A woman at the Newport Ca sino tho other day wore a Paul Polret gown only Just brought over. In which 'mustard, lemon yellow, peach pink and coral were blended with a daring that was almost sublime. Thia favor for colors Is, of course, due to the new Queen's penchant for bright tints.

John Newtohn i LTWT2 Fifteen hourand Allies by Stage, by Car rie Adell Strahorn. 4. IUuKtratad. G. P. Putnam's Sons. Now York City. Possessing 350 first-class Illustra tions of places and people, from draw ings by Charles M. Russell and from photographs, this volume of 673 pages Is an interesting record of the Ameri can West of about 30 years ago, when railroads were not bo plentiful as they are now, conditions pictured by Mrs. Strahorn, who at that time accom panied her husband on a business trip that extended from the Missouri to the Pacific, and from Alaska to Mexico. Oregon is depicted. The style of writ ing is graphic, intimate, gossipy and easy, 'and the book will be prized for Its skilfully presented chapters of pio neer conditions of which the younger generation only knows about through tales of older'.folks. The book will also have value as a souvenir, but one of the adverse criticisms that will doubt less be heard will come from sections where the author has been unhappy in her estimates and descriptions. The book 'a too expensive for popular use, the high price charged baring no doubt been caused by tho wealth of the really excellent illustrations. Mrs. -Strahorn says that the circum stances which led to the book, date back to 1877, when her husband, Robert E. Strahorn, wrote and 'published a book on the resources, climatic condi tions and scenic attractions of what was then Wyoming Territory. Jay Gould, then vitally interested In the Union Pacific Railroad Company. wii its rails running from Omaha to Og den and Bait Lake City, saw the book, liked It, and contracted with Mr. Stra horn to create a literary bureau and advertising department for the rail road mentioned, and to write a similar book on all Western states and terri tories. Why? To get settlers out there, and Incidentally swell railroad receipts. Mr. Gould's offer came one week after Mr. and Mrs. Strahorn were married, and at first bride and groom were Inclined to refuse such an offer which meant hardship and sometimes peril from bad Indians, In sections far removed from civilization and the rule of a well-organized police force. But Mr. and Mrs. Strahorn took the plunge, and this book is the result. The preface la dated from Spokane, Wash. To Oregonlans, the most Interesting chapters will be those on: To Mon tana In 1878 through the Bannock War lines; Butte and Virginia City; Colonel Sanders and the Vigilantes; To tbe Pa cific via Wood River and Boise: Boise to Walla Walla, via Baker City and Pendleton; Spokane Falls, Medical Lake and Lake Coeur d'Alene; Down the Columbia with its many portages; Portland and Puget Sound; Again to h. toifin with Senator and Mrs. Cald well; Holding up the overland train for dnncA. at Ontario. Or.; Britisn t-oium bia, and BOO miles of canoeing; from Boston to the Custer battlefield and Hawaii, and the passing of the Wil derness. It Is not possible at this time to yield to-the temptation to (Juote liber ally from this book, because of pres sure on space. There are so many .n.i.eiTio. Ktnripa and nuaint happen- i roenrdnri. Ciirlouslv enough, "it was a cold December day" when Mrs. Strahorn'a party sailed down the Columbia and it Is noted that "the whole country from Pendleton, Or. to ITmatilla, and down the Columbia River, was dotted with picturesque Indian camps of the TTmatillas and imany roving tribes. When we ar rived at the Dalies, li wm '6 furiously with a strong- wind blowing; It seemed as If we had beea floated backwards into the land of blizzards Instead of approaching the soft air of the Pacific." On page 338, we are shown a picture of falls that are spelled "La Tourelle." Aa to hotel accommodation in Port land, Mra. Strahorn writes: "The St. Charles was a pretty fine place in the '80s and we folded our weather beaten, stage-worn selves away there In dreams of luxury not enjoyed for many a day. The luxury, however, was all In the rooms, for the table was not far from detestable and we had , to search elsewhere for viands palatable." Mrs. Strahorn also says that In this hotel, she rang the -bell In her room for a waiter, and that It was nearly an hour before "a great, fat, 250-pound darky came shuffling, flapperty-flop, down the hall to our number and knocked." His eyeballs bulged and "he wiped the moisture from his brow with his much-soiled sleeve," Baying that If Mra Strahorn had been in the place six months, she would have been Just as lazy as any body! Mra Strahorn proceeds: "The Impertinence waa Inexcusable but slow ness of movement and thought waa In reality a strong characteristic of that semi-tropical climate, and he was but a fair sample of his co-laborers." Portland's business blocks, "although not of huge dimensions, were models of architectural beauty; in fact. It was the best-built town of 20,000 people anywhere west of the Mississippi River.

'a novel written by a Portland author whose address Is 431 Salmon street. The story may be de scribed as an unusually able one, the texture of which is humor, love and tobacco. Sometimes the easy, natural style of character drawing bits about country life and particularly the fashioning of Miss Lucy and Miss Nancy James, re mind the reader of the Iterary art of Mra Mary E. Wilkins Freeman, author of "A New England Nun" and other successes. "Gran'dad" Doggett Is a chuckling, rugged philosopher of the type that Dickens loved to create. It is a real pleasure to read such a story of good Influence and good fellowship, a story of the Southland without a feud in It, but plenty of tobacco. Most of the action is carried along In the form of conversation In dialect indeed there Is conversation enough and to apare. . The novel opens at the tobacco farm of Ephraim Doggett, where Galvin Brock, widower, and Na than Lindsay, -helped by their host, carry on most of the talk. Here la one of Mr. Doggett's dialect speeches: "Dock and me went out this mornin and scraped up about three tablespoon fulls o' frost offffen that plank a-layin' right thar by the fence yes sir, three tablesDoonfuls. . nigh about. n;i wo don't watch, some o' our terbaccer'a a goin' to get ketched a standin'.

The aX- ter Is described as "a thick-set man with the hog-like neck and the enor mous mole, that stood, sentinel-like, beside the left nostril of his rose colored aquiline nose." Mrs. Doggett gives a hint that Lindsay Is doing the right thing In courting Miss Lucy James, and when Brock and Lindsay depart Mr. Doggett remarks to his wife: . Ann.

"You Just go git me some stovewood if ou want any supper to night." Now Miss Lucy James is oO years old, but she is as Interesting and ro mantic as if she were 17.

"The Tobacco Tiller" suggests a tall, lank Southerner, his back bent with hard work In the fields and his fingers stained with tobacco, and the setting of a blood feud. But nothing of the kind happens. The picture principally reflects middle-aged lovers, pleasant sentiment and delicate humor. Lind say's sore- heel and Lucy Jane's un shod condition and the fact that four of her front teeth are held together by thread guaranteed to last one week . It all helps to develop a most charm ing comedy, lighting up quaint rural life. A worthy American classic in 1911 fiction. The American Year Book for 1910, edited by Dr. S. N. D.

In thia Instance B. & A. means the Buskhorn & Antioch Railroad, with headquarters at Antioch, somewhere near Wiscon sin. ' "The Manager of the B. & A.' Is one of the early novels of the late Vaughan Kester, who recently made a National success as the author of that sterling story, "The Prodigal Judge." The latter has an unusually large sale and has been accepted as one of the big novels of the past decade. But poor Vaughan Kester gone, and we shall read no more new stories written ..by nlm. He died the other day, to the regret of all who watched his talent' as a really talented novelist. - Dan Oakley, son of a convicted mur derer serving a life sentence in the Massachusetts State Prison, is the hero of the story, and a very satisfying one he Is. He is certainly worth knowing and Is every Inch, a man. Dan is the head manager of the B. & A. Railroad, a road that was practically bankrupt before General Cornish persuaded Oak- . ley 'to take charge of it. On page six the statement is made in a newspaper clipping senty to Dan that his father, Roger Oakley, because of heroism shown ,ln rescuing fellow prisoners from a fire at the prison, had been par doned. Dan had not seen his father for about 20 years, but exhibits tha manhood in him by writing to his father, offering him a home at An tioch. Roger Oakley shows that he is deeply religious and that he possesses an uncontrollable temper. By trade he Is a cabinet-maker, and he gets a job in the B. & A. Railroad shops. Dan's mother is dead. Miss Constance Emory Is. the belle of Antioch. and two of her suitors are Dan Oakley and Mr. Ryder, the latter being the editor and proprietor of the Antioch Herald newspaper.

Ej-en Miss Emory re coils from Dan and at first shows her self as a vain, emotional girL Ryder Helps to create a strike at the B. & A. shops, and there is plenty of trouble. Now here is where the late novelist made one mistake: He causes Roger Oakley to kill Ryder with a chance blow. No need for a second murder to act as a blot on the otherwise excellent tale. Roger Oakley escapes and he and his son . perform heroic' service to save life In a forest fire. The Mountain That Was Cod. by John H. Williams. Illustrated In color.
