OUR TIMES. by Mark Sullivan.

OUR TIMES. by Mark Sullivan.
 Mark sullivan in the first volume of this. history of Our Times has written a new and different kind Of history. Its keynote is the note of change. He has conceived history as a recreation of the past and of the changes that have come to the average man in that past. From the usual and formal historical view point some queer fish are gathered in his historical net. What he has done is 10 recreate as nearly as possible the day-to-day existence of inc men and women of 1900 to l9o4. IL sets forth the rageantry, tho greatness, the fooliShnoss, wis dom and whimsicalities Of the pass ing show of twenty-five years ago, These are rccaptured out of the past and put between the covers of a hook for the delectation of those who remember as well as for those who 1ro 10 come after us Literary Kcri,n. 913.a-Su5

!.
 The Immigrant" who writes this new book on Japan is not q globe trotter but q hou$eh"cper. She is an American woman who settled with her family for several years, firet in the foreign colony of Yokohama. then in a typical small village. She has seen the country not from the windows of a railway carriage but from those of her own home. The chief impression left by the volume is that. despite the best of will great barriers exist between for oigners and Japanese which arc not to be removed merely by settled residence. Mrs. Godfrey acquired a real respect for eastern civilization and traits and feels that sympathy with these will avert any racial mis- understanding, even the possibility of war. Books, 9l5."-G29

TOXIC IS MYST|F|ED
BY KNIFE THROWING
Believed ''Inside Job" But
Incident Is MinimiZed.
No Arrests Yet.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
TOXIC, September 2O.-Although
score of police are working on the
knife throwing mystery which intrud-
ed upon the formal serenity of a
luncheon at the British Embassy in
honor of Crown Prince Gustav Adolph
and Princess Louise of Sweden, no
arrests have yet been made.
Government officials and members
Of the American Embassy staff seek to
minimize the incident and the news
papers are not publishing it.
It is generally believed that the
Brazilian knife thrown by the intruder
at Roger Tilley, son of the British
Ambassador, Sir John Tilley. when the
young man dashed toward the window
at which he saw a strange face peep
ing in, was intended for the Ambas-
sador, but no motive is apparent.
Due to the reticence of those pres
ent, a clear cut impression of the hap
pening is not obtainable but it seems
now there was little confusion at the
table when the incident occurred.
Few of the guests understood Young
Tilley's sudden dash toward the win
dow where he was struck by the hurl-
ed missile and which he picked up
from the Veranda and pOcketed. He
returned soon to the table and later
told representatives of the imperial
household what had happened.
Princess Louise realized that there
was something unusual occurring, but
insisted on going ahead with the
luncheon as though nothing had hap
pened The Prince apparently knew
nothing of the matter until later.
The police suspect the affair was
IAN inside job the knife employed
being a relic belonging to Ambassa
dor Tilley. but they have checked up
each employe without developing any
information to identify the intruder
or to explain any reason he might
have for wishing to harm any one
present at the luncheon.
