If the children of the present day do not
become learned In science and history by
\tho time they have reached manhood and
j womanhood It will not bo the fault of the
'makers of books. There Is such a bowll-
f' dorlng assortment ot children's histories
sand scientific works at the present tlmo
( { that It is hard work to make a selection ,
Ibut the number Is constantly being Increased -
| creased and still the end Is not In sight.
iThe oldtlmo nursery talcs , fairy stories and
| tmgbcar stories are almost crowded out by
newer works o ( learning. The grading
fpf thcso books so as to s'ult children of all
nnd attainments has no doubt added
[ greatly to their popularity and will tend to
them In public favor. There are scv-
Feral books of this class of recent publlca-
lilon at hand and they are as Interesting
Quid attractive as their predecessors. "Sto-
i of Ohio , " by William Dean Howels , la
Interesting und vivid Vccltat of the
fovents In the history ot n state that occu-
Jplcs nn Important position in the union ,
lit Is both Interesting and Instructive and
( thus well serves tbo purpose for which It
written. It has often been observed
[ that history told In an entertaining man-
pier Is as easily retained by the memory
[ as the plot of a popular novel.
Another work on the same order and In
binding Is entitled , "Stories of In-
and Is from the pen of Maurice
Thompson. The stories appear to furnish
a very complete history ot the state named
from the earliest explorations down to the
present time. The author has chosen onlj
Uio most characteristic episodes those
thoroughly reprcsentatlvo of the times sc
that the reader In passing ( rom story tc
story feels the changes ot life , sees UK
progress of civilization and realizes the
spirit of the adventures , hardships , patriotic
trugglcs and splendid triumphs of Imlinna'f
eoplc through all the phases of thch
progress No other book dealing with the
history of Indiana gives anything like these
stories. They are told In a way to Interest
? j > rcaclois ot all nges. They are good lltcra-
J | Jure as well as good history and whll-
sj /nnny of them read like romance , they art
true to reality.
"Outdoor Studies" Is a little book apt -
t parcntly Intended to supply a connected se
ries of lessons In nature study suitable foi
pupils who have had Homo experience am
previous training In observation. The author -
thor has written of things ho would havi
the tiunlls see and do and think about
Ho has ulven suggestions ( or Hold studj
BO simple and explicit that pupils may ( or
low them Individually nnd at home.
"Applied Physiology" for the primary nnc
Intermediate grades Is along the sami
lines ns the above. The author , Franl
Ovcrton , has published an advanced worl
and these books , taken In connection wltl
It , form a complete graded series. All th
books follow a natural order of treatmcn
nnd In each ( acts and principles are appllei
to everyday life. The primary books , In Ian
guago and Illustration , Is well within tin
comprehension of children. The Interme
dlato book Is designed to be a complet
elementary text book In Itself and an In
troiluctlon to the advanced study ot anat
omy and physiology. The effects of nl
cohol and other n icotlcs are treated wltl
special fulness In each book of tbo series.

the Greeks" and "Story of the Romans , '
has now written "The Story o ( the En

issued In the same form as his other work
and lll.c the foregoing are Intended ( or tb
Instruction of youthful readers. The prln
clpal object has been to make pupils s
familiar with the prominent characters o
Hngllsh history that they shall hencefort' !
seem like oM acquaintances , and In add !

so attractive to youthful minds as to arous

Dr. Hedwell relates an interesting ai
count of what ho considers a remarkab
cure of ncute stomach trouble and chron
dyspepsia by the use of the new discover
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Ho says. The patient was a man v.1
hod suffered to my knowledge ( or years wl
dyspepsia. Everything ho nto seemed
sour and create acid and gasex In the Eton
ach ; he had pains like rheumatism In tl
back , shoulder blades and limbs , fullne
nnd distress after eating , poor appetite ni
loss of llesh , the heart became affectc
causing palpitation and sleeplessness
night.
I gave him powerful nerve tonics and bio
retne.lUs. but to no purpose. As an expc
Iment I finally bought ix fifty cent package
Stuart's Dydpepala Tablets at a drug sto
and gave them to him. Almost Immediate
relief was given and after he had used ( o
boxes ho was to all appearances fully cure
There was no more ascldlty or so
watery risings , no bloating after meals , t
appetite was vigorous and he has gain
between 10 nnd 12 pounds In weight of sol
healthy flesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets c
ndvertlfied and sold In drug stores yet I co
elder them a most valuable addition to a
physician's line of remedies , as they a
perfectly harmless and can be given
children or Invalids or In any condition
tbo stomach with perfect safety , bo I
harmless and containing nothing but vef
table and fruit essences , pure pepsin a

Without any question they are ( ho safe

The Harpers have Issued a new volume of
Will Carlton's "Farm Ballads" that will bo
appreciated by the admirers ot the poet of
the farm and humble fireside. All the old-
time favorites are there , the same that won
fame for their writer years n o.
Among the novels at ) hand there are two
that bear a strong resemblance In that both
have their plots founded on Incidents of
everyday business life. "Fortuna , " a story
of Wall street , by J , B. Crews , a well known
banker of the great metropolis , would at
tract ! attention from the prominence of the
author If for no other reason. Mr. Clews
la a writer of considerable note on topics
relating to business and financial matters ,
but In his latest work ho has Introduced
the additional feature of love. "Fortuna"
may be briefly described as a story em
bracing finance , politics and love. His char
acters ore first Introduced to the reader's
notice on board ono of the ocean liners re
turning from Liverpool. The prominent
characters are a beautiful American girl o (
fabulous fortune , and an EngTlsh nobleman.
The story ends bcflttlngly ; the heroine hav
ing refused to become an English countess
for the sake of marrying a good American.

The other novel referred to ns having to
do with matters of business and finance la
"Four Months After Date , " by Randal Irv
ing Tylor. The author calls It a "jumble
of sentiment , slang and sense , " but whether
this 1s a true description or not It deals
practically with situations that every busi
ness man can appreciate and every business
man's wife ; while the Incidental romance
should widen the fist of Mr. Tyler's friends
to all lovers of Intelligent fiction. The

"Guideto True Religion , " by Rev. P ,
Woods , * is a volume of 300 pages , following
distinct pro-Catholic lines of argument and
bearing the authoritative Indoisumcnt ol
Cardinal Gibbons. The style Is Elmple and
persuasive and well adapted to popufur com
prehension. It briefly recites In their order
the stories of the Old and New Testaments
and follows the various movements of Chris
tianity from the time of the apostles dowr
to the present age. It traces the spread ol
the gospel through the succeeding centuries
and treats from the standpoint ) ot the au
thor's religious faith of the great schlstr
ot ArlanUm , which dented the divinity ol
Christ and which was condemned by the
council of Nice and subsequently by tin
council of Sardlca , and also of the later de
fection of the Greek church and the still
later Protestant secession from the Romar
church under the original readership ol
Luther. John Murphy & Co. , Baltimore.

Ili-Knr.lliitf "Trilby. "
OMAHA , Sept. 13. To the Editor of Th
Bee : An article appeared In The Bee of yea
terdny signed Ethel Evans and severcl
sco ng the painting "Trilby , " by Coopei
now being exhibited at the exposition. S
caustic were the comments and so unusun
that I think they call ( or a reply. Sh
begins at the ( eel and continues to th
head and attcr she has finished pee
"Trilby" has apparently not a ( oot to stan
upon. She says the figure Is not corrcctl
drawn , the left hip too high , the neck to
thick and course , nnd that a surgeon \\oul
say that she ought to be sent to the boa
pltal as one of the limbs Is longer than th
other. And all this after "Trilby" has bee :
exhibited for three years In all ot the prln
clpal cities of the country , Boston , Ne\
York , Cincinnati , Milwaukee , Chicago and
great many other art centers , nnd has bee
pronounced by some of the best critics an
artists to be a grand picture ! In the firs
(
place , It Ethel Evans will secure a mode
nnd pose her In the same position that th
model ( or "Trilby" was posed In she wll
find that she Is entirely mistaken , and K sh
will come again and carefully study th
picture I am sure that she will apologlz
to "Trilby. " The feet being foreshortene
would make them appear small for the flgur
unless this fact were taken Into consldcra
tlon , then the arms being uplifted woul
have the effect of making the neck lee
much shorter and thicker than K the arm
were down. Then again , the figure Is muc
larger than life , being six feet ami ono Inc
high , and when standing close and selectln
any ono part ( or criticism such things a
the eyes and mouth , or other parts o ( th
figure might seem too large unless this fa <
was taken Into consideration. The ptctur
should bo viewed at a. distance of at leai
thirty feet away to get the proper propoi
tlon. She asks , "Who Is Cooper ? " AD
because she does not happen to know hli
personally she says much as the prli
fighter who Is challenged , "Go and get a repi
tatlon before I will recognize you. " I mlgl
ask , "Where , did this art critic get her wor
derful knowledge of art ? " Has she palnte
any picture that has attracted universal a
tentlon ? Cooper Is well known In art clrcli
from San Francisco to Boston. Ills pain
Ings are to be ( ound In the Crocker galler
Sacramento , also In the galleries ot &
Louis , Chicago and other cities , and h
works can be ( ound in private collectloi
throughout the country , but if he had nev
painted anything but "Trilby" that shou
bo sufficient to give him a reputation.
Mr. Relnhart ot Milwaukee , probably 01
of the best critics in America , pronounc
"Trilby" a great thing. Prof. Sill ! of tl
Cincinnati Medical college , who delivers tl
anatomical lectures ( or the college , broug
bis entire class to view "Trilby" when
was in Cincinnati , EO did the professor
anatomy of the Tulane Medical college
New Orleans , and each of these gentlem
gave me permission to say for them th
"Trilby" was the grandest picture from i
anatomical standpoint that they had ov
seen. Scores of others could bo quot
K space would permit. Mr. William H. Hu
Is quoted in the article as saying "Th
In America everything resolves itself lc
getting money and selling a poor plctu
Instead of a good one. " What an unji
statement ! Look at tbo grand works
art by Munkacsy , Bougereau , Makart , D
prey and scores of other modern palnti
whoso works have been sold at fabulc
prices , to say nothing ot the old masti
purchased in this country. In New Yc
recently a olcture Ijy Fortuny sold :
$12,000 , so Mr. Hunt was wrong , Ami
leans appreciate art and will pay for
They also appreciate good exhibition p
lures and will visit them. "Trilby" 1
been visited by more than 2,000,000 peoj
who enjoy art and will continue to dr
the multitudes despite such criticism
this article refers to. Ninety-nine <
of cverr 100 visitor * * ay that It IB grand.
The eastern press and artist * have been
lavish In their prtlic of It , yet Kthel Evans
saya "They have eyes and sec not. " She
forgets the fact that some people "Look
through a glass darkly" when attempting
criticism , She nlso forgets that thora are
several kinds of art , just as there are sev
eral kinds ot horses , and that all pictures
should not bo criticised alike any more than
a race horse should be criticised for not
being able to draw a heavy load. Again
I will Invite Miss Evans to come and take
an unprejudiced view of "Trilby" and I
also feel like saying to her , "Come , let us
reason together. " Respectfully ,
L. LINCOLN , Owner of "Trilby. "
DIFFICULT TO LOAN MONEY
South Dakota Cnimot Find n 1'lncc to
I'tit It * Permanent School
I'lUlll.
PIERRE , S. D. , Sept. 13. ( Special. ) Th
state laud department Is finding trouble to
get the permanent school fund out Into nn
nterest fund. Under the statutes govern-
ng the distribution of this fund It Is divided
mong the various counties of the stcte ,
hlch counties are expected to keep their
pportlonment loaned. It Is made optional
bother the counties accept It or not , but
hen they do they are charged up with
10 Interest on the amount taken at 6 per
ent. But few of the counties will receive
10 fund on the ground that there ta no de-
iand for the money , and they do not dcslro
o hold it and pay Interest on It. The
ountles are allowed to loan it on safe
morgages on real estate , or Invest It In
chool bonds. Tbero la no demand for loans
n either such securities. Besides these
cans , when the state makes a sale , only
artlal payments arc accepted and It was
upposcd the purchasers would carry the rest
t the low rate of 6 per cent , as It Is re-
ulred of them that they pay a year's In-
crcst In advance to make final payment , and
t was supposed that most ot the purchasers
ould carry their deferred payments at this
ate and continue to keep the school fund
eplcnlshed , as the Interest goes ( Mrectly to
ho schools. But Instead ot carrying their
eferred payments , numbers of them are
aytug the extra Interest and making full
ottlement for the lands. This Is causing
tie permanent fund to accumulate In the
reasury , and will cause a shortage in the
und for the benefit of the schools It be
ing to look as If the legislature would bo
ompollcd to make other provisions for
ettlng the school fund Into Interest-bearing
ccurltlcs to secure the benefit from It which
s expected.
MONTANA'S SCHOOL OF MINES
InllilliiK * Arc JVovr Practically Com
pleted After Three Years'
AVorli.
BUTTE , Mont. , Sept. 13. ( Special. )
The Montana State School of Mines ,
which has been In course of con
traction for the last three years ,
s now practically completed. In fact
ho building as It now stands Is completed
with the exception of Installing the heating
lant , and this could bo done and the mag-
nltlcent structure turned over by the con-
ractors complete within a week , If the work
was pushed. The only reason this Is not
icing done Is the fact that the commissioners
tave no funds to equip and open the school ,
nd If turned over to them they would
bo put to the expense of employing watch
men and would have to pay all the In-
urance. This Is why they have riot In-
Istcd upon the contractors pushing the
work and completing the building.
The last legislature appropriated the sum
of $7,500 for the equipment and support of
he school. This amount will go but a
small way toward the equipment , allowing
nothing for running the , school.
"Tho board Is now going to expend that
money , " said Secretary Gillie , "as far as It
sill go , In preparing to ope'n the school ,
and wo will then have to await the action of
he legislature. In a number of states they
lave a direct tax for the support of the
state school of mines , but we have to have
a special appropriation. "
All the revenue from rentals Is used to
ward paying the Interest on the outatand-
ng warrants , which aggregate $95,000. Of
the total grant of 100,000 acres , the board
has selected , to date , 75,777.03 acres. The
otal Income for the fiscal year was $1,827.43.
and there will be due In rentals this year
; 280 , making a total income of $2,107.43.

WESTERN RANGES DEVASTATED
Pioneer Cattle Man Alnken Some In-
tcrentliie Observation * nt
Uendvrood.
DEADWOOD , Sept. 13. ( Special. ) H nry
Keets ot Spearfish , the cattle man , passed
through here recently on his way to Omaha ,
to visit the exposition ( or ten days. Mr.
Keets has lust como In from his Wyoming
cattle range , uhcre ho had been nearly
all summer. Ho says the range near his
old ranch on Inyan Kara creek Is very short
this year , and there is no natcr at all ( or
stock. This compcircd him to move bis
cattle ( rom than range over Into Johnson
county , near Buffalo , over 100 miles west.
The ( ecd la splendid out that nay. In ( act It
begins In western Crook county , although
the water Is short until Clear creek and IDs
tributaries are reached. Keets says the
ranges on the upper Delle Fourcho and the
Little Missouri , thirty miles apart , present
strange contrasts. On the former there Is
neither ( eed nor water , while on the latter
there never was bettor grass , while there la
enough water to keep , stock In good condi
tion. This Is the Drlsklir Brothers' range ,
and they have everything they could ask.
When snow ( alls their cattle will be abun
dantly provided ( or In the matter of ( eed
and water.
The cattlemen of Wyoming are still suffer
ing ( rom the ravages of wolves , and
there Is apparently no relief , as the pests
are increasing every year , and are becom
ing moro destructive. The strange thing
j about the wolves is the ( act that they have
I only existed In the ranges in sufficient num
bers to make trouble In recent years. Ten
or twelve years ago they were hardty ever
seen , and twenuy years ago , when the first
cattle were turned looie on these ranges ,
loss by them was unheard o ( . Lately they
I have begun to appear In such hordes that
f many ot the cattlemen have been affected

to the extent ) that they have gone out ot
the business , n recourse that others are now
considering. Where these wolves have been
all this tlmo Is a problem. The matter ot
tholr disposition is another and vexatious
ono. Keots says he believes the wolves left )
the country years ago In the wake ot the
great buffalo herds , and then , as the buffalo
became extinguished , the wolves began to
come back. Whether they can ever be ex
terminated in the wide open range , where
there Is noti a man located even on every
township Is extremely doubtful1.
