when young girls begin to tire of balls,

where they are only one of many and feel
that personally they are not attracting
any more admiring attention than any
other of the young ladies in their set, and
so they put their wits TO work to see what

mental effort, they cry out, II have 1t,

THE BEST ADVICE.

Soon after Felix Grundy was adj
mitted to the bar, he opened an
Office for practice in q Kentucky vii
lage, and was sitting brieless in a
court room when man was brought
up to be tried for murder, and the
judge asked him il he had lawyer.
The man said he had none, and had
no money TO pay a lawyer. The
judge said to Mr.. Grundy, "Will
you please take this mans case, and
take him outside of the court room,
and talk with him, and give him the
best advice you CAM" Grundy
gladly took this, his first case, and
took the accused out of the court
room, and to a window that over
looked hill at a distance, and said
to the accused, NOW, / am your
lawyer, and it is my duty to make
the best defence l can for you to
enable me to do that, you must tell
me all about this matter. Now, did
you kill the man."
The accused man said, eyes, Sir
rec, and what is worse they can
prove it,
Mr.. Grundy said, "You heard the
judge tell me to give you the best
advice | could, and the best advice
[ can give you is, to take yourself
over and beyond the top of that hill
(pointing TO it) as fast as your feet
and legs can carry you, and will
stand here until you are fairly out
of sight, and then ] will return into
the court room and take my seat,
and very soon after that, there will
be a hue and cry and men after you,
and if you do not save yourself you
cannot blame me, and cannot say |
did not give you the best advice"
The accused unhesitatingly did as
Grundy advised, and after the man
was fairly out of sight Grundy re-
turned to his seat in the court room,
The judge said to him, "Where is
your client!" Grundy said, "Your
Honor, the last | saw of him he was
going very rapidly over the brow of

THE KlKIHALE ROW,

The disturbance at Kikihale,
briefly mentioned in yesterdays
issue, resulted in the arrest of four
native soldiers of the Household
Guards and South Sea Islander.
There was Il big luau at that place
yesterday, and as usual when sol
dcrs get their liberty for short
time they make the most Of it, and
frequently pull up at the Station
House. AS the luau progressed and
some Of the invited guests began to
get well primed, there was too much
noise to suit the owner of the pre-
misses. He insisted upon little
more quietness, but no notice being
taken of his demand, he called in II
policeman who resided near by to
interfere. The officer found he had
tough job before him, for he had
scarcely opened his mouth when he
was pounced upon by a number of
the rUilians. He blew his whistle,
which attracted the attention of
other officers. and after a hard
struggle they finally landed the UNI
ruly soldiers at the Station House.
One policeman received a bad cut
over the eye. This morning two of
the soldiers-Palaklko and Kanuwai
were charged with assault and
battery on each other, Kuaole was
charged with assault and battery on
police officer, while Moike and
Akakani, the South Sea Islander,
had charges OF obstructlng and per-
verting justice against them. The
cases are not yet concluded.
