It has _ a Woman’s Club, who W‘ have been reading sol id literature for a quarter of a cent-' ury, any one of whose members is thoroughly competent to conduct a,Chauthuq\ua circle. They know Motley’s Dntch'Bepublic and R01- lins’ Ancient History by heart; and there is nothing deep in Eng- lish literatureâ€"from Dryden to Alfred Austin, from Shakespeare’s .universel cormscation and Francis Bacon’s philosophy down to John Stuart Mills’ political. economy, Spencer’s biology and ‘ Darwin’s origin of speciesâ€"that has not been turned u with a subsoil} plow and’ examineg with microscopic eare. Now they are just coming into a 85000 inheritance,left them for a library building. Unfortun-‘ ntelyfihe building cannot be erect- ed‘in'the air. Castles in Spain are the only kind of structures that can be built without founda- tion. ~There is plenty of ground ’in Glencoe to build on, owned by numerous people rich enough to give the library a site, but unable totdo so for the sufficient reason that they expect to take their blocks and acres with them when wauammumum um SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25. ‘ Md Noah Show lnulllcence.

Moses Smith, had been revived by Rev. A. M. Ingre- hnm, and then held the field. Glencoe is the home of several literary people of note :-â€"â€" Melville E. Stone, founder and builder of the “Chicago News", '(who, as general manager of the Associated Presepossesses greater potentiality than any man in the United State;)'his son Herbert, head of the Chi o ublishing house of H. S. Bigge E Co.;- Gen. Charles H. Howard, editor of the “Farm, Field and Fireside;” Mr. Henry W. Tiernan, editor of “Four O‘Clock." It is the summer home of Mrs. Irene A. Safford, the brill- iant essay writer and book critic of the St. Louis "Globe - Demo- crat;” while a frequent visitor is Miss Mary W. Plummer of Brook- lyn library, a poetess and author of distinction. Readers of the . “North- Shore News” and the NEWS-LETTER can testim in their columns Glen~ coe has always “held up her end” with grace and spirit.

It was read before the. Woman’s Club a year or so later and made a ‘sensationâ€"â€"but just what kind of a one, we are-left in doubt, . Considering the romantic character of the subject, it must have been an inspired efiort. But there‘ia' evidently poetry in. the Glencoe air, if We. may judge by the samples furnished by our Glencoe columns the past season. But now a wombat-h the efllor: escence of t 19 litei‘ary growth.
