New Chinese Literature.
The Inauguration Of the new school
system and the new civilization is
bringing in translations of the most
popular books of the western world.
Today 221 novels, originally written in
English French or German, are in cir
eulatioN They have been translated into
Chinese, and the demand for them is
increasing. In one year 81 such novels
were issued. They included translations
Of 'Hncle Toms Cabin Jules Verne's
Voyage to the Moon" and Charles
Lambs Tales From Shakespeare" One
of the most popular Of the new issues
is Conan Doyle's Memoirs of Sherlock
]. Holiness and another is Robinson
Crusoe." Among translations from the
French are Les AIiserables' and Man
on Lescaut," and the most popular Eng
lish stories are 'Ivanhoe' and other
novels of Sir Walter Scott These works
are published on cheap paper; they are
sold by booksellers in the various
cities, some bringing as little as 10
cents apiece. One of the recent trans
latiOns of this nation sold TO the extent
of AGO. 600 copies, and that within a
year; another had circulation of 15S,-
600 copies within IS months.
In addition to novels, some heavy
works, such as Darwin's Origin of
Species" Spencer's Evolution" and
Aill's Essay on Liberty are being
published, and the new constitution has
created a demand for treatises on poll
tics and parliamentary law

A large number OF the new transIa-

ciaI Press editorial room a large num-

has been made in Japan, and a large
number of the modern maps and charts.
The japanese teachers will work for
lower salaries than other foreigners,
and this is one reason for their en-
pIOyment. As a rule, they are not thor

yates as leaders for the new schools.
