May 121 12th. the Whig will ecommenee the publication of a new seria Gold," by Stew art Edward White, the renowned novelist, explorer-and hunter. This story 'was reviewed in the Whig's book re view page whenit fiest appeared in book form a couple-of years ago. and it was then noted as one of the finest anid most interesting stories of the day. The Whig, therefore. counts itself very lucky inileed to have been able to secure this splendid serial for ifs readers. The scenes are laid in California during the days of the gold fever of "49, a most thrilling period in the history of the west. Law and order were unknown then. but the fel- low who transgressed the rules of the majority received short shift at the hands of the vigilantees. Mr. White has made that feverish time live forever in history. It is a very wonderful piece of work. He has recreated the past, and we go with bated breath through the scenes he pietures with so much vividness: Part of the story is laid in Pan- ama, which was the route taken by the gold seekers.® If your heart has ever beaten a little faster at the thought of those adventurous days, vou will follow the fortunes of this little party of four with real delight. ' Remember the first instalment of this vivid story will begin on Saturday, May 12th.
