Rear Admiral Capps, the Chief of the Buran of Construction, who is still in Norfolk. known to be of the opinion that construction of the modern battle ship Has been vindicated against the attack of torpedo of the present type.

Secretary Metcalf, who was one of the eterested witnesses of the test, said to- meht: experiment was perfectly satisfac- tory. The Monitor got to her drydock at about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, where, of course, she will be repatred. She was not seriously injured, and I believe she could have made the dock under her own steam." METCALF'S DEDUCTION. Secretary Metcalf was asked what effect the demonstration would have on modern naval warfare. He said: "'That question is answered by the fact that the torpedo attack was directed against modern naval construction, and besides, the torpedo was of extraordinary power, carrying 220 OILe pounds of guncotton, which was largely in excess of the average." Admiral Mason returned here to-day, but he said that he did not care to give any information on the subject of the test, further than had already been allowed by the departinent.

"POEMS." -By Underwood Johnson, New York. The Century Company, In this tasteful volume is found a somewhat full collection-or, perhaps, we should say selection--from the author's a separate volumes, under the titles of Winter Hour, and Other Poems." and "Songs of Liberty, and Other Poems," published during the last 16 years, with many poems written more recently, and which are classed here as "Paraphrases From the Servian of Zmai lovan res Iovanovich (after literal translations by Nikola Tesla), "Italian Rhapsody, and Other Poems." "Poems of Heart and Soul," "Moments of Italy," "Poems of Morai Beauty or Conflict." and "Miscellaneous Poems." Among the exceedingly varied contents many will prefer the pleasing domestic sentiment expressedcombining with fireside love and affection for family and friends- the love of books, of music, of pictures of art 'and artists, who are named and characterized-in the long poem written in octosyllabic verse, entitled "The Winter Hour." To this in the present volume is prefixed the following pleasant little piece, with the English proverb quoted, "When the gorse is out of bloom, then love 1 is out of season:" "AN INVOCATION: TO THE GORSE. Hardy gorse, that all year long Bloom upon the English moor, Let me set thee at the door Of this little book. of song. When the dreary winter lowers, Vainly lost thou seek a fellow To thy blossom brave and yellowColor of the cheeriest flowers.

Other readers will prefer to such as we named several poems in which Mr. Johnson has treated of public affairs, as "The Voice of Webster." "Hands Across Seas' (recognizing comparatively recent friendly dispositions shown between England and America), an to Greece," part of which was translated into modern Greek and published in the official record of the Olympian games of 1906, Other readers, again, will be pleased to recognize Mr. Johnson's feeling toward his literary friends, as in the lines "To One Who Never Got To Rome' -referring to the late E. C. Stedman, with those of lighter and gayer touches, "Divided Honors," written for a dinner to James Whitcomb Riley: Tracer for John Burroughs." while not a few will recognize with pleasure the light and happy touch of domestic feeling in Measure of Love" (in this case it is a child's love which is measured), "As a Bell in a Chime," and "An Irish Love Song." The latter our readers may thank us for quoting: AN IRISH LOVE SONG.

In the years about twenty (When kisses were plenty) The love of an Irish lass fell to my fateSo winsome and sightly, So saucy and sprightly, The priest was a prophet that christened her Kate. Soft gray of the dawning. Bright blue of the morning, The sweet of her eye there was nothing to mate; A nose like a fairy's, A cheek like a cherry's, And a smile-well, her smile was like-nothing but Kate.

Throughout Mr. Johnson's book. the poems in which have comparatively, little of what may be called a popular element, there is a sense of the author's love of beauty in art as well as in nature, and of good in everything. Here, by the way, before closing, let us find room for a cunning little bit of verse which shows (one must read it carefully) what difference is haplessly wrought by making two words of one.

Printers should note it well: THE INTERPRETERS. One conned my with cynic art, Then smiled, as though he found a friend in me, And read: "If Love alone possess your heart, Then can you never more unhappy be." Another, feeling still Love's bitter dart, Smiled through her joyful tears triumphantly, And read: "If Love alone possess your heart, Then can you nevermore unhappy be." "THE GREATER LOVE'-By Anna McClure Scholl. New York: The Outing Publishing Company. In a certainly well- written novel, satirical of empty moral pretension, Anna McClure Scholl has here sketched, against a background of tragic experience, the carcer of Elcanor Hatherley, an American woman, a celebrated portraitist who, during the siege of Paris, had incurred perforce a stigma through her love for Geoffrey Valgrave, an Englishman, whose wife, though living, had been deprived through her own fault of her place in her husband's life, yet from whom he could not be divorced. It is through Constance, her blamelers daughter, that Eleanor is exposed to the suffering, the inevitability of which it is the story's aim' to accentuate.

Taking Constance with her, the mother has returned to her native Broadhurst, a thriving' litt'e provincial settlement which puffs itself immensely, and where dwell, in the midst of the unco righteous, some relations without the bowels of pity-all save Thomas, her one kindly brother, the Christian humanity of whom even a Broadhurst may not blight, and her nephew Edmund, also not disemboweled, and who falls, by the by, in love with Constance. The Hatherleya are a proud race. They have traditions. Their remotest antecedents were genteel. They possibly had a boat of th-ir own at the time of the flood.

Ministerial physlognomies scowl fretfully down at you-faces, some of them, that, doubtless, Copley painted. But the home of their fathers has gone to decay, or been condemned. Broadhurst, as indicated, has now no quaint oid colonial residences. Before the onset of a mongrel order both taste and sentiment have long since unconditionally surrendered. In particular is William Hatherley renovated.

His clutch, verily, is upon all things. A phenomenally successful person, a record-smashing money maker -in fact, money -the creature is a degenerate of hoarding capacity second to none, materially speaking. But spiritually he transcends even his worldly state. He's a perfected whited sepulcher incarnate, pure as the driven snow. In brief.

this other brother, regarded as a spiritual tent, has positively no faults--is not, that is, aware of any. A morality of moralities. he is a living proof of what moral perfection is in the absence of charity. This moralist monstrosity's demeanor toward Eleanor is as rigid almost as is his sectarian orthodoxy, an enthusiasm ne shares with local high church Anglican curate. This young Episcopal priest is a stepson of one of the tribe.

He, in his turn. succumbs to the charms of Constance. In Ane, the two are soon engaged not that Constance in the least loves the minister. The betrothal is but the consequence of a reactionary impulse on the part of Mrs. Valgrave, who, in the bitterness of her lot, has foolishly determined to seek for her child the loveless continental plan of alliance, and Constance, whose education is French, is plastic material- at all events.

is for the present indifferent. She even learns at length rather to like, in a way, her prospective lord, after all, shouldn't appear so insignificant were he not a prig. But a prig the curate is. And Edmund's mother, jealous for her son-brooding over his defeat has, at a basaar, waylaid this starchy little character and, inveigling him into the vestry, has told him 'all she knows" of the facts, which principally is nothing. in hearing of second tattler a male all ears, beneath the window, and who zealously earns forthwith, at the hands of a friend of Eleanor's, a pretty bit of punishment.

In point of fact, neither female, 80 to speak, goes without her reward. But this belated discipline no wise saves Eleanor- Constance. Either, it is true, is worth hundred and fifty thousand of the insect genus Broadhurst, but then there are grooves grooves the intersection of which are of growingly peculiar interest to the student of human entomology.

H. have power to blur still more deeply Eleanor's fate, for the aspersion circulated is further to atrophy the man of the cloth through prompting him to break the engagement, a circumstance which were wholly fortunate did it not create elements in the situation that make heavier Eleanor's "sorrow's crown of sorrow in rendering it incumbent upon her to state frankly the entire case to Constance and rest it, at great risk, upon her judgment, which, as she later is to discern, has not been broadened by the sympathy that comes of understanding. "LAWLESS WEALTH Charles Edward Russell. B.

Dodge Co. The book is largely composed of a series of articles originally published in Everybody's Magazine some time after Mr. Lawson's "Frenzed Finance" had terminated. Presented now in concrete form "Lawless Wealth" is extremely interesting reading. It is educational, too, so far as the methods of stock manipulation and corporation financing and floating are concerned.

According to the figures of sociologists, the author tells us, there are in New, York 10,000 persons who are rich, 500,000 who are well to do, 1,500,000 who are poor and 000 that are very poor. "And the 10,000 hold the palladium of national progress." Starting from a study of these rich and some of their Fifth avenue palaces he comments on one: "The proprietor of the first house was not a great merchant, he established no mart, he brought together no producer and consumer, he assisted in no way to supply any demand. Wealth he has in huge superfluity until he knows not what to do with it, but not a dollar of it represents any service done or any want supplied." A broad and harsh statement this, but the author proceeds in a leisurely discourse of facts, with a thin or with no disguise of the persons involved, to vindicate his accusations. And yet among those whose careers and methods are shown in the full light there are some whose successful audacity can but be admired. Take, for instance, his picture of Thomas F.

Ryan: A boy 17 years old left penniless, with an aged grandmother to support. He finds his way to Baltimore, and there a grocer engages him to keep the store swept, directing him to begin work the following mornIng. Ryan takes off his coat with, "If you please, sir, I'll begin now:" thereupon settling down to a three-dollar-a-week job, from which, with a tireless energy and indomitable spirit, he climbs ever upward. until we see him, Ryan, a world power in finance. The story of the State Trust Company is recited and recalls strange actions of men, then and now, in high official circles; the Broadway franchise deal, where the city fathers deliberately sold the city's rights and fought among themselves for the spoils; the wonderful and fascinating story of Terkes's street railway coups, the Tobacco Trust, the Philadelphia gas steal-these and many other transactions are minutely explained.

But, alas, what is the use? As the author says, "The net result of our virtuous indignation about the insurance scandals are a few men worried to death, two or three in exile, two obscure persons sentenced to prison and the game exactly as before." Commenting on the stock manipulation "formula for as he terms it, the author asks: "If it is necessary these gentlemen should have it, should we not fare better if we gave them their huge fortunes direct from the National Treasury and hired them to keep their hands off us and our affairs?" "No other nation on earth," he says, "has ever tolerated any such machine for the making of billionaires and paupers. there not ground for the suspicion that we have tolerated it long enough?" Perhaps; but it is merely a suspicion. "WHAT THE WHITE RACE MAY LEARN FROM THE INDIAN'-By George Wharton James. Chicago: Forbes Co. Writing of the Indian from extensive experience, Mr.

James reflects here that experience in few ringingly complimentary words for his subject, whom, though admitting freely his blemishes, he yet finds in most respects to be a moral superior in every way worthy our emulation. Singular as, at first blush, the contention may seem to the mapority, It still is convincingly maintained. A return to the rational simplicity of the red race is the project advocated: and certainly, as one passes from page to page, noting the points in this behalf advanced, whether prejudiced or not, he cannot successfully controvert them. The writer is at times harsh in his attitude toward the absurd complications of modern existence. One thing pecially he, in making comparteons, scathingly and with justice vituperates, namely.

the system of education of to-day, the eternal "cramming" process -which leaves, usually, the mind virtually vacant and wrecks permanently, often, the physique; and which, destructive to the powers of mental concentration, wherever originalitythe only genuine result open to intellectual achievement-is in question, stunts all effort worth while and renders the victim severely dependent upon rote- upon the memoriter memory, which is very well, we simply are machines, but which in cadiy where pride Sale all incomplete reductions are genuine, and will power so strongly emphasized.

Pogue ment is concerned; for any natural fool can repeat or imitate. Here mimicry rather-but we depart from the point.

The author-unlike others we might namewould not blot out from life's varied curricula the grace of childhood. He would-as does the Indian-give the young idea a chance. He doesn't, perhaps, take literally the old saw that would have the child the father of the man. Yet looking about uswith our ears open -we easily might interpret the saying to be of late, scarcely Agurative, if not indeed restileted to the letter absolutely. At this juncture he ventures advice suggested by the schooling of the better Indian, who, while as the poet Campbell puts from his tree-rocked cradle to his bier, The fierce extremes of good and ill to and although "without a tear," is made human, at the least, by his crude nurture, to which, it may be recalled, the early training of our dead great has been, as a rule, analogous.

Wholesomely broadened into kindliness, too, Mr. James has found his red friend. Witness, in this regard, the Indian's compassionate idealization of deformity which, with us, evokes contempt, brutal and intolerant; his attributing it to supernatural favor-in order, if possible, to mitigate the affliction; and note the other impressive traits which Mr. James describes for our entertainment and which are imbibed, usually, in the course of the Indian's development and made the framework of his character. Then the art of this primitive Americanwhich, by the way, there are cuts to trate.

What care they--his people--take, as the writer remarks, to see that beauty adorns and refines utility; and beauty it is, in truth, the Indian's art work, original in design and marked with individuality, not! as so much of our effort is, coypist, slavishly copyist, and performed by drudges, whose skill is confined, duitously, to endlessly hackneyed themes. In other comparisons made, under this head, with a view to our enlightenent, the commentator greatly interests us; and in this and other conned, tions he discusses -we would add-our relation to the vanishing aborigines in an earnest tone, offering us the information of one manifestly qualified to treat adequately the issues raised, in language vigorously graphic. Colonel John Joyce. Chicago: Regan Printing and Publishing Company. We once heard somebody say that, in the beginning, when Truth was put in the bottom of the well, it was meant that she should stay there, since she is often too disagreeable a lady to be a general favorite in polite society.

Colonel Joyce-if we may change the figure has been for many years drawing it up in small draughts, somewhat laboriously, it would seem, for there are nearly 200 pages, each containing from 12 to 24 sentences on the subject-rather too much truth, it might at Arst appear. However, the author says: "There are more short, wise, witty, various, defiant and independent sayings in this rare volume than have ever been uttered in ancient or modern times from the brain of any other author." (This is plain and unvarnished--let us hope it is the whole truth as well!) Here are a tew sentences chosen at random: "Those who work with a smile and a song have a halt-holiday."

VICE MAYOR And Prominent Citizens Pay a Tribute of Farewell To Colonel R. E. Ho of the tion Army. Farewell services, over which Vice Mayor Galvin presided, were tendered Colonel R. E.

Hola, Provincial Commander of the Salvation Army, at the Citadel, on East Eighth street, yesterday afternoon. Colonel Holz has been transferred to the Atlantic Coast territory. After an introduction by Staff Captain Richards, Mr. Galvin read a letter from Mayor Markbreit, in which he expressed his regret in not being able to attend the farewell ceremonies and commending Colonel Holz for the work he had accomplished in behalf of the Salvation Army in this eity. Vice Mayor Galvin said that while he regretted the departure of Colonel Holz, he thought such changes were beneficial as teaching discipline and obedience to orders, which is SO much a part of the work of the army.

Councilman O' Brien, of the Sixth Ward, where the Balvation Army has had its headquarters ever since it has been established In Cincinnati, paid a high tribute to the work and kindheartedness of Colonel Holz, whom he had known for nine years. Rev. Charles Goss also commended the work done by the army and by Colonel Holz individually. In his response, after thanking ail for their kind wishes, Colonel Hols gave a brief review of his connection with the army, in which he has been an officer for 25 years. Staff Captain Richards will be tendered farewell with 40 divisional officers on July 12, after which he will join Colonel Holz at Philadelphia.

Major Andrews, of Pittsburg, will probably succeed Captain Richards in the work in this district. AUTOMOBILE MAP. C. S. Mendenhall, of Cincinnati, has just issued an automobile map and guide of Kentucky, accompanied by three district maps of the state.
