WHEELING.
The Boys Got a Move On.

The road races between the
local bicyclists and their visitors
Messrs Griffiths and Terrill was
thoroughly enjoyed by all Homo
lulu. The road was not as good as
could have been expected but the
boys did their best. Grifiths and
Terrill were Handicapped and if
they had put on full steam
they would have walked away
with our local champions.
As it was Angus came home
ahead of his competitors.
Griffiths made the 10 miles in
&c minutes 30 seconds, a time
well worth recording when the
heavy road is taken into consid-
Grafton.
Angus time was 2s:3O and
when the road some day gets in a
better condition he will do a
great deal better.
Jack" Atkinson ought to have
won the race. Re was simply
immense and proved that regular
daily runs to Kapiolani Park are
far better training than sponta-
neous "spurts'' ION King Street.
A dog came in the way Of Jack
and he was thrown from his ma
chine. In spite of his heavy fall
he finished his race and the large
audience was unanimous in ap-
plauding his pluck as well as his
skill. Jack" will be champ
ion yet.
The races to be held next
Thursday at Kapiolani Park will
be highly interesting. In that
race there will be no funny bust
ness and no dogs. 1t will be a
run for blood. 1t is highly
encouraging to see our boys tax
fng up the most fashionable sport
of the fas de steele and devote so
much energy and time to it. 1t
is healthy and manly sport but
the boys ought to stop hump

the race.

Not Hopeless

When Mr.. Henry Castle left
the editorial chair in the AdUer-
tiser and handed his seat to ex-
attorney general Armstrong, he
probably thought that everything
connected with his paper-he
owns the Adreytiser-would 60 on
smoothly and as long as the
paper was supported by the gov
eminent and by the compact it
did not matter much how dull
or slow or even indiscreet his
successor might be.
Mr.. Castle is not a "strug
Cling newspaper man. He is
wealthy and he can afford to 90
into journalism con am0re.
He made a mistake though
when he selected a comparatively
stranger like Mr.. Armstrong tor
his editor.
The gentleman may be good
writer. He may have an mex
haustible fund of humor graded
according to almanach stories)
and he may be willing to write
one or two columns a day (and
draw his salary.) But he has
never been able to awake sym
pathy in the reading part of the
community. He has injured the
cause.of the government which he
is supposed to defend and he has
if we may use a common phrase
made ANAL round exhibition"
of himself.
In this mornings issue of the
Advertiser we find prospects of
an improvement in our L. c.
Three times has he made bad
break, as far as his party is con-
cerned and it is now to be hoped
that he will enter the field of
honest journalism and call black,
black and white white.
He told the sugar planters that
they would import freaks from
a dime museum as laborers if
they would work cheap.
he gave" the government
away on the Wetmore racket.
And to day he tells the mode
rate drinker that his chances for
long life is far superior than
the chances of the total abstainer
and he quotes the British Medi-
cal Association as his authority.
The planters kicked at the
editor, the government scowled at
him, and we are willing to bet
him a bottle of saki that the W.
G. L. u. and the rest of the
alphabetic societies will interview
him with prayers-and clubs.
His attitude demands our re-
spect and if he doesn't weaken
we promise that In the future we
shall call him full tiedged man
and never more an old woman.

Cathedral on Saturday was
most decided success. The
weather put on a decent face, and
although it was cloudy and mud
dy. a large number of people
visited the grounds and the treas
urer states that they left good
amount OF money-besides mud.
The usual booths were there, and
the ordinary appendices CON-
mon to all fairs were working.
Handsome ladies and rather pref
ty girls. used the usual means of
seducing the innocent visitor to
depart with his small change,
and as a rule they succeeded
The dangerous flower girls dis :
posed easily of their leis and
bouquets, and if they had had
more flowers they would all have
gone. The eatables at the luau
and lunch tables met with gen
erous patronage, and weights
have gone up considerably. The
bands played in the most approx
ed style and everybody was hap
py. This morning the remaining
goods we're disposed of by the
ladies having charge of the fair.
The fair will net nearly 50, 900,
a splendid result under present
circumstances.
The absence of Dole and COM

Intelligence in Driving the Horse.

Horses differ in intelligence almost
as much as men do. Some have a
degree of intelligence and suscepti-
bility to educate that appears to be al
most human, while others are born
idiots and can never learn anything,
but nearly all have the faculty of
memory largely developed. 1t is a
real source of pleasure to manage and
handle horse that is endowed with
good horse sense, but the idiotic brute
IS an abomination, no matter how
faultless he may be in his general
conformation.
1t was the writer's good fortune to
have as family driving horse during
the past season a stylish, large, spir-
tied, grade Percheron gelding, full II
hands high, with fine head and neck
that possessed this individual quality
of intelligence to degree that at
times was surprising. He had never
had any special training, but he very
soon appeared to understand every
thing that was said to him, and SEEM
ed to take real pleasure in being talked
to, and in return it was not long before
the writer thought that he could un.
derstand the language tnat the horse
used, and certainly it was not difficult
for him to make all his various wants
known. In very short time we I'M
derstood each other 30 thoroughly
that there was never any need to
touch the halter, the bride or the
lines to put him in any position do
sired from the time we were ready to
put the harness on him until we got
in the vehicle. He seemed to know
perfectly when to 60 and what was
necessary to be done on his part in
order to facilitate the operation of har'
Messing and hitching up; and he did
it all so cheerfully and so promptly as
| to always convey the impression that
he really enjoyed it, He was by nc
| means courageous horse-on
the contrary he was decidedly
timid; but the sound of our voice
always treasured him, unless the
voice itself betrayed excitement, in
which case his own fear would at
once be greatly augmented. With q
nervous, timid, excitable driver, he
was by no means safe, reliable fam
| lily horse. He seemed TO intuitively
understand the drivers fears and al
ways partook of his nervousness
while, on the other hand, he was
quite as susceptible to the Influence Of
| calm confidence.
Horses all possess these qualities to
a greater or less degree. and good
horseman-one who really loves a
horse-will quickly learn the pecu'
liarities of such as he may be re-
quired TO handle. A man who can
not would better content himself with
a plegmatic, stolid brute that will be
impervious to all surroundings. 1t is
too bad to have really good, safe
horse spoiled by being compelled ia
associate with bad, unsafe man

SECRETARY HEsrER's REPORT.
Review Of the Cotton Movement Throughout
the South,

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 12-Secretary
Hester's Weekly New Orleans Cotton
Exchange statement issued some time
before the close of business today
shows an excess in the movement of
cotton into sight of 29,543 bales, or
over "a per cent more than for the
seven days ending Jan. 10, 1893, and a
deficit of 1885 or 3S per cent for. the
same seven days of 1892. For the first
IL days of January up to today inclu
sive, the movement has been So, S53
ahead of the same 10 days in January
last year and OIL, ITO behind the same
time year before last. This brings the
excess in movement for the 1874 days OF
the season, from Sept. to Jan. 10, in.
elusive, to 715, $50 bales over the same
1874 days last season, nd.increases the
deficiency compared with the same 1874
days of 1892, to 1,119,204.
Total amount brought into sight
during the past seven days mas been

and 244,273 year before, while the ag-
gregates for the first twelve days of
January are 319, O26 against 232, 173 and
400, 796 bales. Total marketed from
September to date. 5,537679 against

year and year before respectively.
From this time on last year the
amount of cotton brought into sight
was 1,677,737 bales and year before
last 2.179, 497. In other words, after

on lands in which the condition ex-
lists that causes root rot in cotton
where most fruits and vines die, can
be turned into profitable account by
planting Japan persimmons on the
native persimmon roots and nut bear

How TO SELECT.-Select such Yari.
cites as have proven a success in your
immediate vicinity, and fight shy OF
such as fail to yield satisfactory re-
suits. Consult your neighbor who
has made success of fruit growing,
or your nearest reliable nurseryman
who can help you in the selection, or
do as the writer has often done, ex-
pertinent till you find fruits suited to
your location. Propagate from your
own stock or buy direct from reliable
nurserymen.
The TREE AGENr,-Having got rid
of their last years sales, the tree agent
will now be abroad in the land, when
perhaps not single owner of home
but what will be called on by from one
to dozen of these ubiquitous gentry
In the past the writer having wit
messed so much of their devious ways
and dishonest methods has been de-
nounciug the whole business of the
tree vender as an unmitigated sys
tenn of fraud and eXtertiOn and al
evil. But so many of our people are
SO used to and welded to the credit
business that many give orders Il
these agents in the winter or spring
to be paid for in autumn, who woult
not have bought for cash, and in thit
way many fruit trees have beer
planted, and while not the best, poo
fruit is better than none. This is tht
only redeeming phase OF the frui
agency business.
THEIR METHODs.-They come with
highly colored plates, manufactured
in Paris or New York, with names tt
suit printed by rubber hand stamp
and order book, and by the most
egregious falsehoods and persistent
importantly, secure orders at prices
far above what the stock could bt
from nearly every home owner, anC
when the trees are delivered, paiC
for, and planted, and after years o
care and waiting, when coming into
bearing, the honest purchaser finds
that he has been swindled. They
usually come on horseback and APP

horse and buggy, with the usual bool

An Unseen Enemy

Is more to be dreaded than an open

lurking foe, which under the generic
name of malaria manifest itself, when
it clutches us in its tenacious grasp, in
the various forms Of chills aud fever,
bilious remitient, dumb ague or ague
cake, can only be effectualIy guarded
against by fortifying the system
against its insidious attacks with Hos

event of q malarious attack, avoid

The Mild Winter.

"The Lord tempers the wind to the
shorn lamb" Texas stockmen have
cause to lay this proverb from the
great book to their hearts this win
ter. With their fields shurn of crops
by the summer drouths, and being
shorn of the years profits to get to
the verge of winter, truly the future
looked dark for them with their cribs
empty and no grass nor water. But
with one cold snap in November win.
ter left us and with occasional warm
rains and sunny days grass has been
growing slowly but steadily until at
the present time in protected ranges
new grass is keeping stock in living
condition, aud in some places they
are gaining in flesh and strength.
Last Saturday night the clouds
lowered and stockmen thought
their time had come.
A warm rain fell most of the night
and in the morning, instead of the ex-
pected norther, Old Sol went on his
regular duty and beamed down with
sultry rays, making the tender grass
start up and continue it's growth. The
rain, while not heavy, did immense
good to the soil that is being turned
over and will enable farmers on hard
ground to keep the plGws moving.
Sunday plucked from a protected
sunny bank bunch Of new grass
that measured inches. IN punches
of sedge grass found sufficient green
grass to digest all the old grass an
animal would necessarily take in get
ting the green stuff. While horses
have had the best of it thus far, [ no.
tice that weeds are coming in suffi
Gent quantity to digest the dry brous-
ing cattle muat necessarily eat for
subsistence. While it is not best to
crow too early, yet all things con-
sidered, it looks like our stock will
come through the winter much better
than the most sanguine could hope for
two months ago.

Line the Road With Trees

The matter of shaded roads is one
upon which the movement for road
improvement and for forestry preser-
walton may work together. The ends
of the latter, or at least part of them,
would certainly be subserved by the
planting of trees along mile after mile
of country roads. 1t would add con-
siderable amount to the forest area OF
a state, and would thus affect the rain
fall to some degree. The added beauty
and comfort of highways is an item
of no mean importance, and is worth
considering in a new country, while
the added expense, once the system OF
road making and mended is establish
ed, would be comparatively small. Ir
the prairie states, especially, the plan
is eminently desirable, and should be-
adopted whenever the work for roaC
improvement gets hold.
