Larry Dee Takes the Only Stats
Carriage to Frisco.

Larry Dee was one of the passen-
gers by the brig w. g. Irwin to the
Coast yesterday. He seemed very
much elated over the fact that he
was leaving the city. Mr.. Dee said
he was taking to the States the
only state carriage that had ever
been brought to this country. The
others, bought at auction by gentle
men in the city, were declared by
him to be simply carriages not
dignified by the word estate"
Mr.. Dee carried in his hand a
large roll of papers, which he
guarded very carefully. One of
these was a landing certificate
from the custom house dated June
IS, 1879, bearing the words " King
Kalakaua." "One wagonette car
rage" Mr.. Dee was very proud of
the paper, as he said it proved
beyond doubt he had the only
state carriage ever used on the
islands. He will try to sell the
vehicle in the States.

TO TRAVELLERS.
An unsupported Cause Of Sea-
Sickness.

When so many people are tray
cling about on the water, it may be
interesting to note the various opin-
ions expressed as to the causes of
sea-sickness. In order that from
the many accounts one may de-
termine, perchance, what remedy
is most likely to prove available.
1t is suggested by a physician who
has made the subject one of special
study that the effect of the light,
the water, and the motion on the
eyes may account for many cases
of sea-sickness. Patients whose
eyes habitually trouble them are
said to suffer most severely, and
various affections of the optic nerve
seem to accompany some of the
worst sea-sick cases. 1t has been
said that persons who are about to
go on the water should provide
themselves with dark spectacles,
and wear them for a little while !;
also, that they carefully avoid look
ing at the water until they are &C.
customed to the motion of the
ship. Some people entirely avoid
sea-sickness by what they call
getting the rhythm of the vessel.
Imaginative people fancy that
ship has a keynote and moves in a
strictly regular time. To find this
and put the mind in direct action
with it will, it is claimed, not only
prevent sickness, but will furnish
the most delightful and novel set
of sensations. One veteran trav-
eler always selects some song with
a positive accent. This he gets in
his mind and either huns it very
softly or mentally keeps the time
and tone until entirely accustomed
to his surroundings. Of course,
there are persons who become ill in
tramcars, and sometimes by rapid
riding in carriage. A sick head
ache is a not infrequent sequence of
long drives or very rapid horseback
riding. These people have a con-
stitutional weakness that is not to
be overcome by any ordinary
means. The accent and keynote
idea, however, is not only interest
ing but suggestive, and it would be
well worth the attention of those
who suffer from this unfortunate
malady to make some experiments
at the first opportunity.-Family

HAWAIIAN RELIEF SOCIETY.
Efficient Work Performed Snug
Balance on Hand.

The Hawaiian Relief Society
will close it's doors on Saturday,
provided there are no more cases of
cholera in the meantime. The
ladies who have undertaken the
work and carried it to such a sue
cessful termination will be glad to
have an opportunity for rest after
cessation of the epidemic.
Those who have taken pains
to look into the work of the society
and examine the methods which
have been employed, will certainly
give the ladies due credit for what
they have done in the interests of
the needy Hawaiians. As soon as
it was demonstrated the dread
disease of cholera was attacking
the Hawaiian more than any other
nationality, the society was started.
Ladies gave up their household du-
ties and hurried to lend assistance
to the cause. Contributions flowed
in, showing the sanction of Homo
lulu people to the work proposed.
Every one seemed to feel the need
of immediate action. On the first
day the natives were fed without
regard to what persons came to the
doors for food. Undoubtedly,
there were many who imposed
upon the society, but this was soon
stopped by the excellent system of
inspection instituted soon after.
Persons on the outside, totally un-
acquainted with methods of the
society, made rash assertions re-
garding the undertaking. Many
said that the society was using the
money subscribed without reference
to persons for whom it was intend
ed. The ladies said nothing when
these unjust accusations were
spoken against them. They con-
tinued the work, all the while per-
fecting the system, until now it is
in perfect working order.
At the present time about $4,000
remains in the treasury. By Sat-
urday, the time set for closing the
doors of the society, there will re-
main about $4,000. This will be
kept on hand for natives who are
in great need and have absolutely
no way of obtaining food. The
ladies will inquire into their cases
and act accordingly. The Hawai-
ian Relief Society will remain
permanent organization, ready at
the first call to continue the work
begun and which all Honolulu has
learned to appreciate.

Business For the Year Closed With Dull
 and ListIess Speculation.

Business For the Year Closed With Dull
 and ListIess Speculation.
 New York, Dec. S1.-Business for 1894 closed at the stock exchange with a dull and listless speculation. Of the total transactions St. Paul figured for $500 shares. Reading for $500 and American Sugar for $500. The most important change in prices was a rally of 1 points in Baltimore and Ohio, to 621A, due to the effort on the part of a short interest to cover The rise was assisted by semi-officiaI statements that the company had the money on hand to meet it's January interest, and that there was no truth in recent rumors that the road had a cumbersome float ing debt
 Reading was somewhat of a feature on reports that the Earle-O Olcott plan would be abandoned and the securities dropped 4 to IFS per cent. Subsequent ly there was a slight rally. After busi- ness hours it was announced that the committee had not received the support of sufficient junior securities to make the plan effective. The committee has instructed the trustee of the general mortgage to begin foreclosure, but be- fore legal steps are taken 1t will pre- sent a revised plan of reorganization.
 The grangers were rather heavy, the November statement of the Burlington and Quincy having been unfavorable. Houses with bearish connections sold St. Paul on a fairly liberal scale. The industrials were firmer especially for Cordage and Chicago Gas. These is- sues moved up F to 1 per cent An at tempt was made to make capital out of the visit of certain prominent bank CTS to Washington on Saturday, but the movement quickly subsided when one of the gentlemen in question stated positively that his visit had been in connection with private matters and not about the late bond syndicate, as rumored.
 The withdrawal of $SO0,0OO gold from the sub-treasury had no influence It is believed that at least $1, ,500, 900 gold will be forwarded to Europe on Thurs day.

Rcminiscenoes of Dr. Holmes.

pr. Oliver Wendell Holmes did his ut most to adopt a sprightly manner. and let no opportunity for jest escape him. These would be received with quiet appreciation by the lower benches, and with uproarious demonstrations from the 'mountain," where as in the French Assembly of the Revolution, the noisiest spirits congregated. He gave his imagination full play in compari- sons often charming and always quaint. None but Holmes could have compared the microscopical coiled tube of a sweat gland to a fairy's intestine. Medical readers will appreciate the aptness of likening the mesentery to the shirt ruffles of preceding generation, which from a short line of attachment expand ed into yards of complicated folds. He has compared the flores connecting the two symmetrical halves of the brain to the band uniting the Siamese twins. His lectures frequently contained aids to memory which seemed perhaps child ish to the more advanced. I can al- most hear him say, speaking of the acromion process of the shoulder-blade,  [" Now says the student, how shall l remember that hard word2' Let him think of the Metropolis, the highest building in Athens, and remember that the acromion is the highest point of the shoulder"
 His reaction from the horrors of old fashioned New England Calvinism had pretty thoroughly swept away all be- lief in revealed religion. He may have seemed to go with the current near to materialism, but, in truth, his clear mind saw that there were facts, at all events in the moral and intellectual spheres, which that soulless doctrine cannot account for. So brilliant writ CT as Dr. Holmes must occasionally deal in paradox. I doubt If he meant, for instance, that remark which has shocked many, namely, that early piety is another name for scrofula, should be taken au pied de la ettre.-Thomas Dwight, M. D., in Seribners.

man. I have told the men at the life saving station to telephone for me when anything of that kind happens. ] can get out to the beach in an hour and would gladly do it to save a life. can swim through breakers that lifeboat could not get through and would think nothing of 1t. If there were an expert swimmer in every life-saving crew 1t is easy to see that he would be of great use in just such cases"
 The officials of the life-saving service do not agree with pr. Riehl.
 They say the service is the best on earth, and that it is organized to pro- tect commerce and not to give circus performances. This refers to Dr. Riehls exhibitions of surf swimming They also say that the cannons and life-lines are effective in getting lines to an abandoned ship ninety-nine times in hundred. They admit that 1t is not easy to get line to a capsized skiff, and are not sure that it would do any good if it was. They also admit that lifeboats are not sent out when breakers are too high, They declare that there are breakers at the Golden Gate station so enormously powerful that men enough could not be crowded into a lifeboat to pull 1t against them. The boats are sent out when it is possi- ble that they can get through the breakers. Moreover, at the life-saving station at the Presidio there is a boat which can be launched in any storm. owing to it's location, and which can go through the gate whenever tug can get out.
 The officials laugh at Dr. Riehl's statement that he can go through breakers a lifeboat cannot ride, and in timate that the statement is preposter- ous on it's face. Dr, Riehl, on the other hand. says he will prove the truth of his assertions the first time there is a storm to make the breakers big enough.

Away and away scared the startled grouse with a noise like thun- der. The sound from the ridge came nearer and nearer and clearer than a bugle.
 It was the music of hounds in full chase, and it was coming straight tow ard the old Burnt Chestnut and me. Now there was life and cheer enough. No longer solitude held sway. But the suspense was painful-the awful ten sion of first experience on a runway, with the deer surely coming.

 But the most prominent eharacteris- tic of the young man was his shiftiness. l in both the good and bad sense of the word. He would perish with mortified tion rather than fail in devising some expedient to meet every emergency; he felt no hesitation in changing his point of view as experience destroyed an idea or an unforeseen chance was to be seized and improved. Moreover, repeated fail ure did not dishearten him. Detesting garrison life, he neglected his duties, and endured punishment, but he se- cured regular promotion; defeated again and again before the citadel of Ajaccio. each time he returned Alndisfnayed to make a fresh trial under new auspices or in new way.
 He was no spendthrift, but he had no scruples about money. He was proud in the headship of his family. and reckless as to how lie should sup port them or should secure their pro- motion. Solitary in his boyhood, he had become in youth a companion and lead CT; but his true friendships were not with his social equals whom he despis- ed, but with the lowly, whom he un- derstood. Finally, he was a citizen of the world, man without a country, his birthright was gone, for Corsica repelled him; France he hated, for she had never adopted him.

The second game between the Wilson
and FL Telegrafos was the best game
of amateur baseball ever seen at Athletic
Park. For seven innings the Wilson's held
the Telegrafos down without a run, but
in the eighth inning with Horton on first,
Swan hit for two bases, scoring Horton,
and the only run that the Telegrafos got.
The Wilson's played a fine fielding game.
and gave Moore the best support that any
pitcher has received this season. Horton
pitched good game for the Telegrafos,
but the batting of the Wilson's was too
much for him to win his game. Whaling,
the catcher for the Francis Wilson's.
played a fine game behind the bat, and if

catcher in Southern California. The main

and Swan for the TeIegrafos. The Will
