Personal AND Social lEBlHE September Harper's is really another fiction 3 ti number (just as rich and beautiful as the August number) and the seven complete short stories are a most striking group, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps has written a story of a strange psychological sort involving a curious instance of telepathy. Percival Gibbon tells a dramatic tale of mysterious Russia, for which HOWARD PYLE has painted remarkable pictures in color. Norman Duncan contributes a charmingly tender story of a rough Labrador man and child. George Schock's story is a love-story of a new sort most dramatic and appealing. A new English writer, R.

Vernede, contributes a brilliantly humorous story of a novel situation of a great man whose greatness was never recognized by his wife until outsiders pointed it out. Lily Long pictures a thoroughly modern situation in our American society a "married" love-story with an eminently satisfactory ending. Harry Stilwell Edward's story is another picture of married life of a different type a story of a very young bride. Important and Interesting Articles There is a notable variety in these articles. Mr.

Lewis Mac-Brayne made a trip to Italy in the steerage of an ocean liner to study the returning emigrants. He gives a curiously intimate picture of their life, their talk and their point of view. W. D. Howells writes delightfully of the old English town of Boston the "mother of the American Atherfs," as he calls it.

SvEN Heden, perhaps the greatest living traveller, tells of his recent remarkable discoveries in Tibet. Dr. Edward A. Ayers contributes a most interesting scientific paper comparing the eyes and range of vision of the lower animals and insects with those of man. Professor Lounsbury takes up the use of the comparative and superlative forms of adjectives in our speech.

A delightfully sane article on some mooted questions in the usage of the English language. Charles H. Caffin has written a charming appreciation of the work of one of our younger painters, Sargeant Kendall, with which are reproduced many of the artist's most notable pictures. There are many pictures in color in the September Harper's pictures by Pyle, Schoonover and others. Mrs.

RECEPTION TO ARIONITES. Members of European Conceit Party Welcomed Laurel Wreath Pre sented to President Fuehrer. Last night at Arion Hall a reception was given by the members of the Arion Soeiety who remained at home to the Arionites who have Just returned from Europe. The decorations at the hall, inside and out, were very handsome. There were flowers and flags and on the walls of tho singing room, where the reception was held, were represented beautiful Rhine scenes.

The singing hall not being large enough to accommodate all the visitors about one thousand, the summer garden, also beautifully decorated, was used. In the rooms of the board of directors, the trophies presented to the singers In Germany were shown. Almost every city visited was represented by a gift, there being many gold and silver loving cups, pictures and laurel wreaths. The reception opened with a song of welcome rendered by the singers who remained at home. This was followed by a welcome address delivered by Ex-Prusident Theobald Engelhard, who acted as president during the absence of Mr.

Fuehrer. Several choruses were rendered by the singers, Peter BachenU)rg having selected the following songs for the occasion: "leh gruesso Ulch" and "Flclm Liebchen zu Huns." The singers of the European party responded with some of the songs which they sung In Germany. The feature of the evening was the address by President Henry Fuehrer. Mr. Fuehrer said that he was not prepared to give at that time a full report of the successful trip, but only to thank the members for the reception.

He said that the trip surpassed all expectations. The president added that the Arions of Brooklyn through this trip had made its name 'amous in tho Fatherland. Mr. Fuehrer paid high compliment to the singers, to their musical conductor. Arthur Claassen, and to all those who helped in arranging the trip.

The president, concluded with the statement that, in his opinion, the friendly relations between America and Germany had been strengthened. After Mr. Fuehrer had finished everybody shook hands with him and congratulated him. Ex-President Charles Frocb presented Mr. Fuehrer with a laurel wreath in recognition of his services, in behalf of the Aiiou members who remained at home.

After tho presentation there were essays by Julius Fr.ienk.d nnd Martin I'vi a ooeni was recited by Fr. Koempel. Miss Bertha Holsten, president of the ladies' chorus of the Arion, recited a poem, which was written by Peter Bach-enberg. IN HONOR OF MR. SANKEY.

The Testing of PAIN'S CARNIVAL New Wonders Revealed Fire Wizard at Brighton. by the You might have guessed that President Roosevelt was going up in an airship from the rush to Brighton Beach last night. The disturbance, however, was only Pain's thirtieth annual carnival. Though it was Pain's thirtieth carnival it was Brighton Beach's first, and Brighton Beach never in Hb life looked so much like fairy land.

The outside illuminations blended particularly well with the alec-trlcal displays of the shows along the pike. The big crowd that jammed inside the great Pain pavilion, where the Boer War used to be fought twice dally, had more and more striking novelties than did tho crowds which thronged he walks, content with that part of the carnival which cannot be hidden under a bushel. The first novelty was shared fully with the outsids crowd. Hamilton flew his airship over the pavilion and did stunts with it, while the searchlight man made his movements and the steering of his bulky craft against the wind as clear aB noonday. There is always some novelty in Pain's fleworks, long as he has been revealing wonders.

This year it Is the free use made of blinding white light which plays such an important part iu his fountain of life, his sheaf of wheat and other new devices. Early in the evening he set off a lot of bombs which threw streams of this blinding glare through the air. The special pieces included a combat of prizefighters outlined in fire and. of course, the faces ot Taft and Bryan. The candqi-dates were received with singular cold-ni ss, not evoking the slightest applause lor a long nine.

Bryan burned out and disappeared before his rival, however, and the audience, taking this as an omen, ap plauded. There is no space even for the names of the special devices which revealed the ingenuity of tho wizard. There were dozens of them and they Kept great audience ot people, accustomed to Pain shows, in a m.st of dazed and admiring wonder. It was a great night for Brighton.
