Mr. HILBoRN the California Con-
gressman-elect who expressed while
here recently such warm admira-
ton for the Republic and who fire.
quently declared himself an ardent
annexationist, has been making an
entirely different sort of talk since
his return to the Coast. The con-
clusion must be then that the only
way to be sure of Mr.. Hilborn's
vote and influence is to keep him
here. This Detection will surprise
not little good many people who
met Mr.. Hilborn here. 1t will not
greatly injure the cause of the Gov
eminent, but the fact that Cali
fornia congressman says the Re-
public is going to pieces and that
annexation would be an error is re-
GREETED by those whose views are
thus opposed. Mr.. Hilborn is en-
titled to his opinions, but it is
doubted if he can offer any fresh
argument on annexation. AS to
the Republic, its future seems to
hold as good prospects as are before
any other Republic.

A CAT AND DOG TEASER.

The Scheme of an Orange County Man with
Pail of Milk and an Electric Battery.
eve got great scheme, said an in
genious Orange county man. There no
patent on it either. 1t is just cat and
dog teaser, and it beats anything ever
saw for the purpose. ] got an old stove
zinc and laid it on the ground near the
back door. Then l put u wooden bucket
of milk on the zinc. In the kitchen I've
got battery of two gallon cells and A
inch coil, with a vibrating circuit break
err One wire is connected to the zinc
plate, and the other terminates in piece
of metal in the milk. You just ought to
see the effect. A cat comes along, smells
the milk and goes for it, She just
touches the milk with her whiskers and
looks puzzled when the slight, tingling
shock is felt. Then she returns to the
attack and touches her tongue to the
surface of the milk. Her hair rises then,
and she emits yowl of rage or pain as
she springs away from the pail and then
turns to look back ut it. l have seen the
same cat take two shocks within as
many minutes and then act as if she
wanted to try it again, but didn't dare
to.
with dogs it is different. The dog
steps upon the zinc, lops his long tongue
into the milk and then throws a back
somersault. He wants no more after
that, but tucking his tail between his
legs streaks out of the yard as quickly
as possible. If you want to try it, you
needn't use whole pail Of milk. Just
take crocllery dish, and it will answer
just as we'll Milk is cheap up our way,
you know, and took the first thing that
came handy. New York Sun.

A CABLE at the service of the
islands and secured largely through
the efforts of the country itself
means much more than is hastily
comprehended or briefly expressed.
1t means that Hawaii is closely
connected with the outer world,
the world of commerce, Of
capital, of intelligence. 1t means
an increase of the business of
the Islands to an extent that will
place Hawaii in the column of the
great mercantile and shipping coun'
tries. 1t means that we have here
a live, progressive people, quick tc
appreciate advantages and GRASP
opportunities.

The clergymen of Chicago
refuse to concede that there is
such thing possible as a con-
tingency, where questionable
means might justify a meritori-
Gus end. With a single con
ception they condemn most
vigorously and unreservedly
the announced intention of
Mrs. Leland Stanford to con-
vert into the treasury of the
Palo Alto university the pro
ceeds of 1000, 900 gallons of
brandy from her vineyards.
The proposition is denounced
as iniquitous. Mrs. Stanford
has stipulated that the brandy
shall be absolutely pure and
that it shall go to the drug
trade only. Mrs. Stanford is
a practical business women and
she does not accept the state
ment that the swelling of the
treasury in her own way will
faint the university, muzzle its
professors and students or in
jure the cause of temperance.
The Chicago devines hint that
in one of the universities of
their city no attendant or
member ofthe faculty will ever
have the bad taste to criticise
monopolies of any sort. The
patron of the institution hap
pens to be somewhot of a
monopolist as well as philan-
thropist. Chicago expression
from the clergy or others will
probably not affect the purpose
of the noble women who has
set her heart upon the success
of the Palo Alto university.
She might send to the men
who comment a copy of that
notorious book which estab-
fishes beyond doubt that Chi
cago is an excellent mission
field. Neither California nor
Mrs. Stanford have any qualms
about using brandy money for
educational purposes.

THE condition of the French
navy is causing that country a
good deal of uneasiness. Experts
examining into the question lately
gave it as their opinion that many
of the battle-ships and new cruisers
were unseaworthy and would re-
quire very little in the way of hard
knocks to send them to the bot
tom. The cause, it is said, of this
ruinous disaster is the constant
alterations to which they have been
subjected.

This decision of the supreme court
applies to every paper in the state
which shall do any distinctively state
publishing. 1t does not apply to
county printing, court notices, ETC.,
but it does apply to the publication

A Tough Gang.

A crowd Of buns arrived in the

They filled up on "Old rye" and then
congregated in some empty box cars
near the Rock Island stock yards.
The longer they stayed there the
more boisterOus they became until
finally they plunged into free-fOr-all
fight and made that part Of the city
hideous with their clamOr. Alb ,ut
that time, Miss Carrie Hayes came
along a street within sight of the

gan to make dire and indecent threats
against her. These two buns started

forced them TO keep their places.
The officers were notified and soon
the offending parties were lodged in
jail by Marshal Shaver who turned
them over to the county for punish

Geo. Williams and James Kelley.
0ne of them plead guilty this mora
ing to disturbing the peace, paid his
fine, and they were both released Oh
their promise to get out of the city
at once. The gang has since dispers-

Their action after their arrest was a
good index to their character. As
soon as they had been placed In Jail,
they began to look for trouble. One
of them singled out Jim Talbot and
for awhile they had "a Sulliyan-COr-

pretty severely. Each OF the toughs
