1 When Mary Hart well Cnthcrwood was 12
year old she read In n magazine an article
Intended to prove that the fcon of Loals
XVI of France did not dlo In prison, but
was taken to America, where he was given
Into tbc keeping of a half-breed Indian
nnd brought up under the name of Elcazai
Williams, or Mzarre, an the Indians ralle.i
him. 6veral years after Mrs. Cathorwooti
spent 11 rummer In northern New York,
where sho found traces of the lout dau'.Mn,
and subsequently In (Jreen Ilay, . h
met people who had known 121 J'
llama and had In their possesoinn
of tho art treasutcs thai had ucen sent'nlru
from France, This settled the determina
tion In her mind to write tho romance .of
tho little French prince. whl'h she has
ilono with Infinite rare and painstaking.
Bhe calls her romaneo "Laznrrc." after
the Indian name of the hero. It Is a most
charming story, thero bolng Just enough
10 real historical truth In It to add to the
interest, while tho plot Is one well cal
culated to hold tho Interest of the reader
to the Inst, It would not be at all sur

8lr Walter Ilcsant's "The l.ady of I.ynn."
i a story of life In the middle of tliu
eighteenth century, being laid In an Eng
lish coast town. "Tho Iady of I.vnn" Is
tho name of a ship In the I'ortUKUeso trade,
but the story Is not a tale of the sea. Tho
vessel Is owned by a wealthy young heiress,
who Is tho "lady" of this story, and tho
narrator Is tho young mato of tho shin,
who has been n playmate and' Is n lover
of tho girl. Tho heiress Is a simple coun
try girl, beautiful of course, who has never
hecn beyond the boundaries of tho countv.
All of the characters except the conspira
tors from London nro simple folk. Thov
fall ready victims to tho fashlonablo per
sonages who come to their town and daz
zle It with their city manners nnd shock-It
with tholr city vices. Tho visit of the Lon
don gentry nnd nobility Is part of n plot
formed by a prolllgata nobleman to rapture
the heiress' fortune. Ho succeeds In so-
curing most of the latter, but falls In get
ting tho girl, Tho story Is an entertnln
lng lomanco, full of conspiracy, with pic
tures of the life of the dlssnluto aristoc
racy conlrusted with tbat of tho lngcnuou.1
country people. The simple-mindedness of
tho girl's guardian and his legal ndvls
rrs In giving up the herless' fortune upon
the flimsy claim set tip by the man who
claimed to have married her. Is scarcely
credible. It Is not conrelvnblo that oven

immense fortune with so llttlo question or
contest. Dodd, Mead & Co.. New York

"Oreat Religions of the World" contains
a series of articles on Mohammedanism,
Confucianism, Buddhism, Brahmlnlsm,
Judaism, Christianity and other systems
which represent tho sacred beliefs and
hopes of considerable portions of tho human
race. Tho articles are by learned authori
ties, among whom may be mentioned T. W.

Royal Asiatic society, who Is nlso professor
of rail and Buddhist literature In Univer
sity college London; Mr. Frederic Harri
son, Rev, Washington Gladden nnd Sir A.
C. Lyall, formerly lleutennnt governor of
the Northwest Provinces of India. All
the men contributing to tho, volumo have

Tho third .volumo of that great work,
"Tho World's Best Essays," Is at hand,
and, llko Its predecessors, will bo found to
be a mine of literary Wealth. It contains

first essays In the volumo are these of
Thomas Carlyle, possibly the most powor

of equal Interest and celebrity nro repre

that tho third volumo fully sustains the
high reputation of its predecessors, nnd
gives equal promlso for those to follow.

of the volume Is solely that of preserving
In permanent nnd attractive form about

tho author has Included some which an
other might have omitted, while on the

used good Judgment In his selections and
has compiled a book that will be appre

Effort it Beiajr Had to Iring About
Grading f J Btrest.
PLAN FOR A REDUCTION OF EXPENSE
Afternoon and Etenlnsr Sessions Well
Attended Itrsolutlon at Respect
for the .nlloir Demi t
Contention at Lincoln.
A determined effort Is being made to have
street from Twenty-fourth street to
Twenty-fifth street graded this fall. Within
the last six years property owners In this
vicinity nnd members of the First Trcsby
terlan church havo endeavored to get this
work done, but as one or two property
owners held back no results were ob
tained. Under the new charter the city
may, if it has fcorao encouragement, pro
seed with this work and assess the cost to
the abutting property. Councilman Ed
Johnson Is assisting In tb work which Is
being pushed. Mr. Johnston has talked with
a number of property owners and has at
last secured the consent of one of tho
principal opponents of the plan.
At ine samu time that tne petition to
grade J street is presented anothor for
the grading of 1 street from Twenty-fifth
to Twenty-sixth streets will be handed In.
It Is stated that by this combination the
cost of grading these two blocks con be
reduced to a minimum. The dirt taken off
tho J street hilt Is to be used In filling
the gully In I street. As the haul Is a
short one graders say that bids tor this
work will be vory low. Councilman John
ston and othors assert that tbc value of
property in the neighborhood of the Pres
byterian church will bo greatly Increased
by the grading of these two blocks.

With the return of Dr. Knsor from his
northern trip the fight among the demo
crats for mayor Is on In earnest. Knsor
Is anxious to hold down tho mayor's chair
for another term, but he Is meeting with
considerable opposition from George Parks.
Mr. Parks alroady has a nice llttlo boom
afloat and ho says tbat ho Is confident of
winning out in the convention. Kd John
ston Is In the field. He expects to get' tho
endorsement of tho people for having
worked hard for the passago of the now
charter. Sinco his detent for county com
missioner Tom Hoctor is making a movo to
secure the mayoralty nomination from the
democrats. John J. Ryan Is inclined to feel
soro over his detent for county commis
sioner and he threatens to become a candi
date for mayor In order to even up with
some of his political enemies. There Is
really more talk on tho streets theso days
about tho race for mayor than about tho
November election.

Any man or woman who wants soft,
glossy hair must be free of dandruff, which
causes falling hair. Since it has become
known that dandruff is a germ disease the
old hnlr preporatloni), that were mostly
scalp Irritants, have been abandoned and
the public, barbers and doctors Included,
have taken to using Newbro's Herplclde,
the only hair preparation that kills the
