A kiss imprinted on his sw~eetheart's
lips has involved Henry Ives, a Bergen
county, New Jersey, farmer in a suit.
Several months ago Ives met and wooed
Miss Annie Rafferty,, a comely young
oma living in Manchester township.
His wooing o o ripened into a be-
trothal. Miss Rafferty, had told him
during their first tryst that she would
permit none but her future husband TO
give her a lovers kiss, and her coyness
won Henry's heart. When about to go
away one evening several weeks ago
Mr.. Ives gave his sweetheart a long
parting kiss, during which the gold
filing in Miss Rafferty's teeth came
out. She told him Of the mishap,
thinking he would compensate her for
her loss. He did not, however, and
nov Miss Rafferty, has retained counsel
and has brought suit against Ives. She
had the teeth retlled and has furnished
the lawyer with "a bill of expenses. The
young woman's suit has frightened the
farmer and the engagement is off.

SAMOAN ISLANDS.

State of Political Unrest Continues,
With no Prospect of Termination.
Correspondence of the Associated Press.
APIA, Nov. There is but little of
importance to report fran these islands.
The state of political unrest still con-
tinues, without any prospect of termi-
nation. From all appearances it would
appear as though the Malietoa Govern
ment is doomed. There can be no longer
any doubt of the rebel party being
secretly assisted with view oil placing it
in power, and thus rendering German
annexation as protectorate easy of &C
complishment. The present President, a
German, is bitterly disliked on all sides.
He is extremely INDECENT and intolerant,
and his whole actions show him to be
antagonlStlc to the loyal Samoan party.
Truly Samoa is most unhappy country.
What with the indifference OF The three
great nations which took her matters in
hand and the general incapacity of the
foreign officials who have been foisted
upon us the position of these islands is a
hard one. And when, in addition to
this, we have irresponsible knownoth-
ings who, either for the sake of advertis-
ing themselves or some more I'M
scrupulous purpose, are necessarily STIR
ring up strife among the SamOanS. the
prospects for the future are gloomy.
Considerable progress is being made
by Chief Justice Ide with the land BUSH
ness, he having got through large num-
Der of cases since his arrival. He has
just given an important decision in re-
gard to the Interpretation OF Section of
Article ~. of the treaty, which decision
is very unpopular among many of the
Europeans, particularly the Germans,
who openly state their intention of work
ing for Ide's removal. The decision has
been favorably received by the natives
and by some of the foreigners, who main
tain it to be just and equitable one
The substance OF it is: The Land Com
mission had ruled that where land had
been purchased previous to 1879 the ques-
ton of whether it had been purchased
from the rIghtful owner could not be
raised on behalf of native objectors
Chief Justice Ide has reversed this
ruling, maintaining in effect that such
question materially affects the validity Of
aliens titles.
The Land Commission has almost COM
pleted its labors. Its mem berS proceed
TO Atua tomorrow, and the hearing of
cases will be completed in about ten days.
Mr.. Chambers, the United States Com
missioner, returns to the States by the
next steamer, while the German Com
missioner will leave a few days later
The British Commissioner will remain
with the Secretary to finish of the routine
work connected with reporting claims to
the Supreme Court.

in-Chief Lawler of the @. A. r. and his
Adiutant-Genera J. J. Jones, arrived
to-day to present 10 President Cleveland
the resolution adopted by the National
Encampment at Pittsburg protesting
against the discharge OF veterans of the
late war from Government positions.
President Cleveland did not come in
from his country place at Woodley to
day. so that it is doubtful II the O.. a. Il.
delegates were able TO see him.
General Lawler says that he does not
intend TO make any speech, but will be
prepared to answer any questions if the
President desires information. He ia
fortified with data upon the discharges of
veterans from the departments collected
nv the local posts OF the G. A. X.
Mr. Lawler and Mr.. Jones called at the
White House at 800 and were received by

MulattoS Rare In EuroDe.

II was amazed to find what curiosity
a mulatto is in Europe" said man who
had just returned from a stay abroad.
II had one with me as sort of valet, and
was continually annoyed by people who
inquired about him. One fat German
with an Investigating propensity came
up and felt the mulatto's face. is he
painted? p he asked. l had difficulty in
trying to persuade him that light brown
was the mans natural color. He OF little
faith carefully and with an incredulous
air continued to rub his fingers across
the darkey's face, and when at last he
went away was still unconvinced. A
man who had once upon time visited
America wanted to know if the mulatto
was peculiar race that was found only
In the Southern States. He had been
only in the northern part OF the United
States when here and was not aware
whether or not the race that peopled the
Southern States were of strange color.
Many Of the Europeans had seen very
dark negroes, but they seemed never to
have beheld mulatto. louisville

Correspondence of the Associated Press

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
Honolulu, Nov. 15.-That the Govern
ment is slightly in fear of Royalist up
rising has been evidenced during the
past week. ALI the guards in the sub
urbs have been doubled, and a close
watch kept on all suspected persons. The
cause of this sudden activity is alleged to
be the discovery of plot to restore the
ex-Queen. The restoring party was sup
posed to be led by San Francisco news
paper man, who has been in Honolulu
for some months. His house has been
closely watched during the last few
weeks, and some days before the Austria
liza left last Saturday he was told by At
torney- General Smith that it would be
much better for him to take that steamer
than to remain here. He did so, but the
Government has not relaxed its watchful-
ness on account of his departure.
One of the most prominent and richest
Royaiists in the city said, few evenings
ago:
People who think our cause is dead
will be treated to surprise in the near
future which will make them open their
eyes. We have made many attempts TO
arouse the Royalists to sense of their
time, however, / think we have succeeded
and will accomplish our end. Whether
we succeed or not is difficult to say, but
II we did not think we would, we would
not attempt revolution"
1t is known that considerable number
OF guns and ammunition have been Sc
cretly brought here during the last few
months, and the Royalists evidently in
tend to make use of them. No uneasi-
ness is felt by the Government party,
however, which seems perfectly we'll
satisfied that it can hold its own.
THE NEWSPAPER MAN IN THE PLOT.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 22.-The news
paper man mentioned in connection with
the Hawaiian Royalists' conspiracy is
Claud III. Wetmore, who first went to
Honolulu as correspondent of a Chicago
paper, but came back, working on San
Francisco papers several months. and
finally returned to Honolulu few weeks
ago, soon after his marriage to young
lady of Santa Cruz. Two stories are heard
here. One is that Wetmore conspired
with the Royalists, as told in the Homo
lulu correspondence. Another is that he
ingratiated himself with the Royalists,
learned their secrets, and exposed the
whole plot to the Government, after
which Government officers went through
the process of deporting him in order to
shield the real nature of his relations with
them.

The new election law is great inn

still room for many important changes,
especially as regards counting the ballots.
We should adopt the New York plan of
counting the ballots every hour, so that
when the polls are closed the result is
known shortly afterwards. More safe
guards should be thrown around primary
elections and conventions. This done we
would have an ideal election law.
