 gold but of something equally valuable. The feverish and totally distinctive life of this hotbed of specula- 

 tion offers to the literary man a treasure house of the most fruitful material. Mr. Leffevre, for his ''Wall

Held ¥ot Ofdeirs 



Stories of Railroad Life. By FRANK H. SPEARMAN 



Like I. K. Friedman and Edwin Lefevre, so, too, does Frank H. 

 Spearman teach us that we need go no farther than the very centers of 

 commercial life in search of the heroic. His new collection of Railroad 

 Stories, under the title ** Held for Orders," describes thrilling 

 incidents in the management of a mountain division in the far West. 

 They are good stories, exciting, yet wholesome and thoroughly American. 

 A number of the characters — ^Jimmy the Wind, McGrath, McTerza, etc. — 

 are already familiar to magazine readers. (^Price $l.JO.)
