THE REVOLUTION IN HAWAII.

"THE Hawaiian monarchica sys
tenn of government is hereby abros
gated" Slch was the simple lans
guage in which a Committea ofPub-
lie Safety, by a bloodless revolution
on January II, deposed the Queen
of Hawaii and established a repub-
lie. There was no violence, and
the only show of force consisted in
the landing of a couple of hundred
marines and blue jackets from the
U. S. S~Boston for the protection
of American life and property.
A provisional President, with
the very Yankee name Of S, mu !
Ballard Dole, established a ternpor-
AIRY government and Immediately
despatched an embassy to negotiate
for the annexation Of the Islands to
the United States. The emis2aries
arrived at San Francisco last Sat-
urday, bringing the fist news OF
the revolution, and proceeded at
once to Washington President
Harrison. without waiting for their
arrival at the Capital, ordered the
flagship Mohican from San Franz
cisco to reinforce the Boston at
Honolulu, and directed that the
U. S. ships Ranger, Adams and
Monterey be prepared to follow gu
short notice.
All the representatives of for
eign powers in Hawaii, except the
British minister, have recognized
the new Government, For once,
as it happened, there was not a
single English man-otswar in those
waters when the crisis CANT; but
no doubt a feet will soon be on the
spot.
In the meantime American in
terests are to the fore. and if the
Government at Washington suss
tain them, Hawaii will either be-
come American territory, or, what
is almost equally important, it will
escape being the prey Of English
greed.
That the late revolution was
necessary to forestall a similar pro.
ceeding or the part of British in'
trigLers, is easily proved. The
heir apparent to Queen Liliuokal-
ami was educated in England, is
married to an Englishman, and
has an active pro-British following
The ex-Qneen, whether impellec
by English leanings OF the desire
for personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, ha'
been attempting to overthrow the
wisely liberal policy established BY
her predecessors. The persons mos
interested in the advancement a
the Islands have asserted the "sa'

other means had failed. that is tn,

RobhIng nIrda, Nests.

Boys who rob birds nests do not al
ways realize what cruel thing this
IL to do, says writer In the Buffalo
News, / used not to think much
about it myself until an incident oc-
Cured that showed me how keenly
our feathered friends mourn the loss
Of their homes One spring two lin
nets built their nest in some bushes
near my window. We were all very
much Interested in the wee home,
and when we found four little eggs
inside the nest took every precaution
to prevent 1t from being disturbed.
But one morning when we went as
usual to peep at the nest we found
some cruel hand had robbed and de-
stroyed it, We felt very sorry, but
thought the brides would perhaps
build again. Alas, mol When they
returned and found their beloved
home broken up, their grief was pain
full to see. Uttering all the whilO
the most piteous cries, they franti,
cally flew in circles high above tho
nest Then they hoped all round
and beneath the bushes, thinking, !
suppose, poor mites, that the eggs
had fallen out. For two days they
continued their search, and on the
third we thought they had left, as
we did not notice them about, We
we've partly right, for the father bird
had really gone and did not return
again, but the body Of his poor wee
mate was found by us, chill and life,
less, on the ground by the bushes,
and we felt quite sure then that the
loss of her dear home had broken heI

Housekeeping on Fifth Avenue,

There Is pleasing side to the
warm season In New York. The
swells have gone to watch the break
ers at the seaside, or have retreated
to the mountains to get nearer the
sun and keep cool in high attitudes.
They could not leave their homes I'M
guarded, and are paying big prices
for decent occupants. June Is the
month of roses and marriages, and
there are many brides and grooms
spending the summer In fine brown
stone houses on Fifth and Madison
avenues. 1t Is no longer q case Of
Glove In a COTTAGE" with meals for
gotten and rent always due. As much
as $40 per month Is paid to guardians
who will live in the homes of the
rich. Servants not needed In summer
homes, but reserved for the fall, are
given to young people who will occu-
by vacated homes. Couples get a
start in life, with bank account be-
gun, and spend their honeymoon
surrounded with every luxury. The
innovation is reciprocal arrange
ment that suggests the millennium.
In the past, servants left to guard
households entertained the policeman
on the beat and his friends. Fine
homes were soiled by muddy feet;
plumbing was disorganized, through
the stealing Of lead pipe; wine cellars
were dried, and an out-of-town sum-
mer sojourn meant a return to a
ruined home. To-day, with love
guarding, beautiful homes are made
more beautiful, and master and pro-
tector are equally pleased and bene-
flied. The owner goes to the cOun-

advantage of recreation, and the lat
ter enjoys the comfort that could not
be obtained in any other way. New

FemaIe PIrntes.

Two of the most extraordinary OF
the pirates who formerly scourged the
waters of the West Indies were wom-
en-. One OF them was Mary Read.
She was a native of England, and
had been dressed as a boy from child
hood for the purpose Of hiding
family secret. At one time she
served on a British war vessel, where
her sex was not suspected. Finally
she took passage on ship bound for
Cuba, which was captured by pirate.
Having nothing better to do she
adopted the plratical trade. One OF
her cut-throat shipmates was Annie
Bonny who was likewise disguised
as a man. Anne, not imagining that
Mary was female, fell in love with
her. revealing her own sex. Mary
was thus obliged to make q similar
revelation. These two extraordinary
persons took their part with the men
in every conflict. The facts regard
ing them are perfectly well authenti-
Gated, While fighting bravely, their
ship was at length taken by a war
vessel. They were tried for their
lives at Jamaica, where Mary died In
prison. 1t is not certain what be-
came Of Anne, but she was not ex-
eCuted, Globe Democrat.

How the Indian PrnYs.

"Prayer ia the souls sincere desire,
unuttered or expressed" And the
manner Of expressing desire may diff
fer widely The Indian may be as
religious as Is the Presbyterian, yet
he never kneels when he prays. He
never addresses the Deity by word of
mouth at all. Yet he asks for the
blessings he needs, and asks for them
with as much faith and as much
reverence as does his whittier brother.
They want a good corn CROP and
they gather a handful Of green twigs
or grasses, bind them together with
a reverent faith that the Deity is
willing and able to help them. They
lay the emblems or hang them in a
place where the sun will shine upon
them, and leave, assured that their
prayer has been heard, 1t may not
be answered The corn may not
prosper right away, but they are In
no wise discouraged. They bind to.
gether another emblem and offer ID
In another place. Some places have
particular favor. 1t is believed the
Deity sees them place them there
better than in some other place, 1t
is simply the Christians idea OF
sanctuary In another form.

sizzard.

Baltimore American /: The word
"slzzard" has been invented to apply
to such weather as Baltimore has
had. 1t is not a great addition to
the English language, but, at the
same time, 1t has an expressiveness
about it that will probably make 1t
very popular before the summer is
over.
Rome IN. W Sentinel: A new
monstrosity Of languages the alleged
word "sizzard." 1t Is a combination
OF Dsizzle" and "bllzzard." 1t means
one Of those rare June days that are
decidedly well done. In construction
it is as bad as ~electrocution," but
the word will probably some day have
place In the dictionary. English
as she is developed certainly discloses
fearful and wonderful characteristics
On scorching day we can appreciate
the "sIz" part Of the new word, but
the last syllable is so suggestive of a
winter in North Dakota as to seem
out of place. II peculiar features Of

described by words ending in "zard"

An Indian State.

One of rhe most interesting re,
ports to be made to Congress when il
meets in special session, or at the
latest, at its regular session in De,
cember, will be that Of the special
commission now on visit to Indian
Territory. The object of the investi'
gation which the commission has
undertaken is to ascertain the willing,
ness on theone hand and the capacity
on the other of the tribes and indi,
vidual residents of Indian Territor5
to form State government. There
is little doubt that this territory
must in time ask for statehood, and
as little doubt that many of the In,
dians, as for example the Cherokees,
are at the present time fully capable
Of self-Rovernment.
The Choctaws, Osages and Chicka,
saws have also made remarkable
progress in civilization,
Whether such progress might not
be more rapidly made under respon,
sible State government is a question
Of much more than ordinary interest.
The idea of a stngle central govern,
ment for the territory is nearly q
quarter of century old. AS long
ago as 1870 a convention of delegates
from the various tribes agreed on the
general plan Of such a government,
and 1t was only the difficulty Of ar
ranging a basis Of legislative repre-
sentation that caused the scheme tc
fall through.
Whatever may be said of the saw,
age instincts and warlike tendencies
Of the Indian, this at least Is indls
putable The tribes now inhabiting
the territory have given the govern.
ment no trouble, and have main.
tanned, sometimes under great provo.
cation, peace with the whites. They
have shown themselves adapted fol
self.government; they have learned
the use of the ballot, and statehood
must be given them, in any event, In
the not distant future. Will not the
comforting Of this dignity within the
next few months go far toward solv.
ing the so-called Indian problem?
The report of the commission may be
expected to CIV light. - Boston

The Law of Postal Cards.

1t is a mistake to suppose that any
card with handwriting upon it bear
ing a cent stamp can be lawfully
transmitted by mail as if it were an
official postal card. The first para
graph of the 273d section of the pos
tai laws and regulations runs thus:
postal cards cannot be issued by
private parties. All cards, other
than those issued by the department,
containing any writing are subject
to letter postage; but if cards con-
tain printed matter only, so as to
constitute circular, but cent Is re-
quired on each of them"
When this regulation is not prop
erly complied with, there is very sure
to be a tedious delay in the transmits
sion of the card by the postofflce de-
partment. Boston Times.

Temperine Tools.

The following Is the Swiss method
for hardening cast steel for cutting
tools. Mix In suitable vessel four
parts of pulverized resin and two
parts Of train oil. Stir we'll In this
one part OF hot tallow. Into this
mixture the article to be hardened
Is plunged at low red heat, and
held there until thoroughly cooled.
Without cleaning Off, the piece Is
again put into the fire and suitably
tempered in the ordinary way. An
examination of steel thus hardened
indicates that the hardening Is deeper
and more uniformly distributed than
is commonly the case, and that the
steel is much less brittle.

A GREAT and good man has gone
on record as saying that the person
who reads the daily newspapers has
the advantage Of acquiring a practical
education that will stand him In use
for about all things he meets with In
the ordinary walks Of life. The New
York World adds to this sentiment
when it says that, frankly considered,
the increase in the habit OF news
paper reading must be adjudged to
be altogether for good and for the
enlargement and enlightenment OF
the popular mind. The newspaper
reading habit Is one which grows by
what 1t feeds on, and the newspaper
Is an apostle and missionary. More
than all other forms OF publication
combined, it cultivates the habit Of
reading, and 1t is the wide prevalence
Of that habit which causes books to
sell and circulate and gives to the
magazines the phenomenal success
they have attained In the last ten
years Our public schools teach all
our people to read. The newspaper
supplies them with profitable mat
ter for reading and stimulates Them
to make use of the key Of intelligence
furnished them by the schools.

Fraud In Marriage.

According to q recent decree Of the
Austrian courts Of law, concealment
Of age on the part of bride is sufil-
cient to invalidate the marriage.
An Austrian baron has succeeded In
obtaining an annulment of his union
In consequence Of his wifes having
pretended, at the time Of It's celebra-
tion, that she was fifteen years
younger than her real age. 1t Is the
first time on record that q marriage
has been dissolved on such grounds
as these, and were this interpreta-
ton of the law regarding fraud In
marriage to be accepted In other
civilized countries, very serious
state Of affairs would probably result

Freedom of speech has its penal
ties. When Lord Beaconst1eld was
living at Hughenden Manor he was
one day walking on the terrace, in an
easy coat and old SLOUGH hat, when
two women Of strong Gladstonite
opinions entered the, gate. Suppos-
ing him to be a keeper or gardener,
they inquired if he would show them
over the place, which he at once
undertook tn do. While they were
walking about they overwhelmed him
with questions as to the habits Of
the master of the manor, and one Of
them finally said: "Do you think
you could manage to get us sight of
