A New TYNE of Girl.


Imet a new type of girl the other day,
and she was certainly refreshing. Girls
are all good deal alike as a general
thing, you know, and one does get 80
tired of the same old stereotyped girl
sweet enough in her way, 1 grant you,
but with an eternal sameness that grows
rather irksome.
She is little witch to begin with
She will steal mans heart before he
knows it and then pretend not to know
it herself. This damsel is most attract
i've to men, for, spite of her originality,
she is adaptability personifed. She seems
to be able to converse intelligently with
all sorts of men and gets each fellows
fad at her finger tips too. She knows
more than many of her men friends, but
she never lets them suspect it. She
makes each believe that she learns so
much from him and depends so much on
him. She is very feminine, unassum-
ing, natural sort of little woman, with
something appealing about her.
But down under it all she is artful.
She has made study of men, and she
has profted by that Chicago

LAW THAT is QUEER.
A Decision Which Practically Makes a Nom
de Plume Common Property.


| A very interesting claim, in which
| every author who uses a signature is
more or less concerned, was ignomini-
ously dismissed by Judge Lacombe in
the United States. circuit court As
understand it, amediocre book was pub
lished in this city purporting to have been
written by Alan Dale the nom de plume
of one of the brightest and cleverest of
New York's younger literary men. AS
matter of fact, Mr.. Cohen ALAN Dale
did not write the book, and when he
heard of its publication protested against
the use of his name. Protest being I'M
availing, through his counselor, Mr..
Steckler, he sued the publisher, claiming
81 900 damages. After hearing Mr.. Co
hens testimony, Judge Lacombe virtu-
ally informed the jury that there was no
necessity of further evidence, as it could
not be shown that the plaintiffs salary
on daily paper in this city had been de-
creased by reason of the publication, or
that he had had any subsequent trouble
with publishers.
That may be law; it's not justice.
Mr.. Cohen could have proved by
George Alfred Townsend, A. c. Wheel
er, Samuel L. Clemens and other writers
of national repute that the signatures
over which they are known to the world
of readers-Gath, Nym Crinkle, Mark
Twain-mean fortune, and that any
use of those signatures by other parties
was not only an abuse but traverse of
equity, dishonest and cruel. l can't I'M
derstand Lacombe's action in the mat
ter. 1t virtually says to irresponsible
publishers: go ahead, publish what
you please, lyingly announce that the
matter is written by any author whose
name you may prefer. He has no rem
edy unless he can prove that he has lost
an engagement or is in disfavor with the
publisher"
wonder how Lacombe would like to
see decisions, purporting to have been
rendered by him, signed with his name,
circulated in the community. And
also wonder whether it ever entered his
somewhat interesting mind that it is adj
visable to mulct thieves, liars and bear
ers of false witness, for the protection of
the community in general and of men
as well to whom reputation is worth
much more money than the circuit
court could possibly collect.-Joseph
Howard in New York Recorder

Churches as Places of Refuge In War

Our ancestors transacted a good deal
of business of one kind or another in and
about their churches. To begin with,
the churches of old England in turbulent
times were regarded as places of safe
custody for public and private property.
In the border land of England and Scot
land the idea was carried out still more
completely, and churches, or at least
their towers, became regular fortresses
and not infrequently were objects of of
lenses and defense. We may note in
rural England that in the cases of an
Gent churches the towers are often not
merely disproportionate in size to the
rest of the church, but are carefully and
strongly built, evidently with an object.
Even in peaceful Surrey and Sussex
the belfries are veritable strong rooms
with barred windows and massive doors
and often contain a massive treasure
chest. Hither, at the first alarm, money
and valuables were hurried, for beyond
the security of thick walls and bars and
bolts there was an egis of sanctity
which in superstitious age protected
the building from the most ruthless of
foes. The fortresslike construction of
many of the border land churches is an
interesting study to antiquarians.-Lon
don Standard.

The situation with regard to Hawaii is
this: Jan. II the revolutionists formed a
provisional government and raised the
American flag over their headquarters.
President Cleveland ordered the Ameri-
can flag hauled down, and this was done
April 1, the president thus disavowing
the responsibility of the United States
government for either the revolution OF
the new government, which latter, how
ever, still remains at the head of affairs,
its president declaring that it can hold
out for year. The American flag was
hauled down, but the provisional gov

EnuaIiZinp Gold and Silver.

One way of equalizing more nearly the
supply of the two metals will be tried
this year that has not yet been resorted to
to any great extent. That is the work
ing of the known gold mines for all there
is in them. Silver has been depressed so
long that except in uncommonly rich
mines it does not pay to extract the ore.
Consequently the attention of capitalists
turns more and more to economic and
improved methods of extracting gold.
This will be great gold mining year
if the present indications are justified.
A new way of working quartz is called
the cyanide of potassium process. By
this method quartz that was formerly
not thought worth anything can be
made to yield a paying quantity of the
yellow metal Placer gold is the gold
washed out of veins or lodes by the ac-
ton of water. Recently attention has
been given to inventions which bring out
of the placer deposits much more metal
than could be obtained under the old
wasteful washing process. A powerful
air exhaust pumping machine upon a
fiat bottomed boat brings up in great
quantity mud and sand from the bed of
streams where placer gold is found.
Hydraulic machinery will now wash
down a whole mountain if necessary. On
the whole, there need not be any great
surprise if the beginning of 1894 finds
the worlds gold supply considerably in
creased.

The Earth VIII FAN out of Balance,

Marshall Wheeler, one of the best
known of the great army of Pacific coast
scientists, claims to have discovered a
third principal motion of the earth, "
which is this: Every 20,903 years the
globe changes its north and south poles
on account of the attraction the earth
has for its own magnetism. The sun,
too, strongly attracts one of the poles
and repels the other. This being the
case, it only takes the short space of
90, 903 years for the double attraction to
careen it over to such an extent that it
suddenly ''hops" 90 degrees. Mr.. Wheel
er says that one of these grand ''fops'
occurred 5000 years ago, at the time set
down by the biologists as the glacial
epoch. Louis Republic.

Unfortunately it was little previous,
so to speak-the announcement that a
treaty had been concluded with Ecuador
for the requirement by the United States
Of q coaling station on the Galapagos
islands. 1t is a thing that ought to be
yet, however. Perhaps the story will
bring about its own naturalization like
the famous lie Charles Lamb wrote to a
friend in Australia. By the time the
letter reached Australia the lie had be-
come truth, and the occurrence which
Lamb invented had actually happened.
We have now two coaling stations in
the Pacific besides that at the southern
extremity of South America. One is at
Pago Page, in Samoa; the other, Pearl
harbor, is in Hawaii at the mouth of
the Pearl river, near Honolulu. The
third we should by all means have ON the
Galapagos islands These three would
be points into which both merchant
and naval ships could put for repairs
and coal supplies. With our ever in
creasing commercial interests in the Pa
cific, we should have such stations with
in easy reach everywhere.
The Galapagos islands are under the
equator on the direct route from South
American ports to Honolulu. They are
700 miles from the South American coast
and about $50 from Hawaii. This group
is also on the direct route between San
Francisco and Valparaiso. Chatham is
the island that has been mentioned as the
one most desirable for the location of a
coaling station. One or two vessels of
the new navy might hnger around their
permanently if we had possession and
be in easy reach of either Hawaii or the
South American ports.
The Galapagos are uninhabited by any
human residents, which perhaps is all
the better. They ought to be studied
both for purposes of science and TO
nance. The fora and fauna present q
rich field of exploration to the scientist
while the novelist might make them the
scene of many wild, weird and thrill
ing romance. The heroine of his story
might, for instance, be attacked an6
nearly carried off by one of the monster
turtles which remain as a survival Of
the prehistoric time.

The statement that eXtortiOn is gen

robbed in Chicago is malicious false
hood. Visitors to the fair can FIND
good accommodations everywhere and
at reasonable prices. There are cheap
accommodations for those who wish to
do the show economically, and luXurl-
Gus accommodations Tor those who are
able and willing to spend money, or
who desire to make display. Chi
cago is not anxious TO kill the goose
that lays the golden egg, and TO IN
augurate policy of extortion would
unquestionably have this effect. III
would be advertised all over the coun-
try, and would deter people from visit
ing the exhibition. The Transporter
ton facilities to the grounds are excel
lent and rapid, and people of ordinary
intelligence who have ever mingled in
crowds, who will keep their eyes open,
will have no difficulty in getting to the
exposition grounds and going through
them. To be sure some delay has been
experienced in getting everything in
running order, but the work of COM
pleting arrangements is being rapidly
pushed ahead, and by the first of June
the great exposition will doubtless be
in perfect trim,

Difference of religion is at the bottom
of the bitterness against home rule in
Ulster 1t is hard for an American to
understand that in the north of Ireland
Protestants and Catholics still regard
each other with so much dislike and sus-
picion that a stranger might fancy the
"siege of Derry" was not yet ended and
that King James followers were still
fighting. In America the two creeds
live peaceably side by side, and with the
exception of an occasional outbreak, or
"break" of somebody's tongue or pen, one
may conclude that differences of opinion
in theology have been sunk in the one
absorbing aim of getting on in this world.
In north Ireland, however, there are not
so great possibilities in the way of &C
cumulating wealth in this world; conse-
quently the doughty Ulstermen turn
their attention more to the next. There
is no doubt many of them really believe
that if the home rule measure were
passed they would no longer be safe in
the enjoyment of their religion. 1t is no
credit either to Balfour, the Conservative
leader, that he has done all in his power
to arouse the flames of religious dissen-
sion

An Easy Way to Keep Insects or Trees

To trap various insects in the open
air, half fill wide necked bottles with
strip or sweetened water, adding enough
arsenic to make the liquid poisonous
After rainstorm the bottles should be
emptied and refilled, as before mentioned.
Hang the bottle ON the branches of the
trees and among the bushes, etc. This
is ready and simple method of trapping
all insects that prey on sweets, conse-
quently keeping the trees free from many
noxious pests that prey annually on shade
and fruit trees: Cor. Brooklyn Eagle.

1t is certainly to be hoped that the
rumor concerning the intention Ofsome
"well known parties" to build COM
modious ard "proper theater" in New
Whatcom has some foundation in fact.
Judging from what Manager Whit
more says, the enterprise would pay
from the start. Companies with large
scenic attractions are constantly writ
ing for news about the stage conven-
iencies of our Bay theaters, and are
prevented from appearing here by the
absence of facilities to properly present
their pieces. Even when higher class
troupe condescend to "make an effort
here, the dressing room conveniences
are so poor as to interfere with the
lady actors making as elaborate pre-
sentation of their wardrobes as they de-
sire, as was notably the case in the Cal
houn opera company, whose presenta-
ton of their performance in cities
possessing finer opera house was said
to far surpass, in costume, their APP
pearance at the Lighthouse theater.
Now that the business interests at the
other end of the Bay are so decidedly
on the advance, a new theater, over
which there would be no discussion as
to its size and safety, is most assuredly
contamination most devoutly to be
wished.

Eastern dispatches state that the
steamers of the Northern Steamship
company are now running regularly on
the Great Lakes, two of them having
arrived at West Superior on Monday,
and the Great Northern railroad Off
cials are arranging for through rates to
the Atlantic seaboard on lumber and
shingles in connection with these
boats. The rate from the North Pacific
coast to Buffalo by the Great Northern
and these steamers is sixty cents, and
an endeavor is being made to secure a
reduction of the arbitraries from that
point to New York and Boston and
other Atlantic coast points. With the
full completion of arrangements for
both passenger and freight traffic from
the Sound to the Atlantic seaboard by
way of the Great Northern line and
the lakes, and the settlement of the
rate question, it may be expected that
a greatly increased business will be en-
joyed throughout the Sound country,
in which Fairhaven must realize a
large benefit. The absence of trans
portation facilities has greatly retarded
the development of this part of the
state, but this difficulty has been dis
appearing at very rapid rate during
the past few months, the result being a
decided pick up in the lumber output
from the Bay.
