An Idea.

There was sparkle in the twinkling
eyes of the PolynesIan laborers, and a
"don't-you-see-me-now" look on their
bright physiogs, as with bran new
muzzle-loading muskets they filed down
Fort street yesterday morning, doubt
less "building castles in the alr"-later
on to laugh at the "efuffin low" with
the awe-stricken and stay-at-home
"boys," We trust this is the last Of
this game OF playing with firearms
among the Polynesian Islanders. These
same style of arms too often in the
past have been successfully turned
against visitors to thosejslands, whether
Ia search of labor or for missionary

was written by Mr.. Fred. w. Haysel-
den in the interests of the Government
party. The demand was made by
Messrs. Hayselden, Kaulukou and
their attorney, Mr.. Whiting The de-
mand is stated to have been very
abrupt and was promptly refused. The
Government party will be surprised to
learn that the time has gone by when
it can "bulldoze" even native editors.
The following gentlemen made
speeches at the political meeting held
at Kaumakapili Church last evening
Pua, Kanui, Lokai, Keau, ]. M. Poe
poe, Chas. Ache, ]. o. Carter, H.
Swinton, Kap Jlena, Henry Warehouse,
J. U. Kawainui and w. L. Holokahiki.
Mr.. ]. w. Kaikuahine acted as Chair
man, MIR. Kaiwi as Secretary Mr.. ]. o.
Carter, when called upon to speak, re-
ceived loud applause from the audience.
de made quite long and pointed
speech in English, Mr.. J. E. Bush act
ing as native interpreter. After his
speech he received another round OF
applause from his listeners. Mr. Holc-
kahlki, who was the last speaker on the
programme, when called took the plat
form, upon which the audience arose
en- maSSe and took their leave, much to
the astonishment and discontinue oil
the speaker.
They say: That the raid of some
of the Government candidates for "a
letter on yesterday was only partial
success; that the matter-offact natives
don't see quite as the 'old man" does;
that the assertions of the times are most
delusive; that officer Fehlber is valu-
able official in many respects, and
would be more SO still if he could only
keep his mouth shut about cases that
are going on in Court"-or words to
that effect; that the Opposition
"boom," is quite healthy, in spite
of the silver-coated editorials fired
against it that a young lady
was heard to greet friend at the
Opera House last night with, "I'm
6rett; well, how are you ?" that the
other girl thought the same thing, but
did not say it out loud /; that the merry
makers will make merry times when
they arrive; that the wind blew very
hard at Kaumakapili church last night
that it's political wind that blows a
few men good that the authorities
we're not aware that carpenters were at
work in the new bank building last
Sunday; that there is a grave
suspicion ahoat that the
said carpenters were protected by
the veritable gypsy charm; that the
police are on the scent of the Post
Office robbers, and that they are likely
to stay right thar, that there will be
political music in the air before long;
that the temperance meeting at the
wharf last Sunday afternoon was such a
success that another will be held next
Sunday; that the social ''little boy
blue" will blow his horn before the
new year is old; that the new game,
political religion, won't 60 down the
Catholics, as will be seen at election
time; that the Coming thro' the rye
policy of the so-called National candi
dates is failing to catch the native vote
as was expected; and that the large
audience fully appreciated the play al
the Opera House last night.

Since Electricity has been applied for light
ing purposes, all efforts Of inventors have
been directed to construct lamp for general
domestic use. The reason why this problem
has till now not been solved, is that none Of
the inventors could rid themselves Of the idea
of gas lighting, and that all have adhered to
the system Of producing the Electricity in
some central place, or by large machinery, in
stead Of first laying down the principle that
Lamp which should ever become generally
useful and popular, must be portable, like an
Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Elec-
tricity in itself, l. G., in the foot of the Lamp.
The Norman Electric Light Company has
at last succeeded in completely realizing this
ideal Of Electric Lighting, and there is no
doubt that this most important invention will
branches of lighting.
Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machin-
cry, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay,
and is neither complicated nor disagreeable in
manipulation all that is necessary is to refill
il every four or five days with acid. The cost
Of lighting will be as cheap as gas ~ cents
per hour), and it has before the latter the inn
mense advantage Of neither producing heat,
smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which the
air is not inquired, and remains at the same
degree OF temperature. 1t is further abso
luteIy nodorous, and does not need to be
kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply
by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger
of fire, explosion or suffocation, as in the case
Of gas, il the key is left open and it must be
conceded that this advantage alone is invalu-
able. 1t is further preferable 10 any known
kind of lighting for the following reasons:
| ~ Its manipulation is so simple that any
child can keep it in order.
(a) That the Lamp is portable, and can be
removed like any Oil Lamp, from one place
to another.
(3) That it neither requires the disagree
able fixing OF the wick, or the cleaning Of the
cylinder, as in the case Of Oil Lamps.
(4) That the light produced is soft and
most steady one that it never fickers, and
the flame, though being equal in power Of
lighting to gas, can be regulated to any de-
gree.
81 That every danger Of fire is absolutely
excluded, as the light will extingush mmedi-
ately, il by any accident the glass surrounding
the burner should be broken.
(6.) That il will burn, even in the strongest
wind, completely unaffected, thus being in
valuable for Examinations, lighting Of gardens,
corridors, etc.
This Lamp is constructed for the present in
three different sizes;

Ladies and Women.

An amusing story is now being told in
London OF the late Justice Maule's treat
ment on one occasion OF those strong.
minded ladies who are so fond OF crowding
into the law courts whenever any particu-
larly sensational or horrible case is on
trial. The counsel for the prosecution was
about to examine a witness in detail on
matters generally mentioned in the press
as unfit for publication" when the Judge
asked the "ladies" of whom there were
large number present, to be SO kind as to
retire fora short space OF time. Thereupon
ensued II general uprising and rnstling of
dresses, lasting for some minutes, after
which it was seen that about one-half only
OF the female audience had left. "And
now" said Justice Maule, 'now that the
ladies have retired-usher clear these
women out OF the court."-N Y. Mail and

A Roman Water-Course.

The excavations carried On in the
Roman arena at Paris have Just been
rewarded with very interesting results.
An artificial water course in excellent
preservation has just been laid bare,
which evidently served the purpose OF
filling the circus with water on the
occasion of mimic sea fights. Enough
of the structure of the door posts re-
mained to show that the entrance was
closed by door of extraordinary
strength, which would indeed be needed
to stem the force of the water. The
hole which held the door hinge is
clearly made out. The excavators have
further come upon number of seats
for the spectators, and also on some
fragments of slab on which were in
scribed the names of the dignataries--
inhabitants of the ancient town of
Lutetia, who had right to seats Of
honor.-N. Y. Post.

page turned shows him to be neither tall
nor short, thick nor thin. but soldier,
well-proportioned who is looking over his
shoulder in the most natural manner pos
sible.
The figures in the illustration were cut
from advertising cards, and the head be-
longs to none of the bodies.
A curious fact in arranging the pictures
in this way, is that the heads all look as
though they might really belong to any OF
the various bodies given them.
Instead OF having but one figure on a
page, groups may be formed OF both men
and women, and in the different arrange
ment OF the figures, they can be made very
ludicrous indeed.
This scrap-book, where one picture trans
forms itself many times, far exceeds the or
dnary one where the picture once pasted
in remains ever the same in it's powers OF
entertainment. In the drawing-room as
well as the nursery, by the old as well as
the young, the Transformation Scrap-Book
will be found amusing.-Youth's Compan.
