THE Ex-ouEENs OWN TEsTI-
MONY.

THE EX-QUEENS OWN TESTl-
MONY.
We are given to understand that
Mr.. Willis communication to the
Provisional Government contains
phrases like this
The Queen having made her SUR
render definitely to the forces of
the Boston under protest and hav-
ing submitted her cause to the
arbitrament of the Government of
the United States, the Provisional
Government having accepted her
surrender thus made, and having
noted her protest, thereby became
an acknowledged party to the ar
bitrament.
Mr.. Willis must have been mis-
informed as to the facts i'll the case,
and we hasten to assure him that
his idea that the Queen made her
surrender definitely to the forces
of the Boston has been refuted
under oath by that parsonage her
self. Here is her testimony as
sworn to before Chief Justice Judd
on January 81, 1898: .----

ernment Of the United States of

And the President himself, in
his late message to Congress,
condemned a former admins
tration for letting the rule be
relaxed in Samoa, and said;
This incident and the events
leading to it signally illustrate the
impolicy of entering alliances with
foreign powers. Is it to be sup

Again: 1t is in no way pre-
sumable that Great Britain would
defy the Monroe doctrine. She is
not looking for war with the majes-
tic power of the West at a time
when two of the military nations Of
the East are hostile to her, and
when such a conflict with America
would touch the brand to a powder

Hawaii at that price.

All dispatches on the Associated
Press wires are now copied on writing
machines, and there is general feel
ing among telegraph managers that
the day is not far distant when every
description of telegram will be
printed on the machine. The move
ment in this direction is vigorous
and persistent, and it will not be
long before typewriting machines
will be considered as much part of
the equipment of every commercial
office as the telegraph instruments.

to the unconstitutional act Of Gro

have it for forty, but like 10 act on
the square, and I shouldn't want TO

time you or some Of your family come

The man paid over forty-hve cents

times he and other men had been

what they bad saved on another. The

Geological Nomenclature.

The buffalo" in the United States
is bison; the ''partridge" of Michi-
gan ard the pheasant" of Pennsyl-
vania and other States is q ruffled
grouse; the rabbit" so plentiful in
the market at times is a hare. Both
species of grouse, the rufled and pin
mated, are called pheasant" "par-
fridge" and 'patrige." and the pin
mated grouseis universally referred to
as the "prairie chicken" "Prairie
chicken" is not a bad name for the pin
mated grouse, for it is original and does
not confound us with other birds,
but it is not right to use the names
"patridge'' and pheasant" when re-
ferring to our grouse, for these are
the correct names of European speci-
