story has it that she is going to the
Japanese seas to fish for salmon;
another, that she is going north

idea is that she is going to the Rus

sake of their skins. She is well
equipped, and OIL board Of her are
a number of her joint owners who arc
going to take part in the expedition

THE GEOLOGICAL HISTORY OF THE
HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.

tCONIINtEDD
There was a theory that once this
part of the Pacific was occupied by
vast continent, which had become
gradually submerged. leaving the
tops of its highest mountains as ISL
ands, OF as bases for coral insects
to build up islands from. An island

dip Of 6,70O feet just beyond the
limits of its coral reef, it was there

have been built up by the coral ami
mails; but he thought that the same
dip would have been made if the
substrata of the island were of vol
canic origin, which would 90 far to
initiate against the submerged con-
tincnt theory. Then again if there
had been a continent here there
would have been plenty of animal
life for, as the continent gradually
went under the living things would
have rctreated to the highest points.
But what was the caseI Notwith-
standing that the situation and eli
mate of the islands are extremely
favorable to life, all animals and
plants seem to have been introduced
here in an accidental way. For in

THE REQUEST of the Secretary of
the Treasury that our Consul General
in Egypt be instructed to have his sub
ordinates inspect all rags gathered for
export to the United States is proper
and timely. 1t is said that one New
York firm has now over sixty thousand
tons of rags stored in Alexandria
awaiting shipment to this country.
The principal products of Egypt seem
to be cholera, rags and False Prophets,
and the cholera and rags are extremely
sociable and accustomed to travel
about in each others society. 1t is
proposed to boil or fumigate all the
cholera out of these rags before they
are shipped over here to the land Of
the free and the home of a high pro-
tective tariff, and if the TRANSCRIPT
is consulted about the matter it will
say, boil 'em CT fumigate 'em until

In their report to the judges, the
Grand Jury for the December term of
the Circuit Court for Cecil county, Nd,
call attention, "with feelings of regret, +"
to the almost entire disregard of the
obligation Of an oath on the put of the
majority of the witnesses who testified
before the jury in regard to infringe
ment of the local option law. Thejury
express their belief that whiskey and
other intoxicating liquors are being
largely sold in the county, chiefly in the
disguise of cider, and they recommend
that the Legislature be requested to
s'place cider with the other intOXicat-
ing beverages whose sale is now pro-
hibited.' This is bad state of af-
fairs. and cider will probably have to
90, not because it Is Il very very tbfffttt bad beEE-
erage but because whiskey is travelling
around in Cecil with cider's name and
overcoat. Cider is a funny liquor. In
Delaware it is not dangerous drink.
One may take several glasses Of it while
it is at palatable age and not feel any
the worse of it, but soon as you cross
the line into Maryland, cider is a differ
ent person, so to speak. 1t will handle
YOU roughly. 1t will make you think
you own the world and have mortgage
on the moon. 1t will 60 to your feet
and to your head and rake up old per-
sonalities all through your system. 1t
will take you by the slack Of the back
and wipe up the floor with you. 1t
will make you sorry if you look upon it
while it fzzes. Verify, Cecil county
cider should go.

SaPah'S HOPSewhiD,

The cable dispatches from Paris give
a lively picture of the successful horse
whipping of Marie Colombier by Sarah
Bernhardt, on Tuesday afternoon,
amid the fragments of the furniture OF
the formers boudoir, which was
wrecked in the encounter, while NJ.
Soudan, who came to Colombier's res
cue, was clutched by the throat by M.
Richepin, who had rapidly followed
Bernhardt to the scene of action. The
motive for the chastisement was a
scandalous publication by Colombier
concerning Bernhardt, which earlier in
the day had furnished occasion for a
duel with swords between M. Bonnie
tain, who was Colombier's partner i'll
the literary enterprise, and NJ. Mirbeau,
who had criticized it as an abominable
libel. 1t will be remembered that
Marie Colombier was the leading lady
in Sarah's company while in this
country.
