ne Is OUR phOTEviuR.

In speaking Of the Java catas-
trophe our daily contemporary says,
" But amid all these unparalleled
catastrophies abroad, Hawaii has
only been prosperous and entirely
exempt from all considerable mis-
otuLes. AS q nation she has acted
for herself in all things as was for
the best, and benignant heaven has
protected her prosperity against all
manner of calamities. Therefore
the whole country has especial rea-
son to be contented and grateful" ;"
1t will be noticed that our freedom
from disaster and calamities is due
in the first instance because Hawaii,
't as q nation has acted for herself
in all things as was for the best "
and that "benignant heaven " comes
in as an aftcr-thought. We have to
thank Walter Murray Gibson and
his administration for being "ex.
empt from all considerable mis-for-
tunes =" such as have visited Ischia
and Java. He is our protector and our
saviour. Had not an all-wise pro-
vidence placed him in power, then,
we would long since, have been food
for the fishes, devourcd in the fiery
furnace or converted into sulphide
| of calcium. Let no man fail to re-
member it. Let us fall down and
worship him for amongst us there is
no man like unto him. Wiggins
prophesies, Gibson controls, Great
is the name of Gibson.

GERMAN LA30RERS.

Within the last few weeks over
s.xty German laborers have been
brought to Honolulu for refusing to
carry out the terms OF their con
tracts. AS such instances have been
unknown among Portuguese or Chi
nese laborers it seems a very natuva
opinion to form that either the right
class of Germans have not beeh
brought to this country or that they
are not the kind of labor that we re-
quire, of the last men, thirty three in
number, that were tried at the Po-
ice Court, there was not one who
had auy reasonable grounds for com
plant. Their charges were all OF a
trumpery character so much so that
Mr.. Glade who was present, in their
interests for two days during the
hearing of the cases, said 'they wee
most unreasonable men" and with
drew. Some of them complained
that their half of land had not
been shown to them, though they
confessed to having worked on it,
others said that their beef and sugar
were of short weight, others thai
their houses leaked, that they were
sick and could not work hard, that
thew had to work with Portuguese,
that their food was bad, that they
wanted another doctor, that they had
not enough benches in their houses
that they wanted separate house
for each single man, that they had
worked overtime without extra pay,
that the manager swore at them Gt
cannot be wondered at if he did),
that they had no bedsteads, that
there was too much bone in the
meat, that it was stale, and other
complaints of like character. The
most amusing were those OF the man
who complained that his aunt told
him his sugar was short in weight,
the man who wanted to fix his own
pay day and upset the regular plan
tation routine and the man who did
not receive his gallon of alcohol that
he wanted to turn into whisky and
which he thought the manager must
have kept.
1t appeared in evidence that hard
ly one of these men had made their
complaints TO the manager before
they appeared in Court, which was
the first intimation he had received
of what was wrong. The loss to
the plantation from the waste OF
time in bringing the manager, his
assistants and the laborers, on ac-
count of such trifes, is very consi-
derable besides being exceedingly
annoying to all parties concerned.
and we are quite sure that there are
no employers of labor on these is
lands who are anxious to secure any
large number of German laborers.

How to Detect classical Music.


can give you simple rule by which
the most ignorant may know whether
any given piece of music should or
should not be admired. Ii You know at
once what it is all about; if it seems to
be saying, l, 2, 3, hop, hop, hop, or l,
2, 5, bang, bang, bang, You may con
clude at once that You are listening to
something of very low order, which it
is your duty to despise. But when you
hear something that sounds as if an as
sorted lot of notes had been put into a
barrel and were being persistently stir
red up, like kind of harmonious Cruel,
you may know it's fugue, and safely
assume an expression of profound in
terest If the notes appear 90 have been
dropped by accident, and are being fish
ed up at irregular intervals in a sort of
placid or drowned condition, it is likely
to be a nocturne; and nocturnes, you
know, are quite too utterly lovely for
ANYTHING. If the notes seem to come in
carloads, each load of different kind
from the last, and if the train seems to
be an unreasonably long time in passing
given point, it will turn out most like
ly to be a symphony; and symphonies
are just the grandest things that ever
were. If the notes appear to be dump
ed out in masses, and shoveled vigorous
ly into heaps, and then blown widely
into the air by explosions of dynamite,
that's rhapsody; and rhapsodies are
among the latest things in music.

A Gall Bird,

Old Man Franklin, father of the goat

making living. He was passing down
Wheat street yesterday carrying in his
hand a curiously-shaped bird cage in
which ayoung hooking bird was screeeh-
ing away for dear life

Spouse. did you never see a trap like
this?" asked the old man.
The reporter confessed that he had
never beheld such an affair, and the old
man got down on his knees on the side
walk, and ''set'' the trap, The trap con-
sisted Of wire cage, about half as large
as candle-box, and slanting to point
at the top like the roof of house. On
each side was wing made of network,
and attached to the lower sides of the
cage by little hinges and operated by
stout springs. These wings were passed
out, and trigger was set to hold them
in position. The young bird was put
inside of the cage to scream and act as
caller. The idea was to let the young
bird call the old one. As soon as an
old one would fly down to the cage and
light on the trigger, the wing would fly
over and secure it.
lit never fails, p" remarked the old man
as he sprung the trigger, and the wing
closed against the side of the cage with
crash.
DO you catch many birds?" asked
the reporter.
Il caught over forty mocking birds

started for this year, but l caught two

The old man is about blind, and goes
