By the next year, 1895, Frank had had another idea for air travel. ‘‘Noname'"' called it "Frank Reade Jr.'s Greatest Flying Machine'"' in which he set out for a bit of ‘‘Fighting the Terror of the Coast.'' The picture on the front cover of this nickel thriller shows a large biplane, We are greatly impressed when modern science and inventive skill produces a ‘‘mechanical man'' who can speak and give the correct answer to problems propounded to him when the right buttons are pressed. But back in 1890 Frank Reade Jr. had an "electrical man'' who could do most of those things.

The Old King Brady stories, he says, "‘are attributed to Francis Worcester Doughty, who, curiously, was the author of works on numismatics and archeology."' Pearson does not give the authorship of the other Frank Tousey publications but it is not unlikely that Senarens, who was the ‘"Noname'"' of the Frank Reade Jr. yarns, also wrote most of the others under one of the 27 pseu- donyms mentioned in the obituary story quoted this article. a steam engine inside.

Then was to occur the incident that largely determined his future career. His familiarity with the Big Horn country, where Custer's force had just been killed, gave him a chance to land a job as a reporter on the New York Sun. Here he found a congenial field for his talents. He soon moved to the New York Times, and there he became a star reporter. A brilliant career in journalism was fairly opening before him when, again, he was diverted into another field.

Munroe, two years after he had been made editor, began to write stories for boys. His first book, ‘‘Walkulla,"' was published in 1886. From that time on his books multiplied with amazing rapidity, until in all he had published 35 volumes. After publishing the first few of these books Munroe gave up his editorial duties to devote himself entirely to writing. He had married Miss Mary Barr daughter of Amelia Barr, the novelist, and a contributor to the magazine, and together they traveled extensively, both for pleasure and to collect the material for stories, After the death of his vife, he moved to Coconut Grove Fla., a suburb of Miami, a place which he had visited as a youth n a canoe and had become one of the pioneers and founders of that community before Miami was a town.
