Chin Kun, the Treasurer Of the
Chinese Opera and Theatrical Com
psny of Portland, Oregon, arrived
here last week and has made arran.
gements to take five years lease OF
II six etory building in Pell street
for the purpose Of making it into
Chinese theatre. A number OF
New York and Boston Chinese
merchants will take shares in the
new theatre, the capital stock OF
which is to be $40, 900 The com
pany is to be organized according
to American ideas. and, il the build
inc selected proves satisfactory to
the building inspectors. alterations
will be commenced Immediately.
According TO Chin Kun, plenty Of
money will be spent TO decorate the
theatre, which will be one of the
most elaborate in the country. All
OF the alterations will be made bv
Chinese workmcn, Snd the theatre
will be Chinese IN every respect.
The plays will be Chinese, the nc
tors Chinese and no doubt the au-
diences will bc Chinese also. We
had taste Of the Chenese drama
last ycsr and | imagine that will
satisfy Americans for some years to
como.
a movement has been started by
. number OF prominent ladies Of
this city for the purpose Of establi-
shlrg X botanic garden, which it is
intended shall be located in ono of
he new public parks beyond the
Harlem River. A well attended
meeting was held last week to dis
cuss the matter, when it was unhn
imousl y resolved that botanic gar
den in New York has become pub
Tic necessity. frhe Commissioners
OF Public PARIS have given their
cordial cooperation and have prom =
lsed TO devote such land as may be
needed for the purpose, provided o
sufficient sum of money for the
equipment and maintchanco OF the
garden be raised within two years.
The movement is in charge OF the
Torrey Botanical Club. and the
meeting was held a. the residence
Of Judge DAILY, President Of the
American Geographical Society.
All present expressed great interest
in the undertaking and tho inten
ton to further it in any way in
their power.
A most important improvement
in mail transportation is about to

Direetor-General Sachse, of the pos
tnl service Of Germany has been for
soma time making arrangements
with the United Ststcs authorities
TO inaugurate the new system, and
an agreement is at prese-t to go in
to effect between the United States
and Germany only, but efforts will
be made TO include France and En-
gland as soon as possible. The new
service will be inauguratod on the
first OF next April. Two mai
clerks, one frors each country. will
be stationed on board each steamer
whose duty will be to sort the mail'
/ in transit. and thus save seyera
hours in delivery. The ncU system
will undoubtedly be great improv-
ment and foreign mails for the west
especially will be greatly benefited

"Jingoism" is n dangerous

The Evening Star, Washington,

Supreme Court upon the prelimin-
airy question disposes of the techni-
cal point that the Alaskan Court is
not a district Court of the United
States, and that the Supreme Court
cannot issue writ of prohibition

The Situation.

Mr.. EDITOR: The community is sur
prised by the demand OF Her Majesty
for the resignation of the Cabinet.
Under our Constitution, which the
Queen is sworn to uphold, the popular
will IS voiced by Cabinet, which con-
tinues as such exponent until disapproved
by vote of want Of confidence OF the
Legislature. 4 want of confidence on
the part OF the Sovereign cuts no greater
figure in the case than the want of con-
fidence of any other individual. Royal
policy is not favorably conten plated by
the Constitution. On the contrary, for
reasons justified by experience it is en-
phatically ignored, and the interests OF
the country are confided in and its policy
shaped by Government which, while
it lasts, represents the popular will.
Sovereign policy and royal pleasure are
available only when consonant with the
general will, and exercised in accordance
with the Constitution; when otherwise
they possess interest merely as instances
OF caprice.
Ii good taste on the part OF the Cabinet
requires its resignation, corresponding
taste on the part OF Her Majesty dictates
immediate reinstatement. We have
passed the age of despotlsm, and the
general will must take precedence over
royal pleasure When the latter is ar
ranged against the former, it must be
treated as an OBSTRUCTION. There is
nothing disloyal in such view. The
Prerogative is clearly defined and limited
by the Constitution, and the popular
will is as clearly exalted. If the Cabinet
properly represents the people, and the
Sovereign wish is in accordance with the
popular will, then the resignation OF the
Government is merely prelude to its
reinstatement. In view OF which, resigna
| ton and reappointment appear some
| what farcical.
While it is conceded that potentates
differ in views and designs, our Constitu-
ton never contemplated that popular in
terest should be affected or reversed by
| the decease OF one Sovereign and the
accession of another. The instrument
rather guards against just such contingent
cies, by rendering the Government &C
countable to and making its course o
authority dependent on the Legislature
! In view of the universal endorsement o
the Cabinet, the demand of Her Majesty
! for its retirement assumes an attitude o.
hostility to the general will. Such being

A RARE COLLECTION.

The Result OF Nearly Ten Years
What These Islands Can
Produce.
Mr.. Thomas G.Thrum has on view
in a window of the Uptown Book
Store a collection of Hawaiian
woods. There are 120 different
kinds, ninety-si1 of which are indig-
enous, twenty four introduced, but
all grown on the Islands. They are
in eight trays of koa and kou woods,
and are as beautifully polished as
any kind of wood can be. Mr.. Thrurn
intends If possible TO get duplicate,
and may take set to the Worlds
Fair 1t took him over ten years
to obtain this collection, and 1t is
certainly worth a good deal OF labor
TO have such a collection, list OF
which Is given below.
