REACHES FOR INNER NATURE

The Dweller on the Threshold. BY Rob
ert Hichens. The Century Co. Publish
ers. New York.
The writer of this story has hereto
fore, in his "The Garden of Allah, -
Bella Donna,' and other stories given
TO the public high idea Of his quality.
His works contain deep psychological
analysis with strong flavor of ro-
manticism in them. His imagination is
exceedingly lively and strong. with a
power of clear conception and express
sion which fascinates his readers. He
is realistic, too, on occasion. and his
stories partake of the vastness and in
tcrests of actual life. The leading
character in this story is Evelyn
Mailing, who shows extreme and
sustained interest in psychical research
and zeal in his work for Professor
Stcpton. There is q dominating cleric
in the story, Rev. Marcus Harding,
marvelously successful in his rectorship
in the West End of London. There is
his senior curate, Henry Chichester, d
too easy in his ways, too kind-hearted.
and victim Of gross deccptions. There
is Lady Sophia, a lively parsonage, in
deed. a typical English woman of birth
breeding, and security of position, yet
erratic and unconventional. And finally,
Professor Stepton, interested in science
alone. These are the main charac.
ters. The bringing of them together,
showing how they act and re-
act on each other, and how. from the
contact, there result certain develop
ments which seem beyond all posi-
bility, yet making the strange story
seem natural, is the great art of the
story. This is fine Imaginative work
of the gifted author. 1t is story of
marked individuality and power, and
altogether out Of the common rut.

An American Girls Triumph.

\ Kansas City girl has all London
at her feet. Without influence in So
ciety. without freak advertising but
possessing a marvellous voice, Miss Fe-
licla Lyme sang the role of Gild1 in
"Rlgoletto last Saturday night. When
the curtain fell an unheralded meteor
had flashed across the sky. All the
London critics lavished praises upon her
Young head. The Daily Express said
that her voice was as rich as Melbas
and as clear as Tetrazzini's. and the
Standard, the Mail, the News. the
Chronicle, the Post, and all the other
newspapers paid generous tribute
1t IS no wonder that this American
girl IS now being interviewed fifty times
a day. and that she is being photo
graphed in a score of poses. 1t is not
every day that a second Patti is dis
covered. and If the enthusiastic London
ers are to be believed, this has actually
occurred. A great voice is a real boon
to the world, and if it should hap
pen that a new operate star of the first
magnitude has appeared in the musical
armament, we must needs felicitate our
selves that the United States is her na-
tive country. 1t is pleasant to see. also.
that there is no provincialism in art
and that recognition of rare merit is not
withheld through prejudice.
We are glad that Miss Lyme told the
English reporters that she dotes on
baseball, green corn. and American
oysters. She is loyal to her native land :

CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY.
By A. w. MACY.
CAPE GOOD HOPE DISCOV-
Erred BY MISTAKE.

CAPE GOOD HOPE DISCOV-
ERED BY MISTAKE.
For many centuries the need
OF a water route from Europe to
India was keenly felt. Portu-
guese navigators were especially
active in search of one. and in
1887, five years before Columbus
set out on his voyage of discov-
cry, Bartholomew Diaz rounded
Cape Good Hope. at the southern
extremity of Africa. He did not
know It at the time. being too
far out at sea. When the crew
discovered they were on the
wrong side of the mainland they
became panic-stricken, and in
sisted on returning at once. They
carried their point, and soon
caught sight of the cape. Thus
1t came that Diaz discovered the
Cape of Good Hope while sailing
homeward. II he had had a
bolder crew, and had kept on
sailing eastward, he might have
reached India and thus solved
the problem he had in hand. Ten
years later Vasco de Cana, an
other Portuguese navigator. also
doubled the cape. His crew was
likewise cowardly. and rebeIled:
but he evidently was a man OF
more force than Diaz, for he
quelled the mutiny and kept on
sailing eastward until he reached
the shores Of India.
