Among the passengers on Brush

man with fresh weed on his hat, and
quite a number of people must have
WHISPERED 10 themselves that he had
lately lost the companion of his joys and
sorrows. Among those who observed
him closely was man of about his own

seat beside him, having evidently been
doing considerable trading. After few
minutes he walked over TO the other and
remarked:

Distinctions With a Difference.

There were knot of men standing on
a street corner. One of them had just
finished relating some experiences OF a
hunting excursion which he had taken
the day previous down the river.
$50 you're a sporting man, are you,
Jack? l never knew that before, really"
said one of his companions.
"No, SIR" said the first speaker. / am
not sporting man; l am a sportsman,
but am neither sporting man nor a
sport"
Indeed. And where, pray, is the
difference?"
"The difference? Why, great Scott,
man, there is as much distinction be-
tween sportsman, sporting man and
sport as there is between doctor, a
cannibal and thiefW The speaker
glared at the others, but the first man
still looked blank.
''Pray define it, then," he said after a
pause
ITO be sure. 1t is something that
everybody ought to know, but unfortu-
nately lots OF folks never take the trouble
to learn those things. n sportsman is a
man who loves sport in its truest sense.
At least l so consider it. He is a man
who enjoys hunting, fishing, camping
out, and is commonly fond of other ath-
letic amuSements in the way of boating,
swimming, riding and the like. He is.
pardon my opinion, apt to be man of
gentlemanly instincts and brains. A
sporting man ls an entirely different sort
of fellow. He is one who takes an in
terest in sports of different sorts, al
though he may not engage in any OF them
at all. He probably plays the races,
drinks hard, takes in all the prize fights
and spends most OF his evenings, when
there is nothing else on hand, playing
cards and whooping things up. But "a
sport is on still lower scale. He is fell
low who thinks he's big potatoes, when
he's really nothing but runt. He need
not know anything about sports or en-
gage in them either. His reputation will
be won chiefly by his loud dress, his
flirtations with the girls, his hanging
round saloons and his general worthless
ness. No. sir; there are good many
persons who are proud to be called sport
ing men or sports, but to call a true
sportsman by such a term is little short
of an insult. Ta Ia Washington Post.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand @cres OF
land in the heart of Tehama County, Tor the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, 10
land of fair average quality, and is offered as
from SO to $40 per acre, in subdivisions OF
30, so, 12O, 100 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
nre especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment OF
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual instalments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipal is to be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual instaIments. with ln-
terest at the rate of z per cent. per annuu,
making payments extending over period OF
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
surcd that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands. suitable for general farming, and cs-
pecially adapted for fruitgrOwing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 TO
800 an acre. An examination of the land
subject Of this advertisement will prove TO
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
on acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms OF
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easy Of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up of a large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diLgent husbandry.

History of the Movement Which Cause
His Resignation.


PHILADELPHIA (Pa.). June 14.-Ex-
Master Workman Powderly has issued
for circulation among the members of the
knights of Labor pamphlet purporting
to give the inside history of the move
ment which compelled his resignation.
He says General Secretary-Treasurer
Hayes. when asked by the Executive

in his office, threatened to accuse the
members falsely of stock-jobbing, and
said: "Once a lie is told it will go, and
will lie whenever / want to score point"
In the last General Assembly, Powderly
says, Hayes admitted there was no truth
in his charges against the Executive
Board, and said: II always wanted 10 get

derly says James Hughes told him that
the National Democratic Committee had
given 50, 900 to defeat him for reelection.

and without any political news

THE news that the Sub-Finance
Committee had recommended the
abrogation of the Reciprocity
Treaty spread an atmosphere of
considerable gloom over business
circles Friday. A recommended
ton of subcommittee, however,
is not yet a law Of the United
States Government, and even if it
were, the case would not be so bad
as some persons suppose. If the
effect of this recommendation
would be to permit the entry of
Hawaiian sugars into the United
States free until one year after
notice of abrogation-say until
May l, 1S95-it would give Hawaii
the benefit of the higher price of
sugar for a part of two crops. If,
however, Hawaiian sugar must pay
q duty in spite of the treaty, on the
principle that law overrides a
treaty, then Hawaii will hope that
the recommendation of the Senate
subcommittee may not meet the
of Congress.

will in all probability result in
transfer of the reins to the Con-

THOSE DISPUTED WAGES.

The table of wages given in this
paper a few days ago, are described
in the report of the statistician

"wages per month, by the year or

monthly wages in California, dur

another place in the report the
"day wages in harvest" without
board, are given as follows: Ohio,
$1.55; Kansas, S1.62; California,
1925. At the present time wages
of all kinds,as well as incomes from
investments, are unsettled not

4 BISHOP INDICATED.

Many Of our readers may not be
aware that there is printed, though
not published, in Honolulu, a little
folio which goes by the name OF
the Diocesan Magazine. This
magazine hardly ever appears
without certain delectable literary
curiosities, which really make it
entertaining reading for those at
least who find an entertainment in
the weaknesses of mankind. The
last issue contained the following 4:
The liberties of Hawaii are still
trsmpled on in the name or liberty.
The climax of iniquity and tyranny
has been reached in the pretence of
taking a vote of the people, who are
only to be permitted to vote in the
chains and letters of cast iron oath.
The United States has by the voice
of its Representatives in Congress
acknowledged that great wrong
was perpetrsted by the .. S. Minis
ter on Jan. II, 1893, by the over
throw of the Queen and Constitution
by the Z. S. forces. The Hawaiian
nation, therefore, continues to wait
with cslmness and patience for the
redress of their wrongs, and the res
toration of their political rights, be-
lieving it to be impossible that the
People will allow the psg-
es of their annals to be sullied with
the record of a crime which has no
parallel in ancient or modern
history.
1t is not with any desire to in
jure Bishop Willis that we publish
the foregoing monstrosity. On the
contrary We desire to give that
worthy clergyman the opportunity
to clear himself from the imputa-
ton Of having written anything
which is compounded with so
much intemperance, bigotry and
folly. 1t is far from certain that
Bishop Willis is the author of
everything which appears in
.he columns of the Do |
cesar Magazine. We believe
indeed, that he is not. And we
,efuse to believe, as indeed every |
charitable person, except upon I'M
testimony, must do,
hat the head of the Anglican
Church in Hawaii has SO far for
gotten the duties of his position
md the obligations of a professor
If the Christian religion as to enter
he political arena in order to de-
anne good men, falsify history and
Uphold heathenism.
At the same time, it is not to be
leuied that Bishop Willis init
nate connection with the Diocesan
Magazine will lead many hasty
PERSONS to hold him guilty of all
IS alterations. For the benefit of
UGH, it might be well for His Lord
hip to file at once a general denial.
n the exalted position which he
couples, it is doubly important to
i've no opening to scandal.
The Bishop will, doubtless, re-
1ember that we are enjoined to
void even the appearance of evil.
