LITERARY TOPICS.
State Librarian’s Report — Books
Worth Reading.
Special arrangements are made in
many libraries to supply the firemen
at their various quarters with books
from the public library so that they
may have the chance to read in their
spare moments. Why isn’t this an
excellent idea for Morristown libra
ries?
Mollie Elliott Seawell’s “The House
of Egremoyt, ” is a seventeenth cen
tury story, with a love affair and a
generally romantic stage setting.
“This is the mission of the poet and
romancer—to sponge out of existence
for a time the stiff, refractory, and un
lovely realities and give in their place
a scene of ideal nobility and charm.”
—Alice of OldVincennes.
Readers whose appreciation made
“The Love Letters of a Musician,”
by Myrtle Reed, a success,will be in
terested to know that another book
containing “Later Love Letters of
a Musician” has just been issued.
It consists of a number of love letters
supposed to have been written by a
musician each of which is founded on
a musical motif, given in advance on
a fly leaf. This idea of music pro
duced in words and infinitely varied
is novel and very cleverly carried out.
The tone of the letters is optimistic
and the touch distinctly feminine.
His Brother’s Keeper, by Rev.
Charles M. Sheldon. The story tells
in a most interesting fashion of the
trials and troubles of a young man,
honestly disposed to do the right thing
with his wealth, and also of the
hardships and burdens that are borne
by the laborers who work for a small
pittance each day. The story there
fore treats the great question of capi
tal and labor both from the view
point of the millionaire and of the
man who works for his daily bread.
It is filled with interesting situations
and is from beginning to end an en
tertaining tale.
To the lovers of RTiimals no more
attractive or interesting book than
Ernest Seton Thompson’s “ Wild Ani
mals I Have Known” can be recom
mended. It is profusely illustrated,
and is both enteraining and instruc
tive.
Edmund Clarence Stedman says of
‘‘Eben Holden” by Irving Bacheller:
‘‘It is a forest-scented, fresh-aired,
bracing and wholly American story
of county and town life. ... If.
in the far future, our successors wish
to know what was the real life and
atmosphere in which the country folk
that saved this nation grew, loved,
wrought and had their being, they
mu:', go back to such true and zestful
aD',1 poetic tales of ‘fiction’ as ‘Snow
Lound’ and ‘Eben Holden.’ ”
The ten books which sold best in
New York City in the week ending
Saturday, Januaryl2, were as follows :
1. The Cardinal’s Rose.
2. In the Palace of the King.
8. Heart of the Ancient Wood.
4. Alice of Old Vincennes.
6. An Englishwoman’s LoveLetters.
6 Philip Win wood.
7. Eben Holden.
8. Richard Yea and Nay.
9. The Lane That Has No Turning.
10. L’Aiglon.
‘‘What is your husband’s favorite
fiction?” asked the inquisitive preson.
"I can hardly say at a moment’s
notice,” said the patient wife, ‘‘whe
ther he prefers the sick friend story
or the detained at the office on busi
ness narrative.”—The Indianapolis
Press.
Those who heard Prof. Eugene C.
Foster’s instructive and entertaining
lecture on ‘‘Liquid Air” last Friday
evening may be interested to know
the names of some books on the sub
ject. Prof. Foster said he could rec
ommend ‘‘Liquid Air” by Prof. T.
O’Connor Sloane, of Columbia Uni
versity, as one of value to all readers,
while to those who desired a more
scientific treatise on the subject,
‘‘Liquittcation of Oases,” by Hardin
would be found useful. These books
are not at present in the library but
will probably soon - be added. Two
very good articles on “Liquid Air”
may be found in the Forum for the
months of August and October, 1899.
Give me that book whose power is such
That I forget the north wind’s touch.
Give me that book that brings to me
Forgetfulness of what I be.
Give me that book that takes my life
In seeming far from all its strife.
Give me that book wherin each page
Destroys my sense of creeping age.
John Kendrick Bangs.
The annual report of State Librarian
Henry C. Buchanan shows that on
Nov. 1st, 1900, there were 2,440 books
belonging to traveling iibraries, 527
having been contributed by clubs con
nected with the New Jersey Federa
tion of Women’s Clubs, ana by officers,
directors and committees of the Fe
deration and seventeen by a New York
firm. The libraries are now in use in
all of the counties excepting Camden,
Hudson,Middlesex, Ocean and Union.
Sussex has three, at Branchville,
Lafayette and Hamburg; Warren four,
at Blairstown, Belvidere, Washington
and Asbnry; Morris, one, at Port
Oram. Theprevailin ; taste of readers
run on fiction. Thu greatest popu
larity of the libraries was at Shiloh,
Branchville, Blairstown, Pennsgrove,
Bridgeport, Pemberton, Hamburg,
Belvidere and Washington, where all
of the books in the libraries have
been rea l, and the circulation has been
large.
Basket Ball.
Those who wish to witness an ex
ceedingly tine game of basket ball
should attend the Y. M. C. A. on
Wednesday evening, Jan. 80th at 8.80
o’clook and there watch the contest
ing teams play for the championship
of the Morristown Christian Associa
tion. The teams participating are
the Orients and Cyclones,both of this
city and are composed of the follow
ing men:
Orients. Cyclones.
C. J. Collier, capt., R. Shelley, capt,
S.C. Griffith, O. King,
C. Compton, R. Savage,
A. Smith, P.Fry,
R. Leek, F. Davis.
The Orients played the opposing
team a few weeks ago, resulting in
the defeat of the Cyclones although
they put up a strong game, and played
their positions well. As both teams
have been practising very hard for
the past few weeks, it is expejted that
the game will be most exciting and
thus afford a good evening’s eujoy
ment to all those who attend.
Tickets may bo procured from any
of the team members, for the sum of
ten cents.
