BOOK NOTICES.
The Northern Cross. By Willis Boyd Allen.
Illustrated. Pine Cone Series. Boston; D.
Lothrop Company. Price $1 00.
In this breezy and thoroughly healthy
story of a boy’s life at school the author
proves his right to a foremost place among
the writers of juvenile literature in this
country. The story is local, the scene be
ing laid in and about the Boston Latin
School, from which institution the author
was a graduate. It is, in fact, largely a
record of his own experiences, and some of
his descriptions of characters and incidents
are as accurate as photographs. Exhibi
tion day, the prize drill on the common
and scenes in the school room are described
with infinite relish, and there isn’t a boy
anywhere with a bit of boy feeling about
him that will not enjoy the book from cover
to cover.
The True and the False Theory of Evolution.
By Rev. Chauncey Giles. William H. Alden.
Philadelphia, publisher, corner Twenty-second
and Chestnut streets.
In the subject of evolution there is very
general interest. It commands the attention
of the most acute and profound thinkers.
The effect which it is having upon the scien
tific and religious world is very marked.
The series of lectures of the Rev. Mr. Giles,
which are comprised in this volume, is not
only deeply interesting, but they also put
evolution before the reader’s mind in a man
ner so clear and forcible that it is impossible
not to understand it. The Century Com
pany, Union Square, New York.
Calamity Row: or The Sunken Records. By
John R. Jlusick. Rand, McNally A Cos., pub
lishers. 148 to 164 Monroe street, Chicago.
Price 25c., in paper.
Mr. Musick’s greatest strength lies in ver
satility. Numbers do not appear to confuse
him; and, although the principal actors in
this story include stock operators, dock rats,
a clergyman, students of medicine, adven
turers, women of fashion, a poor cobbler,
a pretty shop girl, an old sailor, street
Arabs and an apple woman, the author has
given to each of them a distinct individual
ity and an important role.
A History of the Art of slagic. By P. P.
Pimayenis. J. J. Little A Cos., 10 to 12 Astor
place, New York.
Mr. Pimayenis, who is a member of the
Order of the Royal Cross of Greece, and
who has a high and well-earned literary
reputation, has succeeded in this volume in
giving the public something that will
afford it a great deal of entertainment.
The work contains anecdotes, explanations
of tricks and a sketch of the life of Alexan
der Herrmann, who was regarded as the
master of the art of magic.
Who Cares: Episodes in theLifeof Mary Camp
bell. Facts, not Fancies. By Sirs. Harriet N.
K. Goff. With an introduction by Rev. Dr.
Theodore L. Cuyler. Paper cover 50c., cloth
75c. T. B. Peterson A Brothers, Philadelphia.
This work is an autobiography written in
the form of a novel, and while it contains
terrible truths, it has all the fascination of a
romance. Interest that cannot be shaken
off pervades every page, and Mary Camp
bell’s unvarnished narrative thrills while it
excites pity for erring women and contempt
for dissolute men.
The Old South and the New South, A series
of letters by Hon. William D. Kelley. G. P.
Putnam's Sons, New York.
Some of these letters have already ap
peared in the newspapers. The material
for them was gathered by Mr. Kelley dur
ing a visit to the South last spring and sum
mer. They are interesting and valuable.
Those who want to get an unbiased view of
those portions of the South which Mr.
Kelley visited will find these letters particu
larly valuable.
Ida Waugh's Alphabet Book. J. B. Lippincott
Company, Philadelphia, publishers. Price
8i 00.
Th book is for the little ones, and while
it will interest them greatly, it will assis t
them in learning their letters. It is superbly
gotten up. The illustrations are appro
priate, the paper is heavy and fine, and the
printing is of the highest class. The verses
are by Amy E. Blanchard. There could
hardly be a finer Christmas present for chil
dren.
The Wide, W t ide World. By Elizabeth Wether
ell, with etchings by Frederick Dielman. Com
plete in one volume. Cloth, $2 50. J. B.
Lippincott Company, Philadelphia.
This is a very handsome volume, the
binding and typography being all that
could be desired. The story is an interest
ing one, the plot Vicing good, the characters
sketched witn ability and the dialogue full
of life. It is a story that catches the atten
tion at the beginning aud holds it to the
end.
The Kentucky Resolutions ok I I’M: An histor- 1
ical study by Elizabeth Dudley Warfield, A.
M., LL. 8., G. P. Putnam's Sons, New York,
publishers.
< The feeling that has existed that the his
torical accounts of the Kentucky Resolu
tions of 171)8 wero inadequate is satisfied by
this work. While the interest in the reso
lutions is especially groat in Kentucky, it is
not small in other parts of the country
among scholars.
Millennial Dawn. Vol. 1. The Plan of the
Ages. Cloth binding, sl. Tower Publishing
Company, Allegheny, Pa.
Of this work the Evening Pont, of ,San
Francisco, is quoted as saying: “It is thor-
refreshing, in this ago of skepticism
and vaunted indifference to the truths of
religion, to find a writer coming nobly for
ward to maintain the principle of a
revealed religion.”
The New Crusade; or High License and Prohi
bition viewed in the Light of Federal Legisla
tion. Lilierty Publishing Company, Still
water, Minn.
This is an interesting little work by Hon.
Percy B. Smith, a member of the Minne
sota bar. It is a valuable addition to the
temperance literature of the tunes.
The Lanuinc. ok the Pilorim Fathers and On
The Wino are two nuinliers of the Teniel
Series issued by Cartel Brothers of London
THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1887.
and their Now York representatives E. and J.
B. Young A Cos.
The works are a series of illustrations
which for beauty cannot be readiiy ex
celled.
The last bound volume of the Century
for six months (May to October) is the
thirty-fourth. With the November, 1887,
number, the magazine entered upon its
eighteenth year, the seventh under the pres
ent name. Until the end of 1884, the circu
lation of the Century had rarely exceeded
130,U00. The first edition of the November
number of that year, in which the War
Papers were begun, was 141,500, and within
the few months following six more editions
were printed. The total permanent gain in
circulation made by the War Papers has
been about 75,000. and to this number 25,1#X)
may be added as the increase brought
about by the publication of the Lincoln His
tory. The average edition of the past year
has considerably exceeded 280,000, while of
one issue the edition reached 252,500 —a
figure beyond that of the most successful
war number The contents of the Century
volume include some notable papers.
Here are Prof. Atwater’s valuable economic
studies on the food question, several of Mrs.
van Rensselaer’s Cathedral papers, with
Pennell’s illustrations (to be continued in
1888); Dr. J. M. Buckley’s “Christian Science
and Mind Cure;” biographical contributions
from George Bancroft, Clarence Cook, Karl
Blind, George Kennan and others; travel
papers and art papers; essays on important
subjects by Theodore T. M unger, John Bach
McMaster and E. C. Stedman; single illus
trated articles on “Finding Pharoau,” “Col
lege Boat Racing,” by Julian Hawthorne,
etc. The fiction includes the latter half of
Mr. Stockton’s “Hundredth Man.” with nota
ble short stories, among them “Jack,” by
Miss Elizabeth Stuart Pheli>s, “Azalia,” by
Joel Chandler Harris, etc.
The St. Nicholas bound volumes for
188(3-87 contain nearly 2,000 pages of de
lightful matter. During the past year the
leading'features of St. Nicholas have in
cluded Frank R. Stockton’s “personally
conducted’ papers, suggestive articles en
titled, “Ready for Business;” Gen. Badeau’s
war stories for boys and girls; the serials,
“Jenny’s Boarding House,” by James Otis,
and “Juan and Juanita,” by Frances Cour
tenay Baylor; St. Nicholas dog stories;
“Historic Girls,” by E. S. Brooks; Mr. Wil
liam H. Rideing’s series on the boyhood of
great men; papers on cadet life at West
Point, etc. AVithin the past few years this
magazine has come to be very widely used
as a supplementary reader in schools. For
next year St. Nicholas has a greater pro
gramme than ever. Mrs. Burnett, author of
“Little Lord Fauntleroy,” is to contribute
a short serial; and Joel Chandler Harris,
John Burroughs, Frank R. Stockton. H. H.
Boy e-ell, J. T. Trowbridge, Col. Richard
M. Johnstone and Louisa M. Alcott are
among the many distinguished writers who
will contribute serial and short stories to
this famous magazine for young people.
MAGAZINES.
Harpers for December excels any of its
previous Christmas numbers and that is
saying a great deal. Every article and
story is complete in itself, and there is a
profusion of illustrated short stories. The
Christmas idea predominates throughout in
a mast attractive form. The leading article
is a charming one on “Old Garden Flow
ers,” by F. W. Burbidge, of the Dublin
Botanical Gardens. “Pauline Pavlovna” is
a powerful dramatic poem by T. B.
Aldrich, the scene of which is laid in a
Russian masquerade ball. Reinhart illus
trates the critical points of the plot by two
full page drawings. The most signal feature
of this number is a colored plate of Ameri
can gems, illustrating an important article
on “Precious Stones in the United States,”
by George F. Kunz. This plate is
one of the choicest products of litho
graphic art ever accomplished, presenting a
lac-simile in color and size of the most illus
trious gems found in this country—a group
of brilliant colors requiring twenty separate
printings. There is also a number of black
and white drawings. Will Carleton con
tributes a vigorous poem called “The Con
vict’s Christmas Eve,” which is illustrated
by Gilbert Gaul. The remarkable group of
illustrated short stories is unparalleled in
magazine literature, comprising “Inja,” a
Virginia story, bv Atnelie Rives, beauti
fully illustrated by Frederick Dielman;
“His Day in Court,” a Tennessee story, by
Charles Egbert Craddock, with five capital
drawings by A. B. Frost; “Captain Santa
Claus,” a frontier Christmas story, by Capt.
Charles King, illustrated by R. F. Zogbaum;
"Annie Laurie,” a thrilling story of the
Massachusetts stone quarries, by Elizabeth
Stuart Phelps, illustrated by C. S. Rein
hart; and “Craddock’s Heldest,”the story of
a London waif, by Frances Courtenay Bay
lor, illustrated by Frederick Barnard. Har
per & Brothers, New York.
The Christmas number of Scribner's Mag
azine is especially notable for its wealth of
imaginative literature, both in prose fiction
and narrative verse. There is a marked in
dividuality, vigor, sincerity and beauty
shown in the stories and poems, which have
been enriched with an unusual number of
illustrations, every one of which has been
made from an original drawing by a skilful
artist. These have been reprodu ed by ex
pert wood engravers. The result is that
what is best in literature aud art is represent
ed in this number, which fitting
ly concludes the first year of a
remarkably successsful magazine. The
number opens with a remarkable poem.
The exquisite genius of Robert Louis Ste
venson has transformed into a stirring ballad
the legend of the Cameron “who heard a
word in the night”—
“The name—Ticonderoga,
The utterance of the dead.”
Two handsomely illustrated poems in dif
ferent veins are "Tarpeia,” a legend of
ancient Rome, by Louise Imogene Guiney,
with a full page engraving after a drawing
by Howard Pyle; and “A Song to the Lute,”
by Austin Dobson. There are four complete
stories in the number (three elaborately
illustrated), by writers who have made dis
tinct places for themselves in widely differ
ent fields. Charles Scribner’s Sons, New
York.
The December Forum contains some
notable articles. “The ideal Democratic
party,” says James Parton, in discussing
“The Issue Next Year,” “is composed of the
many who suffer and the few who think,
and such a party it measurably was in its
great day when the good Jefferson was
chief. The Republican party,” he contin
ues, “has honestly and boldly taken in
charge the supposed interest of a class,
leaving to its antagonist the conquering
force of principle, which is the interest of
all.” A sectional question of a somewhat
novel kind, is raised by the Hon. John A.
Casson, of lowa, in an i ssay on “The Wes
tern View of the Tariff. " With partisan
ship and side issues eliminated, what
are the precise jwints involved in
the Fisheries Question ! Dr Freeman Hnow,
Instructor of Internaßlonal Laws at Har
vard College, has a concise review of the
controversy, stating the case of each side
and explaining the bearings, on every point
at issue, of the treaties ami of interna
tional law. The other articles arc fully as
interesting as the above. The Forum Pub
lishing Company, 1)7 Fifth avenue, New
York city.
Outing for December contains the thrill
ing experiences of Emma Frances Benedict
daring her winter’s sojourn in Gen. Hook
er’s camp. The illustrations and frontis
piece are by A. R. Waud, an artist who was
on the spot, and familiar with all the inci
dents sue describes, and J. E. Kelly. The
article is esiiecially novel and interesting.
Gen. Randolph B. Marcy contributes a
highly instructive and entertainiug article
on hunting the American moose, in the De
cember Outing. The General is a keen
sportsman, an accomplished writer, and has
had forty yearn’ border experiences after
every kind of game to be found on this con
tinent. J. Carter Beard supplies four mag
niilceut illustrations. Avery pretty picture
of Irish hospitality and the stirring scenes
with famous packs of that country’s fox
hounds, is described. The text is Ills l rally
illustrated by car ital pen and ink sketches.
The Volunteer-Thistle races of October are
chronicled tor preservation by all yachts
men. 140 Nassua street, New York.
The American Magazine of History for
December is an especially fine number. The
article on Aaron Burr will be read with
deep interest Another article that will at
tract a great deal of interest is “Stephen A.
Douglass and the Free Boilers.” The frontis

The Morning News has received a
pamphlet descriptive of Pulatka, Fla., and
Putnam county in which Palatku is located.
Putnam county is regarded as the “home
of the citrus family. ” It is certainly a land
for the fruit growers and gardeners. The
pamphlet is handsomely illustrated and con
tains a great deal of information.

MME. GERSTER’ i VOIC/.
It is Not in Good Form and She is
Obliged to Rest It.
From the New York Times, Nov. 28.
Mine. Gerster sang for the last time in
public for some weeks to come at New
Haven on Saturday evening. Mr. Henry
Abbey, her manager, said last night that
Mine. Gerster had decided to rest for a
month or six weeks before again appearing
in concert. This decision on the part of the
priina donna is due, Mr. Abbey says, to the
fact that whenever she has sung in public
during her present engagement she has lieen
overcome by an unaccountable nervousness
which has prevented her doing full justice
to herself. She says that her voice was
always in perfect form on rehearsal for a
concert, but that when she went before the
footlights it forsook her as if by magic. It
is because of this nervousness,which for the
time being has assumed au aggravated
character, that Mine. Gerster realizes that
she cannot do full justice to herself, and has
decided to rest until she shall have some
what recovered hfcr health.
Mr. Abbey says that he sent Mr. Coples
ton to Italy to make arrangements with
Mine. Gerster for the present tour in Ameri
ca. Mr. Copleston heard her sing and re
ported her voice as being as good as ever.
Mme. Gerster herself was also convinced
that her vocal powers had suffered no im
pairment. It was on the strength of these
statements that Mr. Abbey undertook the
concert tour. Since then Mr. Abbey says
he lias learned that Copleston heard Mme.
Gerster sing in a room instead of in a hall,
to which fact he attributes the false impres
sion of her voice derived by Mr. Copleston.
Asa consequence of Mme. Gerster’s de
cision to rest the concert company which
was organized to accompany her on her
tour wifi not for the present fill any of the
dates made out for it, although all engage
ments which have been arranged for con
certs at the Casino will be fully carried out.
Beyont the latter concerts, however, noth
ing will be done by the company to fill the
engagements originally entered into by
Abbey, Schoeffel and Grau.
