Miss Chapman was a very competent lady, and filled her position with signal ability. She had a host of friends who regret her ddmise. Miss Chapman was a sister of Dr. A.

Judging from the some- what extended synopsis of the book sent us we infer that we shall he compelled to forego the pleasure of reading it. Said synopsis indicates that it is only, another mess of tommy-ro- t dished up by this alleged genius. We of the west know better than to look for heroines among the dirty Apaches, whose fondness for things untidy is so characteristic, and the mention of an Apache princess causes us to say with the Frenchman: It is to laugh. Besides, it is about time this doughty slinger of Illuminated ink was sat upon.
