small sum to pay in order to be carried
to see one of the greatest wonders of the
world. A few years back it used to cost

accommodations were much inferior, the

with what is now done for the tourist
The volcano trip is no longer an adven-
ture it can be done as easily as visiting
Niagara and far easier than the ascent OF
any of the Swiss mountains.
This country certainly offers special
Inducements for the tourist. 1t possesses
climate which cannot be matched
by any other spot in the world.
Then it is not only the volcano that tour
lists should see. There are scores of beau
tiful places to visit. Haleakala, on Maui,
is the largest extinct volcano in the
world. A series of articles on that mag
niicent mountain have been appearing
in our columns lately. The same trip
that takes the traveller up Haleakala
gives him an opportunity of visiting lao
Valley near Waikiki. What is more
beautiful than the fern-clad sides of this
picturesque spot, with it's elevated cliffs,
its wealth CT tropical vegetation and its
ever-changing cloud masses?
Then again there is Hilo, that most
trOpical-looking OF spots. Can anything
be more lovely than the view of Hilo bay
at early morning? That sweep of coast
line-the CLEAN of the white breakers on
the shore, the beautiful green slopes, and
towering above all thu crest of Mauna
Kea, snow-capped, glittering like ruby
in the rising sun. There are rides and
pleasant spots to visit, wonders to see.
There is the flow of 1881, which came
within an ace of overwhelming the town.
To go and see it's gnarled and twisted
form is itself worth journey. To realize
that this mass, solid now as the prime
val rock, was once molten, kissing, red
hot lava, is an education. The Rainbow
Falls are beautiful, but then this is
land of waterfalls. Again, there is Ke-
alakekua bay, place we'll worth a visit.
1t has scenic beauty, and historical re-
of the great circumnavigator
Cook. A pleasant week may be spent
in the uplands of Kona which overhang
the bay.
Every place we have mentioned is
easily accessible, steamers run to them,
and hotel and boarding house accommo-
lations can be obtained by the tourist
when he gets ashore. The attractions
we have are worth seeing and they can
be seen for moderate sum, which is
more than can be said for scenic attrac-
tons in either the United States or
Europe.

EDITOR FREEMAN:
Recently we have had several
Amendment meetings, and the
Temperance people of this commu-
nifty are becoming enthusiastic on
the subject; and the best of all is,
that our country folks are begin

J for more information concerning
the Amendment.
We believe that could the people
be addressed at each school house
IN the county, old Writ would
roll up wonderful majority for
the Amendment next November,
land that under such influences vic
tory will be assured. May the Ruler
lot all things open a way for US,
and help US fight this, the battle of
all battles, the battle of the Home
against the Saloon.
We have started an Amendment
League, as nucleus around which
we expect to rally and stand until
the battle is over, and we expect to
add to it daily such as favor the
Traffic.
Private Dalzell, of Ohio, was
with us on Sunday last, and being

sits bright little Scotch terrier. Ii you toss
him penny he catches 1t deity in his mouth
and puts his nose in his owners hand The
blind man utters his thanks and drops the
money in bag he wears around his neck
In the evening the dog leads his master
home, aud through some Of the most crowded
thoroughfareS, too
Nelson is the celebrated dog OF Seven
Dials he is always pointed out TO visitors
He got his name from having lost foot at
some disturbance at Trafalgar square He
always buys his own food When any one
gives Nelson q penny and be is hungry he
gees 70 butchers or bakers shop, as his
appetite dictates and placing tine coin on the

Office Seekers at the Cap;taI.

The office seekers at the capital do not by
any means represent the number of applica-
tions received. Many of the requests for
places are made by mail and not few by
congressman and senators who represent the
district from which the applicants come.
The horde at Washington is large enough
It fills the hotels at the first Of the session,
and it keeps up tbs boarding houses in the
back streets later on. When the office seeker
arrives he is flush, and he doesuot hesitate to
pay S. day for bis board. a week later he
begins to economic, and by the end of the
session he is, as rule, strapped. He then
borrows from his friends, and if he has not
sense enough to go back home, he degenerates
into ''dead beat" There is no place in the
world where "dead beatisC1" prevails to such
an extent as it does in Washington. You will
find about fifty men about each Of the lead
ing hotels in the course OF day who will ac-
cept drink from q man If be crooks his fin
ger, and more good natured set of seedy
looking fellows does not te1Ht.-Eew York

the copying of plays especially he found con-

times be WAS the prompeer, who thus added

Individuality in Carrying Umbrellas.

There is a curious thing which one mry
notice ON a rainy day. 1t is the way in which
the manner of carrying an umbrella reflects
the character of the individual Most men,
indeed, have stereotyped commonplace way
Of bearing that emblem of our civilization;
they grasp the umbrella by the louermost
extremity of It's handle, extending the thumb
upward On the inner side, and tipping the
umbrella backward little SO that consid-
cradle portion Of its weight bears upon this
thumb. This is very good way to carry an
umbrella, and the Listener, IN the course Of
toierabiy long walk in the rain this morn
ing, noticed that about four out of five men
carry it that way. The fifth is apt TO seize it
squarely about the handle, without any up
turned thumb; and, what is q rather unac-
countable thing, about four out of five wo-
men carry it in this way.
Why should men tend to stick up their
thumbs on umbrella handles while women
do nota The Listener will not undertake to
account for it any more than he will for the
fact, which he had also noticed, that the
male sex, which, ordinarily, is in all things
less perceptive and ssgacious than the female
sex, tends to project an umbrella in the drec-
ton from which the rain or the sun comes,
and thus get the maximum of protection for
the body, while women have tendency to
hold an umbrella or parasol in fixed direc-
ton always either straight up or else over
enc shoulder, permitting access to good
deal of storm and sun which might be e1-
cluded. The actual idiosyncrasies of indi-
viduals in the matter of carrying umbrellas,
however, are more easily accounted for.
Some individuals are bound to be very indi-
vidual and such have strictly individual
way of carrying an umbrella, as we'll as of
doing everything else. Some hold it with
grasp well toward the top of their heads. Some
put it back over their shoulders, and march
through crowd regardless OF consequent col
hsions. Others run to the opposite extreme,
and carry it edgewise, in order not to incom-
mode anybody, and so manage to get the ribs
of their umbrella entangled with the umbrel-
las and clothes Of half the passers by. And
Others put it away up in the air, in q lordly
way, above the tops Of all other umbrellas
