While walking eastwardly from town
on the Lehigh Valley railroad yesterday
a young man of town observed a young
woman walking ahead of him. She car
ried bundle on her arm and acted so
strange that the watcher concluded to
follow. The young woman walked on un-
til she reached a mine breach near Ber-
gan's dam She stopped and seemed
about % throw the bundle into the breach
when she apparently discovered that she
was being followed. The young man
momentarily hid himself and the young
woman again seemed about to throw the
bundle into the breach, but refrained
from doing so when she caught a glimpse
of the follower. A third attempt was not
made to dispose of the bundle The
young woman retraced her steps to town
and was lost to view. The party who re-
lates the incident said the affair appeared
so suspicious that he felt impelled to call
attention to it, believing that it may be
connected with future developments. The
young woman was a stranger to him.

THE HAWAIIAN NAVY,

ported for the occasion. Of this celebra-
ton, one of the principal features of
which was the historical procession, the
poet said:
Tho liquors flowed in rivers deep, from ginger
And all the bummers sat right down to soak
the liquid in.
We'd fights right on the ducal lawn. The
DRINKS lay thick around,
And many were the solid men who slept upon
tho ground.
Probably the greatest and most use
less of the extravagances of the late court
was the purchase of a fruitboat and its
elaborate equipment as man-of-war.

hour and made an excursion to Samoa.

went back into the fruit trade. Here the
poet had a great field for his wit, as the
two following stanzas show:

Another little luxury deemed neces-
sary for modern monarch was a hunt
ing cart. The artist has lost nothing of
the idea, but the utility of the new equip
ment was thus questioned:
Your grace and gents, truly trust and hope

His grace may soon be driving in u brand new

Naturally the people who furnished the
supplies for all the Hawaiian debauch-
cries and extravagances were anxious to
get some money, but money was always
scarce. So persistent did the creditors
become that it was found necessary to
raise a government loan, and this was
accomplished after nearly two years
through money lenders in London and
at cost of 20 per cent, as was discover
ed when the expenses Of floating the

An Interesting Predicnment.

A man who lives in flat near Central
park recently had II peculiar experience.
A couple of deaf mutes rented an apart
ment underneath his own and were
blessed in due season by the arrival of a
bouncing baby with an excellent pair of
lungs. AT night the little one woke up
nearly the entire house by its cries, but
through all of it the parents slept until
the tenant above, at the solicitation of
his wife, went down stairs and fairly
forced an entrance. The deaf and dumb
couple resort to many ingenious devices
to overcome the disadvantages under
which they labor. They are unable to
hear their doorbell, so they have ar
ranged piece of colored paper upon
the gong i'll such way that the paper
futters when the bell rings. BY keep
ing watchful eye on the bell they are
able to receive their visitors promptly,
but their inventive genius has not as yet
devised scheme to indicate the baby's
distress at night.-New York Mail and

ADVICE from a 1x1pg,

Kabarega. the negro king of Unyoro,
in Central Africa, is q man who rules his
subjects with rod of iron. Like all ty-
rants, he regulates their smallest actions,
and host of spies inform him Of any
disobedience to his commands.
Among other things, he has made a
fixed tariff of prices for everything
bought or sold in his country, and every
deviation from it is severely punished.
An instance of this is given by Vita Has
san in his book about Emin Pasha and
the Equatorial Province.
About Il month after Hassan's arrival
in Unyoro he bought fowl and paid 30
cowries for it, while the market price
was only 25. In that part of Africa it
takes about $50 cowries to make ST.
Soon afterward dragoman of the king
appeared and brought back cowries,
with the message:
ga fowl costs only 30 cowries, while
you have given 80. The seller has done
wrong, and the king will punish him,
but he sends toyou the advice to be care
full henceforth in your purchases-never
to give for anything more than it is
worth first of all i'll your own interest,
and next to this i'll order not to disturb
the market. "-Youth's Companion.

The Emperor and the Pirate.

Alexander the Great was about to pass
sentence of death on noted pirate, but
previously asked him, "Why dost thou
trouble the seas?"
why" rejoined the rover boldly,
"dost thou trouble the whole world? I,
with one ship, go in quest of solitary ad-
venture and am therefore called pirate.
Thou, with great army, warrest against
nations and therefore art called en-
peror. Sir, there is no difference be-
twixt us but in the name and means of
doing mischief"
Alexander, so far from being dis
pleased with the freedom of the culprit,
was so impressed with the force of his
appeal that he dismissed him unpun-
ished.-Sala's Journal.

Mrs. Romnev,s Water Coo,er.

The Colorado journalist, Mrs. Rom
ney, has patented, among several other
articles, water cooler which does not
require ice. 1t is covered receptacle,
Of cellular brickware, manufactured of
clay, sawdust and asbestus fiber. In
the process the sawdust is burned out,
leaving the product cellular, or porous.
The receptacle, with the water to be
kept cool within, stands i'll tray of
galvanized iron, which holds water to a
depth of two or three inches. By reason
OF the porosity of the cooler and the force
Of capillary attraction, the water in
the tray constantly rises through the
cellular walls of the receptacle, and is
as constantly evaporated- thereby keep
ing tho water inside as cool as it is usu-
ally drawn from we'll or spring. Den

famous deposed monarch and her reign.
The extravagances and scandals of the
monarchy under her late husband, Kala-

by Hawaiian poets and portrayed by her
artists. A few extracts from the "Grey-
berg Ballads" are just now of particular
interest. KalaSaua and his satellites were
known throughout the world for their
daily debauches, which led to take off

After Queen Victoria had celebrated
her jubilee, it dawned upon King Kala-
kaua that his fiftieth birthday should
also be fittingly celebrated by jubilee,
so that he should not appear to be be-
hind other civilized nations. He was en-
couraged in this idea by his premier and
his court, who scented royal good
time at the public expense. Invitations
were accordingly sent to all the crowned
potentates of the world; but, none ac-
