THE AsLATIc HoRDEs.-In the Berlin congress
Count SchouvaloA predicted the invasion Of
Europe by Asiatic hordes, if modern arms were
secured by them. He proposed to unite Europe
in a defensive league against the swarming
Asiatics to prevent an invasion which would
PROSTATE Europe. Beaconsfeld is said to have
treated the proposition. as though some one
should tell him that the city of London would
be toppled 10 destruction in a hundred thousand
years by the advancing ice from the north. But
the invasion from the east is nearer. Schouvaloff
Europe in fifty years, perhaps sooner. The Chi
nese are far advanced in the arts of civilization.
They only need to learn the art of modern
warfare to become the mightiest power on the
earth. What would England be compared with
China, if that power should learn to build ships
and make modern guns. Perhaps England
thought it was political wisdom to kill off the
Chinese with opium, which has been forced upon
China at the point of the bayonet. But such
avengers as Genghis Khan are still possible, and
Europe and America may well tremble. The
prescription OF the Chinese race will only hasten
the warllke development. All that is necessary
Is a genius. a leader, who shall organize the
chinese masses for conquest. Such a leader will
arise. Count Schouvalof is not the first to give
warning. But he is the first representative OF q
great power to recognize the danger. 1t is not
many years ago that the Turks Numbered at the
gates of Vienna and made Europe turn pale.
But the Turks could WELD but a mere fraction
of the numbers that China could muster. The
borders of China are but a little to the east of the
rowing ground of the Turcomans.-ROcAester IN.

SUPREME CouRT-IN EQUITY.
KUAMU (w.) AND PAAKAI a. HER HUSBAND vs..
KAELEU.
Before tie Chancellor.

KAELEU.
Before the Chancellor.
The plaintiff, in this case, claims a piece of
land in Manao Valley by reason of being first
cousin and only heir to a person who has been
known nearly his whole life as Kikipine, and the
defendant claims the same land by virtue of a
deed from Kikipine which the plaintiff AYERS to
be a fraud and probably a forgery.
The plaintiff proves, or attempts to prove, her
relationship by means of a large number of high
ly respected witnesses who have known the de-
ceased since his boyhood. These witnesses say
that the mans real name was Naihe, and that he
came from Hawaii; that the name kikipine was
a nickname given to him by foreigners because
he was employed in a bowling alley; and that
it was a corruption of 60 six pins" This seems
to have been the relationship acknowledged by all
persons during Kikipine's lifetime. But at the
trial, counsel for the defendant announced that
they had just heard that Kikipine had a brother
still living, and, after having had time allowed,
introduced a man who called his name Kahula
and ~testiies that he is the brother of Kikipine:
that the real name of Kikipine was Naihe; and
that he was called kikipine because he used to
set pins in the bowling alley; that his father was
kukae and his mother name was Pun; and that
they were born at Waimanalo, on this Island:
and that he claims this property as his OVID,
though he has not pursued it hitherto. This
testimony is supported by a witness by the name
of Lula (k) and Keoni Kapu. The popularity
of it is that, though so wide and differen. ac-
counts are given of the birth and the place of
birth of the deceased man, both parties give the
same name and the same nickname, and the same
reason for the nickname, and both speakwith the
same positiYeness as to the place of birth-tbe
witness kalua even stating that be knows that
kikipine was born at the same place that he was,
viz: Waimea, Hawaii, and that he lived there
together with him until they were both grown
up; that he knew the father and mother of
Kikiplne, whose names were kumoa (k.) the
father and LOnohiwa wv the mother.
1t would appear to make a little difference to
the defendant whether the plaintiff Kuamu or the
alleged brother Kahula were the real heirs of
Kikipine, but defendants counsel makes the
point because he thinks that if Kahula should be
shown to be the heir. Kuamu would have no
standing in Court, and therefore the bill must be
dismissed because Kahula has not made himself
a party TO it.
or course one story or the other must be I'M
true. If Kikipine was born at Waimanalo from
Kukae (k.) and Pun (w.), he was not born at
Waimea of Kumoa (k.) and Lonohiwa (w.)
But insomuch as the evidence is very strong that
he recognized the plaintiff Kuamu as his relation
during his lifetime, and there is no evidence that
he had any fraternal intercourse with Kahula.

CURIOUS LAW QUEsTIoNS.-Mr. A, a gentleman
residing at Los Angeles, had a valuable horse to
which he was much attached. The horse sickened,
and he sent him out to die. Thinking his re.
covery impossible, be drew his pistol to kill him;
his heart failed him, and he gave five dollars Ia
B to do the act of killing. B went to the field
for the purpose and in turn his heart failed him,
and he gave five dollars to C.. c examined the
horse, and in turn moved by the reproachful ewes
OF the Sick animal, endeavored to cure him. The
experiment succeeded, and after DAYS of careful
nursing, the horse recovered. One day when c
was driving the horse through the streets of Los
Angeles Mr.. 4 saw him, recognized his horse
which he thought dead, and brought repleyin be-
fore Judge Sepulyeda to recover his property. c
resisted, pleading that the animal had been aban-
doned by his former master and was his by virtue
of restoring him to health. This case is now
upon appeal to the Supreme Court. Query

POmponious, a celebrated law teacher of Rome
in the sixth century, entered into a contract with
a Roman citizen to instruct his son in the law.
This was the law: So many coins if the pupil
became learned in the law, the test to be that he
should win bis first case before the tribunal.
POmpOnious turned over his pupil as perfected in
his studies. The father brought suit against the
master to set aside the contract, and retained his
son to plead this his first case. "If my son
gains his case the contract is made void. If be
loses | am not bound" Pomponious answers:
- If | fail in my defense the son wins his case,
aud l am entitled to my money. If l gain the
Court gives me the money by its decree" Which

SAND BATHING.-Sand bathing is popular at
the seaside. \ trench is dug in the damp sand
near the ocean, and the sun rays are allowed to
pour into 1T until the sand becomes very hot.
The bather then reclines in the trench and an
attendant covers him with sand until he looks
like q terrapin. The bathers say that these baths
are not only pleasant but beneficial, and that
three such baths will cure rheumatism.

Ridicule.

IF ridiculc is ever allowable Of
justiiiable, says an exchange, il
certainly is not so when directed
against physical or mental defects.
Some parents, feathers, and 9th,
er guardians of the young, thinl
it wise to use this weapon for the
purpose of stimulating the ambi-
tion, or of improving the manners
Of their children or their pupils.
1t may, perhaps, avail where there
is no sensitiveness in the individ-
ual, in which case other means will
answer quite as well and better.
Indeed, ridicule is n most cruel
and dangerous remedy for any
fault or failing, and is likely to be
productive of greater evils than
that upon which it bears, especial
ly as it is almost always aimed at
those things which the poor vic
tim is thoroughly conscious of but
is not able to help. Many child
rem suffer martyrdom during their
school days because of their red
hair, suffering tongues, big noses,
or other peculiarities and must
bear, in silence, the witticisms OF
their school fellows because the per-
secution increases at any exhibit
ton of feeling or show of resis-
tance. Sensitive children, If ex-
posed to such treatment at home,
grow reserved and dull, sometimes
becoming alienated from their
homes because they dare not ex-
press their sentiments, or bestow
their confidence for fear of being
laughed at. And there are wo-
men, and men as well, who would
walk up to the stake, if necessary,
without fiinching; would be brave
and courageous in time Of trial and
danger, but who could not endure
a sneer, and who would be utterly
overcome by sarcastic laugh at
their expense.
Really good people often indulge
in this sort of torture, either from
thoughtlessness or from the pleas
ure it gives themselves. They find
it vastly amusing to speak OF un-
pleasant facts, or to bring into
prominence the weak points, or the
failings of friend, acquaintance or
stranger, as the case may be, and
then to enjoy the discomfort and
embarrassment Of the poor victim.
