II. G. Dun & Co. : weekly review of trade
says:
The year opens with the expected Inn
provement in the money markets and i'm
collections resulting from annual disburse-
ments which have been larger than usual.
The hopeful feeling I'm most branches OF
trade continues also, and the railroad out
look Is improved. IL is becoming clearer
every day that the one great obstacle to
prosperity Is the fear that debaScment Of
the dollar may produce violent contraction,
withdrawal of foreign investments, collapse
of credits, and a,disaster which VIII be felt by
every branch OF trade and industry. The
iron and steel manufacture has been so rap
idly extended that shrinkage OF credits has
forced sales in many cases at prices below
cost. On the whole the prospect Is consid-
erably less bright than IL has been for many
years In this industry. Reports OF trade

Received All the Honors.

II must have seemed TO Kalakaua, when
he was receiving honor at the hands of the
crowned heads of Europe that he was per-
petrating huge joke upon them. At the
head Of toy kingdom, with fewer than
$4,000 subjects, an empty treasury, an army
of $50 men and a navy of one small sehoon-
er, which was generally without crew, it
required considerable imagination to regard
him as King. But he received all the
honors BETTING his high dignity not that
the European crowned hrads had any spe-
cial regard for Kalakaua, but because they
wished to remain on friendly terms with
the ruler over a group of islands so i'm
portant from strategic point of view. His
experiences on his journey remind me
of story that was told by a Minister
of the United States at the Court of France
in tile days when the Empire was in
its glory. At a grand ball at the palace
there was a kentuckian. who had secured
an invitation through his persistent appeals
to the Minister. During the entire evening
he lowered close around group of the
Marshals of the French army, although the
plain black OF his badly fitting dress suit
made poor comparison with their reSplen-
dent uniforms. Finally the Minister sought
him and gently limited that the Kentuckian
would do well TO wander in other parts of
the ballroom. The latter Indignantly re-
piled that he belonged among the Marshals
and would not go elsewhere. To convince
the doubling Minister of the correctness of
his claim, the Kentuckian drew from his
pocket commission as marshal for the col
lection of the census .in a certain interior
district of his State. I'm a Marshal Just

TALKS FOR BOYS.
VI
By Colonel Thomas ". Knox.

When the late King Kalakaua made his
journey around the world and received the
honors of royalty from other crowned heads
he was fond of slipping away from the digni-
ties that surrounded him so as to be able TO
see IN an unobtrusve way the manners and
customs OF the people by whom lie was sur
rounded. One night he went to music hall
in London, accompanied by two trusted
friends, and hoped that no one would recog-
nize him. But he was recognized by wag-
gish Briton who had no respect for royalty.
and was sufficiently frequenter of the
music hall to be well acquainted with the
manager. Soon as he saw the dusky
monarch and his companion he slipped aside
to the manager and whispered some
thing in his ear. The latter gave an order
to the leader of the orchestra and also
to the singer who was about to make his
appearance on the platform the singer gave
the song for which he was down on the pro-
gramme, and, as he disappeared behind the
scenes, there was vigorous call for an en-
core. Again the singer appeared and, as
he came out and settled himself into posi-
ton Tor the encore the orchestra struck up
the very old and once popular air, 1.-The
King of the Cannbal Islands" 1t was
sung through without break despite the
loud applause which greeted it when the
knowing ones looked around and saw Kala-
kaua and his friends. The King WAS some
what nonplusSed at first, and blushed as
much as his swarthy com lexion permitted
then he appreciated the humor of the situa-
ton and laughed heartily, but he declined
tue invitation OF the manager to occupy
conspicuous seat where tue audience conld
see him. When the attentions of the specta-
tors became pressing he quietly left the
place, not through WEAKNESS with the per-
Torrance hut from desire tn aVni1 nnh-
LEFTY He went to another music hall,
where seats were obtained in secluded
corner, and, happily. no one recognized the
distinguished visitor.

THE DRUSES.

One of the Races Which at Present In
habit the Holy Land.
or all the various tribes and races which
at present inhabit the Holy Lan1 there are
none more distinctive and interesting than
the Druses. The interest attached TO them
is due TO several causes. In the first place.
they are one of the most exclusive races
upon earth. They keep religiously and
vigorously to themselves, never intermarry-
ing with outsiders, never interfering wit
the religious opinions of Others and never
allowing others to interfere with theirs. II
would be equally impossible to convert a
Druse to any other religion as it would be
TO become Druse ones self. They have
one great saying with reference TO their re-
lielon; The door is shut; none can enter
In, and none can pass out" They would
on no account admit proselyte into the
mysteries OF their faith, nor accept con-
vert from any other religion. 1t is equally
out OF the question to attempt to pervert
any OF the Druses TO another creed.
1t is true that In many parts of the Leb-
anon, aud especially in the neighborhood of
Beyrout, many Druse children may be
found in the missionary schools of the
Roman Catholics, Greeks and Protestants.
They are allowed to be instructed in the
catechisms of the various schools where
they may be placed and not infrequently
the teachers and pastors of the mission have
fondly imagined that they have secured
promising lambs for their folds from among
the children Of Druses. But as soon as ever
they arrive at the age for leaving school,
when the girls are manageable and the
boys ready TO assist their fathers in the labor
OF the field, they are taken back to their
Drnse village and home and become as strict
and exclusive in their religion as If they had
never heard OF any other One could fear
lessly challenge any missionary to produce
