1t is gratifying to learn from Mr..
Howden Smiths novel that life in New
York is at least no more unsafe to-
day than it was two hundred years ago.
harry Ormerod, an English gentle
man whose property has been con-
hscated In the civil wars, goes to
America at the suggestion of wealthy
London merchant for the purpose of
thwarting the designs of Murray. an
inscriptions adventurer, who has built
up large contraband trade with the
French colony of Canada. On the very
day of his arrival in New York
Ormerod is attacked by an assassin
armed with knife and tomahawk; and
this is rather better than the record
of the enterprising gunmen Of our own
time.
Other and wilder adventures soon
follow. Murray's trade is carried on
over n route significantly called The
Doom Trail, because death in its ma, +
horrible forms is the lot of any in
truders who penetrate its secrets.

| THE DOOM TRAIL. BY Arthur d. How
den Smith Published by Brentanos.
TNHEsE two historical novels have
IN common quality OF robust ac-
Il tion. The England of William
III is somewhat moro civilized
than the America of the early Colonial
period, but DR.. Jenkins's sword duels
are no less exciting than the toma-
hawk fights of Mr. Howden Smiths
story, The two novels also possess II
certain similarity of method. In both
cases the ostensible narrator is the
principal actor, and this helps to over
crecps into the telling of stories of a
bygone age.
DR.. Jenkins. who is himself we be-
lieve, a minister, has riskcd the eter-
nal eXcommunication of the Rev. DR..
John Roach Straton by making his
heroine an actress and painting an at
tractivc picture of stage life in the
days of King William. Annc's tenn
pestuous love affair with VIII Mount
fort, the actor, is described, together
with the killing of the actor by Lord
Mohun and Captain Hill. This last
episode, it will be remembered. is re-
corded at some length in Macaulay's
voluminous history of Williamite Eng
land.
The gorgeous, exotic stage setting of
princess Salome" is lacking in "Thc
Bracegirdle." However, the author
loses none of the credit which he
gained by his first venture in histori-
cal fiction. He brcathes genuine life
into the progress of the plot. The /
thwarted conspiracy against the life of
King William and the duel with the
viilainous Captain Hill are only the
high lights of a narrative that fairly |
sparkles with coorful activity.
"The Bracegirde" is vivid pano
lama of London stage life in the days
following the Revolution of 1858. The
author has studied the period care
fully, and his book is quite free from
the anachronisms which are apt to oc-
cur in the best regulated historical ro-
mances. Best of all, he has succeeded
in making his heroine at once plausi-
Bile and altogether charming. The pic
ture of Anne Bracegirdlc, surrounded
by her Gordon of noble admirers and
ncr one faithful lover is calculated to
endure in the mird of the reader.

"A MONG the new Victor releases
"A for October is the second record
by Enrico Caruso to be issued
since his death. 1t is a secular record,
from an opera now nearly forgotten-the
%Salvator Rosa" of Antonio Carlos Co.
mes, greatest of Brazilian composers.
The number is barcarolle-like melody
sung by Genariello, a boy servant in the
studio of Saltwater Rosa. Originally
sung by a soprano, Caruso reawakes
the great days in singing it, in all his
an air incredibly Italian, considering
its origin, rising here and there, as
Caruso records will, to unrivalled
pitches of intensity.
Probably the greatest of American
popular songs, "Old Folks at Home"
has been persistently misused by those
unable to conceive melody for them.
selves. When you hear Galli-Curci
sing it. as she does on a new Victor
Record for October, you realize again
the original power of it's homely feel
ing. 1t is here sung by one of the
sweetest voices that ever shaped a
phrase, in style of simple and ex-
quisite purity with friendly little
trace OF accent.
Nine Ameiita Gaili-curci,
who sings "Old Folks at
Home" on a Victor Record
this month, used to tramp the
streets of Milan, giving music
lessons for less than dollar
apiece. Her first opera con-
tract was for a period of three
years at $6.25 each perform
ance.

opera, "Herodiade," demands Just

Giuseppe DeLuca's, adequately to in
terpret the intensity of its dozen surg
ing emotions. "Vision Fugitive" elect
ing Vision). the vision of the purple
tetrarch of Galilee," in love with sa-
lone, affords this great baritone full OPP
portunity to record new triumph of
pure singing and character portrayal
Beneath the glitter and clatter of
most so-called Spanish music" is
splendid depth and soberness. The
andante movement from Lalo's "Sym-
phone Espagnole," which Mischa Ell
man has chosen for new October
Victor Record forms an excellent ex-
ample of the finer elements of the
music of Spain. 1t is mostly in minor
key, the deep, sombre tones of the G
string being relieved by others of al
most piercing brightness. The emotions
take first place. but for lovers of tech
nique there are notably fine glissando
and some beautifully clear harmonics.
An odd scene, even for Italian opera,
finds its way to one of the October Vic
tor Records. Tito Ruffo sings it-that
moment from "Ernani," where Don
Carlos, King of Spain, has overheard
a conspiracy against himself while
concealed zeal in the tomb OF 6 charlsamagne
miei" Ooh Bright and Fleeing Shad-
ows)-he dilates on the uncertainty of
life and human affairs. Ruffo makes
1t completely realistic.
