The author has succeeded in presenting in “Old Mam’selle’s Secret” a very entertain ing story. It will be found to be just the thing for an idle hour. “Thekka." By William Armstrong. J. B. Lippincott Company, publisher, Philadelphia. Cloth. Price sl. This is a story of Viennese musical life and a rather interesting story it is. The heroine is a finely drawn character and the plot of the story is well conceived. MAGAZINES. In the opening paper of the Forum for July I'rof. W. T. Hurris points out “Henry George's Mistake About Land.” The mis take is that the aggregate of the ground rent, which Mr. George propose to conilscato is a very large sum; whereas Prof. Harris reckons it ns no more tlmu S100,(XK),000 per annum, or $8 per year for each inhabitant —an increase of income which, ho suggests, “would not bring ease and luxury to those who are struggling with poverty.” The “Position of Canada” is not depicted in rose colors in David A. Poe’s article. A heavy burden of debt, due to extravagant ex penditures made for the purpose of binding the confederation together, tho general prevalence of an ex treme and corrupt partisanship, and the ?; rowing discontent of the people, are lead rig points in the picture. The writer advo cate absorption into the United States, but acknowledges that “the word ‘annexation’ is under a linn, and no Canadian statesman (lari's to avow himself in favor” of that policy. In ' ‘ Race Prejudice at Summer lie sorts,” Alice Hyneman Rhine treats t he edict of Judge Hilton regarding admissions to his hotel in Saratoga as the point of anew de parture, and sas's “a host of hotel and board ing-house proprietors throughout the State of New Y ork have followed the example set at Saratoga.” The Forum Publishing Cos., 97 Fifth avenue. New York city. In the Oaf art/for July the lighter ma teria! is of a sparkling out-of-doors charac ter. The opening paper, by Johu Bur roughs, on “Wild Flowers,” is profusely illustrated; another, by W. J. Henderson, on “The Sportsman’s Music,” giving pic tures of live game birds. A third paper, by Talcott Williams, treats of “Animal Loco motion in the Muybridge Photographs,” with a lot of drollfsh fascinating pictures exhibiting in progressive series familiar phenomena not fully seen before in nature. A humorous story, yet not without a serious conclusion, is “Sister Todhunter’s Heart,” by H. S. Edwards, with attractive genre pictures by Kemble, to which there is a foil in Mr. Boyesen’s pathetic “Crooked John,”in which the writer returns to the Norwegian field of "Gunnar” and his other early successes. The Lincoln History closes up* the Kansas troubles and discusses their corollary, the “Lincoln- Douglas Debates.” The War Series, fol lowed since the start by the closest attention of thousands, compasses this month the hun dred days of battle in “The Struggle for Atlanta,” compactly narrated by Gen. O. O. Howard. The poetry of the Century em braces from mouth to month many new con tributors and a large range of method. The Century Company, Union Square, New York city. The New Princeton Review for July pre sents a series of articles which possess in an uuusuol degreo tho quality of being inter esting; the subjects discussed are not only varied bnt entertaining. Mr. R. W. Gil der, the editor of the Century Magazine, emphasizes “Certain Tendencies in Current Literature,” and interprets them as indica tions of the thirst for life and realty in art. Mr. S. G. W. Benjamin outlines the devel opment of “American Art Since the Cen tennial.” “The Theory of Prohibition” is examined at length and in a thoroughly candid spirit by Mr. Sanford H. Cobb, Madame Blaze de Bury contributes a very fresh and interest ing resume of the “Recollections of the Due de Broglie.” Prof. T. W. Hunt discusses the subject of “Literary Criticism” with special reference to American letters. “The Minister’s Factotum” is a capital piece of character study. Miss Hapgood, who has done such good service in the translation of Russian literary masterpieces into English, (gives Tolstoi at his best in “Sevastapol in May.” A. C. Armstrong & Son, New York city. The North American Review for July has for its leading article a paper by Henry George on “The New Party.” Mr. George holds that the old parties of hack politics are dead, and that the party of political economy is now in order. “Why am Ia Free Religionist?’’is answered by Rev. O. B. Frothingnam. Hon. George W. Julian, who was appointed Surveyor General of New Mexico by President Cleveland to look after the “land stealing” in that part of the coun try, contributes startling facts and figures on the subject. Arthur Richmond, not much troubled, apparently, by recent strictures on himself, does Hon. Jamas Russell Lowell the honor of addressing him a second letter, specially de picting his conduct, a short time ago, in Chi cago. Ignatius Donnelly concludes his pa per, “The Shakespeare Myth.” “Johnson, Grant, Seward, Sumner” are portrayed by Gideon Welles, according to his view of them and their day, in two very remarka ble posthumous letters, hitherto unpub lished. North American Review, No. 3 East Fourteenth street, New York city. “Military Brotherhood” opens the July Outing and leads one naturally to the first article entitled “On tho March,” a neat and vivid picture of a soldier’s experiences. The paper is well illustrated by half a dozen clever pen and ink sketches by Remington. Ripley Hitchcock recounts iri a humorous vein a landsman’s trials while on a yachting cruise. “Twelve Days Without a Sunset” is the title of James Ricalton's contribution to this number, and is a link in the chain of his cheap travel series. Mr. Ricalton is a keen observer of men and things. “Fidele” is a capital bit of horse racing, well told, short and to the point. On the bicycle ever wheeling, wheeling on ward, Thomas Stevens will be found at Meshed the Holy. W. J. Henderson winds up all there is to be said about “Long Branch as a Summer Resort.” Outing Cos., limited, 140 Nassau Jstreot, New York city. The July Wide Awake has an interesting article on what sort of a boy George Wash ington was, with another hatchet story as good as the cherry tree story, and more human. Charles Egbert Craddock’s story, begun in the June number, halts at a. coon hunt. The other story-tellers stop to take breath as they can. There is more of what goes on inside of a bank, a peep at the Har vard Annex, a boy misses his Fourth of July, and a picture story of animals and their animal friends. D. Lothrop, Boston. The Sanitarian for Juno is a splendid number. Tho article on “The Relations of Drinking Water to Typhoid Fever,” by Dr. Dowling Benjamin, of Camden, N. J., is alone well worth the price of the number. Another article that will attract attention is that of Horace W. Conrad, on “The Health of the Negroes in the South.” 113 Fulton street, New York. The Church Magazine for July has for its opening article “The Heroism of Christ,” by Rev. Thomas A. Hyde. The subject is ably handled, and the article is well worth reading. There are a number of other articles that possess great merit. Hamersly & Cos., 1510 Chestnut street, Philadelphia, Pa. The English Illustrated Magazine for July is exceptionally bright and interesting. The frontispiece, “Chatter,” is a very pretty picture. The fiction and short articles are well up to the standard of this publication. McMillan & Cos., 113 Fourth avenue, New York city. Tlie Bookbuyer for July has an interest ing summary of homo and foreign literature for the past month. It has also a superb illustration of the Mayflower-Galatea con test of 1886. Charles Scribner’s Sons, New York. No. 2of Battles and Leaders of the civil war o'f the Century’s war articles, contains fine portraits of distinguished Southerners who took part in the civil war. The Cen tury Cos., Union Square, New York. The Atlanta Medical and Surgical Jour nal for July has considerable interesting original matter and a number of valuable reports. James P. Harrison & Cos., At lanta, Ga. The Swiss Cross tor July is an excellent number. Tho articles are both interesting and instructive. The Swiss Cross, 47 La fayette Place, New York. CALIFORNIA RELIC3. Treasures Displayed at the Pioneer Museum In San Francisco. /Vint the St. Louis Republican. “Yes, indeed, that little howitzer is a can non which has occupied no mean place in the early history of California.” So spoke the veteran journalist, H. B. Livingstone the other day. as he leisurely rocked to and fro his comfortable chair In the luxuriously appointed Museum Hall of the Pioneers’ hiMkling at San Francisco. Tho remark wiff addressed to a reporter who had been examining with curious interest a small bravt 4 pounder, inscribed with Russian characters and mounted on a highly pol ished wooden frame. “That is the Sutter gun,” continued the retired journalist. “It was cast in St. THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, JULY 4. 1887. Petersburg in 1804, and later on was pre sented by tho Czar to the Russian colony at Fort Ross, in what is now Sonoma county. Fort Ross, you know, was established in 1811. Well, finally the gun was given to Sutter by the commandant of the fort, and was then mounted on the wall of Fort Sutter. When the flag of the United States was hoisted over the fort at sun rise on July 12, 1846, this venerable cannon roared right lustily in honor of the event. Subsequently tho gun was used by Com. Stockton in his advance from San Pedro to Los Angeles, and it played a conspicuous part in the engagement at San Pasqual Dec. 6, 1846, and again at Isis Angeles on Jan. 8 and 9, 1847. The gun was then transferred to Col. Mason, of the First United States Dragoons, and he returned it to Sut ter. who gave it to the Pioneer Society. What wonderful changes have been wrought on this coast since that cannon was landed here. Over there in tho corner are the horns of the ox that dragged that gun from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles in '46. He was a sturdy old fellow, was that ox, for he died a peaceful death at the age of 27 ..... 71 years. 1 Meanwhile the reporter had espied be neath a table a small iron chest or treasure box, the key In the lock, as if inviting the rifling of the reminiscences within. “\V hat is that. Mr. Livingstone;the chest of Monte Cristoi” “Well, well, if there isn’t the Jenkins box! That little box has an exciting his tory. Thirty-six years ago, on Juno 10, that iron box was in the shipping office of Virgin & Cos., on Long wharf, A man by tho name of John Jenkins picked it up and started off with it. He was seen, pur sued and captured, but not before he had thrown the box into the bay. That was a sorry deed for Jenkins, for that very day the vigilantes took charge of him and determined to make an example of him that should strike terror in the hearts of the lawless hordes thronging the city. Jen kins was tried by the vigilantes, convicted and sentenced to death, and that night was hanged to a beam in the old adobe build ing on the plaza, relays of men holding the rope all night. The vigilantes didn’t know anything about a bill ot excep tions or a stay of execution of judgment pending an appeal to the Supreme Court. The box was presented to the pioneers by H. W. Neal and W. E. Domett, two of the oldest pilots in the harbor. That clock over there was used by the vigilantes of ’56 in their hall, and that break in the frame was done by a bullet.” While the pioneer editor had been re counting this tale of the troublous vigi lante times the reporter had kicked up a surveyor’s chain, rusty with age and bat tered with service. In itself the chain was nothing, but the inscription upon it, though terse, established the historical value of the relic beyond a doubt. The chain, so the in scription said, was used by Jasper O’Farrell in laying off the city of San Francisco in 1844. O’Farrell was a State Senator, and from him the present O’Farrell street takes its name. Close by the chain was placet! a coffee pot once used by tho millionaire James Lick. “Here is a relic, Mr. Reporter, that recalls our debt of gratitude to Lafayette, for it is a slat from a door < >f the ship Cadmus, which brought that nobleman to America on the occasion of his visit in 1834. The vessel was broken up in this harbor in 1858.” “That nell over there,” continued Mr. Livingstone, pointing with his cane to a fire alarm bell, “was the first fire-alarm bell ever in this city. It was the property of the old Monumental, No. 6, Volunteer Fire Com pany. The real interest lies in the fact that this ws the bell used by the vigilantes in 1856. It sounded the death knell of Casey, Cory and other malefactors executed by that memorable committee.” “I suppose this shovelful of dirt has some historical value or it would not lie here, Mr. Livingstone,” remarked the reporter as he pointed out his find. “Historical value! It ought to have some for Californians, for it is the first shovelful of dirt thrown when ground was broken Jan. 8, 1863, for what is now tho Central Pacific railroad. You notice that piece of a railway tie by it? Well, that is a bit of the last tie lakl[atJlTomontory Point May 10, 1869, when the road was finished. San Francisco had a great celebration that day. Cannons boomed, bells were tolled, the mili tary turned out in procession with civilians, and orators aired their eloquence. We thought California capable of anything, and 1 think we are all of the same opinion still. “You see,” said Mr. Livingstone, “that various articles are now in close juxtaposi tion that were widely enough apart a few years ago. For instance, that wooden cap you now have your hand on was the top of the liberty pole that stood on the plaza from 1850 to 1861, and there just behind you is a piece of timber from the Northeast comer of the cabin occupied by the ill-fated Don ner party in 1846, away up amid the snows of the Sierras. That, fragment of wood is from the ship Sparrow Hawk, wrecked off Cape Cod in 1826, and that other chip is from a fragment of the brig Natalia, wrecked at Monterey, Oct. 14, 1834. This last vessel is said to have been the one on which the great Napoleon escaped from Elba. That roughly-fashioned desk which takes up so much room in the corner was used by Gen. Grant when, as a lieutenant, ho was sta tioned at Humboldt. Traditions did say that Grant made the desk with his own hands, but when he was out here he knocked that romance all to pieces. Why,” said Mr. Livingstone with a laugh, “Grant vowed that he never could make even a slid, let alone so ambitious a piece of architecture ns a desk. The military coat hanging near the desk was, however, really and trmy, as the children say, worn by Grant at the surren der at Vicksburg. The straps on it were those worn by him during the Virginia campaigns.” OFFICIAL MORTUARY REPORT Of the City of Havannali for Ihe Week End ing Friday, July 1, 1887.
