A HE ROOCOR THE: SWORD. The King’s Gallant By ALEXANDRE DUMAS. ‘*The King’s Gallant’? is deserving of recognition, in that it is not only a noveliza- tion of the earliest of Dumas’ plays, but it marks a distinct triumph in his career. If this production is full of the rushing vigor of youth, it is because its celebrated author was but a youth when he penned it, yet it was the stepping stone which led to that upward flight wherein he was speedily hailed as the ‘‘ Wizard of Fiction.’’ It is a volume full of action with a strong plot and a truly masterful deliniation of Pearrete re te ate.
