LIE EDITOR OF the Gazette, while landing the
Hawaiian Consul at San Francisco for " the sue
cess attending the arrangements for the reception
and ENTERTAINMENT of the King Wherein he
makes his hero to quite Overshadow the Mayor Of
the city-goes out Of his way to hint that if any
one took ofFense at the Consul's conduct it must
have been because they were 'stoo familiar, -
lacked &" proper respect" or had " a mistaken idea
Of their own Importance" Il is sufficient only
to say that the editor Of the Gazeue was not in
San Francisco at the time, to render this bypoth-
esis highly improbable. But it is nevertheless
true that several citizens expressed themselves
warmly at the i~ncivility experienced at the hands
Of the Consul, and that one prominent gentle
man promptly and Indignantly resented the insult
in the public hall of the Grand Hotel. The
Kings native Hawaiian subjects were either
ignored by the Consul, when they called to see
His Majesty, or refused admittance to him-a fact
which came to the knowledge of members of his
suite. When the proper time comes we shall re-
fer to this matter more fully.

Rev. Robert Collyer, of Chicago, who has been
called to the Church of the Messiah in New York
city, at a salary of $4,000, says that if he finds it
to be his duty to accept the call he will not accept so
large a salary. for the reason that the church cannot
afford to pay it. If Mr.. COllyer sticks to that it will
be a good illustration of Sc Clear Grit upon which
subject he has frequently lectured.

old lady who had never travelled a great
deal. She wasn't used to the ways OF
the book agents, the peanut boys, and
the prize package nuisances who pass
through the train every few minutes:
When the peanut boy came along and
dropped q big African peanut into her
lap she shucked it, opened her mouth
and dropped the kernel down instead of
regarding it with silent contempt or
pitching it out of the window. The
book agent came along and dropped a
book in her lap. She said she was
much obleeged," and she carefully
locked it up in her valise. The prize
package boy came along and dropped .

could afford to give away so much:

eye. 1t will be found to be very

nearly toward the zenith. A telescope
