BIBLIOGRAPHICAL DIFFICULTIES.

The compilers OF an English
Catalogue of Books, 1901 1886"
Messrs. Peddie and Washington, give
some curious information Of the diff
hculties that accompanied their task.
Contemporary book lists were not lack
ing, but they were deplorably incom-
plete. Again. the British Inland Rev
enue authorities Of the early nine
teenth century objected to the printing
Of the names Of the publishers in these
lists, on the ground that it constituted
an advertisement, and that therefore
an advertisement tax must be paid on
each title. Then there were ghost
books" which, in the photographers
phraseology, are not what they seem.

trustees TO apply TO the New YORK
Presbytery for permission to sell ootn
properties and to name. in the event
of such sales, a location for ne"
Presbyterian Church for the Harlem
district. These churches have voted 70
consolidate and to do so as soon as the
property Of either is sold. More than
100000 is involved.
The New York church has a pastor
in the Rev. George W. Arms, Jr, put
the Harlem Church is without pastor.
The purpose is to create one strong
Presbyterian Church in the region.
Efforts have been made to induce Purl-
tan Church to join, but these have
failed.

come pastor of the Scotch Presbyterian
Church on January 10. This church is

Madison Avenue Methodist Church.
st. Johns Chapel of Trinity parish,
in Varick St, saved in spite of many
threats to tear il down and of the ex-
tension of Seventh av. by the city, is
maintaining a school. with twenty
pupils, and Sunday services are taken
by the Rev. DR.. John Mockridge, vicar
of Trinity Church. The plan is to keep
the chapel open for a period of two
years at the expense of Trinity parish.
The Rev. J. F. Sutton, for many years
at Trinity and recently abroad for
study, has been assigned to Trinity
chapel, where services are still main
tanned, although it has been decided to
close eventually and offer the property
for sale.

HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN.
Every season brings its new editions
of Andersen's fairy tales, but the edl-
ton par excellence this season is the
one illustrated by that imaginative
artist, Louis Rhead, and provided with
an introduction by Mr.. Howells, who
addresses the grown-ups rather than
the Youngsters. Never" he says, "has
a beautiful talent needed an introduc-
ton less than Hans Christian Andersen
from the sort of glibness which is
asked to officiate in that way at lectu: es
and public meetings and in the fore
front of books. Every one knows who
that gentle Dane was, and almost every
one knows what he did. Every one es-
pecially knows what he did here in this
book, so that the index is about all
that is needed for the fathers and
grandfathers and mothers and grand
mothers. The great beauty of these
stories is the homely tenderness which
they are full Of, the kind of hospitality
which welcomes all sorts and conditions
of children to the same intimacy. With
their perfect naturalness they are OF a
delicate artistry which will take the
young children unaware of it's perfec-
ton. and will only steal into their con-
seriousness perhaps when they are very
old children. Some may never live to
feel the art, but they will feel the nat
uralness at once" Mr.. Rhead has pro-
vided over hundred full-page draw
