ed crime has been
committed, and then that the accused person is connected with it, before
they find what is called a true bill, and allow the case to go to the
courts.

In the Hazleton case the Grand Jury has decided that a crime was
committed by the deputies in firing on strikers, and the sheriff and his
posse will have to prove that their action was justifiable, or else
suffer the penalty of their crime.

BOOK REVIEWS.

STORY OF ULYSSES.

This book consists of a series of stories of the fortunes and
misfortunes that befell Ulysses in his wanderings for ten years after
the capture of Troy. The stories are arranged in a different order from
that in the Odyssey, and form a most delightful narrative. The author,
Agnes Spafford Cook, is an excellent Greek scholar, and has been very
successful in making the deeper meanings of this great poem shine
through these stories of the trials of the wisest of Greek heroes in his
struggle against the efforts of the gods to prevent him from returning
to his native land.

The book is well illustrated and attractively bound in cloth. Price, 50
cents.

"Pierre and His Poodle," by Elizabeth W. Champney, is a prettily
illustrated, bright little story of a little French boy and his master's
poodle. Pierre, in his attempts to find Popotte, the runaway poodle, has
many adventures, strange and fascinating. He finally recovers the dog,
and the story winds up with happy futures in prospect for the hero and
heroine and their friends. (Dodd, Mead & Co.)

LETTERS FROM OUR YOUNG FRIENDS.

_Editor of "Great Round World."_

DEAR SIR:--Being advised that THE GREAT ROUND WORLD was a
very interesting and useful paper for use in the schoolroom,
I have for several weeks been a subscriber for your
magazine. It is needless to say that my pupils as well as
myself have found the articles contained therein very
interesting.

In your issue of November 4th I notice that there were
printed several letters from a school in Foxboro, Mass.

As my pupils are interested in letter-writing, I think it
would be a great incentive toward the accomplishment of good
work in that direction if they may be allowed to write a
batch of letters to the editor of THE GREAT ROUND WORL
