FROM DANCING FLOOR TO SURF

Men and Maidens an Honolulu Take .
Swim During Intermissions OF Ball.
81 had the pleasure Of attending one
Of the unique entertainmentS-a swim
ming party - that are q feature of
Honolulu, and are probably known no
where else in the world" writes a cor
respondent of the Chicago Daily Inter
Ocean. cit vas given at Waikiki, a
seaside of the Royal Hawaiian
hotel. The apartment known as the
lanai looks directly upon the sea, the
waves breaking beneath the windows
and against the steps of the piaZzas. In
the rear of the lanai is a large apart
mcnt for dancing, and opening from
this an immense dining--oom. The
masculine guests were, with a few OK
captions, officers from our own men of
Garnett, now in the harbor-handsome
young fellows, who cleared their
throats a great deal, curtailed the IRIS
piteously. and danced with much mus
cular vigor. They did not possess the
ease of manner peculiar to their Amer
lean fellow officers.
"There was first q waltz or two, then
the party separated, Disappeared, and
reappeared clad in bathing suits. The
guests then moved in procession across
the long pier, and the young girls,
clasping their hands above their heads,
1eaped into the surf, accompanied by
their escorts. They swan and dived in
the clear water like mermen and MGR
maids. The southern cross rose above
the horizon; palms were outlined in
the moonlight against the clear sky; the
surf dashed its white foam against the
reefs beyond the lagoon; the mir was
filed with the fragrance of n thousand
flowers; the singing boys sat upon the
pier, and their wild music made a fit
ting accompaniment to one of the
strangest scene l ever beheld.
CATER n time the swimmers repaired
to their rooms, redonned their evening
dress, and the ball went on rs if it had
never been interrupted. 1t was diff
fcult to realize that the young women
in their white gowns, sashes and
French-heeled shoes were the same
whose white arms and bare feet had
been battling with the breakers half
an hour before. The dancing was fol-
lowed by supper, then the waltzing and
singing were resumed, and the morning
was we'll on its way before the guests
made their adieus and took their de-
parture."

LIVING ~EAROMETERS.
A Young Girl Who Crows Violent When
Storms Approach.

A Young Girl Who Grown Violent When
Storms Approach.
Two very curious natural baromctars
have been lately described by observers
of such things. The first consists of q
half-pint glass, half filled with water, q
lccch, and n piece of muslin, The lecch
is put into the water, and the muslin Is
tied over the top of the glars. so that
the little creature cannot escape. When
the weather IS to be fine the lccch will
remain coiIcd up and motiontcSs OF the
bottom of the glass, under tho water.
When it leaves the water md crawls to
tho top Of the glass ra.n may be ex-
pccted, and wet weather viii continue
rs long as the leech remains there. If
there is to be q heavy wind the little
creature will comfort itself violently,
and squirm abo ut in the liveIicct fash
ion, and n thunderstorm may be looked
for when he seems to be suffering from
commissions.
The other strange barometer is found
in the person of a young girl living in
Pennsylvania, who when tho weather
is to be clear and sunshiny has q re-
markably pleasant disposition, but who
becomes morose and disaErecabIe if
clouds arc approaching, and who fore
tells storms by becoming almost I'M
manageable. Sometimes she has to be
tied up when the storms increase in
force, but when they become milder SO
docs she, until finally with the return
ing sun she is peaceful once more.
Neither OF these strange barometcrs is
likely to prove popular substitutes in
cities for the ordinary instrument that
does similar prophetic work, or on the
farms for the farmers rheumatism or
pet corn, by means of which the changes
of the weather are there customarily
foreto1d. :

Chinese Mourning.

In full mourning among the Chinese
the black strands of the queue are re-
placed by white ones and in second
mourning by light blue or green. 1t is
an objectionable breach of etiquette for
an inferior to enter the presence of a
superior with his pig-tail wound round
his neck or head, and the greatest insolt
n man can offer another is to pdll his
pig-tail. 1t seems very odd t. sec sail

.sThe American SOLDIER

The August number of the above
magazine even exceeds the promises
of the July number. The battle fol
the old veterans and pensioners of the
Civil War is wagcd with trenchant
pen. Copperheads and traitors are ar
raigned in no meek and mild manner.
Cleveland. Hoke Smith and the
'.Neteran-I Administration
are shown up with Il fearlessness which
is refreshing. The absurd charges of
frauds in the pensions of the old he
roes are riddled and ridiculed. The
malice, hatred and unfaiIness of the
assailants of the old Union soldiers is
demonstrated. Articles from writers
Iike Col. John A. Cockerill and BEN

merit A magnificent colored photo
