Saving the Pine.

At dinner party in London the centre
piece is often a large pineapple, which, by its
fragrance and beauty, justihes its position.
But ii is whispered that the pineapple is not
unfrequently hired for the occasion, and that
ohe butler has been ordered TO preserve II from
being sliced by the guests.
Many years ago, when Queen Adelaide as
sisted her stupid. gOod-natured husband. VIII
liam ~, to stimulate the social life of Eng
land, the lord mayor of London was informed
that her Majesty would lunch at the Mansion
House on certain day. At the feast the
Queen sat at a small circular table with the
lord mayor and the lady mayoress, while the
other guests were seated at large table adj
Joining that of royalty, on which stood a mag
nifcent pineapple. So attractive was the pine
that it drew more eyes than the Queen.
Her Majesty declined TO partake. of the
pineapple. and II remained uncut when she
rose to leave the table. and many OF the guests
congratulated themselves on the fact that there
would be more slices to 60 round.
The lord mayor, canny Scotchman. an
ticipated his guests thoughts. and, as he gave
the Queen his arm 10 escort her from the hall
Mid to young friend, also a Scot oblige me

Tot md the Turtle.

lot came 10 me one morning WIFI puL-
zled and inquiring look in her large, beautl-
him?" she seemed TO say. He worries me
more than all the others put together"
Tot was a small, oream-colored Eskimo dog
and it was one of her adopted children. tur-
tie, that was just then causing her motherly
heart so much anxiety. After thus question
ing me with her expressive eyes, bright idea
seemed TO strike her. She ran To her closet
and separated the troublesome turtle from the
other members of her rather singular family,
pushing him with her nose into corner OF
the room. Then she brought some pieces of
muslin, and covered him over so that not a
bit of him could be seen.
"Tbere. now, think ne will sleep and give
me time to attend to my other children" was
her apparent comment.
Tot was in the habit of adopting all the
motherless strays she came across. At the
time of which write, we had two little ducks
that had been left orphans. Tot heard them
complaining one day. II seemed to make her
very miserable At last she could bear II no
longer so down stairs she went. and,
to my utter establishment, returned with
one Of the ducklings. safe and sound, IN her
mouth, depositing il in the box with her three
puppies. In the course of the day she sue
ceeded in bringing the other little fellow up
stairs and placing him with his brother. The
ducks seemed quite happy with their adopted
mother, and, when older, followed her every
where, running after her and screaming If she
got too far ahead of them.
A singular thing il was that Tot and her
own children never injured these feathered
foundlings. But am sorry TO say that Tot
never loved the turtle. always covering up the
ungainly little creature whenever it ventured
to put out its head TO be sociable with the rest
Of the family.-February st. Nicholas.

BASE BALL LINERS.

The Kamehamehas played ball
Saturday.
There is too much Winter in
the Honolulu base ball team.
Not receiving the official score, we
are unable to give it in full.
The tally man,as he saw Meheula's
flyer coming near his post, started to
desert it.
Most of the Honolulus are hard
hitters, but the outfeld of the Kane
hamehas is superb. They judge the
balls well.
The kamehamehas not only
coached from the field but from the
players bench also, (which should not
be allowed again.
The umpires, Messrs. W. E. Wall
and w. V. Lockwood, so we'll UNI
pired the game that not a single
kick" was made.
A wire screen with meshes suffi-
GENTLY small to keep out a base ball
should be stretched the entire front
of the new grand stand.
A foul that flew backwards to the
grand stand, during Saturdays
game, was caught by Mr. Geo. Ross,
saving perhaps a black eye for some
one.

At PuuahOu.

The schoolroom at the Punahou
Preparatory School was crowded
Friday forenoon, many having to
stand, the occasion being the closing
entertainment given by the prepare
tory department. The exercise con-
sisted of recitations, declarations,
singing, ETC. The singing was espe-
cially good and reflects much credit
upon the teacher, Miss Lorenzen.
Two OF the songs was the compost
ton OF Prof. Blssell. Other parts of
the programme were equally well
carried out.

sion his face looked like a CORFU
gated wash-board.
Seventh innings-E. Wodehouse
knocked pretty double but got no
farther, as the next three men were
retired in quick succession. No
runs. Pahau was the only batter to
reach first for the Ksmehamehas.
No runs.
Eighth innings-W Wilder, the first
man at the bat, started the
ball to Waikiki, but Keliinoi
judged it we'll and Wilder took
his place on the bench. Running
certainly tires Winter, for he failed
to get farther than the batter's box
again. A. Lucas died at first. No
runs.-In their half of this inning
the kamehamehas added two more
runs to their already winning lead
on base of balls, batter hit with
with the ball, and double by Ma
kaimoku.
Ninth innings-It took about
minute and half to retire the Homo
lulus. They went out in rapid one,
two, three order. The champions
did not bat.
Following is the score by innings:
Honolulus .210O2 OOO0-5

just opposite the Royal Saloon on
Nuuanu street was the scene of an
other blaze. At $40 o'clock Friday
evening fire alarm was turned in
to the Bell Telephone Company
from the Police Station.
The building in which the FIRE
started was rickety old wooden
building, dry as finder, and need
ing only a spark to set it ablaze.
Just what was the origin of the fire
is not known, but it is presumed
that, the upper rooms being used as
a sort of gaming quarters for China
men, a lamp may have been over
turned. AT any rate, the fire started
at that part of the building said to
have been the gaming quarters.
Around the upper story was a lat
ticed versnda along which the flames
rapidly crept as If following ND a

offered to aid in removing his goods,
he said, NO, lettee lone. no movee.n
and stood with folded arms against
the side of the doorway till it began
to get uncomfortably warm even for
a Chinaman.
The building adjoining this on
the mauka side soon caught fire
along the roof, but by the energetic
labors of the iremen, was saved
with only the loss of the roof, and a
thorough soaking. Had there been a
strong wind, or had the fremen not
been so active, there would have
been an extensive fire. One consola-
ton, however, is that new brick
building will in all probability be
erected in the place of the old one.

1t Was a Turtle.

There was what might be called a
stampede among some bathers yes
terdsy at Waikiki. One CT them,
who has been stopping at the Ha-
waiian Hotel, while trying to reach
the reef, thought he saw the head of
a shark bob up few yards in front
OF him Turning suddenly " upon
his heel" the bather started for
the beach faster than he had
swan from it; upon reaching
which he shouted out with what
wind was still in his lungs, that
" There's shark out thereln The
shark, however, turned out to be a
large turtle. which was apparently as
much scared as the bather.

Supposed Wreck of the Bark C.

The schooner Ia Moi. which ar
rived yesterday from Paauilo, Ha-

D. b. Ward, was driven ashore from
her anchorage st Hilo by the storms
last Thursday, and became a total
wreck The Hawaii brought the
news OF her arrival at Hilo on the
ID inst. ten days from Honolulu.
Messrs. Allen & Robinson, the
agents, did not receive any definite
news about the disaster, but they
expect TO get the particulars to-day
by the Kinau.
The steamer Kilauea Hou arrived
last night from Hskalau. She con-
frmed the above news. The steamer
Klnau was at Hilo at the time and
rendered all possible assistance. but
the storm was too much for her
powers

Welcome to Honolulu.

There is hardly a doubt but that
the Honolulu people will support
Mr. j. Levey in his arrangements
with Mr.. Henry E. Abbey, theatrical
manager for Sarah Bernhardt, for
an entertainment here by the world
renowned actress. Such an oppor-
tunity does not happen very often to
our city, and even the price of SIS
admission is not too much to hear so
celebrated an actress with support
of twenty five people.
