The situation will, we think, strike most ns strained and unnecessary. TWs Is an innovation for Mr. Stevenson, and WO cannot but think that he has not acquitted himself very creditably In It. However, matters move on without any tory s.ilous mishaps, though the girl's father.

Needless to Fay that the tale, as a whole, Is extremely v.. 11 told, it Is stirring and full of ad? venture from the ..tin. while the character-drawing is perfect and of such varied types that it of itself makes the story most interesting and attractive.

Hardly more need bt? given than the title of this pretty little volume, which belong? to th? publishers' series of Handy Volume Classics. The life of the genti?; New England poet wae almost wholly devoid of adventure or stlrrins Incident?as euch lives usually are?and all that can be written of them is a sim? ple record of quiet domestic life and such little personal anecdotes as may have been gathered and preserved. "My reve? rent sense of the power and purity of Mr. Whlttler's Ufe," saya the author, "and of his wide and salutary influence, has led me to a diffident attempt to give to those who have not had the privilege of his Intimate acquaintance a glimpse of him as 1 knew him." Thus the book to accounted for. Some deny that Whit? tler was a poet, but we thlnl?: he was a true one. He wrote much that will al? ways be distasteful to southern readers, but he sinned in this way no worse than did many southern writers. The point of view is everything, and from VVhittler'e standpoint he could not have written otherwise than as he did. Many of his shorter poems are excellent, while hie "8now Bound'' will always be an Ameri? can classic. STORIE? OP THE ARMY. New *fork: Charles Scrlbner's Bons. UK*. Price, 75 cents. For sale by West.

Bettina fJ.ranl, the blondo actress. > whose escapades <>n and off tbe marital! ?t ig?? bave kept her name contstantly I.e. j for- the public, is about to figure in her third ?livore?? sui*, ibis time tlie husband ia Harrison J. Wolf??, a handsome young actor, wbo f. II a victim to tbe charm? of th?? actrets wbile playing leading roles with her in " In Old Kentackv." It was while the company was plaving at the People's Tbeetre,|:n this city, afe? weeks atro that they detennined to join hands, liter went first to Her. Dr. Hough t? .ti. lut he refused to perform the cere? mony because the would-be bride was a divorcee twice over. Then they went to Jersey City, where Justice-of-the-Pe*??! Lockwood united them. Tbi? was on ?September l*th. Now Mr?. Ordwav-Pa deiford-Kaffael-Wolfe is suing fur a di? vorce. According to her last husband he made some discoveries aa to her past while in Baltimore a couple of week? ago that pre eluded the possibility ot further connu? bial blma, and aroused his jealousy against William Beech, ? member of the Net (Joodwm company. Wolle at once de? clined to live any longer with his sew wife, and told her to get a divorce on anr grounds she chose. He would make no opposition. Then he lett the company ami came to New York. Miss Gerard said last night ; "It is true I wat mamed to Wolfe, but it was only in pique. Yoa see, I lore a man?no, I won't tell you whom- and we quarrelled, and ho when Wolfe, who bad been verv attentive, finally became urgent. I consented and so we were married. Our marriage lasted just two dava 1 told the ?leur boy?he ia a real nice, pretty hov?that it was all ab? surd oar living together. I loved another and bad marri*?l bun onW in pique. I aaked him to let me get a divorce, ami be said he would : so that's all there is co it." Wolfe, who is an athlete, taya be will punch Ileecb's head on sight. lie could have found him at the Academy last night among the most vigoiou* applauders of Hits Gerard. ibis is Wolfe's first marital venture. Not so with fair Bettina. Sh? was " Ketty " Ordway, the dashing daughter of General Albert l rrdway. United States arruv. and afterwards Governor of Dakota.
