How TO Photograph Birds.

DR.. r. W. Shufeldt suggests to orni-
biologists that they may find portable
Photographic outfits of advantage in their
studies. He finds that by the use Of the
instantaneous shutter birds may be
photographed in nearly all Of their posi-.
tons. ''Out here on the prairies we will
often find an old stump Oh stalk upon
which a dozen or fifteen species Of birds
will alight during seven or eight hours on
almost any dag suitable TO use the camera
upon them. Now, all we have to do is
10 properly set our instrument ncar this
point, conceal it in such a way as not "a

Sending Unsealed Letters.

The point of etiquette, in regard to
not sealing letters sent by the hand of a
friend. is TO be considered, undoubtedly,
as settled by the usage Of polite society.
And yet there are two sides 10 the ques-
ton. 70 intrust to a friend an unsealed
letter TO q third person is a compliment
TO the friend; but why should it be
thought necessarily uncomplimentary if
the letter he sealedl On the other hand,
the sealing of a letter may be deemed
always advisable, for one good reason at
least. The contents of an unsealed letter
are never safe. They are safe so far as
the honorable friend is concerned, but
not safe in any other sense. They may
be lost from the envelope easily and in
n~ocently. They may be distracted
and read by the servant to whom
the note is delivered at the
door, or by any prying individual who
may find the misSive lying on the hall
table and awaiting the owners arrival.
Especially unsafe is it TO place in an un-
sealed package articles Of large money
value. Would any sane man send n $50
bill in an unseaied envelope by the hand
Of a friend or anybody whomsover? The
friend himself, If he knew the nature of
the Enclosure, would be very apt TO pro-
test against this sacrifice of common
sense at the shrine Of etiquette. &c. S.

Attractions of One Of the Azores.

Al San Miguel the first real disappoint-
ment came in shape of the announcement
that the steamer would not stay long
enough to 60 to the Furnas. The Furnas
has, it is claimed. the most wonderful
hot springs in the world. You can sit
with n foot in a hot sulphur spring and
have the other in hot iron. while you
drink soda water from a well in front
and brandy punch from another at your
back. There are also several streams
running through the place where Boiled
trout can be easily caught, and if this is
all strictly true, there is nc question but
the Furnas has vet to be developed as a
winter resort. Being compelled to miss
this, we tried TO drown sorrow in the
native pineapples, and my impression is
that | shall try to have some more sor-
row to drown next time ! go to the place.
II the ~pineapples Of San Miguel were any
better. a man would 60 insane when he
ate his first one The pineapples we
have in America are like grapeshot COM
pared with these.-Cor. Boston Tran

Early Inhabitants Of America.

A glance at the geologies of the pres
ent day shows that workers in this de-
partment of natural history are enabled
to map cut the continents and seas of
ages ago almost as correctly as they can
those of today-so distinctly are the old
shores and landmarks outlined. Today
we ride in cars across the American con-
tinent; yet not 80 long ago, geologically
speaking, a vast inland sea extended
northwest from the Gulf of Mexico
finding its boundaries, in all probability,
on some shore now submerged beneath
the waters of the Pacific.
This was during what is known as the
age of chalk, or the cretaceous period
and millions of years ago, if our geologi-
cal estimates are correct. The question
as to whether nan existed then is an in
teresting one. Evidence of human life
has not been found; yet there were vast
areas Of land, with animals and plants Of
great variety, and as there was no physi-
cal barrier 10 human existence, in the
opinion of many the c%retaceous conti-
nents and islands Were populated by
man.
Knowing the actual conditions Of life
at this early time, the strange animals
that lived during it, it is a comparatively
easy matter TO understand or appreciate
the daily life of our ancestors. 1t is
evident that they were much more
primitive than even the bushman Of to-
day, and undoubtedly were what we
would term wild men, living in rocks
and caves as the lower animals do. They
were essentially hunters and fishermen,
depending upon game for their susie
nance. The small continent Of America
at this time had in all probability low,
marshy coasts, and the great ocean or
gulf, whose coast line can he traced from
Arkansas to near Fort Riley, on the
Kansas river, up to Minnesota to Canada,
near the head of Lake Superior, was a
vast shallow sea. On its borders We may
imagine cliffs of sandstone worn out into
caves and quarries, in which these early
fishermen made their homes. -Phila-

The Month for suicides.

''March is pre-eminently the month for
suicides" said a well known physician.
San assertion to which statistics and, in
fact. the horrible record Of the last few
days will amply bear witness. OF course,
it is a well recognized theory that such
crimes assume the form Of an epidemic
on slight proyocation, but il still remains
susceptible Of demonstration that the
windy month oyertops all others in SWELL
ing the list of self-murders. My theory
is that the vital forces have had such a
draft upon them during the severe winter
months that the system is so run down at
this season Of the year that dependency
ensues on the slightest provocation, and
then comes the end. / have not worked
this out as thoroughly as | should like,
and for the present shall refrain from
celebrating my views. Chicago Tri'

STAMPS the People Never See.

A woman who has the craze for stamp
collecting called at the Bangor postofico
recently and said she wanted 10 buy
-'some Of the stamps which are Cancelled
when postage is paid IN regular publica-
tons" IL sagainst the rule TO sell these
stamps, and the woman's remark led 10
an investigation by an inspector. Ac-
cordjng 10 a rule Of the department, mail
matter prepaid is receipted in a book.
which is sent b. Washington when filled.
Stamps Of a particular sort were placed
on the receipts and Cancelled. As they
were never allowed TO go from the Office
they were Of course Of great value TO col
lectors. The inspector found that the
book had been taken by an employee, who
believed ii 20 be Of no value. He sold
them and found eager customers for
them. Whatever he had on hand he
gave TO the inspector who called ON him.

AIlspice Is Well Named.

'Oh, no; allspice is not a mixture OF
q number of spices, but is a simple pro-
duct itself" said a wholesale grocer.
''The proper name for it is pimento, but
as it combines the flavor Of cinnamon,
cloves, mace and nutmegs, it generally
goes by the name of allspice. Pifnento
trees are natives of South America and
the West India islands. The bulk of the
pimento of commerce comes from ia
maica. Large groves Of the spice trees
grow on the hillsides OF the islands, and
thrive without cultivation. The leaves
Of the tree are bright green and glossy.
When bruised they give off a spicy dor.
The flowers grow in Gense clusters. The
fruit is a small, aromatic berry the size
of a small pea. If permitted TO ripen they
become pulpy and lose some of their
pungeaR. They are therefore gathered
while green, and dried in the sun on
rough platforms. When well cured they
are packed for shipment in large bags
holding from 1GO to $50 pounds. The
growers seldom get more than four cents
a pound for the dried berries. The bust
ness does not afford a livelihood, and
most growers feed horses aud cattle on
the rich pasture in the pimento groves.
'The value of the crop has increased
from $3.50, 900 in 1874 TO 500, 900 in
1887. The spice is shipped to this city
and to London, about half going to each
place. 1t is received in the berry and
ground between revolving stones. 1t is
then put up in tin cans, and is no longer
known as pimento, but is the allspice Of
commerce. New York Mail and Ex-

''Ah, well, we will say fifteen meters by

and proceeded 10 make a calculation. Al

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1888

THE city tramway running easterly
out King street, has broken ground nearly
to Thomas Square, and the rails are
placed in position to about Alapai street.
Could the Macadam stone be obtained
as fast as required, the track might be
finished to Thomas Square by October l,
and cars commence running that dis
lance from the date named. We see no
reason why the tramway may not be laid
to Punahou street by the middle of
November, if better transportation were
provided for the bringing of stone into
town from the quarry at Moiliii. Why
not run the tramway out past Judge Nc
Cully's residence to the quarry and
utilize it temporarily for carrying the
ballast needed all along the King street
route even to Palama? The main tram
way and its branches could thus be COM
pleted in quarter of the time now being
required for it.

TO-DAY the Vandaha leaves US. Her
stay in this port has been longer than
that of any other American war vessel
excepting the Lackawanna, which was
here about seventeen months. The Van
dallas stay has been extremely pleasant
for us all and her departure will be re-
GREETED by everyone. The only feature
connected with her stay of an unpleasant
nature was the annoying trouble which
so long prevented the Admirals full en-
jOyment of his visit. In this he had the
full sympathy of the entire community.
Her departure may be said to mark the
close of one of the most important epochs
in Hawaiian history. Coming just at
the close of the revolution she found
great excitement prevailing and fever
ish uncertainty as to what might come
next. She has witnessed two most i'm
portant sessions of the Legislature. Dur
ing her stay there have been times when
a spark might have ignited flame. I'm
questionably her presence has aided in
the preservation of peace and order.
Both officers and men have made only
friends among all classes of the people
and We only voice the general feeling in
saying we hope to see both the ship and
her gallant crew again. Farewell Van
dalia: may you have pleasant voyage.

nothing more to be said, and that the
verdict in November will be an over
whelming Democratic victory. From
Europe the news has an ominous appear
ance. The Austrian army is to be heav-
lily reinforced. The Eastern question
seems likely to come to the front again.
A Ministerial crisis is imminent in Nor
way. Plans are being made for the con-
struction of canal from the Black to the
Caspian Sea. Ishak Khan, the rebel
leader in Afghanistan, has defeated the
Ameer's troops and is moving on CabuI.

THE NEWS by the steamer is interest
ing but not of very great importance.
That which touches us nearest is the re-
cord of the great fire in San Fran
cisco which took place on the 9th
of this month. Particulars are given
in our foreign news letter. The
fact that the buildings destroyed were
mostly wood accounts for the small loss.
The assurances were only about twenty
per cent. Many disasters by sea and
land are reported in our letter. The DO
litical news shows that in the first of the
fall elections the Republicans have made
considerable gains. The State of Maine
has been carried by plurality of about
twenty thousand. Maine is, however,
naturally a Republican State. What
ever advantage the Republicans may
claim from this election is certainly
overbalanced by Cleveland's letter of &C
ceptance of the nomination for the Presi-
dency. His message to Congress last
December is certainly strengthened by
this letter Both European and Ameri-
can comment upon this letter indicate
the opinion that it is strong and we'll
document. The Chairman
of the Democratic National Committee
says, that it places the whole Democratic
case before the people; that there is
