AMBA8SADOR ANDREW D. WHITE
haa written for the May Century an ar
ticlo entitlod "A Stateaman of Itueaia."
Thia ia a character aketch of the moat
iniluenlial peraonago in Ruaaia, Pro-curator-Qeneral
Pobedonoatzeff, of the
Holy Synod, who haa beon called "the
arch-perseculor," and 'tho Torque
mada of tho ninetecnth century." Am
baasador White will nlso tell about an
other pictureaquo character, Father
Ivan, tho miracle-worker.
Amono tho notable features of the
May Ladkst Home Journal are an il
luatrated article on Joseph Jeffcrson
at home, "After-Dinner Sloriea," a
pago of brightly told anecdotea of
promincnt peraonagea. and Rudyard
Kipling'a famoua Jubileo hymn, "Ee
cesaional," aet to muBic by Beginald do
Koven. "ACabinet Momber'a Wifo"
glvea further interoating glimpaea of
Washington social-offlcial lifo, and an
other view "InBide of a Hundred
Homea" ia afforded. There are arti
cles on woman's attiro and varioua
houaehold topica. By the Curtia Pub
liahing Company. One dollar per year;
ten cents per copy.
At a momont whon war and all its
applinnces and aapects have an espe
clal intereat, no doubt tho flrst thing
tnrned to in JlfcOiure's Magazint for
May will bo Rudyard Kipling'a poem
on the torpedo. In a recont atatement
by Lieutenant G. E. Armatrong that
"the torpedo haa brought into the navy
a freah zeat, a new romance, and poaai
bilities moro brilliant than wero oziat
ent before ita adoption," Mr. Kipling
has found an idea of juat the eort he
lovea, and doveloped thereon a poem
in hia nobleat manner majeatic in
movemont, felicitouB and dramatic in
deacription, and myatical and deep
aearching in aentiment. It is truly
great in ita individual expreasiona, and
grcater yet in ita completo offect and
impreeaion.
Colleqes for women in thia coun
try aro now old enough to have cus
toma and traditiona, and a diatinct un
dergraduate lifo, after the manner of
men'a collegea. The flrat aorioua at
tompt to repreaont tbis lifo in magazine
articlea ia begun in the May Scribner's,
with "Undorgraduate Life at Wellea
loy," by Abbo Carter Qoodloe. The
article haa nothing to do with acholas
tic ideala or tho problema of higber
educatlon; it plcturea tho life aB one
who haa lived it aeoa it. Miaa Good
loo'a akillaa a writor waaamplyatteated
by tho aucceaa of hor "Colloge Girla"
atoriea. She exhlbits here humor and
a koen appreciation of tho aocial side of
the llfe at WelleBley particularly as it
ia livod by "tho largo mojority who take
collego aanely, and work when they
work and play when it ia time to play."
Hor pictureaquo account of "Float
Day," "Troo Day," the "Barn Swal
Iowb," etc, ia aupplomented wlth a
aoriea of brilliant illustrations by the
Miasea Cowlce, Poixotto, Gilbert, and
Roaonmoyer.
TnE completo novel in the May iaaue
of LippincotVs is "Tho Uncalled," by
tho colored poot, Paul Laurenco Dun
bar. Though undoratood to bo hia first
easay In oxtended flction, it ia an es
tromoly Btrong, thoroughly readablo
Btory. Tho scene 1b laid mainly in a
small Ohio town; the hero ia a youth
of tho humbloat origin, who is forced
into tho ministry and work8 hia way out
of it. "No. 87,017 Oolt," by George
Brydgea llodnoy, recounts tho espe
rloucoa of n Bmall party of Americans
in Cuba during a former insurrcction.
Thoodoro Gallaghor descrlbca ono
