"Birds OF North America" he painted his
birds life size, and there is in them life
and action which has never been sur
passed. His tints are of the most beauti-
ful, and the birds OF his book are SO
beautiful and true to nature that they
seem to be the birds OF heaven. His
critic and biographer in the ninth edition
of the Encyclopedia Britannica" says
that Audubon's drawing is not true. II
this is true, then only the eye of the
keenest critic can detect the fault. The
pupil Of David may have erred OCCASION
ally in his drawing, but he never erred in
his instinct of grace and beauty.
Audubon's life was passed mostly
amidst the scenes OF nature, for he was
the child OF nature. In his wanderings
and journeyings he met with many adj
ventures, and once lodged in tla cabin
of veritable Meg Merriles, am had it
not been for the warnings of an Indian
who was also there, his earthly career
might have been terminated in n lone
cabin in the heart OF the forest.
His "Ornithological Biography" is his
best known work, but in this his figures ol
birds are painted on scale. In connec-
ton with the Rev. Mr.. Bachman he got
out work on the "Quadrupeds OF North
America" but this work never had the
same fame that his bird works enjoyed.
America has no filter name to whom to
erect monument than that Of John
James Audubon.

JOHN j. AUDUBON.

Word comes that movement il on
foot in New Orleans to erect a monu-
ment to the memory OF John James Au-
dubon, the ornithologist. Although Au-
dubon was not the first OF American
ornithologists, still his fame is greater
than any who preceded him or succeeded
him. His fame rests upon his artistic
work rather than upon his scientific
work. In scientific accomplishments
it is doubtful whether he was
the equal OF Wilson or the SUI
perior of Nuttall. When compared to
such ornithologsts as Cassin. Baird,
Brewer and Ridgway he pales into insig-
niicance. Yet this is more owing to the
undeyeloped state in which the science
Of ornithology was in his day than any
other cause. Perhaps the most purely
scientific work on ornithology ever pub
lisled in America is Vol. IN. OF the Pa
cific Railroad Survey Reports, and which
was the work OF Prof. S. f. Baird. But
since then the science has advanced rap
idly. and the rules for classification have
been much modified, while the system OF
nomenclature has undergone complete
revolution. So complete has this revolu-
ton been that the tri-nomial system,
which is almost universal in America,
has received the distinctive appellation
OF the American system. In Europe
it does not obtain TO any considerable ex-
tent. The advocates of the system say
1t makes almost as much OF departure
and advance in science as the bi-nomial
system oil Linneus did. But this is very
doubtful To show the great advance
that has been made in the science and
study of ornithology, it is only necessary
to compare the first and second editions
of DIR. Elliot Coues "Key to North Amer
lean Birds, and the first edition OF that
work only appeared in 1872, and the sec
ond within a year or two. Audubon
does not belong to this school, but
there is not one American orni-
biologist to-day whose fame is so
assured as is that OF Audubon. But his
fame will rest upon his art. In his

MAIN STREET.

The city authorities are having the mud
scraped up on Main street and carried
away. This is very good work and one
for which the people will feel grateful.
There is just one serious objection to this
cleaning off Of the mud, and it is the fact
that the mud that is now being carried
away was placed on Main street as gravel
to fill up the holes and ruts on the street
about three months ago. This, OF course,
makes an exchange of mud and
gravel very lively, and exchange
is the life OF commerce. When the
street is cleared OF the mud now on it, it
will practically be where it was when
the gravel was placed upon it some three
months ago. The putting of the gravel
upon the street and hauling it of as mud
is all dead work, and the taxes expended
in doing this work is so much money
thrown away. The same thing occurs
annually, but Main street is never in
decent condition in the summer OF
winter. 1t is the chief business street OF
the city, and the taxes paid upon Main
street property constitute q very large
proportion OF the city's revenue. Why
does not the city either flag it, cobble it,
or macadamize it? AT first this would be
quite expensive, but when once done il
would be done for many, many years,
and the street would always be in good
repair, and the cost of keeping it in repair
would be but nominal. Will the City
Council give the matter the attention ii
deserves? The present manner of keep.
ing the street is unsatisfactory always,
and the money expended OH it is thrown

Senator Doiph's bill, introduced in the
senate last Tuesday to repeal the timber cul-
ture, pre-emption and desert land acts, pro-
vides that in place of these modes of enter
ing land, all persons entitled under the laws
to make homestead entry shall be entitled
to enter a section or less of desert or noun
tain lands. Such lands are defined as all
lands exclusive of timber and mineral lands
which will not produce agricultural crops
without irrigation, and all lands which are
so mountainous: and rough that they cannot
be cultivated. It fnrther provides that any
forty acre tract of which three-fourths as
desert or mountainous, shall be desert or
mountainous land.

that lots of money is to be made out of the

thought, will have great influence with
democratic members of congress, and grease
the way in both houses for the passage OF
heavy appropriations. 1t is barely possible
that our great coast upholders have ascer-
tanned that Mr.. Cleveland does not take
quite SO much interest in their schemes as
they would like to have him, and for this
reason they have invoked the voice of Mr..

note that the chestnut horse Bazaar, by
Jack Malone, dam by Ivy Leaf, by imported
Australia, from Bay Flower, by Lexington,
died recently a Honolulu. He was owned
at the time of his death by the Miles
Brothers, who purchased him of Mr..
Pritchard, paying $4,000 for the horse.
Bazaar was bred at WOODBURY., by r. A.
Alexander, foaled 1878, and in his racing
days was a good performer. As a three
year-old he won at mile and quarter in
2:09ls; ran second to Aristidcs, two miles
and half, won in 2:471s; won mile heats in
1:4324, 1:46k, and at two miles in 3:45h .
he was then brought to this coast, and as a
four-year-old started twice, but was over
matched, being beaten by Mollie Mccarthy
at four-mile heats, and by Lady Amanda at
mile heats. He did not start afterwards
and owing to the retirement of Mr.. Pritchard
from the turf. the horse disappeared from
public view. His death will be a serious
