A Modern Jonah.

London Culver is responsible for
this unlikely story. People of the
free-thlnking class often dispute the
story of Jonah and the whale, not so
much on account of it's improbabllity,
as because it is in the Bible. They
declare that the whale never lived
that could swallow a man, but such
persons should remember that the
word "whale" as used in Holy Writ
referred to any large species of fish.
Not long since a shark and a sailor in
the Mediterranean Sea re enacted the
part Of Jonah and the whale to per-
lection. The man fell overheard, and
instantly disappeared in the mouth of
monster shark. The captain fired
Il gun at the beast from the deck, and
as the shot plowed through it's back
1t cast the man out again and he was
rescued, perfectly unhurt, butso bad.

EdisOn'S Latest Idea.

A great deal of comment is being
published in Eastern papers concern
ing Edison's latest idea. He believes
that within hundred years the HUI
man race will sleep but one hour in
twenty-four. For argument he claims
that in the old times when light was
expensive people went to bed at SUD-
down for want of something better to
do; that we, as a people, sleep less
every year on account of our having
30 much light. His chief thought is
that a person needs no sleep and that
sleep is habit that can be broken.
While we entertain the greatest ad-
mlration for the famous electrician,
still we cannot convince ourselves
that he will be able to make his the
DRY popular. The idea of old Sancho
Panza will have the greater follow
ing, who said: "God bless the man
who first invented Sleep Eureka

The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being constitutional disease, re-
quires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken inter-
nally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroyingthe foundation of
the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have 30
much faith in it's curative powers,
that they offer One Hundred Dollars
for any case that it fails to cure.

A SALOON MAN ASSAULTED.
Two Natives, Bottle of Saki and
Some Glasses the Cause.

Fred Leslie, the manager of the
Cosmopolitan saloon, was brutally
assaulted yesterday afternoon by
two natives who were afterwards
arrested. According to the injured
mans story, the attack was I'M
provoked and he intends to pro-
secute the offenders in a vigorous
manner. The natives entered his
place and called for a bottle of
saki and four glasses. Their re-
quest was complied with and soon
after one of the men threw a glass
on the floor, breaking it. Leslie
cautioned the men and in reply
they broke a second one; then the
barkeeper took away the bottle of
liquor and went behind the bar.
The men became enraged and one
threw a glass which struck Leslie
on the right cheek. The glass cut
deep into the flesh causing blood
to flow freely. The men followed
this up by knocking him down
and beating and kicking him. The
police finally arrived and arrested
the two men.

WAIALUA'S WAY.
For Road Improvement and Prefer

\ meeting of the Waialua Road
Board was held at the Court House
on Monday, November 9Th, to de-
eide what course ought to be
adopted regarding a certain piece
of very bad road on the Mokuleia
plains leading to the Gay and
Jasper cattle ranches. After a
lengthy discussion by the members,
it was decided, on a suggestion by
Chairman E. Hore, to lay the
matter before the Minister of the
Interior, as the district funds would
not be sufficient to complete the
job.
After settling the former and
several minor questions pertaining
to repairs recently done, it was de-
cided not to employ in the future,
as far as practicable, any laborers
who had not taken the oath to sup
port the Republic of Hawaii.

porters of this Government ought
to feel proud of the fact that we
have such capable and clear
headed man at the head Of our

| for one think that this gentle
mans action in refusing permission
to allow the landing of British
troops for drill to be perfectly con-
sistent, considering the extraordin-

Minister, and think it decidedly
inconsistent on his part to expect
any concession from the Provisional
Government, whom he refuses to
recognize-especially after having
requested this Government to recog-
nize Queen Victoria's birthday,
which they did, in face of previous
snubs.

In view of a possibility that the

the Pacific cable route, III. M. sur
veying ship Penguin, which re-
turned to port says the Samoan
Herald of June 9th, will shortly
commence some important work
between Queensland and these ISL
auds. The ship is at present
under orders to make survey of
Jervis bay, and as soon as this
work has been completed, prob
ably in a month hence, she will
proceed northward and take a line
of soundings from point north of
Brisbane to the Solomon islands in
connection with the proposed Pa
cifc cable. The ship will suose-
quently make stay of several
months in the islands, the officers
meanwhile completing the survey
of the group. The Solomon ISL
ands, it will be remembered, were
only recently placed under the
British flag.

The Caroline Group.

! Recent advices concerning the
rebellion at Ponape, the principal
island in the Caroline Group, state
that things are being run with a
high hand both by the hostile ma
tives and the Spanish. Paul, the
first chief of Ponape, still holds his
own with 500 or 600 well-armed
men, and the Spaniards do not at
tempt, or possibly are unable to
subdue the rebellion. A Spanish
cruiser is stationed at Ponape, but
the rebellious tribe is firmly en-
sconced in their end of the island,
and the Spanish fear to make any
attempt to dislodge them. The
white men are placed in a very en-
barrassing position. The Span
iards are also having lots of trouble
in the Philippines, where they are
