be able to detect the slightest oscillation.
but there was none atall-the column, all
wounded as it was, stood immovable Five
minutes passed, five minutes of excited
hope to me, for, from the braveness OF the
resistance, it almost seemed as If the de-
stroyers would not be able to succeed.
At last shiver ran down my back.
had become conscious after particularly
savage jerk on the ropes, that the line be-
tween the chimney and the statue was no
longer exactly straight. Slowly-very
slowly-the statue swerved past the CHM
ney. Slowly the great column bowed to-
ward me-never' did any one receive so SUI
perb salutation; slowly it descended, SO
slowly that it almost seemed to hesitate.
In great haze of squirting dust it fell.
There was scarcely any noise, and no
tremor of the air or ground, but the 20
feet of fagots were fattened down to
nothing, and the dust rose thick, like fog.
With wild rush and frantic shouts the
people dashed past the sentries into the
Place Vendome, leaped upon the dislocat-
ed fragments and howled insults at them.

HAWAII AND PATRIOTISM.

Especial to the New Yrk Tribune
Washington, March 3.-Representar
tive Boutelle has received more letters
on the American flag 4duing the last two
months than all the rest of the states
men in Congress togethet. These numer-
GUS communications are IF infinite vari-
ETY. in compositions, but of remarkable
sameneSs in sentiment Ihey represent
neither party nor partisan polltlcs, and
al from Democrats and Republicans IN
sections-N orth, Souh, East, west
! ig cities and towns, ruhl villages and
wayback districts. Audit may be added
all come by way of Hafall II print
ed as a collection of Vigorous opinions.
Mr.. Boutelle's letters w,uld be quite as
voluminous and considerably more en-
PERTAINING than the exhaustive report on
Presidents late Hawaiian policy by the
committee on foreign citations in the
Senate Unlike the fnalers Of this re-
port, however, who disayree to the end
of making it pleasant fo everybody con-
cerned, the writers of tIB letters are in
perfect accord, and all lit the same nail
on the head.
The valentine season was suggestive,
and besides bushel mre or less of let
ters pure and simple, there were no END
of valentines. 1t is doubtful if the Presi-
dent himself was SC patriotically re-
membered by St. Valentine as the mem
Der from Maine, who BELIEVING the Pine
Tree State equal to an! other in most
things, nevertheless almits that the
Presidents state was ahead in yalen-
tines. The following is pretty fair
sample of New York valentine literature
inspired by the s'haulet down Ameri-
can flag in Hawaii. The style is unique,
but would be difficult to adapt to the
commonplace newspaper column, there
fore must be left to the readers imagi-
nation Though witter on square of
note, it was not written on the square,
but was very much on the bias:

Features of the Hosiery Trade.

Germany makes more stockings than
any other country in the world. England
makes the best, and France makes the
prettiest. The English goods are very SUI
perior in texture, particularly cotton and
Isle thread; for wear there is nothing bet
ter than fine English cotton. English
stockings have no seam in the leg, but
two in the foot the sole being inlaid. The
French goods have one seam, the stock
ings being woven in one piece and then
sewed up. French stockings are always
small enough in size to be glove fitting.
The Germans use the French model, but
their sizes run large. The ankles are wide
and the calves full. They are essentially
a stocking for big women. The right size

wrinkles, and the German always wrin-

Biddeford, March 14.-Mayor Staples
has called meeting of the board of al

liquor agency. The object of the mayor
is to head off similar action by the in
coming administration. The Republican
party is pledged to abolish the agency.
The Democratic bosses evidently intend
to have the agency all cleaned out and
the records destroyed before Inaugural

Said He Belonged in Bangor.

Portsmouth, N. H., March 13.-Last
night Officers Lynch and Foote arrested
stranger who gave the name of Anto-
Mo Berry and who claims to belong in
Bangor. He came to this city last Friday
and went to the White Heart Hotel for
lodging. He exhibited a number of pen
sion papers and said he should get pen
sion money on Monday. That day he
showed Mrs. George Lane, the proprie-
tress, a check on the Rockingham Ma
tlonal bank of this city, made payable to
bearer for $4S, and she loaned him $40,
taking the check for security.
He went away, and not returning up to
last night, the affair was reported to the
police, and later he was discovered at
the Eagle house on State street, kept by
Isaac Henderson. Here it was learned
that he had secured $40 on another
check for $48 drawn on the First Ma
tional bank of this city. In both cases

be what is called cat-rig-one large sail
containing over ITO yards of canvas. She
will be the largest pleasure boat of this

extra pains are being taken to capture

were used in order to annoy the newly

its height and the noise was fastest
and most furious a gun In the hands of
one Of the party exploded. Pieces flew
20 feet IN every direction and one
struck Frank Henderson, a boy Of IA,

knocked out, his upper lip was cut

well frightened though no one else wal
