a change have a hundred years made in our ways of thinking and doing. Especially interesting and valuable is the concluding chapter, "The River Thames," touching, as it does, upon so much of the living history of the metropolis of the world. London, Paris, and Berlin. The brilliant author of "With Kitchener to Khartum," George W. Steevens, succumbed to fever in the siege of Ladysmith. Among his posthumous papers and some of his " Daily Mail correspondence, he left some racy writing descriptive of three great peoples as represented in their capital cities. "Glimpses of Three Nations" (Dodd) is the title of a volume on London, Paris, and Berlin. The hundred pages devoted to the great world centre are brimful of information about London as a bustling, bustling commercial city. One can almost walk the streets and see over again the crowded thoroughfares, hear the confused roar of the vehicles, and experience the unparalleled prevalence of dirt. The English people, however, almost entirely escape characterization. Paris, on the other hand, is described in a characterization of its people. The boulevards, cafés, and races, are depicted in the manifold and multiplex French character, who frequent such places. The author went about with eyes and ears open, and with rare skill describes just what he saw and heard in the great French capital. Berlin receives slight attention, but the German people, and especially the army, come in for liberal treatment. Precision, plenty of time, and authority, seemed to him to be about the most striking traits of Germany. The Kaiser's army impressed him as the best organized and the most formidable among the nations of the earth. He was apparently awe-stricken thereby, and sounds a note of warning to England. Though somewhat scrappy at times these glimpses are good reading. A pleasing story of a quiet life. A touching account of filial piety pervades Miss Beatrice Marshall's modest biographical sketch of her mother, Emma Marshall (E. P. Dutton & Co.), a popular and wholesome writer in the genre of domestic fiction, whose two hundred or so volumes afford a purer and saner form of enjoyment than the more highly spiced wares which the popular taste now asks for. In more than one regard Mrs. Marshall's placid and uneventful, yet in its gentle way strenuous and earnest life, recalls Mrs. Oliphant's. It was the lot of both these excellent women and devoted mothers to ply unceasingly the laboring oar in behalf of their loved ones; both toiled on with unflagging cheerfulness to the end. Happily, public appreciation of the fruit of their efforts was not lacking; so that in both cases one is spared the painful record of actual privations and hope deferred. Mrs. Marshall's life was mostly spent in the cool seclusion of cathedral cities, in the shadow of their reposeful minsters, and within the sound of the chimes which one seems to hear echo ing from the pages of the books in which she mirrors the life in these "pleasant places" where the spirit of an age more devout than ours still broods. The author has divided her narrative under the chapter-headings Norwich, Wells, Exeter, Gloucester, Bristol each chapter thus embracing the period spent by Mrs. Marshall in the town indicated. In fine, the volume is a readable one in its unpretentious kind, engagingly written, and strewn with letters not uninteresting in themselves and worth preserving for the sake of the signatures they bear. The pleasing illustrations call for special notice. Life in the merchant service. We do not know if youths nowadays, even in the sea-board towns, are so commonly bitten with the yearning to "go to sea" as were youths of a half-century or less ago. But to those who are so bitten we can honestly recommend Mr. Frank T. Bullen's little book entitled "The Men of the Merchant Service " (Stokes) as precisely the one for them to read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest, before setting foot on the first ratline of the arduous ascent to maritime prosperity. Mr. Bullen has aimed to supply the want of a comprehensive, readable, and so far as possible untechnical account of the conditions of life in the Merchant Service, to which the boy who means to go to sea, or who thinks he might possibly like to go to sea if only he could get a fair notion of what sea-faring is like beforehand, may turn with confidence; and Mr. Bullen has succeeded, as usual. Conditions on steamships and sailing-ships (Mr. Bullen confesses to a pardonable predilection for the "wind-jammer"), on "tramps" and on liners, the duties and qualifications of Masters, Mates, Bos'uns, Carpenters, Sailmakers, Stewards, Cooks, Able and Ordinary Seamen, Engineers, "Boys" the entire personale of the merchantman, in short, are discussed in detail, and with the authority of ample experience. Mr. Bullen writes most interestingly, and his book stops a gap in sea literature. A book of whales. No better title could have been found for Mr. F. A. Beddard's really erudite work than "A Book of Whales" (Putnam). Not only is it all it asserts itself to be, but it is the first book in the English language devoted exclusively to a popular account of these large, useful, and good-natured beasts. Mr. Beddard is convinced that the biggest of the existing species of whales, Sibbald's rorqual, is the largest living creature of which the earth has record, not even the Jurassic period with its wealth of monstrous reptiles having any brute transcending it. While the work is sufficiently technical, it is not without much interest from a purely popular point of view. A section devoted to the bloodthirsty grampus, which fearlessly attacks its larger cousins, has some of the fascination of Hugo's story of the big squid. It is interesting, too, to read that evolution seems to point to the ancestral or potential whale as being akin to the armor-clad armadillo or pichiciago, possibly through the glyptodonts. As a whole the book is clearly written, and it is a worthy addition to the "Progressive Science Series," of which its author is the general editor. Some of the great battles of the world. "The Red Badge of Courage" established the reputation of the author of "Great Battles of the World" (Lippincott). Stephen Crane's vigorous pen pursued a brief but notable career. It is therefore with the greater interest that we examine the content of the present volume. Nine great battles are described with more or less detail. They are Bunker Hill, Vittoria, the Siege of Plevna, the Storming of Burkersdorf Heights, Leipsig, Lutzen, the Storming of Badajos, the brief Campaign against New Orleans, and the Battle of Salferino. But it is with a sense of disappointment that we lay down the book. The author in most of the cases is not the same vivid portrayer of events that we have been accustomed to see in his other works. There is a kind of unevenness in the style, almost a lack of energy in places, that grows wearisome. But in a few cases, as those connected with the Swedish Campaign, and the battles of Leipsig and Lutzen, there is more wholesouledness and movement that grips the reader and carries him on to the end. This posthumous work will not increase its author's reputation, but it is a treasure to his friends because it embodies some of Crane's last literary work. An argument for peace as against war. After an argument between Brain and Brawn extending through the pages of Mr. James H. MacLaren's "Put up Thy Sword" (Revell), the author decides, somewhat obviously, in favor of peace as against war. That such a demonstration should be necessary at the beginning of the twentieth century is, perhaps, the most remarkable thing about the book. All the ground has been thoroughly threshed over by the wise in former ages, all the pleas for war as a development of character have been answered by the statement, attributed to President David S. Jordan, that all America's wars then should be civil wars, in order to give ourselves the entire good of them; and the whole matter seemed settled in the estimation of thoughtful men and women long ago. But the appearance of this compact little volume makes it apparent that there is still demand enough for a knowledge of the Ten Commandments and the Golden Rule to warrant its publication. A readable sketch of Eton College. "Eton" (Macmillan), by Mr. A. Clutton-Brock, is a compendious but readable historical and descriptive account of the famous school where Udall and Keate flogged, and Shelley mused, and which Gray celebrated in a poem that Dr. Johnson disparaged. This is the third volume in the "Great Public Schools" series, the object of which is to give a brief yet for the general reader satisfactory account of these schools as they are to-day. Mr. CluttonBrock outlines in his opening chapters what it is essential to know of Eton's historic past; but his space is mainly devoted to describing the present buildings, studies, usages, etiquette, sports, and so on. The forty-six photographic plates are fairly good in their kind. BRIEFER MENTION. Mrs. Margaret E. Sangster has her own audience, gained by many years of careful, thoughtful work. Her "Winsome Womanhood" (Revell) carries on the work with which her name has been associated, being addressed to women of all ages from fifteen years onward to the point where, her work as wife and mother done, she is "waiting for the angels." Photographs of great beauty and artistic posing from the faces and figures of beautiful women and girls add to the attractiveness of the book, which is one of much spiritual significance. The sentiments contained in Mr. Austin Bierbower's "How to Succeed" (Fenno) do him every credit, and the world would be a happier, a better, and a wiser place if it should adopt them literally. While lacking any striking originality, the book is based on the fundamental moralities of the existing world rather than on the teachings of Jesus, which contain too lofty an ideal, seemingly, to be "practical." It would be hard to imagine a book based on the certain knowledge that the rich have no more chance in the Kingdom than the camel has to pass through the eye of a needle, with the unavoidable inference that riches are to be shunned as Heaven is to be sought! The Baltimore "Sun" is planning to make a somewhat more elaborate feature of its literary criticism than is usual with daily newspapers. Beginning this month, it will have a page or more of such matter every week, under the editorship of Dr. Guy Carleton Lee, of the Johns Hopkins University, with the collaboration of many writers from the various colleges of the country. This is the way in which the thing ought to be done, and we wish that other journals would follow so excellent an example. NOTES. "A Shorter Course in Munson Phonography," by Mr. James E. Munson, is a recent publication of Messrs. G. P. Putnam's Sons. "An Elementary Grammar of the Spanish Language" and "An Elementary Spanish Reader," both the work of Mr. L. A. Loiseaux, have just been published by Messrs. Silver, Burdett & Co. Messrs. D. C. Heath & Co. publish" A School Grammar of the English Language," by Professor Edward A. Allen. It is an excellent book, prepared by a man who is both a sound scholar and an experienced teacher. Herr Heyse's "Das Mädchen von Treppi" (Heath), edited by Professor Edward S. Joynes, and Herr Heinrich Seidel's "Wintermärchen" (Holt), edited by Dr. Corinth Le Duc Crook, are German texts recently published. Volume IV. of "The Letters of Cicero," in Mr. Evelyn S. Shuckburgh's translation, has just been published by the Messrs. Macmillan as a number in the "Bohn Libraries," for which they are the agents in America. The Macmillan Co. publish "Miscellanies," by Edward FitzGerald, as a "Golden Treasury " volume. Most of the matter has been reprinted before, but there are a few additions, and we are glad to have "Euphranor" and the other things in this convenient form. The Carnegie Library of Pittsburg send us a "Graded and Annotated Catalogue of Books in the Carnegie Library of Pittsburg for the use of the City Schools." It is a most helpful publication, and other large city libraries would do well to imitate the example thus set for them. The Oxford edition of "La Divina Commedia," published by Mr. Enrico Frowde, contains no word of English. It gives us Dr. Moore's text and Mr. Paget Toynbee's index of proper names, all in a beautifullyprinted and tastefully-bound volume at a moderate price. The Macmillan Co. publish new editions of "The Prairie" and "The Pathfinder," in volumes having a semi-holiday appearance, with illustrations by Mr. Charles E. Brock. We are not informed as to whether these two books are the advance guard of a complete Cooper, or merely sporadic issues. That old-time favorite, Sir George Webbe Dasent's translation of “The Story of Burnt Njal," has been reproduced by Messrs. E. P. Dutton & Co. in an attracive edition, which, we regret to say, omits the maps and plans, the appendices and index, and has even cut down the preface to much less than its original dimensions. "Cinq Scenes de le Comédie Humaine" (Heath), edited by Dr. B. W. Wells; Lamartine's "Graziella" (Heath), edited by Professor F. M. Warren; Corneille's "Nicomede" (Macmillan), edited by Professor James A. Harrison; and M. André Theuriet's "La SainteCatherine" (Jenkins), unedited, are the latest French texts for school use received by us. The American Book Co. publish "The Elements of Latin," by President W. R. Harper and Mr. Isaac B. Burgess. The same publishers send us other textbooks, as follows: "Outlines of Roman History," by Dr. William C. Morey; a revised edition of the "Manual of the Constitution of the United States," prepared a quarter of a century ago by Israel Ward Andrews, and now brought up to date by Mr. Homer Morris; and an abridgment of the "Madame Thérèse of Erckmann-Chatrian," edited by Mr. C. Fontaine. "Abraham Lincoln: His Book," just published by Messrs. McClure, Phillips & Co., is a facsimile reproduction of a small leather-covered memorandum book owned by Lincoln during the campaign of 1858. It reproduces both the newspaper clippings and the autograph notes which the owner put into it, and constitutes a curious and interesting souvenir of the great President. "Who's Who" for 1901 appears with commendable promptitude, and is supplied in this country by the Macmillan Co. It is indispensable as a book of reference concerning living Englishmen, and a sprinkling of American names gives it some degree of special usefulness on our side of the Atlantic. But this feature does not make our own "Who's Who in America" any the less indispensable. With close attention to the words and rhythms of the original, and an almost exact reproduction of the rhymes, Mr. J. M. Morrison has translated "The Poems of Leopardi," into acceptable English. Only three of the thirty-four "Canti" are omitted from this version, which is to be commended for its faithfulness to the text, and for the not infrequent felicities of its diction. Messrs. Gay & Bird, London, are the publishers. The second volume of Mr. Samuel Albert Link's "Pioneers of Southern Literature," published by Messrs. Barbee & Smith, Nashville, deals with various war poets, humorists, and political writers, and with one great singer. The chapter on Poe will naturally attract the most attention, but the other chapters are the more valuable for students of our literature, merely because they present much information not easily accessible elsewhere.
