how often the title had been used before, andthe titles similar to it which had been copy-
righted. It is worth reprinting as an illustra-

Mr. Robert luinn tells in "The ShamelessDiary of an Explorer" (the Outing PublishingCompany) the story of an expedition through
Alaska undertaken with the aim of reaching thetop of Mount McKinley. "Ihold," he says atthe outset, "that it is unfair to nature and theblessed weaknesses which make us human todivert by one hair's breadth in any record ofthe trail from facts as you saw them, emotionsas you felt them at their time. To distort orhide, in deference to any custom or so-callede.-nes of pride or honor, simply is to lie." Inpur-suance of these convictions he has set down infrank terms boom of the most unpleasant ex-periences attending exploration. Dirt, decay,
hung* sickness, selfishness, bad temper, shirk-Ing, quarrelling—so it goes, day by day.
"Though the days are all too alike, the dazing
tension of travel never relaxes; herding horses(.no by one over miles of muck; boiling beans,
mixing bread, burning callous fingers on the hotcollapsing reflector: never an hour to a?st to
dry off from the tortures of rheumatism, mendtattered boots and clothes. forg«t the roar oficy water about your waist, the crazing cloudof "Bkeets." The "book Is a long record of mis-eries. Hero Is another example:

The book on "The Court of the TuHories.1882-187O," by "L*Petit Homme Rouge," whichwas reviewed by our Paris correspondent sometime ago. and shown to be a ivrk of singularlyamusing gossip, turns out to have been writtenby Mr. Ernest A. Vteetelly. it appears thai 1-
-.addition to his own recollections he drew uponfamily papers and Information in the possessionof his wife's kinsfolk, who were connected withthe imperial court. "The Athenaeum" statesthat he is now preparing a somewhat similarvolume on the Presidents of the Republic, their
establishments at the ElyS«e, the foreign policy
of France, and Parisian society generally fromIN7I onward.
Mr. Francis Gribble has written a book on."Madame de sta-:land Her Lovers." He has apiquant subject, for hia heroin- was undoubtedlywhat he calls htr, "a won;.m with a passionateheart," and she let herself cro in h.-r "affairs"with en ease in curious contrast to her intel-lectual str«npfh. We hope that Mr. Gribble doesjustice to the little bou] of the man on whomshe wasted too much of her best feeling, Ben-jamin Constant.
Current Talk of Things Present
and to Come.A new book by Elie Metchnikoff figures In the
list of the Putnams. It is a kind of companionvolume to "The Nature of Man." Its title is"Nature, Science and Optimism: A Study Inthe i^fe of Man." The author's peney.il ideaswillbo illustrated by reference to fatuous men,

cation. All local taxes in England, he remindsthe reader, are borne by the tenant, and areassessed on the rental value of the land andbuildings combined; not. as In N. w York, onthe capita] or silling value. As a. rule also.the owner of ihe land is not the tenant— ho
is not oven the owner of the buildings. He
has leased the land for a term of years, andthe U ssee has put up the buildings—buildings\u25a0which, when the l^ase runs out. will fall to thelandlord, who has the right to demand thatthey be ke;,t in goad repair.

The One Hundred Pieces, Sacred andProfane, He Proposed to Write.
From The Dundee Advertiser.Despite the extensive literature that has
grown up around the name of Milton, there Isone topic that has hitherto been neglected, but
which might well attract commentators, since so
patriotic a Scot as Professor Massoo has at-tained the rank •>:" being chief authority uponMilton. It was maintained lons ago by Wartonthat Milton early had the Idea of dramatizing
• ptural subjects. The proof of this is af-forded by a manuscript Inhis own writing,nowpreserved at Trinity College, Cambridge. HereMilton had drawn up a list of sacred dramasthat he contemplated writing,which extend fromthe period of the flood till the ascension ofChrist, making sixty-two di mas, some of themdefinitely outlined. But Milton did not Intendto com \u25a0 himself to sacred subjects. The listis carried on tillit makes up one hundred topics.from sixty-three to ninety-five being IncidentsIn British history during the time of the Anglo-Saxons and the Normans, and from ninety-sixto no hundred being described as "ScotchStories, or rather British of the North Parts."These Scottish subjects an worthy of notice.Evidently Milton's study of Shakespeare'sworks had taught him to look for the: InHollnshed's Chronicles, and In most of the en-tries h»» has outlined the form which Om pro-jected drama would take and baa written thereferences from the Chronicles. Of the Scriptu-ral subjects Milton only completed the "SamsonAgcnistes," which remains one of the greatitems in English literature. It Is worthy ofnotice that the "Bap tistea." of which Miltonforeshadowed In his manuscript an elaborateplan, ha:' recently been credibly shown to be atranslation by Milton of the poem bearing thistitle written in Latin by George Buchanan. Tho"British Tragedies" which Milton had In view,and for which lie quotes references to Hollnshed,Stow and Speed, were never begun by him. or,at least have not yet been identified. Milton'splans for the "Scotch Stories." as formulated inhis manuscript, are as follows:XCVI. Althirco slain by Xatholochus. who**
daughters ho had ravish*; and this Haiku i>-chus, usurping thereon the kingdom, peeks to
\y the kindred of Althirco. who rape binami conspire against him. lie sends a witch toknow the event. The witch tells tho masamigieithat lie is the man that shall slay Nntholochus.He detests it: but In is. rule h>m \u25a0 chang.«3his iriin.!. and performs it. Scotch Cbron. Eng-lish, p. GS-63.

Intimately associated with Meigle. Krom the planIt appears Milton intended to begin his story
with Act IVof Shakespeare's traced and to bmUhMalcolm a witness of the murder of MaodufT's fam-ily,instead of merely earing the sad tale In Kng-
liml from Ross, as Shakespeare baa arranged the
story. Whether Milton could ever have dealt ade-quately with the Scottish subjects may be doubted.but at least he could appreciate their value astragedies fitted "to purge tba soul with feat anatirror."
MILTON AS DBAMATIST.
The methods of the plagiarist are always
amusing to contemplate. A pretty exhibition ofthem is given in the London "Globe." That
Journal has long mads a practice of printingwhat it calls "Turnovers," articles on miscel-laneous subjects which just turn a column. Theeditor was surprised the other day to find thata passage in one of these little essays, a study
of -Maiden Aunts," had been neatly "lifted" by
a certain novelist and embodied In one of thechapters of his new story. This was bad enough,
but it was later discovered that the Ingenious
writer had also borrowed for the same purposefrom another "Turnover," this time chooslnar on-bearing the suggestive title, "In Praise of Pre-
varication." The "deadly parallel" Is brought
In to make the thin? clear. Surely this novelist
has hit upon the simplest of all labor saving
devices. Emulation of him ought to make novelwriting easier than ever, though that hadseemed scarcely possible.

It Is matter for rejoicing that with everysummer camping out Is becoming more andmore popular in this country. For the tin Idenizen of the city there could be no wiserescape to health and pure happiness than in this
return to nature and to youth. Tho Ideal fash-lon of camping is described by Mr. Hanks withexcellent common sense ...careful detail.His Instructions are Intended, of com forthose to whom camping out means angling andEhootlng, as well unconventional life underthe greenwood tree; for the \u25a0.. undercanvas who does not care for sport the chap-ters on the establishment cnl care of a camp,on supplies, and on camp cooking, willbe equal-lyuseful That, there are many peopiu.in thesedays who k<j out Into the woods merely to

Under pine and bin i..in places here furn or feathered game can-not 1* found and where fish are either scarce orproblematical, glimmer the white tents of suchcampers. Their fun may not be glorious withthe glory that attends rod and gun. but it iswholesomr
—more power to their camp fire!
Th& fastidious scoffer of an Idle day need notImagine that camping out la an amusement thatIs necessarily uncomfortable] The list of things
to be taken out group smaller each year, Mr.Hanks assures us. with the practised lover ofthe wilderness. "Each year you will take morechances that you will not need many of thethings which you once thought you could riotget along without. For this reason a man willnever accept advice about his kit or admit thatanother man's kit is better than the one he haspacked for himself.*" We agree with him In
his recommendation to take a camp stove. Any
woodsman worth his Bait can do thoroughly
good cooking on a camp fire think of the friedtrout and bacon, the baked potatoes and thelight flapjacks of Experience:— but there comedays when, as one author truly says. it is nofun cooking in the rain. As for cooking at
the camp lire his directions are plain and In-
genious, even to the baking of bread wlion you
have nothing to bake It In. "Wind the dough."
be says, "around a hardwood stick, drive the
stick into the ground close to the lire, and turnit as the bread bakes." This can be done, but
th« unaccustomed camper must remember thatit takes some deftness not to lose the dough Inthe fire. It certainly stirs an appetite In theeit, weary of an unvarying summer menu, to
read of these bints, "Ifyou are on a day's huntand have bagged a bird, or have caught a few
fish and are Just wet. tired and hungry enough
to want a square meal, get two fiat stones andbuild a fire over them. After they have become

s'onrs' put your bird or fish on one stone and
the other stone on top. and then rake the hot
embers over them After you have had your
luncheon you will be ready to try conclusionswitii ;t bear.*'
The advice to <•>\u25a0<\u25a0 who finds him.' elf lost In
tl.e woods is eminently .sfnsible, beginning with
the injunction that the lost one should not also
lose his head:Sit down and think Itover quietly. The fir thing
to do is to recall the direction you took when you

and better conditions for the employes. DrHowe fortifies his statements by a formidablearray of figures showing the capital expendituresand the returns of a large number of Britishmunicipalities, and by a more detailed account ofGlasgow, which is undoubtedly the show cityfor the advocates of municipal ownership^
The two arguments which Americans are wont10 brinj; against the system Dr. Howe dis-misses with slight attention. Americans com-plain, i,.- says, of the British services as inferiorto their own. as lacking enterprise and initia-live; but then they make the same complaintof the British tailor or the British hotel. Theother argument brought against municipal own-ership—that it narrows the field for individualenterprise. Dr. Howe treats with even morescorn. This argument merely means, accordingto him, that the community ought to allow ahandful of men to grow immensely wealthy onthe profits of these undertakings, Instead of thebenefits being equitably shared among all thecitizens.It is unfortunate that Dr. Howe, before he
began the writing of his book, did not consultsome good authority on British local govern-ment. Of London ho frankly confesses that hedoes not pretend t<< know how it is governed;and his Ignorance extends to other « [ties, espe-cially where ho makes assertions concerning thehistory of British Institutions. He rightly datesthe beginning of modern municipal governmentto the municipal reform act of IS.'!."*; but hisaccount of the decay of local government in thecenturies preceding this act. plight as it is, isfull of errors. The quo warranto proceedingsof Charles IIwere but an Incident in the sub-ordination of the councils as municipal bodiesto the election of memben> to Parliament. Norwere member* of Parliament uniformly electedby the freemen of tho boroughs. In43 out ofthe 203 old boroughs of England and Wales,the election of members was by the council,not by the freemen— and the council was Inmost cases self-elective Insixty-two boroughsthe freemen elected; while, in the remainingninety-Height boroughs, the election was in thehands of inhabitants, taxpayers, or holders ofthe primitive trargage lan
Even In regard to the constitution and powersof the modern boroughs Dr. Howe makes nnsny
mistakes. Nowhere does he distinguish betweenthe county boroughs, which are independ< rt ofthe county councils; the municipal boroughswhich share their authority as regar la high-ways, and some other matters with the countycouncils, the urban districts, an '. the ruralparishes. In regard to the parishes, he con-fuses the old name with a church control thaihas now whollypassed away; and lie loses s!sbtof the fact, so strongly brought out by Mi nrAMrs. Sidney Webb, that the old \»:stry meetingwas really the counterpart of the much vaunteddemocratic town meeting of New England.These are but a few Instances of the ignorance
which Dr. Howe displays of the constitutionand history of English local institutions. Asregards what has come under his own eyes intheir modern working, he has shown himself aquick and accurate observer; but while hiserrors may not vitiate his arguments In favor <<fmunicipal democracy and a taxation of groundvalues, they do considerably lessen the con-fidence of the reader In othor of his statementsthat are not so easily tested.
