of cattle ranges of Arizona, the great desert, and
the grand canyon of the Colorado river. The author has written a romance
of adventure, of conflict, and of love,--a story of breathless interest,
remarkable situation, and great humor and pathos. Chalkeye, the cowboy
who tells the story, Captain McCalmont, the robber-chief, Lord
Babshannon, the owner of a Colorado ranch, his son "Jim," and "Curly,"
who gives the name to the story, are characters of great strength,
finely portrayed and well contrasted.
ON THE FIRING LINE
_A Romance of South Africa_
By ANNA CHAPIN RAY _and_ HAMILTON BROCK FULLER
In this fine romance of love and war Miss Ray has a wider field than she
has compassed before and strikes a deeper note of feeling. The events
take place in South Africa during the Boer War, and in local details Mr.
Fuller has given valuable aid. As in the author's other books, the
characters awaken interest because they are so human.
A KNOT OF BLUE
By WILLIAM R. A. WILSON
_By the Author of "A Rose of Normandy"_
In a new tale of absorbing interest the author of the successful "Rose
of Normandy" has faithfully portrayed feminine tenderness and sweetness
of character, and at the same time has shown that a work of fiction can
have for its motif the gratification of personal revenge without
offending the highest moral taste of the modern civilized world. "A Knot
of Blue" abounds in intrigue, adventure, the joy of living and
achieving, and it throbs with romantic tenderness. The scene is laid in
Old Quebec.
