By .otiis Tracy , Author of' ' i1 fl American Emperor , " "The .F'IIa1 ( lVcir,5' ' dc. Bcjan August 7 and Continues Ten Weeks. Mr , rraey is well known es a brilliant young writer , who has achieved the dimcuit task of blaz- in . 'ut a new and untrodden path in the well explored domain of . story writing. Instead of historical fiction , he has devoted himself to fIctitious history and his success in this original line has made him ono of the most popular authors of the day , both In America and in Eng- land. In Its broad lines , "Tho Lost Provinces" resembles Mr. Tracy' . earlier story , "An American Eta- iueror. " Vansittart , the American million- sire , who does tile most remarkable things in a. thoroughly matter-of- fact way , Is the principal figure in this story. Some oC the other char- actere have 1ikcs'iso been made familiar by "An American Emperor - peror , " but the scene of action and the course of the story are entirely - tirely different and the tale is even more skillfully told. As the tale suggests , the story deals with the struggle between Franca and Germany over the lost provinceB ot the former. In dbro straits , Franca appeals to the wealthy American who once before proved her salvation. lIe imtne- diateiy responda and sets out across tiuo Atlantic on his private I yacht. An attempt is rondo by the Germans to capture him , but ho escapes through the intervention of an English man-of-war and arrives - rives safely in Paris , where he is welcomed as the ooo hope of the despairing nation , Vansittart becomes - comes commander-in-chief of the army , and the military operations , through which ho brings the war to a successful issup , occupy the chief part of the story. The story is made lively and in- terestbng by the adventures and mishaps of Foillctt , the Parts detective - tectivo ; by "Arizona Jim , " a west- ore cowboy , who accompanies Van- sittart in the capacity of bodyguard - guard ; by the eccentric French inventor - ventor , Armand Duprez ; by German spIes and French soldiers and bonnes. The treats' of peace , fInally contracted by Vansittart and tb3 German emperor , is unique and hi&ily democratic In its terms , The author lies made the most of a large amount of interesting material in this new story , and the few persons who have soon it pro- flounce it the best work that Mc , Tracy has ( lone thus far , There is a charming variety and pictur- esquenes in the characters pro- seated and the story moves on its wiiy with a sprightliness of action which moaites it especially suited to use as a newspaper serial , THE SUNDAY BEE a- READ EVERY CHAPTERS 4 , _ _ _ J
