In the March number of Frank Les
lies Popular Monthly the wonderful
story of the life and inventions of
Thomas Alva Edison is set forth, in
an article by Henry TyrreIl, with the
apparent purpose of contrasting an
actual living hero, modern conquer
or of science, with the dark and sinis-
ter shadow of Napoleon as projected
anew by the curious contemporary
revival of his sanguinary legend. The
paper is accompanied with some in
eresting illustrations, including new
portraits Of Edison, oil his parents,
wife, children, and scientific collabo-
rators.

The KENTUCKGAN does not think the
financial question should be brought
into State politics this year. 1t is
much better to elect the State ticket
on State issues and settle the silver
question when we send delegates to
the next National Convention instruct
ed to vote for Stevenson and free coin
age. If, however, the advocates of &
contracted currency are determined
to force the issue into State politics
the KENTUoKIAN will be found where
it has always been, on the side of the
people, and against the "money bar
ons" who have struck down half the
peoples money, and are moving heav
en- and earth to prevent the wrong
from being righted. If "a3gnd" rrqr

and often no money at all, then give

The attendance was full and one OF
two of the members were in the same
condition.
| Col. Bonte was not present. lie
sent word that he had bone in his
foot and could not be on hand to de-
liver his long promised lecture about
the Chinese war.
Col. Buck Leavell offered to lect.
ure on that subject himself, rather
than disappoint the Club, but there
we're signs of an uprising and he
concluded to turn his proposition in.
to joke and laugh it off. This he
did and laughed so immoderately
that it took two men to hold him.
At this point, Col Green Champ
lin said he believed he would go and
get his mail. This turned the discus
sion to the postoffice, and some one
asked if it was true that the new
postmaster had decided to lock the
outside doors while opening the mail?
President Pyle said he had heard as
much, and if it was true he supposed
it was because people persisted in

This brought both gentlemen to
their feet and the discussion began TO
take on lurid hue. Others chimed

involved in doubt that the Club de-
cided to adjourn till Monday right

have been married over thirty years
| and have no children.
Mrs. Dominis long held a prominent
place in Honolulu society, associating
from youth with the more cultivated
ladies of the capital, among whom, like
Queen Emma and the late Princess
Pauohi Bishop, of honored memory, she
received her early education. She has
perfect use of English, a good literary
and an especially good musical culture.
Her manner is peculiarly winning her
bearing noble and becoming, the
latter a characteristic of Hawaiian
royalty. Few persons were ever more
stately and impressive than many of
the royal chiefs could be upon occasion.
Besides small private fortune, the
stipend of $4,000. As queen she re-
ceived $4,000 per annum. A sumptuous
palace was also maintained for the
sovereign's use. Besides all this was
the life use of the income of the crown
lands, which amounted during her
reign to perhaps $4,000 per year.
these provisions were then regarded
as ample for purposes of royal state
hospitality in SO small kingdom, al
though King Kalakaua could never
make both ends meet any more than
could his admired friend, the prince of
Wales.
In religious affihation Liliuokalani
continued to adhere to the persuasion
of the earlier generations of chiefs, de-
clining to follow Queen Emma and
King Kalakaua in going to Anglican
fellowship Like King Lunalilo and
Princess Pauohi, she retained her seat
in the old stone church connected with
the American mission. For some years
she has been a member of the woman's
board of missions and an interested
participant in their meetings. She has
for years been very active and munif-
icent patroness of the Kawaiahae sem
mary for training native girls and
greatly looked up to by teachers and
pupils. AS queen she gave evidence of
having deeply at heart the moral well
fare of her people. She has a large
fund of good sense and somewhat de-
terrnined will.

Nature intended that all human beings should mate as soon as they reached the age of maturity, but un- fortunately society, custom and sur roundings have willed it otherwise. However, should nature have it's course, some communities are so small that it IS impossible to mate it's young people satisfactorily, and they are forced to pass down the river of life forgotten and alone. A happy thought was the formation of the Affinity Publishing Company, of Scranton, Pa. They arc issuing a high class matrimonial journal winch is widely endorsed. Its ob. ject is to bring kindred souls to- gether by means of correspondence. and no doubt the result will be 8 number of happy marriages.

No mystery about it. When the Shakers offered some time ago to give away bottle of their Diges- tive Cordial to anyol.c who might call at their New York office, there was a great rush and great many people thought they were crazy.
 Subsequent events prove It to have been Q very clever advertising transaction, for although they gave away thousands of bottles, it was in the end profitable; nearly every one that took & free bottle came back for more and paid for 1t with pleasure, saying they had derived better results from its use than any other medicine they had ever uscd'

Increases the disco mfort of tho voy- aeer. But even when tho weather is not tempestuous he is liable to sea sickness. They who traverse the gigantic wetness" should be provided with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which quiets disordered stomachs with gratifying speed and certainty. To the hurtful influence of a tropic, malarious or too rigor- ous.o damp climate, as we'll as to the bancful effects of unwholesome diet and bad water, it is reliable antidote. Commercial travellers by sea or land, mariners, miners, western pioneers, and all who have to encounter vicissitudes of clin. ate and temperature, concur in pro- nouncing it the best safeguard. It prevents rheumatism and pulmon- ary attacks in consequence of damp and cold, and it is an efficient de.
 fcnse against all forms of malaria.
 It can be depended upon in dyspep'
