A WELCOME ENTERPRISE.

The steam laundry being estab-
lished in Honolulu should be as wei
come new industry as any that can
be imagined. 1t will be the first
thing to prove to the Chinese that
they are not the absolute masters of
the situation which their cavalier
treatment of customers would indi-
cate that they are presuming to be.
If the steam laundry fulils its pro-
misses, doubtless many of the Mon
golian washers will have to close up.
Those that survive the competition
will probably be such as have given
unqualified satisfaction in their care
of the goods entrusted to them for
cleansing, in the quality of the
work performed and in their man
ners when dealing with patrons. To
have the number of Chinese billeted
on the community reduced, and re-
manning ones put on better behavior,
would be q sufficiently desirable re-
suit of an enterprise to secure for 1t
all required countenance and patron
age. The success of the steam
laundry may suggest other branches
of industry, in which the eXpendi-
ture of capital, pluck and energy
may rid the city of measure OF
dependence upon coolie labor. In
the meantime, people who are pro-
fessedly apprehensive of our civiliza-
tion being overwhelmed by the Mon
golian tide should act as if they
really had regard for civilized insti'
tutions, by dealing with those peo-
pies that support them and even at
q sacrifice, if necessary, dispensing
with the services of a race that,
notoriously, are not amenable, ex-
cept by the steady application of
force, to the social, moral and
sanitary laws of civilization.

Coke nor Blackstone ever had eX-
perience in holding the balances be-
tween conflicting Chinese testimony,
else the standards they left for the
lawyers of all time must needs have
been more elaborate if not more
lucid. The Hawaiian judiciary,
having to deal with this incOmpre-
hensible element, have often to be
more of Solomon than of SOlon.

A Sud Death.

Word was brought to Williamsport last
Friday by Mr.: Burge, Of Winchester, that the
young wife of Mr.. A. L: Raynolds had been acci-
lars of the sad affair." as we learned them, are as
follows Mr.. Reynolds dwelling house on his
claim and his store building on land purchased

habit of riding in a boat OH the creek. On the
day named Mr. Haynolds was absent for short
reached home he found a note which had been
left by his wife, as follows The name "Lnk" is
an abbreviaton Of Lincoln:

ers waded into the water. At length they came to
the body Of the young wife. She had probably
been riding In the boat and fallen out. At the
place where the body was found the water was
not over three feet deep.
49, The funeral took place Saturday at 2 o'clock.
The remains were followed to the tomb by
large number of sUrrowing friends. The grave
was made in the shadow Of neighboring butte
near the home where the young bride had passed
the few weeks of her happy married life and
where It is said she had told her husband she
wanted her body to lie when the Angel Of Death
should call her spirit home Little she thought
the summons would come so soon.
Mrs. Raynolds was but little over 16 years of
age. and had been married but about sin weeks
Expressions of coincidence with the stricken
husband avail not. Words of sympathy are but
hollow mockery to an almost broken heart.

Poultry Item.

This is the season of the year that the
egg campaign should be inaugurated.
The prudent farmer should now get
out his hens, dust them of, and start
them on the summers lay. He will also
say few kind words to them, and offer
chrome for the best average. The hen
that feels she is appreciated, that her abil-
tiles to hatch chicken out of porcelain
door. knob are recognized, will strive
much harder to please, and, instead of an
alleged search for the early worm in the
strawberry bed. she will be content to
pluck the outcast collar-button and the
rejected carpettack from the back yard
and return to the nest.
The hen should receive special care
when coming to sit. When retiring
from her usually robust life Of mining
for the burrowing ground-bug in the
lettuce-patch, to accept a position of such
a decidedly sedentary nature as sitting on
china egg for six months, her health
should be carefully guarded.
To secure the best efforts of hen it
should continually be impressed upon
her that the price of eggs is very low. A
hen has been known to lay four eggs in
one day when under the impression that
they were drug on the market. With a
little careful attention to some of these
points almost any one with ordinary IN
tcliigence can become successful hen
agriculturist. II Estelline Bell.

Too Much Ozone.

Mr.. Lawrence, Capt. Moorhouse and
two calico horses - the latter from the
far-off Pacific Slope-were the heroes of
lively occurrence, last Friday, on the
Williamsport prairie. The gentlemen had
driven out to the Roop farm. and, while
returning, at point about half mile
distant from this place, a touch Of the
whip caused one Of the horses to kick,
thereby getting one of his legs over a
trace. Mr.. Lawrence got out to fix
things, and Capt. Moorhouse also alight-
ed. The former went up to the horses
heads, when he was bitten on the finger
by one Of them. The team then made
rush, knocking him down. But, as he fell
between the horses, lodged the axles,
and kept inside the wheels, the outfit
passed without doing him further injury
The affrighted beasts then ran at full
speed over the road to Williamsport
Several men turned out to head them of,
but without avail. When about 200
yards from the buildings the whifflctree
luckily came loose, and fell to the ground
the buggy coming to halt, uninjured
The animals cavorted over the prairie
until they were tired out, when they were
captured. The horses escaped with
hardly a scratch. 1t was lucky affair
all round, for such a desperate runaway
And now the RECORD, in the interest
Of public safety, would like to volunteer
a little of that exceedingly cheap article,
advice, to Bismarck gentlemen who may
contemplate trips to Emmons county.
DON'T start with team of even average
spirit You will be all right until you
cross the Burleigh- -Emmons line. Then
you will notice change. The increased
ozone in the atmosphere will begin to
affect your team, and by the time you

unmanageable. The air down this way

A Party of Railroud Men.

On Tuesday morning of last week a
party of four gentlemen left Glendale
for trip across the country to Bismarck,
in the interest of the Milwaukee & St.
| Paul railway. The party consisted of
the Hon. L. G. johnson Of Ofdway, Mr..
Richard and Mr.. Gaylord, of Minncap-
oils.
| They rode in two wagons, one belong
| ing to the road just named, and the other
from an Glendale livery stable. The
party kept together as far as Hoskins,
where they separated, Messrs. johnson,
Gaylord and Richard continuing toward
Willamsport, and Mr.. Kennedy going
westward toward the Missouri river. The
Johnson party reached Wiliamsport
Thursday noon, and soon after left for
Bismarck.
Saturday night Mr. Peter II. Uphousc,
of Ellendale, who drove for Mr.. Kennedy
around by Winchester, stopped at Will
iamsport on his way home from Bismarck
Being an intelligent young man, during
the trip he of course had opportunities
of hearing remarks and forming an opin-
ion US to the object of the trip. His ac-
count as given to RECORD representa-
tive, may prove of interest:

few houses to be seen. At Hoskins there
is pretty little valley. and the town is
situated on lake but there IS nothing
like so much tirst-cass farming land as
there is around Williamsport. We found
considerable settlement for about Is miles
west from Hoskins, and then we struck
some terribly rough country, with settlers
few and far between. The country was
SO rough and hilly that Mr.. Kennedy said
nothing could be gained by going further.
We must have been within few miles
of the river. We then turned north and
a little cast to avoid the big hills. We
found considerable good country further
on. Stopped Wednesday night at c. F.

that south of Winchester, and certainly
Can agree with him. The three. gentle
men who took the northwestern route
said they were much pleased with the
country, and that II railroad could be
chcaply constructed by that route.
Mr. Uphouse while in Bismarck asked
one of the gentlemen, "Wherc would be
a good place to get a claim?' and was
told, "You can't miss it much if you set
tie in the Williamsport or Hoskins coun
try" He says he and some friends of his
intend to come up this way soon and pick
out homes.
