THE Farm journal says that neat,
ness has a market value, as is easily
seen when it adds a CEN a box to the
price of berries, 10 cents a barrel to
apples, half a dime a bushel to potatoes,
. cents a pound to butter, or 3 cents a
dozen to eggs, and a perceptible per-
centage to any product offered for sale.
ONE of the suggestions made by a
report of the Kansas Board Of Agri.
culture for guarding against ravages
from the Hessian fly is that the land be
pastured with sheep. The consequent
close cropping of the wheat in Noyem-
Der and early December may cause
many of the eggs, Larvae and haxseed to
be destroyed.
THIS is how, it is said, the Germans
get rid of rats: A mixture OF two parts
of ~well-bruised common squills and
three parts of finely chopped bacon is
made into a stiff mass, with as much
meal as may be required, and then
baked into small cakes, which are put
down for the rats to eat. 1t proves an
eXterminator.

Fire This Morning.

Shortly after half-past l O'Clock this
morning an alarm of fire was rung, for
what proved to be small blaze in rear
OF the new buildings now in course of
erection for Chief Justice Judd, on Fort
street A small shed had been erected
there, in which was stored several bar
rels of lime. The rain, it is supposed,
Stacked the lime and started a fire,
which communicated to the shed and a
fence adjoining VIM. @. Irwin 4 Co. s
building A native first discovered the
fire and ran over 10 the "Daily Herald"
office and gave the alarm. Mr.. Dan
Logan, the editor, Immediately rushed
out to the scene of the fire, and with the
assistance of two others and a small
hose succeeded after considerable diff
Guilty in subduing the flames and saving
the shed and fence from destruction.
The alarm was not rung for several min
utes after the fire had been discovered.
Pacific Hose Company No. l was the
first on the spot, and Foreman Monsar-
rat getting his men quickly to work all
danger of the fire spreading was at an
end. This seems to be a most unfortun-
ate spot for fire, as within short space
of time the department has been called
there three times. A length of hose, in
charge of firemen, was left in case the
fire should burst out again. 1t appears
to be Il gross piece of carelessness in
leaving twenty or thirty barrels OF lime
in shed, the roof of which permitted
rain to get through.
The two persons who assisted Mr..
Logan to put out the fire were Hezekiah
Aea, a compositor at the 'Bulletin''
office, and Daniel Travis, a tailor.

trial as a civilized and Christian com

the conclusion OF the paper sew

His Honor, in reply to one Of which he
expressed the opinion that opium had

native Hawaiians, and it would be far
worse when the new law comes into eff

thanked the Lord that We are not going

sidered it undesirable to leave the native

tive Hawaiians There should be more
supervision by persons of our own race.
This is recognized by the Roman Catho-
lies. He did not know OF a single in

amount of success with the native
teachers, but they look for advice. The

An Amazing Statement.

a statement was publicly reiterated by
the Rev. Mr. Cruzan at the Fort-street
Church last evening, at which the Rev.
gentleman expressed himself amazed.
1t emanated from man holding high
position, whose word he felt bound to
believe, and was to the effect that scores
of children in certain Government
school were already debauched by
opium, a result which had been brought
about by the influence of the Chinese.
He had no reason to believe that that
school was an execution.

E,resens Condition of the Hawai.a,s..

Present. Condition of the HawaiIasaS.
The monthly meeting of the Fort
street Church was held last evening, and
in addition to the customary concert of
prayer and praise, Mrs. Merritt read the
report from the annual meeting of the
American Board of Commissioners of For
eign Missions, held at Des Moines last
month. An interesting and highly in
telligent paper was also read by Chief
Justice Judd, in which His Honor dealt
with ''the present condition of the Ha-
waiian," from a moral and religious
point of view. He began by saying that
from the prominence which the news
papers had given to his intention it
might be expected that he would handle
the subject very extensively; but this
was not the design of the paper
he was about to read, which would
be very brief. His Honor tersely
acteristics of the native Hawaiian
Christian, who was essentially non
skeptical, had no difficulty whatever in
believing the miracles of Scripture, and
took not the slightest interest in Renan,
Strauss or Herbert Spencer. The writer
had never heard of one who was an
avowed atheist or infdel. Though fond
of discussion, the general aim was not
to gain light, but to get temporary
victory over an adversary. Sunday

rage among them, and the industries of
whole districts are sometimes compelled
to stand still while these are going on.
The Sunday schools should, however, be
conducted under stricter supervision.
An instance was related in which Su-
perintendent had distributed gin at cleo
ton time to members and was
yet suffered to retain his position.
The native Christians greatly need to
be taught the value of consistency and
Large sums of money are voted among
them for church purposes, and statistics
were quoted. They are very deficient i'll
discipline, and some of the native pas
tors who have endeavored to enforce it
have met with boycotting so thorough
that they had to desist. There exists
among them a strong aversion to in
curing enmity for principles sake.
They are characterized by hospitality
and a readiness to forgive, but have little
of that spirit inculcated by the Master
when he drove the money changers out
of the temple. The most hardened
criminal on coming out of Jail is received
by his friends, and His Honor had even
seen a high Government official
walking on terms of evident familiarity
with man who had but recently been
convicted of embezzlement. They are
such an impressionable people that they
would be very easily led back to idola-
try were the example set by their rulers.
Though there are many sincere Christ
ians among them, as a rule they lack
moral courage. a great source of diff
