participated, and in whose profits he
shared. Some OF his comrades he be-
uayed dishonorably after he found

OF 1t, was better policy and
more profitable. The present ma

agreed to settle an annuity OF $4,000.
The Sultan remained at the north end
OF the straits, while his comangong,
who remained at the southern end, stole
his jungle produce aud defrauded him
out OF the revenue. The Sultan was i'm
provident, and got into the hands Of the
Jews, and by this means he
was forced to transfer for
small annuity certain number Of
square miles Of his territory to his
comangong, the British enc orsing the
bargain. He still retained a consilera-
be exteEt Of land, but largely jungle
and unproductiye. Some American
gentlemen, not Of large means, who had
watched the growth of the planting in
terest on the peninsula of Malacca. OBJ
tanned grants Of land from the Sultan,
hired laborers, brought implements,
and began improvements.
While these things were in progress
the Sultan died, and the British Gov
eminent most ungencrously, not to say
dishonorably, refused to pay the an
nuity to his family, and with sinisf r
designs appointed the Sultan's former
oomangong, now mabarajah of Johorc,
governor Of his territory. So the way
was paved for its absorption. Scarcely
had the appointment been made when,
though the British authorities at Singi-
pore had informed the American plant
ers that the Sultan was an
independent ruler and had per-
feet right to transfer his land to
them. he began all manner of mean
and malicious prosecutions, with view
TO driving them from their property.
He stole their cattle, destroyed their
Improvements, and threatened their en-
ployes with violence. so that they were
forced to leave the estates. His Eng
lish secretary, Hall. the same who has
been in the habit Of mimicking the ma
harajah'S American guests after their
departure, was heard to VOW that
he would drive the Yankees out
of the Malayan peninsula. All
except ore or two in despair sban-
doned their Improvements and left
the country. The one or two who re-
main are constantly harasSed by his
agents in passing to and fro. And all
this on property to which tbe English
author tiles confessed that neither they
nor ne Maharaiah of Jobore he'd any

perfectly competent to grant a PEI feet

of seycral American citizens, this c"es-

and that he will be treated Ike a king.

The Popn,ar opera season.

The rival theatre managers Of Washing
ton have inaugurated season of popular
opera that is proving more successful than
they themselves had dreamed of. Classic
music, by the best singers of the country,
at twenty-five cents head, is not only y
novelty, but an opportunity which cul.
tured community will never neglect. As a
result the theatres are nightly crowded TO
the doors, and that which started as an ex-
pertinent has blossomed into an unmistak-
ahle success.
summer season Of light operas at popl.
lar prices, is to follow, and managers will
find that venture even more gratifying in
its result Away out West" in Chicago
and st. Louis, the heated term has for years
been characterized by seasons of light
operas, given in summer gardens by the
best artists at reasonable prices.
The result has been a mint of money to
the managers, mine of pleasure TO the
people, and an education that Is lasting
and profitable, The character of the pop.
ulation Of Washington makes such u ven.
tuTe here absolutely certain of beneficial
results.

New Faces and New Friends.

One great advantage accruing TO Wash
ington from change of Administration
consists in the number of new people whom
IL has brought to the National Capital.
many Of them for the rst time in their
lives.
During the last twenty years nearly
everybody in the Republican party of any
political or social consequence has made
frequent pilgrimages hither and become
more or less familiar with the peculiar
characteristics and attractive features of
the city-with its sights and scenes, its old
and now associations, the manners and Gus
toms of its inhabitants.
Half tho country, speaking in general
terms, has yet to see and enjoy all these
things. But they are coming now in force
and will continue to come right straight
along. 1t matters little in what shape they
come, whether as holders of Offices or seek
ers after offices or merely lookers-on and
casual sojourners,
They all see something to ADMIRE learn
something they never knew before and soon
satisfy themselves that Washington is in
deed Capital worthy of great country
and proud possession to the people.
OF the tens OF thousands of strangers who
have been here since the 1st of January
last, it is safe to say that not a single ona
has gone away without impressions of won.
der and delight; or still remains without
having those impressions growing upon him
day by day. Very many of these visitors
are persons of influence and position whose
good opinions are worth having.
Washington was never so well known to
the country at large as it is now; nor
known to be praised so high. The result
will be large accession to our population
and wealth Of those who have made the
pleasing discovery that the Capital of the
United States is not merely distributing
centre of official patronage or a vast aggre-
cation of political machinery, but city of
refinement and culture, of the best educa-
tional and social advantages of raro archi-
tectural beauty, of unsurpassed climate,
of picturesque surroundings and of enlight-
ened progress--a city, in short, which men
of leisure, men of learning, men of am
bition, would most chose to live in.

Somebody wants TO annex Cuba at u cash
price of $100,000000. Many capitalists are
said to be fascinated with the proposition,
but the Lord only knows what they waut
with the island The argument presented
in favor of annexation is an alleged re.
duction in the price of sugar and coffee and
the chance for private Investment in tho
establishment of winter resorts. But the
argument doesn't hold water.
If ono Claus Sprecllels can control and
monopolize the sugar trade aud transpor.
tation of the Sandwich Islands and the Pa
cifc coast, how many Claus Spreckels
would be required to monopolze the sugar
and coffee trade of Cuba and thereby ruin
the sugar trade of the Southern States? If
over-rich capitalists in New York want a
huwer-garden or coffee.beanery at their
own expense, we presume there Is no law
preventing them from purchasing Cuba at
private expense. But Congress don't want
the island.
The people of the United States are not
searching for territory that isn't owned by
Indians. Cuba isn't worth the price Of a
standing army, constant quarantine
against cholera and yellow fever aud tho
chances of a sugar monopoly greater than
anything Mr. Spreckels ever dreamed of.
