A Choica Specimen of Hie Literature of the English Turf. AT1KACHTE EOOKS IN VIVEB. COVERS There is so much poetry in Mr. E. H. Stoddard's little book of verse "The Lion's Cub" (Charles Scribuer's Sons: J. K. Wel din & Co., 51 25) that one knows not where to begin quoting. The rioetry begins with the roses and sunbeams of the cover, and never flags to the last word ot "The Lion's Cub;" the name-piece of the book being, in this instance, set for epilogue. Perhaps this little couplet of verses will illustrate as well as any other the Oriental meditativeness which marks the book on almost every page. The title is "Tne Door:" One knocked at tbe Beloved's door. "Who is there?" Tho loud reply To the Voice within was. "L" "Gothyway and come no more. This house holds not Me and Thee; "Who himself loves, loves not Me." Closed was the Beloved's aoor. Back to the Beloved's door. After twelve months' prayer and fast. In the desert lone and vast. The lover came and knocked once more. "Who is there" Tho answer now Was no longer "1." hot "Thou." Opened was the Heavenly Door. The wise men from the East speak in the book. Mohammedan sages and Persian poets and Brahman priests bave sagacious and pleasant utterance here. Perhaps the best of the book, however, is its company of lovers. Mr. Stoddard's venerable head, with beard or patriarchal cut and color, does not prepare the reader who looks first ut his picture for all these tripping, graceful, win ning, cheery ana tender loye songs. "Silver Axnoris" begins the book and makes a good name ior a good part of it. ltudyard Kipling's "Departmental Dit ties and Barrack Room Ballads" (United States Book Company) is a book ot rather aewspapery poetry, and probably owes its sight of the light mainly to Mr. Kipling's sudden popularitv. Most of these verses are capital "catches" to be said or sung at sol diers' messes or in the glimmer of campfires or to the time of drum and fife. English politics especially as thev have headquarters at the Foreign Office; and military life in India, with its pranks and promotions, make up tbe themes of the majority of these slap dash rhymes. And as glimpses into that side of life set in frames which probably go better with the pictures than Mr. Stod dard's gracefully finished settings would these pages are worth while. You can't write up "loots" and "pink dominoes," and the story of the rise of "Potiphar Gubbins, C E.." and the woes of 2 per cent reduc tions in "our incomes," in the style ot Hafiz, or with the gravity ot Marcus Aurelius. Here is a verse for sample: When the 'arf made recruity goes ont to the East 'E acts like a babe an' 'e drinks lite a beast. An' e wonders because 'e is frequent de ll ceased Ere e's lit for to servo as a soldier. Serve, serve, serve as a toldier, nerve, serve, sen e as a soldier, Serve, serve, serve as a soldier. So-oldier hof the Queen! That is how it goes, rollicking verse and shouting chorus, ballads of the barrack room. There are no shouts and no choruses in "Songs from an Attic" (Brentano's: J. It. Weld in & Co.) A sad book for the most tart; telling stories of discouragement in rather indifferent meter, and not very suc cess "ul endeavors after poetry. Here, for example: I look at on, my brothers in the swim. While I wade In the lower depths of art. And wonder, a& my day and eyes grow dim. How eacb of jou, from joutU up, clayed your part. Well, I bad pearls, too, in this soul of mine: I wooed and won, and lost, too, in mj day. I got in sadness what I tossed to smne And now my soul is going far aw ay. Prettily bound, with a green spider climbing up a white wall into a green net. II. It was in the days when the stage of the theater was the chancel of the church, that those pious pilzrims, the Crusaders, came back ont of the East with pockets full of playing cards. "What a motley company of inventions and discoveries, of arts and sci ences, of things good and things bad, of re ligion and arithmetic, came bacc with the Crusaders! "The Devil's Picture Books," Mrs. John King Van IJensselaer calls these packs of painted pasteboard, borrowing a name from their enemies. And here is a fine, handsome book, taste'ully bound, neauti'ully printed, published bv Dodd, Mead & Co., sold by J. It. AVeldin & Co., price So; all about playing cards, beginning as far back as the days when swords, cups, sticks and money were the "pips" distin guishing the suits, and extending into all lands and times. A book full ot curious information, capitally stated and set out with page of colored rep resentation of queer cards. Printing from movable blocks began, it seems, with cards, and thence extended into other vari eties of literature. Cards of ivory and mother of pearl; cards of parchment, ot wood, of paper; big leaves for cards in Malayland, canvas lor cards in Hindostan; even gold and silver are among the materials out of which the "devil's picture books" have been manufactured. Chinese cards are bright crimson, and of the shape and size of a finger. Hindoo cards are made in seven suits. At the time of the Revolution, Kings were expelled from the court circle of the cards of France. Some people, it ap pears, have desired, out of intense patriot ism, to banish them from the cards of America and to put Presidents and Gen erals in the place of them! Mr. and Mrs. Harrison, for example, and Mr. and Mrs. Morton, but who shall stand for knave? Cards and horse racing are believed to be of like feather. Mrs. Van Rensselaer's book mav have Mr. Curzon's book for com panv: "The Blue Ribbon of the Turf." Gebbie & Co.: J. E. AVeldin & Co., 81 75). being a chronicle of the race lor the Derby. The history begins with victory of "Diomed" in 17S0, and Is brought up to the victory of "Sainfoin" in 1890. It was in 181" that "Derby Day," was first formally recognized aa national holidar,Parliament, by resolution, adjourning to attend the horse rare. For now more than a century the contest on Epsoni Heath has been the Isthmian game of Englaud. Here you may learn everything about it. Touts and jockeys, winners and losers, jockejs and bettors, the social and financial features of the race are here recited, with "Sainfoin's" graceful figure for fitting frontispiece. III. Dodd, Mead & Co. publish George Sand's "Gallant Lords of Bois-Dore" in two hand some volnmes and in Stephen Clovis' trans lation. Also two novels by Charles Keade, his "Peg Wofiington" and his "Christie Johnstone," in charming covers, and in print which is perfection. These form in tact volumes of a series which these publish ers promise, called the Guinta (joonta) se ries, named after the great Italian printers of the early lG:h century. The series will contain reproductions of the classics but not ol the "hack classics," not the common run oi immortals. The tvpc was made in France. 1 23 a volume.' (J. E. Weldin & Co.) People who are interested in politics or in puddings, in statesmen or dishes, will find matter of interest in "Statesmen's Dishes find How toCook Them." (Brentano's., J. E. Weldin & Co., 51 25.) Mrs. Benjamin Harrison is author of some considerable number of these culinary endeavors, begin ning with an autograph recipe for clear soup, and including a minute and graphic nrophecv of the dinner which the President of the United States will be partaker of upon the 25th day of this month of Decem ber. Other people, such is the wide variety of human likings, will take a deeper interest in Don Passos' on "The Law of Collateral In. heritarce. Legacy and Succession Taxes" (L. K. Strousa & Co., J. E. "Weldin & Co.) From Dion Cassius to Don Passos many have been the expositors of that singular provision of things, in virtue of which, after a man is dead, the State comes in and takes a good handful of his gold and silver before delivering his goods to his widow and children. Mr. Don Passos applauds this law, wants it applied, without even except ing charitable institutions, and would have it made heavier than ever. Statesmen's dinners and statesmen's taxes may alike be evaded by escaping to Alaska. Thither, this very summer, jumped Mrs. Septima M. Coll is, and already behold a book, illustrated tvith "kodak" photo graphs, and itself a good illustration of in stantaneous composition, "A Woman's Trip to Alaska" (Cassell Publishing Com pany, J. E. Weldin & Co.),General Sherman writes a commendatory preface. Bat the book approves itself. It is sprightly, en tertaining, never learned, never statistical, always observant of men, and women, and things. It has at the start a brisk picture of the energetic lady who made the trip, and at the finish a 'red-lined map of the pleasant journey. A big totem-pole adorns the cover. Several little, unexpected col ored prints enliven the text. The book is written in the form of a journal letter a good letter to get. Finally, these hooks, of one sort and an other: First, some paper-covered ones; "Le Beau Labreur," by Annie Thomas (United States Book Company), dedicated to a Major ana a bulldog; a soldier book, with a foolish soldier for a hero. "The Shadow of Edger Laroque" (Cassell), translated from the French, a detective story. "A Laggard in Love," by Jeanie Gwynne Bethany (United States Boob: Company). "It was then that Victoria arose, and, stretching out her hand across that grave, placed it oh, so tenderly on the bowed head. Hand in hand they wended their way through the churchyard, an everlasting peace filling their hearts." "Basil and Annette," by B. L. Farjeou (United States Book Company), Australia, perform ing bears, mines, misfortunes and good love, beautifully told. "Three Millions," by Oliver Optic (Lee & Sbepard) an old story in new type. "The Dominion of Darkness" Charles H. Sergei, and "Work While Ye Have the Light,"(United States Book Company), both by Tolstoi. The first, a play, tbe second, a parable. The playjis coarse, with characters who are as uncivilized and as unpleasant as their names. The parable is fine. It reminds the reader of "Where there is love, there is God also," and others of Tolstoi's simplest and best. Here are the two sides of Tolstoi; one side Russian, and best kept in Eussia, where some people with sturdy palates may relish it; the other side cosmopolitan, worthy of the writer's fame, and worth everybody's reading. Then, these two or three in good bindings: "The Art of AuthorshiD," by George Bainton (D. Appleton & Co., J. E. Weldin & Co.) Interviews with nearly all the eminent writers of the day, who here set down in their own words their lessons of experience for the aspiring author. The result is a unique and valuable book. Methods, reading, simplicity and obscurity, and "truthfulness to one's self" make head ings of chapters. "The Old Meeting House," by Eev. A. M. Colton (Worthing ton Company) with an old-fashioued ecclesi astical barn on the cover, and a variety of pleasant reminiscences within. Mr. Colton is a Presbyterian divine, now past 80, who can remember the time when everybody be lieved in the Westminster Confession of Faith. And he would persuade us that peo ple in those days were not long-faced and heavy-hearted, as we imagine, and as they really should have been to keep consistent with their creed. "Earth's crammed with heaven: And ever" commonbush afire with God; But only lie who tees takes off his shoes; Tne rest sit round it, and pluck blackberries." "The age we live in, like the natural world around ns, if full of wonders. Let us be wakeful, observant, reflective, reverent, not disobedient to the heavenly vision." That is the spirit of the book. And with that ex cellent sentiment, this week's allotment ends of the labors of The CBITIC. CHESS. CAISSA'S CHRISTMAS CAROL. QUEEN'S QAMEIT. Chess Brilliant No. 2. THE BATTLE OF THE KNIGHTS.

C. Blown, of Altoona, was visiting Pittsburg some time ago, Mr. Patterson invited a few players to his house to meet Mr. Brown. Among those present was Champion Reed, and this very game came up and Mr. Patterson allowed Mr. Brown to draw the game after refusing tbe 2 for L Reed pointed out the play at the time that would enable blacks to win. It Mr. Patter son can furnish tho game with Mr. Brown we would bo glad to have it, also tho play shown by the champion. We InVite criticism on this game. Will be clad to hear from Messrs. Lindsay, Maize, Tyson, Boyle, Armstrong and all of our correspondents. Solution In Rhyme of Problem No. 1C. " BY W. LEOGETT, LONDON. If to solve this you contrive, White must push from 1 to 6, Dusky Monarch move in line, White comes out from 5 to 9, Black has nothing more to do But hurry out to 22, White on 13 quickly pops King on 18 there he stops, Black is in a dreadful fix, When 30 glides to 2& 21 then onward travels, White on 9 the plot unravels, Man to 30 then we drive, Slyly dropplnginto 5.

Tyson was about to challenge W. C. Brown, of Altoona. That challenge has gone tortb, and includes any resident player in the State. We are confident Mr. Brown will at onco accent the defi, which will make a very interesting match. Mr. Brown is at nresent champion of Central Pennsyl vania, having defeated Mr. Tyson in their last '. matcn ior tne nonor. There are a few in Pittsburg, who think Mr. Tyson has covered too much ground in his challenge. Thev are confident we bave material in this Western part that can defeat either ot tho two Central experts the old veteran, II. Lindsay, J. Maize and Thomas Boyle. Jf a team match could be arranged (which in no way wonld interfere with the championship match) Maize and Boyle for Western; Brown and Tyson for Central, it would create a greater interest ana give more satisfaction than any match that could be played outside of the world's championship. The great wonder of to-day is who will be the future champion of Encland? Mother Sklpton says Willie Gardner. Northern Leaaer. Negotiations are in progress for a match of a novel kind between Mr. Martins ana Mr. W. Campbell, of Glasgow, the blindfold champion. It is proposed that a match of 20 games be played, in which tho ex-champion is-to give tbe odds of the draws that is. drawn games are to count as wins to Campbell, bnt the latter Is to play without sight of board or men. Great .In terest will no donbt be taken in this unique match, which is spoken of as likely to como off in Glasgow during tho approaching holidays. Glasgow Herald.
