An anniversary Of more than common interest
is to be celebrated in Brooklyn this week. 1t is
the golden jubilee Of the Rev. Sylvester Malone
who for half century has been doing in a SIM
pie and manly fashion the duties OF Roman
Catholic priest in charge Of single parish. The
celebration OF his fiftieth anniversary will begin
to-day and will eliminate In public meeting in
the Academy OF Music on Tuesday evening. At
this meeting Mayor Schieren will preside and
speeches will be made by number Of prominent
men. The meeting will be a testimonial on the
part OF Father Maones feowctizens of the
good will regard and affection which they feel
for him. BY his sterling character his steadfast
devotion to duty. and his public services, Father
Malone has earned such testimonial. He was
consecrated fifty years ago last August, and
went almost Immediately to take charge Of a
crude and widely scattered parish in Williams
burg He has seen that district grow from
population Of 10 900 to 100000. He has been
faithful priest a good citizen and an earnest
patriot. The display of the flag his church
after every Union victory during the war will
never be forgotten in Brooklyn. In his old age
Father Malone was. at the last session Of the
Legislature, elected member OF the Board Of
Regents. He is still in vigorous health and we
express the feeling Of all who know him when we
wish him many more useful and happy years Of
He.

as if in defiance Of al respectable and

MAGAZINE NOTICES.

The Century for July has several arr
ticles appropriate to this patriotic season.
In The Star-Spangled Banner John 9.
Carpenter retells the history of the
national hymn, and there is portrait of
Francis Scott Key and facsimile of the
poem, now published, it is believed, for
the first time. George Wharton Edwards,
in the Artists Adventures Series. con-
tributes humorous narrative of the
difficulties encountered by him while
Celebrating the Fourth in Antwerp. A
timely paper on the new cruisers, with
particular reference to the Indiana, of
which there is a picture, is contributed
by Albert franklin Matthews under the
title of The Evolution of q Battle Ship.
Mr.. Matthews, by vivid facts and figures,
gives defniteness to the vague magma
tion of the uninstructed reader in regard
to the great fighting machines which are
now being added to the American navy.
