Every one Of them was holding a Niger

Howard Gould, a son of the famous
Spectator and railroad king, is going
into merchandising. 1t will be upon
somewhat extensive scale, to be sure
But the profits are pretty certain to be
less than those garnered by his father
during his career. Young MIR. Gould has
put 500, 900 into firm that will do a gen
eral importing and eXpor ting business at
San Jose de Cucuta, Colombia, and at
New York. The company will also raise
cattle and coffee in Colombia, and take a
turn at building railroads down there if
the opportunity presents itself. II may
be stated, by the way, that Mr. Gould in
person will not go into either store to sell
goods; neither will he punch cows on the
ranches nor cultivate nor harvest crops
on the coffee plantations

Mr.. Gladstone will not come to
America. To reporters for London papers
with whom he talked with regard to the
invitation to visit the United States, to
be extended by Chauncey M. Depew and
other prominent men, Mr. Gladstone said
he had several years ago declined an in
vitation to cross the water for obvious
reasons, the principal one of which was
his advanced age. AS that was a condi-
ton impossible of improvement, such an
undertaking was out of the question.
Americans, generally, will regret that he
cannot come over. Gould he have done
so, the reception accorded the Duke of
Neragua would be as nothing in COMPARE
son with the reception that would have
been accorded him.

Postmaster General Bissell evidently
does,not like women for postmasters. In
refusing to prefer woman candidate the
other day he said there were more com
plants against the women-of whom
there are 1000 holding postofices-than
there were against the men. Inasmuch
as Mr.. Bissell is New Yorker, it can be
imagined how much backbone it was
necessary for him to possess to say, at
this iuncture, word against the woman
in public life.

One of the prettiest of the recently
planted trees in johnson square has died
within the last week or two. The cause
of its death, it is supposed, is the drought.
That it was suffering from lack of mois-
ture probably has been apparent for many
days, and yet no one of the men who has
charge of the square took the trouble to
water it, although means for doing. it are
at hand. Does not this incident show the
need of tree conn issionerl There
ought certainly to be some supervision of
the grass and trees. How else are we to

1t seems that the colored youths from
South Carolina and Illinois, referred to in
these columns the other day as being in
the West Point Academy, really did not
get in at all. When they were examined
by the academic board they were reiec-
ted as being mentally deficient So far
from being an improvement upon Fhpper
and Whitaker, they could not reach up to
the standard achieved by those two
torious failures.

The Lexow investigation committee has
given New York new slang expression, or
rather series of expressions. who's your
pantata7" Are you the pantata2" IN
tell the pantata ~ and similar combina-
tons of English and Czech are to be
heard on all sides. It was brought out at
the investigation that the principal police
official who protected the Bohemian
liquor dealers on the east side in their I'M
lawful practices, and charged them
money for it, was referred to by them as
the ''pantata." The word was explained
to be equivalent in English to father-in-
the-law, or protector, and to be commonly
used IN the sense of meaning head man
having general direction and authority.
Had it proved true that the King of
Corea, driven by rebels, had fed to Japan,
war between China and Japan would
almost surely have been the outcome.
China considers Corea as one of her
provinces, and receives from the Corean
government an annual tribute. When
ever rebellion or other serious trouble
arises in Corea China sends 1000 or 5000
soldiers, drilled and commanded by
foreign officers, to whip the opposition to
the Coreau king into submission. China
is very jealous of her territory, and if the
king had fed to Japan instead of the ac-
cepted protector of his country, China
would have set out to bring things back
into their usual channels at once.
Editor Murat Halstead-who, by the
way, is not as good a political seer as he
is writer about things which most peo-
pie have forgotten--has been picking out
presidential tim Der for the two old par
ties. He selects as the most promising
timber on the democratic side Vice Presi-
dent Stevenson, Secretary Gresham,
Senator German and Senator Hill AS
the republicans, he picks out Harrison,
Mckinley, Reed and A Allison. He may be
right about the latter quartette being
the strongest and most popular men in
their party. But there are untold num-
bers of people who will declare that he
missedit three times out of four with the
democrats.

A Surprised Pake.

One day in August of this year a
native "slugged" Chinaman in a
restaurant near the King street
bridge. The Asiatic was whipped
20 a finish, was laid up for several
days and shows a scar on his face
yet. He began a suit for dam
ages, asking for $500. In the Dis
trict Court he was awarded 81. An
appeal was taken and yesterday
in Circuit Court a jury found for
the defendant. Neither Charlie
Achi nor his client could under
stand this. The jury believed,
evidently, that the native had suffi-
cient provocation and that he did
a good job.

A VOTE ON HAWAII.
Turned a Congressional Contest in
the State Of Michigan.

Mr.. Corliss, just elected to Con-
gress from the very important De-
troit, Michigan, district, sends to
friends in Honolulu, an account of
his campaign. He asserts that his
victory was due in large measure
to his position on the Hawaiian
question. The opponent Of Mr..
Corliss was Levi T. Griffin, who
was up for reelection. In a speech
in the House of Representatives
last year Mr.. Griffin had sneered at
the hauling down of the American
flag here az a trifiing incident. He
tried to keep this in the background
during the campaign, but it was
forced on him and was fatal. The
Detroit Tribune had a cartoon of
the flag coming down with Liliuo-
kalani and Cleveland smiling from
a stand and Mr.. Griffin applauding
in the arena.

1t was the ejectment suit of Lau
Chong V. w. F. Allen as guardian
of the Opfergelt minors. The prop

premises that had been occupied
by Mr.. Opfergelt. He left abso-

duced a deed backed by royal pat

had some title to the property.

Poor Old China!

Vanquished at war by the japanese,
and completely distanced by India in
the growth and expectation of tea.
This is apparent in the figures given
with an appendix to the annual re-
port of the Bengal Chamber of Com
merce. About thirty years ago India
sent about 100000 pounds of tea to
London annually, whilst China sent
about 1OO,OO0,OOO. From 1870 to 1850
there was a rapid increase on both
sides, the China raising to 126,000,000
pounds and India to 34,0eO,0OO. Then
China began to lose ground, and in
1890 she sent only 100000 pounds
against 1O2,OOO,OOO from India. In
1892 China sent "a, 900, 900 pounds, and
from June to December, in 1898, only
25,OOO,OOO. But in the same year In
dia sent 113, 100000 pounds. Since the
Ceylon planters have taken to grow
ing tea, China has a new and rapidly
rising competitor. In 1885 Ceylon
sent about 100000 pounds, and last
year nearly $4,000, oo0.-New Zealand

Chief OF Police Crowley was given
an audience yesterday by President
Dole for the statement Of the official
business which brings the chief to
Honolulu. As might we'll be ex-
pected nothing definite was arrived
at, the President stating that San
Francisco's request for the disposition
of her thirteen lepers would receive
the attention of the proper officials in
due time.
Chief Crowley, however, has full
filed his mission of placing the mat
ter before the Government, and aside
from keeping a watchful care OF the
interests of his city will devote the
remaining days of his vacation to re-
euperation, after the long years of
service in caring for the citizens
of the city of the Golden Gate.
Yesterdays interview was tie first
opportunity SIr. Crowley has had of
meeting President Dole. He is very
favorably impressed with the head of
the Republic. president Dole is
very affable, and chief magistrate of
which the Republic might well feel
proud" remarked Mr.. Crowley.
Had these gentlemen gone into
notwithstanding they might have dis
covered bond of sympathy in the
fact that back in the early days their
grand parents titled the rocky soil of
the State OF Maine within a few miles
of each other.
Following the official interview,
Mr.. Crowley made tour of the Gov
eminent building, visiting the heads
of the various departments, and get
ting q very interesting insight into
the conduct of affairs of what he is
pleased to- term a model republic. The
truth is Mr.. Crowley is very pleasantly
surprised in the substantial appear
ance of the Government departments.
In fact, he has n good word for the
country in every feature. Mr.. Crow
ley is now enjoying the first vacation
since he went into Office, twenty-five
years ago. In view of the shifting
condition of municipal politics in the
United States, Mr.. Crowley's term of
Office gives him distinction of which
but four other chiefs of police of his
whole country can boast, and the
beauty of it is that he feels that the
salubrious climate of the islands will
give him new strength to hold down
tue uulIeS vi the pOSlLiOH lOI Il SOOu
number of years to come.
Though MIR. Crowley has been but
few days in the country, he has kept
his eyes open and has many pleas
ant word for the country, its climate
and the people. In the careful edu-
cation of the children he sees growing
strength of the Republic and its bust
ness and political institutions. The
military boys will be glad to
know that he believes the Ma
tional Guard of Hawaii is SUI
Perior to any body of military men
that have ever come under his observ-
alton. This coming from the chief of
o police department whose members
claim, and with good reason too, to be
the best drilled body of men on the
Coast, is compliment worthy of
more than passing attention. Mr..
Crowley has always taken lively in
terest in military affairs and had con-
siderable experience as commander
of military forces previous to his con-
nection with the San Francisco police
department.

During the past week the
Hilo Sugar Company's mill ex-
ceeded any of its former

hours grinding with an output
of 3003 tons. This is fully 10
per cent. more than the best
work of former years.

26 in. by Sd in. and the two
roller mill 80 in. by 60 in. The
first mill doing this amount of
work in an efficient manner
and with great ease, compared
with work on whole cane,
owing to thorough preparation
of the cane by the National
Cane Shredder, recently cree
ted by the Company. And
by it's use the extrac-
ton has been increased from
3 per cent. to 5 per cent. on all
kinds of cane, and III some
cases so per cent. has, been
reached; the average being %
to IS per cent, according to
quality.

"The shredder has been
working day and night for
