Magistrate McAdoo yesterday to hold

picable fraud

Burns had been one Of his guards.
Mr.. Beck declared that Burns did
not violate Section 500 Of the Penal
Law because he did not publish the
contents Of the Seymour letters in the
newspapers. Assistant District Attor-

the case. insisted that the legal defnl-

wrought him and his associates irrepar-
able injury.

SOME ELDERLY PEOPLE.

SOME ELDERLY PEOPLE AND THEIR YOUNG
FRIENDS. BY 5. Macnaughtan. l2mo. ID 30l.
T.. l.. Duuon a Co
One wonders if English people who
are elderly to-day can justly be called
Victorian" Even the Revolving Daugh-
ters and the Heavenly Twins are ap-
preaching middle age. However. people
move more slowly in England than they
do over here. and Miss Macnaughtan no
doubt knows whom she is writing about.
More to the point is the statement that
this is far and away the best book she
has written since she made her debut
with THE Fortune of Christina Nc
Nab" In fact, this is a far better
story than that clever frstling, for be-
meath the whimsical humor there is
here greater depth. trucr feeling, a
sounder perspective of life. The young
friends arc certainly ultra modern,
even the curate. who pronOunces every
frank PLAY he sees the "best sermon he
has ever heard outside a church He,
however, is certainly Mid-Nictorian,
only he would hide the fact Now. these
elderly people have lives Of their own
TO live, full lives, Notwithstanding
their occasional preoccupation, divided
between envy and disapproval, with the
affairs of their juniors. Indian sum-
mer. too. is season for romance. Miss
Macnaughtan holds the scales even;
each age has its disappointments. its
regrets. but also its compensations.
Throughout seriousness and humor are
mingled. The dialogue sparkles from
first to last. Love, marriage and the
difference in the attitude of both gen
erations toward them furnish most of
the substance of the t9le. Then, Of
course, there is the votes for women
movement and all it implies. The
episode of Clementine's attempted ar
son in passionate protest against poor
Mrs. Seddall's many husband-inflicted
wrongs is pure comedy. The story is
delightfully."-, whimsically companiona-

THE HERMIT DOCTOR OF GAYA.


THE HERMIT DOCTOR OF GAYA Lov.
Stor Of Modem India BY J. a. r. Wyiie
l2mo. ID $50 C. r. Putnsm's Sons
There is perhaps little too much Of
plot in this new story of India, but it
all makes good reading. Kipling did
not exhaust the possibilities of the
country and its peoples The minor
fiction which they had given us before
his coming has gone on unaffected by
his influence. and still is with us to-day
A photography of Anglo-Indian fiction
would fill many columns, and recall
many forgotten books excellent of their
kind and worth rereading. !. A. r.
Wylie has the gift of continuing this
minor tradition worthily. Her white
rulers are Of the Simla type-after all,
Kipling did not invent it-and her ma
tives are certainly convincing enough
for her purposes and the readers. So
here is a tale of member of the Ind
ian Medical Service, the hermit doctor
who dwells with the natives and serves
them; of an isolated garrison of native
troopers and a handful Of English Off
GERS and their wives; Of q Eurasian,
rich. educated. who would be accepted
by his fathers people and stumbles
over the infexible barrier of race; of
an Anglacized rajah, European dancer,
and of mutiny whose murmurs grow
louder as the tale proceeds There are
love and marriage, quite distinct, and
adventure and heroism and treachery
and mystery according TO the long
tradition.

The disease, which was discovered

1t manifests itself in a weakening Of
the stalk, so that the corn plant is

Animal Seems Doomed TO Pass thl
Rest Of Her Life In Travel
on the Ocean.N

On the Cunarder Alaunia, which
arrived here from London for the
second time since the outbreak of the
war, came a veritable dog of war,
with short pedigree and long rec
ord as ships mascot, the New York
Times states. The Alaunia has been
engaged as a transport, making four
trips to the DardanelIes from Eng
land, carrying $500 each time; one
voyage to India, and the last one to
Bussorah, in the Persian gulf, with
1880 infantry to re-enforce the
British expedition against the Turks.
Nelly, the brown sheep-dog mas
cot, has had en- exciting career.
When the war started Nelly heard
the sound of the fife and drum and
followed a Kentish infantry brigade
to Boulogne. At the battle of Mons
Nelly became separated from her
command and joined a naval bri-
gade.
Somehow Nelly got on board the
battleship Goliath and went to the
Dardanelles in the spring of 1915.
She was aboard when the Goliath
was torpedoed, but liked the smell of
salt water, so she forsook the land
and swan off to a mine sweeper.
More Of a hoodoo than a mascot,
Nelly's new home once more was
hoisted into the air by a torpedo.
Then the crew of the superdread-
naught Queen Elizabeth adopted her.
When a number of the crew were
sent back on leave aboard the Alau-
mia they took Nelly with them, but
the board of agriculture, in spite Of
her war record, would not allow the
torpedo-tossed dog to land. Nelly
then became a dog without a coun-
try and travelled to India and Persia
on the Alaunia. Her future fate is
still uncertain.

sin station found that pigs from ma
ture sows average 20 pounds heavier
at eight months of age than the prod.

The farmer who breeds his gifts to
farrow at II to 10 months old is the
one who says that he cannot afford to
keep old sows. He fattens the gifts as
soon as they have weaned their litters,
turning them off in September and Sc
