An OH Painting,

For the last two weeks there has been
on exhibition in King Bros. store, Ho-
tel street, an oil painting of Durham
OK standing by stream of water. It il
the work of Mr.. Joseph Tinker, proprie-
tor OF the City Meat Market, Nuuanu
street, and is highly creditable to him.
The animal is perfect in every respect,
and both it and the background are
painted with all the dash of a profess
sional artist It is more for amusement
that Mr.. Tinker paints than anything
else. The walls of his house are hung
all over with pictures OF his own paint
ing, and the handsome sign over his
store was done by him.

WHO WROTE SHAKESPEARE !?
How the Element OF - Doubt" Leads
to Grand Achievements.

The world is agitated again over the
question OF who was the author OF Shake
speare's plays.
The world is full of doubling Thomases.
The man who has been successful in
exciting the present mementary interest
in the subject is, like most successful
agitators, an Irishman. He claims to
have discovered a cipher running
through the Shakespearian plays which
proves them to have been written by
Lord Bacon It is also claimed that
there is cipher in the epitaph on the
moss-grown tombstone, which, properly
interpreted, leads to the same con-
clusiOn.
This age shows a decided inclination
to pry into mysteries.
1t can make no difference to Shake
speare now whether the world believes
he wrote the plays which bear his name
or not.
The plays are immortal.
Ignatius Donnelly cannot rob US of
these grand works, even though he should
succeed in robbing Shakespeare of his
glory.
Were it not for doubling Thomases
many of mans great accomplishments
would never have been brought to sue
cessful issue.
Men have been stricken down without
warning. Doubt put in motion the in
vestigation which ascertained the cause.
After the discovery OF the cause, the
world was ignorant OF any remedy with
which to stay the terrible slaughter of
humanity, and medical science said it
was impossible. Doubt led the way to
the light, and Warmers safe cure solved
the seemingly unsolvable problem. It's
friends tell us with conclusive proof that
the unsupported kidney disease befouls
the blood and causes most of our dis
cases.
For years the heart was looked upon
as the most important organ in the body,
but doubt led to further inquiry, which
developed the fact that the kidneys are
the real blood purifiers of the system
and these organs now attract the first
attention of the careful practitioner. 1t
is now recognized fact that if they are
put in healthy state by the use OF that
remedy, possessing such wonderful cura
tive and cleansing powers, most of the
prevailing diseases of the system will be
easily overcome, since their cause will
be removed
How unimportant, in comparison with
such problems, is the present discussion
as to the authorship of Shakespeare!

what they are sure always to hunger for,

The Tables Turned.
Georgia Cor. Chicago Herald

A story has just come to light here which
affords much amusement to the natives at
the expense of three Boston dudes, whose
connection with the opening of Georgia
marble quarry has brought them here
They have had much amusement with
mountain hoosiers and delighted in showing
of their superior accomplishments. While
on the way to Tates they met two harmless
looking country boys, who, barefooted and
with but one suspender over their shoulders,
were trudging to town. The BostOnians
stopped in front of them and ordered them
to dance to a Massachusetts, juba. When
the mountaineers became satisfied that the
Bostonians were in earnest they pulled out
two ugly looking revolvers and changed the
programme by ordering the dudes to dance.
Thinking to humor the joke, and thus escape
easily, they danced awhile. but the boys
would not let them halt. For five hours,
under cover of the revolvers, the Bostonians
danced such jig as has never been seen.
When the time was up one of the mountain
GERS exclaimed: Now, dang it, runi" The
Bostonians were only too glad to do so. and

ACCORDING to NJ. Besnier, a member
OF the Paris Academy of Medicine, lep-
rosy, far from disappearing by degrees,
is spreading rapidly. Since the extern
sion OF the French colonial possessions,
soldiers, sailors, traders and missionaries
have fallen victims to it in large num-
bers. NJ. Besnier, therefore, exhorts
physicians in all countries to study the
fell disease, in order to find a means OF
counteracting its ravages, for it has
active focuses of infection in every part
OF the globe. The malady is transmitted
by bacillus shaped like that found in
tuberculosis.

In q recent number of the Pleasures
of Life" published in London, Sir John
Lubbock says: l have been subjected
to some good-natu-ed banter for having
said that I looked forward to a time
when our artisans and mechanics would
be great readers. But it is surely not
unreasonable to regard our social con-
dition as susceptible of great improve
ment. The spread of schools, the cheap
ness OF books, the establishment of free
libraries will, it may be hoped, exercise
q ciVilizing and ennobling influence.
They will even, believe, do much to
diminish poverty and suffering, so much
of which is due to ignorance and to the
want Of interest and brightness in uned-
ucated life. So far as our elementary
schools are concerned, there is no doubt
much difficulty in apportioning the Ma
tional Grant without unduly stimulating
mere mechanical instruction. But this
is not the place to discuss the subject of
RELIGIOUS or moral training, or the svs-
tenn of apportioning the grant. If we
succeed in giving the love OF learning,
the learning Itself is sure to follow. We

SENATOR PALMER, of Michigan, will in
troGuce in the Senate at the earliest pos
sible opportunity after the organization
of that body a bill prepared by him for
the purpose of regulating and restrict
ing immigration to the United States by
keeping out persons who seem likely to
be undesirable citizens. The principal
feature of the bill is provision which,
# it becomes law, will require every per-
son of foreign birth who contemplates
emigration to the United States to pro-
vide himself with certificate from the
United States Consul for the district of
his residence, "setting forth substantially
that the said Consul is satisfied upon
diligent inquiry that he is suitable and
desirable person for residence and citi-
zenship in the United States" Immi-
grants of foreign birth not provided with
such certificates shall not be allowed by
the United States immigration officers to
land in that country.

much better results Classic literature is

progress five times rapidly without the
eighty, while the latter can be more prOfta-

have the inclination. The tendency to study
the literature of our own language is growing,
and students find there is much that is beau
