NOTE AND COMMENT.

subscriber, writing from Pike City
asks: Where was John Wilkes Booth
when ne shot Abraham Lincoln 2" He was
in private box at Ford's Theater, Wash
ington, D. G. The same writer asks the
number of legal holidays in year" I'm
der an Act of the last Legislature, APP
proved March 1, 1889, the number depends
entirely upon the Governor. Section 10 OF
the Code of Civil Procedure was then
amended so as to read as follows "Holi.
days within the meaning of this code are
every Sunday, the first day of January, the
twenty-second day of February, the thir
tieth of May, the fourth day of July, the
ninth day of September, the twenty fifth
day of December, every day on which an
election is held throughout the State, and
every day appointed by the President OF
the United States, or by the Governor of
this State, for public fast thanksgiving
or holiday" etc.
The Rev. Henry A. Adams, rector of st.
Paul's Church, Buffalo, at one time rector
of Trinity Church, New York city, at
tended the Press Club dinner in that city a
few nights ago, and in speaking of the press
said: "In nine cases out of ten the press
speaks on the right side. AS to Sunday
newspapers, the sooner the Christian world
recognizes that the Sunday paper has come
to stay, and that it breaches to the thou
sands who don't come to hear Us preach,
the better for the people. have always
begged the reporters not to put my sermon
in the Monday paper, but to save it till
Sunday, and preach to the people who do
not go to church. Our cause is one"
We have frequent inquiries of late from
various parts of the State asking informa-
ton in regard to the conditions of admis-
siod to the Leland Stanford Jr. University,
to whom application should be made for
renting cottages, etc. So far as we know
none of the details have yet been an
nounced.

thors and poets.

THE HAS commercial review for the
year 1889 leads that journal to the judy
ment that in all material lines it was a
year of prosperity for California. This is
too sweeping. Probably in the commerce
of the metropolis the AHa's conclusion is
reflected, but there were material lines
along which prosperity did not travel in
the year 1889. There was not much rail
road building, there was not much tourist
travel, there was not much immigration,
there was not that development in manu-
featuring that we had hoped for, and our
fishing industries were Frustrated. Never
theless it was not year of regrets. Our
export trade was quite good, and the in
crease of imports was general; our fruit
products gained new Importance in East
ern markets, money was not lacking, in
terest rates did not rise, and the State
suffered from no serious disaster.

THE bill just introduced into the United
States Senate for the establishment of in.
ternational copyright requires that for
eign book, to be entitled to protection
here, must be reprinted in this country and
bound here. 1t is very doubtful if this
bill will attain the purpose that the friends
of international copyright desire. We do
not understand that the bill will benefit
any foreign author who does not issue his
book in this country simultaneously with
its appearance at home. American authors
get better terms than that in England,
and, for the matter of that, in some other
foreign lands. We ought to give the for
eign author the same privilege here that
our authors secure abroad, and we can do
that and still require the reprinting to be
done in America.

PAT HARRIS COMMITTED SUICIDE,
He Shot Himself and the Facts Were
Kept Secret by His Friends.

NEW YoRK, August 22.-Dispatches received
from Bay Shore, LII, state that the death of
Patrick Harris, the weli-known theatrical man
ager, on Wednesday morning was not due to
natural causes, but that he committed suicide
By shooting himself. No cause for the act IL
known 1t was said that he committed suicide
by shooting himself aud that eyery effort had
been made by his friends to cover up the facts
IN the case, even to sending the body to Balti-
more with AL possible haste. Certain sus-
plclous circumstances attracted the attention
OF the coroner, the dispatch stated and he IN
stituted an investigation, the result Of which
was that he declared the case to be one Of sui
cide. The only particulars of the suicide
known In this city are that imme diately after
eating his breakfast Harris went into a room
alone and few minutes later his friends heard
pistol shot They rushed into the room and
found him PROSTATE on the foor with blood
rushing from an ugly wound in his body and q
smoking revolver at his side. He died, accord
ing to the story, in q very short time without
regaining consciousness.
THE REMAINS IN BALTIMORE
BALTIMORE, August 22.-The remains of the
late theatrical manager, Patrick Harris, ar
rived here from Bay Shore, IL, last night.
They were accompanied by his widow and n
number OF relatives and friends. The story
that Mr.. Harris committed suicide, instead Of
dying OF apoplexy, is denied by Mrs Harris
When questioned this afternoon she said:
1t is cruel and unjust statement. My hus-
band died from stroke of apoplexy and any
statement to the contrary is cruelty untrue"
Mr.. Iunis F. Dean, the business associate of
Mr.. Harris, also denies the report of suicide.
Mrs Harris is greatly Frustrated over the ru-
NOR. The funeral services will be held Sunday
afternoon at Mr. Harris late residence
