The Ladies
Baptist L5FarH

Some days ago. several mem-
bers of the Dawson Baptist church,
met at the home of their Pastor,
topass pleasant hour, aud among
other things, they discussed the
subject Of 2 church library. All
unanimously ayr ed that library
was important, and greatly needed,
and, determining to make an eff
fort Tor one, they Immediately re
solved themselves into a committee
OF ways and means.
The stringeney of the times and
scarcity OF cash made this part Of
their work rather tough, but our
Committee a,.e equal to the enier>
y gen0y Believing that,an effort to
rtise money to buy hooks would
cripple, if 1t did no; defeat the en-
terprise, they resolved to ask Of the
Friends Of the enterprise ii lieu II
money, atlGnation OF books. This
sceme's, 70 the entire party, So
luton Of the question Tor the pres
ent, and thoy Immediately began
to put (heir plan into operation.
up TO this time it has succeeded
beyond their expectation, several
good volumes having been prompt
" sent in. These, Of course, form
b nucleus around which, in future,
I've may build al libitan.
The importance of this matter
commends it to every thinking per-
son, and especially to the members
of the BAPTIST Church. And now
that it is thus publicly brought to
notice. we trust we shall continue
to receive donations Of suitable
books, from inc friends Of the en-
terprise.
Any standard literary works,

works mathematician, suitable

them made as many as six trades

were no better than the ones they
started with. Bob. fifteen-year-
old sou of uncle Wright Kenaedy,
started out with a FIVE dollar horse
and after making four trades had q
better horse and twenty dollars in
cash. Bob advised us to quit the

JEFF Davis tells a good joke on
little Frank Summons, the six,year
old son,of Judge r F Simmons.
In front of Mr.. Davis clothing
store are two clothing dummies
that look more like human than
some men we know. Little Frank
has never been out on the streets
alone many times and is not very
we'll acquainted with the ways Of
the world.
So a few days ago Frank passed
along by the store aud seeing the
clothing signs and catching hold OF
the coat that was on it said: 'sMis,
ter did you see nv mamma 90 by
here?" Say mister have you seen
my mamma" After asking both Of
the dummies these questions about
his mama, and being treated with
silent contempt, Frank, not hay
ing the time to spare, went on up
the street IL search OF her How,
ever he seemed to be somewhat
disappointed and occasionally
looked back as though he had I
desire to renew the inquiry.

A CoMMoN-sENsE DUCHESS.
How Her Grace of Sutherland Shocked
the Swells.

From, the Nep York IT. bune
The late Duchess OF Sutherland was, dur
ing the active period of her life, the cause
of no little bewilderment and disquietude
among the rank-reveriug denizens of that
aristocratic section of st. James where
Stafford house stands in gloomy grandeur.
Her common-sense methods of securing
convenience, without regard to ceremonious
formalities, often startled the devotees of
conventionality and thrilled the observers
with anxiety lest her grace be led astray by
the example OF her husband whose fad" it
was to mingle with the populace on exciting
occasions, such as midnight fires and riots like
that OF Hyde Park, some twenty years
ago. Rid culous as it may seem to republi-
can readers, the duchess was severely criti-
clsed for her habit of walking forth alone
from her number mansion and calling cab
when in a hurry, instead of letting q half
hour go to waste while the cumbersome
vehicle appropriate to her station should be
made ready. The entire precinct was once
thrown into flutter by the report, doubtless
correct, that SIZE had personally entered
the little bakery in st. James street, in
which postal agency was established, and
had there purchased stamps and affixed
them to her letters, precisely as one of the
untitled multitude might have done.
mounts guard over the palace wall of
Cleveland Row had the opportunity of re-
Heving mis- dreary routine by saving a child
from being run over--a radical cab-hCrse
from Pail Mall having so forgotten the pro-
prieties as to break loose and endanger
human life, as we'll as the drowsy tranquil
lty of that solemn region. A day or two
later the duchess ives seen to stop and speak
to the guardsman, who was so overcome by
agitation that he could hardly hold his rife
steady. He would have faced the lannon's
mouth with less trepidation than exchange
ten words with this exalted peeress. The
presumption was that her grace desired
simply to say kind word in commentator
of the mans behavior; but the proceeding
was regarded with anything but approval by
the resident spectators. The verdict of the
austere middle class, throughout the neigh
borhood, was that the duchess had been
reprehensibly unmindful of the dignity of
her position, and that she would have done
better to send the soldier half a crown by
her footman. For this and similar reasons
she was not admired by the bourgeoisie Of
London. And yet there are people on both
sides of the Atlantic who profess to wonder
that the social sensibilities of Americans and
Englishmen cannot at all points be brought
into sympathetic and symmetrical ac-
cord

1t has long been known that q free ex
posture to sunlight or diffused daylight is
tranquilizing to the nerves, and the physi
clans at Alessandria, acting upon this, have
carried the test much further and distn
guished between the effects of different
colors in the light. The sashes of an asylum
window were filled with glass of various
colors, and the walls and woodwork were
painted to match the glass A patient suf-
fering from melancholia, who refused t.
eat, was placed in one of the rooms with
walls and windows of bright red. Three
hours exposure TO this influence produced
cheerfulness and he asked for food.
This seemed very important to phys
clans, who know that with the insane whose
malady begins with melrncholia the refusal
of food is the earliest, the most common
as well as thehmost dangerous symptom. anG
is generally persisted in until nourishment
has to be administered by force; so that the
removal of that fancy, and the restoration
of a healthy, spontaneous desire for food
caused by only a few hours subsection to
light influence is an important fact in the
annals of medicine. Another melancholy
patient, who always kept his hands over
his mouth so as to shut out food and air,
to improve, and the next day had so far
forgotten his Authorization that he ate with
a hearty appetite. Still another patient, u
violent maniac, was placed in blue room,
and became quiet in an hour, while a
fourth was completely cured after passing
a day in violet colored room.

M0RMONISM.

The cause of MOrmOnism does not APP
pear to be popular in Honolulu, nor has
it awakened very widespread interest
in the community, either hostile or
otherwise. The service at the newly
erected church on Kinau street last Sun
day evening, although duly announced
in the daily papers, attracted a congre
CATION numbering perhaps little over
score. The proceedings in their general
characteristics resem bled those of a
Methodist gathering, there being an en-
tire absence OF ceremonial. There were
several hymns and prayers, followed by
addresses by three missionaries from
Utah, whose style of oratory resemble
that of the typical Methodist parson,
though the doctrines enunciated were Of
course somewhat different The tone of
the discOurses was almost entirely de-
fensive. A large array of statistics was
quoted to show what good and moral
people the Mormons are, as compared
with the ''gentiles," as they were called,
living side by side with them in Utah,
and who constitute the official classes
In fact, from the Mormon point OF view,
if there were no "gentiles" there would
be hardly any any need for jails. Moth
ing, however, was said about the diff
Guilty that would naturally be expe-
rienced in obtaining evidence in Grim
inal cases against Mormons in their own
stronghold. The question of polygamy
was briefly touched upon, it being urged
that inasmuch as certain holy men OF
old were permitted to have more than
one wife, there was no good reason why
the privilege should not still hold good.
We fancy it will require a weightier argu-
ment than this before Honolulu society,
especially the feminine portion, is con-
verified to Mormon views on this vital
point. The action of the United States
authorities in seeking to Illustrate this
grand prerogative, after having refrained
from doing so during a number of years,
was denounced in quite a whirlwind OF
rhetoric, it being apparently held that
because a sin of omission has been COM
mitted in the past it should therefore be
perpetuated. AT the conclusion of the
service it was intimated that any ques-
tons on the subject would be welcome,
whereupon the congregation rose to their
feet en- masse and-sought the outer air. |

A BIT OF HAWAIIAN HISTORY.

A recent issue of the ''SpringfeId Re-
publican" journal which has OF late
evinced a good deal of interest in Ha-
waiian affairs, publishes letter from
the pen of Mr.. j. H. Lyman, the first
portion OF which is republished in this
issue; the remainder will appear in to
mOrrOW's ADVERTISER. The letter deals
with page of Hawaiian history which
has probably never come under the
notice of many of our readers. The cir
cumstances SO accurately related are
we'll remembered Ivy a prom nent mer-
chant OF this city, whose career in these
Islands dates back to those early days.
Mr.. Lyman, who is an old resident OF
Northampton, Mass, has spent consider
able time on the Islands.
