THE San Francisco Chronicle is the out.
growth OF the Dramatic Chronicle, started
25 years ago by the DeYoung brothers,
as the programme of Maguire's Opera
House, in San Francisco. The brothers
were good managers, and from a sheet
no larger than this, it has grown to be a
metropolitan daily. Its marked success
was attributed to the brains that ap.
peared on the editorial page. The man
agement was shrewd enough to employ
good writers to touch upon current
topics. The novelty pleased the public,
and the rise of the Dramatic Chronicle
was like the change of the caterpillar to
the butterfly, rapid and glorious. May
not our little venture cast its eye on this
bright example, and build up Chateau en-
Espdnge, even though they may not pos
sess patent to durability? - Dramatic

MARSHAL IMAGINATION DEAD.-Mar.
shall MacMahon, one OF the greatest
military generals OF the age, is dead
He was of Irish extraction, born in
1908. a son of peer of France. He
served in Algeria, from 1880 to 1850
In 1852 he became General Of Divi
sion. In the siege OF Sabastopol, he
commanded the division which took
the Malakof by assault. He com
manded the Second Corps d Armee in
the Italian campaign OF 1859, and
took a prominent part in the battle o.
Magenta. For this service he was
made Marshal of France, with the title
of Due de Magenta. He also contrib
uted to the victory Of Salferino, the
same year. His subsequent career wa:
not so successful. He was defeated by
the Prussians at Worth, and at the
great battle of Sedan QS7O) he was
severely wounded. AS a matter o.
local interest, it may be noted thai
Jacob Stamptler, of this city, was bu
gler on MacMahon's staff for eight
years. He was with him during the
Franco-Prussian war, and relates many
thrilling incidents of camp.life and the
dangers personally encountered by
him on several occasions when he en-
gagged in the hazardous occupation o
spy for his venerated commander.
