This book is as long as two ordina
rily long novels. The Brothers Kara
mazoy, whose existence and feelings
and doings form the chief structure Of
the story, were the sons of buffoon
and drunkard, but one who was able TO
accumulate money and hold on to it.
The brother Dmitri is the eldest of the
sons. and the most given to sensuality,
to passion, and to unrestraint. He did
not complete his studies, but went into
the army and all at once found that
he had no patrImony, and came back
to live in the same town as his father
He was the only son Of that father g
first wife. BY the second wife the
father had two SONS, Ivan, brilliant
scholar and cultivated skeptic. Alexey,
the younger son, was almost saint,
devotce, and an inmate for long time
of monastery. There is multitude
of characters brought into the nara
tion besides these main ones, and the
whole narration is vivid, realistic
picture of Russian life at that period.
That this life was coarse, scandalous,
loose, and reckless is evident from the
story. The author is master story
teller, and gave TO the Russians such
picture of their home life as might
we'll have appalled, them. We have in
this book for tho first time complete
translation, unaltered and unabridged,
of this great story. That 1t is vivid,
realistic and startlingly true to the
life which it seeks to portray is evi-
dent on every page. 1t is n master
piece Of storytelling, but its very
length will bar it from wide popularity

WISCONSIN AS LEADER.

Wisconsin: an Experiment In Democ-
racy. BY Frederic C. Howe, Phi. D.
Published by Charles Scribners Sons,
New York.
The author of this book is thor
ough La Toilette man. He appears to
think that the Wisconsin Senator is
the apostle of a new era in public life,
in civic virtue, and In the regeneration
OF government in America. He takes
it for granted that every change is in
the interest of progress and of popular
rights, and that wherever La Toilette
has made a move, that move has al
ways been disinterested, sincere, full
Of anxiety for the public welfare, and
beneficial in its effects. AS to all this,
of course, there is fair room for differ
ence Of opinion, but not so does Mr..
Howe think. However, be mas made a
most entertaining and readable book
out of his subject, and has placed Wis.
consin so far in advance Of other States
in all progressive public life and pub
lie avtlvities that no other is second.
The, title chapters, as follows, give a
good idea Of the scope of the work:
:. La Toilette, the Builder;' Laying
ing in the Expert; - "Completing the
Structure of Democracy;' Regulating
the Railroads and Public Utility Cor,
porations;" "Shifting the Costs of HUI

departs from those waters in some Of his
stories, and makes the world his scene
Of startling sea tales. In the eight
stories given in the book, viz, fThe

Rorealis' -; "Lieht- Ship 67'; "Cap-
tain Blaise'; "Don Quixote Kieran,

"Cogen Capeador,' Mr.. Connolly is at
his highest mark of entertaining pro-

imaginative and how far they are
stories heard by him in bis intercourse
with seameu it is not necessary to in

Mr.. Connolly always treats his public
to something worth while, and IN this
series OF stories he eu,phatically i'm
proves upon himself. They are rous-

sea, but chiefly on the sea, and their
scenes range from the ice Of the Arc.

a way as to make them in sense dif-

characters in continuous story. The
romantic adventures of the artist and

button Of it; and finally, to secure such
AS will limit the amount Of wealth
which any individual may own.
The author points with pride to the
licinian laws of the Roman republic,
which prohibited any one from pastur-
ing more than a certain number Of cat.
tie on or from possessing more than 500
lugera (about 37j acres) of public
lands. It is argued that the succeed
ing laws, the latifundia, which allowed
the accumulation Of vast landed es
tates, wero the ruin Of Rome Accord
ingly, we suppose the author would pro-
hibit the ownership Of large tracts Of
land by any person or corporation, as
we'll AS the prohibition Of any one ac
cumulating more than a given amount
of wealth. All these schemes, of course,
are futile, in that they make no pro-
vision for real enforcement. That is
to say. they prohibit nominally but do
not, in fact. prohibit joint ownership
by many persons in common or with
one real owner at the head of the com
pany, of vast amounts of land, or the
holding of vast wealth in the same
way. In our complex civilization, il is
easy to obtain dummy directors and
these holdings for the benefit of some
one individual or family. The means
of shutting of accumulations either Of
wealth or OF land would seem, under
our equitable laws and institutions, to
be impossible Of enforcement. The
writing of such books as this, there.
fore, is idle, since they are sentimental
merely, and offer no suggestions of
practical value
