Y, everybody who ever lived in San Fran- cisco will remember John Washington, the newspaper man. He is not the original person who objected to the lie as a means of self-preservation, but there is neverthe- less a trace of the old George stock in him. He is here in New York now and watches one of the most valuable industries under the eye of the city. His stand is at the Bat- tery and every pound of debris that leaves the dock and is carried away to be care- fully searched is subject to his orders, In other words he is the chief inspector of the debris wharves. The privilege of having the exclusive right to reap the valuable materials that are found in the debris and garbage of this city is purchased at the magnificent sum of over $100,000 annually. All sorts of things are found in the loads of stuff that are carted away, and up to the time it is taken charge of by the contrac- tor who puts in the highest bid it isunder the care of the city and Mr. Washington. He has not forgotten that the glad hand is a popular thing out West and he ex- tends it to anybody who ever saw San Francisco Bay or the Rocky Mountains, One of the best compliments I ever heard paid California came from the lips of Homer Laughlin Sr., the head of the Laughlin China Works at East Liverpool, Ohio, where one William McKinley hails from. Mr. Laughlin’s son Homer has just returned from the Stanford Uni- versity, where he graduated as a chemist and engineer. “My son has finished his schooling,” said Mr. Laughlin, “and comes back with nothing but praise for California and the university. I was glad to hear him speak so highly of that institution and the State generally, as I toid him when he went there I was giving him the best I knew of in America. I have lived theres ja great deal off and on and own considerable property in different parts of the State. I made a- careful investigation of the educational facilities of Stanford University and found the faculty to be equal to that of any other academy of learning in America. The climate all the year around was of the best, and I felt that my son would ap- preciate my selection by the time he: fin- GALIFORNIANS IN NEW Aug. 2.—Most ! ished. From all accounts hedoes. I hear nothing but California from him now. He wants to return and grow up with the country, believing that in time it is destined to overpower the Fast from a standpoint of advanced civiiiza- tion andopportunities for progression. If everybody who visits and lives in Califor- nia feels as warm toward it as both myself and son it will be the best advertised State in the Union before long, and I hope itis."” Mr. Laughlin is a widely traveled Ameri- can, and when he sends his son to the western edge of the United States to be educated it indicates that he has reasons that are founded on something with a strong conviction behind it. Eduardo Cucuel, the young Californian who has just returned from Paris and the art schools, has accepted an offer from the Herald 10 join its staff of illustrators. He is also drawing some pictures for Serib- ner’s, and in time hopes to add to the already long list of Pacific Coasters who have distinguished themselves in New York. Harry Day, son of ex-Supervisor Day of 8an Francisco, is expected to arrive here from France on the next steamer. He will spend a little while taking in the sights and the ‘“‘out-of-sights’ before getting back to the Bay. Old-timers will doubtless remember T. F. Robertsor of San Francisco. He be- longed to the early-day school of good fel- laws, and was chief clerk: of the Mint ic 1878.. We ran across each other not long ago, and he rushed me to s seat in the 8t. Cloud Hotel, and nearly taiked an arm off me. I had to reeall the history of San Francisco for many yvears back and tell it to him over and over ageain. ‘He seemed unable to fill up on news and im- ‘pressed me several times with the fact that there was no place lie the Pacific Coast. You find this so often in residents of that part of the country that it finally becomes 8 novelty to see a man who does not want to get back on the first train. Mr. Robertson thinks he has lived the best part of his life among the newspaper crowd who used to cluster around the old Press Club and down at the end of Mont- gomery street. When he reverts to those days the tearsalmost well up in his eyes. YORK. He hopes eventually to get back there and live it over again. When one considers what changes can take place, it is not sur- prising that Irwin Stump, now a million- aire, should atone time have been a clerk under Mr. Robertson in the United States Mint at something like $200 a month. Frank McGuire, the newspaper man who made such an excellent showing at the Chicago and St. Louis conventions, where he represented THE CaLr, arrived in New York the beginning of the present week. He had the odor of Democracy all over him, having passed through Wash- ington and shaken the hand of Mr. Cleveland, from which he * accumu- lated the odor of angle worms and Buzzards Bay sturgeon. Mack acts just as though he had kissed Grover's kids and walked on the grass like Carl Brown and General Coxey. He has lost none of that California freshuess and vivacity that has made him the energetic newspaper man that he isto-day. After taking a trip into Canada to visit his father, who is the Collector of Customs at Ontario, he will return to New York and use his talents to distinguish himself here. ‘What appears to be the matter with the California cherry-growers? There is a wild yeil here for white cherries and mar- ketmen cannot get enough of them. Every fruit-supply house in this city is in constant recelpt of orders for California cherries and there does not seem to be half sufficient to supply the rapidly grow- ing demand. From one pointin the harbor recently I counted the word California twelve times. In every instance it was on some ware- house or manufactory. There is not an- other State in the Union so well repre- sented. The word California greets the visitor's eyes immediately upon entering the barbor and is aimost as prominent as Bartholdi’s statue. At any rate it covers a wider range of territory. Miss Virginia Jackson, a niece of Col- onel Jackson of the sub-treasury of San Francisco, is in Brooklyn visiting friends. Miss Jackson has made quite a reputation as an actress and will doubtless accept an engagement here when the season opens, Bos Davis.

White Wings That Never Grow Weary and the Joys of the Picnic Groves. A jolly party of Mint employ es enjoyed an outing and clambake last Sunday. Camp was pitched in a pretty grove near San Bruno _ea_rly in the morning, and shortly afterward juicy steaks and other viands were broiling merrily on several fires. Liquid refreshments had not been forgotten, and the day’s festivities were inaugurated with the burial of “dull care,” genial Joe McArale officiating in the capacity of high priest during that impressive cere- mony. Care being disposed of, the fun commenced. Tom Sweeney gave a humorous exposition of his views on the all-absorbing question of 16 to1; J.J. Terry sang, Morris and Pless played the banjo and guitar, while Jim McClure, with his inimitable impersonations, kept the boys convulsed with laughter. During the day one of the members of the party produced a football, but as footballs and ¢lam chowder are not intimately associated the ball was soon relegated to an adjacent Wwagon. Late in the afternoon the piece de resist- ance, Fisher's chowder, made its appearance, and it wasichowder that only “Gene” knows how to make. To show their appreciation bouttles were quickly brought into requisition by the boys, to oe filled with the succulent creation as future souvenirs for their friends. Those present were: Eugene Fisher, Frank Luttrelle, James McClure, Neil Beggs, Joe Riordan, George Beatty, J. J. Terry, Tom Sweeney, Bud Estes, Tom Kelly, J. D. Berry, John Degan, Tony Marisch, John McArdle, Harry Pless and Grant Morris. The closing days of the campers who have been sojourning for several weeks past at Glenwood, in the Santa Cruz Mountains, were marked by an incident which proved one of the most pleasant among the many agreeable features of their stay, This was a most delect- able luncheon tendered by Messrs. Hugh Evans and Will McLaughlin of S8an Franeisco inmates of the ““He” camp, to Mr. and Mrs. D. J. Walker of Madrone camp on the day prior %o the breaking up and departure for the City of their guests of honor. The table was spread in the open air under the umbrageous branches of nature's kings of the forest, the giant redwoods and oaks. The menu comprised every delicacy of the season, and what added zest to the repast was the fact that all the toothsome viands were cooked and served by the two genial hosts, who had deco- rated the table most exquisitely with ferns, greens, etc.- Covers were laid for twelve, and a bark souvenir, whereon each guest’s name was written, was laid on their plates. The guests unanimously voted the repast fully equal to that prepared by a professional chef, and when all the wants of the inner man had been satisfied a vote of thanks and three rousing cheers were given Messrs. Evans and McLaughlin for their hospitality. After wish- ing “‘Great Evans” and his chum “long life and pros rlle;” the party se‘ylrlled, after singing “God Be With You Till We Meet Again.” Those participating in the luncheon were as follows: Mr. and Mrs. D. J. Walker, San Francisco; Mr. and Mrs. George E. Oatman, S8an Francisco; Mrs. M. J. Gladwin, San Frangisco; Kate A. Halsey, Oakland; Mrs. Frank Halsey, Oakland ; Margaret A.
