[Boston Herald.] How the old nags turn up at the horse shows is again illustrated by the renewed triumph of Mr. Prescott Lawrence's ven erable black beauty, Fashion, in the stal lion class. Who doesn't know Fashion, now 24 years old, and imported about the time of the first horse show ever held in this country? Fashion's picture has fur nished the model for about all the fancy horse pictures from that day to this. Nevertheless, the reports say that Fash ion showed up again this time with all his old style, and pranced over the tan bark as of yore, wearing a collar of prize medals, game to the last, although he has to be nursed now on soft food, as his teeth are gone and oats and hay are too much for him. They say this was Fash ion's positively last appearance in any ring. However, perhaps it would be bet ter to wait and see. A Fair Exception.

Mr. F. Marion Crawford has turned to the scene of some of his greatest successes for the plot in his new novel, "Cecelia; a Story of Modern Rome," which the Macmillan company will publish this month. "l.ove Songs and Other Poems," by Owen Innsly, is one of the latest offerings of the Grafton Press of New York. The volume is divided into three parts: (j) Love poems and sonnets; (2) miscellan erus; (3) translations from the Spanish of G;ustavo Becquer. It is neatly bound and will well repay the student of thoughtful, earnest, artistic verse. "The Garden of Lies," by Justus Miles Fornlan. is the striking title of a romantic story of love and adventure in modern Paris. A beautiful American girl is the hetroine. There is a medley of plot, in trigue, jealousy and idyllic love, and some clash of swords. It is a striking and ori - inal story, exciting, engaging and well worth while. (The Frederick A. Stokes Co., New York. $S.5o.) "Our Benevolent Feudalism" is the ti tle of W. J. Ghent's.book, to be published by the Macmillan company. The work is an elaboration of an article, "The Next Step; a Benevolent Feudalism," which ap peared in the New York Independent, April j, 19o03.

The Smart Set for December opens with "Winning Him Back," by Anita Vivanti Chartres, in which the author has achieved that most difficult of literary tasks, a story in which true humor is sustained from the first page to the last, without any interval of dullness. The plot is as simple as it is ingenious and distinctive, while the characters are sketched with consummate skill, so that their every word and action are convincingly human. The rare merit of this story deserves highest praise. "The Explorer," by Mary Tracy Earle, which follows the novelette, is a complete contrast to it in the theme and treatment. but of equal excellence for the skill with which a child's ingenious viewpoint is subtly interpreted. The Viscount de Santo-Thyrso con tributes an essay, "American Women and American Men," in which this former Portuguese minister to the United States shows true insight and much wit in his characterization of Americans. Edgar Saltus writes with even more than his ac customed brilliancy, under the title, "Claret and Cream." There are just So Items in the total con tents, and this does not include the cap ital jests and epigrams scattered through the pages. As a whole, this issue of the magazine is the best number of the Smart Set yet published-no higher praise could be given. In the Days of the Revolution. "On Guard," whose author is J. P. True, and which is published by l. H. Brown & Co. of Boston, is the stirring title of a stirring book, the third and last of the so-called Stuart Schuyler series Imaginative tales of the American revolu HE FOUNDED HOME FOR EX-CONVICTS L. S. COFFIN. SPECIAL TO TIlE INTER MOUNTAIN. Des Moines, Nov. 29.--I. S. Coffin has endeared himself to the unfortunate pea ple of the Hawkeye state by founding a home for ex-convicts. Coffin has long been contemplating this step and recently confirmed the project. The philanthropist tion which follow the fortunes and ad ventures of a stalwart young American, trained under Washington himself. Stuart Schuyler, formerly a private, then a cap tain and, in this present volume, a major, with promise of promotion, makes a wor thy and manly hero. He faces danger bravely. lie does his duty as best he can, and in General Greene's campaign against Cornwallis he is able to render valuable assistance. The narrative is one of constant action; the style is crisp and spirited. The descriptions, especially of the battle scenes, are admirable. There is also a bit of a love story, to ward the close of the book, between Stu art and the pretty daughter of a Massa chusetts family, which gives a peaceful ending to a story of strife. "On Guard" is an excellent hosok for boys, with unde niable interest also for older readers. By a Popular Writer. "Winslow Plain," by Mrs. Sarah P. McI.. Greene, is. like her previous novels, "Vesty of the Basins" and "Flood-Tide," a story of life in a little New England village. The scene is laid about half a century ago, and the life of the villagers in that time is presented in the several types of character in the story. Patience Ilaskell, a sweet adl womanly m;ailen, with a broader mind and more liberal ideas than her neighbors, who were brought up in strict sulbjugation to a nar row creed, had a lover in whose future she believed, but who was under an un-. just suspicion of wrong-doing that shad owed her love, He went away to the city, still wor shiping her, but believing his love was not returned. Then disclosures came, the wrong was righted, the lover returned, but the work of Patience: Haskell was done. She had been a beneficent influence in the village, and she passed away to another world with the love at last of even those who had misunderstood her. Mrs. Greene has a keen sense of humor, and, although the end of the story is dis appoigting to those who insist that a love tale should end in the marriage of the lovers, she will be forgiven on account of the enjoyable way in which the tale is told. Harper & Brothers, publishers. Fund of Good Matter. Ainslee's for December opens with a very dramatic story of modern life, en titled the "Unequal Yoke," by Neith Boyce. The plot of the story is founded on the marriage of an American heiress to an Italian marquis, with lineage but no money. The story is told in the words of the heroine, and has a distinct air of biography. This, of course, is a high compliment to the author's artistic power. Molly Elliot Scawell contributes a very pretty love story entitled, "Black or Red?" John Gilmer Speed writes entertainingly and with impartiality about "The Bachelor Maid." The first story that Edgar Saltus has published in a long time appears in this number under the title, "The Dear Departed." It is characterized by all the power and grace habitual to Mr. Saltus' fiction. A very original little essay by Arnold Golsworthy is entitled, "Excusable Crime," and deals with the delight audli ences take in seeing murder and assassl* nation on the stage. John D. Barry in "The Preacher," tells a very strong story that would make an admirable one-act play for such an actress as Mrs. Patrick Campbell. One of the longer stories is "The Claimant's State. ment," by Frederick L. Cowies. It is per' haps the most touching and human feature in the whole magazine. "The Wasp's Dance," by Prince Vladimir Vaniatsky has an exotic flavor. ' rhe Seven Ages of Love," by Dorothy Dix, is infused with real American humor and old-fashioned sense. "New York's Sunday Dinner," b, Kate Masterson, is bright and snapp reading. In all there are about thirty-five contri butions to the Christmas Ainslee's. Among the authors included in it are Sir Edwin Arnold, Henry M. Blossom, Jr., Joaquin Miller, Caroline Duer, Ethel Watts Mum. ford, Lady Violet Greville and Josephine Dixon. Leslie's Monthly for December. A special number of a to-cent magazine so enlarged and beautified that it becomes an edition de luxe of its old ordinary self, with its value as well as its price raised to 25 cents, is an attractive innovation. In Leslie's Monthly for December the con urrirN. will establish an asylum where those who have been under the bar of the law can take refuge after their release. In this way Mr. Cofflin hopes to contribute his aid to society by relieving it of the unfor tunates who cannot find any place or confi dence on their re-entrance into the world. tents fully justified the temporary rise in price. The increased number of pages are partly filled by stories by Ralph Con nor, Eden P'hillpotts, Harry Stillwell Ed wards, and with a tale by Egerton Castle, printed in tint, and another by Seumas Mac.lanus, on colored paper. There are a series of full-page drawings, by Reginald Birch, John CeN Clay, \V. Glackens, Florence Scovel Shinn, Howard Giles, I.adislaw Benda and John Wolcott Adams. The seond theatrical article, "The Dress Rehearsal," with its illustrations from Byron's cillection of photographs, is even fuller of amusing anecdote and theatrical gossip than the first one of the series. i ne more serious side of dramatic criti cism is represented by a critical article on Julia Marlowe. There is a rattling good football story, by Edwin Oviatt, and some excellent Christmas verse by F. L. Stanton, Emmett Campbell Hall and Ellis Parker Butler, while the Marginalia stories are worthy of toe number and the season. LITERARY NOTES. Elizabeth Stuart Phelps' latest novel "Avery," recently appeared in serial form in Harper's Magazine under the title of "llis Wife." Charles E. Brock, the well-known Eng lish caricaturist, has been at his best in illustrating Mrs. Wiggin's "Penelope's Ex periences in Ireland." His cabbies, boat men, farmers and waitresses are delight fully true to the soil of Erin.
