America is seldom experienced IN
any portion Of our isolated islands.
For these reasons we have great
reason to be thankful for our eli
mate, and to regard il as one of the
Hawaiian permanent and profitable
resources which will assuredly be
the handspring of future prosperity;
whether we regard it as a means of
enjoyment and a promoter of health,
or as a chief factor IN the growth of
such products as form the basis Of
our foreign trade.
If there is anything more than an
other that Hawaii nei can boast of,
it is its glorious climate; and we
feel as if we could parade its excel
lence before the world, and chal-
lenge the best favored portions OF
the globe to produce its equal for
beauty, utility, health or recreation

siOners were not specially instructed
as to the representation the treaty
powers may have in the local gov
eminent Of the islands, but they
were directed to insist that such
representation should be absolutely
equal and impartial.
The question Of the restoration Of
the status quo ante was quite fully
located IN the instructions. The
commissioners were to use every
effort to bring about an agreement
embracing this resolution.
The point was most strongly con
tended for by Bayard, and Blaine
appreciated fully its vital import
ance, believing that but little real
good can be accomplished until the
unwarranted steps taken by Ger

OUR CLIMATE.

AS an illustration of the suitability
of the Hawaiian climate for outdoor
labor and physical exercise, we may
instance the baseball matches and
horse-racing sports that are now at
their height, although it is midsum-
mer and near the longest day Of the
wear. Several of these games are
being played each week, without any
signs of fatigue on the part of the
players, and unattended by the per
spiration noticeable on the faces of
those engaged in similar sports IN
the United States at this season,
The Hawaiian Kingdom is within
the tropics; but, the cooling inhu-
ence of the northeast trade winds
offsets the more direct effect OF the
suns rays, apd the heavy and sultry
weather usual during midsummer in

A private letter from Mr.. E. p.
Adams, of Boston, Mass, says that
the position of American Minister
Resident at Honolulu has been
offered to Mr.. Charles E. Perkins, of
Hartford, Conn, and declined by
him. Mr.. Perkins is an uncle by
marriage Of Mrs. S. B. Dole of this
city, and a prominent and successful
lawyer. The fact that the Office has
been offered to HIM would indicate
that the President intends to select
a gentleman Of well-known ability
and fitness to represent the Amer.
lean nation at Hawaii.

The Good g pnke DOCTOR

His Royal Highness, DR.. Charles Theo-
dore, Duke of Bavaria, assisted by his
wife and by DR.. Won Zenker, has been for
eight weeks freely treating eye-patients
among the poor of Moran. That we'll
known health resort of the Austrian Tyrol
is now year by year frequented by crowds
Of the humble class of patients who arc
afflicted by diseases of the visual organs,
attracted thither By the cure or allevia-
ton they gratuitously receive at the hands
of His Royal Highness. Just before the
Whitsunside recess no fewer than 1861
of these had been under treatment, in
which the chief share was borne by the
''Duke Doctor, as ne is Familiarity called,
while the Duchess performed the part of
nurse and general benefactrcss. In 1875
cases he had recourse to operation, with
unusually satisfactory results, among
which may be noted the cure of sixty
eight persons suffering from cataract, to
all of whom their eyesight was success
fully restored. In these last His ROYAL
Highness Acknowledges the cooperation
of his assistant, Dr. Won Zenker, whose
skill in ophthalnic disease has recon-
mended him for the post. The mining
and pastoral population around the Te-
gern-See welcomed their ''Duke Doctor"
and his consort on their return among
them with the most touching demonstra-
lions Of affection and esteem-demonstra-
tions, however, not more cordial than
those Of the Tyrolese poor, whose graft
tude they had earned by benefactions in
the power Of few to bestow.-Neso York

Trnins Engineers Dislike to Ram.

said al old railway engineer the other
day;
''There are three kinds of trains that
do not want to have anything to do
with. One is the pay train. You never
know when you will overtake the section
hands. You viii be going at the rate of
forty miles an hour, away you go around
a curve. and you viii dash by the boss
and hands and have to back back to
them. There is always good deal of
talk over the wages, and much time is
taken 10. The next unpleasant train to
handle IS an excursion train. Every one
living along the line of road knows you
from seeing you come by every day, and
they think you know them as well. When
on excursion they presume upon their
friendship to endeavor to ride on the
engine. No other place will do them.
The engineer has to refuse them, as it
would amount to docking his wages from
thirty to sixty days if they complied, as
it is positively against the rules of the
road The persons denied the privilege
always feel hard about it, and loo!z upon
the engineer as accommodating. The
last and worst of all, however, is the
officers train. If you run slow they say
you are scared and fear to run fast. If
you make good time they say you are
careless and reckless, and want to kill
somebody. You can't suit them. -

ART OF COOKING VEGETABLES.

Vegetables form = most agreeable and
useful part of our daily food, and they
should be made the object of greater
study than they usually are They should
be dressed with taste as well as care. The
fresher all green vegetables are the more
wholesome. When they are so they
break or snap crisply, but should they
bend without breaking, or have a wilted
appearance they are stale.
Soft water IS much the best to use for
cooking vegetables, if pure and clean,
but if hard water is used have it freshly
drawn and put in little soda to soften.
Nearly all vegetables should be thorough
" cooked and are spoiled if either over
or under done. Those young and ten
der require less time than those more
matured.
Green vegetables with some exceptions
should be cooked in plenty of sailed
.Ssster. putting them in at its first boil.
The quantity of salt to be used is a large
tablespoon to one gallon of water. All
vegetables are done as soon as tender
and should be Immediately taken up and
drained in a colander.
Onions should be soaked in salted warm
water previous to cooking to partly re-
move any strong odor they may possess.
Peas, string-beans and green corn should
not be prepared for cooking until about
ready to be used
Turnips, carrots and onions should
not be split, but sliced in rings across, as
hey cook thus sooner.
A very small bit of red pepper put in
The water in which either meat or vege-
tables are boiled will, to some extent,
ceodorize the steam and save the disa-
sreeable odor arising from cabbage,
onions, etc.
Potatoes should be pealed as thinly as
possible, as the better part lies nearest
the skin.-Ne,0 York Pres.

HOW Chameleons Fight.

As soon as the chameleons catch sight
of each other they remain perfectly still
for moment. Then they nod their
heads up and down three or four times,
as if to work themselves up to the right
pitch for a fight. Give seen chickens do
the same thing manga time.) Then they
swell out their dewlap, or throat pouch,
until it becomes a beautiful light scarlet.
All this while their color is constantly
changing in a manner marvellous to be-
hold. Before they saw each other both
wore a gay golden-green coat and a white
shirt bosom, tinted with green, but in an
instant this holiday attire vanishes and
they don their fighting suits one after an
other, dark brown, light brown, olive
green, slate color, some plain, some
spotted but the putting out of the dewlap
Is the last of these preliminaries, and
now, like a fash, the tussle begins. And
such tussle it Is, to be surel No fun or
play about it, only deadly earnest. I
have watched these Lilliputian combats
more than one; one especially I recall
between two unusually fine specimens,
regular anolis dudes, and a fair lady q
suspect she was at the bottom Of the
trouble, too sat on leaf close by and
looked calmly on, ready, no doubt, to
Street, the victor with sweet smile.
The antagonists seized each other by
the jaws-their teeth are very thin, Just
big enough to feel rough to ones finger
but they managed to hold on to each
other, and then their heads moved to and
fro, their long tails lashed, they advanced
and retreated up and down the stem of
the evening jessamine, which they had
selected as their battle ground, and for
ten minutes they kept hard at it, their
dewlaps swelled like beautiful scarlet
balls, their hues constantly changing,
their whole aspect instinct with rage and
determination.
At the end of that time one of them
had lost half of his tail, but he fought
bravely on until another sharp jerk de-
prived him of the remaining half That
was the ''drop too much;" he did not
"turn tail and run, simply because he
had none to turn, but he did run as fast
as he could go, leaving the victor to
swallow the writing stump of his tail,
which he did with evident enjoyment.
The conquered hero escaped the same
fate only by flight, for it is the fashion
among the anolis tribes to devour their
conquered enemy.-Philadelphia Times.
