parents having been missionaries there,

Sense than had her brother, the late

Her restoration to power now would
mean the destruction of the progressive

General says in conclusion that the

Cantured by Two Girls.

Mary and Kate Grabenhorst ON Mon
day not only saved their own lives and
those of their father and mother, but
captured would-be murderer and rob-
her, tied rope about his neck, tied his
hands and feet, and turned him over TO
the authorities.
Fred Grabenhorst, So years old, lives
with his wife and two daughters-Mary,
% wears old, and Kate, 16-upon farm
in the northern part of Boone county.
la. Last week he sold some hogs, and
three men who knew of it planned a
scheme to secure the money. The men
were Doc Hamilton, whose wife was
burned to death few days ago by her
clothes catching fire from stove; his
step-brother, Lloyd, and Joe Ross, a
yaeabond who had been in the neigh
borhood two weeks. The plan was to
waylay the man, kill him if necessary,
then 20 to the house, kill the women,
loot the house aud burn it.
They lay in wait for Grabenhorst on
Saturday night, but when he came
home from town another man was with
him. and they were afraid to make the
attempt. At 3 o'clock on Monday
morning the three concealed them
selves in the farmers barn, planning to
kill him when he came out to do his
chores. At Z o'clock the man came
out and Ross attacked him. but as he
made desperate resistance, Hamilton
and Lloyd became frightened and fled.
Ross fired at Grabenhorst, the shot
taking effect in his arm. he tried to
fire again, but the revolver missed fire.
The desperate then commenced ciuo-
binr his victim over the head with his
pistol.
Attracted by the noise, the women
rushed to the barn and another des-
perate struggled followed, in which
their clothes were nearly torn from
their bodies. They succeeded in tax,
ing the revolver from the fellow, and
then Kate pounded him over the head
until he was nearly insensible. She
would have killed him, but her sister
made her desist.
Ross was bound with rope and the
neighbors were notified. The man was
brought to Boone and lodged IN
the comfy Jail. Later in the day
Hamilton and Lloyd were arrested
They disclaim all knowledge of the at
fair, but Ross persisted that they were
with him, and that they were the ones
who knew of Grabenhorst's money and
planned the robbery. Grabenhorst is
dangerously wounded, but may re-
cover. The girls were badly scratched,
bnt not seriously hurt. The citizens OF
Boone are talking of giving them a
handsome testimonial of some kind in
recognition of their bravery.

Rcvolutiou for Revenue Only.

A Revolution for Revenue Only.
In considering the question whether
Hawaii shall be annexed it is we'll to
bear in mind the fact that it was not
desire to establish republican form
of government which led to the over
throw of Queen Liliokalani. The
revolution which cast her from her
throne was q revolution for revenue
only and was the direct result of the
republican legislation of the Reed Con,
gress.
Under the reciprocity treaty of 1875
between Hawaii and the United States
the sugar raised on the islands was adj
mitted to this country duty free. SUI
gar raised elsewhere was taxed two
cents pound on entering American
ports, and the Hawaiian sugar growers
were thus given great advantage over
their competitors. The sugar industry
on the islands grew and ilourished, and
was absorbed by enterprising Califor-
mans who amasscd great fortunes
from it.
When in 1880 the Mckinley bill was
enacted the heavy sugar duty was re-
moved, and in its stead o bounty of two
cents a pound was allowed upon all
American grown sugar. The effort ofthis
legislation upon the sugar producers
OF Hawaii was, of course, very severe. Their
extra profit of two cents pound was taken
away from them and given to their American
competitors instead. and since the sugar pro-
ducton Of the islands is some 200 100000
pounds year the aggregate loss which re-
suited was more than S5,000,O00 q year.
The sugar-growcrs control the islands, and
when they saw their profits decrease while
the sugar bounty kept up the profits of their
American rivals they realized that the only
practical way to regain their old prosperity
was TO be annexed to the United States, so
that they might share in the bounty given to
the American sugar rsisers The revolution
followed. and if the commissioners who are
now in Washington successfully accomplish
their mission they will secure for the sugar
producers of Hawaii an annual bounty of over
S., 100000 as long us the present laws of the
United States remain in force.
There should be no sentimentality in deal
in. with the Hawaiian question. The pro-
position of the provisional government is sim
ply, in effect that America shall rent the
islands at $5,000000 4 yelr.--Bai'imoTe

ST.. VALENTINES DAY.-Next Tue

ST. VALENTINES DAY.-Next Tues
day will be st. Valentines Day and the
pleasant old custom Of sending love
takens is still observed. Like many
another man st. Valentine-or plain
Valentine before he died-was not ap-
preciated until after he had passed from
earthly scenes. He was bishop and
was noted for his love and charity. He
lived in wicked, cruel old Rome. Cen
turtles before the Christian era the Ro-
mans had feasts in the month of Feb
ruary called the feasts of the Lupercalia,
and one of the customs peculiar to these
feasts was the placing of the names of
the young women in box, from which
they were drawn by the young men.
Later, upon the rise of Christianity, it
was festival of the church, and good
st. Valentine was fixed upon as the
proper person whom the custom should
honor and the day celebrate.
