AS he was leaving the house the servan,
hastened to tell him that his receipt was

"All right," he answered, "I shall get

away without a glance back. II he had

He was handsome indeed--tall, dark,
with we'll proportioned figure and a
crisp mustache, and in his eyes there was
a look of tranquil content that was very
pleasant.
He worked all day, with no thought
but OF his duties, only saying TO himself,
as he had said IL many a time before, that
II IL was a good year they would probably
raise his salary. 1t was just then his sole
ambition.
That evening, having dined simply but
substantially, he presented himself at the
Perronnets' door. He did not suspect
that he had SO excited the curiosity Of
this family.
He was introduced into the parlor,
which was brilliantly lighted for this
event. M. and Mime. Perronnet, who
were already there, and Mile. Amelie,
who was listening behind a portiere, de-
cided that he made a very graceful ap-
pearance.
He was closely interrogated as to his
life, his family--who lived in the country
--and his work. M. Perronnet compli-
mented him on his ardor as n student.
and Mime. Perronnet counsoled him not
to abuse his health. He thanked them,
a little astonished at this paternal solici-
tude, received his receipt and retired to
his room, where soon his lamp shone

At the end OF a month the curiosity OF

The Star has got another at
tack of the spoils disease and
demands the scalps of those
government officials who are not
active annexationists and mem
bers of the club. We shall not
waste our space by re arguing
the stale propositions. but we are
obliged to PASS few remarks in
regard to the insinuations in which
the Star INDUCES against certain
officials on account of an item
which appeared in the HoLoMUA
referring to a little alteration
which took place last week be
tween DIR. McGrew and Minister
Damon. The information about
that little affair did not reach our

1t is amusing to see the annex
alton organs raise their hands in
holy terror. because as they claim
the HoLoMUA makes personal at
tacks on people. Papers which
have insulted and abused
Consul General Mills. Captain
Ludlow and other American
officials should be little care
full before they begin to throw
stones. Since the 18th of Janu
ary the tone Of the annexation
organs has been snch that the edi-
tors are placed beyond the pale
of gentlemen. The coarse and
violent attacks on the Queen are
still fresh in the minds of the
community and shall not be for
gotten before retaliation is melted
oat. There is a long score to
settle yet so the Organs
needn't whine when the HoLo-

No Annexation.

There is sense of relief in the
announcement that the c. S. do
not contemplate the annexation
of Hawaii. Much fapdoddle has

1t is undoubtedly fortunate for
the country, that there are one
or two men in the government
who cannot be bu ldozed or

MILITARY EXPENDI.
TURES.

In the statement of proposed
reductions" in the expenses OF
the military, as presented II the
Councils by the Finance Mini
ster last week, the taxpayers OF
this country are of the opinion
that the proposed expenditure
of $3.50 month for useless staff
Offices be dispensed with.
There has never been any oe-
casioa for such APPENDICES to
military force IN this country
before the present period. nor
is there any need of such use
lessness now. If the patriots
of the cause desire to serve
their government. and wish to
assist in the obtaining of annex
alton. the taxpayers of this
country have no objections to
their doing so, whether it is
in the capacity of a Colonel.
Major. Captain, Quarter-Master.
Doctor, Drummer or anything
else. But # they wish to have
a title appended to themselves
and Herewith sport uniform
and to receive honors, they must
show their patriotism for the
cause" and serve for the
homer" of their government.
otherwise they become bod
lers.'
The persons for whom this
proposed expenditure is asked
for. are receiving incomes from
other sources, or in words are

According to the same cheer
ful idiot it is treason to write or
speak about the Queen or Her
Majesty. 1t is also treason to
read or subscribe for the Bulletin
or the HoLoMUA which by the
way the brilliant member of the
club evidently is doing himself.
His assertions that the papers
mentioned or the band are being
subsidized by the government are
simply lies. That the Star will
give its space to print
such absurd rot is very charac-
teristic of that sheet, and that
the writer evidently represents
tie tone of the annexation club.
is a good explanation of the fact,
that annexation is dead, and that
the misguided men who hereto
fore have listened to the sand.
lotters who act IS leaders are
unworthy and unable to COM
mand the confidence and the
respect of the Hawaiian people.

BEER OR WATER p
Or is il a little Of each I

The Makiki Pumping Plant
doesn't seem to be a great sue
cess. Mr.. Emile Very who pro-
baby knows all aboat the
Water Works of this city has
been interviewed By representa-
tive of this paper and he smiles
broadly whenever water Is
mentioned. At the same time he
feels somewhat surprised and
hurt in his feelings. because the
beer and wbiskey which the
police chose to confscate from
him the other day have decidedly
disappeared.
Mr.. Very was pulled up by our
brilliant Marshal or his satellites
for keeping a disorderly house.
The Court remarkable to say
differed from the great Marshal,
and Mr.. Very was discharged
from all accusations. Mr.. Very
who is a very genial old French
man, full of humor thought that
he might as we'll take his "stock"
of beverages home and conse-
quently called at the Police
Station and asked the Lords in
charge to fork over" the stuff.
Mr.. Very was informed that the
demijohn filed with whiskey
which was seized had met with
an accident and that all the
whiskey had been spilled (down
the throats of some policemen
while he learned that he would
be able to recover about eleven
bottles of beer ont of seventeen
with which he accommodated the
department. We only mention
this little instance more especial
" because the Deputy Marshal
offered to put Mr.. Very "out
and so defend his officers, and
because Mr.. Very who is an old
experienced man in the water
business, claims that he cannot
connect" and that he is In duty
bound to attend to beer as
Mr.. Andy Brown is drawing all
the water which can be gotten
from the Makiki Pumping Plant.
Emile says. that he really doesn't
care much for water and that he
prefers beer every time. but he
kicks when the government con-
iscates his beer and doesn't
furnish him with water.
