Athlotkt Training.

By Michael C. Murphy, edited by E. K. Buahnell. Published by Charles Scribner's tons (Sent through T.

Plllot Company, Houston.) Michael Murphy, who trained the American competitors for the last two Olympic games and had previously had charge of the Yale aad University of Pennsylvania track teams, was the most famous and successful trainer of track athletics who ever lived. In this book he has preserved the results of bis years of study and practical experience. It is the expert advice of the greatest authority on Held and track athletics. Among the topics treated are; "Diet," "Sprinting," "Middle Distance Running, and the Half-Mile, Two-Mile and Marathon Kuna." ''Hurdling," "Running Broad and Running High Jumps," "Pole Vault," "Hammer, Javelin and Discus Threwe," "Shot Put," "Relsy Racing." "The Athletic Heart." "Football Injuries." Anthony th Absolute, by Samuel Merwln. Published by the Century Company.

Anthony tolls the story of his journey to the East to make scientific phonographic records of Chinese music; of his meeting with Sir Herbert and Crocker and. finally, with Helclse, who has that rare gift, a voice perfect In Its pitch; of the events snd emotions that crowd fast after the landing in Yokohama. lielolse is a woman of winning beauty and charm. Crocker and Sir Herbert are men of the world, In all the phrase Implies. Anthony Is simple, sincere, unconventional, odd, original, a man of science.

it turns out as the story proceeds, that Crocker husband whose coarseness and cruelly have resulted In lieloise's leaving him; and that he Is pursuing her, ignorant at first of her nearness, to kill her for her desertion. Anthony, with his visionary theories cf life, which are hard hit by tacts and by the appeal of his own heart at last, haa a main part In the climaxes which hurry the reader through Mr. Merwln's buoyant diverting, delicately Ironic pages. Overland Red. Published by Houghton, Mifflin Company.

"Overland Red" I. an anonymous novel which the hackneyed phrase "red-blooded" fits like a glove. It tells cf thrilling adventures, ha.rbreadth escapes, of true love of the finest types of manhood.

"Overland Red Is a tramp, a poet, a eoby a philosopher.

By Thorns. West. Published by the Gardner ITIntlng Cleveland. O. In the Survey of February 7.

19M. Is an able article, by John A. Pith, on "Ford of Detroit." It Is one permitting the author of this book to get an excellent Insight into the policy and wisdom of Mr. Ford's 110.000,000 pront-ahartng plan. Previous to reading Mr.

Fitch's article, the author had been at a loss to pass much If any opinion on Mr. Ford's startling Innpvatlon. but now seeing It so closely allied with "The Efficient Man" and with the high cost of living, the author has thought It wise to Insert this leaflet for reviewers and lo aid the general reader In the better conceiving the Importance of his hook a teachings. The first compliment to be paid Mr. Ford I.

an acknowledgment of the fact of his being one of the very few of this age who combine the master financier and skilled production man In the one person, a great need of today and one that Is discussed throughout this work. This feature Is more especially treated In different ways by page. 48. l. M-7.

1J4-1I5. 111. 204-20S. 220-2JI. and 251.

Nowhere Is the value of this combination so forcibly demonstrated as In the capabilities and accomplishments of Mr. FoVd. and again. It I. believed that no work exceeds this book In Its plea for intelligence to start early to master the practical and then afterwards embrace the financial to give the world Fords aplenty.

Men possessing Mr. Ford's combination of the master financial and practical experience ability are scarce. If there Is not soon a great change toward the creation of the accurate worker and Intelligent skilled man. they rail become almost wholly an extinct class. The above Survey article shows a Ford car Is made every 24 seconds by a track system employing 15.000 men, more or less, working In gangs Each gang of men has some one special part to Any one having broad experience in handling men and work knows this Is all similar to a long line of street cars wherein if one stops the rcM must soon do so With a pay roll for Ij.aOO men and all the overhead and selling expenses continuing the same whether or no the production la progressing steadily.

It should not be difficult for many to perceive the great importance of every one of Mr. Ford gangs being accurate, painstaking, reliable, skilled workers The Ford's endless link chain principle of working can not be broken without dire consequences The frequent breaking of such linked chains In other specialty fields has embarrassed or ruined Industries which have tried continuous systems Involving many workmen It Is believed by the author that Mr. Ford came to perceive that with the growing magnlture of his business and the degeneration of efficiency in man. that it would be wlaer lo fortify himself with the best men obtainable during dull periods, as lately existing, than to wait until boom times were again with us. Mr.

Ford has assured hlmse'f of obtaining the cream of the present Intelligence and skill In workers. His combined ability as a financial and production man Is responsible for great profits that he has seen best to share with his employes intsead of to the consumer to help cheapen his line of today's necessary luxuries. As Soon as business booms once more, many will he compelled to seriously consider the wisdom of Mr Ford's policy as one to be universally adopted and will come to concede It would be best to bring the intelligent young early to become efficient skilled workers from which needed managers could b. selected so that no firm having the advantages to amass great profits could easily debar others of needed skill and common labor to thereby Irfcrease costs of production and living to make business a hardship for the great majority and Injure prosperity. Somebody's Luggard -Tiy F.

Randall. Published by John Lane Company. Once more Mr. Randall has produced a capital farce. The story is that of a not too scrupulous gentleman, who seizes favorable opportunity of masquerading as the heir to a fortune.

He soon finds himself beset by difficulties, and his remedies only plunge him Into deeper complications. The trouble Is caused by the popularity of a familiar type of yellow tin box. which It Is not always easy for hss taught a doxen Irish (jlrls how to print and embroider.

He has an amaxlng power of analysing strange passionate entanglements. A book like 'The Secret Agent' is like a gtent Russian novel Arnold Bennett's 'Old Wives' Tale' la a masterpiece In a perfectly different art.

Here we have rure realism, and no apparent subjectivity. I admire Wells, but he's too propagandist for me. What a brain he has!

Their gioota Is shaken off, they take an Interest again In tho London that haa always formed their world, and everything seems to bo coming out just as they would have had it when they first planned to keep lodgers. And then something happens, something with which the Buntings have no apparent connection, but which absorbs their attention and excites their horror, as It does that of all their neighbors. Tho series of singular Crimea giving rise to this popular excitement will be recognised at once by the reader as those which stirred London some years ago, which baffled the police of that period, and which have never been satisfactorily, or, rather, definitely solved to this day. Many are the solutions that have been advanced, and It Is generally believed that tho Identity of tho criminal and his method of working out his terrible destiny was long ago known to Scotland Yard. In the hands of so skillful a writer of stories as Mrs.

Her book is a splendid bit of work In the art that creates mystery In literature. Alfred Noyei to Be a Princeton Professor. Tho appended from the New York Times will Interest those who sre familiar with the beauty of Alfred Noyea' poems: Alfred Noyes.

the English poet, who Is In this country lecturing In the cause of world peace, has been asked to become a professor In the faculty of Princeton University, the Tlmee learned last night, and It Is understood that he ha agreed to accept. His election. It Is said, will be sanctioned by the trustees it their meeting In April. The position which Mr. Noyes Is to fill, It was learned.

Is a visiting professorship, with lectures on modern English literature. It will begin about the middle of next February and extend through the second term of the university, and, It la understood, will continue In thi. way for several years, from February to June. Mr. Noyes' own fondness for America, begotten of his two visits to this country, had much to do with his considering the offer of a professorship at Princeton.

Mr. Noyes could not be reached last night. He Is at present lecturing In New England. He spoke last night In the Phillip. Exeter Academy, at Exeter, N.

and will speak today at St. Mark's School, Southboro, Mass. He Is ex pected back In this city on Saturday. Mr. Noyes has been pronounced by Kipling, Swinburne snd others the foremost writer of lyric verse In the English language today, and he Is known slso as one of the very few men who have contrived to make a living, and a very good Jiving, out of poetry.

Indeed, It haa been said that he was the only 'man who relied on his verse alone for actual support, and was not disappointed by the Muse. He has upset many traditions of the art of poetry. He dresses fashionably, looks like an athlete, and Insists on giving poetry a commercial status and making it pay. Mr Noyes came to this country first on February 23, 1K13. partly to lecture for world peace and disarmament and partly to satisfy the desire of his wife, who was Miss Garnett Oanlel.

of Washington, that he should gather fresh experiences in her home land. In his lectures on poetry he prophesied a tremendous boom In the cult of poetic utterance, such as that heralded by Tennyson and Browning, and he urged American poets to share In the rich fruits of such a boon and to seek higher prices. Mr Noyes' first lecture tour lasted six weeks and extended as far west is Chiiagi It proved so profitable that he de I led to make a second trip to this country fb October last, and to stay six months. In this trip he visited the principal universities of the country. Including Princeton.

There he read at a public lecture from his own works, and the next morning read other selections of his poetry at meeting of the senior class of the college. He was the guest of President Hlbben of Princeton tt the time, and the impression no iflade on the faculty and undergraduates was so favorable that the suggestion was made that he he asked to Join the '( of tho university as a professor. I I Mr. Noyes is 33 years old. and has been writing poetry Tor mom than -0 1 years.

One morning wnen he was 9 years old. he said, he awoke witn an 1m-' pulse to write a poem, and he haa been 1 following the same sort of Impulses practically ever since At the age of 14 he wrote hts first epic, a production In i I rhymed verse of several thousand i describing al egorically the voyage I through life as on a ship. He sent the I poem to James 1'alne. the novelist, who. I returned It with the encouraging letters i advised him to read more and not try and publish anything for several years.

Mr Noyea waited five years. Then at the age of 1 his first poem. "Tho Symbolist. was printed in the week'y supplement of the London Times. At that time he was In Kxeter College.

Oxford, achieving a reputation far more through his prowess as an athlete, and especially on the class crew, inan as ft As soon as he left college he went to and began to devote himself entire lo the writing of poetry. When he dedicated his great epic "Drake," however, it was to the coacn ot his former rowing crew snd not to any of his celebrated literary friends. He refused steadfastly to accept any Job wherein he would have to divide his attention between his art and anything else. In 10 years he published 10 volumes of verse, ranging through nearly every conceivable style and Subject and mood, but almost always of a uniformly high degree of excellence Since the collection of hi. works In a two-volume edition two years ago.

between 7000 and 1000 copies have been sold. A Glimpse of Arthur Rackham's Home in Chalcot Gardens. Eleanor Farjeon lit an article In March St. Nicholas, entitled "Arthur Rackham, the Wlxard at Heme," gives the following lng Interesting glimpse of the great artist at home: "If you know Arthur Rackham' fairyland of books If you know ancient Aeop and modern Peter, and their Im-I mortal equals, Rip.

Woman's Home Companion. The March Woman's Home Companion contains a review of the work already done by that pubUcatlon In the great campaign for Better Bablos, which tt has been carrying on for a year and which Its Better Babies Bureau, under the direction of Anna Steese Richardson, is to carry on during the coming year.

It Is what the young poets are all going to do In a few years. "The reason for the revival cf poetry I trace to the end of the reaction against romance. When I was the romantic movement was dying away You saw it In our clothes; you it In our accents. I alone made a protest in the form of loose neckties, hut mv fellows had what was called the Oxford manner, and dressed like men of fashion or as nearly as their purses would permit "Realism waa rising all around us If you had imagination, you tried to hide It. My contemporaries lived wild lives with the manner of bishops.

Nowadays I see about nie young men of 24 or who live lives of comparative propriety In the manner of bandits. "One friend wears the cloak of an Italian student.

Love of Poetry Coming Back. "Then I began to write, nobody of the poets waa read but Tennyson; and be was read Immediately. Then for a few years poetry waa taken up again because people were looking for a new Tennyson. Then they stopped because they found that whatever they were going to get. tt wasn't another Tennyson.

We were all of the trough of the wave. A curious thing Is that the same thing happened In other countries. Art for art's sake, the disinterested service of the Muses, passed away for a time, and everywhere now It Is coming back. Paris, like London, la ceasing to be commercial In literature." "Do you find any American poets of promise?" Mr. Yeats was asked.

"One of the very best young men In England today Is Eira Pound, an American." he replied. "His work la very experimental, and he makes many failures, but hie good poems are very passionate and beautiful. There 1. no young man of whose future I feel more certain; but the very keenness of his Intellect will make his apprenticeship a long one. America Still Victorian.

"The new movement In poetry Is going to be much more purely one of art for art's sake than was the Victorian movement. The latter waa obsessed by enthusiasm, by big Ideas, and also by abstraction. Verlalne once said to me, 'I am trying to translate "In Memorlam" into French, but it is Impossible. Tennyson was too noble, too "English;" when be had many "In many ways. In this country, I think you still live In the Victorian epoch, so far as literature Is concerned.

Your very phrase 'moral Implies It. i I think all that sort of thing a misun derstanding of literature. 'Tennyson was a great poet In spite of his moral enthusiasm not because of 'this. His time was. the epoch of popular education and political enthusiasms.

Literature will not again commit that error. It will be possible to be broken-hearted when one writes about a dead friend.

Mr. Yeats, who has come over on a lecture tour, Is making his trip Inde-iwndently of the Irish players from the Abbey Theater, of whk-h he and Lady Gregory are the joint directors. "The Abbey Theater Is running smoothly In said Mr Teals. We have conquered our enemies.

One extraordinary thing Is the vast number of new plays we are being offered, and the si urcea from which they come. Only the other day Lady Gregory and I accepted a play hlch in mv opinion Is a masterpiece. I found that the author was a rural peatman In County Cork He had done one or two other plays for us, but we had not known anything about him. "County Cork produces all our real lata. We have five very strong and competent dramatists in that county, where a school has grown up, all the members of which resemble one another In their way ot looking at life frankly and sincerely, but with no Idealisation.

When the Abbey Theater started work a few years ago, there was no Irl.h play that had been produced since Bouclcault's time. "It ha. been a source of pusalement to me that Cork has proven so abundant in the drama. Why this Is not true of I'ublin I think may be explained by the fact that In the capital so many young ii have been In the habit of taking up with some polltcal propaganda or other In their formative age. and writing articles for the weekly Nationalist papers.

Thus they lose their Innocence of eye, end become propagandists Then, too. Dublin Is too near England, and too Imitative. "The outcome of the trip of the Irish players to this country two years sgo was very good. The Irish theater, like the Irish polltclan, has to go to Irish-America for Its seal of approval. Everybody can say, 'Walt until you go to Irish-America, then you II hear the truth about yourselves Well, we hare been there, and.

In aplte of certain little occasional tributes from certain quarters In the shape of brickbats and unkind words, we have survived, and have even made many friends "The arrest of our players In Philadelphia did us an immense In Dublin, because however unpopular the playwrights were at times, the players have always been popular. If only they had Imprisoned Miss Sarah Allgood, our leading woman, for a forntght. we should have doubled our audiences In Dublin The plays we receive In Dublin come from all part, of Ireland It may be a curious fact, hut atmoat Invariably the heat plays are written by National schoolmasters of course they are living close to the life of the people "You might think that a large percentage of these plays were comedies I am sorry to say we are getting hardly anything but tragedies, for It la comedy we want Theoretically I hold that in a repertory theater there should be three corned es to one tragedy "At the present moment all our young and thinking people are full of a passion for reality They want to show everything that has been kept hidden. They want to expose the sentimentality of years Owing to the absorption of Ireland In the National nuestion. we have no criticism and we have had no detached thought Too Much 8entlmsnt.il.

m. "Then, again, the virtues of Ireland te been a political vested Interest. The result Is that the young men have fallen In no way under the personal Influence of any of us They send us from remote country places plays Insisting upon unpopular tacts those hidden away by the sentimentality of generations. They Insist upon everything that is harsh even uion what Is ugly. Something of the same sort is taking place all over the world, because, owing to democracy that Is to t.ay, government by opinion all kinds of sentimental attitudes toward life haa arisen, and because, owing to the spread of education, the world is full of sentimental writers, novelists, and dramatists who have gained their popularity by sentimentalizing life.

"The world will have to go through a period of violent realism, of dragging Into the light what Is hidden, before It can return to a literature of beauty and peace." "Has tbe sex problem figured In the new Ir.sh dramas?" "In Ireland the sex question has hardly arisen. The problems that Interest Ireland are all those of public life. Here are some favorite subjects of the young dramaiiBta: A man entering the priesthood without a vocation, an the reasons for his entering It; the effect of second rate education on the people; the passing away of the old romantic polices; the effect of the money lenders to a Connaught village. "The drama of private life has hardly come to us Our nation is nof yet made. Patriotism Is therefore the hidden inspiration of our dramatists.

"As far the sex play. I haven't the slightest objection to it. provided the passion behind tt is the passion for reality. The play which explaina vice for the sake of popularity is equally nauseating with that which exploits domestic sentiment for popularity. Both are rot for the human brain and destroy all sense of true proportion In life.

I have very little sentiment for the propagandist filay of any kind, whether It Is written England or America and directed against the white slave trade, or In Ireland directed against the British Government. "A rreat artist has only one consideration, and that is reality. If he Is a poet. It will be the reality of Inner life. If he la a realistic dramatist or novelist It will be the reality of external life.

Whichever he chooses, he has every right of a man of science. The latter Is a. much honored among his fellows for exploring the life history of a beetle as for discovering the history of a star. We do not know which Is the more Important to the human race. Artists Must Be Free.

"It Is the history of the more Intense states of consciousness that a great artist expounds, and It Is necessary to his very existence as an artist that he should be free to make use of all the circumstances necessary for the expression of any permanent state of consciousness; and not only Is this necessary to the artist, but to society Itself. "If you deny expression to any profound or lasting state of consciousness, you make that state of consciousness morbid and exaggerated. The Greeks had no exaggerated morbidity of sex, because they were free to express all. Thev were the most healthy of all peoples. The map who Is sex-mad Is hateful to me, but he was created by the moralists.

People ssy the young must be protected: but have grown men and women rights? Mothers and fathers have no right to demand that the State do their work for them." Mr. Yeats Is shortly to publish a new book of lyrics called "Responsibility." It Is being printed on hand presses at Dun-drum, near Dublin, where his sister, a pupil ot William Mania lacs making, Mrs Belloc Lowndes' Story Of Famous Crime. (Frcn the Now York Times Review In her la-'l novel. "The Knd of Her Mrs Belloc-lowndes kept her readers in a pleasant tate of mystification until the llnej chapter. In "Thu Ixnlfrer (Houghton-Mifflin), there Is a reversal of this method.

Before the story Is half told the clew to Its mystery Is purposely disclosed, and the Interest of the reader Is thereafter Intensified by the accumulating horrors, which he Is himself hd to add to the strange sit-uation first suggested to his mind. And then there is the tantalizing feeling that this very obvious clew, furnished by the author, may be nothing more than a cltver "blind." the vv to a solution that Is quiie. unrelated to the particular fact or series of facts intended to be solved. All this, course, testifies to the skill of Mrs Helloc-Lownde8 as a witer of mystery stories. In this department of Action.

Indeed, she can be depended upon to produce work of a very excellent qualitywork that has Just thai touch of reality, that feeling of "atmosphero" that gives to a novel of this charade" genuine and permanent value. The Uslgei Is rirh In Just thli kind of excellence. The setting for the story Is admirably simple. A retired sorvlng man and his ife have Invested their savings in a small house In an unpieten-tious london neighborhood. For their Income, they are dependent on such lodgers as can be Induced to rent the four i-oomi that are set apart for the purpose.

They are estimable people, this Mr. and Mrs. Bunting simple in their tastes and ambi tions, temperate, honest, ana, through long practice, skilled In looking after the needs and comforts of persons occupying a higher social position than their own. Thus tlay have established quite an Ideal lodging house for peop.e desirous of quiet and respectable surroundings; but in spite of the excellence of what they have to ofler the buntings have not prospered. Such lodgers as chance brings to thm ore of an uncertain quality, financially and otherwise, so that when the story opens Mr and Mrs.

Bunting, with an empty house on their hands, are quite at the end of their resources, with very Utile in the way of pence or loan producing securities between them and actual starvation. Ami then there happens In, Jmit In the very nick of time, an eccentric swrt of gentleman, who Is abundantly supplied with money and for whom tin rooms offered by the Buntings have a peculiar attraction. Mr. Sleuth Is the singular name of this esgerlv welcomed person. He rents all four rooms of the Buntings at a rate fixed bv themselves and turns out to be an acquisition that would arouse the envy of the most prosperous of boarding house keepers.
