A Great American Magazine.
THE SUCCESS OF "THE CENTURY" AND
ITS PLANS FOR 1891.

ITS PLANS FOX 1901.
THE CENTURY MAGAZINE is now so well
known that to tell of its past success seems
almost an old story. The N. Y Tribune has
said that it and its companion, st. Nicholas
for Young Folks, issued by the same house.
90 are read by every one person in thirty of
the countrys population, and large edi
tions of both are sent beyond the seas, 1t is
an interesting fact that a few years ago it
was found that seven thousand copies of The
Century went to Scotland,-quite a respect
able edition in itself The question in Eng
land is no longer Who reads an American
book?" but ''Who does not see the Ameri-
san Magazines"
A few years ago The Ger tury about doub-
led it's circulation with the famous War
Papers, by General Grant and Others. adding
many more readers later with the Lincoln
History and Remnants thrilling articles on
the Siberian Exile System One great feature
of 1891 is to be
"THE GOLD HUNTERS OF CALIFORNIA"
describing that remarkable movement to the
gold fields in '49, in a series of richly illus
trated articles written by survivors, in
euding the narratives of men who went to
Califa-nahy the different routes, accounts
of the gold discoveries, life in the mines, the
work of the vigilance committees (by the
chairman of the committees) etc, etc. Gen
eral Fremont's last writing was done for
this series. In November appears the open
ing article, "The First Emigrant Train to
California, ,-crossing the Rockies in 1871, =
by General Bidwell, a pioneer of pioneers.
Thousands of American families who had
some relative or friend among the Argo-
nauts of 40" will be interested in these
papers.
