SENATOR M'PHERsoN's HEALTH.
Said to BE in New York Consulting
Eminent Physians.

Eminent Physians.
The Washington correspondent of the
Trenton True American, this morning, says
that Senator Mcpherson is in New York con-
sulting with physicians about his health.
There was consultation in this city last
week in which three leading physicians par
ticipated, and their verdict was that the
Senator ought to drop all work and spend
several weeks in absolute rest and quiet.
The result of this consultation was not alto
gether satisfactory to the Senator, for he is
anxious to remain as the capital during the
tariff debate, and so he has gone to New
York to consult leading specialists there.
As has previously been stated in these dis
patches, Senator McPherson's trouble is
mainly confined to his bronchial tubes, and,
so far as is now apparent, his lungs are not
affected. There are, however, symptoms
that the disease may attack these vital or
gans if it is not checked, and especially II
the Senator commits any imprudence by ex-
posing himself to rough weather or raw
and chilly climate. His condition is quite
enfeebled and his constitution is by no
means able to withstand the attack of a long
drain upon it.
Although the Senator came to the Capital
last Tuesday, he has not concluded to resume
his Senatorial duties. When he attended the
meeting of the Finance Committee he dis
tinctly stated to his colleagues that he had
not come to take up committee work and
especially he did not want to displace Mr..
Mills, who had given considerable time to the
preparation of the bill 1t looks, therefore,
as if Senator Mcpherson would not be a
factor in the forming of the Tariff bill, des-
pite the appeals which are being made to
him by New York and New Jersey manu-
facturers.
The Senator's appearance last Tuesday oc-
casioned many remarks from the Vice
President and others as to the necessity OF
his taking care of himself. He looks pale
and thin and is certainly not in good
health,

i WOMAN CUT IN TWO ON
THE PENNSY.

A freight train backing down the tracks OF
the Pennsylvania Railroad at Washington
street knocked down and instantly killed
Mrs. Kate Madden of No. 125 Grove
street, about 1:15 o'clock this afternoon.
The body was almost cut in two. Mrs.
Madden was car window washer. She
was at work all the morning cleaning the
windows of some cars near the depot. She
was walking, when killed, with her pail on
the tracks. She had got just above
Washington street, when she saw passen-
ger train coming down the track she was
walking on. She stepped out of the track
and into the next one. Just then freight
train that had been standing on this sec
ond track started to back up. She
grew excited and stepped between the
two tracks just as the engine of the passen-
ger train approached the freight The close
proximity of the engine frightened her, and
she sprang back again to get out OF the
way. She tripped and fell across the
track, directly in front of the freight.
The wheels passed over the middle OF her
body Patrolman Wohleben was on the
spot a few minutes after the accident
happened and took charge of the case.
He sent for the morgue wagon which
arrived in about twenty minutes Mrs.
Madden's son and daughter were notified and
arrived ON the scene before the body
was removed The daughter became
hysterical and her shrieks could
be heard block away. 1t was
all that the son and another man could do to
keep her under control as she struggled vio-
lently and attempted to throw herself upon

appeared on Tuesday last, have not yet re-
ceived any clue as to his whereabouts. Mrs.

every session of the school during the last
term and that he was held back on account

also says that Arthur had considerable
money saved and that he had more than
three dollars with him when he disappeared.

EXPELLED FROM SWITZERLAND.
BIZ Gable to the United Press.

BERNE, Feb. 10, 1s94-TheS Federal Coun-
Gil has ordered that seven Gerna,'s and five
Italian Anarchists, who were concerned in
the recent disturbances at Zurich, be ex-
PEELED from Switzerland. The twelve men
were leaders in the hostile demonstrations
that took place before the italian Consulate
at Zurich on January 30, and took a promi-
nent part in the rioting that followed the
successful attempt of the police to remove
from beside the escutcheon at the Consulate
the rod and black flags affixed there by the
mob The object of the demonstration was
to express sympathy with the revolutionary
movement in Sicily.

PARA SAILS FOR RoNoADoR REEF

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10, 1S94.-The Navy
Department yesterday received cablegram
from Lieutenant Brainard stating that
he had sailed in the morning
from Colon for Roncador Reef on
the City of Para. The message was written
by Lieutenant Brainard before the vessel
sailed, and was probably fitted by
the United States Consular agent
after the Para had gotten
under way. Reported anxiety on account
of alleged delay in the sailing of the relief
ship is therefore regarded by the Navy De-
partment as entirely groundless.

THE BRAZILIAN REVOLUTION.
Minister Mendonca Believes 1t rs
Virtually at an End.

New York, Feb. 10, 1S94-Dr Mendonca,
the Brazilian Minister at Washington, made
a flying visit to this city yesterday. He
spent the evening at Charles R. Flint's
house, denying himself to reporters. Speak.
ing for him Mr.. Flint rehearsed the story OF
the effort Peixoto to have Senior Moraes sue
ceed him as President.
''There is no plotting to assassinate Peix--
oto; but, on the contrary, an unequivoca.i
disposition to support him was manifested" !"
From his commercial advices yesterday,
Mr. Flint inferred that, in the opinion of
merchants in Brazil, the revolution is yir-
tually at an end, He said that nothing fur
nishes a safer indication of political affairs
in South American country than its COM
mercial and financial cables,
DR. Mendonca also discredited the reports
cabled from Buenos Ayres yesterday of rebel
successes in Rio Grande do Sui, his latest ad-
vices being that there is hot rebel now in
that State, the rout of General Tavares last
month having completely disposed of them.
They were then driven over the Uruguayan
frontier, where they scattered.

A Sharp Engagement.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10, 1S94.-Secretary
Herbert has received the following cable
message from Rear Admiral Benham, dated
Rio, yesterday
''T6is morning sharp engagements at Areia
Point resulting in some insurgent success"
A1nia Point is the extreme end of the small
peninsula on which Nictheroy is situated,
across the bay about six miles
east of Rio. 1t is a very desirable
position for an assault on the capital
and is the key to Nictheroy, which is the
principal stronghold of the government
forces. With Nictheroy and Areia
Point in their possession the insurgents
would practically control Rio harbor
and be in position to make a successful
bombardment to the city proper if the for
eign commander would permit. Admiral
Benham's despatch is very indefinite, but it
is understood to mean that while the insur-
gents repulsed the Government forces they
did not capture Areia Point.

gagements teach new '1ties, time
makes ancient government uncouth.
We must upward still and onward who
would keep abreast of truth" Let us
not only treasure these principles in our
hearts but teach them diligently to our
children. 1t was a happy thought
when the American flag was raised
over the American school-house.
Then came the work of providing a
Government from which every vestage
of monarchy should he excluded. The
completeness of that work astonished
even those who wrought it, and chal-
lenges the admiration of philosophers
and statesmen of every nation. The
eloquent characterized ion of M. Glad
stone condenses its merit. "The AmcIi-
can Constitution is the most wonderful
work ever struck off at given time by
the brain and purpose of man"
But the day came when our flag had
to be interpreted and indicated. This
was done amid the turmoil and crash
and pain and ravage of the immense
civil war. The flag was the emblem of
united nation, but certain citizens
claimed that it should be divided. The
flag was the emblem of liberty but
those citizens claimed four and "a half
million of slaves. The flag was the
emblem of national authority, but those
citizens claimed the privilege of State
sovereignty to usurp the place of
national authority.
The flag stood for democracy,
the pupils pledge allegiance every morn
ing as they enter the school. In our
elementary schools eight million child
rem are in actual attendance. Over two
HUNDRED and fifty thousand girls and
boys are in the secondary schools. Sixty
thousand students are in the colleges
and universities and the three hundred
and sixty thousand teachers in the
United States are giving to our principles
millioned tongued proclamation. Here
is power that is to Americanize
future immigration. Let us join with
the eight million voices which are heard
on every school day in America, swell
ing in one chorus from Plymouth Rock
to the Golden Gate, 81 pledge allegiance
to my flag and the republic for which it
stands; one indivisibe with liberty and
justice to ALL"

Hilo has not seen such large number
of people assembled on the Fourth in
several years. Each one seemed to en-
joy the day very much. The cost of the
day was about 800. There were no
grumblers; every one expressed satisfac-
ton and said it was money well spent.
The Hilo Boarding School Band played
the music for the day, and played nicely.
W. II. Lentz, for several years man
ager at the Volcano House, who used to
get up extra eruptions when notified in
advance, is now assistant manager at
Mountain View House, the halfway
house on the Volcano Road, where the
stage stops to change horses and passen-
gers to take lunch.
The Hilo policemen were each pre-
sented with an American badge by the
Sheriff OF Hawaii, which they wore on
tbs 4th OF July at lIilo.
We are all very much delighted to
know that the Inauguration of the new

of the festival deserve special praise
and thanks.
A scripture cantata, composed by
George F. Root, and entitled "Under
the Palms," was finely rendered by the
Hilo boarding school boys last week to
the entire satisfaction of the audience.
The boys had had two months practice
and have an excellent teacher, an Ha-
waiian, who sings, and can play on
several musical instruments well.
The ibretto gotten up in
attractive style and printed
at the school was given out to the audi
ence. 1t contained all the words of the
cantata. This school is very progressive
and should receive great encouragement
from its friends, for it is worthy OF it in
every respect.
