New Books Received 



An original poem by Jose Wen Alaury, 

 of Cuba, entitled "El Sueiio Fantastico," 

 is printed on fine paper, has a portrait of 

 the author, and is dedicated to the Presi- 

 dent of the Cuban Republic. It is issued 

 by Fernandez y Ca., Havana. 



A handy little volume, entitled "Aletodo 

 Practico para aprendar a escribir por el 

 Tacto," by J. Martinez, Xew York City, 

 describes a modern and scientific method 

 in the Spanish language for self-instruc- 

 tion in typewriting by the sense of touch. 



The exercises are simple, well-graded 

 and of a character to strengthen the 

 weaker fingers, as under this system all 

 the fingers are brought into use. An illus- 

 trated chart in five colors materially helps 

 the student. 



A valuable work has been received en- 

 titled "Tratado de la Fabricacion del Azu- 

 car de Caha," by H. C. Prinsen Geerligs. 

 ex-director de la Estacion Experimental 

 para la Industria Azucarera en la Isla de 

 Java, and translated into Spanish by Nico- 

 las Van Gorkum, Ingeniero al Servicio de 

 la Sociedad General Azucarera de Espaiia. 

 It has just been issued by J. H. DeBussy, 

 Amsterdam, Holland. 



It is_ a book of .337 pages, has a full al- 

 phabetical index, and, as may be imagined, 

 covers this important industry very thor- 

 oughly, dividing the subject into three 

 parts. 



The first part describes cane sugar and 

 its constituents. 



The second, its manufacture, which in- 

 cludes the extraction of the juice, its puri- 

 fication, etc. 



The third part is devoted to chemical 

 analysis, and in this section valuable tables 

 are given, which will be found most help- 

 ful in the laboratory.
