CHIMNEY CURTAIN.

A handsome chimney curtain to hang
across the fireplace where there is no fire.
place under the shelf, is made as follows
Take stripes of blue cross-stitch canvas,
twelve and one-fourth inches wide, and
stripes of old red plush, five inches wide,
united by drawn stripes of heavy white
linen, the seams being concealed by rows
of bars. The plush stripes are left
plain, the rich pile needing no decoration;
the canvas ones are ornamented with II
cross-stitch border in red white and gold.
The design is worked with coarse en-
broidery cotton, or twist and gold thread,
each stitch being crossed over two threads
each way. The drawn thread stripes have
a clean linen ground, and are worked al
ternately with red and blue threads. The
cross-bar row beside the red stripe is blue,

trimmed at the lower edge with a fringe
knotted of blue and red cotton. The
knotting is as follows: Twored and seven
blue double threads, nine and one-half
inches long, are looped in alternately to
the half, so that four red and fourteen
blue double threads are formed. The
red knotting threads are united by a chain
of single buttonhole knots, while the blue
ones form pointed ribs of knots, and then
also seven chains of buttonhole knots.

WHERE THE APPLE BLOSSOMS
BLOW.
Meet me where the apple blossoms blow.
Softly now the fragrant boughs are swing
ing.
Greet me when the moon begins to glow.
And in the pines the whippoorwills are sing
ing.
With loyal heart a beat,
oh, haste with flying feet
And shame the sluggish hours that wing too
slow.
The day was long and dreary.
My heart is worn and weary.
| count the laggard moments as they go,
Love.
Oh.
Meet me where the apple blossoms blow.
Meet me where the apple blossoms blow;
Let the floating petals fake your tresses,
Breathing us benison below.
Growing our bethrothal with caresses.
Far in the upper deep,
The stars are now a-peep,
The drowsy river murmurs in its flow.
hear its voice repeating
'Life's blossom-time is fleeting"
All! let us catch the fragrance ere it CO.
Love.
Oh,
Meet me where the apple blossoms blow

The latest fad of the famous manufac-
turer, food reformer and politico-econo-
mist of Boston, Edward Atkinson, is the
production of new, cheap and whole
some food from such cereals as oat and
corn meal, raw wheat, barley and rye
The material is cleaned, steam cooked
and pressed into blocks. Out of these
he proposes to make dishes that will en-
able a man to live well at cost of dime
day. He has also invented number
of cookers, wherewith housekeeper can
prepare the daily dishes of family at an
expense for fuel of three or four cents q
day.

The young Apache children taken to
the Ramona school, at Santa Fe, New
Mexico, promises to soon adopt the way .
of civilization. The only way to tam ,
the Apache, asserts the San Francisc }
Chronicle, is to begin with the children,
and it is doubtful whether much advanc ,
will be made with these il they are per-
mitted to return to their parents. 1t is
to be hoped that some idea of regular
work may be impressed upon these young
savages, for this is the first step in any
permanent redemption from their old
life

1t is rumored that New York thinks of
celebrating the landing of Columbus all
by herself. "Such show in 1892
would, in the estimation of the New
Orleans Picayuae, abe serious blow to
Chicago's fair the following year. The
idea is for New York to get up big ju-
bilee with lot of ancient looking YES
sells. There would be many picturesque
effects. Columbus and his followers
would have to be gorgeously dressed in
order to attract the crowd, but as the
Indians in the show would require no
costumes at all, the expense would not
be much"

Possibly to show how fertile the
French soldier is in the way of resource,
NJ. Edmond de Goncourt relates the fol-
lowing sensational incident in the fourth
volume of his "Journal, Just printed;
"During the Franco-Prussian war the
wheel of gun got out of order, and an
artillery officer directed that it should
be creased. Being unable to find any
grease, one of the gunners went up to a
'slovenly, unhandsome corpse, split the
skull with his AK, took out the brains
and clapped them, all hot, on the wheel.
This is very horrible, if true, and is
very powerful if it be fiction, and might
be recommended to Rider Haggard.

Educational Matters.

Mr.. EDITOR: / note that an edi-
torial in the Elele which has q
Johnstonian ring about it, abuses
Mr.. Smith. Secretary of the Board
of Education, because he allows
himself to be called Hon.
AS / understand it Mr.. Smith is
q member of the Privy Council, and
as such is fully entitled to the pre-
fix. 1 do not see that it is necessary
for him to resign on that account.
Perhaps our Johnstonian friend
would like to step into his shoes.
I doubt if he could fill the bill, or
that the public would approve the
appointment. By the way, | asked
our school agent here whether there
was any truth in the statement
made in the Legislature that dis
elimination was made against ma
tives in the amounts allowed for
their transportation to the conven-
ton at Honolulu. He states that
he knows of no such discrimination
being made. In this District all
teachers were allowed the same
amount, S13 each. This would in.
dictate how ready some people are
to believe every floating rumor.

the appraisement is made al claimed

the appraisement is made az claimed
by the Government.
The law is silent upon this ques-
ton. There is much justice in the
claim OF the Government that the
land has increased in value since the
award was made and the occupier
has enjoyed the use OF the Govern
ment's share therein without pay
during these thirty and over years,
and as the occupier has neglected TO
commute the Government interest
when land values were low, the Gov
eminent should have the benefit OF
the unearned increase in value.
There is principle Of law which
we think should control in this mat
ter. The uniform practice OF the
Government has been to accept In
Communication of its rights in an
awarded land one-third Of the unim-
proved value of the land at time the
award was made. The principle OF
law is that I'm the construction OF Q
doubtful and ambiguous law the
contemporaneous construction OF
those who were called upon to act
under the law and were appointed to
carry its provisions into effect Is en-
titled to great respect, and the Court
refuses to interfere with such con-
struction after it has been acted upon
for long time" Bell Telephone VS.
Mutual Telephone, Haw. AGO, and
| cases there cited. The construction
put upon the law by the Executive
Department need not be a formal
one, but if it has been followed with
out challenge for u long series Of
years it becomes practical con
struction. In this case before III
where the statute was silent, anc
hence doubtful on the point, thu
public had right to assume that thu
rule adopted at the time the Act Wal
put in force would continue to be TIT
principle regulating the comuuta
ton.
We also think that this law shoult
be literally construed in favor OF
confirmed claimant, and hold tina
the value of the land at the time o
the award should be the basis Of it
appraisement for communication.

We do not say that this is the
fault of the Committee. They have
apparently been very diIigent, and
very likely have done quite as we'll
as any one else would have under
the circumstances. This does not
alter the fact that the public are
disappointed, and that the long
and costly investigat on has proved
a totally fruitless one.
The House has re-referred the
matter this time to the Judiciary
Committee. Rep. Nawahi, who is
a member of that committee, as

that he can unravel the whole
mystery, and uneatth the offenders

will therefore be expected with

cause it is particularly likely really
to bring out anything new, but be

HAWAIIAN OPERA HOUSE.

The TIvoli Gaiety Company Play Two
Pieces with Much Satisfaction to the
Audience.
There was very good audience at
the Hawaiian Opera House Satur-
day evening when the Tivoli Gaiety
Company played the farce " Jeal-
ousy, or the Kiss +" and the farce
comedy in two acts, Forbidden
Fruit" III. r. III. Princess Liliuoka-
lani and Hon. j. o. Dominis occupied
seats in the royal box. In the farce, Mr..
Dorsey Ogden as Selim Pettibone
had a part that just suited him, and
afforded him the very best opportu-
nifty for the display of his ability.
It was one of the best bits of legiti-
mate comedy acting witnessed here.
MIR. Gates as Frank Fathom was very
satisfactory. Miss Barr as " Mary"
who said Yes, SIR" to every ques-
ton, did her part well. The farce
was quite amusing:
The first act of forbidden Fruit"
opens in the Office of the "Daily
Blizzard" the editors, Victor Jordan
Harry Bell and Henry Buster
Harry Gates scheming to get away
from their wives for night. These
two gentlemen presented their re-
spective parts with much ability, and
won frequent plaudits from the au-
dience. Mrs. Victor Jordan Miss
Barr and Mrs. Henry Buster Miss
Courtney were both we'll carried
throughout. Miss Carmen as Lola
the singer whose voice we should
like to have heard was excellent
Mr.. Hamilton took the part of Capt
Armstrong and acquitted himself in
the most creditable manner. In the
first act he gave a most delightful
song, the rich tones of his massive
bass voice filing the house. He was
enthusiastically eneored. Harry
Corners as Wang Bang made 6
capital Chinaman, and p. Wallace as
Adolphe the French waiter created
much amusement. MIR. Berger and
his orchestra played acceptably dur
ing the evening. Both pieces were
creditably staged, and played to the
thorough satisfaction of the audi
ence
A few more such plays, few more
such performances as were giver

might feel they were not abusing
their time and intelligence by go
ing to see-might not be amiss.

OPINION OF THE COURT, PER JUDD, c. J.
This is a submission of case
without action under the 1140th sec
ton of the Civil Code.
The facts agreed upon are
1st- The Papaikou Sugar Com
pany, corporation, is the owner OF
the Ahupuaa of Papaikou on the
Island of Hawaii The said ahupuaa
is that awarded to Aarona Keliiaho-
nui being Apana of l.. g. A. 11,215.
ID. The boundaries having been
settled in accordance with the law
and the commissioners OF apprsise
ment having appraised the value of
said land at two thousand dollars,
being the value at the date of the
award, said Papaikou Sugar Com
pany made an application for the
issuance of a patent. The necessary
papers having been found In order,
the Minister of the Interior refused
to grant the said patent unless the
communication to be paid for said land
should be based upon its value at the
date of the application for the issu-
ance of such patent, which PROPOSE
ton the Papaikou Sugar Company
refused to entertain, and demands
that it be issued upon a commute
ton based upon the said valuation OF
| $4,000.
ISSUE IN THE CASE.
It is claimed by the Minister Of
the Interior that the valuation of the
land for basis of payment of the
communication due the Government
should be the value of the land al
the date of the application for ,
patent.
It is claimed by the said appli
cants for patent that the basis o.
communication must be that fixed 10y
the commissioners of appraisement
that is, at the date of the award.

THE DAILY
MONDAY,

THERE are two bills now being
considered in committee which
have excited great deal of I'M
necessary opposition. We refer to
the Acts to change the places of
holding the Second and Third Judi
cial Circuits.
The principles which ought to
determine action in cases of this
kind are perfectly simple. Courts
are simply business agencies and
they ought to follow the course Of
public business When, through
commercial causes, business is
transferred from one town or dis
trict to another, the Courts should
follow. For reasons too obvious to
need stating, Courts should be held
in centres of population and &C
tivity. If q town has lost it's i'm
portance, it is useless to attempt to
support or revive its forgotten
glories by making it a judicial seat.
If these simple principles are
granted, it becomes very SIMPLE
matter to determine where the
terms of Court should be held. The
report of the Chief Justice fur
nishes precise statistical evidence,
showing just where the business OF
the Courts comes from. That re-
port shows that Lahaina has be.
come of as little judicial as com
mercial importance, while Waikiki
is constantly growing. The conclu-
sion is very clear that Lahaina is
no longer proper place for hold
ing the Third Judicial Circuit. The
facts are substantially the same
with regard to Waimea, Hawaii.

The report of the Opium Com
mittee was q very lame and impo.
tent conclusion to what was sup
posed to be an important investiga-
ton, promising results of some I'M
portance. The Committee, after
doing more work, it is said, than a
Legislative Committee often does,
examining an enormous number OF
witnesses and taking down so much
evidence that the House could not
afford to print it nor any one to
