"CASH ON DELIVERY"

The latest news from Hawaii is
very interesting, and the subtance of
it, so far as Queen Liliuokalani's
attitude is concerned, may be found
in the three words at the head of
this article
The queen is said to have come
out with proposition to yield her
rights to the throne and selhshly sell
out her royalist supporters on the
basis of such pecuniary considera-
ton at the hands OF the United
States as will amply provide for her
self and family-no matter how
SHINY her friends may fare in the
deal, or what becomes of their rights
or their lands.
This mercenary move on the
Queens part has aroused much in
dignation among the so-called royal
lists on the islands and will greatly
lower the quondam ruler in the
estimation of the general public.
Meantime the provisional govern
ment deems itself stronger, and the
advocates of annexation take new
courage because the palace where
Queen Liliuokalani once held sway
and concocted financial schemes that
would scarcely stand the light o.
day is now the headquarters of the
provisional government.
Hawaii is an interesting center just
at present, and the administration
policy of inactivity leaves the peopl,
of the islands to work out Their owl
salvation at a slow pace.

LIZZIE BORDEN FREE.


Those who had read the evidence
in the Borden trial at New Bedford
were not surprised that the jury
brought in a verdict of "Not Guilty"
after only an hours deliberation'
The governments side of the case
proved unexpectedly weak and the
powerful arguments Of the district
attorney had no effect upon the jury.
Ex.Gov. Robinson proved a perfect
tower of strength as criminal law
yer, and has gained national rep
utation by his conduct of this case
But the great mystery is still UNI
solved. The world has not yet
found out who murdered Mr.. and
Mrs. Borden of Fall River. This
double murder bids fair to become
one OF the greatest mysteries OF the
period.

criminal negligence and responsible
for the Ford's Theatre disaster bv

penalty, upon conviction, being 10
years in the penitentiary. The Jury
also condemned the cheap contract

Washington people are not sur.

that Col. Ainsworth should be held
accountable for the disaster All
the parties have been released on

AlnSworth will be suspended from

LITER GRADUATION-WH WHAT?

From college, academy and high
school all over the land, thousands OF
young men and women have this week
GRATED and essayed, have made their
salaams, received their diplomas,
and retired, amid the plaudits and
congratulations of admring friends,
and must now (save the small
proportion whose good fortune
it will be to take up school duties
again another fall must take their
places in the ranks of everyday
workers.
1t is one thing to stand before an
audience of ones friends and give
proof of well disciplined mind by
the presentation of a polished ora
ton or essay; it is quite another
thing to enter the busy world and
pit that well disciplined mind
against others of equal strength and
brillancy in the struggle for sub
stantial recognition. 1t is one thing
to spend years in the school room
delving after such knowledge as text
books afford; it is quite another
thing to lay aside the text book for
the more convincing study of men
and the solution of the problems of
everyday life.
But the stirring contact with
humanity which is the inevitable
sequel of the school life is not to be
approached with reluctance or any
feeling of dread. The world is wide
and the opportunity ample. The
young man or woman who has paid
faithful attention to the duties OF the
school room, who has learned to
obey and has otherwise prohted by
the years of discipline under interest
ed and conscientious instructors, is
well equipped for the battle which is
just ahead, and fealty to duty will
win victories there.
The hosts which this week leave
the institutions of learning and ad-
vance upon the world will have their
share of conquests-will suffer their
proportion of defeats. But who
shall say that the prospective in
fusion of so much young blood
will not do the world good ?

THE CIGARETTE.

Rutland dealers say that about
10000 cigarettes are consumed IN
that town every week. Rutland S
population is in round numbers
twelve thousand; this would give
two and half cigarettes to each
man, woman and child in the town.
The women have not yet reached
that degree of suffrage, and may be
set down as not wanting any OF
these 10000 cigarettes that are
passed around every week. So the
disposition of the poisonous little
stems rests upon the men and boys
of that place, who seem to be in
dulging very freely. But Rutland is
not alone in this sort of business.
The cigarette can be seen in the
mouth of many st. Johnsbury lad,
and many a lad elsewhere-all of
whom should be made to realize that
in taking these connections between
their lips they are but inviting ply
steal debility. And it is pity that
any dealer will condescend to hand
over to boys, as many of them
persist in doing, these helps to the
destruction of health. The cigarette
should be made an impossibility, so
far as minors are concerned.

A New York painter made quite a
record the other day by way of a
fall. He was up in the air a distance
Of 10 feet, at work on a chimney,
when the breaking of a hook sent
him to the ground below; in his
descent he tore off twelve feet of the
cornice, broke his neck, four ribs and
his right arm, and yet lived until
midnight. When first picked up the
man interestedly inquired what dis
tance he had fallen.
