.Household Stories" From the collec-
ton of the Brothers Grimm. Translated
by Lucy Crane. Folklore societies and
delving individuals are doing their best to
rescue from oblivion the relics Of that vast
literature OF legend and fairy tale which
passed from generation to generation by
word of mouth long ere the invention Of
printing, Among the earliest investiga-
tions were the Brothers Grimm. those in
defatigable German barons who put the
whole apparatus of their learning at work
TO trace the best and most authentic YER
sions of stories older than civilization. The
existence of many of these folkstories in
widely remote lands proves their antiquity.
Their vitality proves their inherent charm.
A vast collection was made of them, and
this has served as a storehouse for now
nearly a century. The story of Cinderella
and her glass slipper. of the "Cat and
Mouse in Partnership" of the Twelve
Brothers." of "Rapunzel and the Which,
of Little Red Cap" and dozens of others
are loved by each new generation. They
never grow old. They have all the ele-
ments of popularity, of Immortality.
Lucy Cranes translation of the best of
these stories excels in its perfect simplic-
ity and faithfulness. 1t is written in beau
tiful English and in the spirit of the orig
inal. The present setting of these stories
admirably suits them. The illustrations
are sympathetic and artistic. Price, "a

Stowe has suffered for years, tenderly
cared for by her two daughters. 1t is a
long time since she has been able to do
literary work, and for the past two
years her condition has been such that
the worst might be expected at any
time. Of this however, the public has
not been generally aware.
A trained nurse has been in constant
attendance upon Mrs. Stowe. She walk

Mrs. Stowe exhibited considerable

was only of late that her power of

SAN FRANCISCO, June 27.-The will
of the late General Dimond was filed
for probate yesterday afternoon. The
document was signed in the preseNGe
of Horace G. Platt and Oscar T. Sea-
we'll, on the 28th day of February last.
Edwin R. Dimond, the youngest son of
the deceased is named as one of the ex-
ecutors. The value of the estate is not
known.
William Waterhouse Dimond is be-
queathed $4,000. A similar sum is de-
vised to Edwin r. Dimond and the
Union Trust Company in trust for Har-
ry w. Dimond The income is to be de-
voted to his support and maintenance
until the trustees in their judgment
may deem it best to deliver the money
to Harry Dimond William and Harry
are the sons of the first Mrs Dimond
To Edwin r. Dimond, a son by the
second wife of the General, is bequeath-
ed one-third of the remainder of the
estate.
The remainder of the estate is left
to Edwin r. Dimond and the Union
Trust Company to invest as they may
see fit, the income to be applied, share
and share alike, to the education, sup
port and maintenance of the two daugh-
ters of the deceased, Mrs. Tobin and
Mrs. Jarboe, during the term of their
natural lives. Either of the two daugh-
ters may dispose of her interest in the
trust estate by will.
1t is provided that should either of
the daughters die intestate, leaving a
child or children surviving her. each
child or children shall receive in equal
parts the share of the deceased parent.
Should either of the daughters die
intestate and without issue, the portion
of the trust property belonging to her
goes to Edwin r. Dimond, if alive, free
from any trust. If dead and leaving is
sue, the share shall be divided equally
among his surviving Children. In the
event of Edwin r. Dimond dying with
out issue, the portion of the trust goes
to the surviving daughter. In case Ed
win r. Dimond should survive his sis
ters, they leaving no children, all the
estate becomes his property.
In explanation of the fact that the
two elder sons are bequeathed but a
meagre share of the estate, Horace G.
Platt, who was General Dimond's at
torney, says that it was family ar
rangement and is perfectly satisfactory
to all the children: The eldest sons had
received their mothers fortune. Mr.
Platt is now looking after the affairs
of the dead Major General He says
that but little real estate was owned

Ii Hung Chang, the great Chinese
statesman, who is now on a visit to
European countries, will defer Ills tour
of the United States until autumn. He

It is expected that he will remain
longer in Europe than he originally an

peror of China to the President, which
he desires to present in person. The

stated that Ii Hung Chang would prob
ably arrive in the United States some
time in September, and he will prob
ably remain in this country month
or more.
The State Department authorities are
discussing plans for the entertainment
of the distinguished visitor. AS Con-
gress makes no provision for such pur-
poses, the department may find itself
embarrassed in it's desire to extend the
courtesies due to the rank and station
of the envoy. 1t is hoped the State gov
ernments will assist in entertaining the
