de desagravio y simpatia que a

de union que ha hecho despertar
de su letargo a muchos incautos.
La cohesion vuelye a ser en- las

duradera, s6lida y admirable.
Todos los periodicos integris-

iNuevo desengano para el au-
tonomismo que habia asumido en-
aquel enojoso asunto un papel
parecido al de la serpiente del

iNuevo triunfo, solemne, pre-
cioso, para la union de los buenos
espanoIeS de Cuba!
Nosotros 10 proclamamoS hen
chidos de entusiasmo.
Que, espanoles como nuestros

La union es La fuerza.
Sin ella, que nos es indispen-

THREATENING no SHOOT.

Shortly before half past one this
afternoon a quarrel took place in the
yard of the Hawaiian Carriage Man
ufactory, between Mr.. Cameron and
a man named Monroe, Il blacksmith
who works at the Marine Railway.
After receiving some strong Ian
guage loudly uttered by Cameron,
Monroe also obtained a slap in the
face. Monroe Immediately drew
from his hip pocket, loaded six
shooter and aimed at Cameron. L.
B. Murray, who works at the Homo
lulu Carriage Factory, seized Monroe
from behind, tripped him up and
took the loaded weapon which was
handed to Mr.. Schuman. then to
Mr.. j. /. Dowsett, Senior, who
returned it for safe keeping to Mr..
Schuman.
The police were informed of the
matter, but, owing to the arrival of
Kaui the runaway at the Station
House, they came late upon the
scene. One of the force however
passed down Fort street, across
Queen, when the crowd was assem-
bled, waited till there was time for
them to disperse and then came
along Queen to survey the premises.

Tnn mich LAM.

President Grevy has a regal rival
in the making of jam. The Queen
of Saxony, it seems, excels in jam
making, and the cupboards of her
palace are filled with pots of pre-
serves to an extent which would pro-
badly satisfy even Mr.. Gladstone.
Her Majesty spends whole weeks in
in the autumn making jam, and posi-
lively balances her housekeeping book
daily. Unfortunately, taste for the
royal jam is not very prevalent at the
Saxon coxrt. The courtiers, in spite
of their desire to be complimentary,
find their capacity for jam-eating
limited, and the bulk of the Queens
preserves are distributed to the poor
of Dresden-to such an extent, in
deed, that there is q weak, dpropoS
joke prevalent in the capital that
Her Majesty never goes out, even
when unattended, Swith out q suit!"

THE chain and ball prisoner Kaui,
who escaped last week from the
quarry, was caaght this morning at
Leilekua by Anakaleia, the deputy
sheriff. He was safely returned to
the custody of the Deputy Marshal
at 80 p. NJ, but how long he will
safely remain there is another ques-
ton. His fellow bolter is reported
to have gone to Koolau, and is stip-
posed to have stolen, last night, a
saddle from Mr.. .Houghtailing at Pa
lama and horse from Portuguese
who lives opposite to Mr.. Lucas.
Kaui should receive two or three
dozen lashes in public.

HORSE MARINES.

"The use of a mirror, wrote Mac
aulay, in q. certain famous review,
''is not to be painted en-" But re-
volving years have proved that Mac
aulay was wrong, for painted mirror
is now an ordinary drawing-room or
nament. Again, it was formerly
supposed that horse marines were at
least as mythical as the Greek Ka-
lends, but we have changed all that.
A telegram from Suakim informed
us the other day that ''some of ma
rines are being mounted" Thus a
horse marine is no longer myth, but
a stern reality. So, one by one,
vanish the most cherished illusions
of our earlier days.-LJe.

THE CIRCUS.

Saturday nights performance of
the circus was decidedly the best
that has been given. The per-
formers had profited by our hint,
last week, of their shortcomings,
and evidently determined to retrieve
their lost laurels. From first to
last there was not hitch in the pro-
gramme as given. Many new acts
were included and the audience was.
well pleased. The horse Barney in
jured himself, before the perform
ance, by running against stake and
losing large part of his skin. The
injury, however, did not seem to
affect him, and he was even able to
dance to the badly rendered waltz.
Harry Morosco, when he appeared
with his pair of ponies, was stopped
in the ring by DR.. McAllister, who
decorated each of the ponies and
their rider with handsome leis, pre-
sents from the boys fair admirers.
The gifts were evidently appreciated
as the act was unusually well per-
formed and the ponies seemed to
feel that they had received special
honor by their Hawaiian decora,
tions.
The last performance of the circus,
in Honolulu, will take place tonight
and the prices of admission have
been considerably reduced, as will
be seen by reference to our adver-
tising columns.

Rain in Arizona.

The heaviest rain fall known for years
occurred Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
1t extended over all the country lying
between here and the Pinal mountains,
and the water rushed down through the
mountain gorges in roaring torrents,
sweeping everything before it. The
damages to roads is serious. In some
places they are completely obliterated.
Between Pinal and Silver King, Monday
evening, Charlie Miller had to leave the
stage and carry the mail on his back for
nearly two miles. all the mesa country
lying between here and Whitlow Station
was covered by sea of water and the
Pinai stage, due Lere at l2 M, did not
arrive till 5P.M. ALI the teams caught
out on the road mired down and had to
"lay up" Sam Bostic, who had started
to Pinal with load Of peaches and mel
ons, had to abandon his wagon between
here and Brison's well and return home
with his horses. At Riverside the river
raised three feet inside of two or three
hours, as all the csfions on the south
slope of the Dripping Springs range
emptied vast volumes Of water into the
Gila. The Globe and Florence road,
through Cane Springs Canon, is seriously
washed out. The rain was somewhat Of
q surprise, as old timers asserted that
the rainy season had passed by. The
climate Of Arizona is undergoing change
and the weather signs Of yore can no
longer be relied upon. Florence Enter

Chloride OF Magnesium In the Tex
tile Industry.

Chloride Of magnesium, or ''crystal-
size, is white salt which greedily at
tracts moisture and melts, therefore,
easily into a liquid, or much more color
less. liquid Of considerable specific weight,
neutral reaction and anti-septic, but not
deleterious qualities. 1t can be employed
with advantage for all substances to be
kept in certain condition Of moist
ness, and which it protects against
mold and ranoidity. To these quail
tiles its employment in the textile in
dustry is due, where 1t serves as q
sizing material, or as q dressing for
yarns. or as a carbonizer for wool.
The manner of applying it is very
simple, viz: it is dissolved in either cold
or hot water, in the proportion OF .
parts to chloride OF magnesium, and
this solution Of about 30 to So Be, is
added to the sizing mass, which consists
generally Of wheat or potato starch
mixed with China clay. The quantity
of chloride Of magnesium to be added
depends upon the degree Of humidity,
which 1t is desirable to give the yarns or
tissues, and can be equal. II necessary.
to the weight of starch. Ths advan-
tages presented by its use, are as follows;
The yarns become and remain soft and
pliable; they neither fuzz nor break; the
weaving is rendered much easier, even
in hot and dry weather. 1t gives the
finished pieces high luster and renders
the color more vivid.
The carbonization Of wool is effected
with chloride Of magnesium in general
manner, as it is split, under the action
Of high degree Of heat, in hydrochloric
acid and basic chloride of magnesium.
The liberated hydrochloric acid destroys
all vegetable fibers which may be mixed
with the wool.-M. d. /. T.
