Punch announces the Immediate pub
lication of a three-part serial by Frank
II. Stockton. It Is entitled "Tho Glided,
Idol and tho Conch Shell," and deals
with American life on tho side of poli
tics. A study of modern social conditions
as they nffect tho Jews in tho United
States is presented by Miss Emma
Wolf In her novel, "Heirs of Yester
day," published by A. C. McClurg &
Co., of Chicago.
A new edition of Charles Klngsley's

American authors, It seems, arc help
lessly exposed to tho depredations of
Russian publishers. An illustration of
the pillage which constantly goes ou Is
scon in the fact that Henjaililn Ido
Wheeler's "Llfo of Alexander tho
Great" Is now being reprinted In tho
Neva, a Russian magazine published In
St. Petersburg. Tho biography first ap
peared In the Century magazine, and
then was published as a book with
drawings by Andro Castalgne, which
are.nlso being pirated by tho Russian
magazine.
A picturesque event happened recent
ly at Garden River, a part of tho OJIb
way Reservation, nine miles from tho
Canadian "Soo," as Sault Stc. Mario Is
familiarly called, when Miss Allco Long,
fellow, and her sister, Mrs. J..G. Thorp,
of Cambridge, and other descendants
of the poet Longfellow, wcro formally
adopted Into the OJIbway nation. Tho
Longfellows. with others, formed a
party who have been camping in Geor
gian Ray, about thirty miles from Gar
den River, the latter place being the
ancient residence of tho OJIbway
Kings, who ruled there a hundred years
ago, when this nation was supremo
among the aborigines, the last King of
tho Ojlbwnys being tho father of tho
Chief Bukwuk Jlninl, who taught
Longfellow tho legends on which his
Hiawatha was founded. This country
Is supposed to have been tho scene of
most of Hiawatha's explolta, and hero
the OJIbwoys, who aro entertaining tho
Longfellow party, presented a drama-
'tlzed version of Hiawatha for their
guests, which was given out of doors
with much realistic effect Tho morn
ing after tho adoption of tho Longfel
lows bito tho OJIbwny Nation, Miss
Longfellow presented their Hosts witn
a handsomo portrait of her father,
framed In birch bark, wlilch will hang
In their Council House at Gnrden River.
Tho wholo story Is not only one of
much Interest, but should form a strik
ing eplsodo In all future lives of tho
poet
Sign.
