purchase of the diamonds in July were
Messrs. Wernheim & Belt, and their
contract expired on the very day this
famous stone was found. Had it been

no diamonds were expected to be found.
However, he promptly placed it in the
hands OF the manager, who did not for

value. The natives at the mine, a an

allowed small commission upon the
diamonds they find. and Jonas share

OUR CABLE.

The question of a cable for the
Islands is coming to head nicely.
Great Britain stands ready to lay
it. knowledge of this fact touches
in the United States the chords Of
popular feeling that invariably
arouse to action. Jealousy is
quickened. What is more effective,
however, is the awakening of the
lions at Washington. They see
that a British cable here would
give decided advantage to a rival
sea power. Mr.. Hatch, Mr.. Thurs
ton and others are adding fuel to
the flames. The agitation is COM
ing to a white heat. There needs
only to be continued the blast on
the furnace. Out of the great
workshop of public opinion and in
ternational policy will come an
American wire for Hawaii.
Newspapers in the States are
very insistent in the premises. One
of the great ones says: The re-
lations existing between the United
States and Hawaii place the cable
proposition substantially upon the
footing of Geographic and mai
communication between States
and between States and Territories.
The United States has expended
large sums to provide means O.
communication between centers O.
population and frontier settlements,
and perhaps no money has been ex.
pended more wisely. Hawaii need:
a cable communication with the
world, and if the United States
does not furnish it some othel
nation will. Great Britain is wait
for the chance.

GOOD HEALTH.
A European Physician Recommends Mer-

European Physician Recommends Mer-
curiaI Frictions For Consumption.
It is often said that there is nothing
new under the sun, and the treatment
of consumption by 'mercurial frictions"
is new proof of the fact. However, II
makes no difference whether mercury
has been tried before or not, as it will
only DO too gladly taken up again if it
is really efi1acious i'll this disease, ovey
which there is SO little control. Accord
ing to the European edition of the New
York Herald, M. Strizower claims, IL
not to have absolutely cured, to have,
at any rate, greatly improved by the
peculiar treatment employed cases OF
the most serious form of the disease.
After the mercurial frictions he says
that the fever decreased, the expectora-
ton lost its purulence, the patient in
creased in weight in two or three
months, and finally the stethoscopic
signs connected with the pulmonary le-
sions disappeared.
He says that other physicians have
met with similar success in tho treat
ment of consumption by mercurial fric-
tons, and that this is not n specific
remedy, but one that can be counted OF
in all cases in which the LESSONS have
not gone SO far as to be incurable. The
efficacy of the treatment is greater than
that of any remedy tried under similar
circumstances up to the present time.
