McDonald of Oregon, by Eva Emery Dye.

"With wealth of simplicity and direct
ness of thought, coupled with charming;
word pictures of the old Oregon of Chief
Factor John McLoughlln, this new novel
of Mrs. Eva Emery Dye, of Oregon City,
will have peculiar fascination for all
loyal Oregonlans and will also draw ap
preciative audiences from the country at
large. Far across the Paclflo. In storied
Japan, It will likewise meet with friends,
for the book Is a record of historical
fact, of the United States and Japan.
Like the shell found on the mountain '
height and which ever sang of the sea,
"McDonald of Oregon" sings the song of
the red race and the tune Is that which
tells of the probable ancestors of the
American Indians In the long ago, an
Asiatic people like the Japanese who
reached this continent by way of Behrlngr
Straits.
In opening this remarkable novel, na
turally t'ne first question that arises Is:
"In what does 'McDonald of Oregon" dif- :
fer from Mrs. Dye's previous literary
successes, 'McLoughlln and Old Oregon"
and "The Conquest'?" After mature re
flection. It would appear that the most
critical will unhesitatingly award first
place to "McDonald of Oregon," because
it has a surer grip on the imagination,
possesses broader vision as to pioneer
time, and the novelist fairly revels like
a gardener amid a collection of fragrant
June roses. In . sympathetic Interpreta
tion, crisp eentences, and graphic descrip
tion. Musty historical facts are skilfully
presented in the confection of conversa
tion. "McDonald of Oregon" is in the
very front rank with current American
historical novels, and Mrs. Dye can
honestly De congratulated on the success
she has achieved In this particular In
stance, and for the measure of Increased
recognition and reward which will be
here. In this thrilling tale, she has again
phed the llpht of romance on Oregon and
all Oregon says to Its favorite daughter:
"Well done."
In "McDonald of Oregon" we meet sev
eral characters, among them being Dr.
John McLoughlln and Captain Nathaniel
J. Wyeth and others whom we saw oc
cupying the center of Interest in "Mc
Loughlln and Old Oregon," but all that
they say and do is told with increasing
interest and the recital is never dull. The
hero of "McDonald" is Ranald McDonald,
son of Archibald McDonald and an Indian
maiden. Raven, the youngest daughter of
King Cumc-umly of the Chinooks, who on
her wedding day was christened the Prin
cess Sunday. Her father's personal
retinue numbered 600 copper-colored at
tendants, heralds and canoemen, but more
than 5000 acknowledged Cbinock sway
to The Dalles of the Columbia as far in
fact as tldo water rolled inland. Cum
cumly was a rich Indian. Ranald's
mother died at his birth. This no doubt
accounts for the fact that the novel is
filled with men of strong personality but
few women appear in It.
Mrs. Dye states that Ranald McDonald
for he really lived during his last years
desired her to write the story of his
eventful life. Accordingly her results are
based on personal statements and letters
of McDonald and other old Hudson Bay
Company's men; on the records of "Voy
ages of the Morrison and Himmaleh," a
copy of which can be found in the Boston
public library; government papers and de
positions now on file at Washington, D.
C; papers and documents in Canadian
archives at Ottawa and In the British
Columbia Historical Society at Victoria,
B. C.;. the Perry documents and reports
of American and European consuls and
ambassadors; various Oregon, Hawaiian
end Canadian newspapers in custody of
the Oregon Historical Society; and on
references to McDonald by William
Elliot Qrlffls, Hildreth the historian. Dr.
JJltobe of Japan and others.
McDonald's activity covers the closing
regime of the Hudson Bay Company in
Oregon and the entrance of American
dominion. He was born at Astoria, Or.,
February 11, 1S24, and died at Fort Col
vllle. Wash., August 24, 1894. "In planning
the novel, greater space is given to Ore
gon than Japan, and a strong Japan lead
Is not met with until the 67th page. Up
to that period, Randald's romantic boy
hood is described, the principal interest
being sustained by the short, snap-shot
conversation of Dr. McLoughlln. On page
64, Captain Wyeth says with relation to
Intending emigrants coming to Oregon
from New England: "Yes. A Boston
schoolmaster has organized an Oregon
colonization society and publishes a paper
he calls the 'Oregonian.' They did pro
pose to start the first of January last, but
so many delayed beyond the time set that
the scheme had to be given up for this
year. And some gentlemen around Balti
more, having heard of the mild climate,
are planning to open tobacco plantations
out here."
Japan leaps into the limelight in the
tenth chapter, when the action describes
the arrival of three shipwrecked Japanese
on the Oregon coast. Naturally, they are
taken by the bow-legged Chinook Indians
who found them to Dr. McLoughlln, and
they give their names as Ewa, Oto and
Kloko. Belonging to a company of mer
chants sailing with cotton cloth, pottery
and rice, in a ship bound from a southern
port of Japan to a northern one, crew and
passengers were wrecked by a typhoon.
The rudder was lost and unable to guide
the course, the survivors were swept to
ward the opposite Oregon coast, three
only surviving out of a company of 17.
Ultimately, the Japanese were able to
converse In the Chinook tongue, and
young Ranald listened entranced to their
stories of their native country. Then the
fugitives were returning home, but diffi
culty was experienced In this because of
the edict of the Japanese government that
Japanese who have left their country are
not allowed to return, Bave under penalty
of death. The Oregonian hosts mean
while busied themselves by speculating
as to the theory tha.t the first inhabitants
of America must have straggled across
from Asia, via Behring Straits. Similarity
of complexions and customs were noticed.

know that there is a chain of islands aloajt

This view as to the Asiatic extraction
of the American Indian is of course not
new. Scientific men have recently ven
tilated the subject, but rarely has it been
presented In, such an easily understood
form as in "McDonald of Oregon.
Ranald becomes tired of life in the
Columbia basin and always wishing to
risk -his fate in Japan, he succeeds in en
tering that land, where after sundry mis
haps he teaches English to quick wltted
Japanese students. Ranald's life in Japan
is the (term of the book. Short though
the Interval may be, it is of surpassing
Interest. With the roaming spirit in his
blood, Ranald again followed the sea,
adventure luring him to Bombay. Cal
cutta, Madras, to Javan ports and Aus
tralia. It is Interesting to note that when
Commodore Perry paid his memorable
visit to Japan and succeeded in opening
up that country to the world at large, the
negoclations were aided by the Japanese
students who had been English speaking
pupils of Ranald McDonald. One pupil,
Moryama Yenoske, became one of Japan's
most valued statesmen
Ranald never married. He once thought
of his beautiful cousin Christie, but she
always said: "No." She carried another.

at Oregon City." And a mile further, an
other cabin bore the legend: "F. W. Petty

his store in Oregon City." Such was the
beginning of Portland.
Indian fights, the half-savage splendor
of the McLoughlln regime at old Van
couver, the heroic march of emigrants
across the plains, humor, anecdote, heroic
character building, history placed in In
teligible. attractive fashion all this and
more should ensure the novel instantan

"McDonald" is Mrs. Dye's crown. It is
made in Oregon and should primarily be
in every household in the old Oregon
country.

A perfect Niagara of rapid incident and
baffling mystery, such as Charles Dick

Francisco that was, and a kind to make
you sit up o' nights whether you are will
ing or not.
A young man named Giles Dudley, of
the good-looking and strong-shouldered
variety, suddenly lands in San Francisco
to secure a job promised him in advance
by his cousin, Henry Wilson. The two
young meii strongly resemble each other,
so stronglyMhat it might require expert
knowledge to tell them apart. The Job?
Wilson promised all particulars on the
arrival of his relative, but the two
young men had Just met when Wilson

intents and purposes Dudley is Wilson,
because the people he meets Insist on It.
What follows is a perfect maze of hld
dea crime, so hidden that the San Fran
cisco police do not seem to know what
is going on. Stabbing and shooting af
frays are frequent among rival gangs, evi
dently bent on exterminating each other,
at the behest of California money kings !
who wish to capture the stock market.
A fight for the possession of a boy

tune Is extended to a tremendous climax,
and not until the 387th page is reached is
light vouchsafed to the perplexed reader,
who all the time is kept on pins and
needles wondering how on earth the mys

Giles Dudley and, Luella Knapp is of the
original, delicious kind. Life's under

town get a bold setting.
Ufp and letters of Robert Edward Lee. Sol
dier and Man, by Rev. J. William Jones,
D. I. Illustrated. $2. The Neale Pub
lishing Company, New York City.
The New York Herald once said that
Robert E. Lee came nearer the ideal of
the soldier and Christian General than
any man we can think of, and that he
was a greater soldier than Havelock, and
equally as devout a Christian. And
Horace Greeley gave it as his deliberate
opinion that the Rebellion had failed, but
that the Rebel Army of Virginia and Its
commander had not failed.
Dr. Jones was a Confederate soldier and
was one of General Lee's chaplains. Out
of a long study of the man and the con
ditions under which he worked and lived.
Dr. Jones has written a loving, but Just,
appreciation of the great Confederate
chief. The book is not In any sense a
biography. Rather is Lee's life displayed
as told by himself In his letters and by
his "fighting chaplain." Here are given
portraits of generations of Lees, many
of these being now published for the
first time. In the concrete, the book is
a notable addition to fast-growing Lee
literature. Thoughtful Americans, by. a
persual of this volume, will gain a bet
ter understanding of the human Lee than
they ever enjoyed before.

By mixing an omelet of hate and plac

many. What is "The Treasure of Heav
en?" Marie Corelll says It is love, and
on this one particular, all people that
on earth do dwell agree with her.
The peculiar objects of Marie Corelli's
contempt in her new novel are the United
StateB, Andrew Carnegie, book reviewers;
newspapers and accepted religion. Angus
Reay, one of her. characters, says- on
page 273: "Now, religion Is made a mere
party system a form of struggle as to
which sect can get the most money for
Its own purposes. Christ, the grand, pa
tient, long-suffering ideal of all goodness,
la go'ne from it," .
The hero of the novel Is DaVld Helms
ley, multimillionaire and misanthrope, and
on the subject of . his native country,
America, he says:
Sometimes I talk of Virginia as if I were
homesick and wanted to go back to it yet I
never do. I wouldn't go back to it for the
world not now. I'm not an American, so
I can say without any loss of the patriotic
sense that I loathe America. It is a coun

but it is not a country to be loved. It mlffht

greed, vice, eunnlng and general rascality.
There are plenty of decent folk in America,
of course, just aa there are decent folk
everywhere, but they are in the minority.
Holmeley, It may be explained, made
the most of hla milllona In Great Britain.
Like a lovesick but elderly Diogenes, he
goes out with hla lantern looking for the

Angus Reay, and ultimately marries him.
Before that event, Helmsley convenient

fortune, about $35,000,000. Here and there
are symptoms of the Corelll genius, and
flashes of real literary -merit. Yet, the
novel will in all probability be baptized
as "the best that ever came from Mario
Corelli's pen." and will go like hot cakes.

Jefferson, Cabell and the University of Vir
ginia, by John 8. Patton, librarian to the
University of Virginia. Illustrated. 2.
The Neale Publishing Company, New York
City.
The educational value of this typical
university of the Southland, and the im
mense power for good in its organisation
and management received 'from the gen
ius of the great Thomas Jefferson, get
a worthy setting in this comprehensive
volume of 380 pages. Mr. Patton has
breathed Into his presentation of fact the
very spirit which animated the founders
of this seat of learning, and possibly
never before has such a collection of in
cident after Incident relating to this sub
ject been gathered in permanent form.
The. book is not only a valuable addi
tion to the history of Virginia, but of the
United States during a tumultuous histori
cal period. Jefferson has been called the
best living exponent and defender of the
Ideas of the new man in Virginia In the
middle of the 18th century, and this vol
ume shows him in a new light. The val
orous part the university graduates took
in the Civil War is fittingly touched up-on-
