A PLUcKY YOUNG WOMAN.
No Common Tramp Could Rob the Nal
While She Had Charge.

No Common Tramp Could Rob the Mall
While She Had Charge.
Ellen Stewart, of Yarrow Valley, has
been a stage-driver for three years or
more, and her route is over twenty
miles of very rough and lonesome coun-
try. She has, says the Kansas City
journal, had adventures, of course,
since she has been at work, and more
or less serious accidents from washed
ont roads and snow-drifts, but she has
kept right on, driving every day in the
year but Sundays, and the business in
the route has increased considerably
since she has had charge of it.
She came very near being frozen to
death one night last winter, when she
was stalled in a snowdrift and found
it impossible to dig her way out, but
some farmers rescued her, and in few
days she was on the box again.
Miss Stewart has also had some
trouble from tramps. One night in the
spring one of them attempted to hold
up the stage. 1t was bright moon
light night and Ellen was late. In q
lonely part of the road where heavy
forests thanked it on either side man
suddenly stepped from behind a tree
and, catching the horses by the bits,
stopped them.
Throw out that mail bag" COM
manded the fellow, gruffly.
Miss Stewart always carried revolt
yer in convenient pocket, and in the
wink of cats eye she had the muzzle
of it squarely on the tramp's head.
see: up on that rear horse!' was the
reply that the highwayman got to his
order. The man didn't move. Get
up there or I'll shoot you" coolly said
the girl. The tramp came to the con.
clnsion that he had better obey orders
and scrambled onto the back of the
horse.
SNOW, sit still till we get to the
post Office or you'll be sorry" said the
girl, who kept the man under cover of
the revolver. In three-quarters of an
hour Miss Stewart drove up to the post
Office with the prisoner and called foi
some one to come out and take the fel
low in charge. There was a crowd
husky young farmers in the Office ant
in ten minutes the wouId-be highway
man was beyond the possibility of es
cape.
He was tried for attempting to rob
the mail and is now within the walls
of the penitentiary. For this piece of
work Miss Stewart received purse of
one hundred dollars, contributed by
the farmers along the route.

Shall We Annex Hawaii.

From the Jurnal of Finance.
When the Hawaiian question comes
before Congress, it is to be hoped that
our legislators will lay aside all partisan
thoughts and politics and look at the
question in broad spirit with the best
interests of the country at heart. There
seems to be growing public opinion
for annexation, and undou btedly this is
the wisest course ~ <e; for, with the
islands admitted territory and
ballot law enacted which would dis
franchise all illiterares, it would leave
the country for the time being in the
hands of the Intelligent community.
Then, with INSTRUMENTATION of common
schools and with the close communion
which would result from the
political change, the Sandwich
Islands would soon become Ameri-
canized. There ia no reason WHY the
native population should not become as
intelligent American citizens as the
Afro Americans are today. The
Hawaiians would have the advantage Of
being admitted to citizenship when
qualified to be such, not as in the case
CT tho Ethiopian race, when whole ma
ton in itself was made full-hedged citi-
tions. We look at the question Of an
nexation from an American standpoint
only, and think as tho various Euro
pean powers have been slicing the
weaker countries to suit themselves and
have grabbed about all that is worsh
,aking that this is our own affair.
The matter is of interest to every
business man, for tho political change
would certainly make a greater opening
for American manufacturers a more
extensive trade is bound to come and
that undertaking which is mos5 urgent,
me laying OF submarine cable TO tho
Islands, would come Of Il necessity the
moment Hawaii is transferred 10 IN
American flag. Let Congress avoid all
nasty measures, but act with nromp;-
ness and settle the question, thus
81 minating 81 danger from a dipiom a.
ical commission.
