The girls are the daughters of

Admiral tiske's career Spanned two
wars. the Spanish American and the

naval war and the latter one in which
the navy played not predominating
but certainly coordinate part He
shows interestingly the evolution of our
naval forces from their mOrihund con

efficient and adequate status. His
autobiography. however. is not a history
of a navy, but just what it purports
TO be-the story of man whose life
was spent in the naval service of his
country. II has much personal charm

ventures and plenty of humorous hap

was always receptive to new ideas and
it is Of record that in full uniform
he made one of the first trips in a naval
airplNuc in order to satisfy himself of
the availability of aviation in naval
warfare. His favorable conclusion had
a very important part in the organiza
ton of the naval aviation section. From
time to time his progressiveness ran
counter to bureaucracy and as matter
of fact, he sacrificed his future in the
way of high command in furtherance of

Middle West Of the thirties of the last
century was the object of Lincoln (
youthful romance. Doubtless her ex-
ample inspired some of the ambition
which pushed him from peak TO peak of
the career which was to leave him
martyred, among the immortals of
history.
Mrs. BabcOck takes this as her theme
the spiritual love of Lincoln for the

immortality and the persistence of the
spirit after physical death. She creates
an interesting background of the time

an excellent novel of the quasi histori-

love and delicate in its every touch.

NICHOLAS BIDDLE'S
CORRESPONDENCE
1t Reueais the Relations of the
J. p. Morgan Of His Time
to Important Questions

Nicholas Biddlc, who was the J.
Pierpont Morgan of his time, left a
vast mass of correspondence which has
been deposited in the Library of Con-
gress. He was president of the Bank
of the United States from 1922 until
1896, when he was elected president
of new banking corporation organ
lied under the laws of this state He
fought President Jackson in an at
tempt to prevent the destruction Of
the great bank and he was seriously
considered as a candidate for the presi :
deuCy.
There is no adequate biography of
him. Reginald &. McGrane. assistant
professor of history in the University
of Cincinnati, has announced that he
is preparing a life to be published in
the near future. In preparation for
writing the book he has studied the
correspondence in Washington aud has
found it so important in its bearings
on one period of American history that
he has edited that part of it relating
to public questions and put it into n
sumptuous volume. The book is n
valuable contribution to the history of
the period. II gives Biddle's side of
the bank controversy and it exhibits
Jackson as playing fast and loose with
the friends of the bank.
Among Biddle's correspondents were
Henry Clay. Daniel Webster, James
Monroe, John G.. Calhoun, Horace
Binney, John Tyler, Edward Everett
and Edward Livingston. Their letters
are included in the volume along with
Riddles replies, and they throw a new
hight on many controverted questions.
the volume is one which should be in
the library 'of every serious minded
student of American affairs.

They are sketches and essays which the

In the concert Of the Vatican Choirs
there were not more than three of four
really low tones called for in the motets
