Blackmar's Life of Robinson.
From the Lawrence Journal.
Professor Blackmar has written an entertaining and valuable book upon a subject of never failing interest to Kansans and to students of western history. The book is written from the historian's point of view, and is not a mere chronicle of events and facts, nor a eulogy and a panegyric on a remarkable life. The book is history, and must be judged as such. The author is a professional student of history, and has shown great skill in sifting the multitudinous details, and in handling the bulky material at his command. The work shows throughout, careful investigation and research, as the author has always gone to original sources when possible.
The growth of a great commonwealth has never been better illustrated than in the case of Kansas, and the story of its early struggles and trials will always prove to be instructive and valuable both to readers of history and to students of government. Without question the central figure in the early history
of Kansas was the late Governor Charles Robinson, a man of remarkable personality and striking character. It is the career of this man that forms the theme of Professors Blackmar's book, and the story is told in a straightforward way which holds the readers attention from beginning to end. The book is not merely biography, as it contains a great deal of Kansas history, and much relative to the early history and settlement of Lawrence. There was much in Governor Robinson's life that was romantic, and Professor Blackmar dogs full justice to the varied and striking phases of the Governor's career. The book has a value quite apart and separate from this; it has the value of serious history, as in it are found traced out the steps in the formation and growth of the commonwealth of Kansas. The author has had full access to many unpublished papers and documents which greatly enhance the value of the work. While being a life of Governor Robinson, the work is also a history of the state of Kansas. Here one finds a luminous account of the life and times of Governors Robinson, and a clear and definite setting forth of his place in the history of Kansas, and his services to the state.
Professor Blackmar writes a pleasant, straightforward style, and aims to tell his story simple and unobstruusive. The style is admirably adapted to the narrative, as it is direct and vivid
The work is an excellent specimen of book making. It is well printed, upon handmade paper, and is tastefully bound in dark blue cloth. The value of the work is enhanced by fourteen interesting halftones. Crane & Co., Topeka, are the publishers. —C. G. Dunlap.

Y. M. C. A. Notes.
An important meeting of the advisory board was held last Wednesday afternoon.
The book which will be used by the classes in Mission Study, Geography and Atlas of Protestant Missions, by H. P. Beach, offers a very strong course'. The work is up to the standard of the college student in every respect of subject-matter and treatment. Even to a man not primarily interested in missions, it offers a strong line of work in Geography, Ethnology and Christian Sociology. With all of this there is moreover a masterly presentation of the Protestant Mission work. No student who wishes to be informed on the principles, methods, means and difficulties of of worldwide Christian work can afford to be without this work. Classes meet for study in room II, Fraser Hall at 50'clock on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
