a Timely Lasso Throw.

"The prettiest throw of the lasso I
ever saw was down in New Mexico last
summer" said a western cattleman. II
had gone out to look at a bunch of
cattle l thought of buying, and was
standing in front of the owners honse
discussing the proposed trade. A two
year-old child was playing about the
lawn, when suddenly it clapped its
hands and cried out as though highly
eiated. l turned my head and saw. To
my horror, that it was amusing itself
with a monster rattlesnake that was
just coileo 90 strike. The sn. Ike WAS
shooting Its forked tongue ont, almost
INTO the face of the child, and 1t was
MS action that SO pleased the little one.
Az my side stood u Mexican cowboy
Win y iasso on his arm. Quick as n
nash 1t went whizzing through the air
and c losed around the neck of the SER
pent just as it drew its head bacls Tor
the fatal stroke. The father of the
enid nodded his head, rem. rked that
1t was a capital throw, and resumed onr
discussion with inperturbabie gravity.

OUR NEXT PRESIDENT.

Whiteiaw Reid's Paper ON the Result
Responsibilities OF the Democracy.
Mr.. Cleveland has been elected, and
by an impressive majority of the states
and of the popular vote. This result
was all the more impressive because IL
was,a surprise TO the politicians Of both
parties Putting aside the claims of
enthusiastic partisans, there was a
general belief among well-informed
politicians that the republican ticket
would be successful. Whatever may
be thought as to the wisdom of the
peoples action there Is no doubt of
what it means. Mr.. Cleveland will
take office with a democratic majority
in both houses of congress To support
him. In II sense this Is not to be re-
GREETED. II has been u ~favorite demo-

Mr.. EnsIish's Boys Score a
Success.

The advertisement ct the I. VI

it was unique, and Of the sort which
makes one call for more The idea
OF illustrating q lecture on great
musician by selections from his
works, Is 2 capital one. because 1t re
suits in combining instruction with
amusement. One IS entertained, and
one learns.
The entertainment last night was
really given by the class OF boys to
whom Mr. English has been giving
gratuitous instruction for some
months past, and their singing last
night certainly reflects the greatest
credit On their teacher.
The threatening weather early in
the evening doubtless kept away
numbers from the lecture, but the
audience which gathered. though
small, was at least highly select

the greatest favor, the Hon. Paul
Isenberg being compelled to
give an encore. The chorus singing
By the boys was delightful. and Mas
ter r. Mist, who sang There is a
green hill" to the great satisfaction
Of the audience, has very sweet,
pleasing voice.
The lecture was just what, under
the circumstances, it should have
5een-fuIl of anecdCte, but full of
useful information also, and its liter
airy quality was OF course high. A
heavy storm came on during the
course Of the evening and the rain
and thunder were particularly loud
just as Mr. English was unfolding a
few theories Of artistic expression,
which naturally interfered somewhat
with the efforts Of the audience 10

Why would it not be a good idea
to give a series Of lectures on the
great composers, illustrated exclu-
sively by selections from their works
Such a course would be educational
in the best sense. No one is more

such a plan than Mr.. English him
self; he and those assisting him
would always be sure of an apprecia

MAT BEEF TRUST.

T. ere is no longer any ground
for disputing Honolulu's claim to
a high place among civilized cities.
We have opium rings, gambling
dens, wire-pullers, social scandals,
and all the crimes known to the
most diversified criminal code, not
to mention telephones, electric
lights, concerts, philosophic clubs,
and the various other things symp-
tomato Of the cultivated intellect.
Moreover, we have a BEEF TRUST.
From the standpoint Of the
members OF the Trust itself, the
existence Of the latter organiza-
ton should be hailed with unmixed
delight. 1t raises most appetiz-
ing prospect Of rich and juicy diyi-
dends from the dryest and toughest
of meats. This is indeed to gather
grapes from thorns and figs from
thistles. If, az is so often asserted,
the man who makes two blades of
grass grow where one grew before,
is benefactor to his kind, the
Beef Trustees, who strike divi-
dends out Of meat as Noses struck
water from the rock, are entitled to
statue apiece.
The object Of the Trust is of
course, like that Of all trusts, to
corner profits by getting the COM
modify cheaper from the producer
and selling it dearer to the con-
sumner. There is nothing dishonest
or dishonorable about this, but the
producers and consumers, who
look at matters through. spectacles
Of their own, naturally do not find
the prospect as rosy-hued as the
Trust does. The consumer might
be reconciled to the rise in prices
if he got better article, but no
the steak is still an invitation to q
tooth-breaking exercise, while the
roast yields, as of yore, neither t.
force nor persuasion. Cold storage
is still the fond epicure's dream
and the veal continues to be queer

and X.
The cattle raiser, in his turn, i:

worth.

NO MONGOOSES.
The United States Government
viii Not Admit Them.

The following is clipped from
the s. F. Chronicle Of a late date
and viii be found interesting
An article copied from the New
York Recorder was published in
the Chronicle last month, in which
it was stated that Secretary Rusk
had spoken highly of introducing
the mongoose in this State, be-
lieving that it would be of great
benefit to horticulturists and agri-
culturists in killing off rats, SPUR
rels and gophers. It was also
stated that the Agricultural De-
partment would import the little
animals from India.
s. Ephraim of the National Fruit
Growing Company, seeing the arti-
Gle, Immediately sent an order to
the Hawaiian Islands for six pairs
of mongooses. He wrote to Col
lector Phelps, asking as a matter
of form whether he would allow
the small exterminators to land.
The answer was that the Collector
knew of no United States statute
against their landing and that the
mongooses could be brought in.
Mr.. Ephraim, whether he doubt
ed the authority or whether he
wished to let the Secretary of Agri-
culture know that he was helping
the supposed governmental project,
wrote to Mr.. Rusk telling him
what he had done. To his sur
prise Mr.. Ephraim received dis
patch on Saturday from Assistant
Secretary Edwin Willetts, which
reads az follows:
Letter to Secretary Rusk re-
ceived. Do not land mongooses ;
they are the greatest pest that can
be introduced into this country ;
newspaper article entirely unauth-
orized by this department.
This excludes the mongoose as
effectively as the Mongol, and with
far less trouble. The expected
mongooses will be remanded.

Yesterday, about 1 80 P NJ, Mer-

a lively commotion, caused by the
cratic proceedings of a hack-horse
who concluded to make a strike for
liberty. The start was made oppo-
site the Police Station. The horse
started suddenly, before the driver
George Rose) had time to get in,
and, in his efforts to stop the ex-
excited animal, the latter was
thrown down and cut about
the head, though not seriously.
The first thing the horse
did after disposing Of the driver,
was to smash two bicycles belong
ing to Mr.. Southwick and Mr.
Peterson, after which he ran down
Merchant street, colliding with the
Hawaiian Wine Co.'S wagon, cross
ing Fort street, and finally being
stopped by the telephone post on
the corner Of Alakea street. The
top Of the carriage was completely
wrecked, and one of the shafts
broken, besides other injuries. The
horse was not hurt.
The white horse in the Hawaiian
Wine Co.'S wagon also started to
run, but was stopped before he had
got up much momentum. The
accident to the bicycles caused
quite a sensation, and large
crowd gathered around the wrecked
beauties, which were both Column
bias.
The hack was No. As, and be-
longed to the Pantheon Stables.

The weather last week was
warm enough to lead tourists
TO believe that the volcano
is in much closer proximity
TO Honolulu than it really is.
1t also caused a demand

Duty and Pleasure.

AS l sit in front of my fire, in the red flames numberless pictures appear and disappear. Now I see wide plain, green as the heart of an emerald. The sky in the west is afa1ne with golds and reds of the setting sun, fading and deep ening like living things. Beyond the plain in forest two figures stand apart. One is clothed in garment black as the impenetrable night, and from the dark veil which covers her head looks face beautiful as marble image. The large, soft eyes are heavy with sorrow, but the beautiful mouth is set in an expression of firm and cruel command. One white hand holds back the veil, and the lines of that hand against the somber back ground bespeak a strength that makes one tremble. A diadem of jewels rests on her broad brow and gleams and sparkles with the colors of the sky. Her eyes search the forest increasingly.
 Poised on one foot the other figure, smaller and delicate as rose leaf, seems about to float in the air. A white veil, which glows and burns like an opal, is thrown around her. Roses are in her hair and drop their fragrant petals at her feet. Her shining eyes are as cold and as blue as northern sky, and her hair is like strands of twisted gold. Her full red lips curve in an alluring smile, and her small hands and delicately rounded arms, rosy in the sun rays, move in graceful rhythm, which is music unheard. She, too, looks toward the forest.
 At last a maiden creeps trembling from the shadow of the trees; she turns her head from side to side like hunted hare. Both figures advance to meet her. She gazes timidly from one to the other-a dull blot as she stands between them. One whispers duty and the ot' T pleasure. The fire is burning low; he picture is fading. Chapman in Short Stories.
