NEWS AND NOTES.

From the American aloe tree is
made thread, ropes, cables, paper,
clothing, soap, sugar and brandy.
The wheat harvest in the Argen-
tine Republic is so abundant, and
labor is so scarce that ordinary
farm hands are paid $3.50 day
in gold, with board and lodging.
The harvest has been greater than
was ever before known.
The cow tree of South America
yields tactical fluid which in color,
taste and. nutritive property close
ly resembles the offerings of your
milk man. 1t forms large forests
in some districts of Venezuela, and
is much priced for its product.
The paper tree of the south seas
is species of mulberry. It's inner
bark is so delicate that a soft and
pleasant-feeling cloth is made from
it which the natives use in making
their chest suits" It is also used
in the manufacture Of a very fine
grade of paper.
A hole 1900 of an inch in dame
ter has been considered remark
able, but nowadays jewels with
holes much smaller in diameter
are required for several purposes.
They are inserted in plates for
drawing wire and fiber, and are
used in electrical, mathematical
and nautical instruments.
The tallow tree of China is so
called from the fact that it pro-
duces a substance resembling tai
low and which is used for similar
purposes. The fruit is inclosed
within pod. Awhile pulp is found
within and this substance the Chi
nese use in making candles, mix
ing a little oil in it to make it softer
and more pliable.
The dredge of the Albatross fire.
quently brought up shells of the
pearl oyster in depths of 60 to $50
feet in the Gulf of California. The
Bay of Mulege has furnished some
pearls of rare value, among them
"those magnificent pearls of which
the collar was made for the Queen
of Spain, and which evoked so
much admiration at St. Cloud and
Windsor Castle"
The African baobab tree lives to
be thousands Of years old. Hum
boldt called it "the oldest organic
monument on our planet" One
specimen of it that was carefully
examined by an English botanist,
proved to be $3.50 years old. At least
that was the result of the usual
tests for determining the lives Of
trees. This particular tree was
thirty feet in diameter, and the
spread of the branches was enor,
nous.

Youthful But Asfufe Witness.

A small Scotch boy was summoned
to give evidence against his father,
who was accused of making disturb
ances in the streets. Said the bailie
to him: "Come, my wee mon, speak
the truth, and let us know all ye ken
about this affair" "Weel, sir" said
the lad, "d'ye ken Inverness street,"
81 do, laddie," replied his Worship.
"Weel, We gang along it and turn
into the square, and across the
square" - Eyes, yes" said the
bailie, encouragingly. AN, when
We gang across the square, ye turn
to the right and up into High street
and keep on up High street till ye
come to a pump" quite right, my
lad; proceed" said his Worship. Il
know the old pump WE'LL" Well"
said the boy, with the most infantile
simplicity, "ye may gang and pump
it, for yell no pump me!'

expectations of a change, as the
same hopes and expectations had
before been raised on the advent OF
her predecessor. With a loyalty
which did honor to the heart and
the understanding of the people,
Queen Liliuokalani's accession to
the throne was endorsed by the
nation, who looked to the event as
the harbinger of prosperity. Hopes
were excited that her reign might
prove to be a new era, scattering
peace and content over the land,
and giving promise of golden re-
turns to the husbandman, me-
chanic and laborer. Her utter
ances have shown a desire to arrest
the misfortunes of this country-a
heart in sympathy with the rem
nant of her race-and purpose to
do for them what her predecessors
failed to accomplish. 1t is, there
fore, proper to inquire how far these
hopes have been realized, what err
rors have been made, and to point
out the way in which the Kingdom
may gain advantage and perma-
nent prosperity.
These are topics which may pro-
perly be publicly discussed, and
with your permission | shall invite
attention to them in one or two let
tiers which will appear later.

Cold Baths For Typhoid.

The London Lancet says that the
system of cold baths in the treatment
of typhoid fever as employed in Ger
many has been put to the test by Dr..
Josias, and he reported to the Societe
des Hopitaux that during the yerrs
of 1888 and 1889 he treated thirty-six
cases of typhoid fever by cold baths,
that is to say, with water at Is deg.
c., repeating these every three hours.
OF thirty six cases the experimenter
obtained thirty three recoveries- Drs
Renoy and Richards, who on their
side had followed this method, OBJ
tanned 103 recoveries out of los
cases.

Mr.. Hunfsman and The Liberal

Mr.. EDITOR | desire to make a
statement in regard to my connec-
ton with The Liberal. r. w. Will
cox and myself founded the publ
cation in question, and | was to be
editor and manager. Mrs. Theresa
Cartwright gradually usurped the
management and appropriated the
receipts till she had full control of
the paper. When l found that l
was not to be paid, quit. My
leaving had nothing to do with the
Society Yarn" The statement to
that effect in the last issue of 'The
Liberal is a rather ingenious and
very malicious lie.

A VENERABLE MISSIONARY.

AT the Methodist conference in
Omaha, Bishop Fowler Of San Fran
cisco presided on May 8.
The venerable Bishop Taylor pre-
sented bis report. He said there
were over 10000 native Methodists
in Africa, thirty eight Sunday
Schools, over 800 teachers and $3.50
Sunday school scholars. He declared
the work in Africa was stupendous.
The people there must be educated
in hand and brain as well as in reli.
gon, otherwise they will he unable
TO support themselves in that barren
land, and would inevitably drift back
into barbarism. The best field is
among the children. Girls and boys
must be educated together. In order
to do this, as the girls were always
sold by their parents, it was neces-
sary TO have money to buy them and
then educate.
The report was Endorsed by a rising
vote. AT the request of one OF the
delegates Bishop Taylor then brought
forward and placed on the stand a
little African child, which he brought
with him, explaining that though only
three years old, and only three
months out of heathendom, she had
learned to speak English. The object
lesson attracted much interest.
