A nnmbor of people went to Monterey June 3 to attend the ceremonies Incident to unveiling the Serra monntnent. There were delegation(' of Nittivo Sons, Pine neera and Jumbos of tho Young Men's institute. Mrs. Stanford did not go down. The monument is the gift of Mrs. Stanford, as a tribute to the memory of Father .Tunipero Serra, the founder of the California missions. It has been erected on a hill near the old wooden cross that marks the presumed spot where_the,padre first landed. The mon- ument is of granite, and represents Father Serra standing by the prow of n small boat, front which he has apparent- ly just landed. Father Serra was born in the island of Majorca, Nov. 24, 1713, and Was edu- cated in the school of the Franciscan Fathers at San Bernardino, where even at an early age he was remarkable for his piety and zenl in n11 religious duties He took high rank as a scholar, and the honors and dignities of the church were open to him, but he preferred the life of a missionary, and in 1740 he set sail for Mexico, In that country he spent many yearn, partly as a teacher in a Franciscan college and partly in mis- sionary work, but in 1707 his great op- portuaity came, and ho WAS sent out to establish those missions which began the Civilization of California. For fourteen years he carried on these apostolic labors with tireless energy. He died at Monterey, Aug. 28, 1784.—San Francisco Bulletin, The City of the, Future. The city of the future in a country where cities are not left to accrete by chance, but are laid out with some re- gard to their possibilities, will undoubt- edly be planned with definite regard to its ultimate architecture, It is because Washington was thus laid out and Bos- ton was not that Washington promises to be the most symmetrical and the handsomest city in the world, while /3os- ton remains and will always remain an agglomeration of straight avenues and crooked cowpaths. New York, in some respects the most unfortunate of all American cities, owing to ite longitud- inal limitations, Is forcing attention to this fact with increasing poignancy every day. Suppose for a moment that Now York had been planned as any great modern structure is planned—that is to say, by beginning at the cellar. Suppose it had a Sub -story, and in great part a roof! Does any one fail to see thnt such pro- vision would relieve it of difficulties that ere never ending?—Nym Crinkle in Now York Recorder.
