewpoint of the individual trans
gressor of the law, his recommenda-
tions also include due consideration OF
the Impulses of humanity which have
evolved our present misshapen, II well
intentioned, system of dealing with the
offender. There is much good sense
in the book and from first to last an
essentially practical atmosphere OF
criticism and appeal for reform.

Some Ingenious RhymIng

Occasionally dexterous rhyming is
the only striking merit in a collection
of verses entitled The Parchment and
Other Poems" by R. A. S. Wade, which
the author, in a preface, acknowledges
were written mot for publication, but
to while away the idle hours spent in
caring for an invalid companion" Mr..
Wade is a resident of Los Angeles and
displays at times such mechanical
ability in the metrical manipulation of
words that one wishes he might have
aimed a little higher, eschewed the dia-
lect form and a sort of jog trot linn
erick in which the leading poem IS
written, and given US something by
which to measure more fairly his real
abilities. Even the poorest of his
poems have the genuine lifting swing.
The best of them, apparently. are yet
to be written, if he takes himself seri-
ously enough to try further in field
of literature which is rather thankless,
so far as profit Is concerned. but yet
has its compensations of the spirit
and sense.

calne In censor,a erIp


Hall Caine, who is working hard on
his proofs and the latter part of the
manuscript of his long novel 1.-THE
White Prophet" which D. Appleton &
Co. will publish early next fail, has
been quite i'll. He spent several months
in Egypt working up the atmosphere
and local color of his story, the scene
of which is laid in that ancient land,
and then went back to Switzerland to
do the writing. He was called to Lon
don short time ago to transact some
business about stage rights, proofs,
negotiations with his publishers, etc,
and the running around and bother in
cident to all this reacted on his physi-
cal condition with very bad effect. He
found that he could not carry on his
work of creation and revision in the
city and hurried back to, st. Moritz,
where it is hoped he will soon benefit
by the fine air and restful conditions.
1t will be matter for regret to many if
this occasions any considerable delay in
the publication of his new novel, which
is eagerly awaited by the public-es-
pecially as it is the first story of his
to appear for more than three years
and takes up a new field and events of
more than ordinary interest and emo
tional intensity.
Inc story In It's polltlcal aspect mas
been responsible for quite a fuss in
England, where the foreign office and
the newspapers have become quite ex-
cited about the authors attitude to-
ward Anglo-E Egyptian affairs, the pol
icy of Imperialism and SO on. This
has reached such pass that Mr.. Beer
bohm Tree, the actor-manager, has
judged 1t inadyisable to produce the
play founded on the book at this time.
He praises the dramatic and emotional
qualities of the story in the highest
terms, but thinks that in view of the
discussion and hostility that the part
of the book which has already ap-
peared has aroused at Whitehall and
in the bureaus of the English colonies
and dependencies in various parts of
the world 1t is better to post
pone, for a time at least, its presenta-
ton as a drama

Book on the Papacy

study of the dynasty of the supreme
pontiffs that reaches back in unbroken
line from the living pope, Plus X, to
the popes of Pepin's day, and beyond
till 1t is lost in the twilight of legend.
The book in question is entitled "The
Papacy," and is a translation of the
work by Prof. Gustav Kruger of the
University of Giessen. 1t is a brief and
mastery study, dealing with the ideas
that underlie the papacy and with the
great figures that have been the ex-
ponents of these ideas.

Extracts from the speeches and writ
ings of the distinguished Nebraskan
who has won friends in each of the
memorable defeats for the highest hon
or in the gift of his fellow countrymen
are collected into a volume entitled
1.-THE Real Bryan" compiled by Rich
ard L. Metcalfe, whose close personal
relations with the Great Commoner
made his authorship peculiarly valu-
able. To compress into 800 pages the
best things spoken or written by Mr..
Bryan on more than 150 subjects, polit-
ical and non-political, is the avowed
object of the work, which includes
handsome frontispiece of the colonel
and his two grandchildren. as we'll as
this characteristic epigram from his
pen, which adorns the title page:
"They call man a statesman whose
ear is tuned to catch the slightest
pulsation of a pocket book, and de-
nounce as a demagogue anv one who
dares listen to the heartbeat Of hu-
manity"
There Is nothing finer than this in
the entire volume. For compact scorn
welded to lofty idealism It is typical Of

varieties of conveyances, and neither
Yale nor Harvard will lack cheering
supporteds when they meet on the
gridiron this afternoon to decide the
veXed, and vexing problem of football
supremacy. According to reports re-
ceived here this morning, there is
no one left at Yale but a Waterman
or two, and a dozen grumpy profess
sors who have no appreciation Of the
great game. This statement is borne
out by the number of Yale men who
go shouting through the streets, wav-
ing blue flags and giving good imi-
tations of escaped lunatics, as BELTS
their university learning. The Har-
ward men are all calm, quiet and polite

they had covered the situation. But

There is some color here, too. It's a
safe betting proposition that all the
blue and crimson flags, banners, pen
nants, ribbons, butning and top bal
looms in America are on the STREETS.
Every house in town is a waving for
est of crimson flags. The streets are
lowing rivers of blue and crimson nar-
moniously mingled.

sporting men who make a practice Of
betting on the annual games that there

from the victory over Penn, which
eleven they defeated by a score of II
