BEHR1NG SEA ARBITRATION.
General Belief That the Decision Will
Favor the United States.

Favor the United States.
WASHINGTON. July 1.-THE advance
guard of the returning Behring sea
commission has arrived in the persons
of Major E. w. Halford and j. Stanley
Brown. Major Halford has formally
reported his return to the department
of state and has surrendered his vouch-
ers, showing the expenditures made by
him on account of the commission up
to the date when he returned his bal
ance, but he turned his balance over to
Agent Foster and started for the
United States.
Major Halford believes that the arbi-
tration will be concluded in a shorter
time than the three months allowed
by the treaty under which the proceed
ings r being conducted. The arbi-
traitors nearly all have good reasons to
press the work before them to a con-
clusion.
Senator NJ organ is so deeply interested
in investigations that are to come be.
fore congress that it is almost,necessary
for him to return to the United States
as soon as the session begins.
The impression in Paris, derived
from the questions put from time to
time by the arbitrators during the
course of the long argument, is that
the arbitration will result in a decision
recognizing the property right of the
United States in the seals to a more or
less limited degree, and recommending
some international agreement for the
protection of seal life.

DoLRH HITS THE NAIL.
Thinks BiounPs Report Was for
a Certain Purpose.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Ex-senator
Dolph, member of the Senate Com
mittee on Foreign Relations, who
has read with considerable care the
report of Blount, says the report
reads very much as if prepared by
a man sent to the Islands for a
certain purpose, and that purpose
to show that what had been done
was wrong. He did not think the
Administration had been strength
ened by the present action in
Blount's report, but the more care
fully it was considered the more
apparent it would be that Blount
was sent to the Islands to report
against the action of Minister Stew
ems and the Provisional Govern
ment. Dolph says it is, perhaps,
true that our Minister acted some
what hastily, but it is not shown
the revolution would not have &C.
CURED or the queen have been de-
throned, nor had it been proven,
there having been an established
government recognized by this Gov
erment, that this Government had
any right to overthrow it and re-
establish either the old or new Gov
eminent. The Senator added there
was not so much interest in Blount's
but that the most important
document and what all would like
to see is that containing the in
structions to Minister Willis.

A PREcoCIoUs GOAT.
He Breaks Up the Gravity of a
Church Service.


During the services of the Second
Congregation of St.Andrew's Cathe-
dral Sunday, large, fine-looking
dog, the property of one Of the
sailors of the Champion, wandered
up the aisle, and commenced to
look for his master, who was pres
ent with a number of others of the
Champions crew. Not finding the
man he was looking for, he was
carried out of the church by one of
the men.
This calls to mind a ludicrous
incident that occurred in one of the
local churches some years ago. A
man-of-war was in port that had
on board billy goat that was the
pet of the crew. 1t would follow
those whom it liked with the fdel-
ity of dog, and was made much
of by all hands.
One Sunday a number of the
crew came ashore to attend
church. Billy had been left on
board, supposedly safe, as no
more boats were thought to be
coming in. But the goat was
smart. Those of the crew who had
gone to church were his especial
favorites, and his spirit revolted at
being left behind. So when a boat
was ordered ashore, Billy was one
of the first passengers to step
aboard.
When he got ashore, he followed,
like hound, in the footsteps of his
chums. He followed them to the
church door, and when he got
there the idea of the services being
held did not deter him in the
slightest. He moved up one aisle
and down another, searching for
his friends, but for some reason
none of them could be found.
Then he halted, directly under the
pulpit, and in as loud and resonant
a voice as he could command, he
came out with three hoarse "Baa-
baa-baa's."
This was too much for the
gravity of the congregation, and
many a smile was covered with a
fan. while Billy was ignominiously
carried from the church by a
sailor.

The Hawaiian Back. Down.

Since his appointment as Secre-
tary of State, Gresham has seen
fit to keep his head out of the gaze
of the public, knowing well that he
was regarded as sort of political
freak. But it has pleased him, at
length, to bob up serenely, and he
chooses for the occasion the an
nouncement of the Governments
policy toward Hawaii. Doubtless
the reader will be amazed as he
reads the Secretary's message, and
wonder what possessed him to take
such an unpatriotic course. To
understand it he must understand
Gresham, and know that the key
to the latter's whole foreign policy
is influenced by hatred for ex-
President Harrison. 1t was suffi-
cieRt for Gresham to know that the
former President desired the an
nexation of Hawaii. That single
fact damned the proposed course
in his eyes. Accordingly he makes
use of the Spreckels-inspired report
of Commissioner Blount as a justi-
fication of his desire to do the very
opposite of what Harrison would
have done in relation to Hawaii.
He affects to believe that ex-Min-
lister Stevens misstated the condi-
ton of affairs in the islands, and
that he was part of the conspiracy
to dethrone Queen Liliuokalani.
He also discredits the representa-
tions of the Commissioners Of the
Provisional Government of Hawaii
who came here to propose annexa-
ton. And thus have given the lie
to Stevens, the Provisional Govern
ment and Thurston, what does be
propose to do? Nothing much.
Only just that the Government as
sist in restoring to Hawaii the rule
of the dissolute Liliuokalani.-Troy

Better Go Slow.

There are two roads in which the
Democratic party will do well to go
slow. The first is that leading to
the imposition of an income tax /;
the other leading to the restoration
of a monarchy in the government
of the Hawaiian Islands. Judging
from the results of the late election,
that organization is in no condition
to fool with the temper of the
American people, and the adoption
by it of either of the'proposed mea-
sures referred to above will be pretty
certain to aggravate existing rela-
tions, which seem to be badly
strained, to say the least, at the
present time.-Washington Star.

A MISERABLE PERFORMANCE
SATURDAY NIGHT.
Alleged Acrobats Cavort A.
round the Stage Before
Less than Thirty
People.

Thursday night last a perform
ance was given at the Opera House
that was a credit to that institu-
ton. Saturday night, however, to
make things even, about as poor a
conglomeration of talent grouped
itself together on the stage as it
has ever been the misfortune of
Honolulu theatre-goers to witness.
The show was called a "Grand
Gymnastic Performance by Com
pany of Spanish Artists" 1t was
certainly "gymnastic," but where
the "grand" came in only the man
who did the advertising knows.
The Hawaiian National band,
which furnished the music for the
alleged performance, did more
work than anybody else in the
house. They played during the
whole performance, from s till 10
o'clock. They were the only saw
ing clause in the evening.
The first number on the pro-
gramme was called 'The Pirate"
and was performed by two gentle
men of supposed Spanish descent,
one of whom tried to be funny.
The latter failed dismally in his
laudable purpose, however, and
the other dark-skinned gentleman
found that all the work of this part
of the performance devolved on
him. Just why the act was called
"The Pirate" is difficult to i'm
agine, unless because it was pirated
from some other acrobatic show.
But Mr.. Cruz, the gymnast, turned
first one sonersault and then
another, and patiently waited after
each feat for the applause that
didn't come.
After few attempts at
different acrobatic feats, the
number called on the pro-
gramme GA Flying Dutchman
Jumping Through Cylinder on
Fire." came to hand. A large
paper cylinder was brought on the
stage, and, with great solemnity,
six candles were placed in the in
side of it, and lighted. Then
Mr.. Benigno took run across the
stage, and essayed to jump through
this "cylinder on fire." He missed
it By about two feet, however, and
the "cylinder" came to grief.
This same Benigno tried to walk
on a slack wire without a bal
ancing pole. After falling off three
times, he managed to walk across
the stage, and the proudest mo-
ment of his life was at hand. Amid
the deafening applause of the
twenty.one people who were pres
ent at the performance, the curtain
fell amid blaze of glory, and the
worst show of years was over. 1t
is greatly to be hoped that every
one who paid a dollar for a seat,
performed some sort of penance
yesterday, in expiation of such a
rash expenditure of money.

The war in Matabeleland demonstrates
that the machine gun is mightier than

IS Of no avail when opposed to the dead
ly engines Of modern warfare. A few
years ago Lobengula could have easily
routed his foes in single enSagumsnk.

1t is the old story, the old coufict-be-

that high moral plane where we may
