Magazine of American His

tory,
The Magazine of American His
tory for August is model of ele-
gance, and as usual the number is
well filled with admirably writ
ten and valuable papers. DIR. Ev-
erett's Earliest American People"
touches upon theme..dear to ev-
cry antiquarian reader, and it is
so presented as to interest alike
the old and the young, the wise
and the unlearned. "England's
Struggle with the American Col
onies," by DR.. William M. Taylor,
a scholarly article of a different
character, is one of the prominent
features of the number. The en-
inent author traces the events in
England, the needless misunder-
standings, and the crude mistakes
which led to the war of the Revo-
luton, and bestowed upon the col
onies their independence, and he
does it with such skill, intelligence
and power, that fresh life is infus-
ed into the narrative, and one OF
the best condensed accounts of this
part of our history extant is the
result. Hon. j. o. Dickman con.
cludes his series of papers Of "The
Last Twelve Days of Major An
dren in this number. j. p. Dunn
Jr., contributes "The Founding OF
Post Vincennes," and Mr.. William
S. Pelletreau writes of "The Phil
Ups Patent in the Highlands" furn

Gle is a vigorous pen-picture OF

EIGaT persons were killed and six
wounded by the collision Of passen-

l4th. One of the most pathetic of
all the scenes were those attending

phan, who was being sent through
from Idaho on a second-class ticket
to relatives in Cherry creek, New
York. Edward Peltzer, a passenger
going to New York, tells this story of
her death: ~ noticed the little girl.
She appeared to be all alone. l
learned that she had been ticketed as
second-class passenger. She was
sweet-faced child, and every time /
visited the smoking car l interested
myself in her. She said her parents
were dead and she was going to Cher
ry creek to live with some relatives.
When the crash came / was in my
berth IN the sleeper and received only
a slight shock. My first thought was
of little Mary, and l rushed out of the
car and to my horror saw the smoker
all in flames. | went outside oppo-
site that part of the car where the
little one had sat, and found she had
been wedged down by the seat which
had fallen upon her. The flames
were already surrounding her, and
finding she could not be rescued, l
fed from the spot.''
