AT the date of our last advices
by the Australia, Congress had
been fully recognized. The
lower house, has a large Repub-
lican majority Of eighty or more,
and is, of course, fully Differed
by them, including all the house
officers and the chairmanships of all
the committees. The responsibility
of all acts passed by it will rest on
them. In the Senate, however,
the case is somewhat different. II
consists of So members, 43 Of whom
are Republicans, 80 Democrats
and 6 Populists, or free coinage
silver men. Of the latter, foul
were formerly Republicans and
two Democrats, but it is altogether
uncertain what stand they will
take on legislation pertaining tc
other matters than such as are
known as the populist platform. L
is, however, quite significant that
in forming one of the most import
ant committees of the Senate-the
finance committee-eight out Of the
thirteen seats in it were given tc
free coinage men.

AMONG the more important
measures introduced in Congress is
one which is likely to become very
popular with merchants in other
countries. 1t is bill presented by
Senator Frye of Maine, to establish
a free port at the eastern end OF
Long Island, about five miles west
of Montauk Point. This will be a
port where ships may arrive or leave
without paying the usual port char
ges or any dues, and where foreign
goods may be unloaded or stored
without paying duties, in other
words a special bonded warehouse
While the vessels will escape
many charges that they now have
to pay, they will still have tc
pay dockage and the use of the
public warehouses. 1t is a plan
that will eventually have to be in
troduced here, with less expense
than at present. For in time Ho-
nolulu must become large distrib-
uting center for this ocean. The
experiment in the United States
will no doubt prove popular one
with those engaged in foreign
trade.

FUEL FOR PARIS.

The Coal From Three Countries Is Mixed
For Domestic Use.
Whenever possible the Seine is util-
lied for the transportation Of fuel to
Paris. Nearly all the great wholesale
firms have their yards in the neighbor-
hood of the river. The railroads also
bring great deal of wood and coal to
the city. As the trains move slowly
through the yards Of some of the lines
Of railroad the passengers can see in
closures filled with cord wood, store
houses of sacks Of fuel; also cars loaded
with these sacks, which all seem to be
of the same size The opening of the
sacks is secured by lacings of cord, and
the cords fastened by leads. Here also
may be seen, stored on cars, large I'M
perforated briquettes for use in engines
and manufactures. Along the embank-
ment Of the Seine may be seen hundreds
Of cords Of wood piled in such regular
order that one could we'll believe, that
the spacings were measured off with O
rule.
The coal is from English, French and
Belgium mines. Sometimes the three
kinds are mixed for use in the kitchen
ranges.
The shops for the sale of fuel by retail
are almost as numerous as the bakeries.
They are always neat, and the wood,
coal and kindlings are arranged in a
most artistic manner The wood is piled
SO as to show the evenly sawed ends.
The samples of coal are arranged in
glass dishes, and in some of the shops,
where orders are taken for tho whole
sale places, wood is arranged in the
windows and decorated with growing
moss and ferns. Indeed the chief aim Of
the French shopkeeper is to make his
shop tractive.-Ladies' Home Jour

In Canton the fshmonger's is most
important trade. The Chinaman is
born fisherman. He also has for ages
past cultivated a system Of artificial
breeding and rearing Of live fish for the
market. In the shops were displayed
live and dead fish. fish fresh and sailed,
smoked and preserved. One variety was
like whitehall, in baskets, graded from
tiny things not half an inch long to
what appeared to be the same fish grown
8 or inches in length. These were sold
fresh sailed and smoked. Shark fins are
delioacy. There were fish notified and
barred, bright and dull, fish Of quaint
ind to us unknown shapes, but fore
most, above all, and everywhere to be
been, were the artificially grown live
fish.
A wonderful creature was this, al
ways appearing to suffer from heat,
gasping ut the surface Of the water for
breath and recalling verdant Green's

How q Methodist Minister Got Into the
War Department Ahead Of His Turn.
A prominent Methodist Clergyman H.
this city fell into reminiscent mood one
evening and gave party Of friends an en-
tertaining account Of the way In which Ito
succeeded IN obtaining an Interview with
the secretary of war in the days of tho re-
bellion.
Visitors to Washington who have ex.
pericnced the annoying difficulties and dc.
lays generally encountered in reaching the
inner Office of u member of the cabinet in
these piping times Of peace can imagine
what such an attempt meant In war times,
when every cabinet officer and particular.
ly the secretary of war, was overwhelmed
with work seven days in the week.
at was matter of the most pressing
necessity" said the clergyman, for me to
go to the front of the Union lines without
an hours delay. l reached Washington in
the morning and soon learned that could
not cross the Potomac into Virginia with.
out n pass from the secretary of war.
"Thinking 1t would be no trouble to get
the pass, inquired where the war depart
ment was and hurried up to Seventeenth
street, where 1t was then located. About
Sixteenth street noticed II line of men
L L
found that this line extended up Pcnnsyl-
vania avenue, around the corner of Seven
tecnth street and down the block to tho
entrance to the war department.
''Men In the line told me they were wait
ing their turn to see Secretary Stanton,
and some of those near the head had ac-
tually held their places "a hours. l was
also told that l must take my place ut the
tail end of that long line, and perhaps I
would reach the department the next day.
THAT would never do for me, and as l
walked slowly down the line l put ON my
thinking cap and thought out scheme
to get into the secretary's Office without
any delay. Before got to the end of that
line had formed plan Of procedure.

package of foolscap paper and couple
of large, official looking envelopes. Fold
ing up several sheets of the blank pepper,
| filled each of the envelopes with them,
scaled up the envelopes and borrowed the
stationer's pen long enough to address
each to The Honorable Secretary of War,
| Washington, ID. c., in big, black letters.
"Thcn, with these envelopes in my
hand, went up to the war department.
| AS soon as | was in sight of the two sol
diers who stood on guard ut the door put
on tho most important air l could assume
and walked so fast it was Just short of q
run.
"As l reached the entrance the soldiers
dropped and crossed their muskets in front
of me, just as had expected them to do,
but l waved the big envelopes at them
and cried out Important importantly
and they stepped aside just as l had hoped
they would.
"Once inside the building it was an easy
matter to find the secretary's office l told
Mr.. Stanton frankly how had got into
the place, and he laughed heartily as he
made out the pass it was SO important
should have. New York Herald.

Grant Allen, writer of pretty chapters
on speculative botany, contends that leaves
become dissected in their efforts to obtain
air and light. Those who have had an op.
portunity of examining our white oak
know that the leaves are lobed just in pro-
portion to the ease by which they can get
light. In other cases the rule is reversed.
The outer leaves are chiefly lobcd, and to
our mind this is the rule that generally
prevails. Some other circumstances than
light must have to do with the lobing OF
leaves. The well known English ivy has
its leaves lobed while it is running rapid
ly up trees walls or fences. When it ceases
to grow in this direction, but sends out lat
eral branches, the lobes disappear. Light
can have nothing to do with this result

As cold weather approaches women
try to devise means for preventing hands
and lips from chapping. An excellent
remedy to prevent chapping is cold
cream. A manicure says that it whitens
the skin more than any preparation. II
has taken the place Of the old time rem.
edy-mutton suet. 1t should be well
rubbed into the skin, and gloves, pref.
erably white, slipped on. The palms Of
the gloves should be slit in several places
to allow the air and prevent cramps OF
the muscles, and the finger tips clipped
off. Vaseline should never be allowed to
touch the hands. 1t turns the skin yell
low and leaves q stain on the nails that
is hard to clear away.
In winter cold water should be used
sparingly. Its action roughens the skin
unpleasantly. Tepid water, with very
few drops of household ammonia and O
good lather of CASTLE or borax soap, Is
advisable If the hands are inclined to
redness, the trouble lies in the way OF
circulation, and slight gymnastics will
relieve it.

A VERY mischievious publication
appeared in yesterdays Bulletin,
concerning the transfer of the cof-
fins of Kamehameha II and III
from the mausoleum to the Kane
hameha tomb erected by the exc
cutors of Mrs. Pauahi Bishop, which
is located in the same grounds, and
perhaps one hundred feet distant
from the mausoleum. The publica
ton Of the interview with Mr.. Da
mon does not lessen the mischie
done, for many will credit the
former, which is full of erroneous
statements, and people are often
more ready to believe such tales Of
the marines than the truth. The
collins were removed solely under
the instructions of the will of Mrs.
Bishop, the last survivor Of the
Kamehameha family. The work
was done in the most quiet,
careful and respectful manner
possible, and in the same manner
as they were moved thirty or forty
years ago at midnight on drays
from the palace premises to the
mausoleum. 1t was done in the pre-
sence and acquiescence of Queen
Dowager Kapiolani who was pre-
sent, and without any objections,
apparently approved the transfer.
The parties engaged in the work
were the most careful and trust
worthy men obtainable, mostly
Kawaiials. No ceremonies of any
kind were required, nor were there
any at the first removal from the
palace grounds to the mausoleun.
1t is true that Kalakaua did
have some ancient ceremonies per-
formed on the transfer of the collins
of some of the lower chiefs to this
same tomb. But no ceremony has
ever been considered necessary or
appropriate on the removal OF
collins from one tomb to another.
1t was conceded to him at his re-
quest, because he claimed to be
descendant of a royal high priest,
and took great fancy for making
all the display possible on this and
other occasions. This was perfectly
natural, and everyone conceded
whatever he claimed to be his wish
even in his refusal to allow the
removal of the two collins which
have Just been transferred.

Captain Whelin was an excellent yolup.
teer officer, and because OF this at the close
OF our late war he received a lieutenant's
commission in the regular army and since
then has won his way to the command of a
company.
Captain Whelin is an Irishman, and like
all his countrymen he dearly loves a Joke.
Some time since the captain was stationed
In far western fort, which was com.
manded by Major Phipps of the same regi
ment
The major is a martinez, and his personal
dignity and self Importance are 30 marked
as TO make him an object Of ridicule when
his back is turned and an object of con
tempt at all times
Captain Whelin, like all his brother Of
dcers, cordially dislikes the major and lets
slip no opportunity Of taking him down
when 1t can be done without visitation Of
military discipline. The captain had been
to Leavenworth, where there Is home for
disabled volunteer soldiers, and on his re-
turn he met the major at the Post club,
where the latter was telling how he had
won battles which Others claimed the glory
Of. Suddenly Whelin said;
II saw man over at Leavenworth who'd
give the world to kick you"
Kick mep shouted the major II de
mand his name, STRIP
Il don't like to tell you." said the tor
mentor.
But demand the namep persisted the
bellicose major.
well, II you insist ON knowing-bur
mark you, major, it must go no further
the man was"-
"Whof Whof"
Don't be in such q hurry, major. The
man was old Sergeant Billy Waters of the
First artillery, who lost both his legs at
Atlanta by the explosion of a shell. Faith,
he'd give all he has, or hopes to have, to b
able to kick anybody"
