Sad and DisgracefuI.

A native girl under legal age was ar
raigned in the Police Court on Wednes-
day, for the third offense of deserving
her parents. Justice Dayton, with
manifest reluctance, agreed to the dis
tressed mothers opinion that imprison-
ment might have a restraining effect
upon the recalcitrant child. He there
fore sent her over for five days, the
costs added making it week. The
girl wore countenance of stolid uncon-
Germ at her degradation. There is sad
history to this child's case, with vile
foreigner and round sum of filthy cash
at the back OF it. The authorities have
thus far been baffied in tracing up the
miscreant, but they claim to know the
hackman who figured In the outrage.
In that case they should summary
have his license cancelled, and if pos
sible have him banished from the
Kingdom. The Chinese are not singu-
lar in corrupting the fountains of Ha-
waiian society, there being scope for a
radical moral crusade among races that
presume a monopoly OF the virtues.

A very select audience gathered to
hear Mrs. Florence Williams Friday even
ing at Harmony Hall. The lecture, al
though delivered extemporaneously,
with occasional citations from the poem,
was characterized by very rich and
copious command of language, and a
complete and easy mastery in the
thought. Mrs. Williams is a marvel
ously ready speaker, and last nights
discourse was q model, from the purely
evolutionary point of view. The audience
was both deeply interested and enter
tanned The lecturer began by enquiring
what is the secret of the wonderful
success of this poem? Sonorous, flowing
and melodious in its verse, it makes no
claim to creative energy, yet it has sold
by the thousand and tens of thousands,
editions de luxe, and eight cent copies,
Decidedly below the level of Plato's
scheme Of thought, it is read by every
one where Plato is read or read through
only by scholars. The lecturer proceed
ed to sketch the contents of the poem
the story of Prince Gautama, his royal
nurture in q palace, in the n6dst OF
pomp and splendor; of his final discov-
cry of sin, sorrow, and death; the
abandonment of throne and wife which
followed, with his retirement into the
forest to spend years in the search for
deliverance-the deliverance of life from
the curse. The years which he spent in
moral darkness were wildly described,
the partial explanations which he re-
jected, one after one; the light which
came to him at last. In this story is
found the explanation of the wonderful
success of this book. The thoughts of
Plato are subtitle and speculative, not SO
these practical thoughts of Buddha.
They present the straight path Of light
to Nirvana. We love Buddha because
he was q lover of mankind.

Although the feats were not new to those

by his rapid work and quaint, spright-
ly, foreign accents. Some of the sleight

ance in the cabinet was lightning-like in
celebrity. Prof. Canaris will likely have

A Beautiful Tree.

One of the finest blooming trees of the
numerous exotics growing in the city is
the catharta carpos, which will impress
any person who sees it for the first time
as not only beautiful but very remark
able. When the tree is in good soil, the
shoots of the previous year, which are
often six or eight feet long, are com
pletely surrounded with light pink flow
ers, making the appearance OF the limb
that of long kahili. There are several
in bloom now, but the largest and most
striking is in the front yard OF Captain
Babcock's residence on Piikoi street, two
or three blocks above Beretania street
1t presents sight which will repay a
visit from those who have never before
seen the catharta in bloom.
