T HE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1895. o = el IN WASHI *TON’S DAY. ! At a time when strained relations with ref_erencc to a popular American doctrine exist between England and her giant off- spring of the western world, and when Statesmen on either side of the ocean ad- mit the gravity of a situation that has stirred up the fires of patriotism in this country to an ominousdegree, such a work as that which, in its first installment, con- stitutes the leading feature of Harper's Magazine for Ja y—*In Washington’s —comes rather opportunely and will be widely read for the light it throws on the American colonial days; those days wherein was molded that sturdy, potent character which was destined to bring change in the history of J ter, or amalzamation of er, which should compel and com- from the old powers of the ‘ ally make the name of atitle of jt ide and honor. It was the late He ¢ who so hap- mar earth pily wedded the respective qualities of Puritan cavalier in that ideal type of Americanism, Abraham Lincoln.” The opening apters go far into the y colonial history to show the gradual evo- lutién undergone in the process of forma- 0O0ks ] i ';jnwn i without resort to generalizations. Hence | the publ tion is as important to Califor- | ia at large as to Santa Clara in particalar. The value of this laration will be appreciated when it is reflected that Santa Clara Cou son of its large extent and the g variety of its natural and | developed conditions, embraces many of | o hat distinguish | ood of States. | That is to say, among its industries may | be counted the cultivation of wine and | table grapes, prunes, peaches, | apricots, almonds and the ordinary large and small fruits of general consum tion, all grown as commercial enterprises; | the most famous quicksilver mine in the New World; stone quarries, medicinal | springs in great number and variety, and a hundred other thi Added to all the | th is a climate par- natural sources of w taking both of coast and interior condi- tions—ocean breezes tempered by an en- vironmentof high mountainsand extremes of heat and cold modified by the influence | of the near ocean. This produces a total | absence of zymotic and endemic diseases, makes the mere fact of living in the valley a continual pleasure and renders possible the remarkable variety and success of the industrial otcupations which assure the prosperity of the people. All these facts and many others are set tion of an Americ Woodrow W pietare of the sta i at the tim r of His Cour of “Those who took ial writes colo > n to mark the sharp contrast between t ns, who were no harder to hmen evers northeast ore self-contained en resorted. to by those of a c Of the newcomers to V ginia at the period of the Commonwealth, a great multitude had left England as much because they hated the Puritaisas | because they desired Virginia. “They were drawn out of that great majority at home to whom Cromwell had not dared resort to get & new parliament in tbe stead | of the one he had ‘purged.’ Many of them were of the hottest blood of the cavaliers.” It was in the years when the Common- | wealth stood and those immediately fol- lowing the Restoration that Virginia got her characterand leading gentry. “Among the rest, in the great migration came two | brothers, John and Lawrence Washington, of & stock whose loyalty was as old as the | Conquest.” | The history of this branch of the Wash- ington family is given at some length, and | attention is paid other notable families of | the Virginia colony.

From the Potomac to the uncertain border of the Carolinas she had seen her counties fill with the men who were to de- cide her destiny. Her people, close npon a hundred thousand strong, had fallen into | the order of life they were to maintain. | They were no longer colonists merely, but | citizens of a commonwealth of which they | began to be very proud, not least because they saw a moble breed of public men spring out of their own loins to feed them.” The work, which is, in reality, a new biography of Washington, will appear in monthly parts during the new year, and will doubtless take a prominent place in | our literature. Illustrations by Howard Pyle accompany the text. A SUPERB SOUVENIR. The highest point of excellence obtaina- ble by writers, engravers and painters has been touched in a superb publication en- titled “Sunshine, Fruit and Flowers,” a volume devoted to Santa Clara County, one of the garden spots of California, and jssued by the San Jose Mercury as a souv- enir. It is a book of 375 pages, 9x12 inches, is printed on heavy enameled pa- per and illustrated with 939 photo engrav- inf:s direct purpose is to exhibit the re- sources of Santa Clara County.

In the preparation of this fea- ture tributions were secured from the | ablest specialists in the various branches | of the fruit and wine industry. | The great value of the book, therefore, | apartfrom its immediate bearing on the | attractions of Santa Cl. the fact that itis an exposition of much that pertains to California in general. This is true not only of the natural re- | sources of the county and the industries of | the people, but also of the social conditions | which bave been evolved from them. It is in this light that the wisdom of making a home in California is shown in its high- est efficiency. The preparation of this volume undoubt- edly ailed heavy expense, but the low price at which it is offered is explained by this announcement from the publisher: “Through the liberality of citizens- who realize its practical value, it is sent ex- pressage paid, to any address in the United States at the following rates: In bristol- oard covers, 75 cents a copy; in leather- ette binding, $125 a copy: if tent by mail the postage is 30 cents a copy. The book is sold at the office of the Mercury, San ing.” A PASADENA AUTHORESS. Southern California in particular, and just published by Stone & Kimball of Chi- None of the stories in the book are | of California scenery or people, and its au- thoress, Grace Ellery Channing, lives more 1n the East and abroad than in California. Yet her home is in this State—the home of the Channings at Pasadena—and it was the inspiration of Soutbern Cahfornia skies that led her first to write—thatand the fact that she is the granddaughter of the father of Unitarienism and the daughter of a well-known scientist and litterateur. If there are such things as she tells about in some of these tales it is well that men and women who eat three timesa day and go warmly clothed should know about them. *“The Sister of a Saint” is the title of the book, ana_also of the first of the six stories it contains, five of which have the blue Mediterranean, where it washes the ghores of Tuscany, for a back- ground, and the simple, wretched, tragic life of the Italian peasantry for a theme. After reading the “Lucky Number” one hopes that the authoress hasoverdrawn the plcture—but bopes in vain, Tkereisa magnificent irony in the, humor it might almost be called, were it not so fearfully grim. Little Settima is the seventh daughter of a household that can afford one scant meal a day, when times are good—and nothing more. Little Settima bas the fever and loses her eye- sight. Of course, the medicines and the nursing still further reduce this one scant meal for the rest and even all the bed- clothes are carried to the pawnshop. Yet Settima, being the seventh daughter, is lucky. In the course of the tale she re- gains the sight of one eye (and has the other taken out) and becomes the proud ] and envied possessor of a cheap toy horse nd Bookma | ture. | demand. | the author, however, has been suflicient to = kers "y i g e —to.gain which any other child in the village wonld willingly have parted with both eyes. This Kindor poverty makes, in comparison, the woes of the very poor in America scem very paltry. Grace Ellery Channing, now Mrs, Walter Stetson, is truly a realist, but not of the Zola kind. She finds poetry and romance, or more often tragedy, in the simple daily life of very lowly people. More than this she has a style of composition that is un- affected and direct and yet very pleasing to the intelligence of the reader. Perhups there are too many Italian words in some of these tales, but they do not cloud the meaning nor mar the beauty to the Eng- lish reader.. They are fascinating stories— to those who do not care for the extrava- gant exploits of impossible heroes. The one story in the book that is not [talian is Puritanical in color and design—*‘The Strange Dinner Party.” Thisis perhaps the most dramatic tale in the little book, and has to do with that “ui)right and austere” character in colonial history, John Wentworth. “The Sister of a Saint and Other Stories” is a little classic and will appeal strongly to two kind of readers —those who are thoughtful and those who have a cultured appreciation of good litera- As for the workmanship of the book —that n the height of modern art and good taste. THE GYPSY CHRIST. The public delight in short stories has not lacked for a supply fully equal to the We have had short stories of all kinds and of all degrees of excellence, from the virile romances of Kipling to the weak and ineffectual tales of the host of scribblers who are prepared to write any- thing for which there seems to be a profit- able market, and the end is not yet come. Some of the best of the stories written in response to this demand have been the work of William Sharp, and the reading public will be well pleased with a volume of his works just published under the title of “The Gypsy Christ and Other Tales.” The stories deal with exceptional characters, and narrate incidents sufli- ciently extraordinary to interest the reader, even if told without any great dra- matic skill or charm of style. e art ot endow ail the tales with both of these to a marked degree, and none of them will be found either dull, weak or tedious Gypsy Curist and Other Tales,” by liam Sharp.

Pictures and descrip- tions of them are becoming numerous, and no account of the Pacific Coast, whether in the form of a guideboo]': ora volume of travels, 1s complete without them. Notwithstanding the frequency with which they have been depicted, how- ever, the public does not weary of them. Their beauty and their historic interest endow them with a perpetual dream for all cultured men and women, and it is not improbable they will eventually become almost as noted as the venerable cathe- drals of Europe. > While they have been. so often depicted, it is not often that full justice has been done them. It 1s pleasing, therefore, to note that L. Praneg & Co. of Boston have issued a series of plates giving pictures of all the missions from sketches made by the noted artist, Louis K. Harlow. They are published not only for the portfolios but as marginal mounts for framing, an as they are artistically colored as well as carefully drawn they deserve to rank among the best art works of the kind that have yet been produced in this country. They are for sale at_all artstores. Joseph H. Dorety, 1230 Eighth avenue, East Oak- land, agent for the Pacific Coast. THE LAUREATES. The yet unsettled question of England’s laureateship lends a certain interest to this work, by Kenyon West, on the different men who since the days of rare Ben Jon- son have held the position of poet-laureate. There is a long list of these, some famous, many now quite unknown to fame. The book is rather gaudily upholstered for li- brary purposes, which seems an error of judgment on the part of the publishers, as it has little else than a reference value, but the illustrations, by Frederick C. Gor- don, are of an excellent sort. [New York and London: Frederick A. Stokes Com- peny. For sale by Doxey, San Francisco.

LITERARY NOTES. “Half of the history of the world has been written in stones and blood between the sea-line and the ranging mountains,” says Marion Crawford in “A Kaleidoscope of Rome,” which will appear in the Jan- uary Century. Thisis the first of three pa- pers on Rome and the Vatican which Mr. Crawford will write and Andre Castaigne illustrate for the Century. A new illustrated holiday edition has been issued by Estes & Lauriat of Boston of Laura E. Richards’ “Melody; the Story of a Child.” The objects of the hereditary societies and military and naval orders that have sprung up in recent years, and the re- ;;mrengenu for membership, have been set orth in s pamphlet called ““Ancestry,”’ eomglled by Eugene Zieber and published by the Banks & Biddle Company of Phila- adelphia. Outing for January isa beautiful num- ber. An elegant holiday cover and many fine illustrations please the artistic eye, while this golden promise is fulfilied by the quality of the text. The world’s magazine of sport, travel and recreation never cele- brated the birth of the New Year in more charming guise. 2} The December number of the Political Science Quarterly closes the tenth volume of that publication, and accordinglv the editors present ‘A Retrospect,” reviewing briefly the main featuresin the work of the ten years. The true name of Elizabeth Hastings, the author of ““An Experiment in Altru- ism,” is Miss Margaret Pollock Sherwnod. She is an instructor in rhetoric and Eng- lish fiterature at Wellesiey College. It is reported that her clever story has reached a third edition. ‘Matthew Arnold’s Letters” have ‘met with a hearty reception, and Messrs. Mac- millan announce a second edition. The same firm will issue in January, in two volumes, with portraits, the life of Caf- dinal Manning, by E. S. Purcell, one of the important books of the new year. obert Grant’s “A Bachelor’s Christ- mas’’ has taken the publicfancy ; although but recently published it has reached a sale of 10,000 copies. Francis Wilson, writing of his friend, the late Eugene Field, in_the Philistine, says: *‘Next tochildren, Field loved books, and the last page of manuscript he ever wrote was upon the ‘Love Affairs of a Bib- liomaniac’; “the book he thought was the effort of his life.” This book is now on vress of the Messrs. Scribner, and will be published as soon after Christmas as it can be got ready. Apropos of Mr. Field, the presses of the Messrs. Scribner have been kept busy ever since he died in printing new editions of his poems. The social side of Parliamentary life is set forth by Mrs. Humphry Ward in her new novel in the Century. With the dinner- parties in Parliament buildings and open- air receptions on the Thames Embank- ment, it presents a picturesque contrast to American Congressional customs. Mr. Marion Crawford’s novel, “‘A Cigar- ette-maker’s Romance,” is being drama- tized. The fact that the action only covers thirty-six hours makes the task of drama- tization a specially easy one. Macmillan & Co. announce a work on ‘‘Alternating Currents and Alternating Current Machinery,” by Dugald C. Jack- son, B.8., C.E., professor of electrical en- gineering in the University of Wis- consin. The leading article in Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly for January upon ‘‘Great Ship Canals.” by Arthur Vaughn Abbott, C.E., describes the world’s principal ar- tificial waterways of the present day, in- cluding the new Baltic, the Manchester, and_the Corinth canals of Europe, and the Welland, the Sault Ste. Marie, and the Harlem, in America. The Sense of Hearing. Of the five senses with which human na- ture is gifted, that of hearing seems to be more constantly increasing in value than any of the others. This may be accounted for by the fact that in the progress of sci- ence of late years such important inven- tions as the telegraph, telephone and phonograph all depend upon the hearing for their: very existence; and when this sense of hearing is educated by long prac- tice in these and other directions, very im- portant and surprising results have been attained. By way of illustration, the tele- graph operator can, by sound, recognize an acquaintance at the key who is sending a message from a_distance, simply by his or her style of sending, on the same prin- ciple that one can recognize another’s handwriting with which they are familiar by sight, while to the ordinary observer the clicking of the sounder would be the same, no matter how many changes were made in the senders.
