pitcairn Islanders.

Pitcairn island, where the descen-
dants of the mutineers of the bounty
live in seclusion and primitive content
ment, boasts of being absolutely free
from the vice of drinking. The pro-
hibition laws there touch not only
liquors but tobacco. a shipwrecked
sailor named Coffin, who was cast
ashore there a few months ago. had
managed to save his dearly cherished
pipe and pouch of tobacco. The chief
magistrate of the colony promptly in
formed him that he must give up
smoking if he wanted to enjoy their
hospitality, and when he refused he
was so effectually boycotted that he
fled this ocean paradise by the first
passing ship. Capt. Bailey, of the
American merchantmen Vigilant, from
Japan, brings this story. He stopped
at the island and traded trinkets for
food with the natives, and found them
happy and prosperous, though not a
drop of rain had fallen there for two
years, and the volcano over which
their island lies has been giving
ominous indications of activity.

Jewelry and Lace from Siam.

The Siam commissioners have ar
ranged two cases of antique jewelry
and costly laces in the rotunda of the
Woman's building. One beautiful
piece of embroidery, the design being a
dragon worked in silver and gold on
blue velvet, is the work of their queen.
Two pairs of trousers worn by the
queen on state occasions are embroid-
cred in silver and gold and thickly
studded with precious stones. The an
tiaue jewelry is valued at $4,000.
There are fifty rings set with diamonds
and precious stones valued at $4,000.
Some are shaped like snake, some

FULL FREEDOM OF DEBATE.

LEGISLATORS I'm New South wales Not liam
pered by Parliamentary Usage.
The ''lively scenes" which occasion
ally break the monotony of proceed
ings in the house of commons are very
dull, insipid affairs, says the London
Truth, in comparison with those con-
stantly enacted in the legislative as
sembly of New South Wales. In a re-
cent issue of Sidney paper there is a
report of a debate in which the premier
(Sir George Dibbs) twice interrupted a
member with the remark that he was
"a liar' Sir George was accused of a
disgraceful act of nepotism in giving
an appointment to his nephew. His
polite contradiction was: "Iou are a
bigger liar than the man who told
you," and it was only after being
pressed by the chairman that he with
drew it. The postmaster general (Mr.
Kidd was charged with comforting his
Office worth $3.50 year on his partner
in business. He did not deny the soft
impeachment, but told the member
who raised the matter that If he were

tion lit would be good job" Called
upon to withdraw, Mr.. Kidd said; g

The Daisy in Virginia.

Before the war there was no such
flower as the daisy in Virginia. The
hardy flower was a curiosity. Now the
fields just around Richmond are white
with them. This is especially so of the
late battlefelds about the Chicllahom-
my river, and wherever the federals
had encampments. An investigation
shows that the seeds of the prolific
daisy were brought there in the bales
Of hay brought by the union soldiers
in Virginia, when they were camped
near the city. An old battery west of
Richmond is the spot from which the
daisy began to spread.

Paris Women Determine to "Regenerate'
the Ancient Secret Order.
The ladies of Paris are about to
found a female masonic lodge, says a
writer in the New York Tribune. De-
featcd in their attempts to obtain seats
in the Legislature, in the academy, and
in the municipal councils, they have
determined to resort to freemaSonry.
their object being. so they announced,
to degenerate" this secular institu-
ton, to endOw it with more life" and
fraternity" and above all to drive all
politicians out of the temple The
organizers of this project have already
obtained the consent of the govern
ment, and an executive committee of
eight has been appointed, with Nine
Marie Deraismes as the first grand mis-
tress or venerable of the lodge, which
already includes over one hundred
members 1t is stated that the ladies
are assisted in the work of organiza-
ton by three brothers of the craft.
Inc LADIES announce that they do not
intend to follow the examples of the
male lodges with respect to mysteries
and theatrical ceremonies, and intend
to remain content with the trimestrial
and annual passwords. 1t is scarcely
necessary to add that they are devoting
much attention 70 the insignia, and
while the apprentices and ordinary
mistress masons are to wear aprons
similar to those of their brethren, the
dignitaries will don garments of vari-
Gus colors, representing the sun, the
temple, the Instruments of masonry
and other emblems. The object of the
scheme is asserted to be purely philan-
thropic.
