against II. CHURCHILL & Co., of Brisbane,
Queensland. The case which has been in

out of an attempt of Churchill Il Company

Snakes and Birds.

OoSK0o ana Ble00.
A writer in the Scientific American
shows that birds are not always
charmed to their death when devoured
by snakes He says: 1--WE all know
that birds are not towards. I have
frequently seen two or three small
finches attack hawk or an eagle and
make his life burden to him, even
going so far as to perch on his back
and make him bald eagle, whether
that was his species or not. An
English sparrow will cheerfully under
take to thrash bird four times his
weight, and even the mild-mannered
dove will fight the intruder who enters
her cote, be he cat or man. A birds
confidence of fight makes her rash in
regard to snakes. She sees rattle
snake near her nest, and at first takes
wing; but on observing the lethargic
quality of her opponent, proceeds to
sit on convenient twig and scold.
Meanwhile the snake has lazily invaded
the nest. Having exhausted all the
harsh language she knows, and en-
boldened by the snakes sluggishness,
the bird comes Dearer, wings out
stretched and quivering, feathers
ruffled and beak open-afl symptoms
of anger, not fear. The snake slowly
gathers for spring, and remains per-
fectly still. Each moment of his in
action serve to make the bird more ag-
gressive and tempts her nearer. At
East the dead-liDe is reached, there is q
lightning-like Strengthening of the
hideous folds, and the poor little mis-
guided warrior feels the stab of those
dreadful needles whose touch is death.
If she had as much horse-sense as
pluck in her pretty pate, she would
have taken the matter philosophically
and gone off and laid more eggs, and
laid them in a high tree, instead of
staying for row. But ladies are the
same the world over. whether in
or not. One thing is certain
when q snake captures q bird, he does
it less by his own proves than b. the
natural foolishness of the bird, and he
certainly effects nothing by charm

The matter was confined to the re-
gion of talk, probably the carrying
into effect being found impracticablc
at the time. The extensive and
populous district in the direction of
WAIKIKI was the particular district
spoken of. No doubt, the idea is
sound, and hand engine with
little hose, placed in some central
position in that locality, might any
day be the means of cutting short
an incipient blaze, that would other
wise develop into destructive fire,
before the regular brigade could
possibly be on hand. 1t is now sug.
geSted that proposition of similar
nature has chance of better sue
cess If made to another suburb, on
the opposite side of the city--Pa-

with numerous population, mainly
composed of working men. Here is
the material for Il strong fire COM

A CARD.

The undersigned has not been in
the habit of foolishly or falsely
putting his goods, having been quite
content to rest upon the appreciation
of his patrons. The large and i'll
creasing patronage of the Elite Ice
Cream Parlors, together with the
growing demand for ice cream and
the wholesome and elegant cakes
made on the place, has been satis-
factory and sufficient answer to all
slurs.
The card in the BULLETIN of the
18th instant, wherein / am charged
by certain Mr.. Horn with making
false statements regarding some cake
of his manufacture, may, however,
require some answer and / hereby
desire to state to said Horn and to
the public, that | have made no
assertion or statement regarding his
goods, nor is it my intention or desire
so to do. "The proof of the pudding
is in'the eating" and the evidence re-
garding the respective qualities OF
the products of the Elite Ice Cream
Parlors and Of the said Horn, to the
date hereof, has been quite satisfac-
tory to me, and no doubt to an in
telligent and discriminating public.

CLIMATIC INFLUENCE .

The cquable climate of the Ha-
waiian Islands, to persons born and
raised under the often trowning
skies and boisterous elemental dis
turbances of higher ATTITUDES. would
seem to give assurance of immunity
to mankind from the many distem
pers which are supposed TO "blos-
som amid the SHOWS" 1t is quite n
common advice for medical men in
other lands to offer invalids, that
thev had better seek Il milder clim-
ate. But, strange to say, the
s'milder climate" of the Hawaiian
Islands boasts of ralgias, rhuma-
tisms, colds and chills as well as
that of northern Europe or the
prairie regions of America. The
inference is that maladies assumed
to be Indigenous to certain localities
are more likely due to constitutional
conditions, diet, modes of living
and moral habits. And while it is
perfectly correct to say that this is
one of the finest climates in the
world, it is absurd to hold it up be-
fore the inhabitants of other lands
as "cure ALL" To do so is simply
to invite "the sick, the lame, the
halt and the blind" to our shores.
The most that ought TO be said of
climatic influences on persons in
bad health is that they retard OF
assist nature in the exercise of her
inherent recuperative powers. To
persons whose disease have already
destroyed these recuperative powers,
Hawaii or any other country, in the
ominous words of the family physi-
clan, "can do nothing

PURE MALICE.
A HORSE AND CARRIAGE STOLEN.

On Monday evening one of tile
United Carriage Company's hacks
was standing in front of the main
entrance to the Hawaiian Hotel.
The driver left his seat for a moment
10 look after the person employing
him, who was witnessing the billiard
match between Morris and Nc
Clecry. Whilst his back was turned
some malicious hoodlum mounted
the drivers seat, drove the carriage
away, and was seen to proceed
down Richard street. Later on,
the carriage was seen on Queen
street, and it then contained one
male and two females, one of the
latter driving. The driver proper
was distracted and spent the best
part of the night looking for his
team. His search proved fruitlcss.
At an early hour yesterday morning,
a fellow driver of the same company
was passing along the Waikiki end
Of Merchant street. He there saw
the carriage and horse hitched to II
telephone post opposite the resi-
dencc of Mr.. w. Nj. Gibson. The
poor horse showed signs of fatigue,
more particularly from want of
water, caused, no doubt. by over,
work. The lamp and splash board
on the left side of the vehicle were
more or less damaged, and the whole
turnout suffered from the malicious
transaction. In that condition the
carriage was returned to its owner,
and to put it to rights it has cost
him quite little sum. The pur-
loiner of the carriage is known, and
to save further trouble he had better
own up like man, pay for the dam
ages, and nothing more will be said.
