Few, if any, civil engineers have occupled the chair of history in a great ’ university, but John Bach McMaster was a civil engineer before he was a historian. He now is writing the last volume of his work entitled “A History of the people of the United States.” He lives in Philadelphia, where he is profesor of history in the University of Pennsylvania. He has occupied that chair since 1883. Prior to accepting that position he practiced civil engineering and was an instructor in the engineering course of Princeton University for six years. Joseph Murphy of Monroe township was in the city yesterday looking up the law regarding the filing of a remonstrance to a ditch. He Is opposed to the dredging of Blue Creek ditch and is in favor of remonstrating. The remonstrance, he says, must be filed within ten days after the filing of the petition and must be signed by two thirds of those affected. Consequently he feels that if anything is to be done, some action will have to be taken quickly. He will see the boys down that way and may decide within a few days to do so. •

The reputation of William de Morgan grew so rapidly after the publication of his first book, “Joseph Vance,” that the first edition of each of his succeeding novels was about as large as the first five editions of the book that made him famous. Since its publication, five years ago, it has gone to press eleven times. Its successor, “Alice-for-Short,” has gone to press for the tenth time. His publishers assert they have never had an author whose books have been in greater or steadier demand. CARD OF THANKS.
