A most lamentable comedy is the title ofa powerful novelette by Mr. William AllenWhite, which begins in the September 21issue of The Saturday Evening Post, ofPhiladelphia. This absorbing serial is astudy of political hystercs—the story ofa State gone mad. The scene of the novel-ette is a Western State laboring under theburdens of a panic year. The centralfigure is a grocery store demagogue, whosehairbrained oratory captures the Stateconvention. The story rises to a heightof dramatic power and intensity rarelyequalled in the fiction of the day. «•
