Gayly Decked Immigrants.

A picturesque party of Italian immi
grants linded at the barge Office the
other day. There were about dozer
men and six or eight women. The men
wore clothing of rough, buff colored
material, with scarfs and caps of bright
er hues. The women displayed variety
of gay colors-red, yellow, blue and pink
predominating. Each woman was bare
headed, but each wore ribbons in her
hair and bright colored shawl or apron.
The strangers attracted great deal OF
attention as they struggled up Broadway
from the Battery with their bundles.
They evidently found as much novelty
in their surroundings as the New York
ers found in their quaint appearance.
The women apparently had the keenest
observation and pointed out to their
more stolid male companions various OBJ
jects as the party moved along.
At Rector street they saw a flower
stand, and half dozen of the women
gathered about it and gave vent to volu-
BILE expressions of delight. They dragged
some of the men before the stand and
gesticulated violently. The men tried
to pull away from them, but could not.
After awhile some pieces of money came
ont of the mems pockets, and with
much eagerness and chattering the WON
en- selected one flower apiece. The ven
dor took his pay out of the handful OF
American silver rendered him, and the
party moved on, both men and women
as joyous as lot of school children

Friend of the Farmer.

The hop growers of Otsego county
have discovered what naturalists have
long been trying to make farmers under
stand-that skunks, instead of being
their enemies, as they formerly supposed
are among their most useful friends. AS
one hop grower expressed it. eNowadays
we protect skunks as carefully as we do
song birds
Hop yards, it appears, are infested by
certain kind of grub which gnaws off
the tender vines at the root, and this
grub is the favorite food of the skunk.
AS general thing the skunks sally
forth at nightfall, but now and then they
are to be seen at work IN broad daylight.
The proceeding is an interesting one to
watch.
The skunk begins his quest on the edge
of the yard. where lie cocks his head over
hill of hops and listens. If a grub is
at work upon one of the four trailing
vines, his quick ear is sure to hear it. AT
once he begins to paw up the earth, and
presently heis seen to uncover the grub
and swallow it with unmistakable relish.
Then he listens again, and if he hears
nothing proceeds to the next hill. And
80 he goes on I'll he has had his fill.

Two Charges.

There was suit tried in the United

years ago in which Baltimore commits.

Bryan Grimes, who led the last charge
at Appomattox, was defendant. Judge
Bond, who presided, was strongly anti

who was very eloquent lawyer, repre-.
scented General Grimes, and in his APP

dwelt eloquently on the sslast charge at

The work Of : London writer,

'T. P" stands alone among popular
journalists in that practically all his
work is done for one paper, The Weekly
Sun, of which he is the founder and ed
itor. He knows as well as any one the
value of his own pen, and he takes care
to write the most important parts of the
paper himself and toappend his famous
initials to all his work. A casual glance
through number of the paper will serve
to show the amount andyariety of his
weekly labors.
First there is review of thes book
of the week, which invariably extends
over five closely packed columns. This
article, always conspicuously brilliant,
would be good two days work for
any writer. Then there are the editorial
notes from one to two columns; an inter-
view with some celebrity, one column;
theatrical critiques, two or three col
umns, and lastly few paragraphs on
the correspondence page. All these are

An Unsuccessful Persistent snitor.

One of the most persistent suitors who
ever proposed and was rejected was the
eccentric Cruden, compiler Of the con-
cordance to the Bible. Miss Abney, who
had inherited large fortune, was the
subject of his attentions. For months
and months he pestered her with calls
and letters. When she left home, he
had papers printed, which he distributed
in various places of worship, asking the
congregation to pray for her safe return,
and when she returned home he issued
others asking the worshipers to return
thanks. Miss Abney never became Mrs
Cruden. Brandon Bucksaw.

Various Sources of Silk.

Silk worms are not the sole source Of
the production of silk; it is also obtained
from several vegetable substances, but
OF an inferior and less durable descrip-
ton. Excellent colored. silk is obtained
from the prepared and finer fibers of the
bamboo, which is much in demand for
clothing in tropical countries from its
ightness and porosity. Another form Of
silk is obtained from the pods of the silk
cotton tree, of which there are several
varieties in existence, the material OBJ
tanned from them being known as vege-
table silk. -Brooklyn Eagle.

Welsh MINE HORROR
Three Hundred Men Entombed
in a Burning Colliery at
Pont-y-Pridd.
Rescuers Recover a Number Of
Bodies Fate of the Others
Still in Doubt.

LONDON, April IA frightful mine
accident occurred during the day at
Pont-y-Pridd, Wales. A spark from
an engine ignited the gas in the coal
pit near that place and caused it to
explode. Three hundred miners are
entombed in the mine. The engine
house is in flames and there is the
greatest fear that hundreds may have
persisted. The rescuers who went
down were driven back without being
able to bring up more than five of the
dead. The fate of the other miners is
in doubt. The most agonizing scenes
are witnessed and throngs of men,
women and children, relatives of those
below, are crowded about the mouth OF
the coal pit.
The Worst Feared.
Later advices from Pont-y-Pridd do
not tighten the calamity and the worst
fate is feared for hundreds of the min
ers. The pit is worked in sections, one
sean, being above another. The fire re-
sulting from the explosion broke out in
the eastern section. From this section
20 men succeeded in reaching the sur
face through the main dip-working
lead by a miner who knew the roads.
They had terrible struggle to get out.
forcing their way through fire and
smoke. Many of them were scorched
and all were terribly exhausted when
they emerged to safety. They brought
no good news as to those who were left
behind, but on the contrary expressed
their dread that all those in the mine
had persisted.

Minister Stevens Has the Govern
ment's Official Approval.

WAsHINGToN. Jan. 30.-There are some
Important developments in the Hawaiian
situation. First, it is pretty clearly indi-
Gated that the administration is not in any
way lukewarm In the matter, as was at first
supposed. Secondly. the action of he COM
mander OF. the Boston, against which Great
Britain is about to file or has filed formal
protest, has received the official approval Of
the President and his Cabinet
The sentiment in favor of annexation is
rapidly extending, and several members Of
the Cabinet have expressed themselves in
favor OF it. 1t is reported that President
Harrison is In favor of annexation. and
although the course pursued by Minister
Stevens in ordering the Boston's marines on
shore was without explicit instructions from
the Government his action has been fully
approved by the President.
In the Senate there is a dIsiinctively
American feeling on the Hawaiian question
which is not confined to any party. There
can be no doubt that majority OF the men,
bers of the Foreign Relations Committee
look with favor upon the establishment OF
American domination on the islands, but in
just what shape is matter of detail not yet
considered.
The objection to Chandler's resolution on
the subject as offered to-day is not looked
upon in way as a manifestation OF anti
annexation feeling. but rather as fear on
the part Of the opponents of the anti-optons
biii. that If it had not gone over until To-
morrow the day would have been spent in
its discussion. and the delivery of anti
option speeches would have been pre-
vented

ments from the Provisional Government by
the steamer Claudine.
One was from T. c. Jones, Minister Of
Finance, requesting him to Immediately
rescind recent order given to the WASH
ington mint for new coinage bearing the
'phiz" of ex-Queen Liliuokalani. The
coins were to consist of 100000 one-cent
pieces, 100000 nickels and 100000 dimes.
The work at the mint had fortunately not
gone far enough so that the resembling of
the order, which was promptly forwarded.
will not entail much loss or annoyance.
The other communication was from
Premier Dole and was clothed in the Ian
guage Of statecraft. Mr.. Pratt was in
formed that the Queen had been dethroned.
and that the Provisional Government was
in power.
He was notified that under the provisions
Of the proclamation issued By the commit
tee of safety hs is continued in Office as
Consul General at this port. and was re-
quested to send prompt notification to the
four Consuls in his Jurisdiction Of the
change of government.
Consul Pratt has sent reply to Premier
Dole ackno wledgng receipt of the notifca-
ton. aud that the instructions therein have
been carried out.
Both he and DR.. Mott Smith. the Minister
at Washington, now occupy rather anoma-
lous positions. Their commissions of Office
bear the seal Of the Queen. but they are no
longer her official servants but Of those who
have deposed her.
Mr.. Pratt desires to allay the apprehen-
sion of danger on the part OF intending
visitors TO Honolulu. Personal liberty has
been assured By the Provisional Govern
ment, and the natives have no intention
whatever Of committing any act Of lawless-
ness. Visitors would be as safe In Honolulu
or elsewhere on the Islands at midnight as
at noon on the streets of San Francisco.
