"oueedp by Henry Syndor Harrison
is the best selling novel at present u
is also good reading. 1t belongs 10
the local clearinghouse class for the
development of its main characters,
skilfully overdrawn caricatures, yet an
happily disappointing. The plot IS
made to involve practical Journalism
politics and all the characters are
clean, wholesome and interesting,
There are many colloquialisms like
wonderfully gifted "fichly earned,
"sallying forth" that have really been
overworked. The conversation is I'M
poverished by generous use OF common
Ieveryday slang like, I'm going to IRE
him" etc. But the success OF the mover
is due to its being written down to the
literary standards of the multitude
The proprieties. the conventionalitles,
the universal demands of commonplace
conformity, are so perfectly adhered
to that the millions can read 1t safely.
There are very many entertaining
situations, and at the critical places
there is high dramatic tension, The
element of humor is present through
out and the novel is a fine specimen
of modern fiction that is kept quite
within the comprehension of common
people. The evolution of characters
| is worked out finely. Charlee, the
petite charmante,' becomes the fine
woman of stable character. The dried
up, spectacled, weazened professor OF
political economy is made virile man
at the gymnasium. The theoretlc col
lege-bred. book-stuffed professor be-
comes a practical editor. The yes-yes,
sissy-sissy, agreeable flatterer, who
has himself log-rolled into the presi-
dency of an university, turns out in
the end to be a vacillating political
dupe The right couples are united
at the finish and the proper people
get the money That is the prime re-
quisite of nine novels out Of ten that
succeed.

FOE OF HIGHER

CHICAGO, January S.-Richard T,
Crane, head of the Crane Company,
and foe of universities and higher
educational institutions, died at his
home tonight after a three days i'll

Richard Teller Crane, multimillion-

business world as the head of the
Crane manufacturing concern in Chi
cago ne became especially prominent
in the past two years by his attacks
on the higher institutions of educa-
ton. His investigations reused
storm of protest from all the larger
universities and technical schools in
the country.
Crane worked up from position as
mechanic. Born in Paterson, N. j.,
in 1882, he came to Chicago in 1855,
and began the long uphill climb to
his place as a power in the industrial
world. He became connected with
Martin Ryerson, who helped him TO
start in business by giving him a
piece of land on which to build
brass factory. Later, Crane was
Joined by his brother, Charles s., and
their first foundry was built in 1860,
and from this developed the extern
sive plant now owned by the COM
pany. Mr. Crane has interested him
self materially in benevolent and
philanthropic work, and was an en-
thusiast for the primary and second
airy education of children.
A couple of years ago Crane began
an investigation of all the universi-
ties in the country. Statistics of stu
dent lfe were carefully compiled, the
success attending college-bred men
being watched With this material
Crane attacked higher education, de-
claring it harmful to the average
American youth. The colleges re-
torted with more statistics and the
fight was still at it's warmest when

facturer.

millions, brought his benefactions 10
