The Premier Never Thought of II.

Our critical contemporary, the Press,
of last Saturday devotes the best part of a
column to a diatribe upon Il little article
which appeared in the DAILY p. G. ADVER-
TISER last week, in which the idea was adj
vanced that Manana Island, Off Waimanalo,
might be made available as a quarantine
station. The idea is supposed by the Press
writer to have originated in the brain of
the Premier, and it is i~nsinuated that the
object to be attained is to nave an opportu-
nifty to expend more money and WELD more
patronage. Both suppositions are alto
gether incorrect, the Premier having had
no more to do with suggesting the idea
than our contemporary n
The article that has acted on the suscept-
IDLE nerves or the opposition writer like a
red rag waived in sight of a turkeycock, was
not written with any Interior designs upon
the public pure; nor, we may add, do we
believe that idiocy as limited is a prevalent
complaint in this community. Neverthe-
less, the Press having entertained the idea
of a quarantine ground OH Manana Island
seriously" through nearly a column,
must not blame us for having not relied i'm
vain upon a certain amount of the COM
plant it speaks of being prevalent " in its
Sanctum.

Coronation of the Car.

1t is said that in Russia, a Car is not a
Car, until he is crowned. Until his has
been done he cannot make a treaty of peace
or declare war. He is, as it were, under a
regency of his Ministers, who must sign all
valid. If a Gar should die before he was
crowned, he would not receive the burial
hOnOrs which are due to a crowned Gear,

cow is undoubtedly the greatest ceremony
of the world. Several months previous to
the day fixed for the coronation official in
vitations are sent to all crowned heads and

Now, seriously, all this violent expression
and ~objurgation is put forth by a disappoint-
ed editor, who is trying to create a strife
without any occasian for one, and to raise n
question about issues which do not eXist.
His reference to n people who have "waded
through a sea of blood" in their struggle
for political rights, and his allusion to a
dethroned and decapitated sovereign as
though it had some application in this
country at the present Time, would be
criminal and well calculated to provoke
pursuit were it not for its groundlessness
and absurdity. We feel assured that this
welLto-do community, alive with business
and taxed lighter than any other cOmmu-
nifty in the world, realise SO fully the sense
Iessness of such talk that it would not be
wisdom for the authorities, or for us as
journalists to treat the matter seriously.

Borrowing a Clergymans Boy

A sorry is told by a Toledo West End
preacher OH brother minister that
will bear repeating. Recently cir
Gus was in the city and the ministerial
curiosity was SO awakened that an out
side sketch of the canvas would not
suffice. The minister had compunc-
tions of conscience against the gratifi-
cation of what he fancied might be a
questionable desire. However, his lib
erality of belief would permit of the
children going, and of their seeing all
there was to be seen, provided they
had some good-sized masculine protec-
tor with them. But unfortunately for
him, he had no children, and was,
therefore--to use an unorthodox ex-
pression-s'in hole" Finally he
hit upon plan. He went to another
and tried to borrow his year
old boy as companion to the circus.
But it wouldn't work, the preacher
i've waited a long time
for my boy to get big enough to go to
the circus, and now want to use him
myself

Emerson concert troupe gave an entertain
r1ent here on Saturday evening, and Sunday
evening Walter Emerson, who is noted
cornet player, left the Vanderbilt house

after little Irritation she invited him to her
rooms, alleging that her husband was out of
town. They disrobed and went to bed,
VIXEN Mr.. Fay suddenly appeared on
the scene. He demanded satisfaction,
and war of words followed. In the mean
time Emerson had dressed. He accused Fay
of putting up matchmaking scheme. Fay
demanded settlement of the case Emer-
son demanded the S. which he had given Mrs.
Fay, and seemed SO determined that the
money was refunded and he was allowed to
leave the house. He reported the matter to
the police, who arrested Mrs. Fay. Mr.. Fay

strolling and fined S25.

Wedding in High Life.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Nov. 20.-There have been
thousands of applications for tickets that will

Ad0Dtfris. New Time.

CHIcAGo''Nov. 20.-The new standard time
went into effect quite generally Sunday at
noon. All the railroads except the North
western, Milwaukee & st. Paul, Illinois Cen
trail, and Michigan Central, began to run their
trains under the new regime without confu-
sion. The four exceptions are unable to
get their new timetables fixed up, but will
fall into line next Sunday. The Illinois
Central finally decided to go with the crowd,
finding that it would be an accommodation,
rather than cause Of vexation, to their
patrons. Such hotels as did not turn back
their clocks nine minutes will do so. The
jewellers adopted the new standard with SO
much unanimity as could be expected.

Rochester special: 1t is now about
three months since the beautiful city
of Rochester was visited by the saw
age cyclone of August last, Staying
humanity and tearing up the very
earth in it's course, leveling 300 build
ings to the ground and making home
less nearly 1000 people. Of the 500
buildings destroyed, about seventy
have already been replaced with new
ones, and the $4,000 of relief money,
received from all parts of the country
has been expended to relieve sufferers
and destitute families, and the winter
drawing near will find most of them
in small way prepared to receive it.
The Methodist edifice, a brick struct-
ure. which was nearly ruined by the
furious elements, is being built ut a
cost of about $4,000, and isnow receiv-
ing it's roof, but cannot be completed
for months yet. The large and com
handing court house which lost its
dome and received general tearing
to pieces, is not fully repairid after
over two months of steady work put
upon it. The high school buidin ing.
which was partially beheaded, is not
yet fully repaired, and will await the
return of another spring to receive a
new tower and town clock. Vedder's
brick block, 100 by so feet and two
stories high, which was nearly leveled
to the ground, has been rebuilt and is
again occupied. The graves of more
than a score of victims who drew their
last breath during the fearful moments
of that sad day, when stout and brave
men trembled with fear of the defiant
and furious storm, sought safe places
of refuge from its vengeance, are still
fresh, but the head-stones that mark
the places of the crushed and mutilated
victims scattered about the Rochester
cemetery will tell the last sad story
of that terrible day to future genera
taOns.

A WELL-kEPT SECRET. .
Married for Two Years and Nobody
the Wiser.


the Wiser.
LOUISVILLE, Nov. 20.--One of the most
prolonged secret marriages that was ever UNI
earthed in this vicinity was revealed in a
street car, when two elegantly dressed ladies
sat opposite a reporter, one of whom was
unfolding the news that Willie and Lizzie
were soon to begin housekeeping together,
and that they were married in January, 1881,
but had never lived together, and the
matrimonial alliance was still a secret. With
this tip the cue was taken, and soon the resi-
dence of Mrs. Charlotte Thomas, 1918 Port
land avenue, was sought, and in this good old
lady's presence her daughter Lizzie admitted,
when questioned, that on the 18th of January,
1881, she was joined in the holy bands by
Squire Keigwin, at Jacksonville, to MIR.
William d. Virden, one of the gentlemanly
clerks at Rogers C Tuley's establishment on
Third street.
''Has the marriage been secret between
you since then?'
Eyes. We thought it better to keep it quiet
until we were ready to let it be known"
care you considering the propriety of in
forming your friends in the early futures"
"Well, we are improving the old home here
now, and when the repairs are completed we
will let it be known"
'Was there any special object in keeping
your wedding a secret for nearly two years.?
eyes, my husband didn't care to inform
his people of it until we had earned suffi-
cient sum to fix up the old home. We both
work, and have been saving our earnings,
and at last have the work you see going on
in progress
''Then you have been enjoying quite ro-
nance all to yourselves?"
eyes, sir; but we are both tired of it, and
will be glad when the time arrives that we
will meet to part no more unless death creeps
between US
Mrs. Virden was quite frank in her admis-
sions, but was cautious to invoke the scribe
to call upon Mr.. Virden before giving away
tho romance.

The Nelson Tragedy.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Nov. 90 Mrs Jasper
Nelson, wife of the alleged matricide, accom-
panied detective to the Prairie house, an
obscure hotel in the eastern part of the
city, and showed him where her husband
had registered Sept. 1 as "Henry
Nelson and wife, Chicago" The
prosecuting attorney has letter which Mel
son wrote to his mother at Anderson of that
date, asking her to join him here, where he
could take her to attend a spiritual seance.
Nelson and wife, SO the letter says, went to
Brazil few days latter, and one night he
was absent nearly all night Before this he
was almost broke, but afterward had plenty
of money.

LONDON, Nov. 20.-Despite assertions to
the contrary, it is now pretty well understood
that Mr.. Redmond's mission to Australia has
resulted disastrously. His efforts there in
favor of the National league have not aroused
the enthusiasm that was looked for, and it is
suspected that ostensible contributions are
coming out of Mr.. Redmonds own pockets.
1t is stated that by his recent marriage he &C
quired fortune of 100000.

Farmers Companion: One of the
most common mistakes in farming is
the attempt to cultivate too much
land. Too much work is laid out and
too little done.
The ground is imperfectly prepared
and poorly seeded. The whole work
is rushed, and though the labor is per-
formed late and early, the work is
never over TAKEN. There is always
more to do than can be done with so
few hands. The result is hard years
work and no profit, with sometimes,
the conclusion that farming does not
pay"
