DAVID AND ANNA MATS ON By 2IXrK. -AJbifrnil Scott Dimityay, Editor "New Northwest," Portland, Oregon, WITH UEADTIFHL ILLUSTRATIONS, AND ELEGANTLY BOD"JP A new epic, from a vigorous and skillful pen, on a subject which occupies a large place In the soctal discussions of the day. The subject Is taken Irom Mr. Whlttler's short narrative of "Da vid Mataon," with which the reader is probably familiar. David Matson, a Merrlmac sailor, was captured by tbe Algerines (during one of his voyages) and sold Into slavery. After many years he obtained release aod was on hi way to his old employer, who Informed htm that his wire, believing mm ueati, nau remarnea, anu, stunned by his trouble, he surrendered all claim as husband and father to the man who had stepped Into his place, and departed. Mrs. Daniway has Ion (Ml a theme In this story with which her heart beats In wannest sympathy, and her llnea flow on In the smeota aadesee In dlcatlva of the fullest accord. She lactam tbe gentle, tender, trustful Anna and the wHy, coy elous I'elaUah In vivid .colors; ami how years of poverty and lorarlBg, and Ihe ertex of tbe hub gry l-oy,eow! jel!ed poor Anna to yield to I'elaUah' Importunity, "Rise, rejoice. My poor, unmated dove," said be, " And look heneefcrth for love to me." A little further on be says : " Become my wife and you shall be Made happy through prosperity," While, if she persists In declining bis advances, wolf-like, he threatens to abandon her to star vation and cold. And this I'elatlah was a "deacon," " In exhortations deep and loud." "The wanderings of David, his captivity, release, hapless Interview with PeutUah, discovery oi Anna's second wifehood, and his sad going back to Algeria, are all told so pathetically that our feelings me deeply enlisted. No one, with any true sentiment, can read tbe poem without be ing thoroughly stirred. The illustrations are in admirable keeping with the passages they are designed to portray, and a fine engraving of the spirit. Are and passion of the poem should give It an extensive reading, aside from the Interest wbfeh the literary reputation of the author must awaken In IU As a specimen or book-making tbe volume Is certainty beautiful, and would adorn any center-table.
