A Bon Mot of w. s. Gilbert.

The author dropped into the opera
bax of q parvenue friend one evening
when ''The Magic Flute" was on the
bills. After asking him who wrote the
music, the woman said: Mozart? Mo-
zart? Never heard of him before. He's
immense! Why isn't he here? Why
isn't he doing something else? Why
isn't he composing!' !.
Because he's decomposing, my dear
lady, answered Gilbert.

NOW. 1t is estimated that with the
above mentioned conditions at an
average, timothy, in stacks of ten
feet high and upward, measures about
500 cubic feet to the ton, clear clover
between COO and 700 cubic feet. To
find the cubic feet in n circular stack,
multiply the square of the circumfer-
ence by four one.hundredths (.04 of
tho height. Below is given a set of
rules for computing the number of
cubic yards in a ton of hay in the
field, stack or load, which can be
easily reduced to cubic feet by multi
plying the result in cubic yards
by 81:
l. The number of tons of meadow
hay in the windows is the quotent Of
the produce OF the length, breadth and
height, in yards divided by 25.
2. To fine the number OF tons of hay
in NOW, divide the product of the
length, height and width by Is, if the
stack be well packed. Ii shallow and
the hay recently stacked, divide by
Is, and by any number from 10 to Is,
according to the density of the stack.
In squares or long stacks the number
OF tons is the quotent Of the product
Of the length OF the base, tho width

Enjoyable Musical. Literary and
 Dramatic Entertainment.
 The entertainment of the Lamson College Literary society given last even ing at the opera house attracted large crowd. One of the most enjoyable of the musical features was a mandolin solo by MT. George Flora, an artist of wonderful ability, who drew from the instrument such variety of pleasing and harmonious chords as to fairly de- light the audience.
 The other musicians participating were Mrs. lone Allen, MT. W. E. Deity, Eugene Redewill and W. E. Lambert.
 The May dance was artistically and gracefully performed by sixteen of the society and college girls. In the trial scene from Dickens Pickwick Papers, a score of the college boys kept the house in roar of laughter as judge, jury, ct. torneys and witnesses in the famous scene. The speech of Ralph Sparks as Sergeant Buzzfuzz was we'll delivered and provoked roars of applause. The costumes were extremely ridiculous and the whole farce was intensely amusing

A Singular Adventure.

The pupils of the Polytechnic school in Paris are, like our naval and army cadets at Annapolis and West Point, re- nowned for their learning and disci- pline; but also, like OUT own cadets, oc- casionally they become restive and break bounds. Recently some of the pupils met with a singular adventure. They were sentenced to remain within the school limits for some misdemeanor, and of course were then more eager to get outside. One of their number hit upon the idea of escaping by way of a subterranean trap-door which led into the sewers. The foolish boys eagerly followed their leader, thinking it good joke; but, to their terror, they soon lost their way, and for two days and nights wandered through a labyrinth, without eating, drinking or sleeping. Fortu- nately, at the end of that time, they met some scavengers and were rescued. The school authorities concluded that the truants had been punished enough, and the pupils agreed with them.

have forgotten the names of the most ordinary things about them. as well as those of the articles of food for which they were perishing. Many forgot their own names and those of their comrades. Others showed pronounced symptoms of mental disturbance, and not few became incurably insane. the type of their insanity resembling very closely senile denentia. The cold was probably not alone responsible for these effects, for zero temperature is rather stimulating than paralyzing in it's action upon the well-fed and the healthy. These men were half-starved, poorly clad, worn out with long march ing, many already weakened by dysen- tery and other diseases, and all men, tally depressed, as an army in defeat always is. It needed, therefore, no very unusual degree of cold to produce the psychic effects observed under other circumstances only as a conse- quence of exposure to an extreme low temperature.

ABOUT QUEEN VICTORIA.
Three Stories That Are Interesting Con-
 cerning England's Sovereign.


 corning England's Sovereign. x For many year after her husbands death Queen Victoria would never con sent to be photographed, save in very lugubrious trim, and with the prince consort's bust or portrait well in sight. Much livelier now that she is much old CT, her majesty to-day sits for artists in grand array as well as everyday clothes, and some of her favorite jewels and laces have thus become well known to the public. The severely criticised or naments bedeclzing the sovereign s head and chest on the jub:see coinage may be recognized as studies from actual jewels much beloved by her majesty. Sir Edgar Boehm had a hard time of it first issued, but he was amply compen- sated by eulogidHs falling from royal and imperial lips upon the charming way he had rendered that favorite neck lace, brooca and earrings.
 The queens money from the state is all paid up in advance to the 31st of March next, and so are all the annui- ties that are granted to the prince of Wales and the other members of the royal family and Coutts', the bankers, are the only persons who know how the royal accounts stand. The thirty-six thousand pounds year allowed for the children of the prince of Wales remains at the same amount as it was before the death of the duke of Clarence, and this money will contiaue to be paid till six months after her majesty's demise.
 On each anniversary the annual celebration of the queens wedding the beautiful painting of the marriage of her majesty is brought into the royal dining-room and decorated with white silk rosettes. In this painting the queens mother and the beautiful duch- ess of Sutherland, mistress of the robes, show to great advantage. The curtana also appears near the queens left shoul- der, held at the 'carry" by state officer, (the curtana or curtein is the pointless sword of King Edward the Confessor, considered an emblematic sign of mercy), and in the left hand background of the picture are two large burning tapers on the altar of the Chapel Royal, St. James, which were blown out by the archbishops of Can terbury and York immediately after the ceremony. These candles are still preserved, and wil4 not be lighted again until required for sacred ceremony which, we trust, viii not take place un- til all the young society people of to- day are bald-headed and have to wear wigs.

INTENSE COLD.
Its Effect Upon the Mental Faculties of
 Those Subjected to It.

Its EHect Upon the Mental Faculties or
 Those Subjected to It.
 Extreme cold, as is well known, ex- erts benumbing influence upon the mental faculties. Almost everyone who has been exposed, for a longer or a shorter period, to a very low tempera- ture has noted diminution in will power, and often temporary weaken ing of the memory. Perhaps the largest scale upon which this action has ev4r been studied was during the re- treat of the French from Moscow. The troops suffered extremely from hunger, fatigue and cold-from the latter per haps most of all. A German physician who accompanied a detachment of his countrymen has left an interesting ac- count of their trials during this retreat. From an abstract Of this paper by Dr. Rose, in the New York 'Medicinische Monatschrift, we find that one of the earliest symptoms 1eferablc to the cold was 8 loss of memory. This was noted in the strong as well as those who were already suffering from the effects of the hardships to which they had been exposed. With the first appearance of a moderately low temperature (about five degrees above zero Fahrenheit), many of the soldiers were found to

FOURTH AT FLAGSTAFF.
Preparations Made for a Rous-
 ing Celebration.
The Enterprising City of the Pines will Spend Small Fortune
 on the Occasion.

From the Flagstaff Democrat.
 Monday evening a large number of citizens met in the office of E. s. Clark to discuss the matter of a Fourth of July celebration. Few words were needed for all present to express their sentiments in favor of celebration, not a little $l ,25O celebration, lasting one day, but one lasting three days, and costing s2,5O0.
 Mayor D. M. Riordan was chosen chairman and E. s. Clark secretary. On taking the chair Mir. Riordan said that he believed that at least 1000 people would be in attendance from the southern part of the territory in ad- dition to those who would attend from the adjoining towns. and as the Fourth falls on Thursday, he favored con- tinuing the celebration until Saturday night, having the patriotic exercises on Thursday, and the races and other sports on the two following days.
 The following were appointed gen. eral committee of arrangements: David Babbitt, Dr. D. J. Brannen, E. s. Clark, Chas. Canal, Geo. Hockderffer, Oscar Gibson. A. T. Cornish. J. W. Francis, Ralph Cameron, George Hoxworth, D. M. Riordan. The committee were in- structed to secure subscriptions at once. and to have half the amount subscribed paid in by May 1st. The list was headed by D. M. Riordan for $250; D. Rabbit $250; Julius Aubineau, $50; Dr. Bran nen, $25; Coffin Bros., $20; Tim Dona- hua S100

KaIakaua and LiIiuokalani Res
ponsible for Heathenism.
CONVERTS AMONG THE NATIVES.
Great HOPES for the Hawaiians Now
that They Are I'm the Enjoyment of
a Pure and Free Government-offi-
GERS of state are Especially Praised.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-The Rev.
Robert Stewart Macarthur delivered a
sermon in the Calvary Baptist church
last night on "The Responsibility of
Kalakaua and Liliuokalani."
After referring to the characteristics
of the Hawaiians he quoted figures to
show the falling off in the number of
Christian converts among the natives
since the reign of Kamehameha V,
who removed all restraint from the
Hula masters and Kahuna influence
and thereby aided the spread of idol
airy.
From 1898, when missionaries first
visited the islands, to lS4S, $1,000 con-
verts to Christianity were made.
Twenty thousand more converts join
ed the Christian standard within the
next twenty years. In 1883 there were
only 5235 converts among the natives
of the islands, and within the next
three or four years the number was
still further decreased. This alarm
ing falling off was not to be ascribed
to the large decrease in the native
population.
Among the causes which the
preacher held responsible for the re-
action in the spread of Christianity in
the islands was the rise of the Ka-
huna and Hula masters. The former
is a form of superstitious worship and
the latter kind of priest who favored
the practice of idolatrOus ceremonies.
The worst forms of heathenism were
revived under Kalakaua, who formed
the Hale Naua Society.
Liliuokalani, who succeeded her
brother Kalakaua, was little better
than be.
DR.. Macarthur said he had great
hopes for the Hawaiians now that
they were in the enjoyment Of pure
and free government. He eulogized
the officers of state, who are admins
tering the affairs of the people.
'They are good Christian men," he
claimed, 'and their government is
the purest in the world today"

MESSAGE OF CLEVELAND.
Will Make 10 Recommendations o.
Changes in the Tariff.
Advocate strong Measures with Re-
gard to Cuba and the Venezuela
Hawaiian Policy.

/ NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The Jour-
nails special from Washington is as
/ follows:
Every thought is concentrated on
the coming message Of the president.
The cabinet has heard parts of ii read,
and there are some reasonable conclu-
sions that can now be drawn as to its
drift. First, the president is really
estopped from recommending any
changes in the tariff, despite the
words of disapproval appended with
his signature to the Wilson bill. He
will, therefore, recommend raising
the increased revenue by internal tax
alton.
Second, Mr.. Cleveland's financial
views have not undergone any
change. He still maintains that
treasury notes and greenbacks are
constant and permanent menace to
the gold reserve.
Third, the president is committed
to some recommendations on Great
Britain's encroachment on Nenezu
ella. During Judge Gresham's life the
attitude of the president regarding
these British encroachments in South
America was positively known. Gre
sham believed our Hawaiian policy
had been wise, but its unpopularity
admonished him to find release
in which this Government might
with dignity assert itself. Not
long before his death he stated in my
hearing his belief that the Venezuelan
boundary question would soon become
one OF such gravity that the United
States could Lot avoid asserting itself
in most emphatic manner. The last
congress adopted resolution asking
the president to interpose, and he
made certain representations to Great
Britain that have met with scant
courtesy. That the president will sug
gest in strong terms the necessity of a
tion is regarded as certain.
However much he may sympathiZe
with the struggling Cubans reasonable
authority exists for saying that the
president will not recommend inter
vention. In the interest OF humanity
a possibility exists that Mr.. Cleveland
may suggest the making of an appeal
for peace. Turkey is long way off,
and considerable may be said in pro-
test against the massacre of Armeni
ans without any fear of committing
the American people to armed inter
ference. The Alaskan boundary and
Bering sea fisheries do not appear to
give uneasiness at the State Depart
ment. For that reason it will in all
probability not be considered of suffi-
cient importance to be dwelt upon at
length. Comments upon various other
departments of the Government sup
ply the remainder of the necessary
Is, 600 words.

Aid to Ex-Confederates.

CHICAGO, Nov. pa special to
the Post from Washington says:
Representative Otey, q Virginia
Congressman, announces his purpose
to Introduce a bill to appropriate
$27, ,0O0, 600 for the benefit OF ex-Con-
federate soldiers, conditional upon an
equal amount being appropriated by
the States in which the Confederate
veterans live. His proposition is
founded on the plea that the $27, ,OO0,-
600 represents the proceeds of cap
tured property turned into the Fed
eral Treasury during the war, and
that the people Of the South have q
moral claim for the money.
