To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
The Eastern mails were little
slow to arrive down here last week,
and / have only now had the
pleasure to read droll article in
the New York Sun for August IL.
headed Hawaiian Notes.
The Sun says in this article
FAC. which has not been he e.ofo7e
Known, perhaps, is that Mr.. Norihoffs son
is in the employ of Mr.. Spreceels a San
Francisco.
This argument for annexIng
Hawaii, strong as it may appear
to that prig's mind, is at least
weakened, l suppose, by the fact
that. like so many other of the
prig's arguments. 1t lacks the
basis of truth. | have no son,
nor any other relative, in the
employ of Mr.. Spreckels in San
Francisco" or elsewhere.
If any one. therefore, has been
converted to annexation by this
so-called fact not heretofore
known of the Sun, he is now
clearly at liberty to fall from
grace.
The Sun further gives an acco-
unit of certain delegate of the
Hawaiisn Patriotic League,
which may or may not be correct.
[ will leave them to answer fol
themselves, as | know very slight
" only two of them. The Sun
Is, perhaps, no better informed
about them than it is about me-
But 1T says
Mr. Nordtotf is los'rg his wits, for under
no other circumstances would he have appe-
aled to such men as spoons rs for his chara-
cter.
Here. unfortunately, Is it out
again. / did not appeal to them
nor to any one ''as sponsors for
nv character" and Hawaii need
not be annexed on that ground.
/ don't mind telling thu Sun that
these testimonials were gre at
an complete surprise to me, and
for this reason:-When it became
known that WAS soon to leave
Honolulu for the United States [
was privately informed by friend
that tho native people were
planning To offer their grateful
thanks to the HERALD for taxing
their part against annexation by a
great open air demonstration, with
speeches and feast, or lUdW, in
the native fashion, and with gif's
for Mr.. Bennett and to me as his
correspondent.
Now | know that Mr.. Bennett 10
not fond of demonstrations, and |
am Of his mind in that matter. /
therefore immediately called to me
two native men influential among
tne.r people, and desired them to
60 at once and make it known that
they must not make any demons
trstion; that it would be disagree
able to Mr.. Bennett and TO me also,
id l required these gentlemen 10
report 10 me that the project was
given up. This they did, saying
that it was great disappointment
to their people, but they would

Thieving Characteristic of the Mink.
From Harper's Young People

Probably the most cunning of all ami
mails is the mink. Its propensity for
thieving is marvellous, and the methods
of stealing and the manner of hiding the
proceeds of it's robberies are unique in the
history of the lower species. l do not
refer here to the depredations of the
mink among poultry; for they only resort
to the memories when the waters are
frozen, or a supply of fish is unobtainable.
l allude only to the instructive love of
thieving which is a prime characteristic
of this valuable little animal, and l shall
illustrate this feature by giving two ex-
amples of the skill of the mink when en-
gagged in a robbery.
Two gentlemen were fishing on one of
the rivers of Maine. The fish were quite
plenty, and as fast as one was caught it
was thrown behind on the grass. After
some time one of the gentlemen thought
he would take rest, and at the same
time examine his capture. But he could
not find a single fish. He charged his
friend with having played him a trick;
but the friend was rs surprised as was he.
They now determined to watch their
next fish, and their astonishment was
unbounded when they saw gmink ran
out from a hole near by, snatch up the
fish, and carry it off to a hole, where they
afterwards found their entire capture
cunningly hidden under some dead leaves.
In the same manner the mink steals
the game which the sportsmen shoot. On
one occasion a gentleman shot a wild
duck, but before the dogs could get to it
a mink had stolen it, and.carriedito off to
hole in the frozen snow, which one mink
had prepared while the other was watch
ing for the opportunity to steal the sports
mans game.
Notwithstanding this peculiar charac-
teristic the mink is a brave as well as
ferocious little fellow, and is only excelled
in these two qualities by the ernine. He
seems to have a particular aversion for
the muslk-rat, and although the latter is
generally more than double his size the
mink attacks him fearlessly, and always
wins the battle, after which he drags his
dead enemy to some hiding-place, as in
the cases of the fish and wild duck They
are found in almost every state in the
Union, but most frequently IN Maine and
the states bordering the great lakes.
They are easily domesticated, and Mr..
Ressedue, of Verona, Oneida county, New
York, has nearly hundred of these in
teresting little animals, which he has
trained as ratters-after the same fashion
that ferrets are trained in England They
are also bred and reared in captivity for
their fur, which is very valuable and
forms an important part in the furs Of
commerce.

BIRTH OF A NUBIAN B ABY.
Dusky Women on the Plaisance Hold
High Carnival-Plight of the Doc
From the Chicago Record.

tor.
From the Chicago Record.
Black-faced Nubian women set up a
shout of Joy around solitary tent in the
Nubian village early yesterday morning.
It was new species of joyful exultation
and IL caused some excitement. Column
bian guards ran up, but the big, brawny
women chased them away. Others came,
but went of, dispersed by the half-frenzied
women. Finally some one found out the
cause of the noise and sent in haste for
DR.. Hill Mantell, of the Columbian hos
pital corps. 1t was just O'Clock as the
doctor, with his instruments hastily
gathered together, left for the Nubia viii
lage.
When the physician arrived there he
saw all the women of the village dancing
wildly around the solitary tent. Several
of them were beating to-n-toms, and the
excitement was intense. The doctor at
tempted TO enter but the women refused
TO allow him to pass. He tried TO explain,
but they refused to listen. While they
were wrangling the faint cry of an infant
was heard The women all set up another
howl, while two Of them went into the
tent. In a few seconds they reappered,
bearing a newborn, inky-black baby in
dirty dishpan. The young Nubian was
passed from woman to woman, and an
other dance begun. Then some water
was procured and the child received its
first shower-bath DIR. Mantell again
tried to enter the tent, but the women,
this time, not only refused to let him in,
but drove him of the premises. The doc
tor was much chagrined at first, but later
he laughed at the whole occurrence. He
declared firmly, however, that, "To-mor-
row will 90 back and get either certif-
icate of birth or of death"

pn1LADEIPH1A on SUNDAY.

Speaking of Philadelphia reminds me
that you could no more buy drink
of beer there on Sunday than you could
fly. Not long ago Philadelphia invited
some New Workers over to the Quaker
City for Sunday. When the guests had
assembled it transpired that there was no
liquor in the house. He and eNew
Yorker went out with a valise and for
two hours it is the solemn truth that they
vainly endeavored to purchase something
drinkable other than Schuylkill water
There are places it seems in Philadelphia
where liquor is surreptitiously vended,
but there is a system of free masonry
connected with them, not knowing which
you are not sold to. "Speak easies' is
the highly captivating Philadelphia name
for these esta blishments. Well, after a
vain hunt the Philadelphia and the New
Yorker returned to the thirsty guests.
The only thing to do was for all hands to
take train for New York, which they
did, Philadelphia and all, and every
body could then get drink and to spare.
