A contemptuous pity arose in me.

that you have still to DRESS
The gentle satire of my tone made
him look up and smile. His face
cleared, and he passed his hand over his
forehead, as though he swept it free OF
some unpleasant thought.

under his escort, giving me a laughing
nod of salutation as he left the room.
l watched his retiring figure with a
strange pitifulness-the first emotion of
the kind that had awakened in me for
him since | learned his treachery. His
illusion to that time when we had been
students together-when we had walked
with arms round each others necks
''like schoolgirls" as he said, had
touched me more closely than /

had been happy then - two careless
youths with all the world like an I'M
trodden race, course before US. She had
not then darkened the heaven of our con-
fidence; she had not come with her false
fair face to make of me a blind, doting
madmaA, and to transform him into a
liar and hypocrite. 1t was all her fault,
all the misery and horror; she was the
blight, on our lives; she .merited the
heaviest punishment, and she would re-
ceive it. Yet, would tossGod we had
neither Of US ever seen her! Her beauty,
like a sword, had severed the bonds of

when it does exist between two men, is
better and Drawer than the love Of
woman. However, all regrets were I'M

was no undoing it. l had little time left

conscious air of handsome man who

admitted his charm of manner; had
not myself been subjugated and fasci-
mated by it in the old happy, foolish
days? He was enthusiastically greeted
and welcomed back to Naples by all the

Farrari was engaged in replying to
these questions with his usual graceful
ease and iluencv. when note was
brought to me marked ''Imme-

elegantly worded apology from
Carlo ReSpetti, who regretted deep
ly that an unforeseen matter of busi-
ness would prevent himself and his
brother from having the inestmable
honour and delight of dining with me
that evening. l thereupon rang my bell
as sign that the dinner need no longer

able absence of two of the party.

The health of the town is by no
means good; the number of alb
sentees from school by reason of
sickness is serious both as to schol-
ars and teachers, and an epidemic
of dysentery or any other disease
brought on by foul drinking water
is not pleasant to consider. Pre-
vention is better than cure, there
fore let the Board of Education,
impelled thereto if necessary by
the Board of Health, provide
wholesome drinking water for the
schools.

Southern PROGRESS.

Superintendent Porter, of the
Census Bureau, shows that the
South is producing as much coal,
iron ore and pig iron now as the
whole United States produced in
1870, and he predicts an equally
marvellous progress of the South in
the manufacture of steel during the
coming decade.
The value of Southern agricuI-
tural products was two hundred
and fifty million dollars greater in
1889 than in 1879, while the rail-
road mileage during the same
period increased from twenty
thousand to forty thousand miles,
and the assessed value of property
doubled. Marvellous strides have
also been made not only in the pro-
duction but also in the manufacture
of the great Southern staple,
cotton.
In the opinion of Superintendent
Porter there is no more striking
aspect of the development of the
new South than the growth of
Southern cities. Birmingham,
which was unknown in 1870 and
had three thousand inhabitants in
1880, is now q iourishing city of
nearly thirty thousand. During
ten years the population of Chatta-
nooga has increased from twelve
thousand to twenty-nine thousand,
Little Rock from thirteen thousand
to twenty-five thousand, Knoxville
from nine thousand to forty thous-
and Atlanta from thirty-seven
thousand to sixty-fve thousand.
Roanoke, the northern gateway of
southwestern Virginia, which has
become one of the most important
coal and iron fields of the United
States, had no existence in 1880.

THE DAILY
DRINKING WATER FUR THE SCHOOLS.

We are entering upon period
of hot day weather. The water
supply is not likely to improve,
either in quantity or quality, dur
ing the remainder of this long
school term. The attention of the
Board of Education and of Health
needs to be called to the necessity
of providing the schools with nom
poisonous drinking water. The
pupils of Fort street school have
been cautioned by their teachers
not to drink water direct from the
taps, so what are they to do in
their long five hours school day, in
which they have to swallow, if
they can, the lunch they have
brought with them. II has been
retorted to request for filters that
the children themselves are not
accumstomed to filtered water and
only get the same at school as they
do at home. But this is only
pleading that the cells are accus-
toned TO be skinned and ought to
like it, If they do not, and more
over even this does not hold good
of Fort street school, for instance,
or OF the teachers anywhere.

Wild Disorder in the French
- Deputies.

y Deputies.
PARIS, May At was announced
yesterday that section of the Left
would join with the Socialist and
Boulangist Deputies in demanding
a vote of censure to-day against
Constans, the Minister of the In
terror, on the ground that the latter
is responsible for the slaughter OF
the men, women and children shot
down by troops at Fourmies on La
Dor day.
Constans, to-day, after replying
in explanatory terms to the ques-
ton as to the Fourmies affair and
giving his version of the matter,
holding that neither the Govern
or nor the troops were to blame
for the disaster, was astonished to
see Roche, the Deputy represent
ing the Seventeenth Electoral Dis
trict of the Seine, spring to his feet
and shout fiercely, Murderer! A
tremendous sensation followed.
Finally order was restored and
the Chamber voted that Roche
should be excluded from any fur
Their participation in to-day's ses,
sion, and that he should be declared
censured by the Chamber for the
term he had applied to the Minister
of the Interior.
No sooner was this action decided
upon than Roche again sprang to
his feet, and shaking his fist at
those of his associates who have
been most active in bringing about
his proposed expulsion and cen.
sure, the angry Deputy yelled
"You are a lot of varlets, worthy
of your master"
This was more than the presid
ing officer could submit to, so h'
ordered Roche removed by force
from the Chamber. This eventu
ally was done amid one of thu
widest scenes ever witnessed il
the Chamber of Deputies.
The Chamber then, by vote o
$50 to 33, declared it's confidence
in the Government Especial t.

COFFEE GROWING IN SOUTH AMERICA.

On the subject of coffee, the Hand
Book of the American Republics
tells Us that can astounding in
crease in consumption has lately
taken place in the United States,
where moro coffee is used, it is es-
timated, than in all the rest of the
world besides, although experts
say that American consumers are
not so particular about quality as
about the quantity. In 1890, coffee
was consumed in the United States
to the value of seventy millions OF
dollars, the quantity imported hav-
ing risen from four hundred and
ffty-fve millions of pounds in
1901 to five hundred and seventy
eight and one-third millions In 80
SO, the value being represented In
the earlier of these dates by $780,
784, 391, and in the latter s78.267,-
1872. an increase in value of twenty
one and nearly one half millions.
Of this quantity Brazil supplies
1913, 92O,s49 lbs. out of 578,3Q7. 454
lbs. total imports; of the rest the
various independent states of tropl-
cal America supply the larger por-
ton. followed by the Dutch East
Indies and the British East and
West Indian possessions. Hawaii,
with only 15,9O7 lbs, is the small.
lest contributor on list of thirty
one countries or groups. The cele-
brated Costa RIGA shows for only
seven and half million pounds.
No doubt here is grand OPEN
ing for Hawaii. Coffee consump-
ton is increasing in the United
States faster even than the popula-
ton, and Hawaii might we'll con-
tribute not only to provide the
quantity consumed, but to raise the
standard of quality as well. Some
really good Hawaiian coffee al
ways freshly roasted and skilfully
prepared would not fail to become
favorite beverage at the Worlds
Fair at Chicago, and the demand
unce Established w0u Id not be like
ly to fail very quickly.
The produce next in importance
to Hawaii referred to in the hanl
book, is bananas, of which we ar,
told that the banana is the mos
productive of the fruits of the
earth, being forty-four times more
productive than potatoes, and on,
hundred and thirty-one times NOR
productive than wheat.
| According to the table in tn
hand book, Hawaii supplied tn
United States with twenty-fou
dollars worth of bananas in 1873
and S90,993 worth in 1889. Their
must be some gorgeous error here
for the export tables IN Thrum'
Annual gives 60,046 lunches TO
the former year and 1858
punches for the latter, at all event
we are told that the United State
imported in 1890 bananas to tn
value of 81, 377, 1893, whereas in 1873
only 81, 920,178 were taken.

THE LEADER

Everyone who reads knows the result
of Don Quixute's battle with the wind
mills" Even though that cratic indi-
vidual had only the most primitive mills
to combat he found himself" done W"
on his first attempt to subdue that which
had aroused his ire; had he come IN
contact with an Aermotor it is probable
that he would have refrained from any
attempt to contest the ground with so
strong a machine. We can excuse him
cient style windmill, and could have
done 80 had he waited few years longer
and tackled the old fashioned wooden
mills which are now going rapidly out
of date, but there could be no excuse for
his desire to fight steel Aermotor. He
would not be in it.
Don Quixote's farce reminds us of the
attempts of some persons of to-day who,
with even greater confidence than the
Don, start in for a fight with the Aer-
motors. They buckle on their armor
and start out. only to end by adding to
the rapidly increasing popularity of the
Aermotor, The greatest windmill on
earth.''
We get new invoice of Aermotors
by each steamer and yet cannot
supply the demand for them. They are
recognized as the most powerful mill in
operation, and we do not hesitate to say
that within SIX months there will not be
| a single individual who needs a wind
| mill on these Islands who will buy any
other kind.
You have been told through the news
papers before that the mills are so light
in construction that gentle zephyr will
run them; so easy and perfect are those
we have seen in operation, and by a
letter recently received from purchaser
of an Aermotor we are almost tempted
to tell you now that they will run in a
dead calm. This would not be far
wrong for we have seen a 12-foot mill
revolve rapidly when there was not
enough wind to carry the smoke from
the stack of a steam engine only short
distance from the Aermotor. These are
facts much too hard for the manufac.
turers of other mills to fight. We enjoy
hearing the praises of other mills sung
because parties interested in windmills
make comparisons and then come to oul
store and select an Aermotor. HA.
