Some Peculiaritfe. of the Hetress.

An heiress is a humorous Object-she is
such a mixture of conventional with natu-
raj and necessary attributes. She is
made up of stocks, smiles, tears, mining
property, bushes, real estate, a complex
ion, and dark hair or blonde, as the case
may be. When she falls in love she is ex-
tremely interesting. 1t is affecting to see
the hopes and fears of that passion rising
in her heart in complete independence of
those weighty matters which control men
in great cities. The man honored with
her affection feels that it is very
good of her. But some heiresses are very
rude. Diana D., Boston girl, with a
million or two, clever and learned, they
say, and handsome as well, plainly regards
herself as something very desirable, and
considers men proper objects of suspicion.
She takes solitary morning walks, keeping
her veil down. If you meet her and re
gard her with natural and proper curio-
sity, she returns your glance with an ex-
preston of countenance like that of the
ladies of COnstantinOple, who exclaim on
meeting an intidel-particularly if some
of the male faithful happen to be in sight

at me!n-The ArgOnaut.

A Fresh Pup for Every Pair.

The most pronounced change of fashion
in clothing is in the breed of dog now
worn by those who are correctly dressed.
The latest thing is a crushed pumpkin-pie-
cOlored terrier, in tints to match the
groundwork of the trousers. No chappie
who has any self respect will be caught
without kennel the resources of which
will permit him to have a fresh pup for
every pair of trousers. The effect of this
is highly and hilariously artistic. 1t may
properly be termed symphony in pants
and pup.
The live stock is dashed to the slim by
means of chain of hammered gold, for
which the latter still owes. None but
highly moral dogs, who have abjured
fights, and to whom the sight of a stray
cat has no inflammatOry effect, are used,
for otherwise the Sims thumb might be
dragged out by the roots. The latter
carries cane with natural buck-horn or
carved ivory handle, with which to club
the dog should the lattar's sense of self
respect incite him to mutiny and rage at
being compelled to associate with the slim
Inter Ocean.

The Characteristics of ..Norweeium."

The name of Norwegian" has been
given to the interesting new metal dIscOv-
cred by Dahl some time ago, while he was
examining specimen of nickel ore from
Kragero in Norway. This addition to
the now rapidly growing list of elements
is malleable metal of white color, with a
tint of brown, and presents when pure, a
metallic luster, but on exposure to the at
mOsphere becomes Goa, ed with thin film
of oxide; its hardness is about that of cop
per, its specific gravity is nearly 81, and
it melts at $50 degrees centigrade. From
its physical properties and chemical reac-
ton it appears so to differ from ever other
known metal as to give it distinct indi-

facilitates the extension Of material
wealth through the hand OF toll. Be this
as it may, it is quite certain that min
eral wealth may represent the products
OF toll, but cannot produce even the ne
cessities Of life. Nations can be said,
therefore, to be divided into two general
classes, which may be called producers
of wealth and consumers Of wealth.
The relations which spring from this
social condition form union OF interests
between communities and States.
The development of every nation IS
dependent upon reciprocal community
interests. Hawaii is not an exception to
the general rule, although both our po-
liticai and social relations may be
termed unique The natural resources
OF this Kingdom are primarily agricult-
ural, and our material comfort and ma
tional prosperity naturally depend
largely upon their judicious develop
ment. The people OF Honolulu are
therefore directly interested in the rural
culture OF Hawaii Not only the mer-
chants, but the laboring classes Of this
city, are virtually interested as con
sumers of products, which are paid for
with mechanical representation of 50
much money. That the mechanical
classes OF a country are as much de-
pendent upon the products of the soil as
are those who till and reap, and that ex-
perience teaches us whatever works in
jury to the producers OF wealth works as
great injury to the mechanical and trade
industries of a country, are truisms
which apply to our Island Kingdom as
well as to other countries more closely
related to the great world of commerce.
Our isolated situation and consequent
state of interisland dependence makes
the commercial prosperity Of Honolulu
Immediately dependent on the prosperi-
ty of our neighboring islands; and the
opportunity of ready and available dis
tributing point makes Honolulu center
of interest to all the agricultural COM
munities of the Kingdom. The value of
taxable property throughout the Ha-
waiian Islands, as in all other countries,
is relative, and consequently the value
and extension OF our property is depend
ent upon the direct market furnished at
or through Honolulu.
1t is, therefore, important that the re-
ciprocal relations existing between this
city as a commercial center and the
agricultural communities of the other
islands should be guarded by our mer-
chants and mechanics, as well as by
all the trade industries dependent upon
capital and rural development, which
create and nourish our general pros
perity through a union Of interests pecu-
liar to our Island Kingdom. We must,
in other words, bury the shortsighted
commercial methods of the past, which
have been at best commercial subter-
fuges applied to private ends, and turn
our attention to practical solutions OF
questions of interisland trade and the
immediate development of our agricultu-
raj interests in order to increase both
our home and foreign commerce.

Sank a palace in the sea,
When my ship went down;
Friends whose hearts were gold to me-
Gifts that ne'er again can be
Meath the waters brown.
There you lie, o Ship, to-day,
In the sand-b bar stiff and gray
You who proudly sailed away
From the splendid town
Now the oceans bitter cup
Meets your trembling lip;
Now your gilded halls look up
From Disasters grip.
Ruins nets around you weave;
But have no time TO grieYe;
will promptly, believe,
Build another ship.

They also claim that a number OF youths

To.dsy's Convention.

The gathering of representative body
of Catholic citizens in Lancaster, such as
that now convened here in the sessions of
the Irish Catholic Benevolent Union, is an
event of no little local significance. Many
states are represented in the assemblage,
and the objects for which thee delegates
are gathered together are in all respects
praiseworthy. These objects are mainly
the study of benevolence, and how the
charitable beneficial objects of the several
associations that make up the union, can
best be broadened and improved. 1t is a
more worthy work in which the conveu-
tion engages, and its deliberations will
be read with marked interest hy all who
have kindly feeling for their fellow man.
In choosing Lancaster for the place of
annual convention, this city was highly
honored, and it is TO be hoped that the Wis.
iting delegates on their departure will
carry away good impressions of the beauty
of our town and the hospitality of our cit
liens.
