How Nearly Bret Hartc's Story was

From the New York Sun.
"And so you were the originator of
the Overland Monthly Magazine and
really stood sponsor for Bret Harte? /
said to Mr.. Roman, of San Francisco.
Eyes, sir. Like some of your prOmi-
nent eastern publishers, felt that |
must own and run magazine. So l
started the Overland Its early life
was struggle, more particularly owing
to its want of an editorial head. made
several trials, and finally Mr.. Harte's
name was suggested to me. He came
by appointment, and at the very moment
was considering change of die for
the cover. The cut representing griz-
Fly standing alone without surroundings
seemed so bare of suggestion that had
determined on some alteration. My
partner and chief clerk made several
sketches, but they failed to please me.
So intent were we on this subject that
Mr.. Harte was neglected after recOg-
milton. Then, as a matter of easy in
PRODUCTION to the business he and were
to discuss, called his attention to our
want, never imagining that he could
help us out. What was my surprise
when, on taking pencil, he simply
drew two lines, placing our grizzly on
the Northern Pacific railroad. The die
needed no other finish. 1t seemed an
inspiration, and | thought if he were SO
apt in this particular, what might he
be capable of in Illuminating the inside
pages of my magazine.
From that moment he had my full
confidence. After a little talk [ con-
cluded an agreement with him to fur.
nish an article month, and to gener.
ally superintend the magazine. The
preliminaries of that month over, and
his opening article furnished, he and ]

THE PIN.

Only, pin, vet calmly it lay
On the tufted floor in the light or DAY,
AND 1t shOne sererely feir and bright,
Rejecting back the MONDAY hgct.
Only q boy; yet he saw that pin,
And his face assumed fiendish grin;
He stoOped for a while, with look intent,
Till he and the pin allke were DEM.
Only a chair; but upon its seat
A WelI-benf pin found safe retreat;
Nor had the keenest eye discerned
That heavenward its point was turned.
Only man; bus he CHANGED 20 drop
Upon that chair, when fizz-bang-pop!
He leaped lie cork from out a bottle,
And opened wide b 8 valve de throttle.
Only a yell. though an honest one,
1t lacked the element of fun;
And boy and man, and pin and chair,
In wild confusion mingled there.
