presents the mental picture OF a hard,
cold. calculating. relentless captain OF
finance. who grinds down others that he
himself may mount higher; the author,
however, applies Il to one who r. the

gratihed TO know that the author has re-

describes so vividly. is the scene OF hap

original and at the same time real. The

villainous Spanish anarchist, his passion

are sketched with a master hand. There
may be different opinions as to interest

pute that IL ranks with the best the au-
thor has ever done.
