The kissing of the lantern picture of
President Cleveland shown at the the
alter Monday evening, was in exceed
ing bad taste. That the major portion
of the audience disapproved of this
low means of expressing hatred or
prejudice was evinced by the applause
heard. No matter what the opinions
of individuals here of Mr. Cleveland rs
an individual or even as politician and
statesman, it should never be forgot
ten that he is the Chief Executive Of
n Great Nation and is to publicly be
considered in no other capacity. He
is the President of the country with
which this Republic seeks ''closer po-
litical union" When Senator Tillman
was treated at Chicago as was the pic
ture of Mr.. Cleveland here. he said:
"But three things hiss-a goose. a ser

Il. Levison Ogilvie, who has for soma

school at Hauula, district about

wife. He says that when he went to

The native children learn i'm parroty
fashion, but lack executive ability and
the power of applying principles.
What the Islands have to fear is the
steady encroachment of Chinese and

older merchants out of business and
cause unsatisfactory comparisons to
be made between conditions under the
monarchy and those under the Re

Even with a super abund-
ance of depredatory bugs the
average woman of Honolulu
takes a great interest in
plants. The taste of many
runs to ferns because they are
little or no trouble to raise.
And there is money in it to
persons who wish to raise
them for sale. A plant for a
quarter will be worth two OF
three dollars in year if prop
erly attended to. That's the
reason we included Fern Pans
of English Pottery among
our goods.
They are new here and
have never been seen before.
If you are raising ferns come
and look at our window.
We've lots of things in there
suited to the flower garden or
in the house.
In the celebrated Mon
mouth Pottery we have Stone
Jars holding from a half
gallon to ten. Then there are.
Butter Crooks, Fruit Jars,
Bean Pots, Stew Pans and

SAILING TIME GAINED
QUICKER ROUTE TO THE EQUATOR
~ Uncovered.
Result of observations by the Hydro
graphic once. On the
water Front.

The United States Hydrogra-
phic Office yesterday announced
a discovery that will not only
deeply interest all classes of ship
ping men, but will prove itself
matter of great importance to
them. 1t is a new route from
San Francisco and Sound ports
to the equator which will enable
vessels to make the voyage to the
line in from two to five days less
time than they now take to cover
the distance.
As the route described is one
more frequented than any other
sailing route in the world, and as
the saving of time by the new
course is greater in the winter
season, when the number of ves-
sells leaving this port for the
Horn is twice as great as
it is in the summer sea.
son, shipping firms and
mariners will lose no time trying
the new course to ascertain how
well the photographic officers
have rrckoned. Al present the
voyage is an uncertain one as re-
CARDS time. The Drumcraig,
Captain Bailey, went from San
Francisco to the line in twelve
and one half days, and in 1891
it required forty-two days for the
Clan Mackenzie to make the trip.
The average time consumed in
making the run is twenty-four
days. Many months ago the
photographic Office began to
make observations with a view to
establishing more certain and
economic route, and now it feels
it has succeeded.
At present the run from paral-
lei 35 to parallel Is is made be-
tween meridians 125 and 100. At
parallel Is the vessels generally
sheer in to the east, going for
parallel Is to parallel 5 between
meridians 100 and 115, and then
they take southwesterly course
to the equator between the same
meridians. ..
The proposed route is shaped
much the same as the one at pres
ent travelled, but it lies further to
the west, keeping from fifty to 100
miles further out than the old
track. The vessel will cross par
allel 35 about half way between
meridians l30 and 125 and go
south TO parallel 10, between those
meridians. Then it will point in
shore So as to catch the l20th
meridian and parallel 5 at the
same time and coming about to
the southwest cross the line at
meridian l25.-Chronicle.

s,Mate,, is OnIte Scarce.

"Mate?" repeated tea dealer
while ago. "Never heard Of it. What
is itP"
"a tea grown in South America,
and it is drunk more than Chinese tea
by those people, was the answer of
the man who had asked for the article.
This conversation was repeated in a
dozen offices, till at last, concluding
that the tea trade knew nothing Of it,
the man betook himself to the Uru-
quay Consulate. A man was found
there who for years had resided in the
Parana region, and who, when told Of
the quest, laughed, and pulling a lit
tie bag from under a table said: 81
am not surprised. guess this bag
represents the sum total of mate in
this part of the city. There is no
trade in it, for only few people who
have lived in South America aud have
become attached to the tea, buy small
quantities for their own use"
He opened the bag. 1t contained
perhaps twenty pounds of leaves,
ground coarse, of dead green color,
having 40 perceptible smell and of a
slightly bitter taste. 81 got this" he
went.on partly for myself and partly
to send to the Atlanta Exposition.
And you know, we cannot infuse the
tea as we do Chinese ; it must be drunk
boiling hot-not allowed to stand
else it becomes insipid. So we have
these cups and tubes" and he took
from his desk q wood she'll cup like a
gourd, holding scant half pint, and
tube about foot long. Mate costs
about two cents a pound down in

meditating what to do, when alto
gether unnoticed I allowed the Shiny
object to drop into the water. In
moment saw big water snake make
dive for it. At the first lunge it
caught the neck of the eel squarely
between the teeth and I could see it
sink its ugly looking fangs into the
cells flesh. I waited to see develop
ments. With its grim hold on the cells
neck the snake, quick as it takes to tell
it, wrapped its sinuous body around
its antagonists neck in an effort to
squeeze it to death. Tht body of the
eel was too sleek, however, and the
snakes coils, despite all it could do,
would slip down into the water. Time
and time again it tried to squeeze the
life out of its antagonist, never for an
instant releasing its hold on the cells
neck, but the body of the latter was
too sleek for it and every time it
would slip down. Finally the hook
broke and the eel made good its es-
cane. "-Tndianapolis Sentinel.

A Detective Mystery

"The most mysterious affair ever
knew in detective circles" said a well
known sleuth, twas a case in the
West. A detective had become famous
by reason of his success in ferreting
out heavy~robberies. 1t seemed that
none of the professionals could escape
when he once started upon their trails. /
After time all such cases were
placed in his hands. The first one
that he could not discover the thief
was big bank robbery, then after q
year or two another, then another
his reputation was suffering, but it
was still good, as during the same
period he was successful in other diff
cult cases. He was taken sick with
fever, and while delirious told how he
himself had perpetrated the robberies,
describing every movement in detail.
When he recovered, it was claimed
that his failure to unravel the myster-
les had caused the raving confessions,
but other men we're put upon them
and they failed to find any clue what
ever. The detective retired and lives
in elegant style, but whether or not
he was as successful in eluding law as
in enforcing it will probably never
really be known. Washington Star.

Where Pennies are Coined.

It is not generally known mat az
the minor coins Of base metal, such as
pennies and nickles, are made at the
Philadelphia mint, and that nearly
100, 900, 900 pennies are coined here
every year. This large number is oe-
casioned by the fact that thousands of
pennies are lost annually, and that
the Government has some difficulty in
maintaining a supply. The profit of
the Government on their manufacture
is large. The blanks for making them
are purchased for 81 thousand from
a Cincinnati firm that produces them
by contract. Blanks for nickels are
obtained in the same way, costing
Uncle Sam only cent and q half
apiece.
Gold is coined in Philadelphia and
San Francisco. Not enough of it
comes into the mint at New Orleans to
make the coinage of it worth while.
Gold pieces are the only coins of the
United States which are worth their
face value intrinsieally. A double
eagle contains $40 worth of gold with
ont counting the one-tenth part COP.

Curious Claim to distinction.

A Scotchman with curious claim
to distinction has just died in Edin-
burgh. His name was William Cairns,
and he had read through every line of
the twenty-four thick volumes of the
Encyclopaedia Britannica He was
brother of the late Principal Cairns,
head of the United Presbyterian Col
lege of Scotland, and after devoting
the best years of his life to teaching
he settled down in Edinburgh with his
brother, and found congenial work in
preparing an index for the 'Britar-
MICA. This necessitated the reading
of every line in that ponderous work.
