THE two pleasant features attend
ing the virtual settlement of the print
ing controversy is that good feeling
and good temper have prevailed, and
that about $4,000 have been saved
annually for the tax payers. Let Vi
move on this line, and the democratic
party will be invincible.

knowing that good health
cannot exist without q
healthy Liver. When the
Liver is torpid the Bow

in the stomach undi-

blood; frequent headache
ensues; a feeling Of lassi-

nervousness indicate how
the whole system is de-

means Of restoring more

would be entirely unauthorized. he
will outline his position tomorrow even

Notwithstanding this statement.
Stevens in conversation with friends to-

been to do all he could for the Hawaiian
people, who are now passing through
state of excitement to be compared to
nothing except the state OF the people
OF the north during the first two years
of the civil war. In alluding to the
landing OF the United States marines,
he said even had no request been made
to him by the head of the provisional
government. marines would have been
landed to save the city from the danger
of fire and plumber. In doing this he
acted under the laet instructions touch

LONDON, Nov. 2l.--A dispatch to the
Times from Meshed brings further de-
tails OF the earthquake Friday at
Kuchsn, in the northern part OF the
province of Khorassan. The town was
completely destroyed. The loss OF life is
immense. A great crevice opened in the
earth. through which water flowed in
torrents. The Atreck river overfiowed
its banke. The fertile region around the
city was inundated. Large gardens and
extensive vineyards we're swept out OF
existence. The people had no
chance to save anything. The
shock was so severe that the
largest houses in town. including
the residence of the governor, we're al
most instantly toppled over, crushing
hundreds of people to death, The town
had population of between 20. 900 and
$4,000. 1t is thought at least 1000
perished. Many were carried away
by the food. 1t is not known yet what
damage was done in the valley, but 1t
is feared many villages below Kuchan
were destroyed. A short time after the
disturbance the entire water supply Of
the town disappeared. The people
not injured fed panic-stricken
to the Aladagh mountains, leaving the
injured to care for themselves 90 best
they could, The district in which Kn-
chan is situated is very populous. 1t is
feared il has everywhere suffered from
the earthquake and food.

New YORK, Nov. 21.--In an interview
ex.Sscretary of the Navy Tracy today
said: II do not believe the provisional
government was established by the aid
OF troops from the Boston. or that the
United States is any degree responsible
for the overthrow OF Liliuokalani. Just
before his death Captain Wiltse OF the
Boston told me his marines we're landed
for the sole purpose of protecting Amer
lean citizens and American interests.
There were no instructions. he told me,
to do anything 10 support the provisional
government. Captain Wiltse assured
me they were sent ashore after the pro-
visional government had been pro-
claimed and officially recognized by
Minister Stevens"
Tracy said further: "My attention
been called to statement by Admiral
Skerrett to Blount in reference to con-
versation with me December 30sh. My
recollection of all that transpired be-
tween the admiral and myself on that
occasion is very distinct. The interview
was informal and very brief. Admiral
Skerrett called on me and asked me
If / had any instructions to give
him. l replied l had nothing
further 70 say to him other than what
he had received in bis written instruc-
tions. He then spoke about Hawaiian
matters snd / said l thought the people
of the United States were desirous of

Musical Torres.

A stringed instrument suspended In a
favorable position near pianoforte Will
sound when tones corresponding to the
open strings are produced on the piano.
forte The volume of the answering
tone will depend upon atmospheric con-
aitions, the quality and color of the PER-
suading tone and the sensitiveness of the
responding material. There is a famil-
isr anecdote told Of famous tenor, who
by singing the tone that was consonant
with that of a wineglass, could make the
glass shiver so violently that ii would
fall to pieces. 1t is because Of this tonal
sympathy that the cause of harsh. rat
tling tone that may suddenly appear in a
pianoforte is detected with difficulty.

0rigIa OF the Peach.


Nothing is now more universally ac-
cepted than the fact that the peach il an
improved variety Of the almond. The
almond has thin shell around the
stone, which splits open and shows the
stone when mature. This outer skin
has simply become fieshy in the peach,
90 that it is oil that gives 1t its specific
character. 1t seems now clear from in
vestigation in the history of ancient
Babylon that in their gardens, nearly
1000 years ago, the peach was cultivated
then as it now is.
1t must have been many years before
this that the peach was improved from
the almond, and this fact goes to show
the great antiquity of the fruit. Possibly
gardening in some respects, at least 30
far as it relates to many of our cultivated
fruits, was as far advanced 5000 or 5000
or perhaps 10000 years back as it is to-
day.
Ph9nicians, many thousands of years
ago, as is proved by Che records, had in
their gardens almonds. apricots, bananas,
sitrons, figs, grapes, olives, peaches,
pomegranates; and even sugar cane was
In extensive cultivation. Certainly this
shows how far advanced these nations
were in garden culture many years ago.

The oesen Telephone Possible.

Professor ;5ilvanus T. Thompson is one
of those who believe that ocean teleph-
ony is not only possible, but that the
means of attaining it are within our
grasp. Telephone cables for the deep
sea will, however, require to be made on
different plan from the existing tele-
rraph cables-that is to say, a singh con-
luctor of stranded copper insulated and
surrounded by an iron sheathing that
comes between the outgoing wire and
the water which serves as the return.
part of the circuit. The going and re-
turn wires will have TO lie side by side
within the sheathinG. Moreover, the
whole circuit will probably have to b
broken up into sections which are capa
of acting upon each other by mutual iii
duction. London Globe.
