“S0NG8 OF THE STEEL AGE."
By william Hurd Hlllyer. (Richard G.
Badger.)
In a very attractive volume Mr. Wil
liam Hurd Hlllyer, of Atlanta, has com
piled a number of hla delightful pneine
and verses. "Song* of the Steel Age"
Is a notabls production and It has re
ceived from the hands of discriminat
ing critics of poetry very much merit
ed praise. In speaking of some recent
ly published poetry, the reviewer of
The New York Times Saturday review
of books, In a late Issue of that stand
ard weekly, said some very commenda
tory and gratifying things of Mr. Hlll-
yer's work. The reviewer In question
ranksd Mr. Hillyer's poems far ahead
of the usual present-day poetic publi
cations.
"Songs of the Steel Age" consists of a
number of charming poems, which evi
dence unmistakable genius and that
subtle poetic power which differentiates
the poet from the simple verse-maker.
Those songs which give to the hook Its
title deal with thoughts upon the stren
uous work of the men at the front In
our Industrial world, such as engineers
of railway trains, pressmen, telegraph
linemen and so on. These poems are
very virile and forceful. In addition to
the poems mentioned, there are many
tuneful verses In the book. Special of
note should bs mentioned those under
the sub-titles of "Golden Arrows."
'Roars of Iran." "Fleurs de Lys,"
‘Atellan" and "Atlantis."
A great many of these verses have
been published In such auperior maga-
alnes ns Harper's Monthly, Llppln-
cott'a Magailne. Munsey's publications
and the Century. The whole collection
of Mr. Hillyer's work Is of .very rare
excellence, and It la a great pleasure
and source of pride to note end call to
tha attention bf lovers of genuine
poetry (of which there are many,) this
very superior literary efTnrt of un At
lanta man. The book la very hand
somely produced and la a beautiful ad
dition to any library.

"DEVOTA* By Augustn Evans WII.
son. (G. W. Dillingham Co.) The
mere statement that Mrs. Augusta
Evans Wilson has written another book
cause* great Interest, of course, but
when "Devota." a nhort story from her
gifted pen, comes to us In all of her
glory—her at'tllt'c. charming lire so and
her pleasing fascinarins • pereonallty—
It Is a groat literary event. The T-b"
Ushers of "Devota” have also accom
plished a benuttful piece of work. It
looks more like a holiday Christmas
time book than one we usually And at
this season of the year.
Whatever Mre. Wilson considers
timely nnd worthy of the consideration
of the'literary public, should be warm
ly welcomed and cordially Indorsed by
the most discriminating readers. There
Is a singular charm appertaining to the
life of thla brilliant Southern novelist,
dutslde of her rare Intellectual attain
ments. Springing from a long line of
cultivated men and women, Mrs. WII-
has Illustrated their beautify! vir
tues mid their unusual mental attri
butes through the many years in which
■he has been a conspicuous nnd distin
guished factor In the social life of Mo.
bile. Her handsome home on "Govern
ment street Is a treusure house of
beautiful pictures, valuable books, ele
gant old mahogany furniture nnd arti
cles of virtu representing many years
of travel and a broad and generous cul
tivation, combined with certain herodl-
tars' privileges.
As Is well known, Mrs. Wilson’s first
novel, "Ine*,” was written when the au
thor was only 18 years of age, and was
presented by her to her father, who
md not suspected his brilliant young
daughter's literary aspirations. In the
subsequent years Mrs. Wilson wrote
with remarkable facility.! yet evidenc

many novels which brought to her
large financial returns and a merited

fame, which became International in it*
far-reaching scope. Perhaps no Amer
ican author hns had her work trans
lated Into so many foreign languages
as has Mrs. Wilson. New that "De
vota" has been given to the reading
world In the sweet and mellow years of
Mrs. Wilson’s lengthening life. It be
comes an event of far more than or
dinary Interest and concern. Although
the story Is not a long one, It evidences
a literary strength and a rare intel
lectual power equal to any earlier work
of thla gifted Southern woman. Age
has but ripened and made richer her
remarkable genius. The South now
rightfully boasts of a number of young
women whose achievements along llt-
orar.v lines have brought them Into
enviable rivalry with the best writers
of this day of many book*, but the gen.
tie passing of years has failed to di
minish the hrnadth and power of Mrs.
Wilson's Ifit'ellcct nor have they lessen!
ed the charm and fascination of her
facile pen. The plot of "Devota" Is In
no sense complicated. It la. simply the
romance of two strong character* with
lofty Ideals and an unswerving purpose
to “reach the heights" morally and In
tellectually.
"Devota," n solf-contalned young
woman with feelings under powerful
control, had loved a promising young
politician years before. By not break
ing a promise to keep silent at a cru
cial moment, thla youthful statesman,
hail Iicen placed under a very dark
cloud, not only In the eyes of the pub
lic. hut more especially In the opinion
of the woman who mhe loved. The
latter cast him off. The young politi
cian emerges In time from the shadow
with truth and faith vindicated and
becomes the governor of his state. The
book opens twelve ot thirteen years
after Ills estramiement from "Devota,"
when she Is Induced to go to the gov
ernor to Intercede for the life of a hus
band of a friend who had been con
demned, to, death. It was thus Mrs.
Wilson adroitly brings the old lovers
together with the enevltable result. The
hook ends with the charming girl In
the arms of .her lover—never to leave
them any more. It Is a simple tale that
Mrs. Wilson tells, told In a rarely bril
liant faahlon. and many questions of
public nnd political Interest arc re
markably well discussed Incidentally.
But It Is In the delineation of her char
acters, the fine drawing of the situa
tions, the descriptions of the best and
worthiest social life to which the au
thor Herself has always' been accus
tomed, that she excel*. One feel* that
of the ;;!i.,.cr'Parties, eyen to the ar
rangement of the flowers, silver and
glass, that Mrs. Wilson speaks (Is one
of authority. "Devota" A'lll add If any
thing could, to the already great lit
erary reputation of Mrs, Wilson and
will give much pleasure to those who
are fortunate enough to read this In
teresting hook.
•LANGFORD OF THE THREE
BARS.” By Kate nnd Virgil D. Boyle*.
(A. C. McClurg & Co.)
"Langford of the Three Bars" Is a
pretty good story of ranch life In the
West. It really 1* so dlfilcult or seems
so from the numerous Weatern stories
which are published these duys nnd
from which we are compelled Jo Judge,
that to catch that elusive Western at
mosphere—that life In tlfe open—of
great distances, etc.. Is more than a
hard Job. "Langford of the Three
Bars" has. to a great extent, within
Its pages brought to our attention the
atmosphere of the desert country that
seems to elude many writers of West
ern stories. The trouble about moat
Western stories I* that the plot of all of
them If, practically the same. In all
of them « have the cowboys, the des
ert country, the cattle-rustlers, train
robbers, etc., and to make a »tor,v writ
ten about the West Interesting and dif
ferent the author Is compelled to grasp
the "atmosphere" to make his story
Worth the telling. In "Langford of the
Three Bars" we have practically the
same plot that -Is. served to us con
tinually by writers of Western tales,
but Judged by one who has lived In
the West and who has to a certain ex
tent come In contact with the Western
manner of men, "Langford of the Three
Bars” Is way ahead of most of the
pseudo-Western tales. To gain only
this Is a great feat. Alt the prospec-
live book buyer has to do to fix hla
mind on thla.point, namely, the enor
mous number of false Western tales
published. Is-to xa-alk Into any book
seller's place and see the shelves lined
with libels against that fascinating
country—fascinating, however, to some
people only when In their pockets are
return railroad tickets to "God’s coun
try."
"Longford of the Three Bars" Is sim
ply a story In which Paul Langford,
owner of a largo ranfh and a great
number of cattle, starts In to put an
end to cattle rustling in his part of
South Dakota. In this fight lie I* aid
ed by the county attorney. Richard
Gordon, In addition to which Is the
upright, unbuyable Judge, Ills niece, the
court clerk, and a few others out In
Dakota, not Influenced by the purchas
ing power of the cattle thieves. As
was very proper and convenient, Dick
Gordon fell In love with Louise, the
niece of the Judge of his court, who
was acting as the court stenographer.
Paul Langford fell In love with Mary
Wllliaton, nnd If the book t* telling the
truth, Paul married Mary. All well
ami good. Dick Gordon was net far
behind -Paul Langford, not only In his
pursuit and punishment of the cattle
mailer*, but In hi* love-making, for
hen the book ends, while Paul Is Just
waking up to the beauty «• asking
Mary to share his heart and home at
the "Three Burs,” Dick Gordon has
"DR. J. WEIR MITCHELL.'
been Louise's husband, for five months.
In tho end, after much tribulation,
disappointments, etc.. Dick Gordon as
the legal representative of South Da
kota prosecutes successfully and con
victs the troublesome cattle rustlers.
The plot of the story, as before stat
ed. amounts to very little, but when
ever a story written of the Western
desert, be It South Dakota. Colorado.
New Mexico or Arizona, really catches
the “atmosphere," or even a part of It,
say Just a zephyr, the credit should be
given and loudly spoken, tool “Lang
ford of the Three Bars" Is one of the
best Western stories written In a long
time. To one who has spent any tlms
In the West, on ranches, among the
cow boys, etc., books filled with long
conversations. garulous byplay of
words between Western people In the
books today published, is most surpris
ing. As before stated In these columns.
It Is a most unusual thing to see a lot
of cow boys hold long conversations,
for after a day's work these men, as a
rule, come Into the camp fire, sit down
and from supper to bed time never
open their mouths, except possibly to
borrow a match.
Trus It la, or was reported, that on
the desert of Nevada some time since,
five men were killed In a quarrel over
the pronunciation of the word "paresis."
still that case was a very unusual one
and to read Western stories In which
there are long speeches from the cow
men. It always (Ills with wonder the
reader as to Just where the author se
cured his Western types. Great dis
tances and high mountains create a se
vere economy of speech. The authors
of “Langford of the Three Bars evi
dently have lived In the West, anj
while their cow men are rather talka
tive—too much so—to be really true to
life, the book Is one of the best of the
Western stories.
"CONGRESSMAN PUMPHREY,
THE PEOPLE’S FRIEND," by John T.
MeCutcheon. (Bobbs-Msrrlll Compa
ny.) The well-known cartoonist, Mr.
John T. MeCutcheon. of The Chicago
Tribune, has In his "Congressman
Pumphrey, the People's Friend." drawn
a lot of very telling pictures, and along
with the pictures he has written some
entertaining prose. ' In this book Mr.
MeCutcheon seems to. have caricatured
a breed of politicians (Speaker Cannot),
of the United States house of repre
sentatives, to the contrary notwith
standing) who, pleading for vbtes to
send him to congress, arrives In Wash
ington tn due time to become either a
nonentity or a tool of "predatory
weulth.” All of u* have heard so often
from candidates Just what they were
going to do "to 'em” when they got to
Washington, so that Mr. McCutchcon’s
bright little-book seems to express Ih a
story Just what a great, many constitu
ents feel about their members of con
gress. who furnish, their districts noth
ing better than garden seed and padded
notes In the Washington Carrest)anci
ents' telegrams to the home papers.
"Congressman Pumphrey, the Peo
ple's Friend,” Is the story of Mr. Pum-
phrey, who promises everything to his
constituent*. He arrives In Washing
ton, Is taken In charge by Senator Oc
topus and a few other "nice" people,
alao a female lobbyist tries her hatul on
Pumphrey and the changes In Pum-
phroy’s viewpoint are quite remarkable.
Some newapaper friend visit* Pum
phrey, then returns to Pumphrey’*
home town, where both lived, and In an
editorial Pumphrey is (to say the least)
worsted. Through his "dear friend,"
tho Senator Octopus, Pumphrey muffles
the editor’s vole* and when the book
closes Pumphrey Is brought to the
point where he sees distinctly that he
will have to decide between tils constit
uents and Senator Octopus' designing
bill against the poor "common people,
non- In the hoSse of representatives,
and upon which! Pumphrey Is expected
to vote favorubl*. Congressman Pum
