“REMINISCENCES OF FAMOUS
GEORGIANS.” By Lucian Lamar
Knight. (The Franklin-Turner Co.)
It Is Indeed a great pleasure to tell of
the delightful Impression made by
■areful reading of Mr. Lucian Lamar
Knight’s superior book. “Reminiscences
f Famous Georgians.” It Is all histo
ry, full of facts and dates, but the at
tractive form Into which Mr. Knight
has put his work makes It read like a
mianee. No Southerner can read his
book without a thrill of sectional pride.
To Georgians the Interesting accounts
f Alexander H. Stephens, Robert
Toombs, the Lamars, the Cobbs, Ben
jamin H, Hill, John B. Gordon,, the
Lumpkins, the Colquitts, Henry# W.
Grady, the Pierces, the Jacksons, Bill
Arp and Uncle Remus, "Just make you
rant to throw up your hat and holler,”
Mr. Jqmeg Whitcomb Riley would
►ay.
The book. Which. Is Volume I, Is 'di
vided Into two parts. Thfe first part
reals with the .families named above
«md others; the second part (an ap
pendix) covering selections from ora
tions. contributions 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 dls-
ussed. Under the chapter head of
Georgia's Modern Prometheus,” Mr.
Knight gives an account of Governor
.lames Jackson, who was chief execu
tive of Georgia In 1796. There Is noth
ing in romance superior to the record
that Mr. Knight gives of Governor
Jackson’s experiences. Governor Jack-
ton, who had been In the state legis
lature. was afterwards sent to the
United States senate and while there
*ith four years of his senatorial term
•till before him, he resigned to return
' > Georgia to enter the state legislature
• fight the notorious Yaxoo land fraud,
hlch he, with other strong men of his
time, successfully wiped from the
Bute’s laws. He was afterwards re-
ttimed to the United States senate In
nit Ion of his great worth. The
ycount is most interesting which Mr.

Yazoo fraud bills In the plaza of tho
apitol building at Louisville, by
ihc use of a sun glasn to aecurc tho fire
from heaven to wipe out the disgrace
"hlch had been placed upon the state.
In discussing the often quoted famous
■Ply of Senator L. Q. C. Lamar to
Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts, Mr.
Knight gives a dramatic account of
"hat led up to tho biting sarcastic
finale of Senator Lamar’s famous
*l>ecoh.
The discussion grew out of a meas
ure which was then pending In con
gress to extend the act granting pen
nons to the soldiers of the War of 1812,
9,1 »s to make the act apply to the vet-
•Jkna of the War with Mexico and In
'lew id the fact that. Mr. Davis had
•men an officer of some note In the last
named unpleasantness, a proviso was
' Kerr-,] to the bill excluding Mr. Jef-
■erson Davis from the benefits of this
proposed legislation.
The terrillc rejoinder from Mr. La
mar naturally closed tho discussion.
Mr. Knight's book Is filled With thrill,
mg descriptions of the times and peo-
Ne 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 compiled by
'he author during his enforced stay,

at Avalon, near Los Angeles, flat. It

»eI HE CONGO AND COASTS OF
AFRICA.” By Richard Harding Davis.
" harles Scribner’s Sons.) Sir. Davis
fevompanled by Mrs. Davis took a trip
att year to the west coast of Africa to
investigate the condition of the pao-
f'* "nd of things generally. The re-
fj' 1 °f his explorations la aet forth In
n |s book recently Issued called "The
«ngo and Coasts of Africa." Any-
ming that Mr. Davis writes la reada
ble and thin new book Is not an excep-
m>n to the rule. Mr. Davis gives a full
fveount of everything he saw or even
heard about. He states that while he
“la not see any atrocities In the Con-
be heard of them from reliable
lources.
-.And Mr. Davis finds King Leopold II
tauty on all counts.
.. ‘ oe book Is very interesting ss a
,' n ‘ rl butlon to travel literature: wheth-
r the reader agrees with Mr. Davis or
not in his findings, the time will bo well
spent In reading his book. While on
this subject It might well be said that
Mr. Henry A. Savage Landor, In Ills
book of travel, "Across Widest Africa."
utterly refutes the charge of atrocity
against Leopold and his Belgian com
panv. Mr. Landor says that the vll
lages In the Congo are "neat, .and
nourishing as all the villages were,"
which Mr. Davis contradicts, and the
numerous population on the Belgian
side of the Congo river, while there
were but fow natives who remained on
the French side of the river, entirely
discredits any charge of cruelty by tho
Belgians against the natives In the
Congo. So It Is, "take your choice.”
“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 Girl." The
contents of the book are quite Interest.
Ing and the publishers have produced
It handsomely, making of It a genuine
holiday creation. The story Is light
reading. In that It deals with a tovely
Southern girl of 18 years of age, an
orphan, who lived with her maiden
aunt, a sister of her dead father—Miss
India Wayne, The father of HpUj* tad
died quite poor, leaving all of his prop
erty Involved with mortgages, etc., so
that the home place. Wayne wood. In
Florida, was really owned by a New
Yorker. This New Yorker, broken In
health. Is sent by his physician to Flor
ida. Robert Wlnthrop recalls. Inciden
tally, that he owns a place In Florida,
so he goes there to recuperate. Hot y
Is very pretty and lovable. Miss India
"hates Yankees.” but Robert Wlnthrop.
ns the reader can guess, overcomes in
lime her dislike for the Northeroer, In
particular If not In general. So, too.
tho reader can see the further answer,
which Is that Robert Wlnthrop loved
Holly and Holly loved Wlnthrop. There
was another chap In the love game tho
—"Cousin Julian"—and he gave as
much trouble as he could to the lovers,
but In time—well, readers know what
happened In time between a Northern
man and a Southern girl—In novels.
Such Is the basis for many novels. It Is
not a bad one for our now united coun-
try Kvery little contribution to the
good feeling between th# sections helps,
and forty years Is a mighty long time.
In speaking of Belasco’s new play In
New York called "The Warrens of Vlr-
glnU," In Which Mias Charlotte Walk
er, a Galveston. Texas, girt la winning
deserved praise from the critlca, one
dramatic critic said that all Plays of
the Civil war (he might have added iJI
books) plotted on the uniting or the
••Rlue and the Gray, were based on
the love beVween™nstlnetlve enemies,
namely, the Southern girl and the Fed
eral officer, and the love affairs oc
curring Just after or during hoiltllltlee.
too. But the critic Justly jremariuu
love affairs?
"Holly—The Romance of a Southern
Girl," Is a mott agreeable light holiday
offering, one that The Georgian takes
pleasure In recommending to its read
ers.
“THE BROKEN ROAD,” by A. E. W.
Mason. (Charles Scribner’s Sons.)
There 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. Readers of
The Georgian are familiar with Mr.
Mason’s previous books, "Four Feath
ers" qpd "Running Water." "The
Broken Road" Is ns good. If not batter,
than anything that Mr. Mason has yet
written.
The story 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
his father and grandfather. The other.
"Bhere All." the heir apparent of the
Khan of Chlltlstan, a subsidiary sov
ereign In Indio. The theme of the story
Is the criminal habit of English vice
roys In India of educating In the past
its 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.
dally 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 the ruling race and they discov
er that no matter what bravery a na
tive may exhibit In battle for India or
England, he can never receive the
Victoria Cross. Shere All. prince, was
sent to Eton and Oxford, at which place
his Intimate friend wan Richard Lln
worth. In addition to Its great power
ss a dramatic novel, the teaching Is
undeniably there that blood and water
will not mix. Shere 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 accuatomad to In London.
Then the pendulum awlnga back thru
a rail of the wild and Bhere All, tom
as a young-chap from his own people,
returns to India a hater of everything
English. This social Inferiority la
brought home clearly to Sbero All when
Vlolot Oliver, whom both Richard Lln-
vioioi uiow, —
worth and Shere All love, refuses to
marry the latter, on account of his
color. Shere All then undertakes a fu
tile rebellion, la cruahed and England's
unjust practice of educating the In
dian princes away from thalr own peo
ple is dramatically shown. Violet Oli
ver, a moat attractive woman to read
about, trifles with both Llnworth and
Shere All. She receives her Just dues
In this book, and If we had nothing
•lee to thank Mr. Mason for, we are
author In that he allows his characters
to do those very thlnge and to find their
levels as do people In real life. In a
typical "best seller" Richard Llnworth
would have married Violet Oliver;
never In real life, nor under the control
of euch a gifted novelist as Mr. Mason
Is. Mr, Mason no doubt has facts to
sustain his novellzatlon of Indian
themes and problems. Of the social
position which Is gladly given the ne
gro princes In London, ono Atlanta
young man can speak feelingly. Some
years ago in the Empire Music Hall In
London two Atlanta young fellows wit
nessed the "show." Soon after gaining
their seats they noticed Immediately In
front of them a beautiful woman, be
decked with Jewels and finery, sitting
next to one of the blackest negroes
ghat even these Atlanta chaps had. ever
seen. These young fellows hhd not been
accustomed to sitting behind a full-
blooded negro In the orchestra chairs of
a play house, but possibly their re
marks upon the subject were at least
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 these two chaps knew
they were being kindly but firmly pre
sented with the money paid for their
seats and ejected from the Empire Mu.
sic Hall. The explanation was that the
negro under discussion was an Indian
prince, n guest of the Imperial govern
ment, who was attending the play with
Ills white sweetheart.

CUPID, THE COW-PUNCH,” by
Eleanor Gates. (The McClure Com
pany'.) It •seems almost too 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 so from
a man's viewpoint, that one would
not have been surprised to have at
least noted a male collaborator. Not
so, however, and this note above Is affh-
ply to call underscored attention to the
excellent work.
The story "happens” In our newest
state. “Oklahomy.” Alec Lloyd, cow
boy. Is pretty obstreperous In his Inter
ference with other people's love af
fairs. Which aforesaid Interference
earns him the name of “Cupid.” He In
sists upon having a hand or two In
other people's never-dtd-run-smooth-
ness until he Interferes once too often.
Then he Is informed by old man Be
wail that when Cupid’s time cornea-
well he had better look out—that’s all.
Cupid mlsrht be n. groat manlmilator of
other people’s love matters, but of hls
own—well. Just wait—that was all that
was intimated. And sure enough, Cu-
R d’s time did come, and It fell on him
ce the proverbial thousand-of-brlck.
For It was Made Bewail, daughter of
old man Bewail, the prototype of Miss
Cassandra. Well. Cupid had a pretty
hard time of It. He was elected by bal
lot the homeliest man In “Briggs City,”
and, worse than that—this election
happened at the very time that Made
Bewail was selected as the “prettiest
girl.” But this seemed to help Cupid a
little. He had a time of It, tho. and
this most Interesting human book Is
a pleasing account of Cupid’s hard rid
ing of the trail of love. He would com
fort himself tho when be felt as if ho
