A Moorish Legend.

A certain sultan one morning COM
manded his prime minister to take a
census of all the stupid people in his
empire and let him have the correct
list. The vizier set to work, and at the
head of the list, which was a very long
one, he placed the name of his sover-
eign. The latter happened to be in a
good humor, and merely inquired how
he came to merit that distinction.
"Sire, the minister replied, II have
entered you ON the list because only two
days ago you intrusted large sums Of
money, for the alleged purpose of buy
ing horses abroad, to a couple of men
who are entire strangers, and who will
never come back again"
lis that your opinion? But suppose
they do?''
Then will erase your name and
place theirs at the head of the list -

says: L am trying in a measure to
repay the manufacturers of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy for the great
good their remedy has done me. For
years l was a constant sufferer from
weak lungs and bronchial asthma. My
rest at night was disturbed by hack
ing cough, so that felt miserable the
greater part of the time. Many rene
dies recommended by friends were
tried, none of which proved suitable to
my case. l did not experience any
beneficial results until l began TIA sing
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. After
two bottle of the large size have been
used 1 am pleased to state, my health
is better than it has been for vars.
TIL soreness has left my lungs and
chest and l can breathe easily. 1t has
done me so much good that l want all
who are suffering from lung troubles,

do not think Swift ever cared for
Vanessa, and much incline to believe
that he was never married to Stella.
Cadenus had his weak points. He did
not disdain to be adored, and Vanessa,
poor thing, was vain and Eighty. The
| wildness which she betrays in her let
tiers can scarcely be matched, except in
that amazing French medieval Latin
correspondence Of the Abbess Heloisa,
not to be rendered by any translation
have seen. But, to use the Gallo phrase,
she was at the expense of it herself. One
is reminded of the line, Apollo flies
and Daphne holds the chase" were it
not that Apollo fingered a trifle too
long to write verses which he had bet
ter have left unwritten. The chase went
ON for how many years? And how did
it end? In despair on the part of Vanes-
50, in heart break and unwomanly deg
radiation. Yes, it is a sad story, but one
must not charge Swift with having act
ed as deceiver, unless he was married
long ago to another woman. Then, in
deed, it will be hard, though not abso-
lutely impossible, to defend him.
None can tell what passed between
tie dean and Vanessa during their last
interview. Scott has given, but upon
the merest hearsay, an account of it,
which, suppose, we could all repeat,
if called upon, by heart Yes, but
would either of these proud persons
have torn down the screen that hid their
misery in such casey Not Swift, we
may be sure. And if Vanessa was thun-
derstrucs with the news of marriage
fatal to her, why did she not publish
that as well as the poem she held in her
possession? The scene is fine piece of
tragedy and will always be told. But,
like many another legend, it fades, I'M
der close scrutiny, into cloudland. -

SEASICKNESS TEST.

Many people have a genuine curio-
sity to know if they would be seasick
in case they should take an ocean voy-
age. An easy way to put the matter
to test is to stand before the ordi-
nary mirror that turns in its frame
and let some one move it slowly and
slightly at first and gradually grow
ing faster while you look fiXedly at
your own reflection. If you feel no
effect whatever from il the chances
are that you can stand an ordinary sea
voyage without any qualm.

SEPTEMBER MOON VIEWING.
A Most Poetic Festival In the Little Jap
anese Island Of Miyaiima.

.
anese Island OF Miyajima.
They were such kindly village and
fisher folk that we soon grew attached
to our neighbors and one old sendo, or
boatman, and his sons were our daily
companions They knew where to take
us III tine morning to see best the beau
! tiful, tangled and rocky shores, sculling
the fiat bottomed sampan into caves and
tunnels and under srched rocks that
framed charming pictures, and we new
er tired floating about the colossal tori,
the spell of which was stronger each
day. The Miyajima urchins made wa
ter carnivals about us, diving and splash
ing tirelessly for the smallest coins, our
sampan surrounded by these lively lit
tie brown frogs, with bright, happy
faces On the night of the great Sep
TENDER moon viewing the sendo took
us far down the shore at sunset, letting
us see two of the ten forts of the is
land 8 defenses, their portfolios and case
ments masked in foliage, and looking
innocently down upon the narrow, tide
swept strait that commands one entrance
to Ujina. Incoming junks seemed to
reef their sails purposely for us, fisher
men cast and drew their nets, and all of
picturesque water life showed until
dusk.
There was only little time of dark
ening grayness and real night before a
pale effulgence showed behind the
heights, and Ochiku San rose, tangled
herself in pine trees branches, scared
clear for awhile as she turned the whole
bay, the temple and the tori to silver,
and then, like true Japanese moon,
barred herself across with narrow cloud
bands. There were quiet groups and
solitary souls muttering under the
breath ON the hill beside the taiko's
hall and looking down upon the temple,
which seemed to be truly floating on a
full flowing silver sea. Every court was
a shining space, and no sound was heard
save the distant hand strokes of those
praying before the shrines
From this vision of enchantment we
went by shadowy streets to our maple
leaf home, where the witchery of NOON
light filled the little glen with more Of
fairyland than ever. At our doorway
little altar table had been placed, and
two plates of the rice dumplings, SYM
bolic Of abundance and prosperity, and
a vase of Lespedeza and the early Eau
tumn weeds" illumined by the flame
of tiny wick Aaid over the edge of
saucer of oil, were set i'll silent offerings
to Ochiku San. A deer stood back in
the shadows, gazing with shining eyes
at this eloquent offering, but nothing
disturbed the homely altar until dawn
showed the saucer burned dry of its oil,
and the greatest moon festival of the
year was over,-Eliza Ruhamah Scid-
more in Century.

STARS HAD A DINNER
BASE BALL CHAMPIONS HAVE 4
PLEASANT TINE.
Banquet at the Hotel-Guests and Adj
dresses-Siuging- Serenading - The
Hall Decorations.

The Star Base Ball Club showed
their friends Tuesday evening that
they were not alone champions of the
diamond, but were champions of good
fellows. All day arrangements were
being quietly made by members of the
team for the event of the evening. The
side dining hall of the Hawaiian
Hotel was engaged and was handsome
ly decorated At one end was the
beautiful silk Star flag. Draped over
the windows and around the hall were
large silk national colors, and on every
side was Il profusion of evergrcens and
floral decorations. The Quintette Club
played in the Eva end of the lanai,
their quarter being enclosed with a
huge American flag.
There was one long table stretching
from end to end of the hall. Every
thing upon it was in white, even to a
half dozen candelebra added for
special light effect. In the center was
the base ball trophy, now the property
of the club. it having been won twice
Everything on the table was set with
paper stars, the idea of Pitcher Hart
At o'clock he following persons
were seated: Captain Conradt, j. O..
Carter, Jr., Lionel Hart, Ernest Wode-
house, Percy Lishman, Donald Ross.
Harry Wilder, Tom Pryce, Duke Nc
Nichol Sam Woods, W. Wilder and
Jack Winter, members of the Star
club; VIM. Lucas, Hay Wodehouse and
j. S. Low, members of the Honolulu
club; Harry Whitney, George Lucas
and Morris Keohokolole, the official
umpires; and the following guests:
DR.. Murray, w. II. Cornwell. Jr., w.
Porter Boyd. Jack Lucas, John S.
Walker, Emil Berger, Ed Stiles, c. a.
Doyle, +. Giffard and Frank Vida.
The trouble began. The toast "Our
Guests" was responded to by Mr..
Doyle. Capt. Conradt of the Star club,
proposed alternately the health of the
different clubs, and responses were
made by friends of the Regiments, the
Honolulus and Kemehamehas. The
toast 1.-The Ladies'" was responded to
by j. o. Carter, Jr. During the even
ing Mr.. Doyle presented two solos with
excellent effect.
About 10: 30 the affair broke up. The
Star men and the music then took
bus and started out serenading the
lady friends of the club. The Stars. by
the way, pride themselves on strong
ladies' auxiliary which has been most
faithful throughout the season. After
most of these had been serenaded it
was a. m, and getting time for all
good stars to disappear. So ended the
most pleasant celebration in ball cir
Giles ever held in Honolulu.

of the average hunter and sportsman Of this
country. Four shots are regarded too
much like pot hunting to suit sportsmen here.
There is said to be a growing demand for a
small bore gun with good penetration up to
fifty yards The gun Is to be a oo-gauge, not
to weigh more than about Ave pounds. and q
repeater is preferred. II is believed that the
desired weapon has been produced at last.
The gun is practically 20-bore from tho muz-
Zle TO within about six inches OF the breech,
and from this point to the breech the interior of
the barrel takes q conical curve which prac.
tically enIarGes It TO a l2-RauRe at the cham
ber. Here the metal parts are of unusual
thickness to give the requisite resistance to
the strain OF the large charge. The cartridge
is filled with wood powder. covered with a
thick felt wad and thin card, and a thick

ferably No 4. although No. 8 Ia used also

This pattern can be, OF course, raised or low

ton OF the Sads. The weight OF the gun Is
six pounds, aud the writer las shot with ono

In mind that the smaller the bore, the more
expcrt must be the hunter, and It Is this one
point which has hitherto and probably will
now initiate against any steady demand for
these small bore guns.
With all these new IDEAS 1t Is interesting to
turn to the gun in the possession OF B. o.
Brush o. Kalamazoo, Mich, built in 1898 by
James Purdy of Prince street, London. England.
