The Hawaiian Death PRAYER.

Upon the minds of such people as
the Hawaiians were, while under their
ancient form Of religion, it was but nat
ural that superstition should gain a
rooted hold. The most curious and eff
fective belief to which they were made
subject was that a man can be prayed to
death-a belief that survives among the
natives to the present day. For the sue
cess Of the tragical death prayer it was
necessary to obtain some hair or piece
of finger nail of the intended victim. A
priest was then employed to use incanta-
ton and prayer for his destruction. Al
ways informed of the doom that the
priest was invoking upon him, the vic
tim generally pined away and died.
There is u story current that an Eng
Hshman in the service of Kamehameha
|, having incurred the displeasure Of a
priest, the latter proceeded to remove
him by the death-prayer process. The
Anglo-Saxon, however, set up an opposi-
ton altar in derision, and jokingly pro
claimed that he intended to pray the
priest to death. Alarmed at the threat
and overwhelmed at the failure of his
own lamentations, the sorcerer died, prov
ing by his death his faith III his religion.

Trained Fish.

Fish have many times been taught TO
perform tricks, and it would appear as
If they had much more intelligence than
is attributed to them Mr. j. A Bailey
of circus fame once had two brook trout
N a small aquarium in his private resi-
dence that would jump out of the water
and take flies held between the foreinger
and thumb and would also ring little
bell when they required food They
would also leap over little bars of wood
placed about two inches above the sur
face of the water.
1t is very simple matter TO teach the
fish these tricks. At first little tower
containing tiny, sweet toned silver bell
was fastened TO the iron work of the
aquarium with piece of string attached
TO the tongue of the bell extending into
the water where the trout were. On the
loose end of the string an insect or other
tempting morsel was placed, which the
fish would at once seize, and pulling the
cord the bell in the tower would natu-
rally tinkle. After this had been re-
peated several days the fish We're left
without food for some little time until
they made the discovery that they could
obtain it by pulling at the string to
which the delicacies had been attached
This they never failed to do ever after
ward when they were hungry and as
that was nearly all the time the little
bell was constantly tingling as the fish
were continually pulling the cord, and
it was quite pretty and novel sight

One of the Best Cams Ever
Witnessed in Honolulu.

The base ball season was inaug-
urated on last Saturday afternoon
before a fair-sized crowd. The
Hawaiis and the Crescents were
the opposing teams. Both clubs
have introduced some new players
since the close Of last season, with
the result that the lovers of the
game will see much better ball
playing this year than formerly.
Captain Thompson of the Ha-
waits has selected a good nine, and
if his club does not get badly Grip
pied before the close of the season
they will stand a chance of getting
the championship pennant.
The Hawaiis played the first
eight innings Of the game in an
almost faultless manner, but in the
the ninth their good work was
spoiled by the pitcher, who threw
the ball over the first baseman's
head, thereby allowing the Cres-
cents to pile up three runs that
otherwise they would not have
made. This error caused the game
to be widened out, as it required
twelve innings to be played before
the contest was settled.
The Crescent nine has also been
changed in several places. 1t now
has Chan. Wilder and Hay Wode-
house who occupied the positions
of catcher and center field respect
lively. Both men are well-known
players here and they add strength
to the popular Crescents. The boys
played with the same life which
characterized their last seasons
work. They batted Kaae freely but
the Hawaiis supported their pitcher
in such splendid style that the
Crescents were not allowed to make
run for seven consecutive in
nings. George Angus pitched in
good form. He struck out seven
men and he gave but two bases On
balls.
On the whole the first game of
the season was good one and if
the boys put up the same quality
of ball in the future a revival of
public interest in the game will
take place.
The following is the official score ::

He Was His Own Grandfather.

4 OF all genealogical curiosities the one
set forth below is probably the oldest
a singular piece of reasoning to prove
that man may be his own grandfather!
Here it is: There was widow (Anne)
and her daughter Jane) and man
(George) and his son (denry), This wild
ow married the son. and the daughter
married the father. The widow was
therefore mother gin law to her hus-
bands father and grandmother to her
own husband. By this husband she had
a son David, to whom she was OF course
great-grandmother Now, the son Of a
great-grandmother must be grandfather
or granduncle to the person to whom
his mother was or is great-grandmother,
but in this instance Anne was great
grandmother to him DAVID, therefore
David could not be other than his own
grandfather.-St Louis Republic
