10 THE OMATTA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY. MARCTT 29. 1003. CURRENT LITERATURE. Atom of Kmplre." by C. J. Cutcllffe Hynn, I a story the opening wpiw of which In laid on the coasts of West Af rica. The conversation carried on among colonial officials would make some mis sionary societies 'boll.-' "I wish," iiald Charter!, ''that we could get some of those ranting, whining fool out here for a bit to see for themselves the mischief they are doing. Hut no fear of that; they are mak ing a living out of their Billy theories. What's worse, good, old mutton-headed England believes them. West Africa la a poisonous swamp that isn't worth sticking to the white man Is still the palm-oil ruf fian of fifty year ago the black man Is a little angel, only kept from being drowned in gin by their pious efforts. The sole rea son the country isn't chucked away to France, or Germany, or any one else who wants It, Is because It's such a fine hunt ing ground for the blessed missionary." "Tommy," he said, "wet your whistle, and don't waste your wind. It's no use tell ing all this stale history to us because we know already, and it's no use going home and shouting it out tbere, because people would only look superior and not believe you If you did." But our friends were busy empire-making and had little time to give vent to their ruffled opinions. The story Js full of incidents and adventure. The horrors of a "cholera ship" are given a vivid description. While happy to admit our inability to give an opinion from per sonal knowledge of such a dreadful affair, we are willing to stake our reputation that there Is not one harrowing detail omitted. But all these things muit be with empire making. Published by the Macmlllan company. "little Burr," by Charles Felton Pidgin (Robinson, Knee company, Boston), Is a volume which causes the reader to ask, "What Is the use?" Napoleon has said that history 1 a lie which all accept and admitting this to be true. It Is especially true of Aaron Ilurr a man whose ability no one doubts, and who has been made the type of the American Fra Dlavolo. The author of "Little Burr" says this was the work of his enemies. Maybe it was, but It Is a sad commentary on the life of the man to know that he was compelled to wait until after all of his associates had died to find a person anxious to do him justice. The book Is well written and throws side lights on American revolu tionary history which are probably as ac curate aa any found in a work which pro fesses to be "fiction with a mission." "'Daily Cheer Year Book," compiled by M. Ailette Ayer. Each day in the year Is provided with a page of well chosen ex tracts from the best writers.. The Intro duction is written by Rev. Francis E. Clark, D. D. It Is a charming volume and should bring hope and Joy to every one to whom It speaks Its cheery message. Pub lished by I.eo & Shepard. "Jack in the Rockies," by George Bird Orinnell, Is the story of a boy's adventure With a pack' train. Civilization wns not as near then as now, but our friends were Hot ultogetlier Inexperienced In this sort Of life, so they knew how to equip them selves and where to Journey to have a pleasant time. There were buffalo to hunt, and the beauties of the Yellowstone park to Investigate, to say nothing of Indians and grizzlies. The book is prettily and appropriately illustrated, and it is safe to presume thut nil ages of boys will enjoy reading "Jack In the Ruckles." Frederick A. Stokes company, publishers. "The Touch of Nature," retold by August Mendon Lord.

Apparently the theater goer's fancy Is nicely Indulged at the Orpheum this week for the vaudeville Ih not only attracting large houses, but the enthusiasm mani fested for the different nets Is of that marked degree that In the termology of the theater the 'stunts" would be de scribed as "hits." Jack Norworth, with funny stories and song, is making good his title, "the life of every party." Cole and Johnson are proving a decidedly mag netic card and are to be commended not only for bringing new songs, but good ones, and they deserve the success they achieve. Drako's sheep are' a genuine novelty, being the first of their kind to Interest to Orpheumites. A matinee will be given Thursday. It Is always a pleasure to announce the coming of the Al Q.

In refinement and In, art. It Is said to be superior to any first part Mr. Field has given to the public. Environed by the lights Hnd the shadows of the forge, and Inspired by the melody of the anvil and hammer, the Quaker City quartet Ih said to give a hlgh-cluss entertainment of 'song and comedy. This act Is relieved by 'the as tonishing Avolns, who da a series of swings and somersuults from perpendicular bars.

An Interesting- demonstration of radium energy was made at the Umaha High school building. It was made In the In terest of the pupils In the physics ! of Mr. Bernstein, in order to convey some Idea to the mind of the student of the nature of ions.
