Il is something OF a daring venture
to rcpublish without alteration a VOL
umc seventeen years old. and yet this
II what HAvELoCK ELLIS has done with
.ifHrwGtiOns CIIoughton Mifiir and
Company. and the book has gained in
the interim. When ii was first pub
lIshPd In 1895 many OF It's readers,
dwelling more or less in the back
waters Of literature, felt aggricved
that these i've essays on N!etzsche,
Casanova. Xoia, Huysmans and ST.
Francis conveyed 81 little Information
upon their subjects. For. indeed. Mr..
Ellis uses his subjects as the preacher
does his text: az a mere starting point
for such general discourse as he IL at
the moment Interested In. Therefore
by the passage z time the books de-
feet has become IL virtue. The world
Is surfclted now with knowledge Of
these subjects. Three Of them at any

The only addition TO this now issue

which the author gives his reasons

sary for its. locomotfon. Commissioner
Leoky, OF ne Fire Board, last night
offered a resolution bringing them to
Trial. The men will be heard at the
next session OF the board. The case,
which will probably be test one.
will attract wide interest, as other
chal,fYeurs on the Fire Department

missioners CheatwoSd and Tyler. was
especially suxious tisat the facts in the

that the engine did not have gasoline
enough TO pull into town. In the fire
a colored wbman was burned to death.

BY the present rules of the de-
partmed khe captain is held respon-
sibie foft filling of the gasoline

times
When a report from acting Chief
RATIO was presented, II was shown that
the Fire Department had no reserve
hose. Immediately a sufficient supply
was ordered.

chiefs informed the board that they
had taken special pains to warn their
drivers not to speed. The captains
of the vasious automobile companies
are TO be held responsible for the
