TsHE story of two brothers of pio-
= neer stock is combined with an un-
forgettable account of the American
expedition to VIadivostok during the
World War, in The Laurels Are Cut
Down" by Archie Binns. The author
of '.Lightship" in his new book has
again presented a significant and
finely written story.
1t is the story of the brothers
George and Alfred Tucker, their back
ground, and their adventures. The two
boys grow up at the turn of the
century in the Puget Sound country.
On their characters is the mark of the
vast forests about them, and III their
hearts the adventurous spirit of their
pioneer forebears.
Then there is a girl, beloved by
both of them. But even Clarice Jack
son cannot come between George
and Alfred. 1T takes war to separate
them, war and grave IN Siberia for
George. Alfred returns to find his
country and Clarice strangely changed.
Forces almost as destructive as those
he saw at work in Siberia are laying
waste his beloved Puget Sound forests,
and old ideals are being replaced by
passion for the sfioddy OF material
things.

where the hand of friendship would

says Mr.. Bolitho, were almost
shocked by his business-like air, and
they sometimes hinted that his dignity
was risked when he made so many
practical efforts to catch business for
Britain in the countries which he
visited"
Year after year the Prince con

Everything about it was selfish. For

its rank and file.

sabotaging the Princes triumphal
tour of India are considered by the
author as being In decidedly poor
taste. However, In spite of Gandaii's
efforts, the splendor of India was made
David's. In Gwalior, for example,
9. the Prince travelled to the palace
at the head of procession of jewelled
elephants; the one upon which he rode
was hundred years old, and when it
moved its colossal gold legs hun
dred silver bells tinkled on its Grim
SON mantle !. and when the great
men of Gwalior came to the Prince
they carried trays of precious stones.
and the table upon which the banquet
was served was stream of silver and
gold
Upon the completion of his tour
of South America the Prince ceased
his roaming, but, according to Mr..
BolitIo, something was missing from
his life Instead of freedom he was
faced with rigid court discipline. Ma
turally seIf-willed, he made a life
which took him into three worlds. One
was that of his good deeds; another
was that OF his fathers Court, which
irked him; and the third was circle
of friends which distressed his father
who suspected their influence"
The change in the Princes life
was reflected in his personal habits.
Once kind and considerate toward his
servants. he became petty. Again. on
the death of his father, the Prince
stayed away from his mother. at Fort
Belyedere, when he should have been
with her. He apparently suffered no
self-reproach, says the author. As for
the new Kings apparent wish to do
what was right, he adds, 1t was not
IN his nature to deceive other men,
but it was sad fault in his nature that
he was able to deceive himself" Thus,
he says, the Prince was sincere in his
promises to his subjects, whether they
were Maoris, Hindus or Welsh miners.
Naturally, there is a good deal of
attention paid to Mrs Wallis Simp-
son, even though relatively small
portion Of the book concerns her. The
sensational episode is handled saneiy
by the writer Viewing the tragic de-
nouement of Edwards reign from the
standpoint of one inside, Mr.. Bolitho
sympathizes with the monarch, even
though sympathy is not enough BY
his own shortcomings, or by his
changed character, if you will, the
King has failed and no longer merits
the throne. And yet the King is shown
ending his reign wisely and en-
seifishly towards the country" In his
last days and hours the unhappy King
IS shown at Fort Belyedere acting in
way that makes the world echo Mr..
Baldwin's words, Il honor and respect

ment of the New Haven Railroad shows drop of almost 100 per cent in values of the single year. Per- mits issued here in 1886 were for a value of $328, ,875, while this year in May there were only $167,550.
 AbbatOir Permit
 The largest permit issued here in May was for the municipal abbatoir, alias slaughter-house, in South Wa terbury, which was for a value of $35,000. The office of the Water bury building inspector explained to- day that although the May totals of this and last year are in great con- trast, the number of dwelling per- mits issued this year is far in excess of last years total. It was explained that several large construction jobs were completed in the months prior to May, andt hat would account for the decrease.
 No building permits calling for any large expenditures have as vet been issued for June in this city.
 This downward trend does not hold true in the permits issued by 24 other cities included in the sur vey of yearly comparisons, but it does hold true in the comparison of the totals of the April issuances and May issuances. A substantial drop is noted in the comparison of per- init values of $4,799, ,1O1 in April, and $3,960,615 for May, 1887.
 Hartford Leads
 The May list is headed by Hart ford with permits valued at $67,- O686 with Bridgeport second at $614,770 and West Hartford third with $533,168
 Naugatuck's report of comparison of May, 1886, and 1897, is exactly the same. In May, 1886, the total was $73,10 and in May, 1887, it was $73,100. Derby showed a decline, as did Torrington, Middletown and Willimantic.
