S. r. Crockett,

The many thousands of people who
fiction, Sandy, must have experienced
a profound shock to learn of the
death this last week april 21sD OF its
author, S. r. Crockett. Somehow a
great many novel readers have come
to regard a Crockett story as a
pleasant annual event and the thought
that there can be at best but a few
more Of them-probably he left some
unpublished works a hard one to
realize. Mr.. Crockett never wrote a
more popular tale thai his latest
Sandy. 1t has been hailed country
wide as a wonderful return to the style
Of his first successes, possessing all OF
their b~rilliancy and color n mag
netism.
The following interesting facts or
Mr.. Crockett's life are quoted from the
Chicago Record-Herald - ut was
Crockett's good fortune that his home
was in q region Of romance n legend
and daring adventure. 1t was in Ouch
rae, in hat part of Scotland known as
Galloway, that he was born, September
"a, 1860. He was of a long line of
tenant farmers, and it is recorded that
at the age of three years he performed
daily tasks on the farm n walked
three miles to the parish schoo to
Wrestle with Latin as far as 'Omn1s
GaIlia' and through the Greek alphabet
until he was 15. He then entered Edin-
burgh University, from which he was
graduated in 1879. He completed
courses at Heidelberg and Oxford and
in 1886 became a minister in the Free
Church Of Scotland.
WITT the thrift peculiar to many of
his people, Crockett added to his re-
sources while at the universities by
tutoring and working for newspapers,
and in that way obtained training that
was useful when he yielded to the
commands of genius and began writ
ing novels. His experiences were
broadened by travels in North Africa,
Asia and some of the countries Of Eu-
rope before he assumed the ministry OF
Penicuik, a suburb of Edinburgh. That
step met the unanimous approval OF
all of his people, whose greatest am
bition was that some representative
Of their house should 'Wag his head
in a pulpit
Mr.. Crockett was not kept busy
enough in his church work to prevent
his publishing a book of poems in 1885
and soon he was led to abandon church
work for literary effort. The success OF
| j. M. Barrie had created a demand fol
stories in the Scottish dialect when
Crockett published his story of The
Stickit Minister in 1898. 1t was fol-
lowed by a rapidly produced series OF
popular novels dealing often with the
history of Scotland, or with his native
Galloway.
"'Mr. Crockett is a fighter for his
loves, his freside and his Shorter Cate
chism,' says one reviewer. Though
there are pathetic passages, the ro'
business of the men and the heroisn
of the women remove them from oul
pity to our proud enthusiasm. Wer'
one to seek the PURGE of Mr.. Croc'
kett's inspiration, lie would probabl!
find it in the Old Testament
I'm the years Of his success Mr.
Crockett remained a Scotchman. Hi
~recreations were golf, cycling an
roaming the mountains Of his nativ'
land, and his home vas at Torwood
PEBBLES, not far from Edinburgh"

A Story of the Prairies

Margaret Lynn, whose A S~tepdaugh-
ter Of the Prairie was published
May 9Th, emphatically denies that that
work is in the nature of autobiography.
That people have persisted in so inter-
preting the sketches of prairie life,
which have from time to time appeared
in the magazines under her name, has
been a source, of annoyance to Miss
Lynn. Such material in A Stepdaugh-
ter Of the Prairie as is not imaginative
is, she assures us drawn from the
"reminiscences Of others.
A S~tepdaughter of the Prairie is the
story of a little prairie girl in pioneer
times. With infinite charm h hap
penings of the days are reviewed and
the child's appreciation of the prairie
and all that it means-an appreciation
which increses with her years--is re-
vealed. Never has a more real book
of the great West been written, never
has a more vivid picture been painted
of a kind Of civilization that has pass

Fisher Ames.

Fisher Ames, an early American
statesman, orator and author, was born
at Dedham, Mass in 1853. After
graduating from Harvard college, he
studied law n was admitted to the
bar in 1881.
Early identifying himself with the
federal party, he rose to eminence in
it's ranks by reason of great practical
wisdom and commanding e%loquence.
In 1888 he was a member of the Mas
sachusetts convention that ratified the
United States constitution and in the
next year was elected to congress,
where he served four terms and was
one of the foremost supporters Of
President Washington's administra-
ton.
In 1896 he advocated the passing Of
John Jays treaty with Great Britain,
and some years later, while a member
of the Massachusetts council, he de-
livered a memorable eulogy on Wash
ington,
In 1904 he was elected to the presi-
dency of Harvard college, but his i'll
health obliged him to decline the
honor. Four years later 1903 he
passed away.
The following year, 1909, Rev. DR..
kirkland published some Of his most
notable essays and speeches which in
cluded his famous grafton in congress
on the British treaty, which has been
quoted in nearly every Grafton in
congress since at the time Of an
adoption of any treaty.

Both Sides of the Socialist Question
Socialism: Promise or Menace? bids
fair to become a very popular book.
The Socialists are buying it that they
may have in enduring form Morris
Hillquit's arguments in behalf of the
doctrine-and incidentally, that they
may see what Dr.. Ryan has to a
against it-and the opponents of So
cialiSm are no less eager for it, as in
their opinion DR.. Ryan has summed
up their. case more, fully and salts
factorily than ever before. It's a royal
battle that is waged between the
covers Of this volume, a battle between
men generally recognized as the leaders
of the thought of the opposing schools.
Socialism: Promise or Menace? is an
economy moreover, in that it does
away with the necessity Of buying two

when general man hunt began in

took part. They were startled by the
screams of the two daughters of A. F.

a negro in their hallway upstairs.
One of the girls screamed and the
negro ran, knocking over the other
girl. The burglar ran down the street
and regular moving picture chase
ensued. The negro was chased to the
woods beyond Piedmont park, his pur-

brush like fox hunters, but their prey
finally escaped.
