' THE? SETH BOOK.
The Author of ("The Heavenly Twins "
JVrjtes Another Novel.
“Madame” Sarah Grand, for some-
how We do not say “Mrs.” Sarah Grand
has, as far as the name goes, a. kind of
imperative sound, because it is associ-
ated with that pompous King Louis
VXIV., called in history “le Grand.” " '
If Mme. Sarah Grand as a. writer of.
very remarkable romances is known to
the world, her individuality is not.
Francis Elizabeth Cook was born in
England, and, strange to say, her fam-
ily were Irish Quakers:
was spent in Yorkshire. At a very
early age she’ married an officer in the.
English Navy, who was
with five children.
she followed her husband’s fortunes
SARAH GRAND.
_. and spent her young married life in va-
rious foreign countries, As a girl she
wrote verse and stories. Her first ac-
cepted story was for an English juve-
nile publication, “Aunt Judy.” Sarah
Grandas a pen name she assumed at
the start. “Ideala” was published in
1888, followed by.“Singularly Deluded.”
There is good evidence that although
at the outset her fiction drew attention,
Sarah Grand found some difficulty in
placing “The Heavenly Twins” with a
publisher. In 1893 the fastidious Spec-
tator wrote a fullcolumn about. “Ide-
ala,” and in the same year The London
Chronicle gave “Singularly Deluded"
muchpraise. This latter book was
published by the Blackwo'ods. The ro-
mance which brought the author most
conspicuously before the public Was '
“The Heavenly Twins,” issued first by
Cassell in 1893. Sarah Grand’s last
work is “The Beth Book,” just issued
by the Messrs. D. Appleton & Co.
Salah Grand is a remarkably hand-
some woman, with light hail, blue
eyes, and of a commanding presence .
The name she has selected is the one
used excluSively by those who are 'hel
intimates, and she signs . “Sarah
Grandt” to all her correspondence.

BOY COVNFESSES MURDER} '
V ‘latiiu'e'l Henderson Tells How He‘ Hacked
Young Lockyear to Pieces.
Ph iladIelimia, Jan. 19.—”I killed. Peter
401 “ycal, ' was the startling confes-
ic‘n made. yesterday by Samuel Hen-
lc:._ on the 15— —year- -01d degenerate, who
naked young Lockyear I«to pieces.
"Il‘lzat made me do it I-cann'ot tell. I_
vas always fond of reading stories of
lesse James and about those tellers in
be M? est Of course, my mother didn’ t
.111ch anything about this, because I
ays hid the books, and when she
naked me if 'I ever read such things I
told her no,. tand she believed me.
“Last Friday I was coming along the
.treet, when I saw Percy Lockyear and
Willie Anderson. I said: ‘Hello, boys!
Where-are you going?’ They told me
they were out to play,
if they would come to the woods I
would cut them ‘piggies.’
:vh'at ‘piggies.’ are. We use them to
' play a. game with.
“I ‘d' ’t know how it was, but just
then t e thought came- into. my mind
that my chance had come. Well, we
:rot (To-.11 to the woods, and I grabbed
Percy, and he screamed ‘Oh, oh!’ He
:aid: Let me go!’ I stabbed him, and
he tried to wiggle out of my arms. My.
but he'seemed scared! It was as good
as the Wild VVe'st.
‘He made so much noise, and I was
so excited to think that at last ‘I had
killed my man,’ that I stabbed him
again and again. I don't know how
many times. but he bled a lot.
“After I had stabbed him, I thought
to myself, ‘the cops 11 get on to me if
they find his body.’ This got me kinder
scared so I tied a handke1 chief around
his throat and dragged him to the
stream. When I threw him in'a whole
lot of little bubbles came up.
“I looked at him for awhile, and then
I said to myself: ‘Sam, you have killed
you1 man’ With that I thought I
might want to find the body again, so
I put the heavy stones on the back of
his head and behind his knees. Then
I knew his body would stay where I
left it. and I went home.“
During the 11 hole of his narrative,
thrilling as it was, from beginning to
end. the boy remained cool and col-
lected, and never'once expressed regret .
for his cruel act. His only sorrow
seemed to be that he had not killed the
other boy as well.
