LOSS OF A GUNBOAT.
Foundering at Sea of a Haytian WarShip.
NtW York, September 22 TheAlexander l'etion, one of the new gun-I-
ats of the Haytian navy, foundered011 September 6th near Cape Tiburonand only one of her crew ol ninety mensurvived to tell the story. The ncwiof the ss of the war vessel was broughthere yesterday by passengers on theI ntch steamer Prince Wilhelm, whichai lived from I'ort au Prince.
The cause of the disaster is un-
known.The day was fair and the passengersre er joying themselves in the cabin
when suddenly the vessel began to sink.The office! of the watch ordered themen to pass the w.,rd in the cabinsand forecastle for those aboard to reachthe deck quickly and jump overboard.
It was already too late. There wasterrible confusion in the cabin as thepanic stricken passengers struggled toreach the dc k. In a minute from thetime she begun to sink the vessel wasentirely under water.
One survivor, as the ship sank underhim, snatched a pair of oars from a life-
boat and threw himself into the water.He caught a plank upon which hedrifted lor forty-si- hours with nothing10 1 at or drink.
The news of the loss of the gunboatcast a gloom over the town of Port
Many families in town andthe citizens of are hope-ful that others of the crew may haveesea ed. There are no teefs and shoalsin the neigborhood where the vesselfoundered, according to the officialcharts. The point is out of the usualpath of navigation.

A CRITIC VF HONOLULU
J. L Howard, a recent visitor from
Stockton, did not find Honolulu to his
taste and is reported by coast papers t
have said many harsh tiling! about it
after his return home.
One of the objections noted was thai
it costs very much to live here. By
the St. ckton standard of prices this is
perh ips true, just as it is "f Su cktonitself when the expense of a livelihot d
there is contrasted with that at places
in the Interior of Ohio, New York or
Massachusetts. We are far from themain centers of production, and for
some reason or other we do not make
use of our fertile soil as well as we
might. Still, Mr. Howard's anathemawas too sweeping. He mentions onehotel at which people were plundered,and leaves it to be inferred that thebrigandage is general when, as a matterof fact, the prices he has named are
cut in halves or thirds at a score of
our family hotels and boarding houses.
As respects hack hire, his badly beaienfriends neither made a bargain in ad-
vance nor consulted the posted hack- -
rates. Thev permitted themselves to
be buncoed, and might have been
fooled the same way at Stockton hadthev naraded their inexperience andtheir dollars bt fore the covetous eyes
a local jebu.
The most serious exception we take
to Mr. He ward's indictment touchesthe count that in morals "the cily of
Honolulu is absoluuly rotten." Tosav this of a place containing a distinctmissionary community and an English
German and American colony of thehighest class is to commit a damaginglibel. The civilized part of Hon;. lulu,
which is included in Mr. Howard'sgeneralization, has a moral standingequal to that of any city of similar size
in Great Britain, Prussia or New Eng
land, and is superior in the nati re and
extent of some of its reiigious observ-
ances ftnd customs to the common
run of cities anywhere. The people
are educated, high minded and virtuous
Below them is the same "under-worl-
that exists in all lands anil towns ; andif Mr Howard confined his observa
tions to this, he saw, no doubt, much
of the vice which he describis. He
could have found a wider diffusion of
it per capita and of worse form in the
chief cities of his own State, but he
would hesitate, on that account, t
cover the good men and women therewith moral obltquy on account of it
We very much doubt that Mr. Howaid
would have noticed any rotteness here
if he had not gone in search of it.
Those who enter sewers find vilcness
enough the world over, but such
scavenger! have no right to say thatpeople who keep themselves above
ground in the sunshine and pure air
are contaminated by the evil mess
Mr. Howard should come agai andtake a longer look, giving churches andhouseholds the attention which he
seems to have bestowed while here
upon the hula hula and its native andlow white devotees.
It is to be regretted that the snubadministered by President Cleveland to
Claus Spreckels should have causedthe King to leave Washington
in a hurry. We had counted upon
longer stay of the aged coolie-dri- t r
the precinct! of the capital where, by
his assaults upon the Provisional Gov
erntuent and its adherents, he was
doing the cause of annexation a vast
amount of good. It may b;, however
that we shall have some compensationin the fact that Mr. Spnckels will not
be able to keep still and that his mouth
and pen will continue to aid the popu
lar movement here by keeping the
public mind alert as to the monopolistic
greed and personal ignorance of some
of those who are foremost championsof the restorationist cause.
Our esteemed contemporary, the
Johannesburg (South Africa) Sentinel
announces that the labor and proles
sional market in that booming land is
overstocked, and that no room remains
for any immigrants except female white
cooks. It ib to be suspected that the
demand for the latter is as much
matrimonial as culinary, as there are
ten men to one woman in the home of
boers and goldreefs. This, however,
rill not b.1 regarded as a disadvantage
and wc shall look fot quite a hegir.i of
apple cheeked lassies to the southernend ot the D.trk Continent.
Whh.k not among those who think
the Midwinter Fait will be a financial
success, the Star has no doubt that it
will be held. In the bright lexicon ol
it's chief or iector, Hon. M H Do
Young, there is no such word as fail.
We cannot doubt that the show will be
worth seeing, and to this end we hope
that Hawaii will see fit to make a got d
exhibit.
Sknaior SlKWARl has been driven
t.. 1 dub!' us extreme when he bring
articles of impeachment against l'rtsident Cleveland. Even he cannot ex
pact them to prevail nor to drive the
President out of the straight path which
he has announced his purpose to pur
sue. Toe whole thing looks like a bit
of theatrical by play, intended for the
Nevada galleries, and quite unworthy
of the giaybeard statesman who has
takin the e nter of the silver stfge.

Social and News Notes from Kealia,Kauai.
Life at Kealia for the past few
months has been "just a trifle speedy,"made up largely of balls, parties, 111 on
light excursions, musicals, etc., by the
upper ' four hundred," with an oc
sional fight and a murder or two
amongst the lower classes thrown in to
give zest and spice to it all. Most
liehtf jl among th s. cial functions of
rcent occurrence was a garam party
giien by Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Spalding
it their pretty home in Kealia, in
honor of the former's birthd.y.The Colonel said: "A year ago tt
day I celebrated my 50th anniversarybut this year I am only 45, and htlooks and hCtl it. Covers were laid forfifty, and all the principal pe pie of thissection were present to ao nonor 1
one of Realm's most popular residentsThe usual tl ral embellishments addedto the beamy and success of the aff ir
Saturday evening Mr. Charles B.
Makee gave an elegant poi supper fol
lowed by music and dancing at hisbeautiful home, Lily Heights, Kapaa,in honor of his charming sister, MrsAlice Hastings, who is visiting him.Phe house was beautifully illuminatedand decorated with floweis, and as
everybody was there in all their jewelsand finery, presented a very bright andanimated apoearauce. Covers werelaid for lorty.
In the interim there have been manylittle impromptu gatherings cardparties, musicals and dances at PythianHall, Kealia, so that tile is anythingbut dull hereabouts.
The Misses Kamakee and MariaCummins are guests of Mis. WnliamBlatsdell, where many of the mostdelightful evenings are passed. I heyoung ladies are quite well and seemto enjoy our climate. Their cousin,
David, is sojourning withGeorge H. at Kealia, and hasentirely recovered from his recent ill
ness. Samuel Hundley, who has beenrusticating on the other islands for thepast month or six weeks, is expectedhome by next steamer.
Monday we were pleased to see thejovial, pleasant face of A. T. Atkinson,Insptctor-Genera- l of Schools, who was
on his official visit to tne scnooi 01
this island.The teachers of Kauai are always
pleased to receive the inspector, who,by his kindly advice and valuable suggestions, has mide himself very popularamong them.

TO IMPEACH CLEVELAND
That Is What Senator Stewart Has SetOut to Do.
Washington. September 23. A
resolution providing for the prepar..iiof articles ot impeachment ot President Cleveland w..s introduced in theSenate It demands that th
President of the United States be
arraigned in the Senate on Mondaynext for violating the spirit of thconsitution in endeavoring to destroythe indepedence of the g
branch of the Government by seekingto coerce Congress into the passage ol
the repeal bill. Notice to this effectwas ckary indicated in a resolutionpresented this morning by SenatorStewart of Nevada, upon which htannounced he would address the Sen-..t-
next Monday. The resolution deClares the independence of the C-
oordinate department of the Government; that their independence mustbe maintained, and that use of p. werand influence by one department tocontrol the action of another is a
violation of the constitution and thedestruction of our form of governmentThe introduction of the resolutioncreated a great sensation, and the dis-
cussion of the matter next Mondaywill attract great attention, as it indi-
cates the intention of the silver Sentors to divert discussion in the Senateto other issues and prolong it and pre
ipitate a discussion of the allegedassumption of the President to controlCongress.
Mail by the Australia on Wednesdayshould be distributed in San Franciscoon the 17th. As both the Oceanic andMariposa leave that city on the 19ththere wjll be t'me to gel quick answers.
i'Hfc HAWAIIAN STAR,
HAWAII AND SUGAR,
AN INTERESTING LETTER TO
THE "SUN. "
With Remarks About the Spreckels
Family by One Who Knows
the Situation Here.
San Francisco, Sept. 13. Wehave heard much from Mr. ClausSpreckels about the ruin that is star- -
intr him in the face. Let us overhaulthese ruins and see if something cannot be saved for poor Mr. Spreckels.
v e must first understand and understand thoroughly that Mr. Spteckels has but one interest : the interestof Mr. Spreckels. This stands first,last, and all the time.
Mi. Spreckels has been telling usfor some time past that the annexationof the Hawaiian Islands to the UnitedStates will ruin his business as a
sugar planter- - Well, what of it?That is no concern of the UnitedStates. But let us see if he has toldus the whole story.
We have heard that sugar can heprofitably grown only where labor isvery cheap. If raw sugar he such a
cheap product, how is it, then, thatrefined sugar is so dear ? Raw sugarcan be bought for Zx2 cents in
New York, and fine granulated sugaris sold by refiners there at 8 Vi centsper pound. Does it cost 2 cents perpound to refine the sugar ? Wethought the cost was hut 5s of a cent,which would leave a handsome mar-
gin for the refiners, of whom Mr.Spreckels is one. This does not looklike ruin.
But it may he different on the Paci-fic coast, where Mr. Spreckels has hisrefinery. Let us see. There he paysless than the New York price for thesugar that is grown by the Hawaiianplanters. They have no other marketand nobody else to sell to, so he deducts of a cent for the privilege ofselling to Spreckels, and pays themonly 'A) cents. Does he sell anycheaper ? Not much. We see inthe San Francisco Chronicle of Sept.8 that Mr. Sprocket's refinery wasoffering dry granulated sugar at G4cents net cash, and fine granulated attjj cents net cash, a full cent andmore per pound above the price in
New York. Buving at y cent perpound less and selling at one cent perpound more does not look like ruin.The refiners there are able to declarebig dividends out of their profits, andsurely Mr. Spreckels must he able tokeep the wolf from the door with hisstill larger profits.
Although Mr. Refiner Spreckelsdocks i of a cent per pound from theprice that he pays to the Hawaiianplanters, we do not suppose that hedocks anything of the price paid toMr. Planter Spreckels for the sugarthat he grows. Even if he did it
would be so much more profit for Mr.Refiner Spreckels, and, if Mr. PlanterSpreckels were getting ruined, weknow that Mr. Refiner Spreckelswould not be starving.
But then there are yet other Mi.Spreckelses on the horizon. There isMr. Beet Sugar Grower Spreckels.This gentleman grows sugar beet in
California, which he sells to Mr. BeetSugar Maker Spreckels, and we sup-
pose there is money, both in the grow-
ing and the making, for we have heardnothing of ruin in the beet sugarbranch of the Spreckels family. ThenMr. Beet Sugar Maner bpreckels re
ceives a bounty of 2 cents per poundfrom a paternal Government lor allthe beet sugar that he makes, overand above whatever profit, il any,there may be in the making. Andagain Mr. Beet Sugar Maker Spreck-els sells his raw beet sugar made in
California, and on which he has earn-
ed the country's bounty, to Mr. SugarRefiner Spreckels, who no doubtmakes a profit in the purchase, andwithout doubt in the selling by Mr.Refiner Spreckels, because we haveheard nothing about ruin in thesetransactions.
Suppose we take as gospel thestatement that Mr. Hawaiian CaneSugar Grower Spreckels would beruined by the annexation of the Ha-
waiian Islands to the United States,we yet have a satisfactory degree ofassurance that Mr. Refiner Spreckelswould be making money in his business of refining and selling what hebuys from Mr. Cane Planter Spreckels. I hen again, we know that Mr.Beet Sugar Grower Spreckels and Mr.Raw Beet Sugar Maker Spreckels
money with the aid of a
Government bounty ; also that Mr.Refiner Spreckels comes in again tomake his share ot profit out 01 whathe buys from Mr. Beet Sugar MakerSpreckels, and in the selling thereof.
Thus we have a handsome familytree of sweet Spreckels, and all of thename of Claus Spreckels, only one ofwhom is afraid of being ruined. Wefeel quite sure that the other members of the family, who aie presum-ably making money and earning a
lair livelihood awl fair wages, wouldnot let this one member of the familystarve. We need not feel uneasy.The President, Mr. ParamountBlount, and the people of the UnitedStates need have nti alarm that Mr.Cane Sugar Planter Spreckels willever be in need or go hungry. Therest of his family are doing well, and,if needs be, there is friend Nordhoftwilling to share a crust of bread withthe hungry Hawaiian sugar planter,Claus Spreckels.

'Voiild, I ImkgliH', be disnpiiointiil by New-port on tlii'ir first visit after liiarinK somucli of ils itelii'liiiiil situation nnd nnsccllaneoiis ehaiins. I reniemlier tlmt I wnswhen I tint cjinie here us a boy, and that Iwondered at, its reputation, which was farless then t ban it is now. Its praise hfcvebeen so loudly and persistently chantedthat' one illicit expect to see a kind of mod-ern Kden, and haloed it is so rouarded bythe rich Rumineicrs who ive it fame andconstitute its society. It may bo called,therefore, a p uiocvai ic Kden. for the plu-tocrats have (bine all that wealth could doto make if at! i act ive, and they look at italmost entirely from tho standpoint ofwealth.
This hRlOWned resort Is pleasant verypleasant, locally and climatically and ingeneral would bo so considered doubtless,had not its eMgRerated encomiums been socontinually dinged in our ears. Still itseems to me that it owes far less to naturethan it owes to art., or perhaps to architecture, contributed with a most lavish hand
Tho sea view is not nearly ho extensive Mmight bo Inferred. There are many cottages it is yet he custom to so designatethe sumptuous villas hero from which nopart of t he ocean is visible And from theOcean House, the old t ime hostelry, scarcely a vestige of water, except in the ewers.maybe aeon. Hence in all likelihood itsname nanus being selected nowadays fromtheir total unfitness.
Ocean aveuue, running at right angles toBellovuo avenue, is much tho more inviting thoroughfare of the two, though lossconspicuous. The cottages on it have theirrear seaward, and the roar pia.zas comIiiuml the best views of any bore.
The noted ocean drive, which runsaroundby tho fort (Adams) does not deserve itsnoteduess. The road is not particularlygood, and a large portion of it is awayfrom tho soa. Hut the summerors driveover it, unless the weather bounpropiliuusas regularly as they dine, and speak of itas if it wcri! another Corniche.
Some of the nio-t- . attractive parts of thisIsland it is not generally known that Newport Is on tho island of Rhode Island areseldom Visited, tho majority of people Utniting themselves to the immediate entourage of the old town and its summer addition, much the more important of the two,The old town is decidedly interesting, butbcarcely anyone wdio comes here ever thinksof it, being absorbed by the showy and pretentious modern quarter. Nevertheless itbad a century ago great commercial conse-quence, being a rival of New York andbustling with enterprise and expectation.Now it is but a fashionable resort. Thesmart set think that it has advanced be
cause its members possess it utterly, and,it may be added, emptily.
This is often spoken of asa balhiugplaceIt is such potentially, though not actuallyto the summerers, especially to the fominine portion, who never bathe. What thorrible imputation on line, nice womenTho charge would seem to he unpardonableWhat I mean is that they never bathe luthe sea those women at least who consuler thomselvss fashionable, and earn theconsideration by the variety and elaborateness of their attire. They are continuallyputting on and taking off costly gowns undtheir accompaniments, and this involvestime and trouble, even with a maid to aslist at the profess. They arc delighted t
dress and undress a dozen times a daywbeu vanity and mode require, but not fora nluiiKO in the sea.
Everybody, even men, know that to donand doff a bathing suit, particularly on account of the stickiness of salt water, is abother and a burden. And it may easilybe imagined why women, to whom selfdecoration is the chief end of life, are tinwilling to OOCUPy an hour or two daily fora purpose that does not show, or, what isworse, shows to disadvantage. They arecertainly justified, as they look at It, intheir objection to sea baths.
What is most.striking and alluring hereis the Superb cottages and grounds, the general pageantry of the place, the gorgeouspanorama, us it may be called, of the opulent colony. As a spectacle It is not in myopinion equaled at any resort at home orabroad not at lirigntou, iruuvnie, JMeeWiesbaden, Hamburg or Uiiden-Uade- n intbeir most, daz.hng season, hatevermoney, taste, study, contrivance, social ambit ion or selfish rivalry can do for outwardresplendence is done here t o the utmost. Itis well worth seeing, very impressive, fullof suggestiveness. He who w ishes to admire it should accept it s appearance; shouldnot look below the surface; should not attempt analysis. This might spoil the llavorof the exhibition and alter our opinion ofits val ue.
The panorama looks beautiful, thouglmuch of its interior is ugly, even hideousMen who seem so brave and self salistieare really alarmed and discontented. Wornen who seem enviable and happy are conmimed with heartburnings and wretchedness. It is all a show; a splendid show-
but only a show. New port is a small worldin itself, hollow, aching? meretricloumostly devoid of simplicity and sinceritythe principal virtues ot w holesome existence. In such a circle these are impossible
Those acquainted with the colony areaware to what an extent it is seamed withgossip, generally false, often malicious, notseldom true. Women meet, embrace, paymut ual OOmplimcntS, and yet hale one an-
other cordially. They are well bred, asthe phrase goes, and breeding concealswhat is disagreeable or painful, lichindthe brilliant gaze and the sweet smile thefever flushes and the cancer lurks. New-
port is an epitome of the world.It is hard for any one outside of the
gilded ring to comprehend how its mem-
bers can take pleasure in continuing herethe artificial i fast, furious, wholly un-
wholesome life they lead in town. Andthey name it rest and recreation in uucou-ooipu- s
irony. It might be supposed thatthey would tire to dissolution of the inces-
sant rOJind of gayety, makebelieve anddissipation. But they do not, apparently,though the death of many may be justlycharged to society. What iron const ilutious, what elastic systems they must posseas, after all So incessant a chase offolly is enough to kill a giant, and seemingly delicate women survive it seasonafter season.
While the habituea represent variouscities, most of them are from Nsw York,which lu many respects is seen hero at itsworst, tiloss it as you may, this society isat base a parade and panegyric of moneyput to Its worst uses. New York is thebml school on this continent lor ihe dete-

BEATEN AT HIS OWN GAME.
A Youthful Auditor TIU n Story r.lec'rThan Oneta m Doe.
It was groat fun for the boVR In the vll- -
lnge where Unole Hill lived to git him started telling some of his big stories. Apparent thru- were no .omul . to Ins imagineHon and to the number of his tales. Mostof them wore connected In some way withthe Hudson, as he had spent nearly hiswhole life on the rivor.
Seated on a strin;,'pioee of the w harf oneafternoofi with a number of youngstersaround him he bottau by tolling his audience what a wondi rful river the HudsonWas.
"Hoys," he said, "I toll yor that, 'ore Is amighty fine river. Yer kin go most any- -
w here yor mind to on her, 1 essir, yer kingo to tber north polo an tfr the south pole."
rhe hoys winked to one another, but didnot venture to make any remarks.
How about, (,'uptam Hroat s sloop, UncleHill:-- asked one of hi, auditors.
Ah, murmured the old man, "she was adandy, she was. Why, I've soon that 'ereslo'p, loaded With ore till her deck was Hushwith t her water, go (low n through Haver- ofstraw bav under full sail when thur breezewas so st i If that the other boats had tworeefs in their mains'ls an their jibs bobbed,and some of 'em with their peaks dropped.We've gone slashin dow n Havers! raw bayWith olo Sary's bow under water nioie'nhalf ther time an didn't mind It at all.She was a great slo'p, now, if yer wanterknow it."
llow did you like bavin the West Pointfellers shoot holes through the mainsail,Uncle Hilly" asked an auditor.
I didn't like it nohow. 'Tain t no usetryin tor fool with them fellers, they're teweverhislin retkalous. One o' them shotspurty near took off my whiskers.11
My! Unci Hill that was a narrer oscape, remarked an impudent youngster,with a wink at his grinning companions,
but it ain't narthin to what I had oncewhen I was lightin Injuns out west. Oneevenin jest about sunset I was going homoto the camp w hen all of a sudden an Injunjumps from behind a bush, and before I
could do anything he put up his rifle andfired right at my head. 1 saw the bulletcoinin an caught it between my tooth andshook it at him. The Injun gave a yelland run as hard as he could."
There was a howl from the other boys,but Uncle Hill, with a look of deep disgustat being beaten at hisowu game, exclaimedin tones of great disapproval:
Ah, you shatter pill, you, what do yerwant tor lie to or poor ole man fur?" Andhe got Up and walked slowly away.
Superstitions! About Old GtrdlM.Girdles were an object of superstition,
more especially if they had belonged tofemale saints. BUCD girdles were popularlybelieved to possess a certain remarkablepower the power, namely, or protectingwomen from some of the more serious ill-
nesses that are attendant or consequentupon childbirth. This superstition per-meated through all classes of the sex.Queens credited the miraculous virtues of
our lady I girdle and paid large pricesfor the loan of one. The majority of thesegirdles were believed to have been theproperty, duing her lifi t nne, of St. Margaret, the gracious patroness of marriedwomen. Nearly every nunnery in hngland

(jimrtera For an Alligator.The alligator which accompanies home
nearly every traveler to Florida and oftenperforms the journey by himself in a boxby mail should have both water and drylaud so that he can choose for himselfwhere he will abide. I have seen one keptin a tub of water unchanged till it was of-
fensive, and another who had absolutelyno access to water at all. Both these treatments were improper and cruel. A goodway to make an alligator com forUible,which we are bound to do if we snatch binfrom his home and deprive him of liberty,is to prepare a large box that will holdwater, with a board running up out of thewat er that he cau occupy if he desires. Alittle pile of rocks, behind or within whichhe cau hide, will be a welcome addition tohis quarters, ror 1000 place oysters orcut raw beef where he can get it. He usually prefers to eat in solitude, but hiskeeper must remove the remains if therebe any the next day. The water should bechanged often and kept sweet. OliveThorne Miller in Harper's Bazar.

The Clever Advance AgentA group of actors anil ninnagers were
deploring the fad that there w ere no moreclever advance agents, They claimed themen with viviil imaginations had eitherbecome proprietors or managers or elsedisappeared entirely. "The best advanceagent in this country, remarked one man-ager, "got his training with llarnum's cir-cus. I first met him in Fremont, Neb , andbe va with the show. The morning ofthe performance it was rumored about thaithe elephants while bathing in the l'latteriver hud got caught in the famous quick-Rand- s
of that stream. Bulletins were putout every hour, stating that the elephantshad sunk another inch or two. Theriver banks were crowded with people, andevery hour brought hundreds more. About1 o clock this agent winked to the trainer,and he winked to the elephants. The biganimals slowly crawled out of the mudand started for the grounds. Of course thecrowd followed, and most of them went Into the tents. This trick was played inevery town on the l'latte river." Cor.Springfield Graphic.
Letter Carrying In China.In China before a letter is mailed or de
livered to the carrier its contents are dis-played, and the keeper of the letter shopthen signs his "chop," or sign, so that itspoint of origin may be determined. Parcelsmay be transmitted in the same manner,the charge for carrying being a percentageof their declared value. The shop keepergives a receipt, for the letter OT pael.age, andhe thus becomes responsible for its safe delivery or its return to the sender with sealunbroken. In some parts of the empireabout two thirds of the expense of trans-mission is paid by the Sender, the remainderbeing collected from the receiver. Thus theshop is secured against entire loss fromtransient customers, nnd the sender hassome guarantee that his letter will be conveyed wiiii dispatch. Native merchantswho are regular customers keep an openaccount with the shop and make theirsettlements monthly.
CanaetngCanoeing is a sport particular y adapted

paddle. Sailing a canoe is decidedly agymnastic exercise and WOUld better beleft to tiie young at blete.

before its advent, the newspaper tra-
ditions of 1 8124 held sway. It has three prime objects:
To support the cause of of Hawaii
to the United States and assist all other movements,
political, social or which are of benefit to
these Islands and their people.
To print all the news of its parish without fear
or favor, telling what goes on with freshness and
accuracy, nothing which the public has
the right to know.
To make itself to the family circle
by a wise selection of reading matter.
As a commentator the Star has never been
accused of motives.
As a reporter the Star has left no field of local
interest
As a friend of good the Star has
been instant in service and quick to reach results.
As an medium the Star, from the
week of its birth, has been able to reach the bestI

though the mass of information collectedIs extremely interesting, the main questionremains practically unanswered. The re-
sults of these efforts, together with someinteresting observations thereon, are setforth in a bulletin of the forestry dlriaionof the depart ment of agriculture.
Water comes as near being indestructible,as any substance of which we know. Con-sequent ly the total quantity of it in theearth and in the earth's atmosphere is
the same, Only a very small percent- -
age of it is what, one of the writers io thisbulletin terms the circulating part of theearth's water capital. The sun makes vaporof water that is lying at its level oris onthe way to And its level. This vapor is con-densed until it. Ls heavier than the air andstarts again toward its level, anil that ishow the circulation goes on. In w hat waydoes t he presence of forests Influence thiscirculation
It would be a long story to tell of themethods employed in France, Germany,Sweden. Austria and other eountriesof Eu-rope to measure the Various influences thatmust be considered in determining how andto what extent the rainfall and the flow ofstreams are affected by the presence of for-ests. A very important factor, since heatis what starts the movement of the earth'scirculating water Capital, is the matter oftemperature, and the n - nils of the investi-gation seem to show beyond dispute thatforests reduce the maxima ami the minimaof temperature, that they reduce the maxi-ma more than the minima, and that conse-quently their eiTuc.t is to make the averagetemperature for the year cooler.
Also, their moderating influence in great-er than their cooling effect. Because theair above forest regions is slightly coolerthan the strata over treeless tracts, con-densation should be more rapid than overopen fields, and the rainfall should begreater. These cooler bodies of air, beingblown over adjacent regions that are notwooded, should also Increase somewhat theprecipitation there. That is the theory,and it seems to be in some degree support-ed by the measurements that have beenmade.
Accepting the conclusion that, in general,forests increase slightly the fall of rain,snow and dew, il remains to be determinedbow much of this increase is available forbeneficial purposes. Part of it is inter-cepted by foliage, and is returned to theatmosphere by evaporation without havingreached the ground. The proportion so re-
tained varii s with the nature of the folia,',the density of the forest and the season ofthe year. The retention by evergreen treesis less than by deciduous. It is estimatedthat perhaps 80 percent of the precipitationla thus intercepted and returned to the at-mosphere. Of course this interception andevaporation go on where the surface ofthe earth is cover.il by grass and othergrowing crops. Whi ther it ls sufficientlygreater in the forest than in the field to doaway with the excess of precipitation onwooded tracts over that on cleared areas isan unsetl led quasi ion.
Of the V0 per cent of rainfall which, it isestimated, ranches the ground in forests, apart is very quickly returned to the atmos-phere by evaporation, but here the loss isconsiderably less than in the open held.Under certain condit ions it is not more than13 per cent of what il would be on bare soil,but the conditions are so various that it isdifficult to arrive at an average. Again, outof this 70 per cent of precipitation whichreaches the ground in wooded areas mustbe deducted the loss by transpiration, "theprocess by which the plant gets rid of thesurplus water after having drawn it fromthe soil in order to extract from it thenutriment which is present in only u veryhighly attenuated solution." Various in-
genious methods have been resorted to fordetermining t he amount of moisture usedin this way, but because of the many fac-
tors having to do witli it, the amount forthe various kinds of vegetation can be in-
dicated only with a wide margin for variattona,
While as it stands now nobody can say,as a result of scientific investigation,whether forests increase the full of rain,snow or dew to an appreciable extent, thereis no room for doubt that wooded areas arevaluable conservators of moisture. In thisway they muke the flow of streams moreeven, and they preserve the constancy ofsprings In wooded areas there Is loss byinterception and evaporation in tne foliageand by transpiration, and there is .i consid-
erable i;aiu in the protection from evaporatiou from the surface of the ground. It isnot probable that this conservation of thewater supply comes anywhere near themark drawn by those who hold that thepreservation of woodland Insures anabuudance of water supply, but the benefits resulting from it are sulhcient to be cousidered among the other excellent reasons forlooking well to the preservation of forests.

AT A SPECIAL SESSION.
THE COUNCILS ASKED FOR AN
EXTRA SUBSIDY.
The Provisional Government Will PayHalf the Expense of Sending the
Australia Off.
A special meeting of the Executiveand Advisory Councils was called to
order at a o'clock this afternoon by
Acting President Hatch. The follow- -
ine members were present : MinistersKing and Damon, the Attorney-General- ,
and Council men Ena, Waterhouse,Allen, Emmeluth, Tenney, Young,M rgan, Bolte and Suhr.
Minutes of last meeting were readand appr ved.
President Hatch stated that themeeting had been called to take actionupon a resolution to be offered by theFinance Minister.
Minister Damon then stated that hehad yesterday received a comtnunication from Theo. H. D. ivies & Co.,agents of the wrecked ship Miowera, tothe effect that they had concludedarrangements with the Spreckels lineby which the Australia would be dispatched for ban hrancisco onWednesday at noon, taking allthe passengers, mails and freightof the Miowera. It was alsoagreed that the Australia should bepushed s that the vessel should reachSan Francisco as early as possible nthe 17th. As the Mariposa is advertised to leave for this port on the10th. this arrangement will cive twoclear days in which to make arrangements f r send ng men, wrecking machinery, etc., by that vessel. In conelusion the agents stated that the costof the arrangement was $3000, andasked the Government to bear half theexpense.
Minister Damon then introduced a
resolution embodying the above andappropriating the sum of $1500, andfollowed it up by reciting the benefitsreceived by fruit shippers and others in
the maintainence of the new line, thatit had carried our mails for nothingand had been obliging in every wny
Heconsidered that the amount shouldbe vottd it only as an appreciation oi
past favors. The Minister furthesaid that he had been informed bCaotun Kitu and others versed III
such matters that sh( uld a soutlwesterly sale sprine up the Mioweramight be blown clear ff the reef andinto the channel which has i st b;endeepened at such great expenseHe considered it of paramountimpo rtance to obtain appliances fgetting the wreck from her presentdangerous position, and should v
for the resolution, which also containeda proviso that, in case of the loss ofthe ship, the amount should be refund-ed from the insurance money.
Councilman Watt rh. use, secondedby Mr. Emmeluth, then moved thepassage of the resolution, which waspassed unanimously.
On motion of the Attorney Generalat 2:30 the Councils went into ex-
ecutive session, presumably for the pur-
pose of considering the replies to besent to communications received by tl elast mail from Washington.
THE WRECK A FIXTURE.
The Australia Not to Go to the Mio-
wera's Relief.
Since Saturday afternoon the con
dition of the wrecked Miowera hasnot changed, and the daily attempts to
release her from her position on therocks by the aid of steimers have been
abandoned. Last night the steamerLikelike remained near the vessel, butcanne in this morning. Contrary to all
expectations, the Miowera's engineshave been found to be all right, or at
least so the chief engineer said thismorning.
When asked if the contract to float theMiowera had been awarded, the agentslurnished the information that one bidhad been received, but that more wereexpected, and that the awarding of thecontract would pr bably be postponedtill such time as other bids were re
ceived.The Australia will not be sent to the
rescue of the Miowera, as it will requireall the rem lining time for that vesselto discharge her cargo and receive onefor the return run.
Tne Australia will arrive in SanFrancisco October 18th, and the Mariposa sails for Honolulu from that portthe day after, so that there will bequick return of mails, and the CanadianPacific will have time to send tne necessarv aiioiiances for floating the vesselby the Mariposa if it desires. Meantime the Miowera is securely anchoredand it is thought she will not shift herposition far some time.
Till the wreck is removed it will notte necessary to alter the harbor-lig- h
system or disturb the pilots, as there is
jio room lot another vessel on the rocand she will answer for a light housevery well.

TO THE
Some Interesting Facts Connected With
It Obtained From Professor
Lyons' Observation.
There was an unusual demand for
smoked glass this morning with which
to view the partial eclipse of the sun,
caused by the passage of the moon
between it and the earth, but at 7
o'clock the cloudy appearance of thesky led most people to the belief thatit would not be visible here. About
7:15 the sky cleared, however, and old
S )1 shown forth in all his gl"ry. Pro-
fessor Lyons states that the eclipse
itself was the cause of this suddenclearing of the atmosphere, cooling
things up in the north and causing a
sudden current of air in that directionwhich cooled and dried the air here.
This was shown by the barometer as
well, the dew point, as meteorologists
term it, going down instead of rising as
usual, and thus showing the effect of a
cold belt passing by to the north.I'he marvellous exactness with which
astronomers predict events of this kindwas again shown in this eclipse. Predicted to occur at 7:20 A. M, It commenced exactly on the minute by theastronomical clock at the Survey Office.At first but a little black speck couldbe seen by the reporter on the northerndge of the sun, but each minutehowed it more and more plainly until
in a short time tne sun luoKea like a
twenty dollar piece with a sectionbitten out of it. 1 he black spot in-
creased in size until at 8:36, the pointof greatest obscuration, it covered morethan half the diameter and a little lessthan half the surface of the sun. Thepassage of the moon in front of thesun's surface occupied just two hoursand a half. Another astronomicaloccurrence which happened simultaneously, and was not generally knownmtside of the scientmc world, was the
conjunction ot the planet batum withthe moon.
OUT FOR A RECORD.
Louis Morningstar Interviews theStowaways.
The Star's young, though much
traveled reporter, Louis Morningstarhas succeeded in obtaining an interview
with the two stowaways on board the
Australia, their strict confinement by
Captain Houdlette notwithstanding.
The interview, in the young man's
own inimitable style, verbatim et litemtint follows :
Robert Stanley, age 16, of Stock-
ton, Cal., and J. F. Hazelqueen, age18, of Denver, Col., is kept prisonersin the S. S. Australia and are going tobe send back to 'Frisco.
I interviewed them in the placewhere thty are kept, and asked themwhat they intended to do, and youngStanley said that he and Hazelqueentried to go on the stowaway to Hono-lulu, and that is the storywas told by Hazelquern: "Westarted to beat Nellie Bly's recordaround the world without money or
pass. We climed over the bow line in
San Francisco and got in the boat as
stow aways. Unfortunate we werefound out and put in here." ana whenasked how they were treated they saidthat the boatswain treats them verykind and Mr Doyle the Waitmaiitreats em with Chicken pie and Icecream, and he is as kind to them morethan they could expect of him, andthey also said that the passangerswonted to make up a collaction andpay their fair, but the captain wouldnot allow it.
Before leaving them Louis Morning-star told them about his glob trotting,and promising them that the articalwill attract attention of some of theHonolulu citizens and who will be so
kind as' to look for their lYet'.doin.

Which Will Be Forwarded in a ShortTime The Professor's Last Let
ter About the Toads.
Numbers of curious people visitedCommissioner Marsden'i office thismorning to take a look al the consign-ment of toads received by the Australia from Professor Koebele. Theyare confined in an ingeniously arrangedbox covered with wire screening. Inthe center of the box is a zinc lankthree parts full of water, in which thetoads have been accustomed to perf rmtheir ablutions whenever necessaryduring the voyage. The space be
tween tne tank ana ihe lox is
filled with wet miss and the end-- , ofthe box have been darkened so as toinsure strict seclusion and privacyamong the toads whenever required.There are a few great big leads, whospend most of their time in sleeping, andabout seventy smaller ones, who seemquite curious as to their surroundingsand are evidently desirous of leavingtheir present comfortable Quarters andiuvesiigating the climate, soil and insect life uf the Hawaiian Isles. Theywill have a chance to do this to day,f r Mr. Marsden will take them p toa nice, cool and watered spot near thehouse at the Makiki forest this afternoon and turn them loose to forage lorthemselves. They will be well looked
fter for a few days, but if they thriveand multiply they will be let severelyalone.

A Throne for Liliuokslani.
The last report from Honolulu is
that Liliuokalani has liael her birthday,and that she celebrated it with muchprivate and personal re joicing, because"she e xpected in a few days to be in
funds and to return to the throne,""positive advices" having been receivedtroni Washington "that the restorationwill be ordered."
Probably the positive advices camefrom Nurdhoff. They siicuesl the hallucination of a disordered mind. Poor,half cvilized Liliuokalani! She reallybelieves the rraSJf Story that the American pe j.lc will utr.tge- and betray their
litical principles by se.it.ni, her ugainin her absurd throne because of thelunacy of Nordln ff and the gretd fSirtTki'is.
If the American people wen- - inclinedtt go into the tniMnt ss of n storingdeposed kings and queens, and repairing the shattered crowns and th rones Ol
effete savage chieftains, they would notstart out in that ridiculous way. Thereare sevi ral civilized kings and queensout of a i b now, and the most im-

EMINS LITTLE DAUGHTER.
What Hat Become of the Child AroundWhom All Hi Affection Clustered ?
When it si fined nu longer possible
to hope for the safety of Emin Paths,the first thought in the minds ol mm y
neiiiile must liavr been: "What h.is
become of little Karida?" Tins was
Emin's little daughter, and she was
idolized by In r father r.d accompaniedhint in all his journeys
While Brain was Governor of tiu
equatorial pr vince of Egypt he took
unto himself as wife a beautiful Abs-sinia-
woman. H was a devi h el hus-
band and his wife was worthy of bis
affection. She w.s a w man of gentle
nature and of superi. i position in herown country, and she and the famousGovernor 'i d happily together.
Two h When were born to them, n
boy and a girl. The boy di d soonafter he whs born, and, to the gn at
grief Of Einin, the mother died so nafter giving birth to the liitle gin.When Emin welcomed Stanley and hisrebel expedition on the shores i f theAlbert Nymzi, Karida was about f UT
years old. One of the best and smartest of the hundreds of Egyptian womenin the province was her nurse andguardian; but all the time that Emincould sp re from public affors and bisscientific puisuits was given to his tilthgirl. "Though she wis living in thedipths of Africa, there are many littlegirls in civibzed lands who might we!'
envy some of the educational advan-
tages i I Farida; f r her father was a
man i f rare qualities and much learning and Faiida benefited by them whena little older, as far as a child could.
Mr. Mountensy-Jephso- n, who livedlong with Emin before they went to thecoast, says that Emm was very muedevoted to the child, and was still tet-- i
ing dee ply his wife's death. " The lit
tie Faruia is all that is left to me in the
world," Emin said. Jephson says thatKarida was a very oretty little girl, notdarker in complexion than lur father,and greatly resembling him. Shelived in a large, comfortable, and nicelykept hut, surrounded by a pretty garden,in which were many orang- - and cus-
tard apple trees in full bearing.Farida was a happy and contented
little girl as long as her father hid nogreat troubles to bear him down. U .1
the day soon came when rtbils arosein the province, and they finally lookEmm pris' net, and for weeks ihey debated the question what they shouldelo with him. It was in th. se troublousdays, when the CI vemor w.is not pernutted te send any word to his little
daughter, that the poor ch Id went tc
see Jephson, accompanied by hermirsi .
"Why have you not brought myB.iba to see nie?" she said in her chi el
ish distress. Site knew that son ellungwas wrong, but could not understandwhat it was.
A few days later Jephson, who hadbeen released by the rebels on parole,was about to return down the Nile tothe place where Emin was imprisoned!and Farida came to say go tonim. Taking a necklace of beads fromher neck she gave them to Jephson.
"Take them to my B .ba," she said"They tell Farida that bud men downin Dufile do not give my Baba muc!.to eat. 'fell him to take these beadsand buy chickens with ti.em."
"Poor little thing !" says Jephson."What European child four years oldwould have thought i f such a thing ?"
Emin asked Jepbs n later il anythinghappened to bun to take care of Farida.In the end, howt ver, a pari of thertbels relented and Emin was released,and s on after, with a snvill part of Ins
followers, he started with Stanley forthe coast. A hammock was extem-
porized out of two blankets, whichwere slung on a large, light bamb u
and carried by two men. In this con-
veyance the child was carried all theway to the coast. While E".in was
piepanng to start he wrote a letter toJephson, in which he said:
"I am greatly obliged for your kindremembrance of mv uiri ; she is, of
course, here and kisses yeur hand."Two of the most respectable Zanz
bari chiels," says Jephson, "had the
honor of conveying Emin's daughter ina hamni ck to the coast, and severalarmed porters were detailed to help hisservants to carry his lugg,.ge.
After Emin had begun to recoverfrom the effects of his serious accidentat Bagamoyo, Jephson went to thehospital to bid him good by. "vVe satand talked," he says, "over the experiences we had passed through togettn r
of his future and that of the littleFarida. F.uiin said he had d. ided t
remain in Africa, and that he wouldkeep his daughter with him. H
would like to educate her in (i imany,he said, but nothing would induce hrto part with her. There was timenough yet for her education, and,meanwhile, he could superintend itsearly stages himself.
So when Emin once more set hisface toward the great lakes il.e iittltgirl went with hun; and, indeed, it wouldhave breiken her heart to be left behind. Centra! Africa was the on y
home she had ever known, and heifathtr, though to i overwhelmed with
cares to g.ve all the time he wouldhavi: liked to his chiid, yet filled themost of hrr word. Emin took thelittle girl to Jiukobi, the station hefounded on Victoria Nyanza.
Did Emin leav.' Farida behind whenhe started on that last fatal expedition?There may be persons in Europe who
know, but the facts hve certainly netbeen published. If En. in left her atBukobj, it was the first time in her life
that he voluntarily separated himselffrom her. If he took her with him, noone can tell wh t her fate has beenShe may hive been kill; d with her
father and the rest of the car-va- n,
or her life may have been spared, 60
that some d ly she may grace the haremof one of the Arab murderers. Per-
haps her fate will never be known. llFarida is sUve y she is about nineyears old.
RUSKIN'S WEDDING ROMANCE.
The lory of Hm Eccntrlc Critic's Mar- -
rhiKi mill IMvorce.John Hunkin did n .touiycly wayward
thing ..hen he ennsciuri to get married.He did a most erratic rend, o the public, amoo Inexplicable thing when he aeranftedfor hit divorce. He had no fc:,d some ofthe loftiest tradition nlion.' womanhoodthat men sometime read and talk about,and lie look. for MaMsal companion. Oneiii.Kht he- - met her m the drawing mom of nLondon friend, w ho, without me knowingIt, had hronifbi the young lady to meet theeye-- . if ihs great writer.
It was a June night. RewaaSB. and shelooked like gGftes goddess, Hs waadaavSled, the wax a tall, graceful girl of 19,with a face and fliturt' as fault lews as one ofthe-- statues of old. No one ever expectedRaskin to fall in love, and he did not. Shewas poor, ncrded a home and its eumforls,and so they wen married.
Their life was peaceful, friendly.kindly to the highest degree, but there wasnot a spark of affection to enlighten tbeirexistence, She admired the great man she.had married and was grateful for the wealt hand OOmfort he showered on her. He Wor-shiped her as he would the niarlde madelifelike by I he sculptor's chisel.
here was nothing binniin about Ihe lifethey led as husband and wife, and she wasa woman Who in her heart , like all trueWomen, laughed at the traditions thatmade her sex love distant worship.
One day Ruskin brought an artist topaint his wife's picture. And the man wasMillais, and be was a bright, cheery, lianel-om- e
fellow, human every inch of him, witha great and nhsorbing love for the beautifuland a willingness to toll of his love.
He lwgan to paint, the portrait of themagnificent woman, and when he had
he was in love wit h his friend's wife.Womanlike she saw It, and perhaps shewas not full of sorrow and reproach. Itwas the first tribute of real manly love thathud ever laid at her feet.
And Ruskin! His wide eyes saw tho ro-
mance that w as weaving around those twolives, anil his heart realized how little af-
fection he had to lavish on the woman hehad made his wife. How he told her thestory of his pride in her, ami the sacrificehe was to make for her, w hile she lay proneat his feet. Is one of the things which onlyhe or she could tell.
It i difficult to obtain a divorce in Eng-land, hut John Raskin secured it for her,and one bracing morning in the early win-ter, a month after the divorce was granted,Ruskin stood beside the couple in one ofLondon's quiet churches and saw themmade man and wife.
That was a good many years ago, Bindsince then Millais has become rich and fa-
mous and is now Sir John, and his wife isBIT Lady Millais. The warmest, sturdiestfriend the struggling painter had in histoiling days was the man whose wile hehad married, and through all the years ofMillais' later success and greater honorJohn Ruskin has been the welcome guestand dally visitor to the man and womanwhose lives he so unselfishly crow lied w ithhappiness.
It is a strange story, anil the world knowslittle about it, and some men have
him, as some women have censuredher. Rut Ihe two men and that one womanwho knew best have been lmpp and con-
tented with thechange that John Ruakin'apure unselfishness brought into their lives.And so the world should not complain.Chicago News.

bishop of Cauterb.iry when he was headmaster of Wellington college: ( hie elay theprince consort attended by a sing e etpierrySoda over to Wellington and arrived justas the doctor was about toaddreSS bis hoys.The prince expressed a wish that the mas-ter should proceed in hi presence. Havingwith bare bead, as etiquette demanded,shown the prince to a seat, he turned to theboys, and replacing his cap begun lecturingthem. Just then ihe equerry hurried upauei nudged him on the elbow,
"Dr. Benson," said he."Yes," replieel the doctor."Ills royal highness is present," whis-
pered the equerry."I am proud to know it," vvus the an-
swer.The doctor had spoken scarcely a half
dozen words before tho courtier agaUi brokein:
"Dr. Benson, vve all remain uncovered inhis royal highness1 prescne ."
"I am 1ms royal highness' most humbleand !' yol ed servant," rejoined the doctor,at the le bowing low, with uncovered hi U e prince.

Memory Impression on in BrainIt is Computed by leading physiologists
that since one-thir- d of a second au nice toproduce un impression on thu bruin, a manwho has lived to lie 1(10 yearsold must havecollected upon the foldsof his brain matterat least 11,407,80,0110 impressions. Or, again,take off one-thir- for Bleep, and we still findnot less than 0,811, 610,000 intlentat ionsmemory's finger marks on and in thebrain. This would give 8,155,700,000 separ-ate waking impressions to the man wholives to be but 50 years old.
Allowing an average weight of fourpounds to the brain, deduct forblood and other vessels and attachments,and another fourth for external integu-ment, and we still find that each separategrain of brain matter contains 205, 5412tracesor impression of ideas. Of course, thesecalculations mid general deductions mustbe applied according to the temperamentof the individual.

I i. hi. In Knrope.On the crowded .Munich railway platform
a soft southern voice was saying: "Honey,don't set down there right in the way;they'll tromp on you." A small girl rosetip, clasping to her bosom a cigar box witha perforated cover. There was somethingcurious about this box, because hurriedtravelers who came too near it started sud-denly awuy and regarded ihe little partyof three, an old lady atel two children, withundisguised honor. After some space ofstruggling with the intricacies of that badlyepellcd and poorly pronounced Englishwhich dwellers beyond the Rhine ohoaae tocall their German tongue, it was delightfulto hear the accent lot one's native laud, andan excuse was seized upon to make the oldlady's acquaintance.
She was from Georgia and knew no othertongue than her ow n, Siie was 05 years ofage and was traveling for the first time inEurope with her two small grandchildren.She had experienced no difficulty whatever,and, indeed, without u word of Germanmanaged to secure for herself on this occa-sion Ihe best carriage and get her luggageattended to before any oneelse by ineredintof genlle, sweet voiced persistence. TheTeutonic official merely shrugged help-lessly aud obeyed when she said: "Xo, yo'don't take that bag yo hear me! Set itright down there like I tell yo',"all in tonesas soft as rose LettVf s.
Another traveler at this moment shiedviolently away from the lit; le girl's box,from winch the serpent iike heads were be-
ing thrust, and this attracted the old lady'sattention, can .ing her to ask gent l :
"Honey, ain't those turkies of vo'rs hun-gry f"
"Yes, granduiaw, I reckon they are,"said thu child. "They ain't been fed sincewe left Fluwrence." And the train cur-ried tho Georgians and the hungry turtlesawuy. Cor. Harper's Basar,

ed to tell an amusing incident which oc-
curred during his term of offiOB, A bill waspassed regulating the size of apple barrels,which was of so trivial a character that thegovernor vel oed it.
In the following Bummer an old farmerfrom the Mohawk valley came Into the ex-
ecutive chamber, and producing a letter ofIntroduction, said:
"Governor, I've come to ask you to par-don my son out of st ate's prison. He's beenthere goin on two year, and his tttne'U beup in about two months. Harvest is cominon in two or three weeks, governor, and Ikind o' thought I should like to have himup to the farm. He'd be quite handy. Don'tyou think you could elo itr"
"There was something about him," saidthe governor, "that impressed mo he was agood old fellow, aud I told him 1 wouldpardon his hoy."
The old mun beamed with delight androse to take his departure,
"I thank you, governor, for pardoiiinhimnow, because hands are scurce, and on be-
half of my neighbors 1 thank you for veto-i-n

Wampole'sTastelessPreparation
OF
Cod Liver Oil.It aims to cure Consumption,
Hits the Mark, too, and itmost effectually breaks upColds,Coughs, Hoarseness and allThroat and Lung troubles thatcause this disease.
It is natural logic to concludethat if Wamtole's Puliakationof Cod Livkr Oil has powerto prevent Consumption, it sure-ly is able to cure these leaseremergencies.
This vigor-makin- g, fat pro-ducing preparation is Absolute-ly Tasteless, in so far as CodLiver Oil is concerned. Allyou notice is a delightful flavorof Wild Cherry and Anise.
But the purest NorwegianCod Liver Oil is there all theSitme. It is a great blood en-rich-
Best of all it is a natu-ra- lfood that in its stomachic
eftects, actually assists its ownassimilation.
In Pulmonary or Bronchiatroubles it is unequalled. Noone doubts the value of CodLiver Oil, but not every one isable to take it.
WAMPQIi'S PREPARATION
removes the nauseous objectionand actually makes Cod LiverOil palatable.
