Made Too Much Noise.

A duck quacked too loudly and A. J. I'm

One of the ducks became rather loud in
her remarks. as if trying to bulldoze the

of privilege.

stepped up to Mr.. Immel and told him ne

For keeping those poor. dear birds

"You ale mistaken" the poulterer re-
piled. "They are neither poor nor dear
They are killing fat, and 1 sell them cheap

NO." snapped the lady. "But want

1t appears that two OF his children were
sent home from the Haight School, not be-
ing allie to produce a satisfactory certif-
cate Of vaccination. Mr.. Henderson went
before the School Directors and made an
appeal for the return OF his children to
their accustomed seats in the school. He
made a gOud fight, showing authority for
the stand he had taken, but his effort,
made no impression upon the board, owing
10 the fact that they were acting under the
State law and proposed TO enforce 1t to the
letter. 1t is claimed that Oakland, Berke-

addressed the President as follows. at the
conference at the White House yesterday,
referred to In yesterdays Star:
Mr. President: We are here the repre-
sentatives of the Negro Democratic League
to tender you our sincere thanks for the
bold and manly stand you have taken in
our interest. You are the first President
of these United States to offer an appoint
rnent to Afro-American to represent
this government to a white republic. We
commend and highly appreciate the honor
you have kindly conferred upon the negro
democrats. We trust that you will adhere
to the policy that you have outlined. The
negroes of this nation have long since rec
ognized you as its greatest and staunchest
friend. Your generous acts and the inter-
est that you manifested during your former
administration were worthy OF the admira-
ton Of any race.
I'VE beg of you, Mr.. President, to. give
the negro democracy at least two or three
places of substantial recognition. BY so
doing you will both broaden and encourage
the cause of negro democracy.
MI. President, 1t is our earnest request
that you will give US a negro as recorder
of deeds of the District Of Columbia"

he had in no manner changed his policy

THE HAWAIIAN QUESTION.
Mr.. Rayner Thinks 1t Will Come I'm
When the Tariff Bill is Passed.

What will be done when the tariff bill Is
out of the House is a question already en-
gaging the attention Of the managers. A
member of the committee on rules today said
he believed the first thing the House would
take up would be the Hawaiian question.
I think the bill to coin the seigniorage of
the silver in the treasury vaults will be
compelled to wait until the discussion over
the Hawaiian affair has been exhausted.
That will require more than the two DAYS
which it was originally intended should be
devoted to it,
Representative Rayner of Maryland, who
is one of the democratic members of the
foreign affairs committee, and who has
given much thought to the Hawaiian COM
plication. said today:
II think this matter win he takan nm 90
soon as the tariff debate is closed. The
whole subject has been submitted to Con-
gress by the President, and it is absolutely
necessary to consider it.
ASIDE from the questions relating to the
conduct of Mr.. Stevens and the stiI broad
er question of annexation the practical
question which We will have to deal with
is as to our future course in connection
with the provisional government, or what
ever other government may succeed IL
Evidently our relations with the islands
so far as the Department of State is con-
cerned, must be determined The recosni-
tion of de facto government is all right
ana proper so long as the de facto gov
err ment continues. But we must decide
upon some settled line of policy in refer
ence to the whole question that is involved
In this controversy. We could not abandon
the matter II we tried, because Congress
must take some action. some proceeding,
which will be recognized as final, not only
by our own people. but by the government
of Hawaii as WELL"
This was all that Mr.. Rayner cared to
say, inasmuch as the subject win soon be
before the House, and he is expected to
speak upon 1t from his committee 1t is
we'll known, however, that the line of ar
gunent that Mr.. Rayner and other demo-
cratic members of the committee will take
will be that great wrong was committed
in the overthrow of the monarchy; that Mr..
Stevens was one of the moving spirits in
the conspiracy: that he was guilty of vio-
lating his duty as a minister and all usage
of international law in heading the move
ment to overthrow the government to
which he was accredited The further
ground will be taken that the restoration
Of the queen is utterly impracticable: that
even admitting the provisional government
was brought into existence through the
efforts of the United States minister that
government must be recognized as de facto
and that Congress will treat with 1t until
1t may be superseded by such other form
of government as may be determined upon
by the wishes and suffrages of the people.

ARTISTIC DESIGNS
OF the Medals and Diplomas Awarded
at the Worlds Fair.

VI the MedaIS ana diplomas Awarded
at the Worlds Fair.
There is no immediate prospect of the
distribution of the medals and diplomas
awarded at the Columbian exposition. The
diplomas will not be ready for delivery for
three months. and it will be a month later
before the medals are finished. They will
both be of great artistic beauty. and will
be highly priced by their recipients for
reasons Independent of their commercial
value. The design for the medal is the
work of st Gaudens of New York. One
side is historical and the other embIemati-
cal. The historical side represents Column

perspective in the design. that quality
having been cut off by the broad folds of
the flag of Spain. which is borne by the
sailor directly behind Columbus. The other
figures stand out against the emblem. The
mcst daring innovation, however, is to be
found on the emblematic side of the medal.
Rejecting all precedents, st. Gaudens has
represented America as a splendid specimen
of lusty young manhood Leaning easily

in his right hand three wreaths. In the

people of classic lands. notable feature
of the medal will be the stamping of the
name of the recipient in such fashion that
each medal will be complete as If it
were the only one struck.
The design for the diploma has been pre-
pared by Win H. Low. to whom America
appears in the guise of lovely female. to
whom the youth Fame is furnishing a

said 1t was necessary to utilize and develop
the industries now existing in order to pro-
vide for the time when we should have a
population of 25O,OOOOOO people. He then
drifted into the wheat question. He ac-
counted for the fall in the price of wheat
by stating that we had but two customers

abroad there was a smaller demand in this
country. He was interrupted frequently by

Mr.. Outhwaite (Ohio) accounted for the
fall In wages by stating the proposition
that where there are two men seeking
one job wages will go down; and when
there are two jobs seeking one man wages
will go up" That free trade did not oper-
ate to lower wages was shown by the fact
that wages in England had steadily in
creased since the adoption of the free trade
policy. and that wages in free trade Eng
land were twice high as in protected
Germany. He laid particular stress upon
the fact that the democratic party had
been pledged to free wool since 1885.
In reply to question as to why they
had not put a revenue tax on wool, Mr.
