This theme of the reformed criminal being confronted by his past when he has set his hand to good works is as old as Jean Valjean and as young as Jimmy Valentine. In each case it has been as genuine as the character about whom it revolved, and no more so. Unfortunately, Phil Durgan in "We The People" is not sufficiently tangible as a character to let us judge of this. In action he is at best merely a hero, and in the cross-examination of the third act, a hero somewhat at a loss for smart things...
...Friends" tells of a young clerk with an "almost Apollic hand," "a thin nose," a "wide nare," and "unplumbed eyes," who reluctantly wins the friendship of a fellow clerk--and proves to be a girl (as the clever reader has discovered some months in advance of the hero). The story lacks novelty, probability and power. "The Process" appears to be just such a tale as no young man should try to tell, a tale outside the author's experience and beyond the present reach of his imagination. The style is a little too deliberately jaunty...

...film-flammers are with us again, book-agents, pedlars, calendar contractors and all; and the notorious calendar man has against made a contract with two eager young students. Fortunately one of them has not yet secured his bondsman's signature and may still withdraw; but the other one seems liable to find in store for him the same trouble that previous innocents have had before him. The worst of it is that, after the loss has been sustained, there will be no recovering from the confidence man, for he will have fulfilled his contract to the letter. For three...
