The Hawaiian Language.

Hawaii! The very name itself is but a
softly breathed vocaliZation--it does not
contain single real cOnsonant: and the en-
tire language is made up on a principle Just
directly opposite ON the Welsh: whereas
the latter is nearly ell c9nsonants, the
former Is nothing but vowels. 4 traveller
graphically desert es the language of the
islands as having no backbone Say soma
Of the words over In your softess tones-for,
be your voice never so soft, it cannot equal
the dulcet notes of these bRrbarians-and l
think you Will agree with me that The
stories told US are true" writes Mary Gray
Umsted, in the April NeiU Peterson.
"' Lamaina, the word for an old resident:
here is only tbs consonant at the beginning,
and the installation at intervals to hold the
vowel sounds together in some sort Of con-
sistency. This ia even true of the name of
that mighty terrible monster, the burning
volcano, whether you take its ordinary APP
pellation kilAuea or its NEUROLOGICAL desig-
nation Hale~mau-mau, which In our harsher
tongue means the house of everlasting Are.
The relic of saYagery and heath endom the
forbidden dance 'huli-huli, suggests nothing
unpleasant by the vowels and liquids of its
appellative. Say over to yourself the name
Of King Kalakaua's predecessor, Lunalino,
above oil, and of the great hero Of the
islands, Kamehameha, the lonely one,' and
then contrast them with our own words !!
Even the comparatively harsh X is softened
by their flexible organs into a pleasanter
sound, while the music Of their voices-such
music as poetry and the tradition associate
with italian voices. but which, alas! actual
experience does not verify-must be some
thing like the sounds which lulled the Lotos-
eaters into forgetfulness of their fatherand.
Curiously euouth-or rather not curiouslY
IL one remembers the eternal spring time
in which the islanders dwell-the Hawaiian
language contains no word for weather:
they have no need of weather bureaus and
weather prophets. aud therefore can keep
their faith In their kind little longer than
we unfortunates who have 80 much of that
Objectionable article. Surely here are all
the physical and outward conditions for the
promised celestial city"

KNox's NEW VENTURE.

J. Annoy Knox is running a weekly
paper up IN Mount Vernon. 1t is a very
good weekly, indeed, but hardly the kind
OF occupation, one would suppose, for a
man who was once the moving spirit OF
Ierds Siftings.
There was a time when Knox, Sweet &
Griswold, each drawing q big salary be-
sides, used to get together every week and
divide up the weeks surplus of the paper on
the most primitive plan. They were max
ing plenty Of money and taking care of 1t
after rather bohemian fashion. Such
methods could not LAST. The paper is now
run on rather businssslike principles. By
the way, l believe Daniel Drew used sys-
tenn OF bookkeeping as primitive.

New YORK, April S.-There viii be great
times in New York next month when the
Press Club fair opens. fancy it will be
the biggest thing Of the kind ever seen in
the metropolis.
Men and women 60 around with note
books begging for it. This Is a nuisance,
but humanity as a rule hasn'T any kick
coming. The newspaper men help along
good projects Of every sort more than any
other agency can do, and you can't blame
them for taking their turn once IN 3 while
The Press Club is not wholly social or pro-
fessional organization, but does a good deal
Of charitable work.
That wasn't what started out to say. At
abe fair all the pretty women 10 town
nearly, will sell things. The building will
be enormous, the crowds immense. The
Baby Ruth Sunshine League and fifty other
queer named organizations will have booths.
Tho big attraction, though, will be a COM
plete newspaper office. A complete daily
newspaper will be printed every day Of the
fair on modern press and after modern
methods. The copy" will be written,
edited, set up and printed in full sight OF
everybody, and there will be a crowd OF
onlookers all the time, fancy.
There's nothing that interests people any
more than the working OF machinery. To
see the wheels go round is as dear an occu-
patton to grown folks as to Helsn's babies.

Col. THos. SMITH, of Virginia,
has been appointed Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of New
Mexico, and John B. I'll. Heming-
way, of Mississippi, U. S. District
Attorney. The appointment of
Col. Smith, who is well known
throughout the Territory, having
held the office of U. S. District At
torney under the former Cleveland
administration, came to him in the
nature of a compromise and is
well received by the Territorial
Democracy. But Hemingway; his
appointment is bitter pill to
swallow-apparently to everyone,
irrespective of party. 1t was
thought and generally conceded
that w. B. Childers, of Albuquer-
que, would be Cleveland's selec-
ton for this important office. Mr..
Childers had the unanimous en-
dorsement of his entire party, of
whom he has been prominent
and trusted leader for years past
and it seemed only fitting that his
valuable services should be re-
warded with the lucrative office to
which he was the most popular
aspirant. He stands foremost
amongst New Mexico's legal talent
and he was eminently fitted and
certainly deserved the appoint
ment. AS for Hemingway, who is
a son-in-law of Senator George, of
Mississippi, he has been living at
Clayton, N. M, for a short time,
in order to acquire a residence
here, and is entitled to our con-
gratulations on his 'pull' with the
administration. Two outsiders at
one shot is rather rough on the
home Democrats.

THE practice of some newspaper
men in deliberately stealing arti.
cles, from one half to column in
length, from other papers without
giving due credit, and passing
them oft as their own production,
as was the case Of an evening

tain long article from the EAGLE, is
n mean trick. The man who will
do il would rob n hen roost. His

has been attending the school for instruc-
ton of officers of the U. s. army at Ft.
Leavenworth, Kansas, arrived here on
the 5th. He will take Lieut.. Settles
place as Second Lieut.. of G company.
The Trans Atlantic Pacific Sciopticon
company, of Little Rock, Ark, have been
giving magic lantern exhibitions in the
Post hall during the week. Their lantern
is one of the finest of its kind, and the
scenes of Columbus life which they
illustrate are exceptionally fine. We
have also had the pleasure of hearing d
phonograph grind out "After the Ball"
and "Ta-rara in the Morning" Thus
between the magic lantern, phonograph
and plenty of Schlitz's export, life at the
Post has taken a very "frisky" turn.

FROM a compilation made by
the United States mint August l6,
1893, it is shown that Great Brit
ain holds gold coin TO the amount
of S550,000,000; Germany has
$600,000,000 and France, SS00,000-
900. Great Britain has in silver,
Sl00,000,000; Germany, S211 ,000,-
900, and France, S700,000,000.
While France has more than dou-
bic the silver possessed by Great
Britain and Germany combined,
she at the same time has one-third
more gold than either of them.
What then becomes of the argu-
ment of the gold bugs that n large
silver circulation drives gold out
of the country? The silver coin
of France is based on the ratio of
