Before commenting upon it we pause to remark that it is a typical Kansas book written by a Kansas woman, the wife of Major Hudson of the Topeka Capital, and published by a Kansas publishing house, Geo. W. Crane & Co., of Topeka. The story itself is intended to arouse our attention to the wrongs of the Mormon hierarchy and is aptly adapted to its object. Written in a clear and lucid manner it takes us with the heroine from her eastern home to the land of the saints, where we sympathize with her in her sorrows and cares and admire her for her devotion and fortitude. It is interesting without being intricate and entertaining without being so thrilling and overdrawn as to arouse our criticism. Taken all in all it is a book well worthy of a place on our library shelves. The Soap Bubble, Mr. T. J. Farron's play, will be at the Opera House, Monday evening, May 3.

Denominational schools are not always the most saintly, Lenox College, for instance, a Presbyterian school in Hopkins, Iowa, is in a rather demoralized state of affairs. The students have been having quite a rumpus with the faculty. They issued a weekly in which they lampooned the professors in a most revolting style. In reading that paper one is led to conclude that either the faculty is a worthless batch of incompetency, or the students a rebellious, slanderous horde of barbarians who do not know the first elements of decency.
