Abraham Nitric Rihbany's volume on
Wise Men from the East and from the
West" Here we find vivid and interest
ing comparison of Orient and Occident. an
Interpretation of the mind of the Fastener,
an evaluation of his virtues and an ex-
PLANTATION of his shortcomings. The East
erner according to Mr. Rihbany is es-
sentially a dreamer and a visionary: his
mind is largely occupied with ethical con-
cepts and abstract philosophy; he has little
interest in the material and temporal con-
Germs of life, and is the born artist in his
worship of the beautiful and the ideal The
typical Westerner on the other hand, is a
man of action rather than of thought: he
is the explorer. the adventurer, the path
finder. the warrior: he is dynamic rather
than static, energetic rather than medita-
tive. and. unlike his brother of the East
would rather discover a new continent than
originate new philosophy But though
the fastener is more submissive to fate
more careless of individual freedom and
more Indifferent to forms of government
than the Westerner, he has not contributed
less than his share of the civilizing in
fuences of the world, and a full develop

join hands

Sykes's discourse on Persia and Mr. Zia
Bey's volume entitled Speaking of the
Turks The former is a brief and there

the present; the latter is an Illuminating
study of the Turks of to-day. The author,

The District Attorney: His Temptations

If a District Attorney has been playing
politics and has found indictments fo:
mere effect, without any intention Of
trying them, based on outlandish and for
gotten statutes, or distorted applications
of familiar ones or ION general principles
in lieu of proper legal evidence, he usually
does nothing about them until after the
election in which his own fate is de-
termined If he loses, he doesn't care what
happens to them. His opponent will dismiss
them fast enough. If he wins-well, he has
won, hasn't he? Some day he will slip
into court when the press boys are across
the street. and recommend" that the
wretched bugbears be dismissed. 1t is
curious how rarely these legal chickens
in the shape of unjustified indictments
come home~to roost. They can almost al
ways be "shooed" away. There is generally
just enough that is malodorous about the
subject matter of the charge to cause the
accused, however unfairly treated, to pre-
fer silence to publicity-to be glad to have
the whole thing hushed up rather than to
demand trial.
And then, oh, then, there are the tough
nuts, the hard technical cases that no.

commercial cases, arising out of fraudu-

body loves them, nobody wants to be the

From the foregoing it may be inferred
that there is wide choice in the selection
of cases to be tried. If the "Di A." is a
would-be orator, or fancies himself as

political reasons, he takes the pick of the lot

The Personal Ibanez.

VICENTE BLASCO IBANEZ was
v born in 1867 in Valencia, of a
middle class Spanish family that
came originally from Aragon. He
is to-day in the vigor of his age and
the maturity of his talent. He is of
middle height and inclined to be
stout, with broad shoulders. The
face is of a fine oval shape, with a
forehead crowned with dark hair.
The nose is aquiline; the eyes
small and elongated, are full of
vivacity and intelligence, and throw
out from time to time flashes of
malicious humor. The lips be-
meath the little black mustache are
epicurean and voluptuous. All
the features are alive with health
and gayety. His talk is full
of good nature, of Southern verve
and warmth. The flood of his
words, accompanied by express
sive gestures, sweeps along tumul-
tuously memories, whims, sallies
and thoughts of a ripe wisdom; de-
scriptions and portraits limned in a
few words.-From "Blasco Ibdnez."
