VICTORIOUS IRON MOULD
Frs.
They Vim the Tue-of- War With
the Fish Market Team
Last Saturday.

= Jug of-war between the Ho-
nolulu iron moulders and fish mar
KIT teams, witch took place last
Saturday .a2r ing at 10 o'clock
was a hard G,ught battle lasting
about three hours, and owing,
perhaps, as much to an 90;
dent as to superior Foignt, terml-
mated IL a victory for the iron
moulders.
The event had been arranged for
some time previous, but owing to
some misunderstanding as to the
place of encounter, the affair near
ly fell through, and it is thought
would not have taken place at all,
had there not been a $50 forfeit
up. This induced the contending
teams to come to an agreement and
put UP the remaining $50 each,
making the stake 5000 a side. Be-
sides this, there was considerable
money up on the outside, and in
consequence the crowd in attend
ance was large and noisy, tender
| ing advice and opinion freely.
Shortly after $50 the opposing
teams faced each other on the
Heated planks, and at the word
from the referee, settled down to
hard work. After a pull of about
twenty minutes foul was claimed
i'm behalf of the iron moulders
some one having given the anchor
man of their opponents bottle O.
soda water. The foul was no
allowed and the tug went merrlly
on for a time when, after the lrol
moulders had been devoting NOR
,, than usual energy to kleat climb
ing, the knot suddenly left tn
, center mark and wandered up t
the sixteen-inch mark in favor Q
the iron moulders. A search fo
the cause of this sudden advantag
revealed the disastrous fact tina
e the belt of the fish market tear
e anchor-man had slipped down ii
e it rested against kleet, this rel
|. dering it almost impossible f(
. them to gain the lost ground, an
. the knowing ones knew that til
q battle was practically decided
d favor of the iron moulders. Tw
IT hours after this accident the resu
, was seen in the declared victory II
the iron moulders.

The position taken by Senator
Vest is virtually an offer to COM
promise to keep peace in the polltl'
cal family. He blames the Sher-
man act, for the present finan-
cial troubles and thinks that the
remedy for the Abnormal and
threatening conditions confronting
a people whose unequaled re-
sources should make them strang-
ers TO financial disaster" is to be
fonnd either in a compromise
measure which will repeal the
Sherman act and re-enact the
Bland-Allison law, cor by repeal
inc the Sherman act and changing
the legal ratio between gold and
silver with free and unlimited
coinage of silver" The first
of these compromises MIR.
Vest claims is impractical ole
and he declares the Bland

pediency of the-devil-and-the-

forth the Sherman act, and, like
all makeshifts, has drawn ne
friends from either side. On the
other hand, he holds that the In

gold and silver, with free and un
limited coinage for silver, will fur

meet the objections of conflicting
opinions. Mr.. Vest admits tina
any compromise will meet witt

TWO VIEWS OF THE ExGRA SESSION.

I The financial situation and the
extra session of congress called by
President Cleveland have caused
-,rch discussion and created no
4tUIc -. Alto. =. the .,.~-s
States and Europe. Long before
congress was Jailed il was evident
that the majority of the democratic
party were in favor Of IRE silver /;
and for some time the western lead
ers threatened to desert the demo-
cratic tariff-reform policy if Presi-
dent CIeTSei fsfaadf and the gold men
attempted to coerce the majority
with an ultra gold policy. These
threats brought the discussion OF
the democratic policy prominently
before the public, and leading men
from both the great political parties
published exhaustive reviews of the
situation. Prominent among those
who have taken up the question
were Senators Vest (democratic), of
Missouri, and Dolph (republican),
of Oregon. The articles of these
gentlemen in the North American
Review for August show, perhaps,
as well as the circumstances will
allow, the latest tendency of thought
in the democratic and republican
parties on the respective party poll
cies to be pursued in the present
extra session of congress.

ceived opinions there is found no reason to
accept its CORRECTNESS when examined on
general principles. The afternoon tea
young man generally has refined tastes,
likes the society of women, enjoys the at

in flowers and everything else that is beau
tiful, all of which are to be found at the af-
ternoon tea. Instead of being weak, the
afternoon tea young man is really much
more astute than his brother who buries
himself in the Office from breakfast until
dinner time, with only hasty 20 or 80 min

Savage Natives of the solomon Islands.

A passenger from the Solomon islands
one who has had some years experience
trading with the natives and who arrived
recently in Sydney, gives a melancholy &C
count of life among the black fellows. One
might have thought that the DAYS of head
hunting were at an end and that in view of
the commercial intercourse which for many
years has been carried on between the
whites and the islanders of the Solomons
this barbarous custom would have passed
with many others into history But it APP
pears that quite the contrary is the fact.
Head hunting is openly carried on both at
Malaysia and San Christoval, and the ma
tive is regarded by his fellows as young
and inexperienced who has not shed human
blood.
Then, as to cannibalism, it is undoubted
that it exists and is largely practiced by
certain tribes. The custom is to cut up the
bodies of the victims and sell them piece
meal, pretty much after the style of an itin-
Grant butcher, aud evidence in the shape of
human bones left after the cannibal feasts
is abundant on the i ands. To what fear
full extent it i carried on in the bush on
Malayta or san ChTistoval can only be con-
jectured from what l. absolutely known to
occur on the coast. Ii is sid to be more

A CIergyman's Advice.

Some Of the virtues of individuals
may become vices when practiced by the
masses. Not long ago a well known
clergyman preached an eloquent sermon,
wherein he urged as a remedy for the
ills of labor that the so called working
men and their families be more frugal.
He thought that there were too many
carpets and too much fine furniture in
the houses of the common people. He
was convinced that working folk went
to the theater rather too much and that
it was entirely unnecessary for them to
pay quite so much attention as they do
TO the freaks of fashion. But suppose
his precept were carried out. Carpets
are really as much Of luxury as they
are a necessity. 1t is not absolutely nee
essary that the common people should
ever go to the theater. If a hat or a
coat OF pantaloons be worn until they
are absolutely worthless, they would no
doubt last much longer than they do.
But in order to carry out these rules
of economy it would be necessary to
close up a large portion of our retail
stores that give work to so many people
and supply remunerative income to so
much capital. Quite one-half Of our
large manufactures might be closed up.
and our transportation facilities reduced
one-half. This form of economy might
have answered well enough in the DAYS
of the lamented Samuel Smiles, but at
the present time, when our marvellous
facilities for production are almost be-
yond our power to consume, it is more
an eco4omic virtue to teach the people
how they may have the power to spend
money rather than how to refrain from
doing so. II everybody were to re-
duce expenses one-half. the workingman
would have but half the work to do that
be has at present.

The Tenacious Pawnbroker.

One of the best known pawnbrokers in
the Bowery was attending to a mum Der OF
Iimpecunious customers one day last week
when well dressed foreigner stepped in,
handed him a remarkably fine diamond
ring and asked how much he would advance
on it.
The pawnbroker glanced at it moment
and asked How much do you want'"

swer SIS it good for $sO?"
Without answering the pawnbroker
walked to the back part of the shop and
disappeared for a moment. Then he reap
peared, threw $50 ON the counter in front of
the foreigner and asked what name he
should put on the ticket.
II don't want any money" exclaimed the
man. II only wanted to know how much
you would be willing to lend on the ring"
What name shall put down" was the
pawnbroker' sole response.
Don't put down any name" said the
stranger, showing some excitement. II
tell you don't want the money 1t isn't
my ring at all. It's friends ring, and
want to find out what he can raise on it."
There's your money" replied the pawn
broker
But don't want it, | tell you. only''-
well, then, you can leave it there for
somebody else to pick up. Here's your
ticket. | can't spend my time bothering
with you any longer"
The foreigner protested in excited tones
and insisted that he must have the ring at
once. Finally the pawnbroker, with the
air of person who was doing great per-
sonal favor, told the stranger that at the
regular rates it would cost him S. 40 inter-
est to recover the ring. But" said he, las
you say it's mistake, I'll let you have it
for dollar"
With disguised air the man took dol
lar from well worn purse. gave it to the
who picked up the $50 and
handed back the ring.
As the stranger turned to leave the pawn
broker told him to tell his friend be could /

more prosperous times appear. The
present condition of affairs, however,
cannot maintain for any special length
Of time. The country has every
element of prosperity, and while
the change of administration, with the
probability of change of financial and
commercial policy, may have had the
effect of interfering with the even run
of affairs, such interference can only be
temporary. The recuperative power of
great nation like the United States
will show itself equal to cope with the
danger which threatens it, and by
congressional legislation or concerted
action on the part of the leading capt.
talists and financiers of the nation, the
remedy will be applied and the pros
perity of the country be placed on a
higher footing than ever before i'm its
history. In the very nature of things
the better day cannot he far in the

manifest in the emigration of people

The ways of suicides are past finding
out, but none has pursued a more in
scrutable course than the man who at
Hampton, Va, first sought to end his
life by jumping from tall tree, at the

When taken to a hospital, he remained
quiet as long as he was unconscious, but
when he came to himself he crawled out
of bed, got hold of heavy iron seal and
with it finished the job by beating out
his own brains. Most suicides try to
leave this world by method that shall
