reached the ears Of the besieged, and a
regiment Of chasseurs charged and
routed the followers of the prophet in
less time than it takes to relate this
short episode.
1t was only when calm had been re-
stored and when the prisoners captured
in the short combat had been bound
hand and foot that the captain of the
detachment discovered how this regi
ment of chasseurs had come TO his as
sistance at SO timely moment. The
canhniere at the beginning of the en-
gagement had jumped on horse, and
galloping all the way to the encamp-
ment of Medeah, situated some fifteen
miles distant, had summoned help. In
so doing she may be said to have carried
her life in her hand, for il was only with
the greatest difficulty that she avoided
the Arab outposts. She suffered fright
full fatigue in this mad race across the
burning sands of the desert, pursued by
the awful thoughts that should she not
arrive in time her beloved comrades
would be butchered before she could
rescue them, and yet it was she who led
the rescuers back to the spot where a
handful Of braves had been struggling
for six mortal hours with an overpower-
ing number of enraged Arabs, and il
was by her energy and well nigh in
credible force of endurance that many a
valuable existence was saved that night.
The Duchess de la Rochefoucauld,
mother-in-law to the young American
duchess Of the same name. nee Miss
Mitchell. is also an ox-cantiniere.
OF her birth and origin it is impossible
to speak extensively, inasmuch as she
was a founding, and as soon as she at
/ tanned womanhood she became a yiyun-
diere or cantiniere of the regiment in
which her future husband was serving
as officer.
He married her while campaigning in
! Algeria, and the mesalliance created an
enormous sensation at the time. Indeed
for a cantiniere TO marry commissioned
officer was an absolutely unheard Of oc.
currence, for the highest rank in which
women Of her class had until then been
accustomed to look for husband was
that Of corporal

vIvANDTRE, 1898. ored scarf, and
which always contained a reviving
draft of brandy for her beloved "chil-
dren," as she called the soldiers of
France.
No better description has ever been
given of the cantiniere than is to be
found in Ouida's popular novel, Under
Two Flags" Cigarette, the heroine,
is the true type, if somewhat poetized,
of this vivacious, joyous, plucky, un-
daunted and mischievous member of the
fair sex, who has for so long period
followed the French army TO glory, and,
alas, of late years to defeat. Ever
cheerful and bright, the cantiniere has
fitted on all the battlefields of Europe,
tending the wounded, feeding the hun
CRY and moistening the parched lips of
the dying from her ever ready little
barrel.
She was a peculiar mixture Of the
sister of mercy and of the opera bouffe
queen-a bird with gay plumage, but pos
sessing all the sterling qualities which
uphold sinking energies, and infuse new
life in those who are weary unto death
namely, resolution, courage touching to
temerity, and complete devotion to suf-
fering humanity. No wonder that the
army of France should be repining over
the loss of so useful and so attractive,
not to say so beloved, a personality, and
that the fat which has gone forth re-
garding her has saddened so many a
brave heart.
Countless are indeed the deeds OF
valor and abnegation which can be laid
at the door of the "cantiniere" during
the din of battle, for she feared neither
bullets nor swords, and utterly regard
less Of her own safety she was alway:
to be found where her tender, if some
what rough, ministrations were mos
needed.

cantinieres is Nine. Vialar, Lorraine

government.
A most touching incident was related
to me few years ago by General Coun
de Keratry, and it is so characteristic
that cannot resist the temptation Of
transcribing it here.
1t happened during the Kabylian ex-
petitions at the time of the Algerian in
surrection. One day a detachment of
zouaves and chasseurs d'Afrique was
sent to reconnoiter the position Of the
enemy far into the desert; the soldiers
were accompanied by their cantiniore
and by her wagon filed with provisions.
On the second night Of the march the
little troop was suddenly surrounded by
5000 or 10000 Arabs. The men took
refuge behind a tangle Of stunted mimosa.
Soon the fray grew fast and furious. Un-
fortunately but little ammunition had
been brought by the French detachment,
and after a few hours Of hard fighting
the officer in command found TO his hor-
ror that the position could not be held
any longer, and that in spite of the al
most incredible valor OF his men death
was staring them in the face.
Being given the force of the attacking
party, it was useless TO think Of attempt

New York, March 25.--Hon. j.
Mott Smith, Minister from Hawaii at
Washington, is in the city on an i'm
portant matter pertaining to the
future relations between the kingdom
of Queen Liliuolalan and the United
States. He will see number of
men interested in the island kingdom
and its sugar and rice products, and
will discuss with them the feasibility
of bringing about a commercial
union between this country and Ha-
waii.
AS the Minister tersely puts it, "we
would not only like to have free trade
between the two countries, but we
desire to have the same relations
commercially as State in the
Union"
Minister Smith is a native of this
State, but for the last forty years his
career has been closely connected
with his adopted country, where he
has held high oflice-once as Minister
of the Interior-and where he has
always been highly esteemed by all
classes of people and by the reigning
sovereigns. He succeeded the late
Minister Carter.
A reporter asked: SIS there not
a treaty already in existence between
the United States and Hawaii? ~
eyes, one made in 1876, which
admitted sugar and rice duty free
into this country, We were satisfied
with that treaty until the new tariff
law went into effect, putting sugar
on the free list. If Hawaii had the
same commercial relations to the
Union as State we would get a
bounty on our sugar and be happy.
Putting sugar on the free list has vir-
tuallv abrogated the treaty between
the two countries.
II asked Mr.. Blaine for his opin
ion and he answered in the affirma-
tive, but our relations with this coun-
try are of the friendlieSt and we do
not propose to take the initiative in
declaring the treaty abrogated be-
cause sugar is free of duty. We
propose to establish closer relations
and become to all intents and pur-
poses, so far as commerce is con-
cerned, State in the Union. Am
orleans have $50, 900, 900 invested ir
sugar cane plantations in Hawaii
and so it can be seen how necessary
it is for them to protect their inter
ests by new treaty. But the point
is simply this: Sugar on the free list
to all the world in this country works
great hard ship to the sugar inter
ests of the Hawaiian Islands"

HONOLULU FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Proceedings of the Board of Repre-
seuintiVes.

There was a smaller attendance
than usual at the monthly meeting of
the Board of Representatives of the
Honolulu Fire Department last night.
Several members are out of town,
while others were unavoidably absent
from the meeting. Chief Engineer
Asch, Assistants Hunt and kalawaia,
and Secretary Smith were, however,
on deck.
Most of the business led either
directly or indirectly to the great
question of Il new central station and
bell tower. Col. Boyd got at with
Il resolution sent up by his company,
Engine No. A, for committee of
experts to examine and report on the
condition of their engine house and
ball. Messrs. L. r. Lucas and j..
G. White were appointed for the pur-
pose.
Mr.. T. krouse gave another peg to
hang the discussion on, in the shape
of lease of Fishel's hall for the
Fire Police. With some suggested
amendments the lease for two years
was approved at $50 rent month.
1t was gwen to the meeting that the
Minister of the Interior is confident
the Legislature will provide for the
much needed new department head
quarters.
A committee reported 1t had given
Mr.. Viggo Jacobsen the order to en-
gross the letter of coincidence TO the
family of the late Geo. Lucas. The
sum of $50 was voted as relief to a
