THE GOOD SOLDIER.

TIE GOOD SOLDIER A Tale Of Passion. by
Fo-i MsieS hue1eF. limo. 10. 2eA The John
Lane Company.
Il is. one supposes. matter OF taste.
Mr.. HueffCr has undertaken to tell a
tragedy; TO the present reviewer. at
least, the result is exceedingly bore
sore. The story is told in a confused,
discounted, and yet monotonous way.
with many repetitions that, evidently
intended 20 be cumulative in their eff
feet, IN reality invite to skipping"
In fact. the whole thing is exceedingly
hard reading. The tale is unfolded by
the American husband of a guilty
American wife, both impossible crea-
tions that lead one 10 wonder why Mr..
HueFer, an Enghshman, should have
chosen 10 deal with material so unmis-
tsksbly unfamiliar 10 him. Half the
PEOPLE in the book have heart dis
ease, wherefore the scene is laid at
Bad Nauheim. The stuff for a tragedy
OF the emotions and Of conflict Of char
aeter under the repression of social
conventions Is here, but its treatment
robs il Of its effect. The book is an
example OF how not to tell a story,
both In It's reliance upon the readers
collaboration. and in its wearisome re-
iteration lest that reader fail to under
stand.

HAPPY POLLYOOLY.

HAPPY POLLYOoLY. The Rich Little Poor Gfrl.
by Edgar Jepson. Illustrations BY Reginald Birch:
limo. pp. Slt. Indianapolis; The Bobbs Merrill
Company.
This is a sequel to "Pollyooly." In 1t,
the reader may remember, Mr.. Jepson
told the story Of wsif of the London
slums who escaped the workhouse by
sheer good fortune, impersonated the
kidnapped daughter Of a duchess at
odds with her duke, and settled down.
at thirteen, as the housekeeper of a
young barrister in chambers. There
was much more to the story, OF course,
which was altogether a pleasantly fan
cful tale. Pollyooly was good for an
other story-here it is; and the end
promises still more tales about this
little daughter Of poverty with the
beauty of the Dark barrels. The duke
and the duchess are still quarrelling
over their child in this new MARIA
tive; Pollyooly figures again In q case
of substitution-one suspects that the
author has the stage in view as her
ultimate destination-and, in the
course Of the fairy tale that her young
life continues TO be between intervals
of the soberest matter of factness, she
teaches little German princeling
table manners. Which Is a little too
hard on Germany, even In these days
of international hatred. Her friend,
the impressionable artist, is with US
again-this time Il is a florists as
sistant; and, of course, Pollyooly's
fairy prince, the Hon. John Ruffin.
Reginald Birch has found in Poolyooly
a most sympathetic subject for his
graceful pen.

CORK LEG BROWNS MAN
Buoyancy Kept His Head
Under Water Too Long.

Despite the life-preserving proper
ties of his cork leg, Captain Gustave
Claus of the coal barge Theresa Nc
Lain was drowned in the East River
yesterday afternoon. Claus was an
agile man despite his infirmty. and,
after visiting friend on the ice barge
Energy tried to make the four-foot
jump back to his own boat. He slipped
and fell in. The cork leg bobbed above
the surface, but it's buoyancy kept the
captains head submerged. An ambu-
lance surgeon with a pulmotor was
waiting to revive Claus when he was
RULED out by Harry Canopy, of 259
William Street, but it was 100 late.
The body of a man thought to have
been mate on the barge Charleston,
of the Mallory Line, was found near
Pier SO, North River, yesterday. The
man was about thirty eight years old.

weighed 1870 pounds. He was dressed
