A Story OF a Queen.

The arrival in this city the other day
of that "Queen of Tahiti who was
no Queen of Tahiti at all, reminds me
of story the Queen-Dowager Emma,
of the Hawaiian Islands. told me of her
experience the first time she visited San
Francisco. Emma" as she Is fami-
iarly but always respectfully spoken of
by her people, Is three-quarters..' white.
as the Repression goes, being the
daughter of an English father and n
"half-white" (Hawaiian and English)
mother. She is, therefore. not darker
than decidedly brunette Caucasian.
In her suite of females were number
of half-white and pure blooded Hawaii
ans. One of the latter was strapping
big girl with the independent swagger
and upright carriage peculiar to Sand
witch Island women of all classes, and
this woman nearly every one here who
saw the party insisted upon was the
Queen. She was big and very dark,
which satisfied the popular idea con
corning Emma better than the Queens
own proper description: petite in per-
son and comparatively light in COM
plexion. "Lalani," that was the big
girls name, received the homage of
clerks, shop people, chambermaids,
walters, bell-boys, aud the uniformed
public generally, with such evidences
of royal condesccnsion as she thought
the occasion demanded, being en-
couragcd in maintaining the common
dclusion by the Queen, who thus cs-
capped in and out of the hotels and
stores, ETC., unnoticed and unincon-
vcnienced. The party was in fash
ionablc dry-goods house one day when,
as usual, tho crowd was thickest
around Lalani and thinnest about En-
ma The former, seeing some partcu-
larry rich and dazzlingly bright silk
and velvet, ordered liberal supply for
dress, TO be sent to her hotel. "And
when shall send the bill, your Males
typ inquired the over-cautious though
obseauious salesman.
"Oh, never mind about that, Lalani
will pay the cash now" replied Lalani
herself. and then, attracting the Queen $
attention by speaking in native TO her,
added in English: "Herc, Lalani, see
what my bill is and pay il please"
To have rebuked the hussy there
would have made scene, but that con-
sideration aside, the splendid assurance
of the girl and the sight of the half
grinning, half-affrighted faces of the
other women i'm the suite, drove out of
her mind whatever Indignation the
Queen may have felt. Stepping to the
salesman she inquired: ''How much,
pleasep'
The Queen rather chokcd at the an
swer: "$l15, please" but swallowing
her amazement the best she could, pro.
ceeded to settle the bill in good gold
coin, while the triumphant and only
slightly trembling real Lalani regarded
{ the success of the joke in apparently
( queenly indifference to such trifles a
dry-goods bills.
In telling this story Queen Emma
concluded: ~ never even rebuked the
girl, who, l aftcrward learned, playet

Literary Mechanism and Literary Art.

IL seems at first incredible to say that
literature suffers from the cncroach-
ment of the moneyed power, but a
little observation will show that asser-
ton TO be true. Especially il is true in
New England, where literary rank is
priced above rubies, though one may be
rubies, too. Individuals who are cult
waited and appreciative aspire TO the
dignity of authorship. Destitute of one
spark of the divine fire, but having the
fair library style that is part of n good
education and intelligence, added TO
the prestige of wealth and social posi-
ton, they write their books (Which are
usually compilations and secure their
publishers. Why not? Publishing Il
book is a merchanical operation, and
there is no more reason why woman
of wealth should not employ apublishcr
TO bring out her book than there is why
she should not employ Worth TO devise
her costume.
Yet, let us give this species of literary
mechanics due Difference. IL is usually
work done with special advantages;
with wide resources, refined tastes,
with the special cultivation of familiar
ity with literatures and foreign lands,
and other advantages open only TO the
weather. classes. Books of the com
pilation order prepared in this manner
are often of value that fully justiles
their being, and are also usually of a
character whose preparation absolutely
demands the conditions of wealth and
leisure TO produce them. But they are
works of literary art and should so be
regarded. This mechanism has its
legitimate place, and accorded respect
when il applies itself TO the cncyclo-
pedic class of literature, TO the collcc'
tons and compilation which form sc
valuable and so indispensable an Gle
mcnt in libraries; but when it assumes
the creative order Of work, its intrinsic
chcapncss is apparent, and just literary
criticism takes no social position as /:
factor in is conclusions. Boston Trdret

How Long Will IL Last I?

The calculations about the British
coal-felds have set statisticians at work
to determine how long the anthracite
coal of this country will last. Our soft
or bituminous coal is practically mex
haustiblc, but cast Of the Rocky Noun
tians. so far rs known, hard OF anthra-
cite coal is confined to limited area in
the State of Pennsylvania, There are
800, 900 square miles Of hard coal coun-
try i'm that State. Estimating u hundred
tons to the acre in depth, would give
800, 600, 900 tons. As the various strata
of coal would average thirty feet in
depth, a grand total of 1000, 900, 900 rep
resents the total production. As the
present consumption is 30,O00,000 tons
per annum, il will be over three hundred
years before the Pennsylvania supply
will be exhausted. Some very fine an
thracitc coal has been found In Colorado
and other strata of Il will doubtless be
uncovered in parts of the extreme west,
ern country, but with our vast stores OF
bituminous coal, our wood, and petro-
leum, there is no danger Of a want oil
fuel for thousand years ahead, no
matter how dense our population. Then
IL Is not unreasonable to believe that
chemistry may give us new heat pro
ducing combinations which will dispense
with the use Of our present fuels.-Den'
