VEn THE nnniinn. Br Herman Wbttnkrr. (1.40.) A capital story In Herman Whlt-akcr's Over the Harder (Harpers) Is east In the shado by tho frank denunciation of everything Mexican, past and present, und by the contemptuous demonstration of the disastrous effects of American diplomacy. Tlio author handles the mutter without gloves and prefers to call alpado by the most opprobrious equivalent he can find; he 'starts with the old gringo prcjudlco i against greasers Intensified, and In his account of what has been going on In Jncent months across the border takes ars that no virtue shall appeur In any Mexican and that the brutal horrors Hrhall bo brought homo to the reader. iHe even makes his American heroine y' relate a ghoulish Jest that is revolting.

He echoes the disgust of all Americans Who have Interests across the line at the weakness of the United States in handling the Mexican troubles and at its failure to protect Its citizens and their property; ho rends every political party In Mexico Impartially, especially the Villa Insurgents, whom ho uses In his talc. Thcro Is a lot of information about Mexico and Mexicans to be from the book by the reader Who can use discrimination. The story the epic of three American outlaws who havo sunk low.

In the following episodes, lior crazo for the literary man and for the octor, the young person's foolishness seems foreign rather than American and tho funnlness Is a llttlo forced.

an.) The Canadian wilds have taken tho place of Robinson Crusoe's Island In modern fiction and Francis fcyndo now tries his hand at figuring what a young womeja nff4 a young man would do If Stranded in Arcady (Charles Scrlbner'a Sons). They aro strangers to each other and arc dumped, after being rendered maensclous, from an aeroplane on the borders of a lake In the Canadian woods a long way from civilisation. Tho youth Is a writer of fiction and is unusually helpless under primitive conditions; the young woman is an Independent school teacher. They discover a providential canoe with provisions, and while they drift down stream to a settlement they exchange views on a great many matters, become acquainted, and by tho time that they are properly interested In each other they discover how and why thoy have been forced Into their adventure. The book will be pleasant summer reading.

ABB, STOREKEEPER. (Snlljr and Klclnlelch.) By James A. Cooper, (f 1.3S.) In invading Mr. Lincoln's territory on Cape Cod James A. Cooper, with Cap'n Abe, Storekeeper (Sully and Klelntelch.

New York), has greater success than might be anticipated. There is plenty of sea atmosphere, though the scene is rather Indefinite; it might be anywhere on the coast as much as on tho Capo. It Is tho interior of the storo and the hero, however, that tho author wishes to Impress on us. While the old storekeeper with his extraordinary transformation 1 decidedly stagy, the yarns he tells are excellent and the crowd that hangs around the store Is true to life. There arc amusing peoplo and a pleasant love, affair In the story also.

THE ECHO OP VOICES. (Alfred A. Knopf.) Br Illcbard Carlr. (Sl.BO.) Tho eight short stories contained In Klchard Curie's Thn Echo of Voices (Alfred A. Knopf.

New York) are re markable not ohly for their English but for the art with, which they arc worked out. They give the Impression of being exercises in which tho author Is testing his powers of expression and of analysis, but two or threo of them are very perfect works of art. Terror or horror, as tho author chooses. Is Inspired by simple means, and the psychological problems presented aro fa'r nnd not merely hair splitting. It is ex tremely promising work, for the author appreciates sentiment and docs not take the gloomy view that realists seem to think essential.

When he finds a real plot he 'will attract attention. Mr. Conrad's Judgment of him Is fully justinea Dy tnese tales: "There's a lot In him." KXCHASTMEXI. Annletona.) Br E. Temple Thornton.

(SI An Irish version of "Cinderella" la expanded into a volume by B. Temple Thurston in Enchantment fAnnln- tons) by the exercise of considerable volubility. The author spends much time over the birth of tho heroine and tho heroic spells of Intoxication of tho Irish squire her father. lie gives glimpses of tho Impecunious shirtless- ness that Lever and Lover made famil iar, ana naits the story to moralize and philosophize over whatever strikes his fancy. lie evolves a hero In tho same way out of the son of a rascally Waterford wlno dealer, sends him after adventures and keeps on moralizing.

A young man who has had tho pluck and energy to work his way through college, to win athletic honors and to stand high In his studies bo-comes suddenly extremely rich. He proceeds to display his lgnW.inco of social customs, to bo taken In bysharp-nrs nnd to Indulge In drunken orgies, somo of which aro described graphically.

noon Mou.M.vn Rosamond. (Donhlrdny, Pane and Company.) By ConaUnr Lindsay Skinner. It is Impossible to bellcvo that the two sen-ants, Jemima and Amanda, talked to their mistress, tho rich young widow, as wo find them doing In this story. That, however, is no matter, for this does offer tu bo a cautiously realistic tale. Its humor Is as daring as It is incessant.

"Vou'ro not fat ns compared with some, but you've got a general curve to you. which is dn'y to be expected In tho daughter of farmer's figure." That Is a bit from a Joint lecture by tho two domestics, addressed to Rosamond whllo she was trying to enjoy her breakfast. Thoy reminded her constantly of her humble. origin. It was well that they were called away to see their sick mother and that Rosa mo ml could havo her "wonderful day." It was wonderful Indeed.

The flno dresses that sho put tho cake that the made, tho "proposals" that threatened her, the afternoon visit from twelve of tho ladles of Itoseborough, tho remarkable conversation of these ladles, the running away or Judge Olffen's horso with the Judge, tho dve-nlng party with cards nnd chicken salad all Is pictured here, and not a bit of the description is tame. Hut It was ofter the party, it was In tho dead of advanced night, that the tramp stepped In nt the window and demanded food. If anybody supposes that tho tramp and Ilo-amond talked and behaved in a manner only feebly surprising ho will bo greatly mis taken. "A shot snapped through the foowpt, nulckI. by another.

THE MAN I.V EVENING CLOTHES. (G.

P. rntnnm'a Son.) n' John Heed SroU. (111.30.) Tho gentleman thief who relates his adventures In John Reed Scott's The Man in Evening Clothes (G. P. Putnam's Sons) takes moro Interest in relating his sprightly conversations with various persons and his flirtations than In describing the uctual thefts.

This detracts from the Interest of the story, whetlter as a talo of criminal adventure or of mystery. Tho narrator's specialty Is pilfering nnd storing away the Jewels which a mysterious stranger has already taken from tho owners. The stranger Is eliminated at tho end with no satisfactory explanation, after tho narrator tins confessed his wrong doing to a young woman on whom ho has tict wed his affection. The story Is readable but rsithdr disappointing. THE MASTER, OK BONNE TEnilE.

Tho way In which a singularly upright Mtssourlan was enabled td retain a valuable lead mine In tho Ozark Mountains despite the machinations of dishonest men nnd then to develop It is told at groat length by William An tony Kennedy In The Master of lionnc Tare (Robert J. Stores, New York). The author describes the peoplo of tho region and their way In much detail, bringing In reminiscences of the civil war; he also delights lu dwelling on lone conversations which nre often immaterial, thus making his story too lone nnd nbscurlnir tho essential lncl dents.

Kvery reader will regret that tho author of "Present Dny Europe" (Tho Century Company) did not defer writ ing his intcrentlng and thoughtful book until tho cIobo of tho war. Ho says In his Introduction that this is not story of current ovcnls, but study of Europos stnteg of mind.
