Janauschek's kisses are but rare, aud
they are very matronly. They come with
words that are growled forth from a deeply
imbedded diaphragm and are mere touches
not like what soldenes used to be in
the days Of old, when she gave her lover
the full benefit Of the mammoth cave that
yawns scros. her face. There is more kiss
TO the square foot Of Soldene's mouth than
that Of any other woman on the stage.
Alice Oates did some pretty kissing, espe-
oially after her ninth marriage, when
varied experience had made her a mistress
Of styles. She could kiss high tragedy or
low comedy and between the two extremes
ring in every known variety, from Mod
jeska's stately iciness to Pauline Mark
hams smack. With her twelfth and present
husband, however, she has to go slow on
the kiss racket, for he won't stand IT, Not
long ago an actor, full Of inspiration or
beer, seized her on the stage, gave her hug
that must have made her ribs meet, and
bestowed a paroxysmal kiss upon her.
Next night Mr.. Alice Oates appeared in
the wings with big navy revolver, ready
to blow the top Of the actors head of

r. The Editorial article on Pool Selling in
last Wednesdays gazette contains some very
erroneous remarks. viz: That young men em-
ployed about town are the principal support In
betting in the Pool rooms. This is indeed an
utter falseeood, and no yonng clerk employed
about town visits these Pool rooms, much less
buys in them; as the only Pool buying ever done
is by parties who are their own masters, and
fully acquainted IN sporting circles. II, on the
occasion those employers who called on the
Gazefe scribe providing they did, he would
not have laid himself so liable 70 be contra
dicted had he solicited these employers 10 visit
certain dens in Chinatown, and the rooms OF
many young clerks who visit these dens and
play at cards in their homes, night after night,
besides spending their time in Billiard saloons,
throwing dice, etc. But il is a notorious un-
truth to say that Pool selling on horse racing
invites or allows these young clerks 10 them.
Time and again certain young men have been
refused participation in Pool selling, and the
first instance has 10 be recorded where they
have made bets IL Pool rooms, unless by chance
they pass their money 20 some one who is known
90 speculate in Pool buying. Certain gentle
manly rules govern Pool selling, just as much
so as specializing in sugar, stock, and all other
exchanges. Gentlemen Of the turf and men of
honor buy in the Pool rooms, because il is n
security 10 them; as bonds are given by the
banker ina full Of the total amount received, and
it is done TO avoid displeasure ia making bets IN
hands. Besides it is done openly, for the reason
il is "A business that is conducted with honor all
over the world. Therefore, il your neiQhbor

other manner il would be much more proper
than trying this sort Of afiectation on the public.

MAUI.

The death Of a little native girl about 6 years
Of age, named Keluia, took place at KaanapAli
near Lahaina, under very singular circumstances.
The girl, along with a little brother Of three
years, accompanied their father to the beach,
who went fishing. The children were occupied
searching in the sand for small crabs, usedfor
bait. The natives will scoop out holes Of d
depth of two feet, or more sometimes, in follow
ing one of these bufrowing crabs to their Utmost
retreat. The children were occupied at one of
these holes and the little girl in her endeavors,
no doubt, 20 scoop and search deeper, had
fallen in head foremost, and the surrounding
brink Of sand quickly falling in, and settling
around her and she not having strength. or
presence of mind enough TO ~extricate herself,
was quickly smothered to death, The cries Of
the little boy, attracted some passers by, who
found the little girl lifeless.
1t is stated that the father had been absent
but a short while from the children and, as the
body was warm when found, this is possibly
one Of those instances, wherein medical skill. II
promptly applied, might have saved a human
life.
