Arrival of Portuguese Immigrants.

The British ship Amana, Captain
Beckett commander, s'riyed from
liverpool ria Madeira and Coquimbo,
yesterday afternoon She sailed from
liverpool April 9th, and arrived at
Madeira April goth, when she took
aboard 500 emigrants including men,
women and children. She remained
at Madeira until April Goth, when she
Proceeded on her voyage around the
Horn Heavy gales and cold weather
were experienced when rounding Cape
Horn, compelling the emigrants to re-
main below for days at time, After
the severe weather experienced, the
Captain decided to put into Coquimbo,
Chill, to replenish his water and pro
vision supplies. After remaining two
days at Coquimbo, she continued her
voyage, arriving here without further
event. The voyage from Madeira to
Coquimbo was made in I43 days, and
from the latter place to Honolulu in AZ
days. -Four deaths (all children) and
eleven births occurred on the passage,
The Amana is fine iron vessel, and
looks comparatively clean considering
the long passage just completed.

Tho Honolulu Iron Works.

II one wants to know what the hum
of busy industry means, he should visit
the Honolulu Iron Works, although
hum is feeble word to describe the
metallic ring and rattle and roar of such
an establishment, A HERALD reporter
strolling near the works yesterday
afternoon accosted the manager, Mr..
Young, witha qucryregardingthe amount
of work now on his hands. In reply
that gentleman said they had large
amount of work in hand, and then he
led the reporter through the various
departments and showed him what
was being done. In the machine shop
on the left of the entrance from Queen
street. stood a graceful looking struc-
ture composed of pillars and arches
supporting a scaffold, this being the
framework Of sugar mill double effect,

boiler of the same material to go with
the double effect to Halawa. There
was also marine boiler contemplated
for the steamer c. r. Bishop. In the
blacksmith shop every fire was filled,
and there rose an incessant clangor
from the anvils. Besides the regular
new work, repairs are coming into the
works daily. The hours of work are
extended into the night, SO that all
patrons may have their orders exc
cuted when wanted. All the rushing
of work on sugar machinery indicates
anything but an early decline in plant

men, and the pay roll foots up ovel

tradesmen of the city. The benefit o
having such an extensive industry
established here is therefore apparen
at a glance, indicating that it is for thu
general interest to have all the coun

try. If home manufactures were more
sedulously encouraged, probably there
would be less frequent occasion for The
complaint of dull times.

Portuguese Beggars.

A lady was driving on one Of the
principal streets yesterday, with little
child in the carriage, when the horse
SHE'D at the well-known Portuguese
beggar in his wheelbarow, being trun
died diagonally across the street 10
front To prevent the horse running
away, the lady placed the child in the
bottom of the carriage, securing it with
her foot on its clothes, and held the
reins firmly with both hands. Our in
formant thinks, and his opinion will be
generally shared, that it is time that the
uncouth object in question was pre-
vented from going about soaring horses.
1t is said he has amassed good pile
of money in his perambulations and
ought to be sent home to his own
country. Complaint was also made to
our reporter yesterday, that Portu
guese woman piled the business Of a
mendicant about town, to the annoy
ance of housekeepers. This woman
is quite aged and apparently is suffer
ing from some horrible disease, as her
face and hands are covered with sores,
and generally is frightful object to
behold. Begging is new to this coun-
try, being the most disagreeable corol-
larry of Portuguese immigration. 1t is
suggested that the present would be
good time for the authorities to impart
a salutary lesson to people of that
nationality, when an addition of half
thousand has just been made TO their
numbers.

Nothing exhilarates the mind and the
body like morphine. Liquor thickens
the utterance and stupeties the brain.
Morphine, on the contrary, frees the
tongue, and makes its accents as dis
tinct as the notes of a we'll played
banjo. 1t makes the brain bright but
insouciant. A veteran morphine taker is
proof against all other stimulants.
Whisky and brandy do not intoxicate
him. He defies all drunkenness except
the intoxication produced by the drug.
His muscles gradually become filled with
the poison. Frequently pins and
needle, can be thrust into his flesh
without producing pain. When
thoroughly saturated with morphine the
victim either dies or attains AN extra
ordinary size. No matter how thin he
may be, he begins 10 grow fat, and in
some cases is said to die of suffocation.
The mind is usually shattered in adj

"Animal Spirits"

The fox terrier is always reader for a
walk than his master, and generally en-
joys himself more thoroughly on the
way. His natural gait is swifter than
mans, and all animals of whom that can
be said have a great advantage in the
amount of pleasure which they derive,
or ought to derive, from the use of their
limbs. The glory of rapid motion
which we can only begin to realize on
the boxseat of a coach, or in the move
ment of skating, must be something
much more intense to the channels or
the white headed eagle. Constantly,
throughout the animal world, we notice
that delight in the use of muscle and
limb which in man scarcely survives his
majority, but which in them lasts far
into maturity. We are accustomed I'M
consciously to recognize their preroga-
tive in this respect when we apply the
phrase animal spirits" to boy who is
full of life and engery, and who enjoys
a run over the hills ON breezy day. =

THE LATEST JOURNALISTIC IDEA.
Putting Pictures in the Newspaper
Difficulties To BE Overcome.

Difficulties To BE Overcome.
The latest modern idea is illustrated in
journalism. l was connected from the
start with the first illustrated daily in
the United States; and saw that the
difficulty in the way of success was the
effort to pour the old wine of politics
and the police court into the new picture
bottles. They could not stand it. 1t
took the pencil of Hogarth to make the
rum-shop interesting, and even he could
not make it so to-day. Dogs, prize
fights, police news, are bad enough in
type, but how much worse, spread over
whole pages in a coarse pictured Had
the editors set aside their traditions; had
they been trained to a knowledge of the
requirements of the new field had they
cultivated the picturesque the emotional,
the romantic, and the social in other;
words, presented the inner" side or sub
jective transfer of life; made bright,
beautiful family paper, that every man
would have wanted to carry home with
him. the story Of the first ten years of
the first illustrated daily paper would
have been different.
The second great difficulty was of q
mechanical character. No good picture
can be produced upon the turtle" that
Is the rounded press. If the photographic
stone is ever rounded, so that pictures
can be printed directly from it instead
of the printing press, it will cause a
revolution in the newspaper. 1t would
abolish the compositor. and bring the
artist and scribe into direct relations
with the reader. The London Graphic
and Illustrated News are a prophecy OF
what our daily papers may be, if the
photographic stone becomes a WELL
rounded fact.
1t is said that process has been in
vented, and is now being developed, by
which pictures in color, as we'll as in
black and white, can be printed without
the intervention of the stone. If this is
true, the day is not distant when we
shall have the beautiful and picturesque
journal, one that will arouse the SYM
pathies, stimulate the Imagination, and
satisfy the taste; as yet, they are little
more than sensation mongers. or tails to
some ambitious politicians kite. The
exceptional facts, that is, the crime and
the scandal, will be releg tied to a corner
and put in small close type; the discov-
cry, its relation To existing circumstances
and conditions, the noble act, the great
piece of work will, it is to be hoped, he
put i'll colors and occupy the places of
honor. Jennie June.

Why the "TortIes" Were Crippled.

A scientist, discourisng on snakes,
said: Il am told that out in Kansas
there are snakes that catch hold of the
legs of land turtles, or 'tortles, as they
call them here. A snake will swallow
the hind leg of the 'tortle,' and, of
course, cannot swallow any more. Then
the 'tortle' goes tramping about with the
snake attached to his leg, and using the
snake pretty roughly. The snake. can
not let go, for its teeth, which are turned
back or inward, are locked fast. 1t
keeps its hold until the leg becomes SO
decomposed that it drops Off That fact
accounts for the great number of lame
'tortles' found in that country. Chicago

Another Story of Ludwig.

One of the best of the numerous anec-
dotes of the late king of Bavaria is re-
lated by a Munich artist He was at
work one day on some statuettes which
the king had ordered for a new park
when the royal botanist entered his
atelier and tried to explain to him the
plan of the new grounds. The matter
was somewhat complicated, and the
artist did not quite understand some of
the details, when the botanist suddenly
unbuttoned his coat and showed the
astonished sculptor the whole plan
drawn on his vest. He then explained
that he had just been to see the king,
who, to make things perfectly clear, had
taken piece of charcoal and painted
the outlines Vt the park on his white
vest, $50 that you may not forget it, " the
king had added, laughing. Chicago

The most important lesson to be
learned by the public in reference to ty-
phoid fever is that it is filth disease
not sometimes, not generally, but al
ways. And perhaps the next IN impur-
lance is that while the production Of the
disease probably requires that the NOR
bitic agent shall be brought into contact
with the alimentary mucous membrane,
as in food or drink, it is possible for the
salivary fluids in the mouth and throat
to absorb the poison from the atmosphere
and thus become the medium of its
transmission to the stomach. There is
also third lesson OF no less value to us,
viz: That various articles of food, and
especially milk, water and other fluid
food, possess the same property of alb
sorbing the fever poison from the atmos-
phere and thus becoming the vehicles of
its introduction into the system.
My own observations are fully in keep
ing with the view that the absorption of
the poisonous emanations by the sail
vary secretions, and by food stored in
pantries and kitchens, but especially the
latter, furnishes the explanation of
nearly all the so called sporadic" cases
of true typhoid fever occurring in this
city. In large proportion of cases il
will be discovered on examination that
odorOus emanations from kitchen drains,
but more frequently from privy vaults
are easily perceptible to the senses in the
rooms where food is stored and where it
is being prepared for the table. In most
of the observations have made on this
subject, it has appeared to be the privy
vault rather than the drain that has been
responsible for the evil.-Annals of Hy-
giene.

A Medallion of the Queen.

Mr.. Boehm, r. A, was summoned re-
Gently by Queen Victoria to Windsor to
take medallion portrait of her majesty
for the new gold, silver and bronze coin
age to be issued during the jubilee
year, 1887. Mr.. Boehm has executed
many etfigies of her majesty and other
members of the royal family. The queen
gave the artist several sittings, which
is an innovation in the matter of design
ing head from which to make a ma
srix for coinage. The features of her
majesty are to be reproduced with mi
croscopic fidelity. The image of her
majesty impressed on the coin of the
realm hitherto has been the one taken in
1887, the wear of her accession to the
throne. The Argonaut.
