The club was formed about the first of March and has for its object: to promote, and to provide means for the study of tariff reform, and for the study of the best methods of popular government.

From the fifth inning Stagg was at his best. In the sixth...

Parker entitled "English" History by contemporary writers. The former volumes of this series have been exceptionably good, not only for general reading but for historical references. The book just issued proves to be in no wise inferior to the previous volumes. To mention the subject "The third Crusade of the Christians under Richard I of England" is enough at once to awaken an interest even...
