FROG RAISING.

A new industry has sprung up
latterly, which promises, we are told,
profitable results. 1t is frog raising.
A farm for this purposes at Mena-
sha, Wis, is in full! operation and
stocked with 1000 females, which
are capable of producing from 600
to 1000 eggs at time. The owner
of the farm gives some other inter-
esting facts relative to the frogs
habits which are not generally
known. He says: in ninety-one
days the eggs hatch. The thirty
ninth day the little animals begin to
have motion. In few days they
assume the tadpole form. When
ninety-two days old, two small feet
are seen beginning to sprout near
tail, and the head appears to be
separate from the body. In five
days after this they refuse all vege-
table food. Soon thereafter the ami
NAL assumes perfect form. Next
spring $4,000, at 20 cents per dozen,
will be my reward. Figure it your
self, says the enthusiastic frog
farmer, and see if there is any money

A NEW DISCOVERY.

We have reason to believe that a
discovery of equal Importance to
New Testament scholars with that
which gave CodeX AIeph to the
world has just been made. The ru-
NOR current in well informed quar-
ters credits the new find to Brycn-
MOS, the learned Archbishop of
Nicodemia. The completion of the
Epistle of Clement of Rome and the
unique manuscript of the Teaching
of the Apostles have made him fa-
nous for discoveries even in this age
of discovery. But if the rumor that
has come to us be true-and we
think there are good reasons for be-
lieving it to be sO-his name will be
more closely identified with the New
Testament itself. 1t is said that in
some Turkish library at Damascus
he has found manu- ipt of the
New Testament dating i.om about
the middle of the fourth century,
i. e., of the same antiquity as the
CodeX Sinaiticus. Indeed, some ap.
prehensions are felt whether it is
not altogether too much like the 81
naitic manuscript to be of the phe
nomenal Importance that another
totally independent manuscript O
the same age would be- Englisl

A TROUBLESOME CARGO.

Captain Sargent has just brought
the barque Margaret safely into
Boston from the West Coast of
Africa, after remarkable voyage.
Besides an ordinary cargo, he had
on board 400 parrots, gorilla, an
ourang-outang, twelve snakes, two
crocodlles, and number of mon
keys; and these animals gave him
more trouble than the fearful storms
against which he had to fight. The
ship was swarming with rats, which
devoured the corn provided for the
parrots, all Of which save four per-
ished. Then the snakes and croco-
diles escaped from the hold, and en-
tered the forecastle, possession Of
which was disputed by the rats.
This war ragged for five days, during
which the sailors were unable tUget to
their hunks and only ended when the
last of the snakes perished in an en-
counter with the surviving crocodiles,
whose career was cut short by some
falling timber. During the war in
the forecastle the monkeys escaped
to the rigging, from which all the
efforts of the sailors could not dis
lodge them. The wind and the sea,
however, proved too strong, and all
save four were swept overheard. =

A gentleman suggests feasible
arrangement for meeting the re-
quirements of the Fire Department
in the distant suburbs. For instance,
at Makiki and Waikiki, at central
points erect small and inexpensive
structures, for the storage of hose,
instruments for opening hydrants,
etc. Have several keys to the
structures, entrusted to different in
divituals living near by, so that at
the starting of fire someone will
be on hand that can gain access to
the necessary apparatus for con-
GuerIng it in its early stages. We
submit the suggestion for consider

WHAT A VOTER SAYS.

EDITOR BULLETIN -
A voter from koolau says, among
the election practices which the Re-
form candidate does to obtain the
votes of the people of Koolau, is to
hire and make use of the powers of
the kahunas (sorcerers).
During this week several pigs
were slaughtered to propitiate the
favor of the gods for Mr.. kaulukou
and TO frown upon Mr.. Bush and
bury him in oblivion. But | am glad
to say that missionary hatred and
Hawaiian superstition are apparently
of no avail against Bush this time.
This is probably the lcprosy or leper
spot of the Reform party which
Bush alluded to in his speech at ka-
neohe.
OF the three pigs roasted, one OF
them turned out half cooked, and
was looked upon with horror by the
candidate and his kahunas as a sure
sign of defeat. A stone dropped in
u basin of water which should have
floated as sign Of success failed to
rise.
How does these superstitious
practices by Reform candidate
agree with the principles of the
main portion of the party? More

the PROPOSED BOUNTY ON SUGAR.

The Chronicle says the only hope
for beet-sugar production in this
State is that offered by the Mckln-
ley bill, which offers bounty Of
two cents pound on all native
sugars. If this were true we might
say good-by TO the beet-sugar indus
try. This Congress cannot bind the
next one to pay a bounty, and it is
extremely improbable that q system
which selects a single industry from
all others and makes it the source
of tax on other industries can be
sustained. Farmers who are raising
corn at a small profit will naturally
object to being taxed to help the
beet-sugar producers to meet ex-
penses. If we protect the beet-sugar
industry by tax on foreign sugar,
we place that industry in line with
other industries. The protected in
dustries would naturally stand by
each other, but what interest would
be likely to stand by an industry
which took money from the public
treasury? Our contemporary advo.
Gates free sugar for the reason that
it will put the Hawaiian planters on
an equality with other sugar-plant-
ers. Taken by itself there is GER
tain plausibility in the argument,
bat the fact is well known that the
chef inducement to enter into a
reciprocity treaty with the Hawaiian
Islands was to maintain American
commercial ascendancy in those
islands. The treaty in this respect
has been successful. The islands
have been kept from drifting into
the hands of another nation. The
Monroe doctrine would not permit
the occupation of those islands by
4 European power; but if they had
formed the same commercial rela-
tions with Great Britain that they
have with the United States, an
ugly question would arise in the
diplomatic horizon. The United
States imports from these islands
about 24O, ,00O,0 900 pounds of sugar.
This is in round numbers one-seventh
of our entire consumption and but
two-thirds of our home production.
So far the free importation of lla-
waiian sugar has not affected the
price Of sugar in this market The
amount of the import duty has been
added to the export price in the
islands, SOM what as the amount of
the duty taken from coffee was
added TO the export price of that
article. What the United States
really loses is the revenue that would
be derived from the 24O, 600, 900
pounds Of Hawaiian sugar if the
duty had been retained. The sum
is considerable, but against it we
have to balance the advantage OF
our present close relations with the
islands and of the increased trade
that has grown up under the treaty.
If the present duties on sugar sheult
be retained and Hawaiian sugar be
admitted free as at present, it is eX'
tremely improbable that the Hawai-.
ian planters would give up the hand
some profit they now make in sugar
to crush out the beet-sugar industry
in the Pacific Coast States :. f

Somebody has discovered that
watercress is an antidOte to tobacco
or nicotine poisoning, or rather, that
it destroys the toxic power Of "thc
weed" without damaging its other
properties. If tobacco he moisten-
ed with the juice of watercress it
loses all its deleterious effects. |
am afraid most smokers prefer to
moisten it with juice of another
kind but this a hint to smokers
who are also teetotallers.
