The author Is n man who, because of hli political and personal I Importance, was able to see much more ! of tho actual lighting than tho general run of correspondents. Mrs. II. M. Lothrop (Mnrgarct Sid ney) Is engaged In completing tho tenth of the famous Pepper books, "IJen Pepper," which the taturop, Leo end Shepard Company have In press for publication upon their Lothrop list during the present Bcason. The popu lar demand for these remarkable books Is continually Increasing; the sales dur ing the past season surpassing all pre vious records. Miss Hraddcn Is bo sure of readers that a story by her Is always welcomed by the book sellers. She has one com ing out Bhortly called "The Rose of Life," a modem romance story of good and bnd Roclcty, with a heroine as In nocent and charming as Goethe's Gretchcn. Tho book has glimpses of the trivial life of the London season and there is more than a glimpse of the literary llfo 1n the person of a poet whose fate Is the tragedy of the atory, which for tho rest enda happily. Mr. Alec Tweedle, whoso excellent book on Mexico Is well known, wrltea In the London Mngar.lno on General Porforlo Diaz, whom sho describes as a man who mndc a nation, and now publishers are trying .o Induce her to write a book on the general's life. As no ono has yet written an account of tho life of that remarkable man, and as Mrs. Tweedle wbh twice the guest of the general and his wife In Mexico, she may bo prevullcd upon to write such a book. In view of tho success of II. Rider Haggard's latest book, "The Brethren," and others that have gone before, such as "She," "Allen Quartermaln," etc., It Is amusing to hear that the llrst threo books written by this gifted romnnclst brought him In the enormous sum of ten pounds sterling. As can readily be understood, tho young author was a llttlo discouraged by this showing, but resolved on ono more shot, and pro duced "King Solomon's Mines," which mado him famous at once. . The latest novelty Is a magazine called tho Novel Magazine, published by Arthur Pearson. It Is a novel because It Is a book of Action only. It Is a novelty because It la the only Urltlsh magazlnn devoted to Action alone: Rut It Is not the first time such a thing has been tried. Borne years ago a mngazlno of this Kort was brought out, but It did not succeed until miscellaneous articles were blended with tho stories, so It will bo Interesting to see If Mr. Pearson enn make his fiction magazine pay. Ily the terms of tho will of General Lew Wallace nil of this author's prop erty, both real and personal, Is left to his -wife, without condition. Tho will Is very short, containing only four sen tences. General Wallace loft n con siderable estate, and Mrs. Wallace will have not only the revenun from this, nut she will nlso, In future, bo entitled to tho royalties from tho sale of Ills books, which amount to a good deal lu tho courso of the year. Indeed, tho Harpers report that now, over 20 yennt after publication, the demand for "Hon Ilur" Is as great as ever. PLAN NEW OVERLAND ROUTE. Canadlauato Ilulld h I.lnc H.riOOMllea to the Count.
