"Dust and shadow" Is that all
Eternity may lend to time:
May not life to those who live
Some more cheering promise give
Whisper down at evening chime
Returning day when shadows fall'
sDust and shadow" Must we pass
As the breeze which sighs and sleeps
Dust rendered unto dust again
Shadows fitting DER the plain
From tho cloud above that sweeps
Between the sunshine and the grass!
.sDust and shadow Say not so,
Poet with the silver tongue!
Give us better hope than this,
Else are life and song amiss;
Else its brightest scenes among
Life is but our doaliest foe!
"Dust and shadow" Then the wise
Are as but the poorest fools;
If "a common endless grave
Hides the coward and the brave,
What avaiS the lore of schools:
What avails each high cmprisr'
"Dust and shadow" Nay, strive on;
From thy task hold not thy hand;
Do tho work there is to do:
To thvself and God be true,
While life's hour-S!aSs holds the sand,
Though night comes when day is gone!
"Dust and shadow Meat the wrong!
Be man! Stop not t. sigh
Brave in foremost rank of fight,
Care not that day turns to night
That the end of lifes to die;
Conquer death with purpose strong!
"Dust and shadow" Cowards die
When they yield their falterinS breath,
Conquered to return to Garth
Soulless even from their birth
Dying in their fear Of death.
But for manhood, deaths Eei
Dust and shadow is noS man;
Courage high can cross the grave;
Manhood's might though robbed OF orea
Overcomes and conquers death!
Eternity is for the brave,
Who foremost fight and lead the van.

There are many kinds of salads, and in
structioas for making them are as nu'
mcrous as offers of advice. Tastes vary
as to tic condiments to be used: but
there is one cardinal rule, which. if care
fully observed, will insure success. Do
not let the flavor of any one of the con-
dimcnts predominant over another. A
salad in which oil. vinegar, pepper and
salt arc uscd without quarrel can not
fail to be palatable and good.

CROPS IN THE SOUTH.
Extraordinarily Large Yield in
Cotton, Corn and Tobacco.
A Poor Wheat Crop in Minnesota
and Dakota

The Baltimore Manufacturers Record
publishes nearly five pages of special reports,
covering the whole South, from Virginia to
Texas, showing that the prospects for the
crops ard the outlook for business in the
South are remarkably good. Not only is the
acreage of the cotton, corn and tobacco
crops the largest on record, but the.
reports are almost unanimous in stat
ing that the yield of these crops, as we'll as
Of the smaller crops, excepting wheat,
will greatly exceed the best crops ever before
produced. 1t is also shown that the crops
have been made at O lower cost than in any
preceding year, and the liens on crops for
money advanced to the farmers is much less
than heretofore
Regarding corn, some reports say that the
yield will be the best for years; others best
for twenty years, and many the best ever
known. 1t is thought by the United States
commissioner Of agriculture. that the yield
will be not less than fifty million bushels more
than last year. The cotton crop it is Ee-
leved is safe for much the largest yield ever
made, and for at least 1,0O0, 900 to 500, 900
bales more than last year. OF tobacco,
fruits, and vegetables, the crops are the larg-
est ever made in the South, while rice prom
ises splendid yield, and sugar far more
satisfactory and profitable crop than in 1884.
Stimulated by the unprecedented crops,
business IS already showing decided improve
nlent, and the prospects throughout the South
for tall and winter trade are reported as un-
usually good

Important to Sugar Makers.

Mr.. Young, of the Honolulu Iron Works,
reports that at Waikea Mill last week there
was an average of 171s per cent. gain in
sugar by the use of the maceration process,
the first mill doing frst-class work. The
average 1ensity of the price at the first mill
was 1925 Q, at the second, SO. The gain
in sugar in the crop, estimated at 1, 100 tons,
will more than pay the cost of the additional
machinery for the maceration process.
The trash from the maceration mill after
being dried, will more than suffice for the
fuel needed to make steam for all purposes.

The Government Survey.

Professor w. D. Alexander, Surveyor
General Of the Kingdom, states that during
his recent visit to Molokai he established
base of verifcatiOn to connect the previous
triangulations with Maui. He had fine
weather for the work, and found that the
work previously done on Molokai connected
very we'll with the system of triangles car
ried around West Maui from the original
base line established on the peninsula be-
tween East and West Maui.
The network of triangles on Molokai is
finished as far as Kamaloo, beyond which
the work so far is preliminary. Professor
Alexander succeeded in getting over a
hundred observations of stars for the pur-
pose of fixing the longitude of the island
with exactness.
Mr.. NJ. D. Monsarratt will finish the de-
tails of the surveys.

Honolulu Athletic Association.

The adjourned annual meeting Second
adjournment of this association was held
yesterday afternoon at the Office of the
President, S. B. Dole, Esq, when, after
great exertion, quorum was secured. Ad
vantage was taken of the opportunity to re-
duce the necessary quorum for general
meetings of the associa ton to five, and also
to dispense with nine out of the fourteen
directors heretofore deemed necessary for
the management of the associations affairs.
IN consequence of the little use made at
present of the gymnasium for athletic exer-
cises, the directors were instructed to open
it on certain days only they might find
desirable, and to take steps to let the build
ing as frequently as possible. To defray
certain debts of the associa ton, the Trustee
was authorized to raise a sufficient sum on
mortgage of the gymnasium premises for
limited term. The election of officers fol-
lowed, with the following result: Presi-
dent, Mr.. S. b. Dole; Vice-Presidents,
Messrs. f. Wundenberg and J. F. Brown;
Secretary, Mr.. J. 3. Cas- tie; Treasurer, Mr..
G. Bolte. Under the amended rule, these gem
tlemen constitute the Board of Directors.
The proceedings terminated with vote
of thanks to the officers who had served
during the past year.
