ttPRIMEVAL CALIFORNIA" is the
theme of two Californians for an illus
trated paper to be published in the
October Scribner The writer is Mr..
Charles Warren Stoddard, and the
artist Mr.. Julian Rix. The region
described is among the red woods of
Sonoma county. Some Of the best
Wood-cuts in this article are by young
men who last year competed with " first
work. for the ScIibner prize for wood
engraving which, by the way, is to be
continued under The Century Magazine.
PETERSoN's MAGAZINE for October
is unusually good, even for that in
comparable lady's book. The steel en-
craving, " Don't Be Scared, !" is one of
exceptional beauty; and SO is the
colored, steel fashion plate, with its
five, charming-looking, eXquisitely-
dressed ladies. There are two colored
patterns, with designs for fans, line
Of decoration that is now all the rage.
The historical novelet, The News
From Yorktown" 7" which has attracted
so much attention, is appropriately
concluded in this number, in time for
| the q Yorktown Centennial y
FRANK LEsLIE's POPULAR MONTH
LY for October is an exceedingly bril-
liant number Of that magazine. The
leading article by Mr.. Nugent Robin
son, entitled, I" Annapolis Naval Acad-
emy,'' gives a most interesting account
of that institution, and the fourteen
admirable illustrations greatly increase
the interest. Among the other promi-
nent articles are: Sport on the
Other Side of the Continent - Bees
and their Folklore Fashionable
Resorts on the Mediterranean" all
profusely illustrated. The department
of fiction contains continuation OF
Frank Lee Benedict's great serial, " A
Late Remorse," and short stories OF
great merit by Mrs. M. a. Denison and
other talented writers. A single copy
is furnished for 25 cents, sent postpaid,
and the yearly subscription is So. Ad-
dress, Frank Leslie, 53, 50 and 81 Park

Garfield.

James Abram Garfield is dead. The
assassin's bullet has robbed the country
of wise, faithful and beloved Chief
Magistrate, and a noble work, nobly
begun, is unfinished. The weeks Of
wavering between hope and despair are
at an end. Hope is buried in the grave.
God in His wisdom has seen fit that
the prayers of the people shall be un-
answered, and the nation mourns the
loss of noble son. He was at the
head Of the nation but a few months
but in that brief time he won the
hearts Of his people. Their sympathies
were with him. After long and weary
waiting the country seemed to have at
last gained a Chief Magistrate who
could be great enough to be President
not alone of a party or section but of
the whole people. Then the noble
fight against corruption began, and
while the country was peaceful and
prosperous and happy the hand of the
murderer struck down the man who
had risen above party to do his duty.
and the grand work so grandly marked
ont is left for another to execute.
The nations loss is great-perhaps
greater than we may now realize-but
in the words Of this man, whose mem
ory will be ever treasured by the
American people: God reigns, ant
the Government at Washington still

The Gloomy White House.

The White House looks gloomy and
deserted. What a contrast to three
short months ago. Then the halls and
corridors were filled with politicians,
office-seekers and tourists, the East
Room crowded from day to day with
delegations from neighboring States,
each with grievances to ventilate or
claims to be recognized. All was life
and animation, hustle and confusion.
In the midst of all stood the great,
noble-hearted President, greeting each
visitor with friendly pressure OF the
hand and never forgetting to add a
warm smile Of welcome when the
strangers attire bespoke the humble
artisan OF the laboring woman. To
those who met President Garfield under
these circumstances the remembrance
will be cherished as one of the brightest
pages in the history Of their lives. To
day he lies a corpse in the rotunda of
that Capitol where for five years he
contended in the arena of debate as
one of the nations intellectual gladi-
ators. To the crowds which sauntered
by the White House grounds there is a
strange fascination in contemplating
the scene and many an eye is dimmed
with tears when memory recalls the
sad tragedy of July 2. Men, women
and children pause in their walk and
leaning against the iron fence gloomily
contemplate the scene with saddeneC
hearts. Base men of the world seen
to view the spot with feeling akin tt
reverence and many such, from whose
lips prayer would seem mockery
utter a fervent "God rest his soul'
as they lounge lazily along. Within
has been a busy scene to-day. Mr.
Pruden was busy during the whole
morning in filling boxes and directing
them. A large amount Of private prop
erty will go from the White House
The President had large amount 0
private papers even for a man who hat
been in public life as long as he has. al
Of them were neatly packed in whit
pine boxes and sent to the express of
fee. The house was closed to outsiders
Three workmen were busy putting tn
last touches on the heavy and hand
somely arranged decorations of tn
house. The ushers were on hand, bu
had nothing to do but wait and look on
The house looks very gloomy, both in
side and out. The arrangements whicl
had been made to lay the body in stat
. in the East Room were ended. Th
drapings of black which had been begul
were torn down, and the raised dais fo
the catafalque was removed before
had been completed. Word had bee
received that the body would be take
directly from the depot to the Capitol
and would not be even brought to th
White House. The preparations for tn
reception of the Presidents family a
the house, which were made with sue
dispatch yesterday, go for naught. Mrs
Garfield will not return to the Whit
House, but will be the guest of Mrs
Mac " Veagh, the wife of the Attorney
General, during her stay in this city,

MURDER AT CHEsTER.--Thomas
Stinson, aged 50, Of Chester, Pa, re-
tired Saturday night under the intlu-
ence of liquor and at an early hour of
Sunday morning cut his wife's throat
from ear to ear with a razor, while she
lay by his side, and then drew the wea-
pon across his own throat. His wife
sprang from the bed, the blood squirting
from the severed artery almost as high
as the ceiling, and ran toward the next
room where her daughter was sleeping,
but she only reached the door when she
fell dead. Stinson is a laborer, but has
not worked for four years, living on
the earnings Of his children. His vic
tim was a hard-working woman. He
SAYS he committed the crime because OF
jealousy and abuse, and is sorry that he
did not do it six months before. Years
ago he lived at Hockessin, on the Della
ware Western railroad, in this county,
and worked in the lime quarries at that
place. He left there about twelve years
ago, after residing there ten years OF
more. He bore an unenviable reputa-
ton for intemperance, but his wife, by
those who knew her then, is highly
