The government is silent as to re-

Diaz has been met with much approval

At 5 p. m. it was stated that Diaz
had dema nded the surrender Of the M

were firing at The palace. Many shells
struck the fortifieations Of federal

tions. Svo. PIP xiii. 3s2. G. p. Put

Miss Fuller has written a very pretty
book of memoirs. NJ. Claretie and
Alexandra Dumas, she tells US, in
duced her to write it. and NJ. Anatole
France has contributed an introduction
eulogistic in the extreme. The book is
so sunny. so chatty and unaffected that
the authors attitude toward the matter
Of its composition, as a long. "formi-
dable," terrible task" is decidedly
quaint. 1t is easy to see why every
body who knows her should like the
lady. She is so absolutely unspoiled.
But we have searched in vain through
these pages for any evidence OF the
marvellous" qualities of mind which
NJ. France so graciously attributes to
her Those most delicate, the subtlest
things about Curie, Nine. Curie, Aug
uste Rodin and other geniuses" which
he has found in her conversation are
not in her book. But she tells in
bright and interesting way the story
Of her career, discusses the evolution
OF her art, with observations on the
dance in general, and gives many en-
PERTAINING and sometimes Vivacious
anecdotes about her distinguished
friends. Her glee in her successes
after dark struggles, is very appealing,
as where she says Of such or such an
audience, 1T gave me an ovation such
as. l suppose. never another human
being has received"
Miss Fuller made her first appear
ance on real stage at two and a half
years of age. when she recited Mary
had a little lamb" Her mother was
"dazed" at her performance. and

scription Of the latest types Of sub
marine boats. The art Of deep sea div
ing is almost as old as the human race.
Mention OF its employment occurs in
Homers "Iliad." And submarine engi-
neering is a science which to-day Is
rapidly increasing in both commercial
and national importance. Thucydides
was the first TO state that divers were
employed during the siege Of Syracuse
TO destroy the submarine barriers
which had been constructed TO prevent
the entry of Grecian war vessels. The
warfare, unless this peace business is
fixed up shortly. of tomorrow will be
largely in the heavens above and most
certainly much in the waters beneath
the earth.
In this volume the mysteries OF sub
marine boats are explained; the reader
Is told what submarine can do; about
the life OF a torpedo, submarine eX-
plosive mine, submarine signalling,
salving by submarine boats. submarine
blasting, some wonderful submarine
works and some submarine industries.
There is an interesting chapter OF talks
with deep sea divers, and the miscel-
laneous items Of a divers gear are de-
scribed. We learn about submarine
pneumatic tools. pumps and air COM
pressors, the diving bell and airlock.
Many things very vaguely understood
by the non-technical reader are made
quite plain, and some popular falacies
are cleared away There Is a forecast
Of the submarine engineering OF the
future. The numerous interesting Illus
trations and the many simple diagrams
in the book are illuminating.

The English Fiction Market.
An interesting statement concerning
the English fiction market is made by
a literary agent. He declares that the
supply Of romantic. adventurous stories
far exceeds the demand, while Of the
much wanted humorous stories there is
dearth. New humorists are greatly
needed Min and industrial stories, he
points out, are also called for.
Lord Lyonss Love Of Absurdty.
Among English books of the season
particularly calculated to appeal to
Americans is the biography Of Lord
Lyons, British Minister at Washing
ton during the Civil War. We may
leave for later treatment the passages
relating to his experiences there, and
merely quote this paragraph on his
love Of absurdty:
Lord Lyonss literary tastes were not
those OF the present generation. He de-
clared that he only liked verse that
rhymed and music with a tune. He loved
the sonorous sound OF Byron as he loved
the solemn cadence OF Latin verse. All
the time the love Of ahsurdty was never

There are some intimate reminis-

the shrine at Easter and TO bathe IN
their shrouds in the River Jordan.
Nothing had ever been written about
this pious, picturesque pilgrimage, even
in Russia, until Mr.. Graham published
the articles which form the nucleus OF
this book. In fact, the Western world
Is better informed concerning the Ma
hometan pilgrimage TO Mecca than
about this solemn act Of piety Of a
body Of Christians which, in the inten-
sIty of its devotion, in its sacrifices and
hardshps, is as a survival from the
Middle Ages. These pilgrimages, in
which from six to seven thousand
moujiks take part, are not organized as
are those OF Roman Catholics TO
Lourdes. for instance; the Russian
priest prefers TO keep the money they
cost in his own parish. But since 1891
the Russian government has given an

far as ii can, OF the welfare Of the
simple. untutored Russian souls that
venture upon the long Journey. often
with hardly any money. but always
with wealth OF faith. They need pro-
lection, for, as in the Middle Ages, the
pilgrim is exploited. deceived and
robbed, on the way and at the shrine.
His faith has been commercialized in a
shameless manner.
Mr.. Graham describes with burning
indignation this sordid contrast be-
tween the earthly Jerusalem and the
Golden City in the hearts OF the pill
grims. And thus he approaches once
more that soul OF Russia" which Is
the main subject also OF his earlier
books. He loves II, because he under
stands il; he finds It's perfect express
sion among these Old Believers, con-
servatives opposing enlightenment
moro tenaciously and successfully
than all the bureaucracy of Garland.
With all Its picturesqueness. it's con-
slant changes and contrasts OF descrip-
ton, the book is OF most value for just
this. that II once more offers to the
West an approach to the Russian tenn

suddenly, after silently boarding i'm
