Eureka, Ca., June 11 - Everything in this bluenose colony is now hustling and St. John people would hardly recognize the many New Brunswickers who are loyal Americans and are sounding their lungs in the present campaign. Many of them, however, have fond recollections of their old home and say they would go back there, were it not terribly cold in the winter. First of all I will mention J.G. MURRAY. The gentle breezes of the Strait Shore (St. John) and in earlier days he was wont to play marbles with David McLELLAN and Michael FINN. It is thirty years since he bid them good-bye and while Mr. McLellan was steering the ship of state in your provincial legislature., Mr. Murray was steering the ship of this state in the California Legislature. He is now manager of Humboldt County hospital which is owned by a New Brunswick doctor, W.H. WALLACE. Dr. Wallace is assisted in his practice by Dr. McKINNON, a P.E.I. man, who has practiced here about four years. .. I dropped into the Grand Hotel where N.W. CHRISTIE of St. Stephen, N.B. is proprietor, and fell on to Frank QUINTON, William QUINTON's brother, and young Bill, who in my day was one of the literary men of the 'Daily Sun', is the dead image of Frank. They look enough alike to be brothers. ... As I look out the window in front of where I am writing, I see Frank S. DUFF, now an old grey-haired man walking down the street. 42 years ago he left St. John and made Eureka his home, when it was a howling wilderness and the Digger Indian was wont to prowl around his cabin at night. ... Harry MORAN, formerly of the 'Progress' met me a short time ago and we had a splendid chat. This is a sporting place also and a short time ago I went out to Samoa, Eureka's pleasure resort and saw a game of base ball. I thought I recognized in one of the players a familiar form, but was not near enough to see the face. Soon the form glided down to the coach line and the stentorian lungs of Jimmy KENNEDY roared as they did when he was covering the third bag and pulling down flies for the St. John's. You will find a bluenose here in every corner of the state from San Quinton's prison to Sacramento's capital. McNULTY, a St. John man, shot a police man in San Francisco four years ago and has been on trial ever since for his life. He was sentenced to hang once, but owing to a technicality in the law he is still alive. .. Since I wrote my last letter, John VANCE, a prominent bluenose citizen, has died, leaving a large amount of wealth. .. I just stopped writing for a moment to welcome to the golden shore of California another Bluenose, Dr. SINCLAIR of Newcastle, N.B. who has just arrived here where he intends to begin the practice of medicine. He has brothers in this country who have been here a number of years. His uncle, John SINCLAIR, is one of Humboldt's leading citizens. He believes in speedy horses and is manager of the Pacific Lumber Co., engaged in the manufacture of redwood lumber. Then there are the MACKAYs from Miramichi, all wealthy lumbermen, who came here in the early days. They own large mills and ship their own lumber from Eureka. The city clerk is James KELEHER of St. Andrews, N.B.
