'Nature-Worship and Taboo African Tribal by Professor W. C. Willoughby, retired, of the Kennedy School of Missions, has recently been published by the Hartford Seminary Press and is its first mib ication in several years The author, who left Hartford last summer to return to his old home in Eneland. snent 12 vears in At rica under the Kennedy School of Missions. The spirits of the mighty dead of the African plains live again in the scholarly descriptions ot professor Willoughby.

Many of these spirits' are deified heroes, the chiefs of ancient days, and ancestor gods who once were men. Professor Willoughby writes interestingly of the subject, taboo, that misty borderland between religion and magic. These include taboos nertalnine to foods those most no ticeable to the cursory traveler which are here expertly analyzed; foods taboo to men, others to worn en, some to both, and still others to young people and children; foods taboo to one tribe Rita thus hored, but greatly to be desired by another tribe. Myriads or taboos that have to do with the relation of the sexes the beginning of life. and especially with death and graves also are cited.

Intriguing pages devoted to taboos having to do with the abnormal and uncanny, among which in many parts of Africa, twins must be grouped. How warriors and other slayers may be purified from taboos, and the means by which all who have broken taboos may be saved from at least some of the consequences is de scribed. Professor wilioughbys book on Africa, with the Bantu tribes as his particular subject, have won for him distinction as an authority in that field. He has spent a greater part of his Hie in close contact with Africa and its people. He has been on several English expedi tions into the Dark Continent.

Professor Willoughby has been made a fellow of the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and and a fellow of the Royal Geographical Society.

Your mother was chosen as its manager and almoner. Your father.

Captain Sluyter, was her sturdy though unofficial assistant. You and your two sisters were Sage MRS. ELIZABETH S. AYRES. her care and her comfort.

In that family, and in the midst of the Union's activities, you grew to wom anhood, became your mother's asso ciate and upon her retirement, took her place. It seemed a place im possible for anyone to fill, for your momers guts ana cnaracter were unique. Her mind was of the san est, her insight was a marvel, her intuitions seemed to come from above; they were not the endow ment of common humanity. Her faith and courage led the Union's managers and supporters to do a work for Hartford's poor, discour aged and suffering, never of recora, that has biessea tnousanas. You have not only carried on her work, but in changing times have expended it.

Hartford was a village in 1872. Today it is almost a mighty city. As the Union's manager, your service has enlarged with Hartford's growth and change, and you have met their needs. you nave ieit, aj times, pernaps, sharp diversity between your mother's viewpoint and your own. You may have even sighed for her peculiar inspiration and1 again deprecated the worth of certain of her peculiar powers.

ne assurea Dy us, wno Know ana loved you both, who love and trust you now, that you are like your mother. You are her own child but of modern days. While at this anniversary time, our hearts are filled with dear memories or ner, we ten you now, knowing the shortcomings of our words, of our affection for you, our gratitude to you, our unbounded trust in you, and in large part because of you, our faith in the Union's future."

Disposition of the ashes has not been A review of the American stage would reveal few actresses who attained to greater heigh: the world of dramatic art than those reached hv Minnie Maddern Fiske in her professional career of more than 60 vears. during which she won universal praise for the remarkable character of her emotional acting. Ker stage debut was made at the age of three. She was declared to be unequalled among English-speaking actresses In the spring of 1897, after her sensational success in Thomas Hardy's -Tess of the d'Urbevilles." Two years later, the critics added many golden words to the chronicle of her attainments when they described her marvelous acting In "Becky Sharp," a piav founded on Thackeray's "Vanity Fair.

This production is said to have been the most notable of her many successes. Excelled As Producer. Mrs. Fiske. in addition to being a i great actress, also excelled as a stage manager and producer of plays.

The late Mme. Rejane, one of the foremost French actresses, paid many tributes to her American contemporary ability in this field, "As a producer of plays." she said, "Mrs. Fiske has no superior in Europe. Mrs. Fiske was born in New Orleans.

Louis, Cin-1 cinnati and Montreal Despite her ever changing residence, her educt-tion was methodical, supervised, as It was, by her mother, a woman of broad culture. At the age of 16, Minnie Maddern became a star. A year later she made her first appearance In a musical play, "Caprice," which proved a genuine success, although she never followed it through. She is remembered in this for her song, "In the Gloaming," which had just been written. In l-0 she was married to Harrison Grey Fiske, autnor and journalist, whereupon she retired from the stage until 18P4, reappearing as the heroine of "Hester Crew." a play written by her husband.

Subsequently she appeared in "A Dolls House," "Frou-Frou," "The Queen of Liars," and a from St. Agnes," which she wrote herself. It was in "Salvation NtH" perhaps that she displayed her greatest skill as an emotional actress In the first art Mrs. Fiske, as the scrub-woman In a barroom, sat holding her drunken lover head in her lap for a full ten minuses without a word, almost without a motion. Gradually the audience could watch nothing else; it became absorbed in the silent pathos of that dumb, sitting figure.

Mary Garden said of this: "Ah, to be able to 'do nothing' like that." During the latter years of her life Mrs. Fiske made her home in New York. Despite her age Mrs. Fiske continued active to the last.
