cousiu. \ good many incidents in
medieval history arc not only various
~ told. but they are so divergent at
times that it is difficult TO judge what
is the true version. The purpose Of
this book is TO provide parallel source
with descriptive information that cf-
fective training can bc given in the
use Of source material. The wor, is
primarily for students, 1T presents five
problems based on very definite events
in medieval history that have also
n certain illustrative value, It is held
that the more intensive study Of
sources, which the arrangement Of the
book demands. should arouse greater
interest on the part of the average stu
dent, and should produce real appre-
citation OF the nature and Importance Of
sources as well as deeper insight iuto
the llfe and character of the people
described. The five problems dealt
with here are: "The Coronation Of
Charles the Great, "Canossa; from
Oppenheim to Foresheim, - "The Cap
ture Of Jerusalem in 1099,' "The De
parture of the University from Paris, -
and "The Coronation of Cola d
RieDzo.' y The work is largely teehni-
cal. 1t is thorough, and undoubtedly
should be of the highest Importance 10

frightened the horses that they ran

A STORY OF MEXICANS.

Published by Desmond litzGerald Inc.
New York.
This is story Of which the scenes
arc laid in Mexico. 1t is n stirring
aud dramatic prcsent-day story, with
characters all as natural as life. The
heroine Of the story is Chiquita. which
is quite natural; "a great artistic and
dancer, who has Indian blood in her
veins and is waited patiently by her
tribe to come and reign. She brings
her white chief with her, and both arc
accepted by the tribe; but that is only
after a vast deal of dramatic action,
OF anxiety, of trouble and occasional
blood she'd, Just as one would naturally
expect under intense conditions in
Mexico. The story is strong one aud
is made OF an intensity TO fit into the
passionate life OF hot.blooded people.

QUALIFIED VOTERS

There is some doubt in the
minds of many, regarding the
time OF residence necessary to
become a qualified voter. Any
citizen Of the United States can
vote at the primary election. who
has been a resident of this state
for a period Of six months, and a
resident of the county in which
he resides for a period of thirty
DAYS. prior to the time of election.
These facts are stated for the ben
eft of those who may be in doubt
as to their right to vote at the
coming election.
