CALIFORNIA HISTORY.

Nothing, perhaps, but the accident
of the establishment of the Hudson s
Bay Company and the Northwest Fur
| Company saved northern California
| from becoming a Russian province.
Virtus Behring closed a life of adven-
ture by planting the Russian flag in
| Alaska in 1741. Four years later Sit
ka was founded. a quarter of cen
| fury elapsed before the SpaniardS I'M
| dertook their first northward advance
| from San Diego and Monterey. If the
English fur hunters had not inter-
vened between the two, Spaniards and
Russian would have graVitated toward
each other, and in that case the chan
ceS are that the Golden Gate and the
Sacramento would have been the di-
viding line between them.
Until the close of the eighteenth CEN
fury hunting and fishing on the Alas
kan shores were conducted by individ-
ual enterprise. The fur seal and sea
otter were hunted by Siberians, who
sailed the stormy seas of the north
in craft sewn together with thongs
and calked with moss. They belonged
to the primitive order of SavageS,
among whom robbery, outrage and
murder were the ordinary events of
the day, and at whose hands the meek
Aleut bent his neck to the knife as
the inoffensive Peruvian had crouched
before the countrymen of PiZarro
century before. In the last year of the
eighteenth century order was estab
lished in Russian America. COM
pany, in which the members of the
imperial family and the Muscovite
nobility were shareholders, was foun-
ded on the plan of the British East
India Company. Exclusive rights of
hunting and fishing were conferred
upon it. It's jurisdiction within its
territory was as broad as that of the
car himself. The Aleuts and their
neighbors held their lives and prop
erty at its mercy. They were not only
slaves, but no slave code threw over
them semblance of protection. Over
this corporation was set Gen. Bara-
noff, whom Astor's agent, Hunt, de-
scribed as a hyperbOrean veteran,
overlooking with hospitality, who, if
his guests do not drink raw rum and
boiling punch as strong as sulphur.
will insult them when he gets drunk.
which will be shortly after he sits
down to the table. He served the
company faithfully for thirty years,
and then was thrown over to starve
at the age of seventy-two.-S. F.

SUGGESTED CHANGE IN CAL
ENDAR

1t is suggested that on January /
1900, a new division Of the year into
thirteen months be instituted: If such
a division were made the first twelve
months would have twenty-eight days
or four weeks each. and the new month
twenty-nine days, to make 365, and
thirty in leap year. After a few day S
there would be no need to refer to cal
endars, as the same day of the week
would have the same date through
the year. If January 1 were say Mon
day. every Monday would be the LIST,
Sth 18th, and 22d; every Tuesday, the
ID, 9Th, 10th, and 23d, and so on
through the year. The change of the
mon would be on about the same dates
through the year, and many calcula-
tions, like interest, dates of maturing
notes, Easter, and many other import
ant dates would be simplified. 81
though the present generation would
have to figure new dates for birthdays
and all legal holidays except New Year
would be on different dates, yet the gain
would be more than the loss, as that
would be permanent and the objections
trifling.-Scientific American.

AN EXCELLENT ENTERTAINMENT.
Given for the Benefit of the Board OF
Charities.


The entertainment at the Lyceum
last night for the benefit of the Board
of Associated Charities was received
with liberal applause by an audience
that occupied three fourths of the first
floor and one-half of the balcony. Mrs.
Duggan stated to a Tribune reporter
after the entertainment that the Board
of Charities will derive nearly $500
from it.
The entertainers were from Boston.
Fred Emerson Brooks, "the California
poet -humorist," was imposed with the
larger part Of the work, and the others
who participated were Miss Winifred
Williams, Miss Louise Slocum and Y.
c. Johnson.
The entertainment was very fine.
Miss Slocum appeared only once, and
that was at the beginning. She most
deftly fingered the keys of the piano
in an etude brilliante. Miss Williams
has q contraltO voice of marked sweet
ness, and held under exquisite control.
She was on the programme three times
but was Obliged to respond to an en-
core, and did so with a charming bal
lad Of one stanza. Her first number
was THE Charming Cup;" the second
was "Sleep Little Baby Of Mine" and
the third was "Elsa's Dream" She
was richly applauded at each appear
ance.
Mr.. Johnson's talents were expressed
through the medium of a violin. His
mastery of the bow was excellent. Mr.
Brooks, as a recitatlonist and reader
needs no introduction to the reading
public. He gave eight selections, on
grave, gay ana humorous subjects
and was received with very compll-
mentary applause, The financial sue.

evidently stood up before a mirror in
the room, taken aim at his head, and
fell back llfeless.
Lieutenant Zang was notified and he
communicated with Desk Sergeant

Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In response to many requests
made by several of our most respectable
citizens, Evan z. Davis has become a
candidate for the Office of select council.
The duties involved in this office are
such, / think, as to require not only a
moral character and "A good reputation,
but also extraordinary intellectual abili-
ties. The important place that our city
holds among the cities of this common
wealth is alone a sumcient reason that
we should be very careful and prudent
in choosing persons as representatives
on all our boards. We should have, if
possible, the best men and brightest in
tellects, for the future of our city de-
ponds to great measure upon their
qualifications; and especially We should
have men to represent us governed not
by selfish motives, but with a desire to
serve for the general welfare of their
constituents
All who know Mr.. Davies will readily
admit that he is naturally endowed with
all the requirements of this office and
trust. He is an AL scholar, having filled
with credit to himself the important po-
sitions of surveyor. superintendent OF
mines, and at present acts in the capac-
ity of mine foreman for the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western company. He
is a man of judgment, which is essential
10 the once ana OF unqueStlonaDle IN
tcgrity. a man of his abilities and NOR
ality would be a worthy representative
in the important capacity to which he
now aspres. He is wise enough to honor
his position, and good enough to devote
himself faithfully to the demands OF
those whom he shall have the honor tC
represent Fellow citizens of the Fourth
ward, with all due respect to the Other
asprants for this office, Messrs. William
j. and Simon Thomas, let us consider
this matter. think it over carefully, and
decide for ourselves which one is the
most qualified to deserve our suffrages IN
the coming spring election.
