"reminiscences of life in the southern

quaintances, says the Seattle Press

travellers, and two of them had been to
the islands.

"For years the genial old barbarian
had gazed upon the greatness. of the
navies of other nations and cherished
the desire to be represented and have
the dignity of his kingdom sustained by
a real armed cruiser.
"The more he saw Of the warships Of
other nations lying in his own harbor
the more it preycd on his mind. At
last the happy day came when he had
saved enough Notwithstanding the ef-
forts Of his cabinet officers, who tried
to temps him to play freeze-out and
other games of hazard, to buy n navy
for his beloved government. He had
already selected the vessel he was to
buy.
''It was the American ship Ethan
! Allen, serviceable craft bought of
i Americans and armed with four ten
Founders. 81.
''Then Kalalzaua conceived an idea
| of reciprocity with Samoa, the nearest
ncighboring group whose dignity ap-
preached that of Hawaii
"One fine day the Hawaiian, navy
| sailed off on its mission, and in time
reached the harbor of Apia- The flag
of the sugar islands was a pretty sight
! to the commander of the vessel, and the
gorgeous 'man-of-war' drove the Sa-
means nearly wild with envy.
"a brass band. made up of Kanallas,
, played the national anthem every night
for lights out and every day the
dusky crew strutted along the beach
and looked disdainfully at the poor ma
tives of Apia.
AFTER awhile the stores ran low, and
the Hawaiian navy was still two thou
sand miles from home. The command
er went to the merchants of Apia and
ordered store Of salt-horse and sea-
bread. They wanted their pay In adj
vance. The naval officer told them
with considerable dignity to charge it.
""To whom? they asked.
"'To King Kalakaua,' was the reply.
"'Who is hep came next.
"The officer pitied their ignorance,
+ but he couldn't enlighten them ENOUGH
to get any stores on tick. He finally
pawned the beautiful ten-pounders for
enough to last during the homewsrd

'"The navy is now anchored in the
harbor Of Honolulu, serving as quar-.
antine station. It is said that the last
days of the king were shortened by
this setback in his life's ambition, and
that, frequently, when he looked up
from an ace-high hand, there was a
pearly tear on the side of his nose. OBJ
servers thought it was because he
couldn't win that he wept, but his cabi-
net officials, who sat at the game, knew
differently"

Fosters PrOphesies.

Foster, the weather wizard, Gays the
next storm to pass over the central
Rocky mountain region will reach the
Pacific coast about the 10th, cross the
western mountains by the close of the
llth, the great central valleys from 18th
to 14th and the eastern states about the
18th.
The path OF this storm will be well to
the north, very hot weather south of it
along the middle and southern latitudes,
and it will be of its greatest from
18th to 10, after passing east of the Mis-.
sissippi.
A wave OF cooler and refreshing weather
will move eastward, crossing the western
mountains about the 18th, the great CEN
trail valleys about the Is and the eastern
states about the 18th. Foster says: "The
1892 drouth, which made its appearance
in spots during April and May, will have
spread to about its greatest dimensions
by the 18th of July, and fair estimate
may then be made as to what will be
the effect on crops. The turning point of
the drouth will be about the middle of
July, but many places will not be relieved
till late in August. have no reason to
change my estimate made in 1891, that
our greatest crops " ill be found along and
north of the fortieth parallel, while many
local crop failures will be found in the
southern part of the United States.
Countries of more than 1000 feet eleva-
ton were not generally included among
those where crops would fail.n

THE THIRD PAkTY.
Waverers Turn to Weaver and give
the OLD Man a Chance to
BE Defeated.
Spe cial to the New Mexican.

opttldi W bHc Now MeAlcdH
OMAHA, Neb., July 5.-The old guard
have won and Gen. Jas. B. Weaver, OF
Iowa, is the candidate of the Peoples
party for president of the United States.
For five days it has been manifest that
of all the leaders of the new party
Weaver was the choice of the vast
majority but the peculiar availability OF
Judge Gresham overshadowed his per
sonality and it was not until the distn-
guished judge positively declined to be
candidate that the delegates turned to
their choice and with almost one voice
selected the veteran, Gen. Weaver as their
standard bearer. There was some who
feared his greenback predictions might
affect his availability and it was those
who brought Sen. Kyle, OF South Dakota,
to the front, but the sentiment that one
of the old guard should be selected as
and Weaver's triumph was finally most
complete. Indeed the feature OF the
Gresham movement reacted promptly and
powerfully in Weaver's favor. The
friends Of the Iowan have contended for
several days that those who persisted in
booming Gresham after this practical
refusal to be candidate were actuated
solely by desire to defeat Weaver, and
when the Gresham movement finally COL
lapsed it lent the color of truth to this
assertion and made the waverers turn
to Weaver. But one ballot was taken, it
resulting in Weaver 995, Kyle 265. At
O'Clock this morning J. S. Field, OF Vir-
ginia, was nominated for vice president.
His opponent being Ben Terrell, of Texas,
the vote being 1888 to 554.

Americans In Danger IN China

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 3I.-Edwerd
Bedloe, United States consul at Annoy,
China, arrived here yesterday by the
steamer Oceanic, on leave OF absence.
He says the latest reports are that there
are fresh disturbances in North China and
serious trouble is expected. Trouble is
also looked for at Foo Chow, where there
il a large arsenal and several forts. II
the rebels get POSSESSION OF these forts
the United States has no war vessels in
the Asiatic squadron that could )approach
Foo Chow.
Mr.. Bedloe said Americans over there
were alarmed because of the defenseless
condition Of their wives and children, so
much so indeed, that they think oil
expatriating themselves add calling upon
some government that will guarantee
them safety. Viceroy 1t Hung Chang
has been told BY English officers the
reason we had not sufficient vessels there
was because America really didn't have
officers enough to command them, con-
founding our scarcity of sailors with an
alleged scarcity OF competent officers.

A BACKWARD AND FORWARD
GLANCE.

SO far as the people OF Wyoming are
concerned. they will part from 1891 with
little regret either expressed or implied.
Il was n year which promised great
things and was entered with the high
bounding hopes which statehood seemed to
ju-tity. Few years have borne such rosy
promises so far as Wyoming is concerned
and YET been OF such barren realization.
Ia two respects distinct advances have
been msde-in mining and irrigation.
For the first time ip.> our history mining is
now receiving Something Ike adequate
attentlonC. Heretofore we have relied to
q great extent upon desultorY prospecting.
The people have been entirely content
with indications and the simple faith that
Wyoming possessed an abundance and
variety of valuable minerals seemed suf-
fcient without anY cold blooded matter OF
fact demonstrations. Within the past
wear there has been a very complete re-
awakening and what is being done by
Granier's company at Miners Delight
Chat is, thorough ~developnent) Is being
attempted in half a dozen other camps in
as many different directions. The pro-
greas which has been made while it
it hasn't dazzled the world with any sud
den rich strikes has done more Tor it has
practically demonstrated the fact that
Wyoming will hereafter be a permanent
and profitable producer. There is every
indication now that tho year today en-
tered upon may mark radical changes IN
the conditions heretofore prevalent here.
Mining tby which we mean mining foi
psecious metals. coal mining having been
a profitable industry here for nearly a
quarter of a century, will become one of
the most important factors in the de-
%velopmeut of the state. Men are no
longer satisfied with scratching a little
hole 10 the earth and calling il a mine;
prospecting alone does not satisfy them.
They demand development aud this leads
