lighter of the two.
Quite an accident and one which. as
luck would have it, was all but fatal,
occurred near the depot Monday after
noon. The victim Of the misfortune. to
judge from a scrap of paper found in his
clothes, was man by the name of Wage
from Madelia. During the afternoon
he had taken too much of that which is
said to 60 to mans head, and at about
i've o'clock he started for home in what
IS commonly called a paraiyzed condi-
ton. He first drove down Centre Street.
and crossed the track near the CITY mill.
Here he fell from the wagon, but WITH
out sustaining any injuries. After he
had been replaced in the wagon, the
team took course around the stock
yards and again crossed the track, where
he was once more thrown out. This
time..h his head struck one of the rails.
and when picked up he was in an un-
conscious condition and bleeding pro-
fusely. Fortunately for him the team did
not run away, for when he fell his feet
were entangled in the lines and one Of
the wheels. he was taken to the hos
pital at once and under the treatment
OF Dr.. Phster soon recovered from his
drunk and regained consciousness.

or o0 variety. Consequently, il is
easier to travel over the floor of the
crater than formerly, when it was
more broken up. The path, too, has
been much improved by the resident
manager, Mr.. Lee. Good walkers
can now make the trip from the lava
lake to the Hotel in from forty-fiye tS
fifty minutes, with the guide under
"quick step' orders.
Whatever the future of Kilauea
may be, as to its form and general
characteristics, whether it shall cease
to be pit crater, as it now is, and
shall assume the form of summit
crater, which some think it may be-
come during the next century, one
thing is quite certain, it was never in
acondition or shape better fitted to
display its grand and incompatible
beauty, in all the various changes of
molten lava, than now; and there
has never been time when it was
more accessible to sight-seers, with no
risk to life or limb.
The following persons were at the
Volcano Hotel at the time of the
writer's visit there: E. J. Wythes,
Reginald E. Walker, V. P. Bluecow,
George Fyfe, M. D., John A. Long

wife, of Hilo; Judge F. S. Lyman and
III. G. Austin, of Hilo; and all of
those who visited the burning lake
express but one opinion regarding it
that it surpasses all conception or
description.

True To Life.

An italian paper II Carlino, recalls
a practical joke that appeals to our
sympathy as we'll as to our sense of
humor. A painter had been commits
stoned to paint the image OF saint
on the refectory wall of a convent.
The price stipulated was very low,
but it was agreed that the painter
should have his meals provided at
the expense of the convent until the
work was finished. But the only
food supplied to the poor artist was
bread, onions and water. The day
for unwilling the fresco at length ar
rived. The friars stood round the ar
fist, the curtain was removed. Tt
was no doubt a fine picture, but the
saint had his back turned toward the
spectators.
''What does this mean?'' shouted
the indignant prior.
Padre" was compelled to paint
the picture as you see it, for the saint
could not bear the smell Of onions.''

Labrador'S Lofty Waterfall,

Though inner Labrador is made
quately known, we are aware that it
is a vast table land whose limits are
quite clearly defined. In the south
east the descent from the table land
is quite sudden, and almost immedi-
ately after leaving the plateau a level
is reached that is very little above
that of the sea. The Grand falls are
the place where the Grande river tum-
bles over the edge OF this tableland,
and almost the whole of the great
drop is effected in this one descent.
Professor Hind gives the height ofthls
plateau as $3.50 feet. It has been
estimated that the region at the foot
OF the falls is only 200 feet above sea
level, and that the waters of Grand
river have q perpendicular descent OF

DO Little Men Eat More than Big?

Mldgets have excellent appetites, as
rule. Tom Thumb ate more than
Chang, the Chinese giant. Any of the
little folks will eat as much dinner as
a man six feet high. Giants, as a rule,
have small appetites. When Chang,
was boarded at one of the large hotels
IN Chicago they thought he would eat
good deal, and so they charged him
as much as if he were three men. In
stead OF going through the bill of fare
from beginningto end and then repeat
ing, ne ate no more than the average
ooarder. 1t took three beds, however,
to make one for him to sleep in.
A very grotesque-looking South
American dwarf, who used to be ex-

guage, who fed on raw meat, and who
was incapable even of understanding

It would be sweet to think when we are old
OF all the pleasant days that came to pass:
That here we took tie berries from the
grass,
There charmed the bees with pans, and
smoke unrolled,
And spread the melon nets when nights
were cold,
Or pulled the blood-rootin the nderbrush,
And marked the ringing of the tawny
thrush. N
While all the west was broken burning
gold.
And so l bind with rhymes these men,

AS girls press pansies in the poets leaves
And lind them atterward with sweet sur
prise;
Or treasure petals mingled with perfume,
Loosing. them in the days when April
grieves:

Raising a sunken Steamer.

The raising Of the steamship Utopia,
which sank in Gibraltar Bay after
collision with II. M. S. Arson, was ef-
fected by means of cofferdams erected
on q superstructure OF timber con-
structed from the ships sides to the
surface OF the water, thus forming an
immense tank, lined with strong Can
vas, 31ft, in length. Fourteen thous-
and cubic feet OF timber and so tons
Of iron were used in it's construction.
The water was pumped out by means
OF six centrifugal pumps. AS the YES
sci rose while the pumping proceeded
she was dragged towards the shallow
water, and finally beached.

THE WORLDS FAIR.

The Texas Legislature has under
consideration the question of an ap-
preparation to the Worlds Fair at
Chicago, and it is to be hoped will
make an appropriation commensu-
rate with the Importance of the
State and sufficient to make the
Texas exhibit as much larger than
other exhibits as the state is larger
than others. That it would be a
paying investment no one doubts.
With her vast resources properly
exhibited there, spread out in view
OF the world as it passes by, the
world would be astonished at its ca
Fatalities and pause to investigate
its grandeur, and immigration would
be drawn from the four quarters of
the earth. This influx resulting
from such an advertisement would
increase the value of the school
land far more than the legislature
need appropriate to make the exhibit.
1t would bring into the state cap.
ital that would help develop the
grand resources of the state, help to
populate the sparsely settled sec
tions and pay back every dollar two
fold that the Legislature expends
upon the opportunity of giving
Texas the best advertisement she
has ever had. People will gather
from all over the world az the
Worlds Fair and seeing her resour-
ces will be attracted here. To the
people here it is a self evident fact
that this is the best state in the I'm
ion, but the people in our sister
states do not know it, and the legis-
lature should make an appropria
ton sufficient to advertise the fact
conclusiyely to them as they go to
the Worlds Fair.
