MADAGASCAR THE BONE.
FRANCE AND ENGLAND AT OUTS
OVER A POLICY.
Not Likely to be "a Conaict-Both Nations
Ready with Plain Talk on
Both Sides.

PARIS, October 3.-The Resident. Gen
eral of Madagascar, who is taking up
his quarters at Tamatave, has been
ordered to protect French residents even
at the risk of war.
LONDON, October A section of the
press assert that the Cabinet is meeting
solely to discuss diplomatic difficulty
with France, and that the position is
critical.
The French Government has denied
that there is any intention to proclaim a
blockade of Madagascar.
1t is believed that the French cruisers
have been only directed to prevent the
import OF arms.
Diplomatists believe that NJ Decrals,
the French Ambassador at London, re-
signed because Ii. Hanotaux, the French
Minister of Foreign Affairs, is conduct
ing his negotiations with England in an
arbitrary and uncompromising spirit.
The French Government has com
planned that British officers are drilling
the Hovas.
The Times says that England will
allow France a free hand in Madagascar
within reasonable limits. No question
in dispute is likely to suddenly threaten
the good relations of the two countries
The Standard considers France is
utterly mistaken if she thinks that
England will allow annexation for the
purpose of establishing naval stations
menacing British trade routes. 1t re-
minds France that if war occurs the
usual result will ensue of British
Colonial expansion at the expense of
the adversary.
The Hovas are importing large guam
titles of Sniders and machine guns
from Africa and the Cape. They hope
to induce Cape Colonists to enlist for
service in Madagascar.
The Exchange is excited. Consols
are weak at 101. Colonial stock has
fallen from half to three-quarters in
sympathy.
1t lie officially stated that there is no
connection between the simultaneous
meetings of the English and French
Cabinets.
Lord Dufferin and NJ. Courcel the
respective ambassadors, are both absent
on leave.
The greatest reticence is observed in
as to the progress of events in regard to
the trouble that has arisen in connec-
ton with France and Madagascar. A
good deal OF speculation is INDUCED in
by the press, but nothing authoritative
is yet made public.
1t is reported that part OF the British
Channel Squadron has been ordered to
Gibralter.
| Admiral Fame, Superintendent at
Portsmouth, has been in consultation
with the managers OF the dockyards. 1t
is reported that he has been ordered to
hurry on the completion of the new
ships and the repairs to those in dock
1.-THE Channel Squadron consists Of
nine ships, famely: III. NJ. S. Barrossa
third class cruiser; II. NJ. S. Blenheim
first-class cruiser; II. NJ. S. Empress Of
India, the flagship OF the second in com
mand on the station, a cruiser OF 14,00(

THE DALEY COMPANY.
BLACK Flag" the Most Successful Effort
Yet Made.


Mr.. Daley is to be congratulated upon
the success attained by his company in
the difficult productions put on this
week. On Tuesday evening Faust"
was successfully presented, and last
night that beautiful comic melo-drama,
The Black Flag" was put on and was
made a grand success. Each and every
member Of the company should be COM
plimented. Lines were perfect, acting
excellent, and costumes appropriate.
The only great fault to be noticed was
the smallness of the house. The build
ing should have been packed with people
on an occasion like last night.
Mortimer Snow, Richard Scott, P. A..
Nannary and Kttie Belmour, repre-
senting the Glyndon family, were at
their best. Snow was specially good in
several strong climaxes, and Nannary
as the old father has never appeared to
better advantage. Miss Dalgleish as
Naomi sustained her character harm
ingly and achieved fresh laurels for her
self. Al Hallett as Lazarus carried the
eyes and ears OF the house with him. He
was No. Israelite. Miss Nannary, az
Ned, was perfect success. The role
could not have been better placed, anc
could not have been more effectivel,
interpreted. Weiner, Belmour anC
Mollie Stockmeyer were decidedly abov,
the marx.

Monkeys That Enjoy a Joke.

In large cage in the Philadelphia
zoo were kept at one time about 20 mon
keys. Among them were two big, wise
looking apes with gray boards and hair,
and with the mien Of stoics. They had
very long, straight tails, and habit OF
sitting high up from the ground and al
lowing their tails to hang at full length
In the same cage were three or four brown
cebus monkeys, who were much devoted
to exercise and fun.
While the big monkeys would cling to
the side of the cage or sit on perch
some 10 or ~ feet from the ground one
of the little brown monkeys would
stealthily creep up to one of them and
suddenly grasp the end of the long tail
and swing with all its might. OF course
the "big un" could not lift his tail be.
cause of the weight of the little monkey
clinging to it. He could only climb down
the side of the cage with his burden I'M
til he could reach the floor.
During this operation the brown mon
key kept swinging until his own tail
touched the floor. ut which instant he
would release his hold and spring to the
top of the cage, followed by the outraged
monkey amid the screams of the others.
By the time he had reached a poin
where he could attack his little tor
mentor, who would show some signs o
resistance and cause him to pause for /
moment, another brown monkey woulC
seize his long tail and take swing.-R

WHY RICHARDSON WAS JUDGED.
The Facts About the Row Kicked Up at
Wailuku.

The Facts About the Row Kicked Up at
waiIuku.
The facts as to the disturbance at Wal
luku on Friday, October 12th, resulting
in the arrest of John Richardson, the
attorney, are at hand. They may be
briefly stated as follows: On October 10th
Deputy Sheriff King and Captain Lind
sey arrested a runner or agent of a paka-
pio bank at Kahului. The prosecution
asked for continuance of the case
until the l2th, and bail was fixed at $50.
Richardson, who had taken the case for
the Chinaman, kicked on general prin
$40. The Court reduced the bail to $25.
On the 12th the case came to tial.
After prosecution ended motion was
made by defendants counsel for dis
charge for want of evidence. Motion
was overruled. Defendants counsel
then moved to continue the clse until
the 18th; overruled. Richardson then
declined TO offer evidence for the de-
fence.
\ The Court then reserved Judgment
until the 18th, when the prose ;uti n
asked that the b. il be raised to $50.
While the prosecution was presenting
this motion Richardson ordered
the Chinaman to fly. This the
Celestial tried to do but was
stopped by order of the sheriff.
Richardson thereupon visited the Clerk
OF Court, and returning took his client
forcibly from the room. Shereiff An
drews ordered policeman to stoE
them, but the latter was dragged into
the street and along the sidewalk, unit
two other officers came out anC
anchored" the fleeing party.
Sheriff Andrews then approached ant
tried to persuade Richardson to RELEASE
the Chinaman, telling him that if h,
persisted in resisting the officers he tO'
would be arrested. He refused to desis!
aud both men were accordingly arreste,
(, and locked up. The Chinamans bal
/ was then fixed at $50 and Richardson
at 800.

FROM THE SOUTH SEAS.


Captain Turpie, who has labored for
many years in connection with the
London Missionary Society's work in
the Pacific, was recently interviewed at
Adelaide, and speaking of the island
trade, he is reported to have said: "The
condition of the islands today is very
different to what it was thirty years
ago. The mission flag has opened the
way for the trader, and made it profit
able as well as safe for him. like to be
definite on this point, because / have
had to fight it out before, and / dis.
tinctly state that the mission flag
L. NJ. S. has preceded the trader in the
Society Group, the Austral Group, the
Hervey Group, the Samoan Group. the
New Hebrides, the Loyalty Group, New
Guinea, and many other separate isles
of the Pacific.
The Wesleyan Society can claim the
same for Fiji Tonga, New Britain and
other islands. The Presbyterians, too,
have their claim, in the northern rart
OF New Hebridees. 1t is perfectly true
that the trader pitches his tabernacle
under the lee of the missionary in
many instances, and there is no
antagonism or ill-feeiling between
them. Undoubtedly, there has
been very great increase in trade
amongst the islands during the last
thirty-eight years. 1t was practically
nil then, and we so seldom saw ship
other than our own that Sail, no!
would bring all hands on deck in double
quick time. Very little clothing sufiiced
on some islands, and that was mostly OF
a cloth made from the bark of the paper
mulberry; on other islands no clothing
was worn at all.
Trading vessels follow each other SO
closely that any group is seldom with
out two or three cruising in search of
island produce, which is paid for by
British manufacturers principally, and
at central ports ships are continuously
loading for European ports and very
frequently for Liverpool with copra,
which is the kernel of the cocoanut
dried IN the sun. The latest fashions
now reach the islands, and silks and
ostrich feathers, of all the colors of the
rainbow, adorn the modern island belle.
They like gay colors, look well in them,
and like good article for their money
1t is mistake for traders to suppose
that any thing is good enough for the
South Seas. "-Sdmodn Herald.

Election day is ten days off.

A Man Who Could Keep His Temper.
"a man may be pretty smart in a great
many things, but it isn't everybody that
knows how to hold his temper, remarked
Clarke Warren of New Orleans at the
Lindell yesterday. Il saw very odd
case down in Mississippi last week. II
was in a railroad restaurant. A young
lawyer, a mammoth fellow physically
had some words with a colored waiter.
The negro was very abusive, and at one
stage of the quarrel pulled gun. We
all thought that that meant death for
one or the other of them, but no; the
lawyer did not seem bit worried, and
some bystanders took the gun from the
waiter The latter then followed the
young fellow out to the platform and re-
newed his abuse and demands for salts
faction. The rest of us were dumfound
ed at the action of the lawyer. He was
evidently no coward, and it was just al
| evident that he was more than mattel
for the waiter.
"Finally the negro struck at him
merely knocking his hat off. Then some
one hustled him away After he wa.
gone somebody spoke to the young fel-
low about it, and he said it would be
poor policy for him to disgrace his fam
| lily by becoming a murderer, and that il
would be just as disgraceful for him tC
engage in fist fight. Another thing, il
would do that waiter good to be laugh
q lesson. and on his return he would
have him arrested and sent to prison fol
o year or 50. That man knew how t
keep his temper, and guess, after all, h,
took the right view of the matter. st

What the schutzens Tried to DO and
Failed.
Mr.. ID. Logan, editor OF the Bulletin,
has refused to run as candidate on the
Schutzen Clubs independent ticket. He
was approached Thursday afternoon by
George Cavanaugh OF the organization
named who offered to present petition
bearing the requisite number of sigma
lures on condition that Mr.. Logan
stand for the House of Representatives
Be it said to the credit of Mr.. Logan and
for the benefit of the Schutzen Company
that the proposition was rejected. Mr..
Logan's reply was in effect that he had
pledged himself to the real party and
though some names on the ticket were
not his choice, he would support the
nominations and platform OF the
American Union party:
1t may be said too, in this connection
that the independent ticket proposed by
the Schutzens has fallen throul h.
their intention was to endorse five men
of the twelve on the ticket of the Amer
lean Union party and to put up seven
others. d. Logan, P. Neumann, II.
Klemme, John Emmeluth and j. a.
Magoon were five of the seven slated
OF these all positively declined to run
except III. Klemme and he refused to
have his name go on the ticket pro
posed. Thus has fishing for independ
ents been attended with the luck ap
piled so frequently to fishermen.
