SIR You ask me for an opinion concerning the
reports recently published Of Sabbath observance in
the city. Your statements. If reliable show very
remarkable condition OF society and unless closely
inspected would lead many to believe that our city
was wholly given to idolatry." You would have
done well to add list of the Christian benevo-
lences and charities. that tho intensity of the zeal
OF Christians might also appear.
| am not filed with any spirit of alarm at the
facts presented, for the immense proportion of
foreign born residents who have been accustomed
to a different Sabbah usage largely explains the
multitude of non church goers and pleasure seek
ers. Nor do think that as relgionists we give as
much weight as ought to the consideration that
there two entirely different ideas OF Sabbath OBJ
servance The Christian and the Jew believe re-
lgous observance obligatory; the non reg 0us
only hold and contend for rest and cessation of

WHAT MEN DO WHO BECOME
RICH.
How the Possession of Wealth AfYects
Them.

One of Senator Tabor's partners when
he struck his first bonanza was Ger
man named Richie, who was past the
middle age, had been cobbling SHOE
maker all his life, and fifty dollar
note was an engraving he had never
inspected at nearer range than through
the wicket Of q bank counter. He
got about 100000 The first thing
he did was to build a large brick
house, red in color, and of square and
hideous architectural design, about
two miles distant from the camp or
any other habitation. Then he got
married and retired into this dwelling,
as the knights and barons of medi@val
times retired into their castle keeps
and he only emerged at long intervals
to lay in provisions and chewing to-
bacco. This was his conception of
perfect rest and consequently estate
happiness. He had profound mis-
trust of banks and kept his cash by
him, where thieves could not break in
or moths corrupt One would suppose
that this scheme was open to objec-
tions on the ground of its lack of va
riety, but unk:nd rumor credited the
capitalists wife who was a very
voluble lady, with an ability to keep
him entertained and excited.
A contemporaneous gentleman Of
fortune at Leadville was Captain Con-
ners, we'll known to all residents of
the camp. He has often told me the
story of his first stake He received
$4,000 for his interest in some min
eral property, and it was paid to him
at the bank in four rectangular pack
ages of bills of $4,000 each. The
Captain had kept his good fortune a
secret from his wife and he hurried
home to tell her. She vas sitting
down after hard days work, and
without word he dropped the armful
Of greenbacks in her lap. 1t was a
loyal and touching thing to do. For
moment she sat paralyzed with as
tonishment, and then hugging the
mass up to her she sobbed out.
"Oh, Tom, how dirty they are! Let
me put them in a tub and wash them. "
"Do it if you want to, dear" he re-
piled with tenderness that it would
be well for other rich men of Colorado
to emulate, "but you will never wash
anything else again.

PoRT JARVIS, N. Y, March 20.-The milk
war is unabated. At Otsville, Howells,
Middletown, Hampton, Goshen Chester,
Oxford, Monroe and Turner's, shipments are
practically stopped. Crowds of farmers and
others surrounded the stations to-day. The
first few appearing with milk had it spilled,
and the remainder took home their supplies.
The supply on the branches is also greatly
reduced. The total reaching Jersey City
over the Erie is nearly 1000 cans short One
thousand, five hundred dollars has been
subscribed by Newburg to aid the farmers,
and $500 more is promised if wanted. I'm
less the dealers surrender the milk supply

A DYING RACE.
Ex-Minister Comfy Thinks the Sun of
Hawaii is Setting.

Ex-Minister Comfy Thinks the Sun of
Hawaii is Setting.
Special to Chicago Times.
The volume of foreign relations for 1882,
just published, contains an interesting letter
to Secretary Frelinghuysen from Minister
Comfy, of the Hawaiian islands, He discusses
the future of the Hawaiian islands, ques-
| ton which is considered of great Importance
to the United States, in view of the rapid de-
cadence of the native population Mr.. Com
| ly shows that out of a population of 1000
natives of aboriginal descent there are over
| 700 condemned lepers at the lepers' settle
ment at Moleki. 1t is estimated there are
between 5000 and 5000 concealed lepers on
the islands. The ablest physicians there de-
clare that four-ffths of the natives are
afflicted with the syphilis. The minister
says: "The robust race OF the ancient Kanaka
has shriveled and dwindled to this melan-
choly handful, some of whom are still
of noble physique, and all of whom
| are of amable character, but too many
of whom are crippled by rheumatism,
syphilis, paralysis, OF leprosy. They are Grip
pied alike in person, in morals and in for
tune-in mind, body and estate. There is
no mercantile or manufacturing business in
the kingdom that is owned and managed by
native of full blood"
1t appears from Mr.. Comly's letter that
| not only all the commoners of the race are
disappearing at the rate of l 4 per cent.
year but the chiefs are faring still worse.
The constitution requires that the sovereign
shall be of native or high-chief blood. Of all
the royal family and collateral there is but
one frail little girl half white, the daughter
of Princess Like-Like, to represent the sec
ond generation. Comfy says: Queen Dow
ager Emma is childless; Queen Kapielaui has
no children; Princess Luka {Ruth) sister of
the late Kamehameha, has no heir of her
body to her name or larre estate; Mrs Panaki
Bishop, daughter of old Cnief Pal1i, has never
had q child, and has once refused nomina-
ton to the succession. Unless the genealo-
gical tables OF the kingdom shall be reformed
and enlarged, there is no other family left
| eligible to the throne. The natives do not
recognize the Kalakua family as of high
chief blood. The distinction is made pain
| fully apparent when any of the present fam
I lily are brought in contact publicly with
| Queen Emma or Princess Luka." Comfy
says that the question of the replenishment
of the vital forces of Hawaii demands the
consideration of the United States. 1t will
| require watchfulness to prevent the islands

gogornment be demonstrated; but if this
cannot be done, and done quickly, think
the public welfare demands that the govern
ment should interfere without delay"
Agent Townsend refers to the fact that
armed men from both sides are riding hither
ard thither all over the country, and from re-
liable information he believes them to be
without discipline and in a demoralized con-
dition. In conclusion, he says;
AT best it is a disastrous state of affairs,
bad enough if confined to the limits of their
own reservation, but when a portion of them
carry their campaign into territory not their
own, think it high time some one should
interfere and compel them, at least, to limit
thesr hostile operations to their own country
and their own people. This state of affairs
affords an excellent opportunity for the
many desperadoes who infest the country to
commit depredations on all sides, and there
are indications that they are not slow to take
advantage OF it, and charge it all to the
Creeks"

What Will Interfere with the Aspirations
of Warner NJ, Bateman.


of Warner Nj. Bateman.
Special to Cincinnati Enquirer
Said prominent Ohio Republican to an
Enquirer representative:
Zone thing is certain, whoever is selected
to succeed Judge White in the Cincinnati
district, it will not be Warner NJ Bateman."
"Why not" was asked.
"Did you never hear about Bateman's call
at the White House with Senator Sherman?
1t was when he was first spoken of as an ap-
plicant for the place, shortly after Judge
Swings death. Bateman came on here and
called on Senator Sherman, and the Senator
consented to accompany him to the Execu-
tive Mansion and introduced him to Presi-
dent Arthur. At the same time Mr.
Sherman told Bateman that it would be
the first-and 1 guess the only-favor
he had asked of Mr.. Arthur
Well, the Senator and Bateman called
at the White House, and the Cincinnati law
yer was introduced to the President, who re-
| ceiyed both of them very politely. After a
few minutes conversation, and the object of
their call being made known, the President
asked Bateman to excuse himself and the
Senator, and he invited Nh Sherman into his
private Office. Being seated, The President
tapped bell and sent an attendant for some
papers, which were produced, and from them
the President brought forth a couple of news
paper clippings printed in July, 1880, con-
is;ning alleged interviews with Bateman re-
tecthg, ON the then Vice-pTesident. Mr.
Arthur handed the clippings to Mr.. Sherman
who read them, after which the President in
quired what Mr., Bateman had had to say as to
their authenticity. Well replied the Sena-
tor, he disclaims ever having been inter
viewed, or ever having said what these
clippings attribute to him. Now, Mr..
Sherman, said the President assuming that
this is true-that Mr.. Bateman never did ex-
press himself as quoted here-can you, or can
Mr.. Bateman, show me anything in writing
or in print where he disclaims or denies the
truthfulness of this newspaper interview at
any time since its publication Mr.. Sher-
man admitted that he was unable to do this,
whereupon the President expressed the
opinion that in that case he believed that
Mr.. Bateman had been correctly quoted, and
therefore would decline to further consider
him as an applicant for the judgeship."
Where did you get this sIory?" asked the
Enquirer man.
II got it from a prominent Republican
friend of Senator Sherman, who resides in
Muskingum county, whom the Senator fold,
and who repeated it to me, was the answer.
