was used at the councils of the high
| chiefs. 1t measures 101 by 90 feet,
and is woven so finely that it is as
soft and pliable as cloth. These mats
are now difficult to obtain, and are
growing rarer each year.
A feather helmet that belonged TO
Kaumalii, the last chief of Kauai. is
another valuable thing that belongs
to the Government. Kaumalii was
summoned to appear before the chief
OF Oahu, and, fearing that he was
going to lose his life, he left his he'll
met-the most valuable treasure he
possessed-with a missionary friend
of his, to keep for him, in case he
should escape the de tth penalty.
kaumalii was not killed, but. in some
way, the missionary very conven-
1ently forgot to return the helmet to
him, and, at her death, it was put IN
at auction and bought 10y the Govern
ment.
Probably the finest collection of
tapa is exhibited at the Museum that
is in existence today Not only Ha-
waIian tapas are shown, but Samoa
and many other Southern groups are
represented. Many of them are as
soft as silk, while others are of the
usual coarse texture that distinguishes
the tapa of commerce.
1HeTe Is also Il Hne collection of rare
birds that occupies the centre of this
room. Beautiful specimens of the 90
and many other island birds are ex-
hibited. The most valuable pair in
the case are the Moho birds, which
have no wings or tails, and are most
curious looking. Their legs Were very
muscular, and they could run with
great speed. They are unknown here
now, none having been seer for thirty
years, but still exist on few of the
farther south. The value of
this pair is set al $500.
In the hall opposite the kahili room
are kept the ancient Hawaiian relics
of minor value, as well as specimens
that are most interesting. 1t is in

Survival OF the f'ittest.

A rancher in the ncighhoring val
ley is said to be killing range horse
and feeding his hogs upon the car
casses. He has Indians to do the
killing by shooting the horses with q
rife. The horses are very wild, but
the Indians slip upon the band and
succeed in shooting one horse down,
the others throw up their heads and
tails and begin to plunge about in
dlsmay, every few moments going
closer to the dying animal, when
another is brought down, and so on,
until lately one Indian killed in a few
minutes, an entire band OF 81 horses.

The Egglesion Murder.

M. J. Carney, who arrived in Carsor
last Tuesday from Antelope Valley
stated that Mrs. Strickland and hel
husband are under arrest, charged
with the murder of Mrs. Eggleston
some weeks ago at that place. Tae
Coroners jury returned a verdict that
Mrs. Eggleston came to her death by
being struck with blunt instrument
in the hands of Mrs Strickland.
Her husband is held as accessory,
and probably will be released. The
strong evidence against her is that
the dress she wore the day OF the
murder was covered with blood stains
which she could not account for.
NJ. Carney is Coroner, and is in q
position to know the facts. There is
no truth in the report that Dick
Watkins is under arrest, charged
with the crime.

Silver Star.

1t is reported that Thorn & George
have made location in Silver Sta,
District which is likely to prove
valuable. Samples sent to Hawthorne
show free gold in the quartz. The
ledge at the surface is about two feet
thick. Frank Thorn came to town
Saturday to procure a windlass and
other necessary tools. He says a"l0-
inch streak on the hanging wall will
pay 500 per ton, and that the ledge
as whole is the richest yet found
in the district. 1t is called the Onei-

NJ Z. Ward returned Saturday
night from q visit south to Soda
Springs, about thirty miles from
Hawthorne. Mr. Ward says it is the
best poor mans district that he
knows of. He brought back speci-
men of black metal silver that will
assay 81, 500 ounces to the ton. Mr..
Ward has great confidence in the flu
ture of the camp, and believes it will
be great gold producer in the near
future, to say nothing about it's
chance for the development of rich
silver mines.
Ross Condor and George Baule

They have good outfit and are fixed
to stay six months, if need be, Bat
they are good miners and will no
doubt get something good in a short

A Money Party.

A Washington dispatch last Sat.
urday contained the following:
The Presidents veto OF the Bland
bill has resulted in a proposition for
q national convention for the Yves;
and South to form a new political
party, based on the demand for the
free coinage of silver. The Western
and Southern Democrats who sra at
the head Of this movement declare
the veto of the Bland bill shows that
the Administration has set its face
toward single gold standard.
Representative McLaurin, a
South Carolina Democrat, has taken
the initiative step. Mr., McLaurin
says he has talked with many of the
southern and western members OF
Congress, and he had yet to find a
single Democrat who has not agreed
with him that the time has come
when eastern financial ideas must be
repudiated. He said that in the fight
to follow, the dividing line would be
the Allegheny mountains and the
Potomac river on the south, and the
west against the east.
Party lines woull not nace sarilv
be drawn. Members of old parties
would be invited. The issue would
solely be monetary one. Represent
alive Bland said the plan had not yes
been submitted to him.

The Birth of the Rose.

There are two traditions as to tho
origin Of the rose According to Sir
John Vaudeville, a Jewish maid of
Bethlehem whom Southey names
Zillah) was beloved by british sot
named Hamrnel. The maiden reject.
ed this sutton, and he, in revenge, ac-
cused Zillah of offenses for which she
was condemned to be burned alive.
When brought to the stale, the flames
refused to hurt Zillah, but burned
Hammel to a cinder. There she
stood in a garden of roses, for tho
brands which had been kindled be-
came red roses, and those which had
not caught fire white ones.
These, according to the tradition,
were the first roses that bloomed on
earth since the loss Of paradise.
Then, according to a Mussulman ira
dition, the rose is thus accounted for:
When Mohammed took his journey
to heaven, the sweat which fell on
the earth from the prophets fore
head produced white roses, and that
which fell from the animal he rode
upon, named Al Boral, produced yell
low ones. At the present day the
sellers of roses in eastern towns cry
aloud in the streets. The rose was a
thorn, and the sweat of the prophet
Mohammed dropping upon it formed
1t into q rose. - Brooklyn Eagle.

stagnation of Educational Methods.

Tradition consecrates, legislation
Celebrates, the large vested interests
of school supplies tie down, politics
entangles, and sometimes endow-
ment isolates. So that it is not
strange that reforms are very rare,
hard, slow and often prove in the
end far more superficial than was
thought Wars and revolutions that
overturn states and reconstruct soci-
ETY. often leave education unchanged
in method and matter Save in Japan,
educational history records no com
plete reconstruction.
Finishing" courses have left the
worlds great questions closed instead
of open by inoculating against deep
er love of knowledge with an atten-
tuated culture, so that when the cur
riculum is completed there is an al
most Faustlilze sense of finality and
omniscience. Very few indeed real
ize how not only worthless, but steril-
ling to mind and harmful to both
body and morals, educational systems
always tend to become before any
one knows it. C Stanley Hall in

into the three categories of first quail.
ity, second quality and ''fillet" They
fell dead of debility and leanness on
their way to the slaughter houses. 1t

English Dances.

The early appearance of dawn in
England marks striking difference
between London dances and those
given in America. It is true that in
Philadelphia daylight often comes
before the ball is over, but it is to-
ward the end, and the darkened win
dows shut utevery glimmer of day.
In London, on the contrary, the dawn
is at $50, and instead of keeping it
out it is welcomed and the windows
are opened wide. frequently the CO.
tillon is begun in broad daylight.
And thus those fair dancers whose
faces no longer wear q natural bloom
retire before the sun, and some men
complain that it's merciless illumina-
ton of their dress suits makes them
look like walters. But the pretty
girls are said to look prettier than
ever, and no dance is really brilliant
" gay until the sun shines on it.

Bret Harte's First Story.

was the editor" says Bret Harte,
''San Francisco would have none Of
it. A month later, however, by re-
turn of mail from Boston there came
an important letter. 1t was from
Fields & Osgood, the publishers, and
addressed to me as editor. 1t re-
quested me to hand the inclosed note
to the author of The Luck of Roar
ing Camp The note was their offer
to publish anything he chose to write
upon his own terms. This became
known, and it turned the tide of crit
icism. Since Boston Endorsed the
story, San francisco was properly
proud of it. Thenceforth I had my
own way without interruption"
