OUR HONOLULU RELATIONS.

The death ofthe King Of the Sandwich
Islands. and the future of that kingdom
In view of the fact that he left no hel. to
the throne, is the subject of consid erable
comment and speculation here, in official
and diplomatic circles. Governor McCook,
OF Colorado Territory, who was Minister
Resident at Honolulu prior to General
Grants Administration, is of the opinion
that II our Government wants to annex
the islands it can he done now withC at
much difficulty. If our present Minister
there shows any sort of management he
can have control of matters The English
and French Ministers are absent On leave,
and there are no foreign vessels Of war In
the Hawaiin waters except American and
n all departments of he Government of
the kingdom the Americans have the as,
cendsncy. The principal opponent to
the annexation oil the islands to the
United States was the dead King Kane
hameha. In his youth he had visited this
country, and, unfortunately the treatment
received was not of character to prepos
sess him in our favor. Being a cClored
man, and travelling incognito, he was in
many instances subjected to indignites
which he neve got. In conversation
with General u k, while he was Min
ister Resident, o the subject of annexa-
ton, Kamehameha stated that as King he
received salary much larger than that
of the President of the United States, some
S4O OOO per annum, not to speak of the
privileges of his position as soverei gn
With annexation, he said, as an accom-
phi he'd fact, he would become a very or.
binary citizen of the United States. He
preferred, Of course, to remain King. This
wa his position. The sentiments of his
subjects, or at leastIthe most influential
portion OF them, were most favorable 10

while kamehameha lived the question
was not agitated. Shortly before his

original order, and not as has been stated,
to protect the interests Of American clti-

BIELA'S COMET BROKEN TO
PIECES.

Prof: IT. Il. Newton, of Yale,
writes as follows to the New Haven
papers :
Sunday evening, between 1880
and 1890 o'clock, were counted
about ESQ shooting stars, of which
over three-fourths radiated from
Gamma Andromede. These meteor
ic bodies evidently from a part of
what was formerly called Biela's
comet, In 1846 that body was seen
to divide into two comets, which.
at their next return in 1852, were
]. 100000 miles apart. Since that
time neither portion of the comet has
been seen, though their third passage
OF the node should have taken place
about SIX weeks ago. Astronomers
nave oeen suspecting that it has
gon. entirely to pieces, and that it
would not again be seen. Sunday
eVehlng were seen, as above stated,
about 259 fragments of the comet.
A large number of observers would
probably have been able to count
100 or 500 in the time named.
he process of breaking up has evi
IDENTITY been going on long time.

Der 9th, quite number offragments,

they had any connection with this

MR. GREELEY'S ADVICE TO
A YOUNG JOURNALIST.

The following characteristic letter
from Mr.. Greeley appears in the
New York Eve'aing Telegram. It
was written, that paper says, to a
gentleman who has been for eight
years on the staff OF New York
daily, but who at that time asked
the great journalist for advice about
leaving country town for the city:
DEAR SIR-Yours of the goth ul-
timo only reached me at this place
yesterday. | am lecturing in the
West, and shall not return to New
York for several days yet.
Ny own course uniformly has
been to stick to anything l could
find to do, and never leave a place
so long as any work remained to be
done there. [ think you will find
that the wise course. 1t may seem
that larger wages may be earned
elsewhere but expenses are usually
proportionate to earnings, and re-
moval exposes one to the loss of all
the position or reputation he may
have gained. Character is the ba-
sis of business and prosperity, and
character is more easily established
or developed in the country than in
the city. Men seldom bound to
fortune or position; they must grow.
After a few years you will be want
ed to conduct journal in your own
region; look carefully into the in
ducements, and be not too hasty in
accepting, for your time will come.
Be careful of debts; he who owes
nothing and has a chance to earn
his daily bread is happier than he is
aware of. Make friends and gain
knowledge; few years will render
them useful to you. With hearty
good wishes, [ remain, yours.

ANECDOTE OF THE KING OF
PERSIA,

when Nadir Shah, king of Persia
conquered Mohammed Shah, the then
emperor of Delhi,he treated him with the
greatest respect. After entering the roy
oil city In great splendor, he allowed the
emperor to sit beside him on his throne
in the palace of Delhi There thew sat in
great pomp till the Lord Chamberlal n
came to offer coffee 10 their NECESSITIES
Simple as handling a cup of coffee NAV
appear to you, it was difficult operation
for the poor Lord Chamberlain to per-
form. The nobleman thought to himself,
What shall DOE If offer the coffee first
20 the king of Persia, then my own king
will be offended, and when Nadir Shah
has gone away, he will have my head cut
Off, or, if give it first to my own king,
then the other will not certainly kill me.
He thought all this as he was approach
lug the two kings. Then an idea occur
red to him which would help him out of
his difficulty. Bending forward, he pre-
sented the coffee first to the emperor of
Delhi, and, turning to Nadir Shah, he
said. with low bow, "Such conqueror
must be served only by the hands of o
klng!' Mohammed Shah immediately
took the hint, and handed the cup Of
coffee to the king of Persia, the Lord
Chamberlain instantly supplying him
with another. This anecdote is related
with great admiration by the natives, as
showing how cleverly he contrived to
please both kings, without in the least
failing In his respect to his own mon arch. y

COOPERATIVE FARMING.

The triumph of the idea which
found expression at Rochdale, Eng,
in 1914, when twenty-eight poor
weavers put their shillings together
and agreed to do without middle
men," has prompted an application Of
the principle, now after nearly thirty
years waiting to a solution of Great
Brltain's agrarian difficulties. At
Lady day of next year the expert
ment of cooperative farm will be
commenced at Leintwardine, in Here
fordshire, and anxiously watched by
all those who see how imperative for
the greatest good of the greatest num-
Der the present system of conducting
the agriculture of the realm is. An
estate of LA acres has been purchased
through the efforts OF Mr.. Morrison,
member of Parliament from Plym-
outh, and this is to be let to thirty
laborers at 800 a share, $50 to be
paid up. This will be only paid up
capital of 81, 800, but it is expected
to be supplemented by the extra mus
eular strength and toll expended by
the poor man when working for him
self. The Rochdale venture has now
among its artisans 800, 900 members;
is worth 100000, and trades annu-
ally to gthe extent of over $5,00O,-
600, their sale of butter each week
being $4,000. The baronet who
presided over the meeting which
organized this latter cooperative
scheme told mis- audience that it was
the beginning of a large movement
IN the country, and only in that way
could the present rents of farms be
at all maintained.

The Match Game At Brunsvvick.

We have already published report of the
base ball match at Brunswick, bat give place
to the following communication which gives
the account more in detail.
The most important and interesting base
ball match which has taken place this sum-
mer in the State came of in Brunswick last
Saturday, Oct. 25th, on the grounds Of the
Bowdoin College Club, the contestants being
the Kennebec Club of Hallowell and the Am
ateur Club of Augusta.
This match possessed more than ordinary
interest from the fact that the Amateur Club
had defeated the kennebecs the two preced-
ing games. but the Remedies were not salts.
fed with these results, and so this match was
played; and the result clearly proved the
glorious uncertainty of the National game, for
the Remedies defeated their over-confident
opponents by the decisive score of 80 to 49,.
The game was played for 800 and the
Championship of the Kennebec River, and as
the Amateur Club were the favorites in betting
circles, the consequence was that a great deal
of money changed hands.
The playing on both sides was very strong,
but it was evident after the first two innings
which way the game must go. but the pluck
of the Augusta boys was good and they played
a strong uphill game. On the. part of the
Amateur club the playing OF Scruton, Libby
and Lancaster was first class, while on the
part of the Remedies nearly all played per-
fectly. Messrs. Garvey on first base,
Mathews lightning pitches and Williams play
behind the bat, Niles fine stop throws and the
fine exhibition of batting and base running by
the entire nine, was such as is rarely seen
even in a professional match. The following
ia the score:
