THE SUXDA.Y OREGOMAX, PORTLAND, DECEMBER 12, 1909.
Something; of Men I Have Known. By Adlsi
E. Stevenson. Illustrated. Price, 12.75.
A. C MeC'lurg & Co.. Chicago. 111.
Speaking in tho concrete, this volume
suggests the raconteur rather than the
politician or statesman, one wJio was once
Vice-President of the United States.
The stories Mr. Stevenson tells are of
the mirthful, enjoyable Quality, without
a grain of wounding sarcasm in them,
and on this account are a.11 the more
welcome. It is such a temptation in a.
nook of this sort, to "cet back" at one's
enemies. But Mr. Stevenson, it is noted,
stands on much higher ground. It will
be recalled that his political service ex
tends from 1ST, when he first entered
Consxess. until 1S97. Really, his wealth
of stories seems to be inexhaustible, and
1 tells just the kind necessary to enable
us to gain a more intimate view of the
historical aspect of our country, 'so far
as National lenders are concerned, during
Thei years referred to.
Take, for tnstanee. this view of Lucius
Q. Uraar, of Mississippi, one of the
shininsr lisrhts of Congress In the '70s. the
occasion for Illustration being when La
mar attended a banquet and bPan to eat
before the "'Rrace before meat" was
spoken:
At the plate or each guest a large to
mato was In readiness and. excellent In
itself, was, moreover, the earnest of better
things to come. Immediately upon being
seated. Mr. Ijtmar "fell to" and, wholly
oblivious of the surroundings, soon made
way with the one viand then in visible pres
ence.. Just ns the last vestige disappeared.
The president of the college arose and. with
:x solemnity eminently .befitting; ithe occa
sion, called icon Doctor Bullock to offer
thanks. Deeply chagrined. Mr. Lamar was
an attentive listener to the impressive in
vocation which Immediately followed. At its
conclusion, with troubled countenance, he
turned to Knott and said. "I am humiliated
at my conduct. I should have remembered
that Presbyterians always say grace before
meals, but I was very hungry and exhausted
and the tomato very tempting: I have really
disa-raced myself." To which Knott replied.
"You ought not to feel so. Mr. Justice: that
'blessing; of loctor Bullock's was brosd and
general; In large measure retrospective, as
welh as prospective. it reminds me of a
little Incident that occurred on the 'Roll
Inr Fork.' An old-time deacon down there
was noted for the lengthy blessing which
at hta table was the unfailing prelude to
every meal. ... Hi hired man. Bill Taylor,
an unconverted and Impatient youth, had
fallen Into the evil habit of commencing
his meal before the blessing thereon had
been fully Invoked. The frown and rebuke
of the good deacon were alike unavailing
in effecting the desired reform. Righteously
indlgnsnt thereat, the deacon, in a spirit
possibly not the most devout, at length
gave utterance to this petition. 'For what
we are. about to receive, and for what Wil
liam Taylqr has already received, accept
our thanks, O Lord:'"
Read this jgravely humorous word pic
ture of the brilliant Senator Blackburn.
HI A.CntUCK.
Thirty year and more ago. when first a
candidate for Congress. Mr. Blackburn at
tended a public execution In common par
lance "a hanging" In one of the counties
of his district. Being a gentleman of great
distinction, and a candidate for Congress, he
waa appropriately Invited by the sheriff to
occupy a seat with the prisoner and his
spiritual adviser upon the gallows. At the
near approach of the fatal hour, tho sheriff,
with watch In hand, amid the sea of up
turned faces, stated to the prisoner that he i
had yet five minutes to live, and It was hla
privilege, if he so desired, to address the
audience. The prisoner meekly replied that
he did not wish to speak. Whereupon Mr.
Blackburn, stepping promptly to the front
of the scafford. said: "As the gentleman
doea not wish to speak, if he will kindlv
yield me his time, i will take this occa
sion to remark that I am a candidate for
congress, regularly nominated bv the Dem
ocratic convention." etc. This incident be
ing told in the presence of Mr. Marshall,
the opposing candidate, the latter remarked
that he remembered It well, and could vouch
for Its truth. He then1 added that when I
Mr. Blackburn proposed to speak out the
prisoner's time, the latter turned to the
sheriff and inquired who that was. To
which the officer replied. "Captain Black
burn." At this the prisoner, who had amid
all the exciting scenes of his arrest and
trial, and even up to the present moment.
""n m" open eorrin beside him, dlsplaved
marvelous fortitude. suddenly exhibiting
deep emotion, piteously exclaimed, "please
hang me first, and let him speak after
wards:" A closing; story relating the ready wit
of J. Proctor Knott, once Governor of
Kentucky:
When In Joint canvass with his competitor
for the Governorship of his state. Mr. Knott,
having, by appointment, at one of the
county seats in "the Purchase." made the
opening speech, was seated .near by to listen
to that of the opposing candidate. The
latter, a gentleman having a high sense "of
propriety and dignity of bearing that would
have done no discredit to an assembly of
divines, had been exceedingly annoved by
Knotfa speech, which had in very" truth
kept the -audience In an uproar during Its
entire delivery. Beginning his reply, he said:
"Fellow-citizens. I will endeavor to Indi
cate to you the kind of a man. who. in mv
judgment, should he elected to the position
nf Governor of this grand old common
wealth. In the first place, that exalted po
sition should never be tilled by one. who. for

fellow-citizens, yeu should elect as your
(Kirtrnor a gentleman of lofty character, of

At this point. Knott, interrupting, said. In
manner and tone the exact counterpart of
the speaker. "Pardon me. Colonel Smith,
but T am too modest a man to llaten longer
to the beautiful and truthful description
you have just given of me."
Trtx and Over -t he-Moon, by Amelle Rives
Illustrated. Harper Bros., New Tork
City and the J. K. Gill Co.. Portland.
This distinguished novelist. ' who is
known in private life as Princess Trou
betskoy. lias won literary fame and dol
lars as the author of stories brimming
over with erotic love, stories which, alas!
must, by the trifling- nature of them live
only for the moment.
Critics who realized that Amelie Rives,
a native of Virginia and American as any
of us are, had talent worthy of better
Ideals, said to wait. In the years that
have come since "The Quick or the Dead"
and "According to St. John." a cleam of
pure Hold has been evolved. "Trtx and
Over-the-Moon." which, by' the charm of
Jta originality and naturalness, will be
accepted as a leading story of the year,
because Its hero Is a bad horse, a devil on
four legs. "Trix and Over-the-Moon' la
also distinguished hy the ability Its au
thor baa shown in her clever mastery of
Scotch and negro dialects. The present
reviewer, a native of Scotland, can cer
tify as to the correctness of Amelie Rives'
Scotch. Trlx Is Mrs. Sidney Nelson
Bruce, her maiden name "having; been
Beatrice Mansha.ll. and she is describes
as a born lover and judge of horses, but
a. headstrong young woman and, proud of
being self-willed. So much of a swelled
head had she that if the thought had pre
sented itseir to her, to be original, she
ought to bump her has J against a stone
wall, she would undoubtedly have done
so. Just to be odd, and have her own
way.
The locale of the novel is in one of the
Southern States and Trlx and' the man
she. afterward married fell in love with
each other during a Spring week at the
VTniversity or Virginia. He had fallen
tn love with her because she reminded
him so vlvitlly of the equestrian statue
of Jeanne d'Arc near the Iuvre. in
Paris, a statue of which he had for a
long time been enamored. She had
"alien In love with his love of her." with

"GREEN GINGER"
his splendid figure and hie growing repu
tation as a novelist. As a chief object
in life Trix placed horses, and she main
tained that there is a genius for horses,
just as there Is for music, poetry or
painting. Her husband only cared a very
little for horses. Ho could "stick on" a
horse, but of riding as a fine art he
cared less, and he cared least, of all 'for
his farm of Oldwood. which he had In
herited from his parents. v
On the contrary. Trix was a born farm
er and the entire management of the farm
devolved on her. There wasn't much !
sympathy between this oddly-assorted
couple. She openly mocked his efforts
to write stories and said that he had no
style of his own. but borrowed styles
from other authors.
The Bruces, at the opening of this story,
had one son. Tim,. 7 years old, and Tim
didn't like horses, but had a weakness
for mechanics. Two really important
personages of the Bruce household were
Mr. Bruce's old nurse. Mrs. Alison Stark.
an elderly Scotch person from Dumfries
shire. Scotland, and Mammy Henny. col
ored, Mrs. Bruce's old nurse. Mrs. Stark
and Mammy Henny were fighting con
tinually, as they were jealous of each
other's authority, and here much of the"
comedy of the story comes in. These two
opposite characters will surely , live, so
boldly drawn and true to life are they.
After all. the real character of the book
1s the roan horsei Over-the-Moon. and on
pages 8 and 29 he is described as a sin
gularly beautiful animal, but it seemed
as If he regarded life as a holiday, squar
ing Tils red nostrils anl looking for out
Into the wide air with an eye that quiv
ered with' brilliant majiee In its great
socket." The) first time Trlx saw this
roan colt she was told that he was a
vicious beast, one that would work her
harm. Self-willed, however, she bought
him for D00. with a consideration for the
first prize cup he won. "When she tried
to mount him he squealed like a stallion
and tried to throw ,her off. Against her
husband's wish, she trained Over-the-Moon
for his appearance at a forthcom
ing horse show.
Mrs. Stark, the Scotch nurse, thinks
that little Tim would lie all the better of
correction with a rod. and she argues
thus:
No dlscipleening whatever has he had.
pulr bairn. Aye rinnin' abool hither an'

that sae mony horse-gowana blaw f th"
fields hereaboats. Horses first and Chrees
tlana second. -Tis that auld be writ ower
the noose door.
Mammy' Henny objected 'to' Mrs. Stark
calling her a "black lady," and retorted
that Moses had a black wife. She based
her assumption of that fact from the
statement contained in Numbers, chapter
12 and verse 1: "And Miriam and Aaron
spake against moses because of the
"Ethiopian women whom he had married:
for he had married an Ethiopian woman."
Mrs. Stark or Nurse A lie. as she is
known in the household is described as
a woman of petulant temper; a tyrant in
her way. but willing to aacrlflce her life
if need be to save the family she loved,
the Bruces. from harm. She became
possessed of the idea that if young Mrs.
Bruce continued to ride Over-the-Moon,
she would be thrown and. killed, at the
approaching horse show. "Nurse Alie has
a curious power over animals and she
plans, deliberately, to win the devil
horse's friendship. To save her mistress,
she implores the- latter, with tears, to
give up Over-the-Moon. but here Mrs.
Bruce's obstinacy comes- into play and,
like a spoiled child, she says. "No."
It is then that the old nurss determines
on what may seem a terrible sacrifice,
and this scene Is described with emo
tional art. so true to life that it brings
the moisture to one's eyes at least if
the reader be a lover of animals.

land. Manifestly this is not a book for ex
tended review, and the present oppor
tunity is rather seized just to present
to the notice of the intelligent reader
of today an unusually vigorous pres
entation by the . President or the

United States of American lile and

tends to 2,19 pages, and consists of the
chief addresses made throughout the
country by Mr. Taft. In the period be

been commented upon by the American

any comment is needless at this time.

The Demagogue. By William Richard Here
ford. Henrv Holt & Co.. New York City
and The J. K. alii Co., Portland. v
Gifted with large vision and teaching
the doctrine that punishment follows
crime as surely as day sinks into night,
this is really a great novel depicting
American politics and newspaper life.
'The "Demagogue" dominates over dozens
of current novels, just as gold cheapens
dross. The tale is the work pf a new
writer, and - long may his courageous
colors wave.
The demagogue who is the hero of the
story is David Holman. editor and pro
prietor of the New York Epoch news
paper and also the owner of 31 other
newspapers In 22 American cities. His
fortune is estimated at $100,000,000 and the
story principally concerns his campaign
to win the nomination for the Presidency
of the United States. His portrait in part
may to some suggest that of "William
Randolph Hearst, and his newspaper, the
Kpoch, the New York American. T'.ie
Epoch espouses the cause of the "peepul"
and pure democracy, and some of the
headlines of its editorials are: "Pred
atory Plutocrafy." "The Plundered Peo
ple," "Rights of the Many," "Government
by the Favored Few," "Unequal Oppor
tunities." etc.
Mr. Holman's chief editorial writer is
Kernald. who bears a strange resem
blance to a certain Mr. Brisbane. Holman
buys the political support in a battle to
get votes of delegates in the approaching
National convention of "Boss" Jerry
McQuade. of New York, for $1,000,000.
Holman is a man with a past, and he
treated one Zaidee Gonzales, a SpanlsVi
Mexican young woman, with great cruel
ty, and sought to cast oft her and their
little boy. At the same time. Holman
is in love with "Miss Harriet Stowers. a
New York society girl.
Interest grows Intense when the author
describes the big political convention
scene In New York City, and so skilfully
are the elements grouped together that a
theater play is recalled. Holman's rival
for the nomination is Abner J. Heyward.
of Ohio, and there is mention on page 348
of a "Washington state delegation. A great
surprise awaits the reader in perusing an
account of the convention referred to.
Elsfe and the ArkanMw Bear, by Albert
Bigelow Paine. Illustrated. $1. Heniy
Altemus Co.. Philadelphia, Pa.
"The Arkansaw Bear" was . one of
the" greatest successes among children's
books of a decade and here's its suc
cessor. Orphan Elsie meets the fiddling
bear of which she has heard, .and the
couple have many amusing adventures
together in magic land. The story is
veryxwel! told, in prose and verse, for
young children, by Mr. Paine, and the
illustrations are the work of Frank
Ver Beck. A . pretty giftbook. Here
is a sample of Mr. Paine's verse?
Oh. a king and a queen In a castle' grand.
They sat on a. throne and they ruled the
land; ,
And Elsie and Horatio came wandering
along.
And Horatio played the nddlc. and BUie
sang a song.
Then the king began to wiggle and the
queen began to jiggle.
And the throne began to wriggle as they
capered up and down;
And the court was all a-danring and th
horses soon were . prancing.
Til they formed a great procession, and
they marched through London town.

erick A. Stokes Co., New- York City.
Sixteen amusing stories of English life,
with just the kind of ginger in them im
plied in the title of the book. In "Tales
of Mean Streets." "Cunning Murell" and
"The Hole in the Wall" Mr. Morrison
presented the lower, but realistic form or
street life in English cities. Now he is in
happier vein, and the change is refresh
ing. The Call of the Heart, by 1. N. Way. $1.50.

diary begins September 20 and finishes
Septembet 16. 1910, and at the end of
the book a complete word-a nd-phrase

of the book is neat and ingenious.

"Sufficient unto the day is the evi! thereof." Matthew VII, 34.
Some) of us never seem to learn
To tKe our troubles as they come,
- To meet each worry in Its turn
We looK. ahead and. borrow some.
Just when the rose is ruddiest
We grieve because it will not stay
Our hands upon the thorns are pressed
To make tomorrow of today.
Some people that is, you and I
Hush half the laughter on their lips,
i Send it a-scurry with a sight
Or stale the wine another sips.
By brooding on some fancied grief
That may await us on the way.
To his own gladness each plays thief
He maKes tomorrow of today.
'We trade the gold of one day's Joy
For dross of doubt and discontent
The fine gold we dull with alloy
Of baser metals, meanly blent.
And yet tomorrow never shows
A dawn so darh or noon so gray
, As drawn by one whose borrowed woe
Have made tomorrow of today.
'Tis best to thinK each day made
With all the goodness i. shall hold.
With all the sunshine and the shade.
And some small sorrow to enfold.
Then wafted from the Master's hand.
Where all of the tomorrows stay
But still we cannot understands
We maKe tomorrow of today.

HERR HARDEN SCENTS PLOT
Cicrman Editor Finds British In-
i
trigiic in Political Move.
BERLIN. Dec. 11. (Special.) Ilerr
Maximilian Harden, amiihilator of th
"inner round table of the Kaiser." has
e-onjurf? up another phantom of per
fidious British intrigue. The editor of
the Zukunft has discovered that "a
powerful syndicate of British interests"
has made stealthy plans for placing a
"candidate" of their own in the Ger
man Korean Seeretarj'fhlp. and Herr
Harden has ascertained who it is
Count John von Bernsdorff. the Ger
man Ambassador at Washington.
Count Bernsdorff is charged with
making ardent - pro-Anprlo Saxon
speeches in America at the behest of
hia "British backers." Besides his
British birtli and British mother.
Count Bernsdorft's long residence In
Knsrlanrt and Ksrypt is cited by Herr
Harden as evidence of his perfidious
Anglo Saxon leanings.
