A SAVAGE CANARY.


One Of the Very Latest Of wild stov,es
About Well Known Animals.
SO many stories have been told recently
Of battles between tigers and snakes,
Wildcats and elephants, eagles and ALI.
gators and Goldfish and wild hogs that
the following accurate description Of an
encounter between u tomcat and n ca
rary bird cannot fail to be interesting:
The tomcat and the canary were the
property of an animal dealer on the west
aide who has long had reputation for
veracity. The canary was noted for its
fierceness. 1t is female bird about
8years old with bright yellow feather
ing. The tomcat is quite white, with
four legs, and weighs-or rather weighed
about 10 pounds.
During the morning IL was noticed
that the canary seemed unusually saw
age. She paced up and down her cage
In great rage, gnashing her teeth and
glaring at the poor cat, toward whom it
turned out she had developed a fierce an
tipathy.
The keeper secured the door Of the
cage. as he thought, firmly, but during
q paroxysm OF temper the canary
smashed the fastening and was free.
What a moment The unfortunate
tomcat gave cry Of terror and looked
around for some means of escape. but
there was none, the door Of the room in
which the carnivorous animals were kept
being locked.
The proprietor Of the menagerie could
do nothing. Spellbound he watched the
uneven contest, fearing all the time that
the fury Of the canary bird would be eA-
pended on himself.
With q piteous moan the wretched
tomcat felt the talons Of the canary bird
sink into his head. He raised himself
and tried to fight her off, bat the bird
parried his every blow and fiercely
pecked at his eyes.
Once the cat seized the bird in his
paw, but she got away from him in a
moment with the loss of only one feather.
She returned to the charge and rendered
one of the cats eyes blind with her sharp
bill.
The fight had lasted five minutes, and
the cat had all the worst Of it. He was
p"h.hhBt ahu oNoIy HOW anu tflen rOlleu
over exhausted, pttering pitiful cries.
Though he was valued at $10O, the keeper
of the menagerie, who was armed with
sword and shotgun, did not dare to
interfere to save him. The blood of the
canary was up. and she meant to slay the
cat.
1t was not long before the awful work
was accomplished. The bird by an adroit
movement common to canaries when in
conflict with quadrupeds rendered the
poor Thomas cat quite blind. Then, at
her leisure, with series of fierce jabs,
she penetrated his brain. and he rolled
over completely dead.
The boss was trembling for his own
safety, but it now seemed that the saw.
age instincts of the canary had been sa-
tisfed, for with a jaunty air she eregained
her cage and began to warble song Of
victory.
1t meant life or death to shut the door.
but the brave boss crept courageously
up to the cage and succeeded in accom-
plishing this feat. Then he ran out into
the street and tainted. The nerve pres.
sure had been too great for him.-New

CRUSHER

the following advantages:
THE CRUSHER will cut the cane
transversely in pieces about 3 inches
long and extract about 30 per cent. of
the juice andldeliver the crushed cane in
a uniform layer to the roller mill.
thereby causing a perfect feed and in-

THE CRUSHER will leave the "skin"

better chance to be expelled than if the
cane was ripped open subjecting the
pulp to the hard packing on the retnrner
bar of the roller mill.
THE CRUSIIER will save labor in
handling of the cane, as an irregular

MISSION WORK IN JAPAN.
Progress Made In Spreading the Faith
Over There.

O"''
The Rt. Rev. John McKim,
Bishop Of Japan, in Chicago, re-
Gently preached in Grace Episcopal
Church and in Trinity Church.
Bishop McKim was sent to Japan
from the Chicago diocese in 1880
Speaking Of his work, he said:
ut is our aim to develop a self
supporting japanese church, and
our efforts are being rewarded.
Seven years ago there was a
boom in our work. Everything
that was western was grasped by
the better class of the natives. Then
there came a reaction. and every
thing that was foreign became un-
popular.
In that year or two, however,
all the missions in Japan were par
ticularly successful The war has
given an additional impulse to the
Christian missions N Japan. There
are six native Christian ministers,
who received commissions from the
Government as chaplains in the
army, and Shinto priests, asking
the same privilege, were refused.
The japanese Minister of War gave
permission to every missionary to
visit the garisons and preach aud
distribute tracts. This we believe
to be the result of the impression
made by the Christian soldiers in
the Japanese army.
THE Roman Catholic mission
aries are the strongest and most in
fuential in that field, and the Rus
sian Greek church has great
strength also.
THE Methodists and Episcopa-
lians are about equally strong. The
Presbyterians in six different bodies
have about an equal number Of
converts to their credit. The
American Episcopal mission has
twenty-six schools for the educa-
ton Of poor children, six industrial
schools, four orphan schools, two
large boarding schools for boys,
two for girls and two institutions
for the education of japanese wo-
men of the higher classes. We
have also two hospitals and four
dispensaries, with 1000 Christians
connected with the missions,
which are operated from three
centers, Toxic, Osaka and Kioto."
Bishop McKim's diocese is 700
miles long and 200 miles wide,
with population of 5000, 900.
One hundred thousand Of these,
he says, are converts.

KEKAHA PLANTATION, March %, 1895.
Messrs. Honolulu Iron Works Co., DEAR
SIRs: We have been working the Krajewski
Crusher since the beginning of October 1894,
without DELAY and with the most satisfactory
results from the start. our daily work has
Increased from % CHARTERS TO ~ clariiiers 100
gallonsl with the same number of laborers as
we used before. Since we are using the Crusher
the extraction has increased considerably and
the trash leaves the roller mill drier than
formerly and make excellent fuel. BY adding
the Crusher we apprehended that our steam.
ing capacity might be insufficient, but we find
that the Crusher and the three roller mill to
gether consume less power than did the roll
er mill before alone. The extraction OF the
Crusher amounts TO 30 per cent. of the Juice
and the roller mill receives steady and
regular feed, thereby decreasing the risk OF
breaking the roller shafts.
We can recommend the KreJewski Cane
Crusher as a valuable addition to a mill which
will pay for itself in short time.-We remain
yours truly,
For Kekaha Sugar Co..

ton, also on vellum, and larger and even
more magnificent than the first, was issued

most magnificent printed book that has
ever been produced. For the splentior and

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, April 30.-A
proposition of compromise and imne-
date evacuation of Corinto by the
British is now under consideration be-
tween Washington, London and the
authorities here. The proposition en-
braces the following essential points:
First-Nicaragua is to pay ST.. 500 at
London within two weeks.
Second-The British forces are to be
Immediately withdrawn from Corinto
without waiting for the two weeks to
elapse.
Third-A mixed commission of arbi-
tration is to pass on the demands of
Great Britain'S excess of the SIT, 500
claim, such commission to be consti-
tuted in a manner satisfactory to the
United States and Nicaragua. The
foregoing terms, it is believed, will be
accepted by President Zelaya and lis
cabinet. 1t is understood the sugges-
ton of settlement came from the
Nicaraguan representative at Wash

FARM PRODUCTS.
Higher Prices for Wheat Started-Catt1e
Decreasing and Hogs Increasing.

Higher Prices for Wheat Started-Cattle
Decreasing and Hogs Increasing.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April 30.-The rise
in prices of wheat continues to be the
most notable feature of the business
situation Chicago prices went up
cents last week. There is very little
doubt that a worldwide movement to-
ward substantially higher prices has
started. The higher prices have re-
suited in considerable increase in the
sales of wheat by farmers and country
elevator men. Even drained out KahS
sas has managed to scrape some wheat
together and ship it to market At
the five principal western markets the
weeks receipts were 20 per cent larg-
er than a year ago.
The strength and excitement in the
wheat market have caused only a frac-
tional advance in corn. The demand
for cash corn continues very small.
The east is getting no corn at all from
west of the Mississippi river. That is
situation which never existed before
without causing very high prices. If
it is permanent reduction in demand
what will be done with 1000, 600, 600
bushel crop this year should one be
raised, when a ], 200, 600, 900 bushel crop
cannot be marketed at anything better
than moderate prices?
Supplies of cattle last week at west
ern markets were somewhat less than
the week before and only about two
thirds the supply of year ago. The
depression in the market which fol-
lowed the recent big advances has
passed away and prices appear to have
started up again. A further falling
off in the receipts is expected this
week.
| While the cattle supply goes on de-
creasing hogs are growing little
more plentiful. Last weeks western
receipts were less than 10 per cent. be-
low those of a year ago. The specula-
tive provisions market has not been af-
fected in the least degree by the ex-
element in the wheat market. That
is a most unusual occurrence. Prices
are just where they were a week ago.

After the services in the church the

and hundreds signed it:

godly and irreproachab1e young
Christians in America. It is unparal-

should consign its author to everlast-

it emanated be degraded, unfrocked
and deposed from the high position
