HERE AND THERE.

Mr. Hugh Kinsmill has written a life of the late Frank Harris, whoso biography of Bernard Shaw, publishod last year, created a sensation. • The book will bo published by Jonathan Cape. An enterprising English journal has initiated a " buroau " for supplying writers of detective fiction with exact information on any legal, medical, or other professional or technical questions.

The " Memoirs of R. H. Bruce Lockhart," announced by Putnam, will give frank, first-hand descriptions of Lenin and Trotsky in 1913, and an intimato revelation of the author's own picturesque personality and career.

Since writing " Beneath Tropij Seas," Dr. William Beebe has been conducting scientific researches in tho Bermudas, and the results will bo given in a new volume to be published by Putnam, with tho title, " Nonsuch. Island.''

"Swinburne: A Literary Biography," by Dr. Georges Lafourcade, will be puljlished shortly. Tho large collection of Swinburniana in the possession of Mr. H. T. Wise and others has enabled the biographer to introduce much new material.

" Three on Four Wheels " is the litlo of a new book by W. It. Calvert, of " Sorrowstones " fame. It tells of a motor tour of discovery through England and Wales. It will bo published by Putnam.
