4 Romance Indeed.

There is an interesting little ro-
nance connected with the Hawai-
ian affair which has escaped the
daily press. 1t is of the love of
prince and a princess. The former
is the kanaka nobleman who ac-
companied Paul Neumann to Wash
ington, to there present the case of
Liliuokalani, and the Princess is
kaiulani, heir apparent to the Ha-
waiian throne, who for some time
past has been in England preparing
herself for the high station which
she fondly hoped awaited her. The
young couple are betrothed, but
whether they will now marry is
question, for future queen is an
altogether different parsonage from
little girl with a moderate fortune,
and a prince with an allowance is
not identical with a private citizen
without funds. Kaiulani, who is
said to be a very pleasant and
bright young lady, has made many
friends in England. If she arrives
at Washington before annexation
receives favorable judgment, she
may yet save her kingdom.-TS. F.

Important For Advertisers.

The Yreka Journal puts an i'm
portant fact before advertisers when
it says that there are many who
think that an advertisement in a
paper of large circulation is of no
more value than one printed in
paper of meager circulation. The
value of an advertisement is deter
mined altogether by the circulation
of the paper in which it is inserted.
If there was more Judgment exer-
cised on the part of advertisers
there would be fewer of them
robbed. 1t is deplorable fact that
most advertisers are willing to pay
the same price for an advertisement
in a paper of 200 circulation as
they are for one in a paper having
500 circulation. 1t is easy enough
to determine a good advertising
medium from a poor one. Let &
merchant look around his own town
and see what paper gains entrance
to the most places, and what paper
is the most sought after and often
est spoken of. That one is the
most profitable paper in which to
address the people.-LThe News
paper Man.
