FASHION NOTES.

The popular delft effects are shown
now in brooches and even stick-pins.
The day of the glazed kid glove for
dress occasions seems about over. The
soft, dull suedes are once more popular
and glazed kid is regarded as poor
substitute for the heavy dogskin gloves
dear to the tailor-made girl.
Hatpins of solid gold, in the shape
of round balls, looks very pretty when
used to pin on black velvet hat. Tur-
quoise, surrounded by diamonds, or
more often rhinestones, is the pin par
excellence for the bonnet of the up
to-date girl.
Black velvet capes, elaborately en-
broidered with jet. are very fashion
able. In shape they are much like
those in vogue last year, but are rather
longer. Flower-strewn satin Is used
for the same purpose, adorned with
jetted trimming.
Corduroy is coming to the front as
q fashionable material for street suits.
Double breasted stylish coat bodices
opening over vests of leather is one
handsome design for them. The ma
terial is practically everlasting in
wear, and If made with elegance, is ex-
ceedingly effective.
The new winter boa will be con-
glomeration of fur tails, lace and
flowers. 1t is short, merely encircling
the neck and falling short distan Sc
over the corsage. The most improved
boa is of sable, fastened in front with
little animals head, from which
three sable tails are suspended, while
frill of lace is caught under the head
and bunch OF violets is stuck in at
the side.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

New milk will fatten q colt faster
than skinned milk.
Fertilizer can be profitably applied
with or without manure, and will more
than pay for their cost.
In keeping down the expenses do
not do it by denying wife needed help
in the house. That is the poorest
economy.
Care should be taken OF to cloy the
appetite of a colt, and when there is
any symptoms of that the feed should
be cut down at once.
Manure is recommended by all ex-
perienced farmers and experimenters,
but it is scarce article compared with
the area of land to be covered, unless
there is large number OF animals
kept on the farm.
If the legs, ankles, joints and pas
terms are strong, and the colts ap-
petite is keen, the grain ration can be
increased to three quarts at feed
three times day, especially if he has
regular work to do, either to harness
or on the kindergarten.
The majority of farmers prefer to
use manure, and seldom resort to the
use of fertilizers. They cannot pro.
duce sufficient manure for large
farm and manure one field year.
The plan is excellent, but they lose
time by not using fertilizers on those
fields where no manure has been mp
piled.
Those who keep but one COW and
save the cream until sufficiency has
accumulated for churning will not
succeed in making choice butter. as it
is a mistake to mix the old and new
cream. This is q fact that is fre-
quently overlooked, and has been the
cause of more failures than anything
else.
The Russian thistle has moved a
little closer to the East, and it is
simply matter of time when it will
be established on the Atlantic coast.
The railroad cars bring the seeds and
scatter them along the lines. Good
cultivation destroys it. 1t is not as
severe pest as the gypsy moth or the
potato beetle.
A writer in the Chicago Times
Herald recently advocated preserving
corn in air-tight bins. He says, and
truly, that less care is taken of the
corn crop than of any other grain the
farmer raises. He also holds and en-
deavors to prove that no other grain
is injured more by exposure to storm
and other misuse.
With many farmers the most serious
problem of life is to get out of debt.
The only way to solve it is either to
keep down the expenses or to increase
the income, or, if possible, both. The
danger is that in endeavoring to in
crease the income expenses are in
creased to point that leaves no profit
and the debt is as far from being paid
as ever.
The great mistake which farmers
make IN sowing clover seed under
Western conditions is tina tthey do net
give it deep enough covering As
to depth of covering, no general rule
can be LAID down except this. that. il
must be deep enough to secure mois-
ture and not too deep to exclude light.
There is heat enough in the soil in the
! simmer season Mt almost any depth
10 which it might be covered in ordl-
nary agricultural operations.

Low WAGON WHEELS FROM toas.

Select log of tho desired size from
q agum sycamore, or any other hard
timber that does not split readily,
writes G. NJ. Davis, of Wayne County,
Illinois. Saw off the wheels, making
them the desired thickness. Then
take out the spokes from an old wagon
wheel, square the hub, and fit into the
center of the log wheel. The wheel is
then completed and will last many
years on farms, or even for the road,
if we'll taken care of. Many of these
are in use in this vicinity, and are
quite satisfactory. American Agri-
culturist.

A County All of Whose People Are Kin.

county All OF Whose People Are kins
1t is stated as an actual fact that all
the people residing in Letcher County,
Kentucky, are related to one another,
directly or Indirectly. The reason OF
this is found in the remarkable Webb
family. There are three brothers and
three sisters of the original family, all
living near Sergent, and they have no
fewer than 74S descendants living in
the neighborhood. The Oldest MEM
Der of the family. Lettie, is eighty
two years old. and has twenty chill
dren, nlnety-fve grandchildren, and
fifty great-grandchildren. Polly aged
eighty, has sixteen children and al
most as many grandchildren and great
grandchildren as Lettie. The young
est, Wiley, has the fewest descendants.
He is seventy years old and has eleven
children. fifty-four grandchildren, and
fifteen great-grandchildren. - New

Pra ctical Logic.

To reason from cause to effect is very good
logic in its way, but to practice on physical
conditions in seeking the cause irst, lisa very
slow process indeed. All ailments seem to
give an expression in pain. and especially in
rheumatism where il takes hold deeply. This
is an effect. whatever the cause may be, and
pain would become intolerabIe if one waited
TO find out the cause. Hence sufferers are
bent on curing the pain promptly, and for
this reason know, or soon find out that ST.
Jacobs Oil is surely the best remedy. Pec-
pie seldom nave reason to hunt further, for
once this aiment is cured by it, 1t stays
cured, and thus puts an end to argument
and pain at once.

THE HOUSEHOLD GARBAGE CONSUMER

THE HOUSEHOLD GARBAGE CONSUMER
A Boston physician has invented a
vice by which all kitchen garbage may
be utilized as fuel. The material is

hot air from the range circulates un-
til oil the moisture is evaporated.
The receptacle then contains q guam

BILE and will make excellent kindling.
or may be thrown upon the fire and
speedily burns out. This, OF coarse,
is practicable only where people burn
coal fires. In wood-stoves the heat is
not of the right quality unless the fire
is kept up to raging pitch. Where
gas or electricity or oil is used fer
heating, this way of disposing of gar
bage is out of the question. There
are, however, enough coal-stoves used
in our large cities to make this mat
ter of very great importance. Itwould
pay the Board of Health to furnish
these garbage dryers to every family,
and pass the most stringent laws COM
pelling their use and proper care. The
most useful plan would be to use the
garbage as fertilizer for worn out
lands, but this involves great cost and
great danger. Decaylng animal and
vegetable matter must be carted
through the streets, drippings fall upon
the pavements, nre dried and whirled
by the wind into the nostrils of pedes-
trans. Where it is possible, garbage
should be consumed, and, by the way,
q great deal of this is done when moth
ing is said about it. Many families put
into the kitchen range everything of a
waste character, and find great e,ono'

The Republic had been established
more than year; those who
had not taken the oath should
not be allowed any privileges. Oppo-
nents of the Government, if they Sc
cured lands, would be still more an
tagonistic. The amendment was wise
and timely, and he hoped it would
prevail.
Rep. Kaeo thought the section as
printed strong enough, and would vote
against the amendment.
Rep. Robertson spoke strongly against
the amendment. 1t was aimed solely
against native Hawaiians. He was
not in favor of royalists and their doc
trines, but thought it was going just
little too far to deprive a man of a
home on this account. Natives who,
through ill-advice and stubbOrnness,
had failed to come into the fold should
be pitied rather than try to show them
the error of their ways by enactment
OF specific legislation. Sooner or later
they would recognize existing affairs.
Rep. Hunanu said the amendment
was something that could be complied
with easily. Those who stood out
against the Government like stub
born jackasses needed something to
whip them into line. He recited an
incident in the early life OF almost
every man to bear out the stand taken
by him. He thought those who failed
to support the Government should
not derive any benefits from it.
The Attorney General told how
numbers of natives had deprived
themselves of the right to vote, ETC.,
through failure to take prescribed
oath. While this was true, he did not
believe it wise to insert the amend
ment. Amendment lost on standing
vote of S to 3.
Several changes of a minor nature
were made in preceding sections, sew
eral being referred to committees.
A motion of Rep. NaOne at 2 40 that
the committee rise, report progress,
ETC., was defeated.
After consideration of sections up
to 46, the committee at 40, on mo-
tion Of Rep. Hanuna, reported pro-
gress as above.

that if the member from the Fourth
District continued to introduce bills as
rapidly as commenced this morning,
the Secretary would have as much, if
not more, work TO accomplish than at
previous sessions.
Rep. Kamauoha was of the opinion
that the Clerk should receive as much
compensation as the Interpreter, cit
ing ratio paid during the last Legisla-
ture.
On tie the Speaker voted against
the amendment.
The rates were finally adjusted at
Secretary IS; interpreter so sergeant

After Rep. Robertson had moved for
a joint committee OF the Senate and
House on printing of the rules, which
was carried, the House went into COM
mittee of the whole on the Land Act.
Part VII, Inalienable Homesteads,
Section 81, caused a general argument
regarding fee of 50 to sub-agent when
making application for lots.
Consideration of the Land bill con-
tinued and occupied the attention of
the House all the afternoon.
An amendment by Rep. Hanuna to
insert in first line of Section 35, as por-
ton of qualifications of applicants,
"and who has taken an oath to sup
port the Constitution of the Republic
of Hawaii" called forth eloquence
from several members.
Rep. Richards did not favor the
amendment. He said there were
many good men who had not taken
the oath to support the Republic. This
should not prevent them from acquir-
ing hOmesteads. No political distinc
tion should be made when it was de-
sired to secure lands.
Rep. Naone spoke elOquently and at
length IN favor of the qualification.

House of Representatives.

The morning session of the House
was mostly confined to routine mat
tiers.
A petition from South Kona for a
schOOlhouse was presented by Rep.
Kamauoha. Referred to Education
Committee.
The Finance Committee, through
Chairman McBryde, reported favOrably
on the bill to Regulate the Currency.
Laid on the table for consideration
with the bill.
Following this Rep. Robertson in
troduced three bills, as mentioned
above.
Minister of Foreign Affairs Hatch
replied as follows to the questions pro-
pounded by Rep. Robertson the day
previous:
O. Has the Government author
lied the introduction of any Chinese
labOrers under Chapter so, Laws of
1892?
y. Yes; it has.
q. If so, how many?
A Two hundred and eighty-seven.
OF these, thirty five arrived by the
Belgic March 2, 1892. OF the re
mainder, 125 permits had been re-
turned. 1t is not expected that the
balance can be utilized, owing to OBJ
jectiOns on the part of tbs authorities
at HOngkong. Under the law as
amended by act of the Executive and
Advisory Councils of the Republic,
dated March 19, 1895, 1345 permits
have been issued. There have been
no arrivals as yet.
O. How many Chinese are there
now in the country on six months
residence permits under said law?
a. Including lis now on the quar-
antine grounds, there are 1868.
Rep Hanuna introduced the follow
ing resolution
Whereas, no pay having been fixed
for officers of the House, the following
salaries be paid: Interpreter, $40
day; Clerk, so a day; Sergeant-at-
Arms and Messenger, 50 day.
This called forth considerable argu
ment from several members. Rep.
Robertson thought the scale was too
high for the amount of work to be
performed. The duties OF the Secre-
tary would he less OnOrOus than at
the last Legislature. The same would
apply TO the Sergeant at Arms. Five
dollars a day was more than a first
class mechanic received. An amend
ment advocating pay of Clerk at 81
and Sergeant alarms IS 80 a day
as introduced by the member.

MIR. w. N. Armstrong; Report

In January, 1881, his Majesty Kala
kaua set out on tour around the world,
accompanied by Hon. w. N. Armstrong,
as special commissioner of immigration,
who II ade it his chief object to investi-
gate the whole subject and TO ascertain
the conditions under which foreign gov
ernments would sanction it. His position
gave him exceptional facil lties for collect
ing information, and he made an ex-
haustive and valuable report. In regard
to the Hindoos, he reported that they
were "not suitable or desirable as immi-
grants" OF the Malays, his opinion
was equally unfavorable. The Sultan OF
lahore informed him that his own peo-
pie, the Malays, were too idle and
shiftless TO be depended upon, and that
he was therefore looking to China and
the East Indies for laborers. Mr.. Arm
strong spoke favorably of the Portuguese,
but called attention to the same difficult
ty which confronts us today, viz: "That
while there is population OF only 90, 900
souls, and while it. is estimated that q
population Of 81 0 900 may be comfortably
supported here, there is little or no pub
lie or private land which is ready for inn

Senate.

FIFTH DAY, Wednesday, June 19.
After the opening exercises in the
Senate Wednesday morning the sec
retary read a report from the Labor
Commission calling attention to the
difficulties experienced in attempting
to give statement of the number of
the various nationalities employed by
the several industries of the islands.
The report set forth the necessity of
the work on the regular census begin
ming at once. The regular period for
the census comes in 1896, and by be-
ginning the work year earlier much
needed data could be put at the dis
posal of the country. It was also re-
commended that $4,000 be appropri-
ated for the purpose. The report was
referred to the Committee on Educa-
ton.
The election of members of the
Council of State was the special order
for the day. Previous to proceeding
with the election recess was declared
and second caucus held. When the
doors of the Senate were again opened,
it was voted that the matter of cleo
ton be tabled to be taken up on vote
Of the Senate. It was decided in the
secret session to postpone the election
OF the council until the House of Rep
resentatives had named it's members.
Under suspension of the rules Sena-
tor Waterhouse presented the petition
of the Hawaiian Republican Club en-
dorsing the appointment of w. R.
Castle as minister to Washington.
The petition was tabled to be consid-
cred with the appointments. A mo-
ton to adjourn to 10 o'clock Thursday
was carried, and the special commit
tee on the land law began its labors in
dissecting the Act.
