The Bells and the Churches. All of the church bells pealed out their centennial echoes at 9 o'clock this morning, at which hour services were held. The attendance was large in all and the services were very interesting and appropriate and in special reference to the day and the occasion. In St. Janies where the Episcopal congregations united in the service, they- were unique as well as interesting. The same service was used there, as nearly hs possible, as that which was used by Bishop Provoost in St Paul's Church, New York, one hun dred years ago, on which occasion Gen. Washington and his Cabinet were all present. Rev. Mr. Arnold, of St. Paul's, preached an excellent sermon. The Parish of St. James is itself about 150 years old, that is, as the immediate successor of St. Philip's Parish, and recently cele brated its individual semi centennial. The Magazines. The May number of the Magazine of American History brings an en tertaining chapter of Centennial in formation, "Washington's Historic Luncheon in Elizabeth," with pic. torial attractions, including a sketch of the Boudinot mansion, portraits of some of Washington's contem poraries, with engravings of the china table service and silverware that was placed before the "Father of His Country" on that occasion. These will be regarded with interest now, as the same service is to b placed before President Harrison a the luncheon given in his honor the day of his arrival in New York City April 29. 1889. "Oak Hill, the Home of President Monroe," is from the pen of the editor. "Indiana's First Settlement," by the Hon. E. A. Bryan, is an able pen picture of the state of Indiana. Then follow "The Harrisons in History," by Mrs. Ella B. Washington, "The Historic Quadrille," by Gen. John Cochrane, "Reminiscences of Mrs. Bradford.' the daughter of Hon. Elias Boudi not, by J. J. Boudinot; "Slavery in Connecticut," by Charles M. An drews; ami "Louisburg, 1745, Bunker Hill, 1775." by Natham M. Hawkes- As usual, it is a specimen of typo graphical beauty. Price, $5 a year. Published 743 Broadway, New York Citv. Magazine contains its customary varied assortment ""of interesting reading. The opening article, "A Familar Mystery," deals with a theory of dreanjs, and with occul tism. PrestoijOonnelly deals with the negro qustion in the South and James A: Macknight, an ex consul, gives an account of the abuses of the American Consul ser vice, and suggests a remedy. The complete novel, "The Tribulations of one Ebenezef Meeker," by Eliza beth Cammings, in a very clever and realistte dktlect story, in which love, religion, Christian science and faith cure, crime and remorse are very happily intermingled. There are, besides, three excellent short stories: "Doctor Merivale," "Jen," and "An Episode of 'Sixty-four." J. W. Watson contributes a readable sketch about "Pirates on Broad way." The poetry includes some vigorous lines on "International Copyright," also "The Troubadour," a graceful bit of society verse. The pressing negro question is also dealt with in the editorial department by Bonn Piatt, who furthermore dis cusses, in hisusual brilliant style,on "The Condition of Parties," "More of Our Diplomacy," and "The King dom of Satan." The customary book reviews and dramatic and miflNcal notes complete an excellent number.
