BATTLE SHIP INDIANA.
Expectations More than Realized at
Her Recent Trial Trip.

Boston, OCT. 16.-The battle ship In
diana, which left the Cramps ship.yard ON
Saturday for an official trip, dropped
anchor of the Boston light last night.
From the south end of the lightship of
the New Jersey coast, to the New South
Shoals, Mass, the ship averaged 12H
knots per hour with head sea running.
No attempt was made to approach the
speed limit of Is knots per hour, but the
engines and boilers were found in first
class condition. Commodore Selfridge,
after reading the report sent him by the
members OF the trial board, said: "They
bring me very gratifying news regarding
the steadiness of the new battle ship.
with the heavy armor and armament it
was naturally expected, judging from the
ex perience Of other countries with mo.
dern battle ships, that we would have a
considerable roll to contend with. One Of
EnQlsnd's battle ships is said have rolled
four degrees, whereas the Indiana does
not record a roll of even one degree. This
gives her almost stationary gun plat.

GIBBON BEATS MILES.
The Veteran Soldier Elected Grand
Com mmander Of the Loyal Legion
To-day.

Washington,' Oct. 16.-The. .commandery
in chief of the Loyal Legion sat in bien-
nial session today. General Lucius Fair
child, grand commander, presided. There
we're seventy-seven delegates, represent
ing every state except Oregon. The first
ballot for commander resulted: General
Miles, 81; General John Gibbon, !6; Gen
eral Swayne, IL. General Glbbon was
elected on the second BALLOT, receiving
sixty votes to twenty for General Miles.
Miles lacked only one vote of election on
the first ballot and it is believed
would have succeeded on the second but
for the superior age of General Gibbon,
which influenced many delegates.

THE POPE SPEAKS.
A Letter to the American Catholic
Hierarchy COndemning the Con-
crosses OF Religion.

Philadelphia, Oct. 16.-Pope Leo has
written an important letter to the Cath
olic hierarchy of America condemning the
assemblage of congresses of religion.
The letter was the main subject con-
sidered at the recent assembling Of arch
bishops at Washington, but all efforts at
secrecy we're successful. What steps the
archbishops took can not be learned, but
with the views of the pope thus clearly
expressed doubtless the American church
will anathematze all congresses of re-
ligion the same way as the interdiction
was placed on Catholic participation
in the Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows
and other societies.

Superintendent Moulder announces that
in the recently printed course of study"
there is an error as to the school age, which
is liable to confuse and mislead, as it con-
flicts with section 116 of the rules. The
correct rule is: mo child under years of
age can be admitted as pupil in the
schools"
Superintendent Moulder is in receipt of a
letter from +. ]. Bernies, &c West Fourth
street, Cincinnati, asking information
about one-time pupil of the public
schools here. 1t says:

Rodolphe Sails that Willette first became
celebrated.
Besides pictures there are other works of
art presented by artists not yet famous
Odd as the decorations are the inscrip-
lions, rules and regulations. For ex-
ample, halfway up the staircase leading
to the tiny theater is an inscription which
commentaries the fact that on certain
night the cafe was visited by President
Carnot, "who is the successor of Charlie

floor of the esta blishment is devoted to in

Parisians drink beer and eat sandwiches,

BARONESS ALTHEA SALVADOR

PARIS, March Is, 95.-Rodolphe Sails,
the gentleman beer-seller and Seigneur de
Chat Noirville, finding himself very much
bored in the country, has returned to the
Rue Victor Masse, Paris. Boldly he has
arrayed himself in his old grayish-brown
tunic of Piedmontese form and is now
ready to recommence his extravaganza
speeches, his addresses to the ssliterarv
highnesses'' of Montmartre, the quarter
where is found the brain of Paris. Not
yet has Sails recovered his sparkling wit
of former days, but on the stage of the
'Black Cat" Tavern he has gathered a
company of young musicians and poets
who in the future must be famous.
Goudesi and Mentoza both have much
talent. The first is blonde, bald and timid
in appearance, but his poems are very
ironical, mixture of the ideal and play
upon words.
DR.. Mentoza is poet who sings with a
most agreeable voice his own verses, which
re exquisitely delicate. All those who
hear him say that his declaration of love to

his smaller craft, commanded by his son,
and killed all the crew except the mate,
Davis. They also captured the boatswain
OF the other vessel, John Young. These
two men married native women and be-
came powerful for good and evil.
Vancouver came next, in 1898, bringing
presents and promising the King ship
and artillery. He made three voyages
His ponderous books, like those of Cook
and La Perouse, as we'll as those of Rus
sian naylgators, are elaborate in detail and
full OF stirring illustrations. No land in
the world with such brief history has had
so many and such reliable historians as
the Hawaiian Islands.
1t may be mentioned here that these
early yogagers found almost no animals
there. Even the pussy cat was unknown.
Sandalwood seemed to be preferred by the
Chinese. As the chiefs claimed all the
lands they had endless revenues, giving
only the least little whisky, trinkets and
gin to those who bore the wood from the
mountains to the ships on their shoulders.
In exchange for the sandalwood the King
and his chiefs obtained silks, velvets,
clocks, carved wood and trinketS of all
sorts; all cleaned in such barbaric splen-
dor as has not been seen since the days of
Montezuma. This monstrous wealth at
tracted merchant ships of all nations.
Russian shipments came from Alaska
several years later under command of a
famous botanist who, getting a grant of
land, endeavored to obtain possession and
drive out the natives and English. But
the King now bad quite feet and stout
armament. He drove out the pretenders
and soon after had the satisfaction of see
ing their acts repudiated by the Gar.
There was something really heroic in the
way the Kanaka giant with his club pro-
posed to knock out all Russia. He had
about forty sail for his fleet, from twenty
to forty tons each, and perhaps forty can
mons. His bloodless victories EN- boldened
him to dictate letter to George Ill, de-
manding that he should send him the ship
and brass guns which Vancouver had
promised him when he took possession OF
Hawaii.

Joyous companions of his own tastes that
day the 'Chat Noir'' would be in a
large house, furnished like museum,
with stained glass windows presented by
great artists, and that his clientele would
be found among the elite of society, all
grateful to him for reviving the .old-fash-
Toned laugh. 1t is related of Sails that
once he announced that he was dead, and
sent out invitations for his funeral to be
held at the "Black Cat" The coffin was
closed, the friends and acquaintance as
sembled and made speeches in honor of
the dead cabaretier. That was the begin
ming of the burial service, but gradually
remarks became less and less compliment
airy, until Sails could no longer quietly
listen, and came out from his hiding place

Time has swept swiftly by since gold was
found here, and we have been so busy that
few of us have any real solid knowledge OF
the Sandwich Islands or their story, ex-
cept such as we gathered in early youth in
other lands, when the hat was being
handed around for the heather. But now
that the affairs of our next-door neighbors
force themselves to the front it is well to
know a few facts.
In the first place, then, the Kanakas
were never cannibals. I know we were
made to believe they were; books of a
blood-curdling kind have been written
about cannibals out there, but let US see
what the first reliable authority says.
