The local police had asiroog\nforoe in the yards, when the train left, while\nthe tracks were guarded by policemen stationed at all the crossings from there to Bay-\non. The train consisted of an engine and\ntwenty box oars. These were packed with\nmiscellaneous freight and will be left at\nvarious points along the road as far as Buffalo, the run requiring eight hours. There\nwere no strikers in the crowd.

Tbe only stretch of\ntrack that can be at all operated is the\neast bound track'\"from Buffalo to\nManchester. The ticket office at\nthe Washington street depot has been\nclosed, and no attempt is being made to\ncarry passengers over the road. The yards\nare full of stalled freight trains, and the\nthirteen yard engines at work are kept busy\nmarshalling the stalled freights delivered to\nthe Lehigh from other roads.

The\ncorrespondence snows that Superintendent\nRollin Wilber absolutely refused to receive\nthe committee of employees, stating that he\nwould only meet the men individually with\none or two representatives.

The question asked is: Will the State\nDepartment officially take any notice of it,\nand the general expectation it that it will\nnot. The course ef the Department towards\nThurston appears to be that of quietly ignoring him in his diplomatic oapacity. This is\nindicated by Thurston himself by the assertion that no copy of Blount's report had\nbeen officially transmitted to. him.\nSealed Dispatches.\nSan Francisco, Nov. 22.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdOfficial Washington ' despatches for Minister Willis and\nAdmiral John Irvin were sent out yesterday\non the Paoific Mail steamer China, whioh\nwill touch at Honolulu on her way to the\nOrient.

The blocks destroyed are on Worthington streot* As\nfollows: A five story biick owned by J. W.\nWebber, Grocer; two five story brick\nblocks owned by J.

They found ohemicals, formula; for\nmaking bombs, percussion cape, pistols and\ndocuments showing that the club was the\nheadquarters of an extensive organization,\nwith branches in many places in Spain and\nabroad. Miguel Naoer, president of the\nclub, and two women who were\nwith him at the house were arrested.\nLater in tbe day the police searched\nthe house of an anarchist named Pablo Ber-\nnat, in the vicinity of Mont Juich and found\na quantity of incendiary literature. Mont\nJuich, it will be recalled, is the place where\nPallas, the anarchist who attempted to\nassassinate General Martinez Campos, expiat-\ned his crime. The discovery by the police is\nsupposed to have prevented a repetition of\nthe dastardly outrage committed at the\nLyceum theatre a short time ago when over\n30 persons were killed by the explosion of a\nbomb thrown fiom a gallery. A despatch\nfrem Perpignan, France, states that two\nItalians wno have been arrested there are\nbelieved to have been implicated in the\ntheatre outrage.\nPreparing for Spring Business.\nEnid, Oklahoma, Nov. 22.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe settlers\nof a township of the county \"L\" have organized a vigilance committee, with D.

They have traced many anarchists to Lyons, Bordeaux, St. Etienne,\nLille and even Algoa, and have seized any\nnumber of documents, although they have\nmade few arrests. The authorities in Lille\nwere well frightened this week by printed\nleaflets dated from London. The authorities\nof the leaflet declared that they would blow\nup the town hall, the prefecture of police\nand the palace of fine arts. A rigorous\nwatch has been kept over all these buildings,\nbut uo signs of dynamite have beep discovered.\nThe Debats prints an interview with\nGeneral Martinez De Campos, commander\nof the troops in Barcelona, Spain. Campos\nthinks that there are barely two hundred\nanarchists in the city of Barcelona and that\nbut fifteen or twenty of this number are\ndynamiters. The turbulence of these few,\nCampos says, had given rise to the idea that\nin Barcelona they were numerous and without exception desperate. It was still necessary to exercise surveillance and\nintroduce special laws tc control even\nthe few dynamiters in the oity.\nCampos was able to give the assurance\nthat at the opening of ihe Cortez Government it would introduce a proposition to\nhave ait anarchist offenders tried by military or special tribunals. Probably the\nGortez Government would, he said, adopt\nmeasures interdicting all anarchist publications, forbidding anarchist meetings, making provision for the rigorous treatment of\npersons of anarchist antecedents, and specifying exceptionally severe punishment for all\npersons found in possession of explosives.\nThe rigor of these precautions has been\ndoubled in these troublous times.\nCholera Spreading.\nConstantinople, Nov. 22.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdOwing to\nfrequent rains, the cholera has spread here\nrecently.

C., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1893.\nSTEVENS EXPOSES HARRISON'S HAND\nThe   Ez-Minlster   Makes a Strong   Plea\nfor American Interests in Hawaii.\nBoston, Nov. 22.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Ex-U.S. Minister John\nL. Stevens gave a lecture this evening in a\nlyceum course at West Somerville, to a\ncrowded audience, on Hawaiian affairs. Before beginning his address he remarked that\nduring bis thirteen years' service as United\nStates minister, under five presidents, he\nhad invariably refused to recognize political\nparties in his own country, believing that in\nour foreign relations our policy should be\nnational and continuous, always with united\nfront to our foreigu rivals. He had firmly\nrefused to consider the Hawaiian question a\npartisan question in any sense. Mr. Stevens\nthen said:\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdOur interest in Hawaii appertains to at least three questions, more or\nless distinct from each other, though they\ncannot be considered entirely separate.\nThere is the question of Christian civilization, the question of American future commercial power in the Pacific and the third\ninvolves the issue of responsible government\nunder the American flag, in harmony with\npledged American faith, the best American\nantecedents and the plain logic of American\nhistory and American opportunities. At\nthe date of her downfall Liloukalaai was\nwithout the sympathy and aid of the best of\nthe native Hawaiians and of all the respectable and responsible white residents of the\nIslands. Not a hand was lifted in\ndefense of the semi-barbarian throne when\nit fell, conclusively disproving the assertion\nof the unscrupulous agent of the fallen\nQseen, sent to Washington to secure as\nlarge a sum of money as possible for conveying to our Government all her right and\ntittle to the Hawaiian throne and to the\ncrown lands to which she had never had any\nother claims than to the income along as\nshe reigned. This agent before embarking\nfor Washington made sure of a large advance\nfee of thousands of dollars which the fallen\nQueen paid out of her own\npurse and he thought it\nmight help his case by the utterly baseless\nstatement that the United States Minister\nand naval commander had deprived Liluo-\nkalani of her throne. In presenting themselves for admission into the American\nUnion the islands come under more American aspects than any of our previously annexed states or territories, as the\nfacts I have just stated abundantly attest. Why should they not be\npermitted to come under the flag so\ndeeply loved in the Islands? It is literally\neorrect to say that according to the Hawaiian census tables of 1890, there were then\nbut about two thousand persons residing in\nHawaii, who were born in the United States.\nBut in addition to these a large part of the\nseventy-five hundred born on the Islands of\nfoieign parentage and put down as Hawiians\nare of American parentage and they make\nan important portion of the American\ncolony. They were educated in American\nideas and sentiments.\nTheir leading men being graduates of\nAmerican schools and colleges. Some of\nthese served in the army of the Union during the war of the rebellion, suffered in rebel\nprisons and bear on their persons honorable\nscars. But I hear a whisper in the air, \"Let\nthe Islands vote on the question.\" This demand comes from three distinct sources. It\nwas first made by the British Minister at\nHonolulu, a Tory in his political views, a\npersistent antagonist of American interests\nand by personal bonds and family relations\nstrongly attached to the fallen Hawaiian\nmonarchy. Immediately after its organization in January last, he urged thia plan on\nthe Provisional Government. This scheme\nwas subsequently brought forward by the\nQueen's attorney.\nThe lottery and opium rings, of which\nthe fallen Queen's lawyer ia believed to be\nthe agent favored the plan. While the\nultra tory English have purposes in view,\nother than those of the fallen Queen and\nthe lottery and opium rings, they are agreed\naa to the method of defeating annexation.\nThis ex-Queen's attorney has often been the\npaid agent of Claus Spreckels, and the latter\nmakes part of the alliance to kill annexation\nby the plebiscum. This is an alliance as\npowerful as it is disreputable; and is not ad-\nmissable by honest Americans.\nAmerica cannot get rid of her future responsibilities if she would, and all attempts\nto do so will be at the cost of future generations.\nInspired by these great truths; in the\nname of what is most sacred in Christian\ncivilization; in behalf of a noble American\ncolony, bravely holding the advanoed post\nof America's progress; in behalf of the remnant of the native Hawaiian race now living\nin those sunny isles; in behalf of\n-every and all men who have choaen their\npermanent homea in that threatened land,\nwhoae chief men and devoted women are\nstruggling for better future, I cherish the\nfaith that the Amerioan people, the American statesman and the American Government\nthoughtful of America's   great   future and\nfreat responsibilities, will settle the\n[awaiiau queation wiaely and well; will\ntake care that the flag of the United Statea\nfloats unmolested over the Hawaiian Islands\nand that henoeforth it shall be a moral and\npolitical treason to remove or sti ike it down.\nElections in Paris.\nMadrid, Nov. 22.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdIn the municipal\neleotiona held throughout Spain, on Sunday\nlast, half the electorate abstained from voting. A notable feature of the elections waa\nthe gains by the Carliats. They have gained\nseats even outside the Northerly provinces,\nwhere they have always been atrong. The\ndefeat of Republican candidates is attributed\nto divisions in that party, and the absentation from voting on the part of Federalists\nand Zorilists. The results are generally\nconsidered as success tor the Government.\nReport Contradicted.\nNew York, Nov. 22.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe Associated\nPress Cable despatch, printed thia morning\nstates that the report that Meshed, one of\nthe chief cities of Persia, had been destroyed\nby an earthquake waa untrue. The United\nPreaa correctly atated that the town of\nKuohan, in Persia, had been destroyed.\nInquiries cabled to-day elicit a confirmation\nof the United Preaa atory, and ahow that\nthere was no foundation for the Associated\nPress' statement that Meshed waa affected\nby the disaster which befel Kuohan.\n- Another Strike.\nSayrh, Pa., Nov. 23.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdAll of the \"hoat-\nlers\" and wipera employed in the large Lehigh Valley round houae here went out at\nnoon to-day,\t\nJob Printing.\nThe Tbleoram job plant is now in position to do all kinds of job printing on\nthe shortest notice.

The time will soon\nbe here when improvements must be made\nfor the larger flocks of birds, and a gpnera!\nspringtime cleaning, repairing, improving\nand enlarging of the poultry yard will be\nneeded. There is nothing more inviting on\na farm than a large, well-stocked poultry\nyard, where birds of ev9ry variety are to lw\nfound, to give life and zest to tbe scene. But\nthe beauty of the scene is only of secondary\nimportance, for it is the question of utility\nwhich most concerns the farmer.\nWe must have a good large range for the\nbirds iu the spring and tutmner if we ure expecting them to do much. Tho poultry enjoy the change from the pent-up winter\nquarters to the wide, airy summer range,\nwhere they can pick up their own living.\nThere are one or two things essential to the\nfowl. Let them, if possible, have a wood-\nlaud range as early as convenient. There\nare so many things for them to pick up In\nthe woods, such as worms, grubs\nseeds and berries, that they can\nfind half their living there. Besides\nthis, they love to roam around in the underbrush, scratching the cool soil up beneath the\ntrees and shrubs, wallowing there on hot\ndays. If there is a small woodland attached\nto the farm, in which it is desired to keep\ndown the thick under-growth, this can be\ndone by turning the fowl into it for a summer range. They will nip the young plants\nin the bud, and gradually rub down much\nof the underbrush.\nThe .summer range should also include if\nIt is possible a small lake, pond or stream of\nwater. Where such a body of water cannot\nbe found ou the farm it will pay to dig a\nsmall pond. This is almost indespensable to\nthe ducks, and tbe chicken will And considerable pleasure in walking around its edges\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdnd picking up different things which the\nwaters wash up to the banks. Thoy will\nsoon learn to come down here to get their\ndrink, and even to wash themselves occasionally. Ol course the best tiling Is to have an\nactive lake or pond, where the water is kept\nfresh and clear all of the time, or a stream\nof water will answer the purpose nearly as\nwell. If neither of those can be obtained\nthe sniall, home-made pom! must be resorted\nto.\nThe summer range should lastly include\na part of the fields where the fowls cau run\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdbout and pick up a part of their living.\nThis, however, will have to be shut off\nwhen crops are growing, but during a part\nof the year the fields can be used in this\nway. The fowl will do a groat deal of\ngood in cleaning them of noxious insect*\nand weeds, as well as putting fat on their\nown bodies at no cost to tlio owner. Generally speaking, the jMultryman does non\ngive his birds sufficient range for a proper\ndevelopment of their frames, and heucs\nloss conies through tho lack of heavy\nweight. The barnyard birds need exercise\nand freedom of range, the same as all other\nlivestock on tlio farm, aud after their long\nwinter confinement they should bo treated\nto as much freedom as advisable. Better\nchickens for the market aud more and better\neggs will l)e the result. Chickens always do\nbettor where they are forced to earn a part\nof their living, and in this respect they re\ufffd\ufffd\nsemble many other living creatures. When\ncooped up in narrow quarters, and made to\ndepend upon their owners for everything\nthey get to eat, they become weak and very\nsusceptible to disease. There are not the\nconveniences on every farm to give the poultry woodland range, a lake of water aud\nlarge fields to roam about, but there is not a\nfarm in the country Where at lenst one of\nthese conveniences cannot be given. Then\nby all means lot the poultry appreciate the\ncoming of the spring weather by giving them\na complete change iu quarters.\nTimber and Crude Oil.\nI have been interested in the study of\npreserving boards, fence posts, shingles, etc.,\nWith crude oil, says a correspondent in the\nAlbany Cultivator, aud I believed that this,\noil added to their durability. Iu the fall of\n1887 I saturated my barn roof, freshly laid\nwith hemlock sbiugles, with the oil. It did\nsplendidly in holding tbem to place and\nnot lettiug them warp or split; neither did\nthey water-soak iu three or four days' rain;\nbut I fear they will give out in two years\nmore, for on recent examination I And the\nwood soft, of no thinness, in a state of dry\nrot. On raising a shingle with the point of\nmy knife to look under it broke square off\nat the but of the one above. Then going\nwhere I stored the oil I found two sticks\nfour inches thick on which tho barrel had\nlain four years thoroughly soaked with oil,\nrotted and mashed to the ground under the\nbarrels, while those three feet away were\ncomparatively souud. Then I made it my\nbusiness to see a gentleman who had followed the crude oil tank building business\nfor many years, and sold: \"How is it yon\nare taking out timber frame in these tanks\nso oftenf\" He replied: \"Oh, the oil rots\nthem out evory three or four years, being\nsoaked in it so much of the time.\" Then,\nagain, three years is the average life of a\nfourteen-inch square timber used as a mudsill for au oil derrick, i, here oil is spattered\nfreely ou aud about it daily. Also there are\nmany wagons about the country with hubs\nruined from ihe use of crude oil on them.\nA Cow's Milk Easily Poisoned.\nWhy should we protect animals t I have\ntold you already one reasou\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdbecause every\ncruelty the animal suffers just before death\npoisons the meat.\nNow I am going to tell you another.

It was\nthe occaison of his eightieth birthday. Although the President does not usually appear\nat any but Cabinet houses, he departed from\nthe custom in this instance as an especial\nmark of respect to the gentleman in whose\nhonor the reception was given.\nMrs. Harrison was also present and in the\nearly part of the evening they stood near the\nhost. Later they moved into the second\ndrawing-room. While there the President\nnoticed a lady smiling at him, as if she expected some mark of recognition. After\nawhile she came toward him, still with the\nsame look of expectancy. When quite near,\nthe President gave her his hand and said:\n' 'Good evening, madam, I am glad to see\nyou.\"\nShe looked at him delightedly and said, \"I\njust felt sure when I saw you entering the\nroom that I had met or known you, but will\nyou excuse me if I ask you your name? It\nhas slipped my memory.\"\nThe people who heard it enjoyed the\ntwinkle in the eye and the half-humorous\ngravity on the President's face as ho courteously gave the desired information. In another minute the episode was being retailed\nall over the house.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd{New York Tribune.\nAt the Baptism.\n\"What name do you give this child!\" said \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nwestern preacher to a couple who had\nbrought their baby some distance to be baptized.\n\"Luthy, thir,\" lisped the bashful mother,\nand the pastor, who was a lit'le deaf, exclaimed in horror:\n\"Lucifer!

We are sorry,\nindeed, to cause our Victoria neighbor any\nunnecessary alarm, but aa it only looks at\nprovincial affairs through the goggles of the\nrankest kind of an oppositionist, we\ncan overlook ita objections. To set\nour contemporary's mind at eaBe\nwe can assure it we are making no bids on\nbehalf of any particular government. What\nwe did do was to point out the mistake of a\ncommunity electing representatives to the\nProvincial Legislature who can be so blindly\nled by the Times and other Opposition organs like it, in the sole effort to defeat the\nGovernment, that they overlook the interests of their constituents. The Timet\ncan also rest assured that Nanaimo\nwill elect the \"right Bort\" next time\nand in doing so she will elect men who will\nlook after her interest, the Timet and all\nother opposition organs in this city and\nelsewhere \"to the contrary notwithstanding.\" The phrases quoted are not our own;\nwe have only borrowed them for present UBe\nbelieving they would fill the bill better than\nanything else we conld scrape up. We\nmention this because they are a little an\n\"the inferior,\" and although well known in\nsome quarters, might not be recognized by\neverybody.\nNOTES AND COMMENTS. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nThe Empire says: The Americana are\natealing our hay or at leaat trying to rob it\nof its good reputation. They are labelling\ntheir shipments to England \"Canadian hay,\"\nand thus they get an advantage in the market. For years thoy did the same thine;\nwith their cheese, but after a while the\nBritisher became educated and learned to\nappreciate a good article when he saw it.\nThe juicy and sucoulent grass which Canada\nsends ont can \"knock the apota off \" anything American,and exportera aoroaathe line\nknow it. Another proof that Canada ia to\nthe fore in most things.\nIn marked contrast with the Canadian returns, which show a considerable increase in\nrevenue and a considerable reduction in expenditure, are those which oome from the\nUnited Statea. The offioial returna from\nWashington of the comparative receipt* and\nexpenditures oi the United Statea, issued on\nthe first of the present month, shows that\nfor the first four months of the current fiscal\nyear the expenditures have exceeded the re\noeipts by $24,000,000, or at the rate of $72,-\n000,000 a year. The receipts are f27,900,000\nlass than for the corresponding four months\nof the previous fiscal year, and the sxpendi\ntures are nearly $1,000,000 greater than for\nthe same period.\nIn the spring of 1890, aaya the Montreal\nGazette, a young man namsd Edward T.\nAlgie, went f.om Brockville to Watertown,\nN. Y., looking for work. Like many another Canadian who has left his native land\nfor tha States, Algie found be had gone\nfurther to fare worse. He eould get no\nemployment, and he waa helpless and homeless among strangers. In his extremity he\napplied for help to the looal overseer of the\npoor, asking for the loan of enough money\nto pay his fare to Syracuse. The overseer\ngave him $2.25, whioh Algie promised to\nrepay\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdbut the overaeer had heard\nthat promise so often that he did\nnot pay muoh heed to it. Last weak,\nhowever, he received a post-card from\nBrockville asking what was tha amount of\nthe loan, and since then tha young Canadian haa freed himaelf from hia indebtedness\nto ths United States overseer. This is only\nths second case the overseer can remember\nin the course of hia long experience in whioh\nhelp rendered has been repaid, and it is\ncreditable to Edward T. Algie that be has\ncleared off the debt. It should further bs\nnoted that ha waa not able to do ao till he\ngot baok to Canada. There ia a moral in\nthe whole story for Canadians who think to\nbetter themaelves by emigration to the\nStates.\nFoundered In a Gale.\nLondon, Nov. 22.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe Britiah bark\nWavelet, bound from Boston for Arnndet,\nsprang a leak during a gale in the North\nSea and foundered.

The Bulla had\ncontrol of the market at the stock exchange\nto day except in the case of General Electric\nwhich was weak irom start to finish. Ths\ndialings in this stock amounted to 3,330\nshares with a grand total of 301,000 shares.\nThe first transactions were at 39J and then\nthe stook gradually settled down to 35J.\nSuppoit waB lacking and the rumors\nwhich have been current about the\nproperty for the past aii months were\nagain called into service. During the\ngreater part of the day the railway lists\npresented a strong front and the heaviness\nof General Electric had no effect. The\nbuying for foreign account at thn opening\nassisted the \"Bulls.\" Auother important\nfactor was the buying of first-class railway\nmortgages by leading iflstltutinns. The glut\nof money is compelling institutions and\ncapitalists to bay bonds. There is\nlittle or no demand for money for\nspeculative or business purposes to day. A\nleuding broker placed one million of dollars\nat 1%, on call of time.

Then the man said a few words\nin French to the bear,who made apolite\nhow and began dancing. The crowd\napplauded.\nThe bear cast coquettish glances left\nand right and started to do some fancy\nsteps with high kicking liberally interspersed. Just then a policeman pushed\nhis way through the crowd just in time\nto catch the bear in the act of executing a kick of the Lottie Collins' variety.\nThe crowd applauded, but the policeman frowned.\n\"Who owns the bear?\" he asked.,\nThe Frenchman stepped forward and\nsaid that he and the bear owned each\nother.\n\"I'm going to arrest him,\" saidtheol-\nficer.\n\"Oui, monsieur,\" answered the other,\nand spoke a few words in French to the\nbear.\nThat intelligent animal immediately\nassumed a posture of defense, and\nfeinted with the left pa* for the policeman's abdomen. Then it opened a\nmouth that looked particularly full of\nsharp teeth.\nStepping back, the officer said: \"Tell\nhim to come along peaceably and it'll be\nbetter for him, and you come along,\ntoo.\"\nThe man and the animal put their\nheads together and decided to go along.\nFive minutes later, at the police station, a charge of causing a crowd to collect was made against the man. The\nbear was held as an accessory. Man\nand bear spent the night together in\none cell.\nNext morning they were escorted to\nthe Jefferson Market court, where the\nbear made his bow to the judge. The\nman* who did the talking for the pair,\nsaiil they had come from Montreal and\nwere on their way to France.\n\"Well, this court won't prevent you,\"\nsaid the judge. \"You're discharged,\nboth of you.\"\nThe good news of their discharge\nwas communicated to the bear, who\nhad in the meanwhile been establishing friendly relations with the court\nofficer, and was engaged in poking his\nnose into the officer's pocket in search\nof peanuts.\nAfter making a polite bow to the\njudge, the two left the court room, followed by many of the court room\nloungers.\nA few weeks ago the crew of the seal-\ning.schooner Oscar had a lively experience off Clayoquot, a little place on\nVancouver island. One seal had been\ncaught early in the morning, and at\nabout ten o'clock the hunter in one of\nthe boats noticed two heads some twenty yards in front of him. The fog partly\nobscured objects at any distance, and\nthe hunter thought the heads were those\nof seal. He shot, and the discharge of\nhis gun was followed by a shriek of agony from one of the animals, which at\nonce made for the boat. The men then\nbecame aware that a large female walrus, wounded and' infuriated, was after\nthem. She rose up out of the water,\nand grasping this side of the boat with\nher powerful tusks tried to overturn it.\nThere was a fight of several minutes,\nthe men endeavoring to beat the walrus off with oar blades and paddles.\nFinally a shot through the head killed\nher, and she was towed back to the\nschooner as the great prize of the sea-\n*(W.\nINSURANCE\nMARCUS WOLFE\nREAL   ESTATE\nTPTTxr A -NTOIA-Xi  jt^tsTD   Q-EIISnEIR.A.Ij   OOjVtJVCTSSTOIT   BROKIIEIR\nRoom 11, Johnston Block, Commercial Street, Nanaimo, B.

It\nappeared as though the sea was effected by\nsome tremendous pressure. Suddenly the\nwhole ship fore and aft was enveloped in\nsheets of Same half way np the masts and\nfrom stem to stern. The crew ran out of\nths forecastle panic stricken. This lasted\nfor a quarter of an hour, everybody on board\nmomentarily expecting to see the ships\nmasts go. How the three lower topsails\nstood it the captain cannot understand. He\nsays that he never before had such an experience.

An incident of the\nrecent visit of the emperor of Russia to\nhis father-in-law, the king- of Denmark,\nat the palace of Amalienborg, is creditable to the czar, though it put him for\na moment in a ridiculous light.\nEarly one morning, soon after the\narrival of the czar at Amalienborg, the\nsentinels who were guarding the garden of the palace were astonished to\nsee the emperor come running out of\nthe palace in slippers and shirt-sleeves,\ngesticulating wildly and shouting\nloudly.\nThe soldiers knew not what to do.\nHad the autocrat of all the Russians\nlost his reason or been attacked by\nsome mysterious enemy?\nThe czar soon answered the question\nby rushing to the corner of the garden\nwhere a great barking and howling\nwas going on. From the window of his\nsleeping room he had seen one of his\nbig dogs make an attack on the favorite black eat of King Christian, of Denmark, and without waiting to summon\na servant, or even to put on a coat, he\nhad rushed out to rescue the cherished\npussy.\nHe saved the cat, and no doubt\nearned the lasting gratitude oi the\nking, his host.\nOn the Equator.\nIn one respect, at least, Quito, the\ncapital of Ecuador, is a unique city. It\nis situated in both the northern and\nsouthern hemispheres, a distinction\nclaimed by no other place of importance on the globe. At Quito the sun\nrises and sets at six o'clock the year\nround. You may forget to wind your\nwatch while you are visiting the\nEcuadorian capital, but you need not\nhunt up a regulator\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdset it when the\nsun rises or sets and you will be sure to\nbe right.\nON   PESCADERO   BEACH.\nThere, In the Earthly raradlse, the Floor\nIs Paved with f'euis.\nNearly all the varieties of quartz,\nchalcedony and opal are found on the\nPeseadero shore, except the iridescent,\nprecious opal. Among the innumerable variety are seen the reddish brown\njasper opal and a clear green stone\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nquite rare\ufffd\ufffd\ufffderroneously termed \"emerald.\" What is here called topaz, in the\nopinion of \"Helen F. Lowe, who writes\nabout it in Lippincott's, is probably a\nvaluable yellow opal known as the\nfalse topaz. Chalcedony affords the\nbeautiful red and pink earnelians that\ndeepen in color with exposure to the\nsun, and also the moss agates found\nprincipally on Agate beach. Onyx,\nsardonyx and banded agates display\ntheir dark tones of gray, black and dull\nred, among the high lights of pearly\nmoon stones, sparkling water crystals\nand the brilliant, fiery luster of the\nchatoyant opals. Stones closely resembling smoky quartz\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdvery beautiful in\ntheir clear, deep tint\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand others resembling rose quartz are sometimes found.\nIn addition to the gems mentioned,\nthere is an infinite number of unclassified pebbles of every color, tint and\nshape. A curious and beautiful stone\nrecently found on Pebble beach was of\na clear bright yellow, half an inch long\nand shaped exactly like an acorn in the\neup. Most of the stones are perfect in\ntheir natural state and well repay setting.\nThe deposit varies with the tide.\nWhere to-day lies a .glinting bank of\nstones, to-morrow shines a clear stretch\nof sand, swept by the waves bare as a\npolished floor. First one beach and\nthen another absorbs the attention of\nyoung and old. How they dig with\ntheir wooden paddles! And what careless attitudes of abandon are assumed!\nGray-headed bankers and brokers, staid\nmatrons and dainty maids, alike yield\nto the charm of pebble picking. Many\na vow is made that auother day shall\nfind them at other sport, 3*et the morrow finds ull again by the sea, eager\nand joyous as ever.\nHank Notes for Fuel.\nA novel spectacle of a steam vessel\nbeing stokt'd with bank notes was witnessed recently at a Mediterrrnean\nport. Forty-five sacks of the apparently valuable paper were forced into the\nftirnaee of the vessel's boiler under the\neyes of the stokers, who seemed to desire to possess themselves of at least a\nhandful of what they somewhat inelegantly styled \"rum fuel.\" The notes\nwere cancelled documents of the Bank\nof Algiers, whose manager watched the\ncombustion.\nDividing a Deer with an Indian.\nMaj. Champion, in his book: \"On\nthe Frontier,\" describes a deer hunt,\nin the course of which he found his\ndog astride the dead body of the deer,\nwhile an Indian stood a little way off,\nbow and arrow in hand. By sign he\nmade the white man understand that\nhe had wounded the deer, and the dog\npulled it down. Then he cut up the\ndeer, tied the fore half of it up in the\nskin, and placed it on one side. The\nother half he laid at Maj. Champion's\nfeet, delivering himself, of a speech in\nthe Ute language. The white man\nunderstood his meaning, but not a word\nof his address. The Indian and the\ndog had killed the deer together; and\nthe dog's owner was entitled to half\nthe game. The major was equal to\nthe emergency. He rose and delivered\nin full the classical declamation: \"My\nname is Norval,\" with appropriate gestures, just as lie had many times given\nit at school. Nothing could have been\nbetter. The Indian and the white man\nshook hands with effusion, and each\nwith hie share of the venison rode\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdway.\nWalter Jones & Co.\n+\nWellington, B C\n8-11-om\nTBE CITY TEA COMPANY'S STORE\nVICTORIA CRE3BNT\nImporters and Dealera in the\nCITY AUCTI\n\ufffd\ufffdiy -\nCHOICE BUTTER A SPECIALTY.\nMoADIE   BLOCK.\nEUREKABOTTLING WORKS\niiusrAOTutsK or\nSODA WATER,\nLemonade, Ginger Ale, Sarsa-\nparilla,   Champagne and\nOrange Cider, Iron\nPhosphates,\n&c, &c.\nBottler of different brands oi Lager Beer,\nSteam Beer and Porter.\nWALLACE STREET, NANAIMO, B.C.\nP.O.

Taking hia\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdeat on the bench promptly at 2 p.m., the\nfirst case called was John Ferguson remanded from Saturday last on the grave charge\nof assaulting Sheriff McMillan of Victoria\nin the execution of his duty when making a\nseizure of the Barque Dominion lying at\nthe Fast Wellington wharf on a libel obtained by Messrs Belyeu and Gregory on\nbehalf of the Turpel Ship Yard, viotoria.\nAfter receiving very wholesome advice si to\nhis duty under the circumstances the prieou-\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdr was fined $1 and 3 daya imprisonment to\ncount from Saturday last. The fine was\npaid and as the imprisonment had already\nbeen satisfied the prisoner waa discharged.\nOne citizen charged another with common\nassault. Before proceeding into the merits\nof tho case by taking evidence the magistrate advised both parties in the most kindly manner to endeavor to arrive at some\nsettlement out of court and with that objeot\nin view suggested an adjournment to another\nday and in the meantime during the interval\nof the remand they would be able to arrive\nat some satisfactory settlement. Mr. Young\nwho appeared for the defendant said that\nfor his client he might Bay that he was perfectly willing to do what was right and alter\nsome remarks from the plaintiff the case was\nremanded.\nH. Hilton, charged with doing a few dollars\nworth of damage to the windows of Mr.\nExleys house was after hearing Mr. Exley's\nevidence adjourned to another day to allow\nof his mental condition being enquired into\nby two physicaus according to the ao:..\nJohn Robinson charged with stealing one\ndozen coats and one dosen overshoes from\nN.

The evidence\nwas first taken down by Mr. Kenny J. P. at\nHazelton and the prisoner committed for\ntrial but on the priaonera arrival in Victoria\nsome informality was discussed and the\nprisoner was again brought up before\nPolios Magistrate McCrae, who, after\ntaking the evidenoe, remanded the prisoner\nto Nanaimo for examination before Mr.\nPlanta, S.M., who had jurisdiction in the\nCassiar district. Consequently Shuck's case\nwas taken up, and Mr. Planta read over\nthe evidence, which was to the effect that\nShuck took the pans at the sluice boxes\nwhere he was working in Cassiar, and deftly\npassed the washed contents, which was gold\ndust, into his right overalls pocket. He\nwas closely watched by George Ksnuy, J.P.,\nalthough unknown to the Chinaman, and at\nsix o'clook taken down to a cabin and\nsearched, when the $150 in dust was found\nnpon his person. He was promptly arrested and i he proceedings followed as narrated above. Mr. Planta committed the\nprisoner for r^'al.\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd        \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\t\nTha Coal Market.\nJ. W.

E. Watson, 2,510 tons;\nDamson Hill, 3,633 tons; Metropolis\n2,647 tons; Inverlyon, 2,300 tons; Eulo-\nmene, 3,948 tons; Celtic Monarch, 3,286\ntons; total, 25,847 tons. There have been\nliberal arrivals aince last mail, still the\nmarkets have not been affected as the quantity here in yard since ths Mariposa left is\nlimited. The possible arrivals from Newcastle\nin the next sixty daya will not exceed 16,000\ntona, which ia just about 50 per oent. ot the\namount usually disposed of at this season of\nthe year\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdof that character of coal. Buyers\nare timid and purchase very sparingly,\nparticularly on account of the reduction\nat Newcastle after January 1st and partially on account or the the possible chancs\nof tariff on coal. Coal freights are firmly\nsustained, hence asking prices for future\ndelivery of Colonial coals show no dsuline,\nstill the competition from Cardiff and\nSwansea shipments for si earn uses will not\npermit much advance and Japaneae coal for\ngas production will check any improvement\nfor that purpose.

Thought the American Preacher Carried a Gun.\n\"I had an adventure in London last\nspring* of a very unpleasant nature,\"\nsaid a Memphis minister, the other day.\n\"I was wandering about the city sightseeing one day and finally found myself\nnear the notorious Whitechapel district.\nI was approached by a beggar who appeared to be a complete physical wreck.\nI questioued him, and his story was so\npitiful that I concluded to investigate\nit. He said that he lodged in the next\nblock and thither we went, lie led me\ninto a gloomy old building and up three\npairs of rickety stairs to a little stuffy\nroom lighted only by a dirty skylight.\nOnce in there he locked the door, laid\naside his crutches, pulled off his gray\nwig, and stood up, a powerful six-footer\nin the prime of life. 'Well,' said I, 'I\nsee you are a fraud; what do you want\nwith me?' He replied that he wanted\nmy purse, watch and chain, and to enforce his claim produced an ugly looking knife. 'It will do no good to cry\nout,' he said, *for you cannot be heard\nin the street, and no one in this building will come to your aid.'\n\"I had sized him up pretty close and\nconcluded that he was bluffing, that he\nwould not dare kill me in the very\nheart of London, so 1 assumed a careless air and told him that if he robbed\nme he would have to kill me first, and\nthat he might just as well get at it.\n'Oh, I know that you have got a\npistol, but I'm not afraid of it,' he said.\n'Most Americans carry pistols for just\nsuch cattle as you,* 1 replied with all the\ncoolness I could assume. 'Now, if you\nare not afraid of it why don't you get\nto work?' I saw that he was cowed,\nand throwing my hand to my hip\npocket, 1 stepped forward and said firmly: 'Give me that knife.' 'He handed\nit to me without a word, unlocked the\ndoor and held it open for me to pass\nout. No, I had no pistol\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdnever carry\none; but I made no more visits to the\ndens of London beggars without a\nburly officer at my elbow.\"\nIlls;   Vessels    Sometime,!    Foundered   by\nGales In Which .Small Iionts Live.\nMany of you have stood on the beach\nat the seaside and watched the seas\nrolling in heavy breakers after a storm,\ncurling and crushing into volumes of\nfoam and broken water with such\nforce as to send them sweeping up almost to your feet. It is through such\nwaves that men who follow the sea\nmust at times pass in reaching the\nshore, but not.through one or two on\na smooth, quick-shelving beach, but\nthrough thirty or forty, perhaps, covering a mile of treacherous shoals, and at\npjaees surging between jagged reefs\nand huge bowlders. With intense interest we read of the dreadful shipwrecks almost every week. The survivors tell how the big ship labored\nand struggled through monster billows\nand shrieking wind, under black ilying\nclouds and amid jagged streaks of\nlightning until, mastless and helpless,\nshe lay exhausted in the trough of the\nsea and passively received the crashing\ndeluge of merciless waves until she\nsank. They tell how they, poor, puny\nhuman beings, clung to helm and\npumps till the great ship's struggles\nwere over and it became evident that\nshe could carry them no longer; then\nhow they hastily threw a cask of water\nand a few provisions into some remaining boat and at a favorable moment\nlaunched upon the angry waters in a\ncraft so frail that it seemed as if all on\nboard were doomed to instant destruction.\nHere comes what St. Nicholas calls\nthe strangest part of their narrative.\nRead all such accounts carefully and\nyou will find that in nearly every case\nwhere such a little boat is safely\nlaunched from an abandoned ship it\nfloats and drifts for days and even\nweeks upon the open ocean, living\nthrough the dreadful tempest which\nwrecked the big ship, sailing buoyantly through calmer seas and finally\nbringing the survivors within sight of\nother ships or lands.\ntvt.iKirniiH Mechanism*\nAt a late fair in Brittany. France, a\nmonk from the Kriestine monastery exhibited a plain-looking table with an inlaid chess board on its surface. The inventor, or anyone so disposed, sets the\npieces for a game and then sits along at\none side ol the table. However cautiously he plays he is frequently check*\nmated by the pieces from the opposite\nside, which move automatically across\nthe board. No matter how scientifically the player plays the ghost-moved\npieces frequently come out ahead. No\nmechanism is apparent; to all intent\nthe table is a solid board.\nBounds at Night.\nDuring a thunderstorm the air is of\nsuch varying density that thunder\npeals are never heard at a distance corresponding to their violence. For the\nsame reason the roar of cannon on a\nfield of battle is not noticeable, and the\nday has often been lost within a short\ndistance of the reserves of the defeated\narmy, which were waiting for the sound\nof artillery to call them to the scene of\naction. The air at night is more homogeneous, and hence sounds are heard\nmore clearly and farther than in the\ndaytime. In foggy weather sounds\nsuffer innumerable deflections from the\nmiBt and are soon destroyed.\nAn Untaught Heathen's Views.\nThe untaught heathen is sometimes\nwiser than we give him credit for being.\nSo is tllC mother of his children.

But\nhere are the words of the heathen\nwoman: \"You can read and write, but\nwhat is the use of that? You will have\nto stand before God and give an account\nof your conduct. He created you to get\nmarried, and he will punish you. You\nshould repent and get married at once.\nThen, . perhaps, you will be forgiven,\nand you may come and teach us to read\nand write*\" '\nSM^LL\nPROFITS\n-AND-\nLARGER\nBALES\nIn order to sustain the reputation\nof the\nAS BEING THE\nCheapest  House in the\nTrade\nWe are offering Special\nLow Prices\n15 yds Canton Flannel for $1\nWorth 10 cents a yard\n6 yds of the Best Grey Flannel in B.

Looks and What II a Weais\nand How He Plays the Guide\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe I>-'t-\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdline Costumes of the Women.\nThe gypsies are the most mysteri >us race\non this car;li. No one knows exactly whera\ntbey came from and no one knows what is\nto become of them. It is ubsoiuiely impossible to tell whether they are dying out or increasing iu numbers. Some persons learned\non the subject, nay that there are uo organized bands of gypsies iu the United States;\nand others, equally leanie I, say that tiie disappearance ot great numbers of them from\nthe United Kingdom can only bo accounted\nfor by their emigration to this country.\nThey appeared in France for too first time\nin the yeur HiT. They told the Parisians an\nartless story to the effect that they caine\nfrom Bohemia, where they hod bo-n cruelly\ntreated, aud that they expected to find\nPrance a very superior pine'. They soon\nshowed themselves to be experts in the arts\noftueiving, fortune telling and swopping\nhorses. From this time on bunds of them\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdprang up in tho various countries of Europe, coming no on* knew whence.\nThey were decidedly undesirable citizens,\nroving, nnd consequently untaxable, aud\nstealing the goods of those who could lie taxed. Moreovor, they had Princes of their own,\nand only recogniz ed the sovereignty of other\nPrinces ns far us they were obliged. Some\ngovernments tried a policy of repression and\napparently succeeded in reducing the uuiu-\nbers of the gypsies. A few tried kindness,\nand still fewer the scheme of colonizing thinly populated districts with them.\nThere is at least one place where they have\nsettled down permanently, aud that is under\nthe shadow of the Albambra, at Granada, in\nSpain. But their settling down in this country was not the result of any scheme of Government, nor were they required to give up\nthe ways of life and the exercise of the arts\nand professions, which alone made life worth\nliving to them. Iu fact, they settled down\nwithout being asked to, aud upon no conditions. There are in Spaiu about 40,000 gypsies\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdmore, probably, than in any other\nEuropean country. Many of them keep\nposadas or wine  shops,   and many carry on\n&i~P I\nthe horse dealing business, observing to some\nextent the methods of Christians.\nHigh above all gypsies in tho colony at\nGranada, in years, renown and everything\nelse, stauds Mariano Fernandez, the last\nPrince of the Gypsies. He is known to all\ntourists British aud American. An American traveller has denned him as prince, interpreter, guide aud bunco steerer. He\nstauds about in stained-glass attitudes most of\nbis time; which is princely, but he also picks\npockets, which is not. For two pesetas (40\ncents) he sells a portrait of himself, bearing\nthe princely autograph: \"Mariano Fernandez, principe de los gitanos y model del im-\nmortel Fortung.\" Fortung was a famous\nSpanish painter. If any other proof of\nMariano's sovereguty were needed, it is furnished by the acquiescence of his subjects\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\nthey can hardly be said to render much obedience.\nHe is a man of uncertain age, of very dark\ncomploxiou, with white side whiskers aud a\nlarge sensual mouth. He wears a green velvet\njacket with circular brass buttons down the\nfront, wiiich is part of tho aucient costume of\nAudaluda. This is very short, reaching a little\nway below the shoulder blades. Under this\nhe woars a figured yellow vest, aud under\nthat a white shirt. Round bis waist is a red\nsilk scarf, eighteen inches wide and over that\na. narrow belt of leather filled with cartridges.\nWe ipous of different kinds are attached to\nvarious parts of bis dress. His trousers are\nof a slate blue color, with buttons up the\nsides, aud the buttons are hidden by figured\nleggings, also with buttons. His hat, which\nis the most impressive feature of his personal\nadornment, is of the bolero pattern. It has\na s did circular rim, a high conical orown\nand two balls in front. A silk haudkerchief\ncovers the back of his head. He carries a huge\nAndalusian mule-driving whip, which he\nrests ou the ground in a carefully studied\nposition, while leaning his shoulder against\na Moorish portico with every regard to effect.\nMariano takes possession of tbe tourist as\nsoon as he comes within the confines of the\npalace, and points out to him the different\nobjects of interest, reeling off a quantity of\nfamilar facts aud lies with great oiliuess ot\nexpression.   The American editor who oou-\nTHE RECENTLY DECEASED HAWAIIAN\nKINGAJEKYI l.-HYDE.\n(used the ancient palace of the Moors ac Granada with an institution of the same name in\nLondon should know Mariano He remembers well, he says, when the Moors occupied\nthe palace of the Albambra, although they\nwero driven out some time in the fourteenth\ncentury. He can give no details on this sub\nject, probably because he was so young at the\ntime. When questioned as to the time tbey\nleft, he usually calls attention to the beautiful\ngoldfish swimming in the green water of the\nfountain.\nAfter he has ahown the Alhambra to tht\ntourist he invites him to bis house, or, strictly\nspeaking, to bis palace, under the Albambra,\nou tho same hill. He and his people live in\ntt- houses, whioh they have out in the side\nof the lull.\nStrange Story About Kalakaua\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdOutwardly Polished Seeretly He Yearned\nfor Savage Orgies and Sacrifices\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdTha\nMystic Order of Xllo Kilo.\nKalakaua. King of Hawaii, whose funeral\nprocession formed such a splendid pageant\nat San Francisco on January S3, was a very\nnotable man. A great deal has been written\nand published about him since and before hi:,\ndeath, but little has been said of the mainspring of his ambition and hope, although\nwhole Volumes might be filled ou the subject.\nTie purpi iso of this article, however, is not\nto present a critical analysis of his character, but simply ts depict a few incident,-,\nin his career which may possibly furnish a\nkey lo it. For David Kalakaua led a dual\nlife, and the reality in his case is far\nmore fascinating thau the improbable and\nrevolting creation of Stevenson's brain, which\nh'is taken such a hold upon readers of sen\nnational literature.\nHE WAS A HIGH CHIEF.\nDaviil Kalakaua was an alii or high chief\nof the Hawaiian Islands. His ancestors,\nonce powerful in their own districts, had\nbeen completely overshadowed by Kaine-\nhameha and his followers, and he inherited\nlittle beyond the pride of birth and a capacity for animal enjoyment for which his\nfamily has been noted for ages, according\nto Hawaiian tradition. It never once entered into his head that oue day he should be\ncalled upon to rule the kingdom created by\nthe genius of Kamehanieha and consolidated\nby the patriotism aud talents of his descendants. If such a dream had ever beeu presented to Kalakaua's brain it might have\nmodified his character and awakened his ambition at an earlier period. But as it was he\nsimply lived to enjoy life\nIN AN UNDIGNIFIED WAY\nuntil his own and his wife's patrimony had\nbeen dissipated. Even when the lightning\nof a purchased legislature struck him and he\nbegan to rule the kingdom \" by the grace of\nGod,\" his credit did not rapidly improve, and\nhe was driven to a great many ingenious\nshifts to gratify his appetite and keep up\nappearances.\nTo the day of his death, during every\nvicissitude of chance and fortune, David\nKalakaua was a Hawaiian chief, living\npreferably as close to the old life of his people as was possible under the fierce puri-\ntanism of nussionary fathers and their descendants. After ascending the throne he\ntook special pains to appear as a refined\nand patriotic ruler, His foreign travel,\nwhich gave him a fair shine of outside polish,\nwas undertaken iu a measure to this end, and\nto inform himself of the methods of foreign\nrulers, that he might conform generally to\nthe surface requirements of his exalted sta-\ntion.while secretly indulging iu his tastes according to the usages of his fathers.\nTHE ANCIENT HAWAIIAN CHIEFS\nwere priests as well as kings. Their will\nwas absolute in all things. They had the\npower of divination, could read omens and\nforecast the future far more accurately than\nwas common among professional soothsayers\nand prophets, for the reason that they\nhad the power of life aud death, of war and\npeace, of misery or prosperity in their own\nbands. When a prophet is able to\nverify his prediction he has an immense advantage over one who has to take\nchances on its f ulflhnent. Hence it happened\nthat the allies of the olden time, when they\nsacrificed and read the omens, seldom received a lying message from the gods.\nDavid Kalakaua secretly surrounded himself with kahunas, or prophets, who taught\nhim the tradition of olden times and established what might be styled a school for prophets. He entered into this study with great\nearnestness, and soon became one of the most\npotent and proficient among them. He was\nSpecially absorbed by the idea that he was\ndestined to restore the aucient ways, and\nyet, while\nSECKETLY  PRACTISINO   HEATHEN RITES\nand encouraging debasing superstition, he\nwas posing in the eyes of the world as a civilized ruler and a shining example of the\nelevating influence of Christianity. From\nthe Christian sacrament at the altar in the\nepiscopal cathedral to the heathen ceremonial in tho privacy of the palace was said uot\nto be an unusual change of scene in the dual\nlife of this remarkable man.\nThe Kilo-Kilo was organized aud incorporated as a benevolent society. Officers\nwero appointed and members enrolled, and\nfor several weeks the palace was tbe scene\nof nightly orgies, while the flag or symbol\nof tho order was flying from the tower.\nKalakaua had prepared a treatise showing\nits antiquity as practised by Hawaiian\nchiefs about 07,000 years before tho Christian\nera. These proceedings were soon known\nthroughout the islands. An uneasy feeliug\ndisturbed the foreigners, while a spirit of\nunrest aud expectations of some great\ncbauge took possession of the natives. The\nhula was revived. Feasting and dissipation,\nmusic and dancing went on without ceasing\nwithin the palace, the gn+es of which wero\nclosed to foreigners, 1' oph lied and fortified\naul\nGUARDED BY SOLDIERS.\nThe death of the king's sister, Princess\nLikelike, about this time, added to the feel-\nlug of exasperation with which the foreigners\niu Honolulu viewed these proceedings, because it was notorious that she indignantly\nrefused to join or countenance the Kilo-Kilo,\naud expressed her preference for her foreign\nfriends aud entire sympathy with christian\nteaching aud doctrine. Her death was attributed to the kahunas, who intimated that\none of the royal family must die to propitiate Fele and stop the lava flow from Muunu\nLoa. She died, rumour hail it, as the sacrifice to Pele and the lava flow stopped. Certain it is that her death was at ouce a shock\nand surprise, and had its influence upon the\nrevolutionary movement, which shortly after\nabolished the Board of Genealogy, trampled\nupon the Kilo-Kilo, whipped Kalakaua into\nconstitutional traces, aud destroyed forever\nhis ambition to restore the ancient faith,\ncustoms and traditions of the Hawaiian rare.\nThat auch an idea should have been seriously\nentertained by any man iu Hawaii at the\npresent day would have been remarkable\nenough, but that a man of Kalakaua's education, intelligence aud experience should\nhave acted upon it in the later yeara of his\nlife, and at the very pinnacle of success, is\none of those anomalies which caunot be explained or understood.\nA Curious Trunk,\nThe following puzzle is said to have been\ncomposed by the bishop of Oxford:\nI have a trunk with two lids, two caps,\ntwo musical instruments, two established\nmeasures, and u great number of articles\n' \" A Progressive Yontl^\nThe father\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdWell, young man, it seems I*\nBe you are getting al nig very fast!\nThe Young Man\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdI am only holding aj>\niwn, sir.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdLife.\nTrouble lii the McSwat Family.\nThe misguided robin chirped cheerfully\nBniong the frost-bitten blossoms in tho\ncherry tree, the early bee banged up against\nthe window pane and buzzed profanely, the\nneighbors' chickens scratched and cackled\nwith demoniac glee in Mra McSwat's prema\nturely aged lettuce bed, and the f raudful old\nsun shone as innocently and smilingly on\ntbo McSwat dwelling as if he didn't know\nperfectly well that within two o:* three hours\nthere would be a deluge of rain, a hailstorm,\nand a cold wave.\n\" Billiger,'' said Mr. McSwat's young wife,\nwith a shade of anxiety 1*1 \"* voice, and\nmanner, \"you seem out of ;piri this morn-\ning.

It is a well known fact\nthat scarcely any one of the streets in this\ncity outside of the main ones are subjected\nto such hard wear and tear. Heavy teaming cuts the road into ruts and the soft\ncharacter of the road bed iB only productive\not mud and mud holes.\nA very enthusiastic meeting of the Nanaimo Poultry Club was held at the Hotel\nWilson lust evening, Dr. Praeger in the\nchair.
