"Jnck 11 ii illusion, PorcHtcr."
By John Trotwoo'd Moore. The John
C. Winston Co.. of 100C-1?1Q Arch
Street, Philadelphia. $1.20 net.
The story In this hook Is told by Jack
Ballington himself, horn In the homo
of his great-grandfather, John R?ther
fonl, of the Homestretch, adjoining I
Andrew. Jackson's estate In Tcnnesseo
and called Homestretch, because Just
here John Rutherford's horse heat An?
drew Jackson's.
The household In which Jack Ball
inglon Is reared, is remarkable through
Its personality, every member ofltcon
trlhullng to the Interest Of the story.
There is Geueral Rutherford; Jack's
grandfather, who fought with Stone?
wall Jackson In his Valley campaigns
during the War Between the States,
and is fond of talking nbout his sol?
diering; an old mnn full of fiery Im?
pulses and not always fair In his esti?
mate of character, loving one grandson
and disowning the other because this
other, who Is no less than Jack Rnll
Ington, refused a West Point cadctshlp
and went to Germany to study forestry
Instead.
There there Is Aunt Uuorctla, Gen?
eral Rutherford's daughter, who adopt?
ed Jack Ballington when his parents
riled, and K.lolso Ward, an orphan,
brought up by her to he Jack's wife.
There Is Colonel Goff, a younger son
of the English Karl of Carfax, who
served under General Rutherford dur?
ing the Ce>nfc-derate War period, and
settled near him1' at Its close. And
there is Mildred Ballington, known as
"Kittle Sister." who believes Iii Uncle
Jnck and plays a charming part In
saving tho life of a baby colt that was
tiamc-d after her. and, driven by Uncle
Jack, won a race ngalnst Prlncewood,
General Rutherford's favorite, at a
Tennessee county fair, well described
in the opening chapters of the book.
The period of the story Is that prior
to the Spanish-American flurry, and
Its swift and tragic course and end?
ing. Jack Ballington came homo to
Tennessee. Just as the drums wero
heating and regiments leaving for
Cuba or the Philippines. He bore
with some equanimity Genernl Ruther?
ford's lamentations over the fnct that
he was not a soldier by Inclination or
training. What ho did not submit
to so tamely was the apparent prefer?
ence of Klolse Ward for Colonel Goff,
who clearly had it in mind to make her
Lady Carfax. Jack spent some bitter
hours nnd nenrly lost his sweetheart.
But fate fought for him, and, after all,
ho came- In a winner and a soldier as
well.
The love of the soil and of natura
underlies all that thr book holds and
Its romance relates to. The thrill of
the clean smelling turf and the music
of living hoofs bring Into inlnd the
days, when such plantations as Home?
stretch had race-tracks and the pad?
docks for tho hors?s, the mendows
for the cattle, seemed ns much a part
of the. landscape as the purple lark?
spur, the nodding clover blossoms, the
clustering blooms of pink nzalens nnd
the cream-white dogwood dowers.

"HrnT.enhend the Great."
By Maurice Hewlett. From Charles
Scrlbner's Sonn. 155 Fifth Avenue, Now
York City, through the Bell Book and
Stationery Company. ot Richmond.
$1,60.
From fantasies of Senhouse and
Sanchla and flower planting on har?
ren hillsides, Maurice Hewlett has re?
turned to the medieval period and to
a hero who was a drinker and a bravo
among the frequenters of taverns at
Pavla in the year 1102.
In those remote days of merry
brawls and bouts. Captain Brazcnhoad,
with his crimson cloak and his fine,
swaggering llgure, was a leader among
the lighting menofuny company where
ho chanced to bo. He hired himself
to a coward and tyrant ruler, the.
hunchback ruler of Milan and became
one of a cut-throat band gathered
nround the duke to work his cruel
pleasure and execute. Captain Brazen
head was a complex personality, a
braggadoi cio. a man possessed with
the lust of fighting and of tho power
gained through lighting, yet withal n
gallant lover, one who thought a
throne well lost that he might play
shepherd In Cremona as Datnoelus, to
lint shepherdesslng of. Llporala.
Perhaps tho whisper of the word
"Sporza" In Captain Brnzenhead's ear,
by a faithful Balboan. while all Milan
crouched and fawned, may. however,
have had something to do with the ab?
dication which formed a dramatic pre?
lude to rural retirement.
Tho second book of the novel Is
called "The Countess of Plcpus," and
wafts Brazcnhoad to France, trans?
ferring him from the service of the
Viscount of Turonne and the Bishop of
Agde to that of Dame Boesla lies
Baux, whose castle and town he was
vowed to defend on condition thnt his
wife should he made mistress of robes
and chief woman about the person of
the countess.
The last book of Brazenhead's ad?
ventures Is here re-named '"The Cap?
tain of Kent." It brings tho career ot
Solomon Brnzenhond to an end In tho
year of grace 1 477, when he met an
antagonist wlioso prowess was equal
to his own, who claimed to be tho rcul
Count Pecpus, whore. Brazcnhoad was
an Impostor. Ills historian records of
the mighty captain that: "He was
never honten In the tic-Id, hut now In
this last struggle: never refused of I
woman but In favor of himself as
he had now been, none but Ills own
youth, It appears, could have slain
him. nor any . slain his own youth but
himself."
"Kenclln."
By Henry litingan Stuart. Double
day. Pago &. Co., of Garden City, New
York. 11,20.
The opening chapters of this book
arc filled with a forlorn little romance
lhat had Its tragic side and was enact?
ed at a French watering place, where
PeWlla Bnrbour and her comely,
wholesome looking matron of n mother
were spending a summer holiday, and
Paul Ingram, tho man whom Fcnella
loved, was lingering unprofltably be?
side them.
Fenella's mother, a plain woman, had
married far above her class, a clergy?
man of the Church of P.ngland. At his
death soon after the birth of Iiis little
daughter, bis widow found herself re?
duced to the necessity of taking lodg?
ers to eke out her scanty Income. She
rejected advances from her husband's
people that threatened to separate her
from Fenelln. and proceeded to bring
up that young woman as daintily and
in as Impractical a manner as possible.
If Fcnella cried for tho moon, tho moon
she must have. So when she proposed
to give herself away to Paul Ingram,
gaunt waif anil starveling from Amor
lean shores, crying aloud unsalable
literary wares In London, Mrs. Bnrbour,
Hie solf-sacrltlcing, followed out hoi
usual lino, of acquiescence and helped
to make Fenella happy.
The story of tho book Is presumably
told by J. B. Prentice, a literary F.ng
llshman, who proves himself a good
narrator. Ho outlines the grim thirty
four years that lay ahead of the. time
when Prentice mado Paul Ingrain's ac?
quaintance in London. These account-!
cri In some degree for the rnorosenoss
and sense of failure that had eaten
Into Ingrain's soul and darkened his
outlook on life. ,
A climax was reached at the little
French coast town, from which Ingram
was recalled by Prentlco, a promise ot
help from a compatriot of Ingrain, an
American woman by birth, who had
succeeded brill lanUy. where ho could
find no publisher, being , tho occasion
of the recall. With his going he said
a good-by Intended to bo final to Fe?
nella, and thereby broke that young
woman's 'heart. But Tngram was too
hopeless regarding his future to hold
Fenella bound, and, wllly-nllly, their
engagement ended.
Tho man's deeper nature had ro
malhod untouched, so that what tor
Mim had been more or less or nn epls- ,
ode was somewhat quickly disposed j
of. Ills acquaintance with the Amer?
ican novelist, whose personality strong?
ly suggests thnt of .lohn Oliver Mobbos,
nnd the swift and sorrowful ending ol
her careev, mark an added motive and
Impulse in the forces that fought
against Ingram and thrust him ever
and ever deeper in hl3 downward
courso.
tV-nolla, In the meanwhile, having
been left quite alone In the world, had
cultivated her one tnlent, thnt of danc?
ing, nnd become famous through her
stage appearances. A millionaire.
Bryan Lumsdcn, had been Instrumental
in making her way easy. In the end
he begged her tn marry him, nnd she
might have done so hod sho been able
to forget Paul Ingram. Recalled to
bis bedside In nn hour of supreme need,
she hesitated not a moment In her go?
ing. Bryan I.umsden learned the truth
then, and gave up his personal claims
to set Fonclla free.
The hook is written with nn extra?
ordinary power of expression that lends
more than usual interest to all Inci?
dents nnd Invests the characters of
Ihn book with a freshness and a touch
of humanncss that makes them very I
genuine.

of an old-fashioned, two-wheeled

After a Jolting ride along nn unfre?

"Queed," a novel by Henry Sydnofl
Harrison, will be brought out by
Houghton, Mlftlln & Co., of Boston,
this week. Its nppeoranco has been
heralded by the most favorable com
ments from tho publishers, and >4s\:
awaited with no llttlo Interest by
many Virginia andv Richmond people,
who know Mr. Harrison through his
dltorlal work on The Tlmcs-Dlspatch,
and his contributions to magazines.
Already "Queed" Is arousing com
mont and curiosity. People aro bo
ginning to wonder about its characters.
It Richmond furnished originals for*
Mr. Harrison and If "Queed," bspo-.
daily, reproduces some familiar figure
In this community.
The author of the book says em?
phatically not. Ho stnles that the
setting for his novel Is In a town,
where conditions are somewhat similar,
to those existing hero, but except In
tho matter of Incidental referenced
his novel has no connection, such asi
readers might be interested in trac?
ing out. to his association with this
city, the friendships formed and tho
observations furnished hy his social
and professional Richmond career. t
So "Queed" may bo taken up without
any Idea that a reader has beforo hint
the tnsk of Identification, as well 03
enjoyment. That tho merit of tho
story will claim Interest for itself Is
a matter that tho fore Judgment of
1 competent critics renders very cer
1 I tain.
