according to custom. When, however.
his cell was visited il was empty and
there was not sign of Johnson any
where. A search was made in every
direction, and mt last a prisoner pointed
to a cocoanut tree which grew in the
middle of the prison-yard. and there,
comfortably seated among the tuft of
leaves. was johnson. The warden at
first tried to get the man down by quiet
persuasion, then he threatened, then
stormed and sworc. Johnson laughed
contcntedly ut every mood, but did not
move. The fact was reported to the
Colonial Secretary, who recommended
that the fire-engine be called out and the
man washed down. The chief of the
fire department hardly thought it was
consonant with his dignity to wash a
prisoner out of a cocoanut tree, and re
ported that there was not pressure of
water enough to get a stream to the top
of the tree This was probably true, for
the tree was tall one.
The case was again referred to the
Colonial Secretary, who took it before
the Governor. His Excellency was hav-
ing luncheon with some of the departing
officers and their friends and was having
good time He was vexed that at such
time he should be troubled with official
work, as hastily glancing over the docu-
ment he added the following instruc-

this was going on, time was slipping
away Almost all the troops were on
board the troopship, and as these vessels
wait for no one, the escort which had
been sent to bring Johnson down to the
ship had to hurry off not to be late itself.
Johnson beloved farewell, and despite
the strong language of the warden still
laughed and did not move Before the
engineer department had come to q con
clusiOn as to how to cut down the tree
and lower it gradually, the troopship
had up anchor and was steaming out of
the harbor. Then johnson climbed down
the tree and finished his sentence on the
island, TO which he had taken a fancy.
His conviction had carried with it his
"discharge with ignominy.n He settled
in the island and was soon in easy CIR
cumstances. He had undoubtedly hid
den his stolen property, and after his
release dug it up and started in business.
When Johnson was last seen he was
1ourishing and had large cocoanut
grove around his cottage. - New York

Maori Courtship.

Girls were given great license from a
very early age in the matter of lovers.
Some girls, however, were born proud,
and either kept to one sweetheart or had
none, but this was rare When a girl
married she became tagu to her husband.
Any one outside the relation of brother
and sister could marry, although mar
riage of first cousins was greatly disliked.
Polygamy prevailed among those who
could afford it, and whose circumstances
or inclination led into it, "but as the
tribe supported all in food, the mean
men would be prevented, in some way or
another, from having large establish
ments." Betrothal of children was
common among people of high birth.
eff no betrothal, there was generally
lot of talk and squabbling, every one in
the tribe thinking he had a right to in

The ROustabout's Cues.

A pleasant feature of the sugar business
of the boats in the South is the songs Of
the men rs they work. A long skidway
or slide is arranged from the top o. the
bank to the boat, and the barrels or
hogsheads are thus slid on board. The
man at the top will sing, as each barrel
is started on its way. a sort of notifica-
ton to ''look out below" and the man
on the boat will answer in way that
means ''let her come The most strik

This Season

Growing Well
MT the Straw Il Short, And tho
Yield Will Be Decreased in
Consequence.

The weather conditions which existed
during the past week were undoubtedly
fine best since the opening of the season,
and have done much to improve the
general outlook. The temperature av-
arared about three degrees below the
normal throughout the entire State,
while good showers are reported from
all sections, excepting in the northwest
norton, where more rain is needed to
improve the grazing lands.
Early-sown wheat is headed in all To-
%cali,ies and is growing finely. The straw,
however. is very short, and a greatly de-
creased yield is consequently expected.
All other small grains, corn and potatoes
are in excellent condition. Reports
from Dickey county state that flax will
be full crop. The outlook in LaMoure
county for crops in general is not as
GOOD as in other sections of the State,
owing to the long-continued drought
and hot weather in that section during
June.
sudden hot wave made it's appear
ance in North Dakota yesterday, will
reach it's maximum intensity to-day, and
will be followed by showers and cooler
weather tonight and tomorrow.
