The following bit of the secret history of the ''policy of infamy," comes from Honolulu, to the San Francisco Chroni- cle: On the day the Americans aboard the Philadelphia expected to make war upon the Americans, British, Germans, and the anti-monarchical natives in Hon. olulu, an officer of the flagship managed to send a note to friend in the city. He said: For Gods sake don't fire on us. Fall back a couple of blocks from the palace. We are only going to observe the letteryof orders. We will put the queen back in her throne room and leave. You can then at once drive her out again. :" But at the very latest moment, after the bluejackets had slung their knapsacks, the American minister, or the admiral, or both, decided it was best to leave the Provisional government unmolested.

A Bit of Il

This is Il bit of genuine scandal.

An opinion of considerable import
ancc to the new SpaperS of the country
has been handed down by Judge End
Itch, of the Common Pleas Court of
Berks County. Pa. The case was that
of Deborah Shelly against John i.
Dampman, proprietor of the Reading
CPa.) Herald. The newspaper was sus-
tanned by the judge in every point. The
judge decided that in the publication of
the article complained of the defendant
was clearly within his rights as Il jour
nalist. and it having been shown that
reasonable care and caution was OK
ercised. he cannot be held accountable
for an honest mistake. The principal
rulings were rs follows: An accOunt
of Il criminal proceeding is matter prop
er for public information. and is a priv
LEGGED communication. A mistake in "A
privileged communication. if it be Il
necessary part Of the report of the oc-
currence and such a matter of detail as
would usually be inserted in such Il re-
port, partakeS of the privilege, though
it may. in point of fact. be untrue. The
presumption of malice where an incor-
rect statement has been made i'm a
privileged communication. though the
statement may reflect upon an indi-
vidual. is rebutted by the fact that reas-
enable care was exercised in verifying
the statement, and that there was reaS-
enable and probable cause for believing
it to be true. A newspaper publisher
Is not TO be held to any s~tricter account
ability in the conduct of his business
than other persons engaged in business
enterprises. The question of whether
or not a communication is privileged
is IL question for the court and not for
the jury. 1t is an absolute impOsSibility
for newspapers in Il day to do the
work which the times and the people
expect and demand. and at the same
time to verify to a certainty every item
and explore for possible falsity in what
seems true. Certainly nothing more
should be eXacted from them in that
line than is required from other indi.
vidualS.

Proper Care Of "a Piano.

A musical instrument may be regard
ed in the light of an exotic. costly and
requiring constant and careful atten-
ton.
1t is also like a ~racc-lOrse; the better

past record of great things accom-
pliShcd.
Frequently, though. Il costly and
beautiful piano grows worthless and
.uneless because it has been neglected.
Like a ~race-horse, also. il needs TO
oe kept covered after use.
In frosty weather, especially. always
lose it when not in use, and if posi-
bic throw a cover over il. Keep in q
moderately warm room not too near
he source Of heat, and let the tempera-
turc be wen. Not cold one day and
hot the next, but warm all the time
say GO or 20 degrees the year round.
Always place the piano against an
inside wall, and a little out from il.
