Huntingtomis to have a lodge of Elks. Plans have been quietly on foot for some time and the preliminary arrangements are now entirely completed. The list of charter members was sent in and contains seventy-sex names of those who will work for the success of the move in Huntington. When the Wabash fully decided a few months ago to adopt the block system in handling its trains one ot the first things it did was to establish a school, in order to give every man connected with handling trains an opportunity to become thoroughly acquainted with the block system before it was established. Every man whose duties came under the new rules in any sense was obliged to master this course of instructions, to attend school every day or so, and to pass a most rigid examination. The August McClure’s might almost be advertised as “the book of the month.” Though it is a typical midsummer fiction number and a tip-top one, too it manages to find place for a number of striking articles that will perhaps be even more eagerly read than the stories. Professor Angelo Heilprin, who it will be remembered was the first man to go to the top of Mount Pelee after the eruption, tells the detailed story of his explorations. Professor Heilprin is one of the foremost gelogolists in the country. His narrative will be of the most absorbing interest both to general readers and to science and his conclusions concerning the real natureof the eruptions probably be more fully corroborated by the detailed investigation of the French scientific commission now on the spot than those of any other early explorer. The Review of Reviews for August continues its series of invaluable portraitures of men prominent iu public life throughout the world. The Rt. Hon. Arthur J. Balfour, just called to the premiership of the British Empire, is the subject of an admirable character sketch by Mr. A. Maurice Lowe, a writer whose acquaintance with British politics and politicians attests the value of an article from his pen on such a subject. Mr. W. T. Stead relates an interview recently held with Mr. George Frederick Watts, A. R. A., the only British artist deemed worthy by King Edward of a memliership in the new Order of Merit, just established. Mr. Walter Wellman, in an article on “Spooner of Wisconsin,” writes in an appreciative vein of the man who by common consent ranks today as the leader of the United States so far as that body may be said to have a leader. Each of these three men, whose are described in the August ; Review, is at this moment very decidedly “in the public eye.” The Review prints these sketches of them at ! just the right time.
