Story of BLACK. the Novelist.

Charles GibbOn is an author widely and
well known throughout England, in fact,
successful novelist Several years ago, no
matter Just how many, Black and Gibbon
were, it might be said, side by side In the
commencement of their literary careers, and
were then, as now, warm personal friends.
Both had made name, and GibbOn had
contracted with a certain syndicate to furnish
a novel of some twenty or twenty five chap
ters He needed the money, too, presume,
which the novel would net him, but I'M
fortunately he fell seriously i'll and was una
BILE to do any work at all. As soon as Black
heard of the misfortune of his friend Gibbon
he at once hurried to his bedside, and IN spite
of Gibbons vigorous protest Black insisted
that he should be furnished the scheme of the
novel, which it seems Gibbon had already
outlined.
The generous Black would listen 70 no ar
gument or excuse, but marched off in trl-
urnph with the skeleton novel, and although
he had on hand more work than he could
we'll attend to, he went 30 work on that skel-
eton and in a short time returned to GlbbOn a
complete novel and to this day no ono out
side of a small circle knows Of Blacks kind
hearted action Gibbon is a warm personal
friend of mine and has often told me the
story. Black is very happy in his domestic
life. I suppose, of course, you know that the
novel. The Strange Adventures OF
Phaton," is really an account OF Blacki

AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION NEEDED
The Mistaken Principle Which Underlies
Our Present System of Charity.

The Mistaken Principle Which Underlies
Our Present System of Charity.
All our public institutions, such as hospitals
asyluns, and even prisons are curative and
not preventive Does not the proverb about
an ounce of prevention apply with as much
force to them as TO Individuals Let a
hunted, bounded, starving, debilitated man,
who needs rest and nOurishment to build him
I'D. apply to any hospital for relief VIII he
get it! "Oh, no." viii be the answer; ego and
get worse. Go on till you break down, and
then when you have shattered your cOnstitu-
ton and contracted a lingering disease, then
come to us and we will help you"
The poor fellow goes off and walks and
starves till he drops in a fit. Then there IS
the ambulance for him, nurses, doctors, soft
beds, chicken broth, port wine and everything
TO COddle and build him up.
The same is the case with the man who is
afflicted with mental trouble. He may feel
that his overweight brain is drifting into
insanity, but let him apply to any asylum, or
even to friends, for the relief ne needs.
"Oh, no." is the reply, you are not insane
vet; go and qualify yourself" and he does,
becoming possibly life burden on the state.
We have heard a story, which was no
doubt, true, of virtuous girl who, finding
herself in sore straits, applied to a certain
Magdalen asylum for protection.
Have you sinned." she was asked.
Never" was her reply.
"Ah, then, we can give you no assistance
our institution is for the erring only. Go
and qualify yourself and we will receive you
with open arms"
Can there be a more hideOus commentary
on the faIlacy of the principle underlying our
whole present system of charity'-Texa'

More Opium .
per pound

Yesterday afternoon Officers Hopkins
and Kauhane were searching the Chi
nese wash houses on King street for
Chun Hook, the escaped prisoner. They
did not find him, but instead came
across a Chinaman enjoying a quiet
opium smoke. They arrested him with
the paraphernaIia and were starting for
the Station House, when a Chinaman
ran quickly out of another house with a
tin in his hand. Hopkins followed him,
and the Chinaman getting scared, ran
among the clothes, where he Was dis
covered hiding the tin in box OF
clothes. Hopkins opened the tin and
found it contained between twenty and
thirty nut shells full Of opium all ready
for sale. The two men will have their
trial this morning in the Police Court

Chum Hook.

There is no doubt that Chun Hook IS
hiding somewhere near the Hebron
premises, Nuuanu Valley, as Yesterday
afternoon his hat and shirt were found
there by a son OF Mr.. Chas. B. Wilson,
Superintendent Of the Water Works. 4
Chinaman who lives near the old Ice
Works says ne saw Chun Hook about 9
O'Clock Wednesday evening very near
his house, and that he still had on the

The Highest Iceberg Ever Measured.

The highest measured iceberg Of which We
know was one seen by DR.. I. I. Hayes, on the
west Greenland coast, being $50 feet above

about a half a mile; a great chunk Of ice,
plenty big enough TO pay the national debt
of then &. 900, 10000 at the cheapest whole

icebergs are quite numerous about the upper
Greenland coasts too, Scoresby recording 800

Hayes counting as many from the masthead
and then giving up in sheer despair, for
others faded away in the distance in such
inextricable confusion as To defy comPuta-
