Girl No. / heard of the existence of
Girl No 2 and Immediately became cool
toward the unfortunate young man. The
swain in question was most anxious to be
restored to the good graces of his best girl,
but all his advances met with frigid re-
ception. For several days he was in de-
spair thoroughly convinced that there was
no balm in Gilcad. Finally he hit upon
a brilliant scheme. Inditing letter to
Girl No 9, in which he requested her to
cease annoying him with her unwelcome
attentions, he placed it in an envelope and
carefully addressed it to Girl No. ]. The
next day he sent her telegram saying
that he had made mistake in placing
two letters in their envelopes, and that
she had probably received letter not in
tended for her. Would she please return

The scheme worked like charm. The

CHANGED ITS TUNE.

The New York Herala which, of
late years, has been noted for getting
on the losing side of political causes
and afterwards recognizing the in
evitable, has Topped on the Hawa-
iian question as was expected. A
few months ago nothing would do
the Heraid but restoration of the
monarchy in Hawaii, pure and
simple. The missionaries and
resident Americans were to be
severely punished up to the Royalist
formula and the demand was made
and reiterated that civilization in
Hawaii be Internationally rebuked
in the interests of the semi-savage
regime.
A change has come over the
views of the Heraid, however, since
President Cleveland endorsed the
action Of the Senate in the Ha-
waiian matter, and the establish
ment of the Republic has completed
its conversion with a single reser-
walton. In its issue of July 23d

it the full hand of fellowship and

CONVERSATION AND TALK.
An Art In Which Great Scholars Are Not
Usually Proficient.


Usually Proficient.
Conversation is rs much of an art as it
is an accomplishment. 1t has been noted
that in America we have plenty of takers,
but few conversationists. To converse
well intelligence, backed up with a fair
knowledge of men and things, is the first
requisite. Our greatest scholars arc far
from being our best conversatiouists.
Neither are they, Ms rule, good public
speakers.
The most noted English conversations
list was the celebrated DIR. johnson, of
whom Macaulay, the English historian,
said, THE influence exercised by his con
vcrsation was altogether without a par
allel" As DR.. johnson was a man of
eminent learning, our readers may think
we have been too fast in saying that great
scholars are not often good conversations
lists.
johnson is said to have made n sharp
distinction between talk and conversation,
and when speaking of AN evening spent in
society he once remarked, There was
plenty of talk, but no conversation" He
was one of class of great literary men,
like Addison and Steele, who seem to have
gone out of existence with the last CEN
tury. In these days men of genius drift
into certain narrow channels. They con
centrate their thoughts on some special
object and make that the study of life,
time.
The result of applying all ones mental
powers to one hobby has its advantages,
for the subject treated is eXhaustivcly
studied, every phase of it becomes under
stood, and many new and often valuable
| discoveries are brought to light and use
| When we say that our greatest men are moi
| good conversationists, we mean, therefore,
the great men of the present century, al
most all of whom are bound up in some
| special work, and we except journalists OF
! ability, from the fact that it is their duty

THE La Leo complains this
morning that Procrastination is the
thief who is putting the faithful in
a financial hole. Of course it is
alleged that Procrastination has
been aided by 1.-The Caucasian in
vaders," who have purposely, and
with malice aforethought, taught
the natives not to pay their bills.
The Ra Leo admits the theory of
the survival of the fittest applies to
the case, but wants to know what
will become of those who are fight
ing for the lost fight OF restoration in
the meantime. How would it do
for them to go to work and earn
their living, as the supporters OF
the Republic have done whether in

hopes the birth of the Republic
will prove the final doom of the

The HeraiH wishes the Republic
may Give long and prosper as an
independent government OF the
people, by the people and for the
people of Hawaii and it is quite
likely that if the Democratic adj
ministration decides to again bring
up the annexation treaty, before

PETER THE GREAT.

History Shows That the Old Ruler of RUS
sia Was Monster.
Years ago, when a low standard of NOR
ais prevailed, the cpithct great was be-
slowed upon any monarch who won bat
ties and enlarged the territory and re-
sources of his kingdom. 1t mattcred little
then to the historian what might be q
kings private character, provided he made
his nation formidable Ivy its brute strength
and full treasury. Even If he was a bal
man, they culugizcd him as "a good ruler.
Peter ] of Russia is called Peter the
Great" because he Transformed IA harba-
rous into scmibarbarous nation. But no
one can now read the following summary
of his character without a feeling of dis.
gust. Voltairc, in his Philosophical Die
tionary,n says that Peter was half here
and half tiger. Macaulay declares that
'to the end of his life he lived in his pal;
ace like hog in a sty, and when he was
entertained by other suvereigns never
failed to leave unequivocal proof that \
savage had been there"
Peter, when the fit was on him, literally
cancd evcrybody-from his cook to his
counselor from the mcanest peasant tC
the highest noble-sparing neither age
nor sex He would get up from the table
and fog the host who was entertaining
him. He would stand at the door of The
senate house and llog each senator thai
went in. Lefort was an intimate ant
trusted friend, yet on slight provocation hi
was knocked down and brutally kicked by
his imperial master But all this tiogginl
was in the way of recreation. When Pete
meant business, it was "A more serious
