went back to Pittsburg, Pa, about q
month ago, with the Intention Of

Mrs. CIeveIand,s Double.

Mrs. Cleveland has double in Wash
ineton, whose appearance on the prom
enades and resorts of fashionable people
in the West End is creating much inter
est and amusement. An air Of mystery
surrounds the lady, from the fact that
people generally have no idea who she
is. One thing Is certain she Is 50 very
much like the lady of the White House
that almost every person who passes her
in the street turns to get a good look at
the person they suppose to be the Presi
dents young wife. From time to time
paragraphs appear in the local papers to
the effect that Mrs. Cleve AMI was prom
enading on Connecticut avenue on Sun
day, or that she was seen taking an early
morning walk through the West End, or
that she was buying violets in the mar
ket. The paragraphs generally con-
cluded with the statement that she was
accompanied by the large dog Roy"
recently presented to her. 1t was soon
learned that Mrs. Cleveland was at none
of the places at which the papers re-
ported her to be Then it was learned
that the mysterious stranger who so
closely resembled her was the lady
who was attracting all the atten-
ton. 1t is not surprising that the
mistakes were made, for the lady does
look strikingly like Mrs. Cleveland.
She is of the same height, and almost
of the same proportions. She has the
same bright face and pleasant smile, and
altogether Is quite as good looking even
rs Mrs. Cleveland. She is somewhat
heavier, however, and her hair and eyes
are of lighter shade. This lady is al
ways accompanied by big dog as she
walks about the city, but he is larger
than ''Roy, and a better looking dog,
Last Sunday the unknown lady and her
faithful companion walked out Con-
necticut avenue toward Dupont Circle as
the great crowd of promenaders were
going up and down that fashionable
Sunday thorOughfafe. Almost every
person she meant looked hard at her or
made some comment about how queer it
was for Mrs. Cleveland to be out on that
busy street alone. The lady evidently
knew that she was being stared at, for
she hurried along in an embarrassed
manner, hiding her face as much as pos
sibe and looking straight ahead. The
occupants of the White House were for a
time greatly puzzled to know how the
various paragraphs mentioning Mrs.
Cleveland's appearance in all quarters Of
the city found their way into the news
papers. They understand the matter
now, and whenever Mrs. Cleveland is
reported as being in some place she was
not, she knows she is the victim of mis-
taken identity, chargeable to the lady
who looks like her-Nlo York SIN.

Twin Curses of Sandwich Islands.

with all the increasing prosperity OF
the Sandwich Islands. said Mr.. George
~ ~ 1WNoieott, prominent sugar prodgeey
of Hawaii, to a st. Louis F0-t-DisIs...
reporter, ''the natives are fast losing
ground, and are diminishing in numbers
with startling rapidity. The islands pos
sess an almost perfect climate, il all
probab lily the best in the world, and
epidemic diseases are practically I'M
known. But two scourges are now rag
ing among the islanders with little pros
Iect of diminution, leprosy and drink.
The natives are very fond of liquor, but
seem unable to resist its effects, and after
indulgence for a year or two almost in
variably die. But the great curse Of the
natives is leprOsy. Whites are scarcely
ever affected, and Cinnamon very sell
dom, but fully three-fourths Of the
deaths among the natives are caused by
this disease.
Everything has been done to stop it,
large reward has been offered for any
means of stopping or even checking its
ravages, and every six months a ship
makes a tour of the island, collects all
those far advanced in the disease, and
takes them TO a remote island, where
they remain in isolation for the
rest of their lives, in order that the con
tagion may not spread But all has been
in vain. the disease becomes every year
more prevalent and destructive, especially
on the largest island, that of Hawaii,
and it is a question of very few years
when the entire race will succumb. The
Sandwich Islanders, owing to the efforts
of the missionaries, who, by the way,
are nearly all traders, and very success
full ones at that, have become Christian
lied after fashion, but many of the
superstitions of heather times still pre-
vail.
1.-THE most universal belief is that Of
the power of MAJ TO pray his enemy to
death. The Sandwich islanders possess
a peculiar faculty in this respect. When
man becomes convinced that some one
is praying him to death he will gradually
waste away, and finally die from fright.
This faculty Of simply giving up and dy-
ing is, as far as | know, peculiar to the
Sandwich Islands, butts manifestations
have been too marked and frequent to
admit of any doubt entertained on the
subject. The natives to-day are scarcely
considered when the best policy for the
interests of the islands is discussed, and
actual instead of practical annexation 70
the United States would be best in al
respects for their interests"

Rich Naval Prizes.

Naval men, especially in the last cen
fury, have often grown rich on the pro-
ceeds OF a single expedition, or even on
those of a single captured hostile ship.
In l143, during Commodore Anson's
cruise, for example, the Centurion, on
June 20, took the Spanish galleon Nostra
de Cabadango, which had on board bull
ion and cargo to the value Of s., 0e0, 900
and. before the Commodore returned to
England, his squadron captured other
vessels which were worth 50, 600, 600.
Anson's share of this sum was over
$3.50, 900. Again, or July 30, l745, the
Prince Frederick, Captain James Talbot,
brought home prizes which, with their
cargoes, were worth over 5000, 900
dollars. The treasures and plate alone
filed forty five wagons, and the Captains
share Of the plumber was about 5000, 900.
In the same year another English vessel
took a Spanish ship with 81, 600, 900 on
board, and third, the Surprise, cap
tured a French East Indiaman worth
$7j0, 600. Other captures in li45 were
the Charmante 81, 600, 000), the Heron
$3.50, 0O0l, the Notre Dame de Ia Deliv-
rance $500, 900, and the Conception.
The latter's consisted of a large
quantity of cocoa, eight chests of
silver, gold and silver coin to the
amount Of over 81, 600, 600, much plate,
two-wheeled chaise, the wheels and
axle-trees, etc, of which were of silver
set with Diamonds and other precious
stones, and a quantity of gold in bars.
"When the ship was put up for sale, the
French captain, upon the promise of
reward from Captain FARMLAND, the
captor, discovered. TO him 30, 900 pistoles,
which were concealed in a place where
no one would have ever dreamed of find
ing anything This ship was one of
the richest prizes ever taken; but its
value was exceeded BY that Of the Her
mione, a Spanish treasure-ship, which
was taken in 1862 by Captain Pownall of
the Favourite The three lieutenants of
the British vessel received as their shares
sos, 900 apiece, aud the captain OBJ
tanned 1926, 900, while $500, 900 went to
the flag officers on the Mediterranean sta
ton, where the capture was made. The
admiral was at the time miles away from
the scene of action, and had very little
to do with the capture. - Cdsse!fs Jour

The most charming draperies are so
simple in their lines as to battle descrip-

the extreme.
The byzantine braids of rich tiusel

A Remarkable Column.

Carter Harrison says, in letter from
Delhi. India, to the Chicago WfH: Cities
lie here in strata, As the RIBS of the earth
do, in its mighty rOcks-sandstone, shale,
limestone, and marble. Can we hope that
under British rule will overlie all a
stratum of rich loan, to be yet watered
by the sweat of happy and prosperous
people. till it waves like field of grain
and blossoms as the rose Close to the
iron pillar stands, to me, one of the
most interesting and beautiful monu-
ments | have ever seen, the ''kutab
Minar.n This is species of column
with diameter at its base of nearly fifty
feet, and rising to height of two hun
dred and forty odd feet, with a diameter
at its apex of nine feet. At one time it
continued to still greater height of ten
to twenty feet; the upper part was
thrown of by an earthquake within the
present century. 1t is divided into five
stories, graduated in perfect symmetry.
Each story is surmounted by balcony
supported by an exquisite bracketed
cornice. But, as a still further relief,
each story is divided into what appears
to be other stories by broad bands Of
Arabic inscriptions, extracts from the
koran. The column is futed for most
of its height. and built of red, buff,
and pink sandstone and white marble.
For what purpose it was built no one
knows. It Is as beautiful in its form and
construction as it is unique in its concep-
ton. The Kutah Minar is eleven miles
from the present city. The space be-
tween is a mass of ruins of older cities.
