A Bishop and a Boss

TIE CAST oF MARY SHERNfAN. By Jasper
Ewing Braly. illustrated ly charles y. Lesser.
Emo pp &c., Rruon publishing Company
Mr.. Brady tells what is in the main a
good story, but he does not tell il as
well a. il deserves. In both narrative
and conversation there is too much ex-
ploitation of the commonplace, and at
times there is an artificial stIltedness
that mars the illusion Of reality. The
character of the Bishop. too. seems
scarcely consistent. The man who took
his generous and heroic course in the
early part OF the book would not have
been so narrow and bigoted and un-
charitable in the latter. The Boss IS
more consistent. but he reverses and
transforms himself little TOO easily.
The phases of social life which the
author seeks to portray are, however.
perfectly true TO life. Precisely such
things do happen. and IL is not at all
impossible that they should now and
then be dealt with in the manner here
described. We do not know whether
the book was written with any view to
a propaganda; but if it was its end is
measurably attained. With all its
faults il tells an interesting story and
gives food for profitable thought.

Sir Henry Lucy on Dixie
Men and Women of Importance

1855. he had for the time reached the
apogcc of his fame From the Under
Secretaryship for Foreign Affairs, filled
with surprising ability, he had won his
way to Cabinet rank and the headship
Of an important administration.
Gladstone. having closely watched
his career. arrived at the opinion that
he would be his successor in the lead
crship of the House of Commons. This
view was expressed in letter TO Lord
Acton in 1854. As events shaped them
selves. this forecast would not only
have been realized, but would have
been carried a step further. Up TO
1855 the only competitor with Dixie
FOR the prize of the Premiership was
Chamberlain. lr 1894. when Gladstone
finally resigned, Chamberlain had gone
over TO the enemy with bag and bag
gage. To the end Dixie remained
faithful 20 Liberal principles, and
would undoubtedly have been by the
party nominated by reclamation TO the
Premiership.
The handwriting on the wall was
seen by the doomed minister under
dramatic circumstances. On the even
ING of Saturday, July Is, 1885. returned
home from a dinner given at tne Re
form Club TO celebrate the passing into
law of the redistribution bill, difficult
achievement largely due 10 his tactful
management, he found awaiting him a
letter from an old family friend asking
him to call on the morrow morning on
grave business matter At the in
terview he learned particulars Of the
allegation upon which an action for
divorce in which he was cited as CO.
respondent was instituted. The rest
OF this part Of the story is too well
known TO need retelling. Briefly, Sir
Charles found himself flung from the
eminence TO which he had attained, an
exile from Parliament. boycotted by
society. .,
II was q blow that would have finally
crushed most men. With what cour-
age and patience IL was faced, and how
Dixie, returned TO Parliament seven
years later by the Forest of Dean, won
his way back to much of his former
position. is admirably told by his
biographers. At one time il seemed
probable that he would be reinstated
in ministerial position, a prospect that
stirred up afresh the bitter animosity,
sedulously nurtured in certain quar-
tiers. that had beset him from the first
