less children into her home and heart and
gave them mothers love and care For
many years she has been an active spirit in
phianthropic movements, especially the
cause OF temperance. The ennoblement of
humanity was her earnest ann and effort.
With voice and pen and hand she labored to
purify public sentiment and improve social
conditions. Though strong in her conyic-
tions she was never bgot Her mind was
tolerant of the opinions Of others ami ever

WASHINGTON, ID. c., March 25-Ihe
State Department to-day received a report
from Consul Eckford, at Kingston, Jamai-
ca, enclosing copy of the message Oh
the Governor Of the Island to the Le9ls-
lative Council. The Governor says that
"the withdrawal of the Government of the
United States of America from the re-
ciprocal arrangements with this colcny,
entered into in 1891, and the re-imposiiion
of the duty on sugar, leaves us free TO
restore to our tariff some of the sources
of revenue abandoned under that arrange
ment." He also encloses a proposed ta-
riff revision, introduced into the Legisla-
tive Council, which in some instances
increase the duties upon many articles
that are imported exclusively from the
United States, such as hog and beef pro-
dutes, lumber, petroleum, grain, dairy
products7 etc. The increase proposed
ranges from 70 to 100 per cent.

BALTIMORE, March 8.-A desperate
attempt was made to-day by two high
waymen to hold up and rob City Council
man Walter B. Swindell, but, after an ex-
citing struggle, the men were beaten of.
Five shots were fired at Mr. Swtndell,
one of which grazed his temple and went
through his hat, and another cut his
stomach. Mr.. Swindell left his home az
about o'clock this morning. He had
about $2,4 400 in his carriage with which
to pay his employees at his glass works.
When near the corner of Russell and
Worcester streets, one of the highway
men seized the horse, while the other
poked a revolver into Swindel's face
and demanded his money. He pushed the
revolver aside and kicked his assailant
I'm the face The fellow fell to the ground,
and his revolver was discharged. The
second robber sprang toward the car
riage firing his revolver al Swindeif. lie
was treated as was the first highway
man, and Swndell whipped up his horse
and escaped. The shots attracted q
crowd. but before the highwaymen could
be apprehended they leaped into a walt
ing carriage and disappeared.

His Statements Behseting on Minister
Willis is the Main One,

WASHINGTON, March 23.-rhe precise
complaint which was forwarded to the
Hawaiian Government in the GUS
tomary manner through Minister
Willis, upon which Minister Thurstons
recall was requested, stated that he mad
made statements to the press rejecting
upon the American minister at Honolulu,
and intended TO discredit him and inn
pair his usefulness. IL Is claimed that
when confronted by Secretary Gresham
with certain publications of this charac-
ter, Mr.. Thurston acknowledged himself
as the source from which the information
had been derived, and also acknowledged
his mistake in giving the matter pub
licity, and upon this Secretary Gresham
Immediately represented 10 the Hawaiian
Republic that.Mr. Thurston was no longer
welcome in an official capacity in Wash
ington. The complaint that Minister
Thurston published official matters before
communicating them To the State De-
partment was considered of secondary i'm
portance. though the Administration re-
garded IT as strange that he should have
officially confirmed the report that the
schooner Walbergh mad cleared from San
Francisco under contract TO land 1Oo0
stands of arms. of which the Hawaiian
government had captured only 500 This
statement, as printed. carried the impu-
tation that the Administration had per-
mitted arms 10 be shipped surreptitiousiy
TO Hawaii Thurstone publication of the
decisions in twenty-five cases of the in
surrectionists tried by court martial con-
stituted no particular improperly, as
the state Department had already made
public Minister Willis telegram, an
nouEcing that he had been informed of
several death sentences imposed by the
court put which had not yet been APP
proved by President Dole. 1t is said ,hat
the attitude OF Minister Thurston toward
Mrister Willis alone was made the i'm
mediate ground for declaring his official
continuance at Washington no longer de-
sirabie. and upon this representation the
Hawaiian Government was relied upon
TO withdraw him.
