THE DUBLIN RISING

A third book on the latest Irish ris-
ing has made its appearance. 1t IS
called 1.-THE Irish Rebellion Of 1916 and
It's Martyrs: Erin's Tragic Easter" and
is the work of group of Irish writers,
among them Padriac Colum, James
Reidy, the Rev. T. Gavan Duffy, Mary
Ryan (who was in Dublin acting as a
Red Cross nurse with the insurgents
during the rebellion), Mary Colum
(who was on the teaching staf of the
school conducted near Dublin by
Psdriac Pearse, president of the short
lived Irish Republic), Sidney Clifford, a
sister-in-law Of MacDonagh and Plum
kett. who were both executed, and
Seumas O'Brien. The book also cor
tains brief sketch of previous Irish
rebellons, thus giving the historical
perspective. 1t is profusely illustrated
with portraits Of the leaders and photo
graphs of the scenes of fighting in
Dublin. OF its two parts, the first deals
with the history and causes of the re-
bellion, the second with its personali-
ties and ideals. IL bears the imprint Of
the Devins-Adair Company.

nobody but Daniels would pretend
that il is possible for US TO present
such a feet or that il would be posi-
BILE for US to do so after even years
warning.
That is partly because we have not
properly proportional feet, with bat
tleships, battle-cruisers. destroyers,
submarines, aeroplanes. tenders, shore
stations, etc, in balanced numbers;
partly because our navy, such as IL IS
is wofully undermined and IN disre-
pair. and partly perhaps most OF all
-becase we have not made the essen
tial study of strategy in grand war
games. Upon this last point Admiral
Fiske lays greatest stress, as properly
he should. For the necessity Of mas
terry of grand trategy is the cher oil
all the needs of successful naval war.
Strategy was the first secret OF success
of Rodney and of Nelson and OF Dun
donald. and it is the master factor IN
the world war of to-day. In the hrst
scheme of strategy, the handling or
fleet on cruise, long or short, we may
be sufficiently expert. We are mucn
less EXPERT in the second and more i'm
portant, which consists in detachlng a
few vessels from the feet and making
each represent a force of the enemy,
and then going through the strategy
and tactics of an engagement. Inc
third. and on the whole most impor-
tant. is that in which a feet is divided
into two fairly equal parts. which en-
gage each other. seeking each other out,
or the one evading while the other
seeks. in this we are not at all expert.
Il
"only three strategic problems or
manpuvres. devised at the Department,
have been worked out at sea-one in
Nav. and one in October, 1915, and one
in August, 1916. All belonged to the
second category"
But we cannot give here even the
most cursory synopsis of the authors
detailed answers TO his own questions
questions which are absolutely funda-
mental to the creation and maintenance
of ADEQUATE sea power. Suffice 1t 10
say that the answers are complete, and
are given in a way that handsomely
upholds what is one OF the noblest
traditions of the American navy, name
". that its responsible officers should
be men of scholarly and statesmanlike
attainments, as well as intrepid and
efficient warriors. Paul Jones, in found
ing the American navy, first Of all men
in the world enunciated that principle,
and left it to his successors as price
less legacy. And m,re than a few Of
those successors example, NJ. c.

canoe and distinction 20 II, and in the
work in hand Admiral Fiske has
brought the splendid tradition down 10

ume is an unsurpassed exposition of
what the navy should be, and Of what

mitted to prevail, unhampered by the
fads of landsman doctrinaires, the
prejudices Of Liliputian pacifsts or the
sordid intrigues of partisanship and

This is not merely a guide for am
bilious youth. Every newspaper reader
in this country will find it worth his
while, for it is entertaining as well
as informing. The author never fails
to draw from his long and wide ex-
! perience the right story TO illustrate
his points. Like all older newspaper
men he has a tender memory of the
earlier days Of country journalism,
when the paper was set up and printed
Ny hand, the days of the tramp printer,
and of the editor who was his own
entire staff. The tales of the begin
nlngs OF our great metropolitan dailies,
gradually lapsing into oblivion, gain

1t is, indeed, around the reporter
that Mr.. Seitz has written his little
book. The reporter is, after all, the
foundation OF the press's success, now
more than ever before, since news has
become so much more important than
| opinion. And here the training which
the book promises in its title appro-
| priately begins. There are schools of

school of practical experience, but the

has always been and will be-in the
news sense" One must be born with

or newspaper Offices. The cub reporter
who lacks it has left behind him a
/ trail of anecdotes.
And so up the scale Mr.. Seitz takes
us into the presence of the editor and
the managing editor. He assigns the
literary editor to his modest place in
the making of the newspaper, but

Mr.. Seitz, "the number of advertisers

GALLIPOLI
The Heroism of a Gigantic Allied
Failure

GAIIIPOLI By John Maseneld l2mo' ID -''
Tie Macmillan Company.
The Allied failure TO force the OAR
danelles by water and land almost and
perhaps fully Offset the Allied triumph
on the Marine. Many reasons have been
given for this failure; Mr.. Maseheld
gives them, and many excuses as we'll
But whether history will pronounce
these explanations valid may well be
doubted. The naval failure was the
greater one; the boundless confidence
with which the enterprise was an
nounced and undertaken sharply points
the contrast with the readiness with
which it was abandoned. The military
disaster can be compared only with that
of the expedition under the Duke OF
York. landed on Walcheren in 1893.
But all this is not to the point. What
Mr.. Masefeld offers US is prose epic
of the heroism OF the British, the Aus
tralians and the New Zealanders; Of
their exploits in holding on in the face
of all the reasons and all the excuses
of failure. in the face of lack OF water,
of uncertain supplies of food and am
munition, under murderous fre-not-
withstanding the lack of reinforce
ments when they were needed. TOO
late"-that is the explanation, for once
these heroes had victory within their
grasp. Whatever of censure may be
dealt out hereafter, none of it will fall
upon these sons of England who
laughed at odds and hunger and thirst,
at lack of ammunitions and support, at
burning heats. the diseases Of summer
and the crippling frosts of the early
winter on Gallipoli. Mr.. Masefield has
written a page Of heroism as fine and
enduring as any other which the war
has produced.
And he has written it with all the
mastery of his pen. His chapter head
ings are quotations from the "Chanson
de Roland" and they fit this epic of
modern bravery with arresting close
ness. He covers these brave men with
the trappings of the romance OF
chivalry. The dirt and the sweat and
the stenches, the privations and the
diseases of their campaign are truly
more romantic than is the shining
armor Of Charlemagne's paladin of old.
Il is war seen with the poets eye
piercing below the horrors of its real
ism which yet that eye has not deigned
to ignore.

SHAKESPEARE'S GENIUS
An American Scholars Tercen-
tenary Tribute

SHAKESPEARE. An address BY George Edward
Woodbury.. svo. pp. SO. Printed for the Wood
berry Society.
This slender yet stately volume con-
tains the address delivered by Profess
sor Woodberry at the celebration of the
tencentenary of Shakespeare's death at
Brown University. 1t has been print
ed by the Merrymount Press of Boston,
which means that in choice of type, in
the restful balance between type-page
and margin, in the simple dignity of its
title page and its gray board covers ii
is a worthy specimen of American ar
tistic bookmaking at its best.
The address itself rises TO the re-
quirements of the occasion. Professor
Woodberry did not merely say some
thing in response to the invitation; he
had something TO say that is of more
than the passing interest OF the mo-
mcnt. His tribute to Shakespeare is
genuine, from the heart as well as from
the scholars head and pen. And it
advances still another view of the
Bard's work. One passage must suf-
fee to prove the quality Of the whole:
The first incarnation of his
genius was in history; the last in
curnatlON, more pDHtIlully hplilb-
ed. was in fate. There was an in
terval when his spirit walked in an
enchanted pastoral land, sown.yith
wild forests and vistss wi Naly:
and there was an afterworld OF po-
etic romance, from which every
thing except pure reality has been
eliminated, which was MS farewell
TO life. In the Histories and
Tragedies VIC encounter reality
more distinctly OF our world-a
reality seen with the seriousness Of
youth in the one, with the serious
ness Of age in the other. What
gives 10 the Comedies their tran
quill atmosphere. their touch Of
fantasy, their other worldliness, is
the Renaissance, the preceding age
out Of which their characters
trooped, bringing their landscape
with them, together with their cos
tune, rcvels and speech. The sub
stance of the Comedies is the very
stuff OF the Renaissance in its
earthly look and mortal feeling. II
is world Of accidents CARRIED in
romance-the world Of the Relais-
sance imagination.

MCCLELLAN: A yINDICATIoN OF THE MILL
TARY CAREER OF GENERAL GEORGE b.
sIS 1p a. sss 9 iaRs' III. s.:s SansSf
Company.
1t is rather late in the day to at
tempt to rehablitate the military
reputation Of George B. Mcclellan. His
failings as soldier are now pretty
thoroughly understood. He did not
have the temperament Of fighter. lie
was,not com'ative, as were Lee, Jack
cor, Grant, Sherman, Thomas and Nc
fherson. He was an excellent or
ganizer and a competent, cautious field
commander of the second rank. But
il is useless TO tear history 10 tatters,
as Professor Campbell does, in the
hope of proving that Mcclellan was
the ablest Civil War general produced
by the North.
In a subtitle the author describes
his work as "a lawyers brief" 1t is
that exactly. But its extreme par
tisanship defeats its own purpose. Its
lack of anything like critical quality
or the appearance Of fairness must
make even the most credulous reader
pause and gasp.
In the main Mcclellan Is pictured
as a great military genius, thwarted
at every turn by conspirators at Wash
ington, who were willing to do almost
anything to deprive him Of the credit
of victory. These conspirators are
Stanton, and Lincoln and Halleck-
Stanton being the arch-conspirstor.
Stanton and Lincoln may have COM
mitted many blunders. They may have
foolishly withheld troops which could
have been used TO much better ad-
vantage II sent to Mcclellan. But to
say that they deliberately tried to
ruin McClellsn's campaign in the
Peninsula is absurd. In 1862 the Lin
coin Administration needed above all
things a victory which would wipe out
the memory OF the First Battle OF Bull
Run. Mcclellan had only TO win a
decided success with the forces at his
disposal land they were larger than
those opposed 70 him) to make his
position impregnable. so far as his
