La Nature, a French journal of sci
ence, relates hat a gentleman who was
walking rapidly along the street on a
cold, fair day, and had by violent ex-
ercise brought himself into a condition
of profuse perspiration, took off his tall
hat in saluting q friend.
AS he did so he was astonished to feel
what was apparently a slight fall of snow
upon his head. Upon passing his hand
over his head he found several unmis-
taxable flakes of snow there.
1t is supposed that the freezing outer
air condensed the moist warm air within
the gentleman's tall hat so suddenly that
a veritable snow storm of miniature pro
portions was produced upon his head.

Seven Boats in Tow OF u Monster shark.
The singular sight was witnessed in
the harbor recently of man in a small
boat making a cruise with a shark for
motive power. Boat after boat went to
his assistance. until a string of seven,
manned by twelve hands, was in the
procession; but the sharks movements
increased with the increased weight, and
after leading his captors a merry dance
for a long while, he succeeded in throw
ing out the harpoon and effecting his es-
cape. We hear that the length of the
brute was estimated at being nearer

The other day, when the teacher and
pupils of district No. Z, of Clay township,
Auglaize county, arrived at the school
house they found a large rattlssnake
quietly dosing on one of the desks. The
lady teacher and the young scholars,
none over ten years of age, attacked the
reptile with sticks, when it suddenly
rose, ratified ~furiously and sprang at
them-the first evidence they had that it
was a rattlesnake. 1t put the scholars
to flight. A neighboring farmer was
summoned, who shot it, and the fright

Jewish Persecution.

The Jewish persecution is ex-
tending to all foreigners in Russia,
especially Germans. Poles and
Tartars. Prince Krapotkin, Gov
ernor- General of Transcaspla, has
signed secret order expelling
nearly all Polish engineers and
employees engaged in building and
working the Central Asian Rail
way. The same order gradually
expels all foreigners engaged
in service, except Frenchmen.
Among the Jews expelled from
Moscow are many old soldiers,
some decorated with st. Georges
cross, the highest possible reward
for valor on the field. The Gov
eminent intends to limit the num-

servative Association of England
should have lntimated to the Pre-
mier that a bill granting votes to
women would split the party and
had better be deferred.
Under certain conditions women
now vote IN England at municipal,
parochial and school board cleo
tions. For twenty years or more
bills have been introduced at varl-
Gus sessions of Parliament granting
them votes at all elections, and oc-
casionalIy they have commanded
considerable support in the House.
When Gladstone introduced his bill
charging the franchise, an amend
ment was introduced granting the
suffrage to women. and was sup
ported by most of the Conservative
leaders, including Disraeli. But it
failed to obtain votes enough to
pass. Lord Salisbury now realizes
that if the Conservatives are to re-
tain power they must try some new
policies, and among these woman
suffrage appears to him to be prom
Using. There Is one part OF the
Brit sh Empire in which women
possessed of certain property are
allowed to vote; that is the Isle OF
Man. The plan is said to work to
the satisfaction of both sexes.

are chagrined over hopes deferred

THE CENSUS.

The Census Report we published
Tuesday shows that the population
of the Hawaiian Islands on the
18th of December last was $1,000,
OF all nationalities, as compared
with 80,578 of the census of 1884,
or an increase of 9,412 or IL per
cent. in six years.
By nationalities, Hawaiians show
a total of 81, 436 in 1890, as against
4O,O14 in 1884; a loss of 1878, or
nearly IA per cent, in that short
period; a very serious consider
alton.
The next class, defined as Half
castles, have risen from 4,218 in
1884 to 6,186, or more than 4.5 per
cent. Hawaiian born of foreign
parents have increased from 2,O4O
to 1896, or, if they have been clas-
sified alike in both enumerations,
they have more than trebled.
Americans have decreased by
