through my tears
And found hadn't seen them both for more
than fifteen years
Oh. NY pretty. laughing darling, she must be
tall and fairi
How I'd rig her out in ribbons and feathers rich
and rarei
/ could almost feel my fingers upon her soft
white brow;
That little sunny head of hers would touch my
shoulder now.

Is the oIeander Poisonous?

Whether locality has anything to do
with it or not has not yet been definite
" settled, but certain it is that In GER
tain portions of the country the clean
der, so much admired for its exquisite
blossoms, has been the cause of serious
illness, and in some cases death mas
been attributed to too intimate assoc1-
alton with it. Several persons Were at
tackled with exceedingly painful throat
disorders, with headache, giddlness and
violent heart agitation. The dispense
tories class it as a heart poison, and one
of its victims died in the most distress
ing heart commissions. Animals are
affected by it as well as man. A valua-
BILE horse died few moments after
browsing on the stalks and leaves. Sew
eral COWS died from drinking water into
which some cuttings of the plant had
been thrown, and other animals were
very sick from inhaling the smoke from
burning twigs and leaves of this plant.
They were shut in small yard, and
breeze carried the smoke directly to-
ward them. In other localities there
seem to be no serious consequences at
tending the cultivation of this plant.
Whether immediate surroundings or
climatic conditions have anything to do
with the effects of this popular house
plant would furnish an interesting sub
ject for discussion York Ledger.

When Apparently Freezing.

Do not take person severely chilled
or apparently frozen into warm room
to be treated The first thing to do, If
the condition requires it, is to attempt
artificial respiration as in drowning. y
Rub the limbs very gently with snow
or cloths wrung out of cold water until
good circulation is established. Give
stimulants in small quantities at a time
as soon as the patient can swallow.
When fully restored, warm the room
very gradually, cover the patient with
warm blankets and give beef tea or hot
milk. For the treatment of frozen
hands, feet or any portion of the body
the same principles apply. Rub slowly
and very gently with snow or cloths
wrung out of cold water while the
numbness lasts. Then, if the case is Sc

ADMIRAL WALKER
Makes Visit to the Eva Plan
tation Mill.

Mr.. B. F. Dillingham;, Of the |
Oahu Railway Company, took an
excursion party to Eva in spe-
cial car Thursday afternoon.
Among the invited guests were
Admiral Walker, Capt. Barker and
several officers of the Philadelphia,
with several ladies and gentlemen
in all about twenty persons. On
reaching the depot at the "Penin-
sula," the party left the car and
walked to the water front, where
cottages have lately been erected
by Mr.. Waterhouse and others,
where good view of the inner bay
and Ford's Island are obtained.
Returning to the car the train pro-
ceeded on to Eva Mill, which was
found in full blast, showing every
part of the milling operation, from
the cane cutting and hauling to
the working of the huge diffusion
watts.
AS the party stepped down from
the car. and were welcomed by the
manager, Mr.. w. J. Lowrie, a new
and beautiful, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
American flag was run up to the
masthead of a flagstaff 12O feet IN
height, amid the cheers OF the ex,
cursion company and the crowd
which witnessed the flag raising:
IThere. Mr.. Admiral" said one OF
the party, eve have raised our flag
first This flag raising was a very
pretty incident in the excursion.
Proceeding next to the mill, the
party inspected the various pro
cesses of slicing the cane, ming
the different watts, and the heavy
machinery used in making sugar
till it falls from the shutes IN
Golden stream at the rate of fifty or
sixty tons day. -,
Manager Lo"rie then invited the
party to step aboard the observa-
ton car, which carried them
through the large cane fields, ex-
hibiling all the operations
that 90 to make up a first
class sugar plantation, including
some of the heaviest growing cane
to be found on any estate here OF
elsewhere. Returning to the mill,
an inspection of the huge arteslan
pumps and machinery was had.
which alone afford sight seldom
witnessed in any part of the world
Here 100000 gallons OF water
are, in the dry season, daily raised
by the ponderous pumps and dis,
tributed over 1000 or 5000 acres OF
growing cane.
The day was a beautiful one
and everybody enjoyed the excur
sion, and some of the party saw
for the first time a diffusion sugar
factory and how sugar is made II
it. Returning, the train arrived a
the depot shortly after 6 P. M.
1t is stated that Admiral Walke
intends to make further survey
around the entrance to the lagoon
and will probably make severa
more soundings in the channe
