A DESPERATE LEPER.
He is Arrested by G. A.
Brown.

Manuela, q half Portuguese
leper who gained some notoriety a
few months ago by defying the
police officers who were hunting
him, was surprised in his house
at Waiau last Tuesday by @. A.
Brown, and quietly submitted to
arrest. The man is desperate
character, and he struck terror
into the hearts of the police who
knew him as a dead shot, and did
not banker for a second Koolau
affair. He was therefore left in
peace and lived like an outlaw in
the Waiawa mountains, coming to
his house at night. @, A. Brown,
who now ranks as a first class
sleuth and hero, and who may.
take McEvoy's place yet, found
Win chester rife and some ammu-
which he promptly appro-
priated and forwarded to the Mar
shall.

JUNE 9th, 1895.

1t is the object of all good citi--
zens to draw as many tourists to
the country as possible. The peo-
pie who trayel for pleasure are,
as rule, we'll supplied with
money, and wherever they go they
leave money behind. All classes
benefit the more money is set in
circulation. But to get tourists
here, it is necessary to hold out
inducements to them. They must
know that they can get first class
accommodation, and that they
will find a first class table. A
good table can be set in every
hotel, boarding house and private
house if those in charge know
what and where to buy. 1 can

on earth is got legitimately through
marriage. The children's minds are
filed with this one idea, and often
you will hear boy of or 10 asking
his father to get him married
l spoke in a former paper of the
ease with which a man may divorce
his wife. This freedom of divorce is
largely taken advantage of here in
Sheihh Gilman. A man may have
nine wives or more within a space of
II months, though woman cannot
have so many husbands. Still, she
may have three, or perhaps four,
within the year. Yet such a man Is
not a bad, irreligious man. His re-
ligion, not merely his civil law, gives
him this liberty. And such a woman
is not an immoral woman. She has
been the legal wife of each in turn.
Cases such as these are not, in Sheikh
Gilman, isolated. Again, a man
may have four wives in different
places. l know man who has one
wife in the Yemen hills, another here,
besides a divorced one also here, and
tllrd wife in India. Other cases
are similar.

Co.'S weekly report says: The exports
of gold and Withdrawals from the
treasury have been almost entirely
stopped by the contract for the pur-
chaseS Of gold from the Bclmont-Mor-
gan syndicate. For the moment bust
ness waits to know Wheth I the sales
of American securities and the with
drawals of gold from the TREASURY
have been lastingly stopped by the re-
markable increase in confidence Two
obstacles which block the path just
now are the exceeding cheapness of
farm products and the restricted opera
tons in industries. There has been
no gain in prices of farm products on
the whole. A few words tell the old
story: the corn crop is undeniably
spoiled, although there is probably a
much larger supply than is officially
reported. Failures for the week 30

STREET RAILWAYS IN ENGLAND.
Birmingham Looks Closely After the
Interests of Her Citizens.

George Francis Trains famous at
tempts to introduce tramways in the
British towns in 1860 did not neglect
Birmingham, says DR.. Albert Shaw
in his Municipal Government in Great
Britain Mr.. Train was granted an
experimental concession which he
failed to utilize, and in 1861 the cor
poration itself obtained parliamentary
authority to build tramways. But
nothing was done until after the gem
eral tramwayS act of 1870 was passed.
At length in 1878, the council laid
the first line at a cost of $4,000 and
leased it for seven years to an operat-
ing company. From time to time other
lines have been built and leased, but
the corporations limits included only
S4O0 acres until Nov. 8, 1891, when
they were increased to 1866 acres
by the annexation of suburbs then
containing some $4,000 people Thus,
when the corporations street railway
system was under construction the
average distance from the center to
the circumference of Birmingham was
only two miles, and twenty-five miles
of tram lines are the total extent of
the municipal ownership. Outside of
the city's jurisdiction the operating
companies have extended the lines by
still greater mileage. In the future,
undoubtedly, these extensions will be
acquired by the Birmingham corpora
ton at a fair valuation, in accordance
with the methods prescribed in the
general tramways act. The present
municipal lines arc operated in part
by horse power and in part by steam,
with cable and electricity also intro
duced on certain routes.
The terms Of rental are worthy Of
mention. First, the leasing companies
agree to pay per cent. on the full
municipal Investment for the first
fourteen years of the lease and 5 per
cent. for the remaining seven years
Second, the companies also pay an an,
nuaI sum which at compound interest
will accumulate fund equal to the
whole capital outlay at the end of the
twenty -one years lease. 1t is calcu-
lated and agreed that 4 per cent for
fourteen years and per cent. for the
remaining seven years Will suffice to
raise the full amount of capital
Meanwhile, also, the companies pay all
current charges for repairs and main
tenance of the lines upon receiving
bills certified by the city surveyor 1t
should be remembered that Birming-
ham is able to borrow at very low
rates. and it is clear that these terms
are profitable to the municipality. At
the end of the twenty-one years the
earning value of the franchises will
have increased and new leases can be
executed on terms still more advanta-
geous to the city. But while Rirming-
ham has thus protected the ratcpayers
so handsomely it has accomplished
even more in the guarding of the in
tereSls of the travelling public. Every
detail as to rates of fare and character
of service is described in the bylaws
and regulations that the companies
have to accept. The minutenesS of the
requirements touching duties and con-
duct of drivers and conductors, fur
nishing and lighting of cars and so on,
would amaze an American community,

WOMEN AND MEN IN ARABIA.
TheUnequal Relations That Now EX,
list Between Them.

Rev w. X. Gardner Of Aden Arabia,
in the Christian Register Though
the Koran teaches that women are to
be reyerenced, the reverence which
they receive at the hands of husbands,
brothers, and male children is scant
indeed. Almost any day you may
hear boy of not more than 10 telling
his mother to be quiet, if she happens
to say anything which does not suit
him. And the fathers will often laugh
openly when they see the boys thus
speaking back to their mothers. He
is a boy; he is of much more account
than his mother. | have even heard a
young Sayyid Qineal descendant of
Mohammed), who was well educated
according to the current standard of
education, and who could even read
and speak a little English, say that
women were not nearly so valuable as
cows. And much of this feeling to-
ward women must be put down to the
ignorance SO rife among them. Only
one in hundred, or it may even be
said in two hundred, can read and
write among the men; and one in a
thousand among the women would be
n very high estimate. The girls are
seldom sent to school; and even when
they are allowed to 20 they do not stay
long enough to learn anything of real
use. The marriageable age is such
that they cannot be left long at school
1t would be a disgrace. Very many
are married at l. years old. And, be
it understood, this is not mere be-
trohhal. At this age they are consid-
cred as being fit for all the duties of
a married woman, even to the burden
of collaborating Nor is it only to
young boys of II or Il, or to young
men of 10 or 20, that such girls are
given in marriage. | have seen more
than one ease in which young girl
of about Il years of age or So was
married to an old man of about 40 or
10. He could be nothing of compan-
ion to her. He had outgrown all his
youthful feelings; and she could be
little more than his servant in all but
name-hiS slave. Such young girls
may be shut up and have no other
companion from morn till night, from
years end to years end, but the sight
OF woman'S face over the court
yard wall, or little gossip, at the
we'll when drawing water; while
many, though they may have com
panionS in the household are not al
lowed to 90 out, even to draw water,
except for brief visit at some mar
rage or feast time. Less than four
months ago | saw young girl of
about 10 or 16 who had run away
from her husbands home in the Ie-
men hills because of ill-treatment and
had come here TO Sheikh Gilman to
some friends, knowing that in British
territory she could not be treated at
least quite 50 badly, though the Eng
liSh government does not profess to in
terfere in any way with the Moham-
medan laws and customs Her hus-
band had chained her zip at home with
heavy iron chains for more than a
week
Boys are taught that marriage is the
one good thing in life,-the one thing
to which they should look forward. A
man is not a man till he is married;
nay, they even 20 farther. and say
he is not man till he has had chill
dren Marriage is the great end Of
life: the greatest pleasure TO be gained
