DEATH TO
First Speech of the Representative from
Amaroogia County.

First Speech of the Representative from
Amaroogia County.
The new member from Amaroogia
county arose to address the chair. 1t
was the first time he had essayed to oc-
cupy the attention Of the house, and
every eye was turned upon him. Moth
ing was known Of his ability as a pub
lie speaker, but from the fact that he
was spoken of by the Amaroogia pa
pers as a rising man, and hat he had
come to the legislature with a majority
of more than a thousand over all his
competitors it was conjectured he was
q representative who would make his
mark. =
His appearance confirmed the inn
preston. He was over six feet high,
straight as an arrow, his eye was keen
and piercing, and he glanced fearlessly
about the house, as if counting a trial
of strength with it's practiced debaters.
"Mr. Speaker" he said, in a deep,
commanding voice that rang u over
the legislative chamber like the death
knell of everything fraudulent, cor
rupt and degrading in American poll
ties, 81 wish, sir, to give notice that

The hands that held the gun slowly
relaxed. The gun stock slipped from
the shoulder and rested against Big
Dolph's breast. The finger that held
the trigger was nervous. the gun
slipped to the ground.
For a minute Dolph watched the
scene within. He felt a mean, wicked,
selfish man. The evil thoughts had
gone. He heard Haggard saying, sooth-
ingly:
big Dolph will be home soon"
The moonshiner threw open the door
and walked into the oom His big
arms held the fragile little woman
close to his breast. Great teardrops
gushed from his eyes. Feebly she tried
to put out her hand to his. Her fever
ish eyes closed, and, like a sleepy child,
she murmured:
"Dolph will be home soon!'
He kissed the thin lips long after
they had grown cold, and, when at last
he was persuaded to lay the m~otioniess
form of Maidie back upon her bed, he
turned and faced Haggard.

into each others eyes, from which tears
were streaming, and their hands met
in hearty clasp.-Robert L. Atkinson,

her hands in utter helplessness.
"Oh, he went away without kissing
me! He didn't kiss me. Bring him
back. You took him away-bring him
back"
Haggard gently pushed her back.
He spoke to her tenderly. "Be quiet,
Maidie, and sleep. I'll bring him back.
He's coming now. I'm so sorry that
he ever went away
1t would give him more pleasure
than ever, now, to kill the lying
scoundrel. He had not won her heart,
but was trying to deceive her. He
stood still with the gun pointed
straight at Haggard, waiting for more.
Maidie grew quieter, and, fixing her
eyes gratefully upon Haggard, said:

Of course, Dolph and the two Dex-
tiers were convicted. The sentence of
the court was nine months in the At
lanta Jail for each. They murmured a
little at fl rst, but after that they set
tied down TO that philosophical resig-
nation to the inevitable which is easier
to a mountain moonshiner than any
other class of the human family.
For a few days Dolph was sullen
and downcast. His fierce moods were
sure guarantees of his being left in
peace. When a boy, he had been nick
named Big Dolph on account of his
superior strength, and the revenue
prisoners were quick to recognize his
physical superiority. After a few
weeks he became jovial and compan-

Medical Magnetism.

Doctor Frederick Peterson, a New
York expert in nervous diseases, has
been making series of careful expert.
ments to determine the value of mag.
netism in the therapeutics of neurotic
disorders, and has just published the re-.
suits in the New York Medical Journal.
Considering all that Doctor Charcot has
said upon the beneflcent influences of
magnetism on the human system, it is a
little odd to have Doctor Peterson assert
that the human organism is in no wise ap-
preciably affected by the most powerful
magnets known to science. The ordinary
mag nets used in medicine have purely
suggestive or physic effect, and would in
all probability be quite as useful if made
of wood" 1t seems to be the old case

How to Guess q Woman's Are.

A. volume of memoirs has Just been
published giving the experiences of a
French President of Assizes. It bears
curious testimony to the inaccuracy of
women on the subject of their own ages.
As the writer's information is from tn,
calender, he speaks only of the criminal
classes. The only instances in which he
finds correct dates given by women are
when they are under twenty-five or
over eighty five. At these periods OF
life, he says, they are to be trusted.
At all other periods the sure controllin.
tendency is to understate. The magis.
trate has been able to give a rule for
guidance. He finds that female prison.
ers invariably state their ages as twenty
nine, thirty nine, forty-nIne or fifty.nine
and from this remarkable circumstance
he deduces his rule. If their ages are in
the forties, they bodily set them down in
the thirties, but conscience asserting
itself, they keep as near the truth as they
can and fix them at thirty-nine. Whether
male criminals do the same the magistrate
does not stste.-London News.

We find in water the only tireless
agent that works in the modification of
continents; and instead of being the
great renovator Of the land, as it is pop
alarly conceived, it is the great de-
stroyer. The destruction of ancient
Rome has been attributed to time. But
1t was due simply to the moisture of the
atmosphere working thro Igh chemical
agencies. 1t was water, invisible but
penetrating even the very stones of the

ancient grade. But 1t works not alone

But there is much to ad nlre and COM
mend in their character. The natives
are amable, honest and generous, and
have certainly shown themselves sus-
ceptible of intellectual and moral eleva.
tion.
Physically they are of good stature,
active and well made. The descendants
OF the chiefs are usually large men and
exceed in height the average European.
All are experts in swimming, and are
good fishermen aud horsemen. Fishing
is their usual mode of living.
The native women have rich olive
compilations, well-developed forms,
black, glossy balr, and large, lustrons
eyes, and many of them may be consid-
cred beautiful. They dress in gay
colored ho!oSus, a sort of gown, and
wear wreaths, or, as they term it, leis,
of flowers.
In his food the Hawaiian native still
clings to the native fashion which be-
longs to his primitive condition. His
menu consists of poi, boiled or baked
taro and raw fish. Poi is sort of stew
that smells worse than the rankest lin
berger cheese, but which isu't SO bad
after all to the taste. Taro is tropical
fruit, from which taro -four is made.
While the native male is making a few
dollars at fishing, his spouse earns
tride, too, by the lomi lomi treatment,
in which the native woman is an expert.
The term really stands for what is known
in civilization as massage, the natives
from time immemorial being experts in
its manipulation.
Although small in numbers, the
American in Hawaii "gets there" every
time. He owns four-ifths of Hawaiian
wealth, nine tenths of her foreign con-
merce, aud carries in his ships eight
tenths of her freight.
Still further, it must be remembered
that the Hawaiian Islands have, by their
strategic opposition, the positive control
of the commerce of the Pacific Ocean,
which will be enormously increased
when the Nicaragua Canal shall be COM
pleted.
The United States already by treaty
holds possession of the splendid Ha-
waiian harbor OF Pearl River, which is
the best place to occupy until actual an.
nexation is established.
Hawaii is well equipped with news
papers. There are two daily English
papers, and one daily Hawaiian paper,
called Ka Holomua, meaning the Ad-
vance. There is another daily Hawaiian
sheet, which is called Ka Leo Ka
Lahui or, The Voice of the People, and
then there are monthly Chinese, Portu-
guese, English, German and Spanish pa
pers, catering to the wonderful cosmo.
politan population that make up the
100, 900 souls on the island.
There are eight oil these islands, which
have an area of GAO square miles, OF
about 500 square miles larger than Con-
necticut and Rhode Island put together.
They are situated 2100 miles from San
Francisco, 1910 miles from Auckland,
New Zealand; 44S4 miles from Australia,
3440 miles from Yokohama, japan, and
1900 miles from China.
In general character the islands are
alike. They consist of mountains, vol
canic in nature, scanned with valleys and
gorges, with rolling plains lying between
and along the foot of the mountains.
The five principal islands are Hawaii,
from which the group is named, Maui,
Oahu, Kauai and Molukai. Honolulu il
located at Oahu.
