LITERARY LIGHTS AND SHADOWS
By S. MAYS BALL (Arthur Pendennls, Jr.)
"REMINISCENCES OF FAMOUS
GEORGIANS.” By Lucian Lamar
Knight, (The Franklin-Turner Co.)
It I* Indeed n great pleasure to tell of
the delightful Impression made by a
careful rending of Mr. Lucian Lamar
Knight's superior book. "Reminiscences
of Famous Georgians." It Is all histo
ry, full of facts and dates, hut the at-,
tractive form Into which Mr. Knight
has put his work makes it read like a I
romance. No Southerner can read his
book without a thrill of sectional pride.
To Georgians the Interesting necounts j
of Alexander H. Stephens, Robert
Toombs, the Lamars, the Cobbs, Ben
jamin H. Hill, John B. Gordon., the
Lumpkins, the Colquitt*. Henry W,
Grady, the Pierces, the Jacksons, Bill
Arp and Uncle Remus, "Just mako you
want to throw up your hat and holler."
as Mr. James Whitcomb Riley would
say. '
■The book, which Is Volume I, Is di
vided Into two parts. The first part
deals with the families named above
and others; the second part (ftn ap-
IH-ndlx) covering selections Irom ora
tions, contribution* to the press, etc.,
by famous Georgians,
The whole book holds the Interest
right from the beginning to the end.
The Introduction Is by Mr, Joel Chan
dler Harris. President Roosevelt's
Georgia ancestors are thoroughly dis
cussed, Undor the chapter head of
“Georgia's Modern Prometheus.'' Mr.
Knight give* an account of Governor
Jntnea Jackson, who was chief execu
tive of Georgia In 1“>6. There Is noth- I
lng in romance superior to the record
that Mr. Knight gives of Governor
Jockson’s experiences. Governor Jack-
son, who hnd been In the stato login
lature. was afterwards sent to the
United States senate and while there
with four year* of his senatorial term
atlll before him, he resigned to return
to Georgia to enter the state legislature
to fight the notorious Yazoo land fruud,
which he, with other strong men of hi*
lime, successfully wiped from the
state's laws. He was afterwards re
turned to the Unltod States senate In
recognition of his great worth. The
account la most Interesting which Mr.
Knight gives of the burning of the
Yazoo fraud bills In the plaza of the
old capitol building nt Louisville, by
the uso of a sun glass to secure the fire
from henvon to wipe out the disgrace
which had been placed upon the state.

Knight gives a dramatic account of
what led up to the biting sarcastic
finale of Senator Lamar's famous
speech.
The discussion grew out of a meas
ure which was then pending In con
gress to extend tho act granting pen
sions to the soldlera of the Wnr of 1SI2,
s.> as to moke the act apply to the vet-
cinns of the War with Mexico and In
view of the fact that Mr. Davis hod
been an officer of some note In the last
namod unpleoiantneas, a proviso was
offered to the bill excluding Mr. J«>-
feraon Davis from the benefits of this
proposed legislation.
The terrific rejoinder from Mr. La
mar naturally closed the discussion.
Mr. Knight's book Is fllled with thrill,
lng descriptions of the times and peo.
pie of Georgia. It Is a gem of Its kind
and unlike the usual historical publi
cations. It reads like a novel. -This first
volume was written and complied by
the author during hi* enforced stay,

at Avalon, near Los Angeles, Cal. It
Is a great pleasure, and In truth a duty
of The Georgian to cal! the attention

hook. It Is published In Atlanta thru

HOLLY—THE~ROMANCE OF A
SOUTHERN GIRL,” by Ralph Henry
Barbour. (J. B. Llpplncott Company.)
An unusually attractive holiday book
Is Mr. Barbour’s latest story,'"Holly—
The Romance of a Southern Clrl." The
contents of the book are quite Interest
ing nnd tho publishers have produced
It handsomely, making of It a genuine
holiday creation. The ttory It light
reading, In that It deals with a lovely
“outhern girl of IS years of age, an
orphan, who lived with her maiden
aunt, a slater of her dead father—Mils
India Wayne. The father of Holly had
died quite poor. leaving all of his prop
erty Involved with mortgages, etc., so
that the home place, Waynewood, la
Florida, was really owned by a New
Yorker. This New Yorker, broken In
health. Is sent by hla physician to Flor-
Ida. Hobert Wlnthrop recall*, tnclden

so he goes there to recuperate. Hoi y
Is very pretty and lovable. Mis* India

time her dislike for the Northerner, In
particular If not In general. So. too,
the reader can see the further answer,
which I* that Robert Wlnthrop loved
Holly and Holly loved Wlnthrop. There
was another chap In the love game tho
—"Cousin Julian”—and he gave as

“THE BROKEN ROAD," by A. E. W.
Mason. (Charles Scribner's Sons.)
Ther# have not been written recently
many novels Which will excel In any
way this last story. "The Broken Road,"
by Mr. A. E. W. Mason. Renders of
The Georgian are familiar with Mr.
Mason's previous books, "Four Feath
ers" and “Running Water." "The
Broken Rood" Is aa good. If not better,
than anything that Mr. Maeon has yet
written. .
The atory deals with the friendship
first of two young men; one, an Eng
lishman, Richard Llnworth. who had
Inherited the love for India and its up
building, principally the construction of
a road. thro India, left unfinished by
hla father and grandfather. The other,
"Bhere All,” the heir apparent of the
Khan, of Chlltlstsn, a subsidiary sov
ereign In India. The theme of tho story
Is the criminal habit, of English vice
roys In India of educating In the past
It* native princes In England, and that
these princes sent to England, coddled
by society In London, given all of the
social equality In England, they return
to India to discover that they arc
of an entirely different race from Eng
lish men and women. The attentions so
cially having been welcomed In Eng
land, upon their return to India It was
naturally startling to be told to marry
one of their own people. They are ex
cluded from all real social Intercourse
with th* ruling race and tQey dlscov
er that no matter what bravery a na
five may exhibit In battle for India or
England, he can never receive the
Victoria Cross. Bhere All, prince, was
sent to Eton and Oxford, at which place
his InJImate friend was Richard Lln
worth. In addition to Its great power
as a dramatic novel, the teaching Is
undeniably there that blood and water
will not mix. Bhere All returns to In
dia at the call of the viceroy to accept
a lower social position even as an In
dian prince than that to which the
English men, and women especially, had
made him acoustomed to In London.
Then the pendulum swings back thru
a call of the wild and Bhere AIL torn
aa a young chap from hla own people,
return* to India a hater of evarythtng
English. This social Inferiority I*
brought home clearly to Bhere All when
Violet Oliver, whom both Richard Lln
worth and Shere All love, refuaea to
marry the latter, on account of hie
color. Bhere All then undertaken a fu
tile rebellion, le crushed nnd England's
unjust practice of educating the In
dian princes away from their own peo.

their seats they noticed immediately In
front of them a beautiful woman, be
decked with Jewel* and finery, silting
next to one Of the blackest negroes
that even these Atlnnta chaps had over
seen. These youhg fellows had not been
accustomed to sitting behind a full-
blooded negro In the orchestra chair* of
a play house, but possibly their re
marks upon the subject were at lesst
III timed and Injudicious. At any rate,
opinions were not quietly expressed on
the subject of a beautiful white woman
sitting next to a negro In a theater, and
the first thing theso two chaps khew

“THE BOYS OF~THE OLD GLEE

other delightful offering, beautifully
gotten up for Christmas time. In the

He touches us all. This new poem,

Is an account In pleaslnk rhyme of the
old glee club and Its members who have

shore. Mr. Riley discusses delightfully
and pertinently the members of the old

Mr. Riley sings of how the old mem.

“GUPID, THE COW-PUNCH,” by
Eleanor Gates. (The McClure Com
pany.) It seem* almost loo good to be
true, after reading "Cupid. The Cow-
Punch," to turn back and see on the ti
tle page that it was written by a wom
an. Not that women can not write
about many things, and of those many
things write delightfully, but the theme
running thru this story by Eleanor
Gates Is so masculine, written ao from
a man's viewpoint, that one would
not havo been surprised to have at
least noted a male collaborator. Not
ao, however, and thia note above ta stm
ply to call ■ underscored attention to the
excellent work.
The story "happens" In our newest
State. "Oklahomy." Alec Lloyd, cow
boy. la pretty obstreperous In his Inter
ference with other people’s love, af

earns him the name of "Cupid." He In

ness until he Interferes once too often.

wail that when Cupid's time comes—
well he had better look out—that's all.
Cupid mleht bo a great manipulator of
other people's love matters, but of his
own—well, lust wait—that was all that
was Intimated. And sure enough. Cu
pid's time did comp, and It fell on him
like the proverbial thousand-of-brick.
For It was Mncle Bewail, daughter of
old men Sewell, the prototype of Miss
Cassandra. Well. Cupid had a pretty
hard time of It. He wee elected by bal
lot the homeliest man In "Hrtgge City,"
and, worse than . that—thle election
happened at the very time that Marie
Bewail was selected as the "prettiest
