LITERARY LORE.
What The November Magazines Con-
tain OF Interest To Readers.

The November "Woman's Home
Companion" contains an article by
President Taft of interest and import
ance to every woman. 1t is an appeal
to the women of our country to help
the President in his efforts to get the
Senate to assent to the arbitration
treaties. which, if signed, will go
long way toward abolishing war. 1t
would be a great achievement, and the
President believes that women can
help bring il to pass. Aside from
this very important feature, the No
vember Companion" contains mass
of good reading, beautiful illustra-
tions and useful suggestions. The
great housekeeping, home decoration,
household and fashion departments
are, as always, filled with entertain
ing material, of time-saving and
money-saving value to women. At
this time of the year special mention
should be made of the fashion pages,
which, under the able direction of
Grace Margaret Gould, the well-known
fashion authority, are veritable d.
rectorv of good, economical and yet
fashionable ideas for women readers.
The "Red Book Magazine" for No
vember offers as its foremost literary
feature a story by Frederick Palmer
of an American soldier on the MeXi-
can border, entitled "a Touch of Sol
dierly Madness. !" A railroad story of
deep human appeal is Edward Hunger
ford's 1.-The Book Rules Man. Fran
ces A. Ludwig, whose stories of work
ing girls have been so successful, tells
of pair of shipping-room twins in
1.-THE Double Donohues. William
Bullock's story, 1.-THE Land of the
Free" is concerned with the shatter-
ing of a young Irish immigrant
ideals by being made the scapegoat
of great American corporation, and
in Stealing Roses" Eugene P.
Lyle, Jr., tells story that is based
on a curiosity of the law. Other

in the November issue are Lucille

Mr.. Editor
A suggestion offered by the mana
ger of one Of the most prominent
clubs of Baltimore, THE Eureka, is
to the effect that a local club and
gymnasium or something Of the sort
could be established to bring the An
cient City into prominence. Mr.. Sam
uel Harris, of Baltimore, visited here
the latter part of last week to
see if he couldn't get this city inter
ested in the sport OF boxing. He
stated that he had heard that Annap-
oils had much promising material. /
will state for the benefit of the pub
lie that Mr.. Harris is manager for
Young Britt, the prominent and prom
Using young boxer of Baltimore.
Mr.. Harris also promised Mr.. Sam
uel Rosenberg, manager and owner of
the Lyric Theatre, that he would do
anything in his power to encourage
the game here. Mr.. Rosenberg then
and there offered his house to Mr..
Harris as an inducement free of all
cost. Mr.. Harris accepted at once
and decided to put young Britt and a
w dS0lIRlOu TAU OH Tie LYRIC oNdSG
beside another strong six-round
bout, to the former to be of the same
run, the extent of the city law in
regards to boxing, besides several
preliminaries. The entire receipts
of the house will be distributed among
the contestants of the evening, sim
ply to see what the inducements the
sporting public of this city will offer
for the future when select bouts will
be introduced before this community.
A bout between Young Britt and a
Washington lad will be placed before
the Annapolis public on November 6.
This same bout will be fought before
the Eureka Club. of Baltimore on
Thanksgiving Day, therefore giving
the Annapolitans a chance to see il
before it goes to Baltimore. Mr..
Rosenberg intends to go to some
considerable expense charging the
theatre stage for this occasion. Any
communication in regards to above tip
will be answered cheerfully, if left
at the Lyric The tire.
