“There is a want of continuity. Repetitions occur, and sometimes when they were unintended. He has written a book to interest all who are interested in the modern world.” Simeon E. Baldwin.

White, C. V. Peace conference: poem. $1. Badger, R: G.
This poem is dedicated to the American delegates of the International peace conference, which met at the Hague, May 18, 1899. It sets forth the harm which war has done thruout history, and declares that the time for universal peace is here. It closes with the prayer,
“Lord God endow
Us with thy blessings now,
And plenteous peace the whole world o’er
Establish thou forevermore.”
White, Fred M. [Crimson blind.] $1.50. Fenno.
The strands of this story are marvelously twisted. A villain, a fiend in human shape, has plunged his family into dishonor to gain his ends, but by the aid of a clever doctor, whose future had also been involved in the general ruin, a young novelist who applies fiction methods to the case, and a girl cousin who feigns death in order to be free to solve the mystery, the whole is ferreted out, bit by bit. It is an ingenious plot with manifold complications.
