PROTECT THE FISH.

Undoubtedly fish in Hawaiian
waters are as much in need of pro-
lection rs birds on Hawaiian lands.
In the past, when fishing was entirely
in the hands of the native people,
there was not the same need for
protection as now that the industry
is largely in the hands of the Chi
nese: for natives are not in the habit
of scooping up everything in the
shape of fish, big and small to-
gether, as the Cinnamon do. Then,
considering that fish food constitutes
an important staple in the national
dietary scale, while bird flesh may
be regarded more in the light of n
luxury, it will be admitted that pro-
lection of fish is more important
than protection of game. 1t is a
matter that should be dealt with by
the Legislature at its present ses-
sion. If left to stand over for
another two years, incalculable
damage will be done. Cinnamon,
who bid fare to secure monopoly
of this industry, use nets of very
fine meshes, by which small and inn
mature fish are caught, and scarcity
must follow if they are allowed to
keep on using such nets. A short
and simple measure will meet the
case. 1t is not an abstruse and
complicated matter that requires
long consideration or extended in
vestigation. No doubt the Minister
of Interior will be able to produce a
bill to cover the ground, that will
require but little amendment, and
can be passed through its different
stages without delay. 1t is to be
hoped that this will be done.

thing strange was noticed in the girls

DIDN'T LIKE WALL STREET.

A Cattle Kings short Visit to the
-. Stock Exchange.
The man was from Texas. Short and
dark, he wore cheap and untidy suit ct
black, rubber gauntlets with dropping
tops, and his nails were long and horny.
Beneath the waving line of q soft felt hat
his dark-brown eyes, small and at times
sharp, restlessly took in everything within
range. He was cattle king. Upon the
rolling lands of Texas his herds roamed,
waxing fat and increasing rapidly. His
name was good for six figures at the
Chicago stock yards, and in the CONNER
cial reports he had all OF the letters
opposite his name that struggling young
business men, further down in the alpha
bet, look upon as crown jewels in COM
merce.
sAh, take a, seat" said broker. 81
want to have a talk with you" The
cattle king had maintained silence, and
as he took chair he Topped one foot
under him and began to swing the other.
"Well, sir, are you bull on the list 2"
asked the broker.
ooh, amt nothin' but cow driver"
said the Texan. 1.-THE best bulls know
are down at the head of the Concho, with
my cows"
"Wen. we are having great market"
said the broker. 'The man that will buy
his stocks now and put them away is
surer than deaIn TO make big money"
Same way with cows" said the cattle
king. s'Only cows don't get fat on water
like some of yo' sheers of stock up here. "
''Isn't cattle raising a risky business !?
Seems to me I'd as soon have mortgage
on school of mackerel off Cape Cod as
money in cattle that you don't know
where to find when night comes. Now a
man with New York Central. Rock Island,
Northwestern, or Lackawanna can figure

"Wall, our stuff's in beef and bone, hide
and horns, and it don't shrink SO as to
wipe you clean down to nothin'. don't
want any O. your sheers of stock. Give
me cows every time. What's more, if q
man makes any money out o. you folks.
somehow you steal it back, and more
too.''
Tut, tut, my friend. you have the
wrong idea. The integrity of Wall street
men is the strength of the financial inter-
ests of this country. Hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars in value exchange hands
here every day upon the word of men who
meet ON the floor of the Exchange"
"You don't hey no writings ?"
''No, SIR"
"Well. dog gone me if I can see through
it. I reckon I amt got brains enough to
make any money in Moo York. Mebbe its
as you say, but I'll stick to cows"
The cattleman arose and repeated his
determination not to buy any stocks that
morning, and passed out with n mild
show of courtesy. The next place he in
quired for was q cut-rate ticket Office.
He took the night train for Texas. He
said he wanted elbow room.

4 PARROTS Tragic Death.

Thomas Green, the proprietor of Phla-
delphia hotel, allowed his parrot to walk
about on the window ledge of one of the
second story windows one night. The
window was open and Polly lost her bal
ance and fell OH her head on the street
pavement. AS she fell she attracted the
attention of an officer. He ran and picked
the parrot up AS he carried it into the
hotel the parrot said:
'Polly sick"
Blood trickled from ITS green feathered
head as the officer handed it to the clerk,
and the bird said again as it closed its
eyes
"Polly's sick''
The wife of the hotel proprietor who
thought great deal of the bird, soothed
it in her.hands and strOked the wounded
head.
"Polly's SICK" said the parrot again,
and then, as the blood flowed down its
eyes it tried to brush it away with it's
claws While its bleeding head was
washed it repeated a mum Der Of times:
"Polly's sick.'
For an hour it lay perfectly quiet, with
its eyes closed, and then suddenly repeat
ed again:
"Polly's sick.''
A moment later the parrot fell over
dead.

or cry. 81 thought supposed-I don't
know what did think ''
And she ran into the house and hid be-
hind the great Japanese screen in the best
parlor, followed straightway by Walter
Milliman.
"Oh, go away" she sobbed; feel as if
I could go through crack in the floor.
I am so dreadfully, horribly ashamed of
myself. It's all mistake"
''No, it is not,' said Milliman, re-
assuringly. about our being engaged,
dearest-that's not mistake ?''
"No, that isn't a mistake. but"
"Then L don't care straw about any
thing else," said Walter rapturously.
" And it is a consolation. too, isn't it, to
think that after all, old SLIDER is not such
a fool as we took him for.''
YES" said Narcissa, in low voice,
"I think it is"
