The American Lobster.

The loosters found in American waters
are somewhat different from those found
IN Europe, HOHl0TltS -1HleTlc0n1tS HAVING
claws much larger in proportion than
those caught OIL the British and off the
Norway coast There is however. no
difference IN the habits of these crusta-
ceans, nor do they taste differently on the

The American Holsters, like their
European cousins, are migratory. They
come lnshore from deep water from
Marcn 10 May, and they depart in the
autumn IN the same irregular manner.
but they must be gregarious. as they
move III their migrations in solid
phaIanX, the larger Holsters MARCHING in
front, and the little fellows brinpjnG mn
tne rear. They are extremely pugna-
clouS, ana when they do not find othar
Genizens OF the deep to fight with thew
ngnt one another, and in this thew re-
semDIe many OF the races of man. When
attacked py a too powerful foe they dis
play great activity in retreating. and
mucn skill In thrusting their bodies into
holes and crevices in the rocks. The
1oDstef-nshers make traps variously
called creels, pots and traps-bait them
Win garbage and animal refuse. sink
them IN deep water, and mark the SPOT
OF each with some sort of buoy, Tho
traps are provided with holes like those
IN rat-trap, so that lobster having
craWleu In cannot possibly get out. The
traps are hauled into a boat every day or
so, and the catch removed. Till there be
enough to make shipment to mark ct,
the lobsters are put in boxes and kept
alive IN salt water. When shipped they
are put in boxes in layers of damp sea
grass. In this kind of packing they will
keep alive and vigorous for several days.
When alive it is of a beautifully clouded
blush black color. This color changes
to an almost uniform red when the lob-
ster is boiied.-Harper's Weekly.

The hearing in the Gorham murder
case revealed very little that was not
known in a general way before but it
brought out more sharply the circum-

under the two heads That relating to

evidence is what may be called negative,

being there is not excluded by proof

far every inspector but one has been
charged by some witness with receiving
some of the hush money collected by the

Superintendent Byrnes has escaped any

That the ex-Queen of Hawaii and her
sy7npathizers have not abandoned all
hcpe of regaining her throne is shown
By the plot which the Doe government
recently discovered, in time luckily, to
thwart it. That the plot will be the
last that will be concocted is not at all
probable, especially if, as at present, the
United States keeps no war vessels at
tha island, and permits the British,
who nave always been sympathizers with
royalty to intrigue against the ascend
nncy of the American population on the
island. The United States ought to
keep a naval force about the harbor of
Honolulu constantly in order to be pre-
pared for any emergency that may arise,
but unfortunately the sympathy of the
administration is with the Queen, and
though it would not be guilty under ex
istings of aiding her to
regain her throne, it is not likely to
nut any serious obstacles in her way
such as strong naval force would be.
The reception given Admiral Walkers
report is strong evidence that for the adj
ministration to give the government OF
of Hawaii it's moral support is very dis
tasteful to it and its sympathizers.
