ATTEMPTED ESCAPE OF PRISONERS
SUGAR GRINDING.

ATTEMPTED ESCAPE OF PRISONERS
SUGAR GRINDING.
Last Monday n rumor reached
Sheriff Wilcox that there was Il
conspiracy among the prisoners at
Lihue to escape. Nine of them, so
said rumor, were to run together;
and, once away, they thought they
could give the police great trouble
in recapturing them. Four out of
the nine had recently escaped, and
were rctaken well armed. Conse-
quently they were wearing balls and
chains.
But " the best laid schemes o'mice
and men, {" etc. Mr.. Wilcox was at
the prison before the conspirators
got together. The first to come
were those wearing the chains; and
he Insisted upon examining the
shackles. All the rivets were found
filed so that the shacklcs could be
removed by hand. But for the
timely discovery of the plot there
would have been a-heavy expense in
retaking these men, TO say nothing
of the mischief they might have done
while at liberty. How closely the
overseer in charge Of the prisoners
must have attended to business, to
let four men file the rivets of their
shackles! Does not such carelessness
border closely on crime?
Most of the sugar mills on this
island are about beginning Those
at Koloa, Eleele and Waimca have
been running Il short time, and a
number of others will start within
week or two. Crop prospects seem
good, and planters complain of
nothing but prices.

SYMPHONY CLUB CONCERT.

The concert by the above club on
Saturday evening at the Y. NJ. G.. A.
Hall was attended by fair audience,
not by any means so large as it ought
to have been, when it is taken
into consideration that the club has
always assisted when called upon
for any charitable or other purpose.
The concert was in aid of its musical
fund and library, as such an organi-
zation cannot be kept running with
out some slight expense, and new
music must be obtained. Before
commencing the programme Mr.. j.
f. Brown in behalf of the club asked
the indulgence Of the audience, and
stated that, owing TO the indisposi-
ton of Mrs. Patty and Miss Castle
the programme would have to be
slightly altered. The first number
was an overture, "Silver Bell, p"
played well by the club, though the
double bass was played too loud for
the small body of instruments, and
this fact was noticeable throughout
the evening. Mr.. Hasselman gave the
next number, cavatina from Verdi's
Ernani, but we did not care for

NATIONAL pEEENGES.

We return to the consideration of
our recent correspondent letter.
No doubt the kingdom should have
a cruiser, or revenue cutter-perhaps
several craft of that sort could he
employed to advantage. Although
the time must be very remote when
we can afford q naval armament that
would be any protection to our COM
merce on the high seas, yet 4 coast
service for the transport of police or
such troops as we have, in case of
disturbance at any outlying point,
and for revenue duty, might he
within the country's means before n
great while. But such service
can only be operated to the best
advantage when we shall have inter-
island telegraph communication. Our
correspondent had surely not con-
sidered his utteranccs when he wrote
of war risks on our commerce being
reduced on account of any naval
force this country can possibly
afford to establish. While the
greatest Powers cannot get up war
vessel which the inventors of guns
and explosive engines cannot render
untrustworuy, what hope is there
of this little Kingdom being able to
furnish any security to commerce, in
the event of war, in the vast water
stretches on all sides of us? He did
not make it clear, however, whether
he meant war between this and any
other country, or internecine trouble.
If the former, the notion is out Of
all rational discussion. We dare
not talk of such thing, and it
would be madness to prepare for it.
Any act of defending ourselves
against foreign conquest would Sim
ply mean the throwing away of the
guarantee of independence so cheer
fully accorded us by the great
Powers. In case of civil war. our
ocean commerce would have to take
its chances with property on land.
Our naval armament itself, whether
strong or weak, would have to run
the risk of being seized by an in
surgcnt party at the first outbreak.
The advisability of adopting means
of internal protection and security is
not to be caviled at. The question
is as to what is best suited TO the
conditions and the resources of the
country. 1t will, we think, be gen.
orally acknowledged that the expense
and the evils of permanent mill
tary establishment of any size are
all too great to be incurred. What
is feasible and calculated to afford
greater security than any regular
army and navy we can establish or
maintain, is Il good militia system.
a citizen soldiery is the best for this
nation, in every way the matter is
viewed. There is opportunity for
some of our statesmen to distinguish
themselves at the next Legislature
by having passed comprehensive
Militia Act. In the meantime, give
every possible encouragement to our
gallant volunteers.

Some Republicans at home and
abroad are making themselves ridi-
culous by abusing the Prohibition
lists for having exercised their in
alienable rights of citizenship in the
recent election. If the Republican
Party has divine right to perpetual
dominion it should have the courage
to signify it in direct way. The
assumption that all the votes for Mr..
st. John came from the Republican
side is a gratuitous one, anyway.
There are rs good and true temper
ance men in the Democratic faith as
out of it. So far rs the matter is
one Of right, the Prohibition Party
had as much claim upon temperance
mems votes that went to either of
the other parties, as any of them
had upon the votes of its members.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Gospel Temperance Meeting
at the Bethel on Saturday evening,
which was especially for the benefit
of printers, was rather interesting.
One Of the speakers, a printer, how
ever, went little too far in stigma
tizing all the printers of Honolulu as
addicted to drink. The next time
he will please except the typogra-
phical staff of the BULLETIN, which
is thoroughly sober.

She always spoke of her stepchidren with af-
fection, but seldom or never alluded to their
after-career. They appeared to be always
children in her recollection In forgetting the
lapse of years she frequently made strange con
fusion n mixing up the past and present genera
tions IN families. Mrs. Webster had delicate
ta1t and refinement IN always avoiding all disa
greeable subjects, and never by any chance say
ing anything derogatory to another person, Her
worst condemnation of any person was: "They
are not the kiF.d of people for me, but they are
very good in many ways She always abhorred
scandal and never listened to it under any cir
cumstances. There was an anecdote told of her
during her life in Washington which is very

There was a great deal of talk about Mr. Web
ster being attentive to the wife of well known
senator. 1t could not fail to have reached the
ears of Mrs Webster, but she took not the
slightest notice, and treated the lady in question
with the most marked politeness and attention

Rose Eytinge's Troubles.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
LoGANsPoRT, Oct 4-The Rose Eytinge
Leah Combination played at Dolan's Opera
house last night. Owing to failure on the part
of the company to bill the city according to their
contract, the manager of the opera-house ignored
the agreement and demanded rent. To carry his
point he went to the box-offce and pocketed the
receipts, which amounted to $50 more than the
rental demanded At the close of the second
act, Miss Eytinge appeared before the curtain
and stated the difficulties between her and Man
ager Dolan, and asked the audience if, under
the circumstances, it was desired that she
should proceed with the play. She charged her
printers with being responsible for the failure of
her manager to send the stipulated amount of
advertising matter. By her clear and honest
statement she completely captured her audience,
and, amidst loud applause, was urged to proceed
with the play. sympathy in the matter is en-
tirely with the company, as it is not believed
that Manager Dolan had sufficient grounds for
breaking his contract.

One of the new casts at the art school is
head of Racchus. somewhat larger than life,
and of the most exquisite beauty This head
and face, representing the prime of youth, is
crowned with heavy, half-curling hair ant a
twist Of wild grape vine, and the counteaance is
expressive of that agreeabeness, cheerfulness
q nd pleasure in life which the ancients used to
consider the effect of their temperate use of
wine. The pose and whole turn of the head is
godlike and noble, and the profile is most charm
ing When plaster is fresh and white from the
moders hands it almost equals marble All in
terested in art are invited to call at theart school,
English Building, and see it. The school itself
is no mean sight, with the pupils at work. This
school and the other endeavors of the Art Asso-
citation deserve the highest commentator.

THE LIBEL ON MIR. BLAINE.
What an Honorable Newspaper Thinks of
the Attack on a Noble Woman.

Frank Leslles Weekly.
We think that Mr. Blaine should have re-
Trained from any reply to the particular charge
laid at his door. This charge was of q sort sell
dom encountered in our politics IL was, in
brief that his first child born only two or
three months after his marriage to the lady who
for thirty years has been his wife. Mr.. Blaines
moral character has been eonspicuously pure
and his domestic life so harmonious that
he did not need to reply to an asper-
sion like this He should have said: 'My
married life OF thirty years is the only answer
deign to offer to these outrageous charges My
family history for all those years is before the
country My faithful wife; my reputable chill
dren grown to men and woInen-in their name
/ scorn to reply. The country would, in such
an exceptional case, have approved this attitude
of dignifed contempt; but Mr.. Blaine has been
for years in the focus of that binding light that
beats upon a candidate, and with his chivalrous
nature he no doubt felt that he must speak, at
the risk of hurting all the sensibilities of those
he loved
He spoke. He alleged that there was pri-
vate marriage almost year before the public
marriage, and he named the WITNESSES who were
present. That the private marriage was vio-
lation of Kentucky law he did not know at the
time; soon us he suspected IT he had another
performed in the usual way. All an honorable
man could do 1t is enough. Most people felt
at the beginning that the issue was not fit one
to raise, whether the allegations were true or
false; but most men, without regard to party,

home is perfect. The charge cannot have
any influence on the election, unless, indeed,
the persistence of the original exploiters in re
iterating it after it has been answered, or tue
ghoul like desecration of the chds grave, should
induce some Democrats to vote for him Mrs.
Blaine is a woman of austere virtues and rigid
principles; she knows her mind; she has never
had much sympathy with the cheap frivolities of
Washington society. She is not socially ambi
tious. but all her hopes and aspirations are cen
tered in her husband and her home. The tender
praise which Mr. Blaine has often bestowed on
his wife as his chief assistant in his work recalls
that peerless eulogy which Mrs. John Stuart
Mill evoked from the pen of her illustrious
husband. ''She is my sheet etanchor and
my prop, eXciaims Mr., Blaine; "she
has been my untiring assistant always

spseches. | don't suppose | should ever have

duction of indelieate questions into the cam

Handwriting and Typo-yyriting.

Gath s New York Letter.
Note for instance what a thing the type
writer has got to be. 1t is said that this iHyen-
ton WAS started in Milwaukee by a man who
manufactured blank books and after they were
bound had certain letters stamped on some of
their pages. He wanted TO make blank books
by the ten million and started to find somebody
who would contribute the mechanics. They
fused along from year to year, until about
1873 they got the type writer almost as it IS
and sent 1t to the Remington gun factory to be
made. OF all the engines of war turned out by
that place it is the most revolutionary The
young woman who formerly drummed the piano
from morning till night now executes on the
type writer She thinks she can get employ
mcnt, and if not that, she can see her own con
trbutions in print. The merchant finds that he
master has gone out of use If there are any
longer perfect systems of penmanship, they are
given up to the small boys The next thing at
hand is said to be a type writer into which you
can talk, telephone fashion, and it will make the
