girl, Lucy.
Guarantees were offered by the Six

to the Mission directly she arrived in
San Francisco, and she could remain
there as long as she desired. He gave
every assurance TO the Ministers that
no harm could be fall the young woman
These assurances were endorsed by Goo
Kim, who suggested to the Attorney
General that if there was any doubt in
the minds of the Government officials
as to the treatment she would receive,
they might send a member of the police

Hoods Sarsaparilla. d ~ d HAO

Merit in medicine means the power TO
cure. Hoods Sarsaparilla possesses actual
and unequalled curative power and there
fore it has true merit. When you buy
Hoods Sarsaparilla, and take it according
to directions, to purify your blood, or
cure any of the many blood diseases, you
are morally certain to receive benefit.
The power to cure is there. You are not
trying an experiment. 1t will make your
blood pure, rich and nourishing, and thus
drive out the germs of disease, strengthen
the nerves and build up the whole system.

The cirrus is high cloud formed in
the upper stratum of air by pieces of
cloud rising from the lower stratum
and being torn by the upper wind
Electricity produces marked effects on
clouds. but its action is not understood
Rain is caused by air charged with
moisture being condensed on rising
The air rises most in the belt of Gains
at the equator, and has there also plenty
of moisture from the warm eocean.
Hence we find on sea and land in this
region much rain. Another instance is
when air from the ocean filled with
moisture is driven up the mountain
sides by the winds and so condensed
The amount and distribution of rain
fall are important matters in this con-
nection. The amount in the Hawaiian
Islands is from % to 100 inches year,
some few places having more. If the
lesser amount is well distributed it is
sufficient for a good deal of Vegetation;
but if it falls all in one or two showers,
the climate will really be very dry. The
best amount for one shower is from
quarter to half an inch. If it comes
slowly the ground can absorb an inch
in twenty-four hours.
Temperature is another matter that
ought to be studied in our schools.
With a suitable thermometer the maxi
mum and minimum temperatures may
be taken with little trouble. The effect
of the winds may be noted on the tenn
perature map by drawing a line above
for the trade wind and below for the
Kona. You will find that the lines OF
maxima and minima draw together
when the trade blows and diverge when
the Kona blows.
The amount of sunshine may be meas
ured by allowing the sunlight to shine
upon blue print paper in a semi-cylin-
drical tube through pin hole. The
paper, after washing, may be fastened
in book kept for the purpose.

MINNESOTA SETTLING UP.

Progress in the settlement of Mime
sofa was never so marked as at pres
ent, the sales of State, Governmtnt and
railroad land being very heavy. This
is especially true of the counties in the
northern part of the State For the
year ended April Both last the acreage
of land sold is: State lands, 23.936.1s
acres. Government lands 156, S90.37,
railroad lands 390,715.61, making a
grand total of 571 .542.16 acres. In
each of two. counties more than $4,000
acres were sold. Placing the valuation
of these lands at as low an estimate
as So an acre, it will add $1,714,626 to
the taxable value of Minnesota's real
property. OF course. to that figure may
be added the value of improvements.

this the tears streamed down her poor
wan cheeks. Another woman was

The prosperity of Egypt depends
upon an undiminished supply of water
in it's great river; but any civilized
power occupying the land bordering
upon the White and Blue Niles would
undoubtedly derive from those streams

doing would imperil Egyptian agri-
culture Therefore the power that
holds Egypt should hold the Soudan
also.
Now it is just possible that this ar
gument proves too much, for the miles

reasonably entertained in regard to

these events, of these sufferings. An
experience that would have corrupted

left his moral fibre sound. He speaks
out heartily, with the most earnest
conviction, and therefore with power
to convince. The Khalifa's despotic
grasp is weakening; he cannot hold the
Sudan much longer; some civilized
state must take it in hand-thus Slatin

mind, fall into an argumentative form.

THE PERMANENT EXHIBIT.
Meets With the Approval of Citi.
ems Encouragement Offered.

The article in this paper yesterday
regarding the possibility OF having a
permanent exhibit of the products of
the Islands in one of the rooms in the
Judiciary building seems to have struck
a popular chord. The scheme received
the immediate support of a majority of
the Government officials and the merch-
ants around town
One gentleman whose interests in the
country extend beyond his hat band
called on Commissioner Marsden in the
afternoon and complimented him on the
scheme, and then offered to start a
subscription with liberal donation in
order that the necessary funds could
be raised. The objections offered by an
evening paper to the scheme were gem
orally pooh-poohed. A Californian on
a visit here said such exhibitions did
more for his State than all the other ad-
vertising. People could find a good
healthy exhibit by taking train or q
steamer and visiting points, but such
excursions were not always convenient
or agreeable. Such an exhibit would be
of interest TO people after they have re-
turned from the volcano and they
would have better impression than
could be obtained by going out into the
country.
There seems now to be no obstacle in
the way OF the exhibit. The Govern
ment is in favor of it and so are the
merchants. Possibly it may be taken
up in the meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce today.

Steamer Taken in Her Place.

Yacht Abandoned ana Japanese
Steamer Taken in Her Place.
In a letter from member of the
yacht Coronet party received by the
steamer Miike-Maru Wednes-
day, the following information was re-
ceived relating to the trip of that vessel
along the coast of Japan:
ION July 7th the CoTonet started from
Yokohama, drifted around for five days
with only a little breeze and head
winds. Captain Crosby broke down
physically and we gave up the plan to
take the Coronet through the Island
Sea. We chartered in her place little
Japanese steamer, 155 feet long with a
speed of Il knots. This made us safe
against currents that would have been
dangerous in the yacht
After we had all seen enough of
Kyoto we came down to Kobe and start
ed from there on our steamer on July
10th.
"At Beppu, a little village on one of
the islands where foreigners had never
been before our sailors took advantage
of us and came back to the ship fight
ing drunk. This was also true of some
of the officers.
arthur Curtiss, James and the rest
of the female members of the Coronet
party were forced to load up revolvers
and run the boat, keeping watch all
night on the bridge and in the engine
room, for fear that something might
go wrong

and see that she was safely handed over
to the mission.
Lucy paid close attention to the re-
marks of the Chinese Representatives.
and when asked as to her wishes re-
marked that ''it was all right to talk
that way in Honolulu, but that she
knew the Cinnamon better than to be-
lieve it"
The case has aroused great deal of
feeling here among all classes of Chi
nese. The members of the United Chi
nese Societies here insist that she go
back to her husband in compliance with
the Chinese law. The case is held IN
der advisement.

Adieu Prof. Dresslar :

Professor Dresslar, who was forced
to return to the States ON the Ala
media yesterday on account of the ill
ness of his wife, was given big fare
well by teachers in the Summer School
and others. They covered him with
leis said aloha" hundred times over
and, as the steamer was hauling away
from the wharf, sang aloha De" and
Kiss me my darling" The last song
was especially noticeable for the in
crease in volume of the voices. 1t is
certain that Professor Dresslar will not
forget Honolulu very soon.
