Bonnets continue to be as small as they
can be and still be visible to the naked
eye. Tiny jet coronets surround the mass
of hair gathered on the summit Of the

strings, and these are bonnets. There are

Great Britain, Germany and the United
States were represented, and an act was
signed guaranteeing the neutrality Of the
islands, in which the citizens of the three
signatory powers have equal rights Of resi-
dence, trade'and personal protection. The
independence of the Samoan government
is recognized as well as the full right of
the natives to elect their king and choose
their own form Of government. A SUI
preme court was established, consisting Of
one judge styled the chief Justice, and to
him are referred all suits concerning real

In which foreigners and natives are stimuli

The state campaign i'll Georgia, which is

Clement A. Evans and w. Y. Atkinson,

at least half a dozen prominent aspirants

UNCLE SAM IN SAMOA.
A STATEMENT OF HIS INTERESTS IN
THE SOUTH SEAS.

Commercial and Strategic Importance of
the Islands-Our Harbor of Pago Pago
Described as the Finest of All P%olynesian
Ports-A Lazy Mans Paradise.
The regularly recurrent discussions of
the relations between the United States
and Samoa will have one beneficial educa-
tional effect, whatever the final result Of
those discussions may be. People will be
moved to learn all they can about the
group of islands included in the little
South sea kingdom and about their pro-
auctions and the people who inhabit
them. They will learn much that is in
teresting concerning these picturesque is
lands. One of the facts which will most
interest the lazy reader, if there be such a
one, Is that these islands compose an earth
~ paradise where a person can live with
out work. The natives say there is no
necessity for work, for an old man can
gather enough cocoanut and %breadfruit in
q few hours to keep him alive for weeks.
h will probably seem q doubtful bless
Ing to those apostles of progress who be-
lieve that work is the chief end of exist
ence, and when they get the upper hand in
Samoa, as they have nearly everywhere else,
the erstwhile care free and happy Samoans
will be constrained to toll and MOL from
morn till night for the privilege of wear
ing patent leather shoes, reading Ruskin
and educating" their children in the
superf1uities Of an effete civilization.
Meanwhile these children of nature re-
spectfully refuse to ovcrexert themselves
for things that they don't want.

THE WHITE BABooN. mfr quently con-
descends to treat with distiA guished con-
sideration certain notable representatives
Of the animal kingdom chat NAV be
brought to his insular attention. The lat
est and most popular London hero of this
sort is q white baboon just imported from
the Transvaal.
This animal is a representative of O spe-
cies extremely are-so rare indeed that
not only is this tho only specimen in cap
tivity, but it's existence has been regarded
as chimerical. It was captured two years
ago from it's mother, when quite a baby,
byia party Of Trek Beers in the Murchisas
Range district of Johannesburg. Since
that time the baby has developed into a
full grown balloon Of nearly 4 feet in
height. During the voyage from the cape
it suffered terribly from seasickness, but
has now quito recovered it's health and &c
tivity. The fur is perfectly white and very
long. In spite Of it's mature age milk is
still it's favorite food.
Balloons are very numerous in South
Africa and give the Boer farmers q great
deal Of trouble by their mischievous depre-
dations. They visit the plantations in
largo bodies and carry off vegetables and
fruits to their retreats in tho mountains.
They are strict vegetarians ahd live on the
fruits of these marauding expeditions, but
they also seem to take great delight in
wantonly destroying things they have no
use for. As they are very strong and Zero
cioust the farmers fear to follow them to
their retreats, and they are too cute to get
caught when they venture abroad. They
never travel singly and always post senti-
nels to guard against surprise when rob-
bling the farms. Hunters who nave shot
them say their death agonies are exactly
like those of human beings, and their cries
of distress are pitiful in the extreme.
Balloons are not easily tanned, but it can
be done If they are captured in infancy.
They are great imitators and may be
taught many amusing tricks. They are
also very mischievous and are liable to
destroy anything they can lay their paws
on if suffered to go at large. AS these
animals are very susceptible to cold and
seldom live long when remov ed from their
native tropical climate, London is not
likely to long enjoy the antics of it's
unique white baboon. M

West end of London there are plenty of
vapid. brainless, heartless, overdressed-
in-the-afternoon and underdressed-i n-the-
evening little animals, that there being
no other name at present for, we have to
call women. They are vicious, selfish and
idle. They sell themselves for money
and then do not carry out the terms OF
the bargain. They marry. but they are
never wives. They are blood-suckers on
the unfortunate men who have been asses
enough to undertake the responsibility OF
feeding and clothing them. They Will
ruin them in their business and worry
them into early graves rather than go
without an extra new dress. They have
children, but they are not mothers; they
have not even the instincts of the better
class brutes. Self-indulgent and stupid,
they drift through life, everlastingly
whining and posturing, bore to them
selves and a curse to everyone VINO
knows them. They cry that they are mis-
understood, which would be the most
charitable thing that could happen to
them, and they talk about their soul with
as much assurance as if they really pos
sessed one They take all they can get,
they do nothing for it, and they are
never satisfied. But I should be sorry to
take them as types of their sex. and to
talk about them as the new women.

Potato Plantation Which Produces 1885,
900 Bushels Yearly.
A potato plantation of 700 acres, on
which two crops, aggregating $4,000
barrels, or 125,OOO bushels, are annually
grown, is difficult to imagine. Such a one
exists, however, and it's virgin soil is so
rich that abundant crops are raised with
out the use of any fertilizer. This great
potato farm is in Ashwood, Maury coun-
ty. Tenn. about six miles west of Column
bia and fifteen miles from Nashville.
1t is a part of the old Polk estate. owned
by the ancestors of President Polk. Col.
William Polk, originally of North Caro-
lima, Il revolutionary officer. took up So,
600 acres of government land in 1877,
and gave each of his sons 1000 acres.
Among the sons was the Rev. Leonidas

was killed at the battle of Pine Mount

with the intention of ultimately using it
all for raising potatoes.
s. s. Clawson, senior partner of the

seen recently by a reporter, who gathered
much interesting information from him.
When Mr.. ClaWson and partner acquired
their 1000 acres of land it was in a state
of complete neglect and densely over
grown with shrubbery and tangled briars.
The native whites laughed at the young
Hoosiers," and predicted their complete
failure. The partners set resolutely to
work. however, cleared the land and cult
waited it as fast as possible. The first
crop of the year is from $4,000 to 10000
barrels. and the second crop. for which
only 500 acres are planted, from 10000
to $4,000, making a total Of about $4,000

negroes, many of whom are women. and

slightly annoyed as the young man ap-
peared oblivious to her presence. Once
or twice she coughed to attract his at
tention, without effect. The car went on
for blocks and the young man held the
seat. At Huron street an old colored
woman entered the car and stood along
side of the pretty young woman. At once
the young man jumped up, and with a

conner his seat. The pretty young woman
looked angry enough to cry.

tinction men love best is the distinction
which. instead of making a man distin-
guished, merely singles out as already
being so distinguished that no reason
needs to be given for distinguishing him
further. The Garter practically says:
Here is the man whom everyone will
agree to think distinguished. The Gar
ter receives distinction from him, rather
than gives distinction to him.
And that is precisely the kind of testi-
mony which men coyet most. What they
desire to think of themselves is that they
do not need that any external reason
should be assigned for the honor in which
they are held: that that honor is, indeed,
inevitable, and is a natural consequence
of their being what they are. Merit
is something earned by effort and labor.
But what people love most is distinction
which is quite independent of effort and
labor, which is imbedded in their nature,
like genius or manner or breeding. To
be well bred is not at a mans own COM
mand.-The Spectator.
