When Animals Are Removed

When animals or plants are re-
moved from their peculiar and nat
ural districts to one entirely different
in climate some surprising changes
take place. AS soon as possible after
such removal they change their char
acter and habits SO as to conform
with their new homes, or else cease
to exist. A good WOOL bearing sheep
transferred from some northern pas
ture to the tropics changes his coat
to a thin covering of struggling hairs
scarcely resembling wool; the dog be.
comes destitute of hair altogether,
ond even bees cease to lay up their
stores OF honey and in a great meas,
ure lose their industrious habits.

Cardinal asked.
"Oh, only a friend of mine from
COrtona, who has come all the way
to Florence to learn to he a painter.
See those pictures on the wal.?" said
he timidly fearing least his master
would be angry that he had allowed
Peter to draw them. II couldn't do
such work as that He'll die ii he
can't be a painter. He's so nice, too,
and has such soft girls ways"
"Where do you keep the boy, pray?
There isn't room for you here. l

"Oh. sir, he's out all day, and only
sleeps here at night. I've taken him
on trust"
OF course the Cardinal did not
know the meaning Of that, but he
demanded to see the youpgster when
he should come In.
But Peter did not return that night
nor for two weeks more. Thomas

came back it was all explained. He

Mr.. Braley stated that persons run
ming from any of the Indian rcserva
tions would be classcd as sooners; that
the department had defined the reser-
vations as part of the Cherokee out
Jet and one could not run from the east
side unless he started at the hour of
the opening from the Cherokee nation
and the distance would probably cause
them the loss of claim. In this eX-
preston his opinion is adverse to that
of another of the officials connected
with the opening, who gave il as his
opinion after invest cation, that there
could be no objection to settlers cross
ing the eastern reservations ana max
ing the start from the east line of the
lands to be opened.
We believe, however, the language
of the act and proclamation in this re-
gard to be somewhat vague and that
either construction could be derived.
Chief Braley seems to have ca
pacity for hard work, and is very ear
nest in his purpose to have the lands
opened without single mistake.

OPIUM AT MAHUKoNA.
Native Woman Passenger on Kinau
Caught With Some.

When the steamer Kinau arrived
at Mahukona this last trip posse
of police officers met passengers at
the landing. Chinese passengers
were searched for opium, but none
was found. Among the passengers
was native woman who acted
rather suspiciously. Her actions
were noticed by one of the police
officers and he followed her up. She
had a bundle in her hand which she
endeavored to pass unnoticed The
man in blue stopped the woman and
on opening the bundle found it to
contain twenty-five tins of opium.
The woman was arrested. The stuff
came from Honolulu.
