The edttor of this excellent illustrated journal announces that the distinguished novelist , Mr. Henry James , has com pleted a serial story , "The Turn of the Screw , " that is shortly to appear in its columns. The story , it is said , is to be one of Mr. James' most powerful works , while preserving the distinction of style that has made him famous. It deals , it is said , with some of the aspects of the supernatural. The regular staff of Col lier's includes already a brilliant array of literary names : Edgar Saltus , Julian Hawthorne , Edgar Fawcett , and John Habberton are a few of its regular con tributors. During the coming year this journal , according to its editorial an nouncement , is about to enlarge its al ready sufficiently varied and ambitious scope. The illustrations are to be put on a higher level than before and sev eral new literary departments to be in augurated. Such a programme will un doubtedly attract the attention of the intelligent reading public , who are quick to seize upon what is best in both litera ture and art. Collier's Weekly , Nov. 18. The current number of Collier's Week ly is replete with matter of interest to lovers of literature. The staff of this able journal is composed of writers of the first rank. The editorials are always forceful and scholarly , the fiction excel lent , the illustrations timely and artis tic. Edgar Saltus and Julian Hawthorne contribute paragraphic comments of in cisive interest , and Edgar Fawcett writes from London of the topics , literary and social , that agitate the English capital. The cartoon by Sonntag illustrative of the Cuban Situation and our stand with regard to fillibustering throws graphic light on this much-mooted question. The editor of Collier's announces a new short story by Henry James as soon forthcoming , with others by Zangwill and writers of like prominence to follow. Also weekly articles on Books , the Dra ma , Fashion , and Finance. We look forward with interest to these develop ments of this ambitious and entertaining weekly. The City Council.
