While Californis is better adapted
to specialtits in vegetation than any
other state, by reason of her great va
riety of climatic and soil conditions, it
remains true here, as elsewhere, that
the family which produces on its own
acres its supply of vegetables, milk,
butter, eggs, poultry, meat, fruit and
nuts, as well as grass and grain for the
domestic animals, is independent Of
market fluctuations. The fact that
such results are easiest attained in an
arid region under irrigation was first
set before the American public by Hor-
ace Greeley when the Tribune proposed
the Greeley colony for Colorado. That
was an experiment, but its successful
results and all that has been learned
during these years in the arts of agri-
culture, horticulture and irrigation are
now common property, and at the COM
mand of the most inexperienced.
. The furry which was excited by the
Judge Ross decision adverse to the
Wright irrigation law is passing away,
and the hope is generally expressed
that the United States supreme court,
where the case is soon to be heard, will
rule against the Wright law. The
bondholders will be protected where
value has been received, and other and
fairer ways will be worked out than are
provided under that law. In fact, only
q comparatively small portion Of the
irrigation of this state was begun under
the Wright law, and capitalists were
from the first dizinclined to invest in
those securities.-N. y. Tribune.

The interest in the prospect well has

dreds of men were at the well yester
day eagerly watching the debris which
was washed from the trough at the
East side of the well.
The high board fences prevented the
spectators from seeing the works, but
they were satisfied TO see the great
walking beam in motion. Whenever
person came through the gate he was
besieged on all sides to see what was
brought up the last time. The drill

THE PUBLIC PULSE.

AS has been previously remark
ed, Thine is a great healer. ="
People who two weeks ago wanted
to have rebel insurgents immersed
indefinitely in boiling oil, now
gravely submit that they should
be severely punished"
The cases are in the hands OF
courts which command respect and
enjoy general confidence. These
tribunals know what their sup
porters think and what they desire.
But there was one time a smart
man who said to his grown up son:
my boy, you may know what
you want, but you don't know
what's good for YOU"
The public pulse is an erratic
engine. 1t seldom has what the
mechinist calls governor. This
is a regulator. Nothing in the way
of power is complete without it.
The public pulse moves by fits and
starts. In affairs of the character
at hand it some days wants blood
and some days wants shade from
the pinions of white winged peace.
Looking into the future is hard
trade to master. Men capable at
the calling usually occupy positions
of authority. The question now
is, whether the days to come hold
for Hawaii more biennial revolu-
tons or an uninterrupted period Of
TRANQUILITY.

MIRROR SUPERSTITlONS.


Indefnable Fears That Are Associated With
the Smooth, Shining Glass.
A writer in the Contributors club In
The Atlantic speaks of certain supersti-
tions in "A Note on Mirrors"
Heinrich Heine, who had q particularly
nice and discriminating taste in ghosts,
and who studied with such delicate pleas
ure the darlily woven fancies of German
superstition, frankly admitted that to see
his own face by moonlight in a mirror
thrilled him with indeflnable horror
Most of us who are blessed, or burdened,
with imaginations have shared at moments
In the curious fear of that smooth, shining
sheet OF glass, which seems to hold within
itself some power mysterious and malign.
by daytime it is commonplace enough
and lends itself with facile ease to the
cheerful and homely nature of its sur
roundings. But at dusk, at night by
lamplight or under the white insinuating
moonbeains the mirror assumes distinct
i've and uncanny character of its own
Then 1t Is that 1t reflects that which we
shrink from seeing. Then it is that our
own eyes meet us with an unnatural stare
and piercing intelligence, as If another
soul We're watching us from their depths
with furtivc, startled inquiry. Then it is
that the invisible something in the room,
from which the merciful dizziness of NOR
tality has hitherto saved us, may at any
instant take sudden shape and be seen,
not in its own form, but reflected in the
treachcrous glass, which, like the treach-
erous water, has the power Of betraying
things that the air, mans friendly ele-
ment, refuses to reveal.
This wise mistrust Of the ghostly mirror
Is SO old ana SO far spread that we meet
with it in the folklore of every land. An
English tradition warns us that the new
moon, which brings us such good fortune
when We look at it in the calm evening
sky, carries message OF evil TO those who
see 1t first reflected in a looking glass. For
such unlucly mortals the lunar virus dis
tills slow poison and corroding care. The
child who Is suffered To see his own image
in mirror before he Is a year old is mark
cd out for trouble and many disappoint-
ments. The friends who glance at their
reflections standing side by side are doom
ed to quick dissension. The Swedish girl
who looks into her glass by candle light
risks the loss of her lover. A universal
superstition, which has found its way even
TO our own prosaio time and country, for
bids bride to see herself in mirror after
her toilet Is completed. If she DO discreet,
she turns away from that fair picture
which pleases her SO well, and then draws
ON her gloves or has some tiny ribbon,
flower or jewel fastened to her gown, that
the sour fates may be appeased and evil
averted from her threshold

FORLORN FOREIGNERS.

The foreigners of the Islands
have been forced by circumstances
into a somewhat peculiar position
1t is always the rule that an alien,
to insure local protection from his
home Government must avoid
entaneling alliances. How Amer
leans or Britishers could do that i'll
this instance is more than any one
can figure out, They saw the
legitimate and only power OF the
country assailed aud their own
lives and business interests threat

Yankees and the Britishers did the
only thing that Anglo-SaNons
would think of doing They rose
up and whipped the rebels out o.
their boots. There was no time &c
think of or discuss the possibility
of international complications. Il
is well enough to suggest that those
who injured foreigners would have
been attended to i'll due time
That's beautiful theory, but it:
no good in practice. Great Britain
record on this line is good. w
doubt very much if recourse It

1t is particularly of American
that THE STAR speaks in this con

The Australian Blacks.

1t has been my good fortune to see Mt diff
ferent times representatives of all races the
world over. Before going to Australia in
1892 | was much interested in the aborig-
ines of that island continent, whom from
my reading | was led to regard as the low
est savages in the world, and / am forced
to confess that my actual experience among
them has confirmed this belief Still in
some respects the instincts of these people
seem superior to the reasoning powers of
the whites, who look down on them with
lordly contempt. Let me illustrates:
One day when riding in the Queensland
bush | came upon party of native black
fellows out hunting honey. Curious to
know how their methods of search differed
from those of our own North American In
dams, decided to stay near them and OBJ
serve.
| noticed that they were ceaselessly dodg
ing about in quest of bees, After short
time one of them discovered bee sucking
flower close by. He at once approached
the insect, and taking from pouch carried
suspended from his waist belt, which, by
the way, was his only article of clothing,
small portion of swansdown, which had
been touched with gum, he dropped it
adroitly on the bees back.
In an instant the bee felt that something
was wrong and tried to work off the down
with his hind legs which of course he was
unable to do
With an angry drone the bee left the
flower and started for home, as is ever the
case when these insects are alarmed.
Now could see why the honey hunters
had brought the quinn ed down with them.
The bee rose up in the mir just high enough
to clear the tops Of the surrounding trees,
When at that height, it would have been
difficult if not entirely impossible to fol
low, even with the keencst human vision,
the bee in its flight. Bun here the wonder
full Instinct and remarkable eyesight of the
natives came into play
From the instant the native placed the
down on the bees back he aud his fellows
never lost sight oft, which, As they had to
run like deer in order to keep mp with it,
was no easy matter.
Wishing to see the end OF the hunt
