THE History of the United States, COM
piled by Fred. H. Clark, native Cali
fornian graduate of the State University
and Principal of the Los Angeles High
School, has been issued out of the State
Printing Office. The mechanical make
up of the book and the binding and ma.
terial used are credit to the State de-
partment that has performed the work.
The print is clear on good paper, and the
engravings, executed by McKeon, an ar
tist whose work compares with the best,
are exquisite productions. The arrange.
ment of the history is seluential and ex.
cellent for text book. Of course, in a
work of 432 pages, the History of the
United States, brought down from the
discovery of America by Columbus
must be almost microscopically synopti-
cal. The condensation, however, of the
early period is 80 judiciously
made as to give the pupil all
the salient points in q way that will af
ford him fair general knowledge of the
important events. Considerable space is
devoted to California, its settlement, pro-
gress and public men. AS a text book,
from a mere cursory examination of it,
we should pronounce it equal to the
wants of the public schools. We shall,
however, reserve our final judgment upon
the detail of it's contents until we have
had the opportunity Of giving it a critical
reading. As to the material used in its
manufacture and the mechanical make
up of the work itself, we have no hesita-
ton in saying that it is equal to any of
the best standard school books published
in the East. The State is doing a work
of great and lasting benefit to popular
education by supplying the public schools
with text books.

STORM PATH IN NEW JpRsry
ANOTHER CONSPIRACY.
A Large Opium Smuggling Scheme
Unearthed.

CHICAGO, August 24.--Another gigantic
conspiracy was brought to light here to-
day. 1t is an opium smuggling scheme,
the extent OF which at present writing
cannot be approximated, though if the
statements made by the Government
agents are to be believed, many persons
in all parts of the country are involved,
and many arrests may be made to-nioht
or tomorrow. To-day Treasury agents
arrested q man who registered at the
Palmer House as f. w. Brown, of New
York. In his room in house on Wa
bash avenue, whittier he had been
traced from the hotel, was found a can
vas-bound trunk and 12O pounds of
opium. For some time the officials had
been looking for quantity of opium
which was thought to have arrived in
this city from New York, instead
OF the Pacific Coast, presumably to
dodge the heavy duties imposed upon the
drug. For a month special agent has
been engaged in active search for the
stuff and about ten days ago a small
quantity of the drug was seized at Fort
Wayne, Ind. The news of the dis
covery created quite stir in the Treas
ury Department at Washington, and the
wires were kept busy with orders and
instructions to the Treasury agents here,
and at last Agent Tichenor has been sent
from Wash ington here, and has full
charge of the case. 1t was stated to-
night that the prisoner was not from New
York but from San Francisco, and that
he had been known under the alias of @.
S. Martin and G. II. Gardiner.
THE SAME OLD GARDNER.
For many wears the prisoner was in
sidered one of the shrewdest operators.
Less than q year ago he left the service,
and last February he was arrested in Op-
densburg, N. Y, on the charge of smug-
Cling opium. He was afterwards re s
leased, for reasons which were never ex-

that SO fine a set of men as the mem

would rather have them with us than
