AUCKLAND, n. H., Dec. 9. = The
steamer Monowai has arrived here. She
left Honolulu on Nov. "a. All was
quiet there. The news that Presi-
dent Gle veland intended to restore
the queen caused great excitement
1t was discussed by excited knots of
people on the streets. and was generally
condemned. A rumor was published in
the Honolulu papers that the queen was
not willing to accept a restoration unless
she was assured of the armed support OF
the United States.
The Hawaiian Gazette, of Nov. "a,
says:
"In the meantime the monarchy is
not restored and wifi not be unless by
the armed forces of the United States,
whose forces must then continue
to support the ex-queen. There
may be small differences in the ranks
of the party of reform, out we
are today more united and determined

CHICAGO, Dec. 9.-The Germania
club. the most influential German So

vote of to 2, by its directors, refused
the preferred gift of an oil portrait of

Winter Evening Reading.

A newspaper is indispensable in a fam
lily, but it is not enough. Wherever
young people are it should be supple
mented by the best literature that can
be selected. Buy books for children,
even If you dress them very plainly and
do without things yourself. They will
rise up and call you blessed in after
years when they enter society with re-
fined, cultivated minds and with noble
aims in life, caught from the inspiration
of the good books you pinched yourself
to gain for them. The girl whose taste
has been thus correctly guided will new
er read with any patience the ~sickening,
sloppy novels that fill the empty young
feminine head with crazy trash, and her
brother will never fit himself out with a
dark lantern and a pistol and try to rob
q store.
If a single family cannot afford to buy
the best books for the children, several
families might club together in a read
ing society and circulate the books
among the subscribers till they were
worn ont. Truly, such a reading club
would add new joy and help to life in a
neighborhooa where entertainment is
limited.
Mr.. Lawson G.. Dietrich has prepared
an admirable list Of books for young
people. They are i'll cheap form:

At the Top or mount nianc.

America has her astronomical observ-
atories upon Mount Washington and
Pixies peak, where the thermometer Of
ten slides down to 40 below zero. Eu-
rope has had nothing to match these I'M
til now, when the completion Of the OBJ
~servatory upon Mount Blanc brings her
into line with progressive America.
The establishment of Mount Blanc OBJ
servatory is an event of unusual interest.
The building itself is in a Measure a
house under the snow. The structure is
8S feet high, but only about 10 feet Of
this is visible. The rest is buried within
snow walls. 1t was intended to construct
the house upon a solid rock foundation,
but the projectors bored down and down
through the ice till it seemed as if they
would never find a solid foundation.
After boring down 25 feet into the snow
and ice, they found themselves still at
least so feet from solid earth and gave it
up, concluding that they could not in any
case get a much solder base than that
afforded by the granite hard snow and
ice cap of the mountain.
The first materials for the building
were carried up the steep paths upon the
backs of men. Afterward windlasses
were rugged, and a part drawn up in that
way. The house itself was built in Paris
in sections and shipped to Chamounix.
The complete structure is in the shape
of a pyramid. This gives the greatest
strength. AT this death cold height only
anthracite coal will furnish heat enough
to keep the frost out, even in summer.
1t is not intended to inhabit the observa-
tory except in warm weather-from May
to November. The rest Of the year the
lone pyramid will take care of itself.
Automatic thermometers and barom-
eters will, however, tell the story Of
weather and temperature when no mans
eye Is there TO note it. Automatic cleo
trical transmitting wires can convey the
report to Chamounix the year around.
The thermometer registers sometimes
~ 10 ~ below zero at the observatory.
The building will have shelter and rooms
for tourists, so that the ascent of Mount
Blanc will now be undoubtedly more
popular than ever. The next step will
be to construct a railway up the frozen
heights. With the observatory already
there, this should be an easy matter.
Then Mount Blanc will be robbed of its
%terrors, perhaps of its fascination too.

1t is only parallele1 in recent time by
the strike begun by the wool shearers in
Australia several years ago. After three
months it has not yet entirely ended. 1t
lasted in its greatest dimensions three
months and forced the price of house
coal up to $40 Il ton in London. Three
quarters of II million men, women and
children We're toward its close dependent
on public charity for every bite of food
they got. In Lancashire alone 800. 900
persons were thus dependent. =
The result at the end did not Justify
the long privation. The striking miners
did not gain all of what they strove to
win. Those that were taken back re-
turned mostly at the old wages. it is true,
but in south Derbyshire and Leicester
shire they resumed work on the under.
standing with the mine owners that they
were to be cut down 10 per cent in De-
ceinber. The real gain of this long
struggle lies in the fact that it has called
public attention in Great Britain to the
way i'll which the mine owners impose
upon both the miners and the public.
In nearly every case where the men
went back 70 work it was as the result of
a conference called by the mayors of the
large cities in their district. 1t has been
revealed that ainonS mine owners exists
the keenest rivalry TO secure large coal
supply contracts, such us are given to
them by railway, steamshipand gas com
panies. To this end they cut down the
great contracts TO Il price almost below
the cost Of production. Then they make
it back by putting the rates up on the
private consumer on the one hand, and
emitting down the wages of the miner on
the other. 1t is time they came to the
end of their rope.
