Several captains of sugar YES
sells sailing between Honolulu
and San Francisco have laughed
heartily lately. The barkentine
Irmgard, Captain G. H. Schmidt;
the barkentine S. G.. Wilder, Cap
tain Mcneil; the bark S. @. Allen,
Captain Thompson, and the bark
entine s. N Castle, Captain Hub
bard, have all arrived within the
past few days, and the master of
each vessel as he passed through
the Golden Gate has uttered the
following words, much as if he
were speaking password: You'd
like to run across one of them
California mud scows, would
your"
The expression would have
sounded strange and meaningless
to an unknowing person who
might have heard it, but it was
full of significance nevertheless,
for, following in the wake of the
four vessels was the American
bark Holliswood, Captain Knight.
The Holliswood was built on the
Eastern coast and is making her
first trip to San Francisco from
Honolulu, sugar laden. 1t appears
that before she set sail for this
port, Captain knight, who has
command of her, was so I'M
thoughtful as TO say to somebody:
II would like to meet one of
them California mud lscows on
this trip and I'd show her pretty
pair of heels" Sad to relate,
from Captain Knights standpoint,
he had been out from Honolulu
twenty three days yesterday
morning, aud last evening the
Holliswood had not yet been
sighted, while the irmgard, Wild
er, Allen and Castle, all the
California mud scows" he was
looking for, ali OF which cleared
after the Holliswood, and all of
which had sighted the Atlantic
built b rk in making the passage,
were sale in San Francisco bay.
Some of them had almost finished
discharging their cargoes.-S. f.

A Model Mother-in-laM.

In his recently published autobio-
graphical "reminiscences Frederick Lock
er Sampson relates this amusing expert
ence:
Elizabeth, countess Of Elgin, was my
mother-in-law. She was gifted, had
many virtues and few oddities. She
had passion for cold air. In 1850, not
very long after my marriage, she hon
ored me with a visit at 10 Chester street.
You know that through all my life l
have been more or less Of valetudina-
rian, shivery animal / have also
been person Of gentle manners. Well,
one unlucky winter afternoon, on re-
turning from the admiralty, found my
home desolate-cold, empty and COM
fortress. The drawing room was nearly
pitch dark and very cherries, for the
fire had been allowed to go out, and
though the curtains were drawn a Win
dow was wide open. All this depressed
me and constrained me to heave a
wholly languid and only half audible
malediction. l had an unlighted fiat
Sandlestick i'll my hand, and my first act
was to drop out the candle This pro-
duced another, a more audible, impreca-
ton. 1 raped out good round oath
an oath as round as possible.
However, having picked up and re-
placed the candle, continued to grope
my way to the writing table for a
match, but in doing SO l stumbled bad
ly over an abominable foot stool and
dropped candlestick, candle and eXtin-
guisher with "a chatter ON the carpet
| This completely demoralized me,
broke into storm of execration, long,
deep and prolonged, but not launched ut
anything i'll particular. Ingain essayed
to find the table, but stretching forth
my hand in the darkness laid it, not
on the lucifers, but-can you conceive
it?-on the upturned face of my respect
ed mother-in-law, who all this time had
been lying PROSTATE on the sofa. l dc

shall never know-but l should think
not, for she said in the most wide awake,

voice, lis that you, dear Mr.. Locker
This was all she said. She never said

Tho Original Smoker.

The learned Camden speaks of Lane
as the original English smoker. 1t is re-
markable that so much doubt should
have existed among writers even in
Eliza Jacobean times, both as to the
date when tobacco was first received in
this country and the person by whom it
was first introduced. The painstaking
annalist Stow says that tobacco came
into England about the twentieth year
of Queen Elizabeth (1557). But Aubrey,
speaking of Sir Walter Raleigh, says
that ''he was the first that brought to-
bacco into England and into fashion
(1586). In our part Of North Willis
e. g., Malmesbury Hundred-it came
first into fashion by Sir Walter Long.
They had first silver pipes The ordi-
nary sort made use Of walnut shell and
q straw. have heard my grandfather
Lyle say that one pipe was handed from
man to man round the table. Sir Wal
ter Raleigh, standing in a stand at Sir
Ro. Poyntz's parke at Acton, took pipe
of tobacco, which made the ladies quite
it till he had DOME"
The author of a gossipy "TOur In
Wales" (Pennant), in 1910, speaking
about the great houses and their asso-
Citations, says that Captain Price of
Plasyollin, with Captains Myddelton
and Koet, on their return from the
Azores in 1851 "were the first who
had smoked or Gas they called it) drunk
tobacco publickly in London, and that
the Londoners fiocked from all parts tc
see them. Pipes were not then invent
ed. SO they used the twisted leaves, OF
cigars. The invention b usually as
cribed to Sir Walter Raleigh. 1t may bt
3d. but he was too good a courtier tt
smoke in public, especially in the reigr
of James" Again, in the 1869 transla
ton of DIR. Everard's "Panacea" CANT
werp, 1887 it is remarked that cap
tain Richard Greenfield and Sir Francis
Drake were the first planters of it herr
(England) and not Sir Walter Raleigh
