HARRISON NOMINATED.

News is received by the Clau-
dine that the Republicans have
renominated Mr.. Harrison for the
Presidency. The Consuelo brought
the intelligence to Kahului. The
Blaine boom has therefore failed,
and the party settled upon their
only other available candidate.
The opposition to the ex-secretary
was probably too strong to be over
come, and it was doubtless
enhanced by his singular course
in resigning his seat in Mr. Har-
rison's Cabinet, just on the eve of
the nomination.
It is further said that there is q
split in the Democratic party, but
nothing has been heard as to its
precise nature. Mr.. Harrison is
almost sure to prove strong can
didate, and Mr.. Cleveland is the
only man under whose leadership
the Democrats would have strong
chance of victory.
For Mr.. Blaine, the resignation
of the secretaryship, coupled with
the failure to get the nomination,
will probably mean definite re-
tirement from public life, consti-
tuting thereby 4 somewhat inglori-
Gus close to a long and brilliant
political career.

A MEETING of the Worlds Fair
Commission will be held this
morning, at which business of i'm
portance will be transacted. Mr..
Thurston's report will be presented.
1t is to be hoped that the meeting
of the commission will have the
effect of rousing some lethargic leg
islators to the necessity of liberal
appropriation for the Fair. The
opportunity presented 10 Hawaii in
1893 to make herself favorably
known to the world is the great
est in her history, and will not
occur again. 1t would be blind
folly to let it pass unused for the
want of a few thousand dollars.

The enterprise of the Volcano
House Co. in organizing an excur-
sion to the summit of Mauna Loa,
is new business departure in Ha-
wall, and deserves the highest COM
mendation. No one who has ever
stood on the brink of that lonely
mountain crater, has spoken of it
in any terms but those of the deep
est enthusiasm. Mokuaweoweo,
whether active or dead, is one of
the worlds wonders, and should be
visited by thousands every year.
1t is to be hoped that the excur-
sion planned and provided for by
the Volcano House Co. will meet
with the success which it deserves.

it be in the form of display or
the colloquial, but the three or
four--line local, which appeared
in this paper last week regard
ing a set of China imported by
us from France for one of our
customers, has brought to our
store so many of that persons
friends who wanted duplicate
sets that we have had our
hands full waiting upon them.
Fortunately we have some sets
SO nearly like it in shape and
coloring that it would take a
"Conoozer" to distinguish one
from the other.
The shapes are odd and ir-
regular, as different from the
conventional dinner plate as
French ware is from the
English. The crimped edges
reminds one of the New
England housewives decora-
tons on her Thanksgiving pie
while the t7estr dc rs design is
so delicate that it will har-
monte with anything from
soup to cheese. The ability
of the artist is shown even
beyond the tinted decorations
for, pressed lightly into shape,
are equisite scroll designs
scarcely observable except
when the piece is held to the
light. The beautiful combina-
ton of shape and color is SO
artistically blended together
that it is doubtful if the manu-
features have ever shown a
more perfect productive
never have. The price is easy.
These goods arrived last
week and with them came
other things perhaps not SO
beautiful but quite as useful.
Hand Sewing Machines for
instance-we've been out Of
them for months-and our Gus.
toners have written that they
must have the New York
Favorite," and would take nc
substitute. 1t was impossible
for us to get this Machine I'm.
til now, because the demand
was larger than the output O.
the factory. Everyone who
has ever seen the New York
Favorite" knows it is the best
Hand Machine in use-ano
the cheapest.
Do you remember what &
run there was on Bean Pot,
when we imported the first lot
from Boston a few months
ago? We have more of then

Two Nautical Expressions.

These two expressions, weighing
anchor" and under way" are quite
distinct, but have been and still are
sadly confused. The following is in
Lathams edition of JJhnson: }
Weigh, s, in navigation, act of
leaving the moorings with UNDER.
Criticism of this absurdity is
waste of words. The weigh of
ship" is nonsensical. A substantive
weigh could only be applied to the
anchor, as it is this that is weighed,
not the ship, but the weigh of an
anchor" is not more familiar to me
than the weigh of ship" The way
of a ship is ineligible. 1t means
vulgarly her course or track, tech
nically her progress. A ship is un-
der way not merely at the moment
when she leaves her moorings, but
all the time she is sailing. Under
way" is probably borrowed from the
Dutch, though cognate expressions
exist in German (unter weges), Dan
ish Cunderveis) and Swedish Cunder
vagen). Hexham's Dictionary of
1858 has "onder wegen, under way
or upon the way" and l am told by
Dutchman that Het schip is onder
wegen" means, The ship Is Ell
route" and is the regular phrase

..MoosY cowed the Conductor

The Paris correspondent Of The
Vossische Zeitung relates a comic in
cident which took place during some
cheap trips on the Paris -Havre rail
way. The pleasure seekers found
only half the necessary quantity of
carriages at their disposal, and at
the station Harfeur the overplus
was put into a number of cattle cars,
which were quickly provided with
seats made of boards set upon blocks
of wood. No sooner did the ticket
taker enter TO demand the passen-
gers tickets than he was greeted
with a chorus of well initiated
''moosl" and the joke extending IT
self to all the other cattle cars he at
last desisted from his attempt.
At the next halting station the
station master began a remon-
strance, but Moo! mool moo!
sounded so overpoweringly that he
retired. The train finally arrived at
the terminus, Montvillier. Here the
passengers, initiating the awkward
leaps of cattle, sprang through the
gate by which travelling beasts usu-
ally leave the station. The station
master caught one of them by the
collar.
This was the signal for the whole
crowd to lower their heads and butt
at him vigorously with terrible low
ing, so that he was quickly obliged
to take to his heels, followed by
final triumphant Moo" The whole
company, who had joined without
generalization in the joke, then broke
out into peal of laughter, and CIV
ing their tickets to a smiling official
standing bgpeacefully left.

siosouitoes in Alaska.

At our camp for the night on a
grassy knoll in Alaska, the mosqui-
toes and other flies were in greater
numbers and more ravenous than we
had ever previously experienced
them. The whole insect world
seemed to hail our arrival with the
same relish that reservation Indians
welcome government rations. Their
attacks were fierce and incessant.
Our poor brutes, tortured into a
frenzy, though hobbled, stampeded
back and sought escape from the tor
ment by sinking into the swamp
through which we had labored only
a few hours before. The next morn
ing, however, afforded us delight
full rest, for a stiff breeze from the
southwark swept the air clear of the
pests and granted man and horse a
short respite. When plagued by flies
our leader, who wore a brass bell,
would create continual tinkling,
but when unmolested the band would
seek q soft patch of grass and go
soundly to sleep, profting by the I'M
usual lull.-E. j. Glave in Century.

Tho Parsce Home.

Commenting on the changes
wrought of late years i'll the Parsee
community, Mr.. Rajendralala Mitra,
LII. D., C. l. E., in lecture given in
Calcutta, says: ''At the beginning of
this century the Parsee at home diff
fered very little from his Hindoo fel-
low subjects. The furniture of his
house was the same, and he enjoyed
life squatting on cushions and carpets
like the Hindoos. His victuals con-
sisted of rice, homemade unleavened
bread, kid, mutton and vegetables,
dressed exactly in the same way as
Hindoo dishes are. He ate from
plates of silver, bronze or brass, ac-
cording to circumstances, as did the
Hindoos, and his lady sat apart and
took her meals separately from the
male members of the family.
Among the higher and middle
classes of Bombay these customs
have been entirely given up.
"In no respectable Parsee house
are the old farsh or takia to be met
with-chairs and couches have en-
tirely set them aside. Metal plates
have made room for glass and china,
and the meal is now served on English
tables, and tea, leavened bread and
pastry figure thereon. At ordinary
meals the rice and curry still hold
their ground, and on ceremonial oc-
casions English dishes are generally
eschewed. The restriction about the
lady of family dining with her male
relations has also been to a great ex-
tent set aside"

Is 1t Worth While?

Every careful economy involves
labor and leisure. The best bargains
are those which are pondered over
and worried over, and during the
negotiation of which you have
tramped many miles from store to
store, and through them all, up and
down and home and back again, to
match and compare and consult, and
at the end of which you are phys
ical and moral wreck. l doubt if a
real bargain can be picked up by any
other process. Watch the Wild
eyed, careworn, scanned ladies you
jostle against in elevators and who
back into you on the pavements, and
you are observing successful bar
gamers. Is the game worth the
candle Chicago Post.

Why the por Didn't Sit Down.

A seven-year-old Detroit young
ster, not famous for his angelic quail
tiles, was paying a days visit to a
nine-year-old in a distant portion of
the city, where he had made pre-
vious visit about six months before.
The boy stood around Dervously and
refused to sit down, Notwithstanding
the most pressing invitation.
why don't you sit down? per-
sisted his hosts mother.
The boy shook his head.
"You didn't act so when you were
here before, said the lady; why do
you do so now"
The boy hung his head and began
to stammer:
"W-w-well," he hesitated, moth
er's arm was broke before, but it's
well now. Detroit Free Press

Peoples Eyes and public Clocks.

Oculists say that the public clocks
of New York are a useless boon to a
large percentage of the people, and
that perhaps two-thirds of those who
pass the city hall are unable to dis
tinguish the figures on the dial of
the clock. 1t is pretty well estab-
hshed, however, that most persons
are so familiar with the proportions
of the dial that a dial without fig
ures, and supplied with large and
broad hands conspicuously painted,
could be read by many to whom the
ordinary public clock is a blank
New York Sun.
