II is now definitely decided that four
Of the best polo players in the Ha-
waiian Islands will make a pilgrimage
10 California next winter, and will try
to lift the polo championship of the
Coast and bring IL back with them
across the Pacific. This is bigger
task than II appears at first hearing,
but II any team that Hawaii has so
far produced can turn the trick, the
combination brought together for this
particular invasion Is the right one,
and with a fair break OF the polo luck
there is every chance of success. In
any event, Il Is certain that even IL
men and mounts do not put up the
best polo they are capable of, they
win at least make q fine showing with
the California teams, and reflect credit
on the Islands.
For the past ten years Hawaii has
been planning to send an all-star team
to the Coast, hut season after season
one obstacle or another has cropped
up to Illustrate the scheme. Some
years the polo pilgrimage has been
mere talk, and. again, some years the
plans have been very near realization.
After the championship tournament
here last July, however, q little hui of
enthusiasts got together and pledged
themselves TO make the trip, ands a
few days ago Frank Baldwin came
down from Maui To consult with the
local players, and the matter was fl
nally settled SO far as the Hawaii
pIayers are concerned. Correspond

AMENDED FAIRY TALES.

Fairy Tales. Edited by CHfton John

Published by Little. Brown, and Com
pany Boston.
The Introductory note by the author
explains that he has included in this
volume the favorite woudcr tales of
many nations in version especially
suited for the homo and firesidc. The
interest, the charm, and all the sweet
ness Of the stories have been retained,
but savagcry, distressing details and
excessive pathos have been dropped,
and the book can be read aloud or
placed IN the hands of children with
entire confidence. We fear, however.
that In eliminating the savagcry and
the blood'curdlipg details of some Of
those old stories, Mr Johnsou's YER
sion will be decidedly objected to by
tho little ssvagcs who hear and read
such tales, for the experience Of those
who deal with young children is that
they arc eager for blood, and the bIu-
tailty is TO them simply sort Of in.

who know the older varsions will con

why Mr.. Johnson made the changes,
however. is that ''our little people are
better off without some Of the senti-
ments of the barbaric past when the

CARR'S COWBOY LYRICS.

Cowboy Lyrics: Roundup Edition. BY
Robert V. Carr, Published by Small,
Maynard & Company, Boston.
The dedication Of this volume is "To
the Range Rider The number Of the
lyrics is large, and the work is very
good indeed, There are two poems
which we viii give as illustrating the
best IN the book. The following is uD-
der the title OF Sagcbrush:
Pine plumed the grotesque buttcs arise
Like monsters squat and dumb.
AS shl1ll the watchful curlcw cries.
Behold, the armies Gomez
The shostly ranks pass in review
Meath flags OF twilight haze
The west wind low and thrilllngly
Their martial music plays
From column into line they wheel.
The skrmlshcrs advance.
Yet ne'er CLEAN OF bayonet,
Nor glitter OF Il lance.
In silence sad they sweep the plain,
Like veterans grim with age:
Across Gods $ somber-land they march,
The gray ranks OF the sage.
The other poem is called The
Buttes,' and is as follows:
IIalf-hid in shadow, vague and drear.
They loom like sculptured shapes OF
fear;
Monuments and CHASTITY domes,
And topping turretS tall,
That rear missha pen forms above
Son monStrouS castle wall
Yon castle wall where dwarIlsh pine,
In fringe nigrescent SET

The BibIe That Was Lost and Is Found.
By John Bigelow. New Church Board
Of Publication, New York.
The title of this book is a mislead-
ing one. There has been nothing lost
in the Bible, aud what is found is
simply a recognition of the Sweden
borgian idea that the Bible is not
TO be accepted at its face reading, but
is mystic, hidden sort of book, that
has to be explained by spiritual IN.
terpretatiou under the guidance OF
angels and ministering guardians. All
that there is new TO this book Is the
narration by Mr.. Bigelow of the man"
ner in which he became interested in
the Swcdenborgianism and the extent
to which he carried that belief The
work is, therefore, of small Importance,
and is not likely to make much of Il
stir in the world. The erratic notions
of prominent men are past finding out,
and Mr.. Bigeow' g idea about Sweden

a suggestion that the two be compared.
The November issue is in the usual

arc so familiar with, and n very good
form it has been. But the Christmas
issue is in so great an improved form
that one is at Il loss to express his ap-
probation of the amendment. In the
latter the pages are enlarged, and the
makeup is sensationally changed. The
reading contents are Of the highest or

greatly improved. The large pages give
room for illustrations and embellish.

but also distinct improvement,
