SOME SUBJECTS FOR DEBATE.
English University Students Discussing
 Curious Variety of Questions.


 Curious Variety of Questions.
 The college debating societies at Cambridge, England, seem to discuss a curious variety of questions. A recent list of motions, as given by the Toronto Mail, includes the following oliO of oddities: At Christ's, That Robinson ought not to have been frightened at the footprint in the sand" which eX- cited great variety of opinions, and ultimately was lost by twenty-six votes against lG ayes, eight auditors remain ing undecided. At Jesus, the still more startling proposition was moved, That radicalism spells ruin;" which was, of course, carried by large majority. At Queens disapproval of ''Woman's en- crOachmentS upon mans dominion" was carried by nineteen to thirteen. And at St. Johns the heresy, That univer- sity education units a man for practical life," was rejected by twenty-six against six. At Kings the society found them selves equally divided as to the truth of the assertion, That art had ceased to exist" At Trinity hall it was decided That political prisoners should wear the prison dress" At Pembroke a resolution, That personal liberty is too much restricted in this university, '' was, singular to say, rejected. Sydney college voted, by a large majority, That the learned professions are not yet played out" and Cavendish, also, by a large majority, approved Lord Ten nyson's doctrine, That to have loved and lost is better than never to have loved at all" Ayerst hall refused to condemn theaters, and Selwyn voted That war is necessary to the welfare of a nation ''

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. Sit is known
positively here by the Associated Press
that the plan of action as outlined by
Minister Thurston to friends in Wash

identical with the instructions forward
to Honolulu November 10th, by the

Cleveland's policy regarding Hawaii
was made public only few days
before the Warrimoo sailed from
Vancouver. Thurston Immediately sent
dispatch to Vancouver ana had it for

where it was delivered to the provisional
government November 23d. In that
dispatch Thurston gave the substance of
the conversation he had with Gresham
on various points. and also advised the

THREE GIRL TRAMPS.

Without Means They Started Out to Beat
Their Way to California.
1t appears that number of women
have taken to the road as tramps and
are travelling toward California. They
are said to be honest women who are in
search of employment. There are three
of them who are said to be headed for
Sacramento, having travelled together
from Portland. They were without
means, and starvation stared them in
the face if they remained in the Oregon
metropolis during the winter 1t was
decidedly bold thing for women to do,
but these three maidens determined to
get to California in regulation tramp
fashion.
Accordingly they sailed forth and
climbed to the top of the first freight
train they came to, and seating them
selves on the edge of box car they al
lowed their feet to dangle along the side
and waited for the locomotive to roll
away. 1t is said that brakeman who
was running over the top of the train
was so pGralyzed with astonishment
when he saw the petticoated tourists
that he almost fell overheard.
'Where are you going, my pretty
maids?" he politely asked and gallantly
lifted his hat.
The girls told him plainly that they
were going to California; that they had
no money to pay their fare and that they
did not propose to be put off the train.
None of the train crew interfered With
the women. At various stations the girls
went about and begged food.sy AtYene
place, it is reported, a tramp insulted one
of the women, when the three sailed in
together and gave him trouncing that

there was not the slightest foundation

old hands have been employed since the
strike was declared off, leaving 200 still
out of work. There ia much dissatis-

BUFFALO, Dec. 8.-Nearly all the men
who went out on strike on the Buffalo

out, the old men will be re.smployed.

at the City hospital of Wilmington, Del,

mangled in an explosion of dynamite at

were told at the hospital that they could
not survive. They are sightless and

FoReToLD THEIR DEATHS.
A soothsayer's Warning to a Suicide and
seaman Who Drowned.

Seaman Who Drowned.
Seaman John Pascal has received a
letter from AlitalS, Alaska, giving an ac-
count of the suicide of Francis James,
an able seaman who shipped on the
Merom when she left here about six
months ago for the northern canneries.
Francis James killed himself by blowing
his brains out with revolver.
Perhaps You remember. said Pascal,
"that a young man named Lawrence fell
overheard from the Merom when the
bark was sailing through the Golden
Gate.
"Lawrence's death and the suicide of
Francis James recalled to my mind q
very strange coincidence-a happening
which occurred the night before the
Merom sailed. Lawrence, this young
fellow James and myself were taking a
drink together in the Bowhead saloon.
While we were standing at the bar an
elderly man approached us and offered
to tell our fortunes, provided we would
furnish him with few dimes with
which to procure nights lodging.

will meet with misfortune while in
Alaska and will become very despond-

take your own life or will die in a fight
to death with one of your shipmates, but

sort to self destruction
"You may think am telling you what
is not true" said Pascal, but all this
occurred as sure as am talking to you.

given to Mr.. Blount in confidence. Most
Of the allegations in Ashiord's account
are said to be capable of proof. and the
defense allege they will place the ex-
queen on the stand and give full .ex-
pose OF the entire matter 1t ia generally
believed the suits will not be allowed to
come to trial by the prosecution.
STANDING ON THE DEFENSIVE.
An interview with members of the
provisional government this afternoon
developed the determination to stand
on the defensive and take nothing on
trust until the United States govern
ment is officially heard from. either
directly or through Minister Willis. In
the meantime the troops will be kept
armed and the reserve guard ready at q
moments notice. The Americans assert
no restoration shall take place, and it
seems to be the general opinion that if
the ex-queen is restored, it will have to
be accomplished by forcs on the part of
the United States. The provisional
government expresses the opinion that
the use of force would be equivalent to
declaration OF war.
WILLIS GETS HIS CUE.
Since his arrival, Minister Willis has
been advised that should the United
States restore the ex-queen, the war
ships of that nation would he kept busy
protecting her throne. The resident
Americans have at least 1900 rifles and
ammunition in private hands, which it
would be impossible to seize in case of
restoration. Those best posted say the
vra,,ld Stand hnur off
the withdrawal of the American troops,
should Cleveland be so short-sighted as
to attempt her restoration. The theory
of restoration, however, will not be be-
lieved here until the last moment.
Should it then prove true, serious trouble
will inevitably follow. This much is ad
mitted by the clearest heads on both
aides.
TIE CAUSE OF DELAY.
Later.-From q source, almost within
touch with the American legation, it is
learned that the contingency which has
caused delay in Hawaiian affairs until
Washington is heard from. is the fact
that the provisional government and
resident Americans weuld openly resist
either compromise or restoration. The
feeling that Cleveland is anti-American
is taking Arm hold on the psople here,
and if popular feeling ia followed, Meth
er compromise nor capitulstion will be
tolerated.
FAVORABLE LEGISLATION.
In conversation with the Associated |
Press reporter yesterday Minister Willis
said he was confident that legislation
favorable to the Hawaiian islands wonld |
shortly take place in the United States.
He thought the duty on sugar would be
placed at cent per pound. and that the
bounty would be repealed. This would
make net difference OF shout $l5 ton
to the Hawaiian planters under their
present contracts, which allow the sugar
