The Ioran Farewell concert.

4 large and fashionable audience was
present at the Hawaiian Opera House
last evening on the occasion OF the fare
well concert by the Misses Joran, Mile.
Aldini and Signor Lencioni. IL. K. H.
Princess Liliuokalani and His Excel
lency Governor Dominis occupied the
Royal box. 1t is long since lovers OF
music in Honolulu had an evening OF so
much exquisite enjoyment. The pro
gramme was we'll selected and did not
lack appreciation, if one may judge by
the amount OF applause extended to
each performer, and which in our opin-
ion was justly earned
The performance opened with con-
certo for two pianos, by the Misses Paul
inc and Elise Joran, with orchestra &C
compartment on a third piano by Miss
Lulu Joran and violin Obligato by Mr.. J.
w. Yarndley. The number was fault
lessly performed.
Mile. Leonora Aldini followed, and
made her first appearance before Hon
olulu audience Her number was an aria
and allegro from "Traviata" by Verdi. She
is gifted with u very good voice and sang
the music in a pleasing manner. On
being recalled she gave Sullivan's ut
Was a Dream" Her rendering of this
pretty song was delightful. The high
notes were very clear and her articula-
ton pleasing. Later on she sang
"Adieu to the Regiment" This last
number, and duet by Mile. Aldini and
Signor Lencioni, from the Daughter OF
the Regiment" were sung in honor OF
the u. A. r.
Miss Pauline Joran next played
violin solo, polonaise, by Wieniawski.
1t is hardly necessary to be very precise
in enumerating Miss Pauline Joran's
ability, since all who have heard this
youthful artistic, who is d great favorite
here, can well understand her success.
She was enthusiastically recalled and
played the Carnival of Venice"
Signor Lencioni was slightly hoarse,
but Notwithstanding this he delighted
and amused his audience with his
finished buffo singing.
Miss Lulu Joran played a rondo by
Chopin in brilliant manner. The most
difficult technique passages were accom-
plished with ease. The Grand piano
which she used on this occasion was in
good tune, and was decided improve
ment over the upright used at the former
concert.
In the second part Miss Elise JOran,
the child pianist, played two numbers, a
prelude and fugue by Bach, and an etude
by Chopin, with all the ability of an
artist. Her execution was wonderful.
The concert was brought to close with
a trio by the Misses Joran for two pianos
and violin. All OF the performers were
rewarded with numerous beautiful bou-
quets of flowers.
This talented party leave on the Mari
posa for the Colonies, and We feel
assured that their tour will be con-
tinued success. They have made many
warm friends during their stay here, who
part from them with regret. Bon voyage.

HUDSON, Wis.

The Dictionary of the English Language,
compiled by Rev. James Stormonth, and re-
printed in this country by the Harpers, pro-
poses to determine the correct pronunciation
of every word in its vocabulary. Most of us
will find, on glancing through it, that, in or
der to follow it, we viii be compelled to make
some radical changes in what we hitherto
deemed good English. For instance, it asserts
that trait" should be pronounced tray"
though the present American pronunciation
''trayt" is permissible. Mr.. StormOnth also
prefers ''ee-ther'' 20 'i-ther." The people who
are particular to sound 'ate,' the preterite of
''eat," precisely as it is spelled, viii find no
support in this dictionary. 1t is to be pro
nounced set" A preference is also given to
lunch" over luncheon a point that viii
dismay the Anglo-maniacs who are sometimes
more particular about that word than about
their morals. Baggage" as a synonym for
luggage" is given respectable rank. He also
permits mad" in the sense of enraged. He
justifies, too, the Americans use of the word
store" One of his definitions of it is; ANY
shop where a miscellaneous assortment of
goods is sold. But he does not sanction the
use of the word merchant when a retail
tradesman is meant

breathing at High Attitudes.

The Alpine Journal contains state
ment of the results obtained by DIR.
Marcel from many experiments on
breathing while climbing at high alti-
tudes. He first shows by experiments
at ordinary attitudes and in state Of
rest that some persons make much bet
ter use than Others of the air they in
hale, inasmuch as their exhalation is
very rich in carbonic acid; this may be
expressed by measuring the volume (at
sea-level pressure and freezing tempera-
ture) of air inhaled to produce one gram
weight Of carbonic acid. DIR. Marcet
himself had TO breathe 1916 liters of air,
while two younger men needed only
1871 and l0.S liters respectively; the lat
ter had remarkable power of keeping
his breath under water, and was little
troubled in mountain ascents.
Further experiments, conducted at
various attitudes up to 14,GO0 feet, show
that, as person ascends, he breathes Is
to 25 per cent. less air (reduced, as
above, TO standard pressure and temper
ature) TO produce a given weight of car
bonic acid; the action of air on the blood
in the lungs seems, therefore, to be ia
cilitated with decreasing destiny. 1t is
evident that this will materially diminish
the quickness of breathing that would
otherwise he required in rarefied air.

Some Queer Things That Have Msd'

Some Queer Things That Have Made
People Lose Their Voices.
wont you please ask that man to
stop smoking?" said a well-dressed
young woman to her escort as they
rolled down Broadway in one OF
Jacob Sharp's handsome rolling cars the
other night. There was nothing un-
usual in the request. In fact it voiced
the wishes of all the passengers who
were to leeward of the "two for )" weed
that protruded from the lips OF an
adopted citizen" on the front platform.
The popularity was the voice itself. 1t
was the most hoarsely tragic stage
whisper that ever delighted the patrons
of "the legitimate" The passengers, in
cluding the reporter, who was hanging
on to strap with the grasp with which
drowning man is popularity believed
to clutch the equally unsatisfactory
straw, gazed at her with astonishment.
She was robust and rosy, and when she
had entered the car a few moments be-
fore, her voice had rung out as strong
an clear as that of a country girl calling
across the fields for John to come and
bounce" tramp.
Her escort was as much puzzled as
the rest, and in the same blood-curdling
whisper that struggled through her
bright smiles like thunder burst across
the sunset skies, she explained that on
inhaling the slightest Whit of tobacco
e,,,nly. che laat hnr xvAtna 4 n,aHa
difference whether the weed grew in
Cuba or Connecticut, the effect was the
same. No kind of smoke other than
that of tobacco affected her in the least
While she was still telling these facts in
labored aspirates, the adopted citizen"
having returned the butt of his cigar to
its native element-the gutter-her voice
came back again, clear and bell-like as
before.
1t was a queer case of nervous de-
rangement, for the physical effect Of
such a slight inhalation Of the smoke
could not have taken on anything like
such an acute form. The reporters
memory ran back TO a parallel case on
that morning when the shipwrecked
passengers of the Oregon filed down the
gangway of the Fulda at her Hoboken
pier, attired in the most miscellaneous
collection of cloths, and answered his
questions in voices that resembled the
whistling of the wind through ragged
keyhole. 1t was the same effect from
the same general cause, though in that
case it was intense excitement of a
dozen hours passed at the threshold of
death that upset the nervous system
and temporarily banished the voices of
three fourths of the rescued passengers.
1T was an awful experience. I'd tell
you about it, but you sec I've lost my
voice." said brawny. bearded English
man in series of husky whistling syl-
lables, tapping his throat mournfully
with his finger.
~Yes, We were very near to death,

clergyman. whose pulpit oratory was
