ANOTHER CRANK.
Writes a letter.

To the Editorcf the Brooklyn Eagls:.
The departure of the United
States steamship Boston takes
from our shores ship and officers
and crew that are dear TO us for
ever. None appreciate the rank
aud file of the Boston so much as
the American residents here
whose lives and property were
protected by them last January.
Endorsed by their fellow citizens
and supported by the American
colony in Hawaii. they made a
record of which they NAV be
Justly proud and never ashamed.
The name of the Boston and her
officers and crew who protected
US last January and February are
lndellbly written in Hawaiian hist
DRY and opens the hearts of ap-
preciative Hawaiian citizens and
Americans in Hawaii. With the
going of the Boston a woman's
name must be mentioned that
of Lieutenant E. K. Moore's
wife-Mrs. Moore was the only
naval officer wife with us during
the winter and revolution of
1898, and who know her remem-
Der the lively interest she took
IN Hawaiian history; of her close
study OF it in all its phases-of
the sympathy, in word and deed
she gave the American colony
during their troublous period.
No names are deaIer to us than
Stevens, Boston. Wiltse and
Mrs. e. K. Moore. They have
our aloha nui. There are the
international expression of opini-
on from dominant, political and
moneyed power of this country.

One of Colonel bob" Ingersollis
stories is that he found him self "a

young man, he was studying law
with firm out West. He was in
terrlpted by the entrance of a raw
boned, sharp-featured country
woman, who ambled into the room
leading a freckled-faced, watery-
eyed. ten year-old boy by the hand.
.'Air you the lawyer?" she be-
gan.
On being answered in the affir-
NATIVE she went on TO say that she
had brought her boy Jim to town
for the purpose of binding him out
at the " lawyerin' trade. She was
morally certain. she averred, that
Jim was born lawyer, and that
all he needed was chance.
"But. madam" objected the
Colonel, che is entirely too young
to gin the study of law"
TOO young. indeed" shifted the
f,nd mother, contemptuously;;" you
don't know Jim. He was born for
a lawyer"
Much amused. the Colonel asked
her on what grounds she based
her hopes of a futnra at the Bar for
her darling child.

A HAPPY PEOPLE.

Speaking-of the japanese, the
Tiser of last Friday morning says,
They are indeed peculiar
people, and among their many
peculiarities not the least is that
they are the only nation in the
world practically without a re-
ligion."
They are satisfied with what
they have got. and are all the
happier for it. The Hawaiian
people would be much better off
today. if it were not for the hypo.
critical and sacrilegious religion
which is preached to them every
week by insincere preachers.
At the Religious Session of
preachers held lately in Chicago,
the Japanese representative was
one of the ablest speakers pre-
sent. In the course of his re-
marks, he made reference to the
American Missionaries, in words
something like this: He said
that he was one of those Japanese
who had protested against allow
ing those missionaries to enter
japan to teach religion, as the
next thing they would try to do,
would be to annex Japan to the
United States.

ocean shells scattered over the bottom,
and wondered what they were for. Mr..
Horton gave a shrill whistle, and stimuli

lines, with an old giant at their head,
who, Mr.. Horton said, weighed six
pounds and seven ounces He was
enormous and looked as though he had
dined on his weaker brethren for gen

At the word Of command they per
formed all kinds Of evolutions, every

movements were astonishing in num-

believe Mr.. Horizons statement that it
took him over ten years 70 get this Sc
lect company into such perfect disci-
and then followed a jumping con
test, At a given signal each frog in
turn leaped into the water and dIsap-
peared.
What you have seen my frogs do 50
far is very wonderful said Mr. Hor-
ton, but their chief accomplishment
you have not seen, or heard, should
say. 1t is the wonder of every one and
people have come miles TO witness it.
Wait till dusk and then will have them
perform" At last dusk ca me, and Mr..
Horton took the reporter out TO the
waters edge and gave him a seat He
then brought ont a miniature must
clans stand and placed 1t near the edge
Of the little lake. AT a signal note the
and jumped into the stand. They
formed a circle, and ct the word Of
command began to sing tune. Each
frog had been selected because Of his
fine croak- and there was q perfect scale
among the voices. The largest frog
sang the deepest bass, and little fel-
low, almost tadpole, sang a shril so
prano.
It was wonderful. Mr.. Horton said
that during the warm months their
voices were clearer and sweeter than at
this time of year. When the frogs be-
gan 70 show signs o. WEAKNESS their
master gave the signal 10 stop and al
sought their homes at the bottom Of the
lake. Mr.. Horton tells many stories Of
the intelh gence Of his pets
