What They Did.

An officer in the treasury at Washing
ton, who was q resident OF that city at
the time of the commencement OF the
.slittle dispute" witnessed the hasty re-
turn of the panic stricken Union troops
after the first battle of Bull Run. He
says:
The whole city was in great state OF
excitement, and for few hours every
thing seemed completely denoralized.
Each man had some awful story to tell
and had no trouble in finding an audience
to listen to his recital.
Among other veracious accounts was
that given by colored teamster from .
Virginia regiment, who attracted quite
a crowd of eager listeners in Willards
hotel.
..De fust ting we knowed we see de
sogers comm, an l should tink dar war

yariOus 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
lightness ard 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 ~ vege-

That Is the Condition Of the
American ProteCtOrate
in Honolulu.


HoxoluLr. April II. The stars and
stripes, which for two months have
foated from the government building.

indicative of American authority re
mains in Honolulu save Minister Stev-
ems and Commissioner Blount. The re-
port that Commissioner Blount would
order the flag down and the protectorate
abolished got abroad the night OF March
81. and the occurrence created among
the American party "A feeling OF conster-
nation. This was due to the fact per
haps. that Blount maintained Chinese
wall about the purposes ot mission ana
satisfied neither side as to whether he
came as an envoy to investigation or a
minister to negotiate. On the afternoon
of March 81 Bount had a lengthy secret
conference with President Dole and the
cabinet. after which he notified them OF
his intention to declare off the protector
ate established by Minister oteNehs i eo.
|. 1t is understood he gave as reason
that the Washington administration did
not regard protection as necessary, ana
further, il is incompatible with any dip
lomatic negotiations between the two
countries. The United States. however
would brook no hostile interference In
Hawaiin affairs by any foreign power
CONSCIOUS of their strength. in view of
the latter assurance. the provisional gov
ernment. though somewhat reluctantly
acguiesced in the commissioners deeis,

to maintain peace and quiet which had
continued almost unbroken during thu

The ready acceptance by lawyers OF
fees and '.retainers' from bad men, and
especially from those whom the public
feel to be working against their inter-
ests. is often the occasion of sarcastic
remarks.
A certain prominent lawyer was asked
by an acquaintance if the report were
true that he had gone into the service OF
a corporation which had been suspected
on pretty good evidence of bribing men,
bers of legislature.
oh" said the lawyer: i've not gone
into their service have simply agreed
not to join the other side.
And you have taken fee for that:
.Oh, naturally they sent me an homo.
rarium."
.Ah, I'm glad to know it was that.
