The students at University ofTexas
are always playing some game on
the professors. Old Prof. Gasaway
is generally selected as the target.
About 8 O'Clock in the morning one
night last week he was disturbed by
the ringing of his door-bell. Hastily
enveloping his figure in a dressing
gown he threw open a window and
sticking out his head asked what was
the cause of the disturbance. "The
burglars are bad, and we only wanted
TO tell you that one of your windows
is OPEN" (which one?" he asked
anxiously. "The one you have got
your head stuck out of, Professor
replied the students in chorus.

Hemp.

The culture of hemp suffers from the
competition of substit ties. From a.
900 tons grown in 1889 our annual
product has fallen to 5000 ions in
1884. Foryign jute has almost entiirly
dri.en out American hemp from the
manufacture OF cotton bagg ng. The
cause for this is thu enormous dlspar-
ity between the cost OF labor here and
in Asia, where jute is grown and pre-
pared. and it does not seem probable
that the transfer of the industry from
America to Asia can be arrested until
some suitable machinery for preparing
home grown fiber at q less cost than
that Of the foreign grown stalk shall
DO brought into use. -RTchdags.

The Mystery Solved.
Mr.. Daggett's Mission to
Washington, and
it's Failure
TRUSTWORTHY ALTHOUGH NOT " Bl
AUTHORITY"

A letter from Washington has
been shown to us, which reveals the
burden of the mission Of Mr.. Dag
gett, ex-Minister Resident Of the
United States in Hawaii, from the
Government of this kingdom to the
United States Government, at tho
close of his term here. The COM
mission entrusted to Mr.. Dsggett
was simply in relation to an old
claim of this Government against
the American Government. At the
date of the letter referred to, Mr..
Daggett had left Washington for
San Francisco, having been authori-
tatively advised to abandon his
mission. From the extraordinary
course pursued by the Hawaiian
Government-that of sending a re-
called foreign minister on a
delicate embassy to the Government
recalling him-this kingdom there
fore secures the not unusual privi-
lege of paying, dearly no doubt, for
an entirely unnecessary and, as it
proves, useless diplomatic mission.
1t is to be hoped the facts of the
case will be as extensively circu-
lated through the great journals of
England, America and Australasia,
as the first sensational report of Mr.
Daggett having been commissioned to
treat for the sale of the Islands to
the Washington Government.

was to take zap, but, on arriving,
that was not formally done. The
German vessel was little sharper,
hoisting her flag denoting sover-
eighty before the Spaniard, thus
taking possession first, which, when
the Spanish vessel saw, she made
the best of it, and backed out, leav-
ing Germany master of the field.
Somewhere in the European Ceun-
ellis, Germany having said she meant
to take the Carolines, Spain replied,
she held them by the priority of dis.
covery. Germany replied she had no
respect for such ownership, possess
ion was the NY true way of hold
ing them. Imm,d ately she sent
out her war vessel to tals the islands,
if not possessed by any other power,
and she has possessed them. This
is little hard for the natives, but
the feeble must succumb to the
stronger. 1t would have been futile
for us to have protested. The only
way was to make it as plain to the
natives first as possible. We did
this, and then advised them to SUBJ
init to the inevitable. 1t came hard
for them, but they did it with no
show of refusal, though 1 know some
of the Kings disliked it very much.
No doubt in the end it will be the
best thing for the people. And I
am inclined to think that it will not
be many years before a German
Colony will be along, mainly to cul-
tivate the land. And this may call
for some changes in our missionary
work. But we shall borrow no
trouble till it comes. I have given
you a hasty account of the events of
these days. Men of ideas are the
men to rule. May it all rebound to
the glory of God and the extension
of Christ's Kingdom. 1 have just
made visit around the island, and
found much to encourage and much
to weep over. 1 purpose to do a
large amount of work in visiting,
this year. The girls school is NOV
ing on admirably. The little pupils,
by sewing, have donated, last year,
$500. This is we'll done for these
daughters so recently in dark hea-
then homes.

iOHolulu Otcalh lanlnS Mill, ColIecl'
1 would call attention to this from
the fact that Mr.. Lucas's whistle is
blown daily at - O'Clock from
signal by electric bell communicated
directly from the Survey Office. At
this office the correct time is known
to o second. 1t would seem as if
some arrangement might be made
by which the public could have the
advantage of this correctness of the
steam whistle which is secured by
the private enterprise of the Homo
lulu Steam Planning Mill. AS it is,
the confusion of the different steam
signals makes it impossible for the
ordinary citizen to know which is
the right one, while really signal
of that kind is practically the most
convenient standard for the general
public that can be devised. Occa-
sionally, it is true, the wires may be
temporarily dcranged like the tele-
phone wires; but it is only excep-
tional that is so, while there have
often been whole months without a
single failure of the whistle to blow
on time. G. j. LYONS.

The CAROLINE ISLANDS.
WHAT ONE OF THE MISSIONARIES SAYS.

Following is letter addressed to
the Secretary of the Hawaiian Board
of Missions, and received by last
mail from Queensland. 1t will be
read with no little interest, after all
that has already been published
relative to the Caroline Islands dis
pute, and the reference of the ques-
ton by Prince Bismarck to the
Pope's mediation
PoNAPE, Oct. 10th, 1885.
DEAR BROTHER PLEASE excuse
hasty note. You will want to hear
the news. Germany, in the person
of Captain Puddeman, commanding
the war vessel Albatross, is now in
port, and has just taken Ponape.
The imperial flag has been raised
ashore, fifty marines assisting. A
treaty was made with all the Kings,
five of them, to surrender, so far as
each one could, his rights to Ponape.
Emperor William takes full possess
ion. The ostensible reason offered
is to protect German Commerce.
But this protection of German inter-
ests will also include all native and
foreign rights. Lands held by any
foreigner will be secured to him; so
will all of our mission interests,
lands, schools, teaching, preaching
and churches. These are the gem
eraI terms of the treaty. No doubt
in time some official will be appoint
ed to work up laws, put the land in
severalty to the people, and set
them to tax paying which will in
clude not little work for and by
them. But Ponape is not alone
taken. So are the Pelew Island,
zap, Udeai and Ruk. The vessel
leaves here for Kusaie in a day or
two, when that will be taken. Then
will have been taken the whole of
the Caroline Islands. The vessel
did not call at the Mortlocks, be-
cause of a gale, but she is to return
to take possession there. While the
vessel was at zap, she found there
a Spanish vessel from Manila. with
