ferred certain items of the Appropria-
ton bill, as follows:
Page 12, Line 45-Pay of JaiIors,
Guards and Lunas of Prisoners,
$4,000.
Your committee find that $45, 900
was appropriated in 1894, and later
further sum of $4,000 was appropria-
ted, bringing the total amount appro-
priated up to 5000.
''Of this amount we find that there
would have been expended for the
full twenty-four months, had the ex-d
penses averaged the same as for the
previous twenty-one months, about
So, 1000.
while it is not anticipated that un-
der ordinary circumstances larger
sum than $50, 900 will be needed for the
coming period your committee are of
the opinion there should be a margin
of 81, 500, and would therefore recon-
mend the item pass as in the bill.
Page 13-Intertor Department.
''All of the items under this head
were referred.
Upon investigation your committee
find that all salaries under this head
have remained the same as for last
period.

This clerk was formerly called Gov
eminent Land Clerk, at the same sal
airy as is now paid to the First Clerk
In short, all salaries in this depart
ment remain as before, but there has
been a rearranging of titles.
I'VE recommend all items pass as
in the bill"
Too Much Talk.
Rep Kamauoha said that the items
reported on by the committee had all
been under discussion the other day.
The Acknowledgement had then given
information on the matter, and the
items had been thoroughly discussed.
The committee reported in favor of
the adoption of the items as in the
bill. There was no more discussion
forthcoming, and the speaker made a
motion to adopt the report of the COM

tition from Eva, signed by 165 people |
and praying for a new road from Ha-
lava stream to Pukaki. The petition
resolved itself into two subdivisions, as
follows:
from the old one.
Second-Expenditure of Sc, 600.
In regard to the building of a new
road separate from the old one, the
Session Laws of 1892 state who has the
authority to do such work. 1t did not
seem to be within the province of the
House to order new road.

ating $1,000, the committee recon-

Hanuna Mtsinformed.

Rep. Rycroft said that he was sure
Rep. Hanuna had been imposed upon,
especially in the matter of mules and
jackasses of Puma being so peculiarly
constituted as to have no need for
shoes.
Rep. Rycroft (continuing)-I remem-
Der, when l was child, of having been
placed in the same position as Rep.
Hanuna is now. l was very fond of
cocoanuts, and one day / asked how
such delicious fruit was obtained. The
answer came that the trees from which
cocoanuts were obtained were always
full of monkeys. In order to obtain the
cocoanut, stones were thrown at the
monkeys and these poor beasts, having
no ammunition to throw back, used CO.
coanuts. Now you will readily see that
/ was misinfL- med. In regard to the
matter of mules, have owned over
fifty of the animals, and have only had
one that could work without shoes.
Rep. Kamauoha spoke of the scatter
ed settlements in Puma, and moved that
the item pass as amended, giving the.

More Reductions Favored.

Minister Smith moved for a recon-
sideration of the salary of the Deputy
Sheriff of Hawaiian, asking for re-
duction.
Rep. Kaeo said he was not in favor IF
making any change in the salary, as
proposed. The Attorney General seem
ed to be Inconsistent in his recon-
mendations. AT one time he was clam
oring for reduction on account of the
small amount of work in the places
concerned Again it did not matter
whether the work was small or great.
Motion of the Attorney General lost.
Rep. Halualani moved for reconsid-
Grafton of the salary of the Deputy
Sheriff of Eva. There was more at
that place now than during any time in
the past, and there would be still more
il the future.
Minister Smith am personal
friend of the Deputy Sheriff OF Eva,
and should like to see him get raise,
but in my opinion there is no necessity
for it, Motion of Rep. Halualani lost.

s0MN CREDIr.

There is heap talk" about the na-
 tior's credit and about the credit of
 saving that credit. And very inter- esting part of the talk is that which
 ascribes the success of the more or less
 popular loan and the more or less req sonable prices obtained for the bonds to President Cleveland. Before the
 matter is laid aside for good or bad
 it should be remembered that the ad-
 ministration, in making it's original compact with the bankers syndicate for gold for it's bonds plainly intimated
 it's lack of confidence in the people, and it would have done the same thing again had not the demand been so strong
 that it was forced to make the experi- ment which has resulted so well. If the administration had carried out it's original scheme it would have repeated the folly of last February by which a syndicate captured the loan at 104A
 when the bonds were selling in open
 market at 110A.
 It appears to us that very much of the credit for the present condition of
 affairs belongs to the New York World and the Stewart syndicate. The World fought a good fight for a really popu, lar loan and MT. Pulitzers subscription for $1, 100000 of the bonds at 114 is case ofvery emphatic talking by money. The Stewart syndicate made good prices for the bonds and compelled the Morgan syndicate to pay well for its share, which amounted to only about one-third
 of the issue How much patriotism there was in the whole business there is no way of telling, but it is certain that the average price of Ill for the bonds is better than 104 or 1O5 would
 be, and that those who made that price did a good thing for the country.

DE. EDsON,s NEW CTBE

There is at least no mystery about the new cure for consumption announc- ed by Dr. Cyrus Edson of New York According to his promise made some time ago, he has made public all he knows about it. He calls it "aseptolin. ' Its composition is given thus: In one hundred parts there are 97241f of water 2.7401 of phenol and 0O1SS of pilocar. pine-p -phenyl-hydro It is given by hypodermic injection in doses of 50 tc 70 minims at first, increasing to 12o Reports have been made on 21S cases Of these 23 have been discharged as cured; are so far advanced to recov- cry that cure is considered certain; 91 show marked improvement, but have not been under treatment long enough for the physician to predict the result
 3 have resisted the remedy entirely. and i has died under treatment.
 In studying phenol Dr. Edson found that it is found in the secretions 0. man, and that much more is produced during disease than in health He be. lieves that many pathological phenom. ena observed in diseases which are not usually credited to germ infection are the manifestations of the absorption of poisonous bacterial products. If this is true the increased secretion of phenol

1 Atlas upholding the earth has been an Impressive and typical illustration of mighty burdenIbeari but that illus l tration will perhaps now be effectively
 knocked out by the spectacle of the Hon. William J. Mills upholding the burden of Democratic party manage ment in New Haven. When Atlas got fairly under his burden he was all right
 He had naught to do but to stand still and hold on. When MT Mills gets fair ! ly under his burden he will have to
 wriggle and twist in every way to keep l it from getting away from him and dropping from his massive shoulders down on to his sensitive corns. If he succeeds he will be entitled to more credit as a burden-bearer than Atlas
 ever received, for his burden is an ex-
 ceedingly uneasy and slippery one.
 ] There are indications that MT. Mills
 realizes the quality of the burden he has been asked to shoulder, and it may be 1 that he is not anxious to try to surpass Atlas as shoulderer, for he tells those who have appealed to him that if they will help him he will do his part If l this means that he intends to be only
 one of a number who will stand under | the load Atlas will be able to continue 1 to hold his own as a burden-bearer, though Mr Mills and those holding with 1 him would still deserve to be admired l for their might, for there is heavy l load for him and them. But we hope 1 that he will not insist on companions in
 his great labor, but will stand forth and stand up in solitary power and grand eur, thus making himself world-beat- CT if successful and even if unsuccessful
 @ figure for sempiternal admiration and
 sympa thy.
 If MT. Mills concludes to make an at tempt to knock Atlas from hie pedestal 1 and give the world a new emblem Of strength, he will have our best wishes,
 and if he succeeds and, in his own
 chaste and beautiful language, also 1 pluclis "the flower of victory from the | nettle of defeat" We shall not withhold l the praise he will merit. The sight of
 an athlete carrying on massive shoul- ders the burden of Democratic party | management of New Haven and at the 1 same time stepping to "pluck the flower
 Of victory from the nettle of defeat''
 would be worth long journey to see.

at such times is to be regarded as device of nature to destroy the germ infection, Having this in mind, and also the popularity of the creosote treat ment for consumption, he was Inclined to attribute whatever success attends the treatment to the phenol which IS contained in creosote. The next thing was to find some way to apply phenol directly by hypodermic injection, so as to reinforce the quantity already in the circulation and strengthen it to the point of destroying the dangerous germs. He says: The blood is an anti septic fluid when within the body, and one of very considerable power. Its natural resistance to germ infection, though this doubtless varies in different individuals, is great. A comparatively small amount of antiseptic reinforce ment, therefore, may be sufficient to increase that resistance to the desired point.
 This is the theory of the new cure and it is plausible and attractive, as the theories of many other 'new cures" have been. If pr, Edson can put some- thing into the blood that will kill the germs of consumption he will be one of the chief benefactors of the human race That he can will be the earnest hope of all who know aught of the dread disease

designers are preparing some startling novelties. Here is one in this picture; cloth dress of parma violet shade. Hs skirt is slashed at either side of the front breadth. and the slashes are held together by violet velvet straps and jet buckles. At the hem the front breadth only is bordered with astrakan. The jacket bodice has a tiny astrakan vest over which the cloth fronts are joined by buckles, and the jacket fronts are also strapped at the top. Straps ap- pear, too, at top and bottom of the odd sleeves, tho bell shaped cuff parts being edged with fur. To top all this unusu- alness there is a hat that is simply tre- mendous. Won't the woman who dons this rig have looking over when she gets out among folks!
 Other oddly contrived dresses that are now offered are in response to the poster craze, and are strange looking affairs. They are to a large extent of brick-red fabrics. The secret of the whole scheme seems to be to make yourself as ugly as possible, if only you can at the same time rivet the atten- ton you arouse, and make people una- ble to look away no matter how much they want to.
 Now Is the time to secure new cloth dress. Winter things are becoming a little shabby. Get something that will ba fresh and pretty as the spring comes along, and that at the same time will bring you tidily over the months before summery goods are worn. For those who like severe jauntiness, and yet do not care for absolute tailormades there may be a suggestion in a serge dress simply made with belt of leather match ing the color of the cloth.

F. Marion Crawford, the novelist, who has met many Armenians in the East, says of them: "I doubt whether they are the innocent, confding, inoffensive Christians that the American people believe them to be. My experience with them is that they are the sharpest, shrewdest and trickiest of all the East ern people They say in Turkey that it takes ten Jews to equal one Ar menian, and five Armenians to equal one Persian in sharp business dealings. They have many able men among them, and doubt not that their leaders have to a certain extent fomented this trou- ble, hoping that the governments of Europe would interfere. and that Ar menia would be entirely freed from
 Turkish rule" in regard to the Turks, he says: "I would rather trade with a Turk or Jew in any part of the East than with Christian T have the highest respect for Christianity, but the Christians Of the East are not like us- The business men among them are

A Russian proprietor several years ago wishing to learn the direction of flight of the many varieties of birds that visited his estate, caught certain number of these and attached to their tails little tubes containing his address and a request in Russian, French, Ger man and English to let him know when and where these birds should be taken or killed. No reply came until the present year when he received one from an unexpected and interesting source. 1t was addressed to him by Slatin Pasha, a prisoner of the mahdi since the fall of Khartoum, who recently re- gained his freedom and appeared at the Geographical congress in London. He states that in November, 1892, a bird was killed in Dongola which bore tube containing paper, which was brought to him to translate. He was overjoyed to receive letter from Europe, even in this strange method, and resolved if he even regained his liberty to reply to the Russian ornithologist. This he has done.

She can govern. In the province of Snolensk, Russia, there is a little state practically governed and inhabited for the greater part of the year by women The state is about forty miles square and includes a number of villages which formerly belonged to the convent of BesjukoW. The state is known as the Kingdom of Women" because the male inhabitants emigrate at certain time each year to seek work in other parts of the empire, leaving affairs of local government to their better halves The woman mayor presides at the com munal assemblies, where the women discuss with praiseworthy zeal ques- lions of public interest The financial condition of the state is said to be ex- cellent, and the women have all the pin money they want.
