A TATTOOED PRINCE.

The San Francisco Chronicle thus de-
scribes M. Mamea, Secretary of State of
Samoa, who has reached that city in
company with J. G. Colmesnil, Vice
Consul of Apia, en- route to Washington
as an American ambassador from the
Samoan Islands to the United States !:
Mr.. Mamea is fine specimen of
physical manhood, straight as an arrow,
and about six feet six inches in height.
A massive head surrounded by a shock
of woolly hair, sits gracefully on a pair
of broad shoulders. He has a pleasant
smiling face, beaming with intelligence,
and adorned with a small coarse mus
tache of the darkest hue. He converses
Huently in English, and has thorough
knowledge Of the events of the day. On
the Isabel, up to the time of his landing
on our shores, he clung to the native
and primitive garb of his island home
A colorless shirt descending to the waist
with a primitive cloth attachment, were
the only articles of dress, save an extra
breastpin or two, with which he clothed
his colossal form while journeyins
across the ocean. This garb, however
has been discarded for broadcloth suit
that sets off his stalwart frame, and is il
fine contrast with his bronze counte
nance. His body, from the waist to tn
knees, is gem of tattooing art. 1t i
completely covered with the distinctly
signs and figures common to the chief
and members of the royal family in tn
Navigator Islands. He is a devou
Christian, being a convert, and a Bibl
is his constant companion. He will re
main here until next week, when he wi
leave for Washington, where he hope
to effect some good, and bring tn
islands under the protection of tn
United States. 1t is, he says, th
unanimous wish of the natives that tn
country shall guarantee some protectio
to them, SO that the increasing an
profitable trade between Samoa an
Europe may be turned this way.

THE Turks burned and evacuated Elena
on Friday, and the Russians reoccupy it.
In the battle at Metchka the Turks lost
about one thousand men, and were driven
across the River Lom.
THERE was disturbance and fighting on
the 9th between the Servian and Mussulman
inhabitants of Sienica.
THE portion of the Servian troops con-
centrated near the frontier have been with
drawn, and the other portion dismissed to
their homes.
IT is officially announced that the Russian
loss between November 10 and II, was 3,153.
Total loss since the commencement of the

Assassination.

John Goodrich, living in small hamlet
called Francisville, in Boone County, Ken
lucky, was horribly assassinated while
sitting by his tireside. The Cincinnati
Enquirer report says that Goodrich had
only just entered his home. He had been
hard at work all day with team, and was
exceptionally tired. Without removing
either hat or overcoat he had flung himself
in chair to the left of large open fire.
place, in which was blazing a couple ef
logs, His step-daughter sat directly in
front of the fire, conversing with her
mother, sitting Immediately on her right.
The room was light, and the curtains were
up. Goodrich sat with his chin buried in
his hand, his elbow resting on his knee. He
sat as silent as sphinx, and was probably
absorbed in thought. Suddenly, with no
word of warning, and while all without was
as still as tomb, a crash as heavy as thun-
der broke in upon them. The window
glass seemed to fill the air, smoke was dense
| to suffocation, and before the report had
died away John Goodrich, without uttering
! groan, fell headlong from his chair a
corpse, and his brains oozed out on the
| floor Two shots had been fired so near
| together that they sounded as one. Both
| loads barely grazed Miss Riley. One charge
! had taken effect in q door between which
and the assassin Goodrich sat. The other
| charge all entered the victim. One shot OIL
bullet went clear through the victims neck
and handful plowed hole into his skull
| big enough to almost insert the fist.

A BITTER war, in which the popular
mind on the Pacific coast takes the
deepest interest, is being waged between
the wholesale sugar dealers of that sec
ton and Claus Spreckels, who is the
only manufacturer and reiner Of sugar
west of the Rocky Mountains, and is
there known as the "Sugar Ring"
Spreckels became angry because some of
the dealers bought in the Eastern States
part of the sugar they used, and re-
fused to sell them what part they re-
quired from him at the same prices and
on the same terms as he did to Others.
The dealers thereupon formed a combi-
nation with the Central Pacific Railroad
Company, and determined to get all
their sugar from Eastern refners and to
run in competition with the "Sugar
Ring" to the top of their ability. They
can never get sugar into the California
market at as low figure as Spreckels
can, because the raw material is i'm
ported free of duty from the Sandwich
Islands, and no freight across the conti-
nent need to be paid on it. 1t is said,
however, that the sugar made here,
if it does cost little more, is SO much
better as to be worth the difference. By
many Californians the opposition to
Spreckels is denounced, because it is a
threat to the budding sugar industries of
thatState, of which Spreckels's refneries
are the only representatives, and these
will refuse to buy Eastern sugar on that
| orouud

MRS. GENERAL SHERMAN has written
another letter against dancing. She
says that she has noted " the wall of the
wounded and the guilty" dancers since
her first denunciation of the amusement.
." 1t is not to be expected" she contin-
ues, that young girls, who are uncon-
scious of evil in the beginning, should
reflect long enough to summon the moral
courage to resist the allurements of the
dance, unless with encouragement and
support of their parents. To the honor
of pure maidenhood be it said, however
that there are young girls who decline
from instructive delicacy, even when
their parents would have them join the
throng who dance down the broad roat
of worldly pleasure"

The most colossal inheritance sued for
in the courts is that of the Metzger
family, in Holland. Lieutenant-G General
Metzger de Weibaum died at the Hague
in 1901, leaving a fortune $2s, ,OOO, 900.
The Holland Government took the estate
to itself on the alleged ground of want
OF heirs. General Metzger was of
Alsace. Some of his distant relatives
there laid claim to the property. The
suit lasted one hundred and fifty wears,
until 1894, when William III of Orange
declared it outlawed by time, and con-
iirmed the original seizure by the State
New proof having recently been dis
covered, the Metzger heirs have ne
titioned the French, Swiss, and Ameri.
can Governments to assist them in secur.
ing the rights of branches of the same
family living under their protection
With simple and compound interest, il
is estimated that the estate in question
equals in value the whole amount O
coined gold in the world.

ANOTHER of those terrible and mex
cusably blundering executions that have
become the rule in Ohio, took place at
Mt. Vernon, recently, in the hanging
of William J. Bergin. After the trap
was sprung, the knot became united, and
the victim of the claws delay" stag
gered against post, shocked, but not
unconscious. He was lifted to the scaf-
fold, and the moose readjusted with bet
ter success-but not much. The knot
slipped under his chin, and the fall not
breaking his neck, he was actually stran-
gled to death. This was indeed, as the
victim himself said on returning to the
scaiIold for additional torture, ga bad
murder" Hundreds looked on at this
authorized crime, palsied with horror
unable to suggest relief or remedy. Ex
ecutions must be conducted on bette,
principles, or the public voice will de
mand abolition of the punishment.

IT is probably intended that the
Duke of Connaught, the Queens third
son, shall be in time to come very closely
identified with Ireland. From the first
he was marked out for it, being chris
tened, Patrick" and when title was
conferred on him it was that of an Irish
province. He has now been for many
months residing in Ireland, where his
regiment is quartered, but he does not
merely follow the.hounds and stay about
in great country houses, but pays great
attention to the institutions and condi-
tion Of the country, and mingles among
all sorts and conditions of men. One
evening last month he dined with the
Mayor of Cork, and was warmly well
coined, and about the same date made a
visit to the Roman Catholic schools at
Fermoy. AS he is a quiet, sensible young
man, of excellent manners, and with the
reputation of a thorough gentleman, he
may do good service to Ireland.

VOLUME V.

The Hindoos, tired of their passive
position in the matter of conversion,
have determined to organize mission
for the propagation of Brahminism
among the benighted English Christians
of Australia. Suradschi, the new apos-
tie, is an eminent Brahmin of Benares,
who, while recently visiting the Austria
lian colonies, was struck by the fearful
prevalence of drunkenness among the
inhabitants Returning to his native
country, he called together meeting of
Brahmins at Benares, the holy city of
the Hindoos, and laid before them de-
tails of the miserable and degraded con-
dition of their fellow subjects in Austria
liza. 1t was unanimously agreed that
the only lasting remedy would be the
con version of the Australian Christians
to better and purer faith. A large sum
of money has been subscribed, and sew
eral Brahmins have placed themselves at
the disposal of Suradschi, who is busily
engaged in translating portions of the
Vedas into the English tongue, for the
use of missionaries.

THE Wurtemberg Governmenterecte
n few years ago, number of dwellings
for the men employed in its iron works,
and lately has built quite little town
mt Stuttgart for the benefit of its en-
ployees in the Railroad and Postoffice
Departments. What led to their erection
was the very rapid increase in the
rentals and cost of living Zone of the
many blessings of united Germany.
The Government rents these buildings,
which are admirably designed for COM
fort and economy, to its employees, who
pay a moderate rent. The course was
probably found to be much more eco
nomical than raising their salaries. In
connection with the dwellings are pub
lie kitchens, and large baths and wash
houses. What renders the boon especially
valuable is the fact that the site is de-
lightful and most salubrious, and that
every possible sanitary precaution has
been taken. Those who benefit formerly
had to huddle in narrow quarters among
ill-drained streets.

A NORTH CAROLINA paper says there
is in Watauga County, in that State, a
Aourishing oak tree of vigorous growth,
the leaves of which, when they first
burst forth in the spring, are of bright,
golden color, and retain this color during
their whole growth and maturity. In
the autumn, when the coming frosts
dye the other forest leaves in the wavy,
brilliant hues which give such wonderful
beauty to the mountain sides, the leaves
on this remarkable tree begin at length
to turn green, adopting as their own the
fresh tint that is just departing from
the nthers.
