The Late Judge Harlan.
From the Louisville Times.

1t Is difficult to put in print words which
will be appropriate to the death Of Judge
James Harlan. By all the rules which dis
tinguish the superior from the common
place individual, Judge Harlan might only
few years ago have been declared to be
great man. He was a distinguished and
honored lawyer, regarded by most of his
associates as endowed with higher talents
than his eminent brother. a justice of the
Supreme Court of the United States: he
was successful in his profession. and had
been hOnorcd with the highest rewards
which the law bestows on her single-heart-
ed followers, and was not only prominent
but a useful and valuable citizen. But he
was far more than a mere lawyer. He was
a many-sided man. deep student Of mis-
cellancous well as professional litera-
ture. He was a patron of the drama. music
and art, and few men surpassed him in
knowledge and appreciation of the polite
and elegant branches of human knowledge
He was especially fond of young men. ana
took perpetual delight in sharing in their
conversation and partaking In the buoyant
and hopeful feelings and ambitions which
mark the days before the burning sun OF
experience has parched up the fountain OF
their dreams. Sweet-tempered. kindly and
generous. no young man Of his acquaint-
ance anticipated an hour with him without
feelings Of unmixed delight.

Fall In Value of the Currency.
The variations in the currency may be
illustrated by personal experience. The
morning Of my arrival in Havana I got a
IS bill Of Uncle Sans changed into Wey-
ler's scrip. American money is at prem
ium in Havana Of from 9 to 10 per cent
over the centens or gold coin. For this
s. bill 1 received back $11.35 in Weylers
scrip. The casa de Gambia" Of course,
made its shave or profit on the transac-
ton. A day or two before leaving Havana
another $ bill of Uncle Sam was changed
into Cuban currency and brought me $14
This represented the decline in value of
the scrip within a month. That day in
gold 1t was quoted at 80 cents. In the
meantime the cab fare in the coaches or
cabs. which are extensively patronized in
getting around the city, had risen from ~
to 30 centavos. This increase had been by
permission of the authorities. The en-
ployes OF the street car and bus lines were
then on strike, because the companies
had been slow in raising their wages to
meet the depreciation Of the scrip. My
boot black had timidly asked for ten CEN
tavos instead of five as payment for
shine. The newsboy was getting ten CEN
tavos for the daily papers as against five
a month earlier. My barber had received
no increase IN the price OF q shave, and in
most of the small transactions where pay
ment was made in currency there had been
no raise.
The hardship Of this changing money was
felt most by the poor people. They were
paid in scrip. and while prices were going
up their wages did not keep pace with the
fluctuations. They were at the mercy OF
the butchers and the bakers and the other
tradesmen. The stage has long since been.
passed where the working people Of Havana
can buy bread and meat. In the famine
which prevails in the city to a far greater
extent than Is generally known -four and
beef are beyond the reach Of the poor
people. and even the fruits and products OF
the soil are becoming luxuries which they
cannot afford on scrip basis. They re-
sent It sullenly. but they are In the dark
as to what to do.
Their opinions are sometimes expressed
with vividness. One day In q wholesale
market near the wharf / stopped to ask
the price Of potatoes. The potato mer-
chant picked out potato and then held
out nifty centayo. or fifty-cent shinplas-
ter. II that illustration were not sufficient.

Moody Choir Annual Excursion.

The recent sacred concert of the Moody
Choir at Central Hall was a decided sue
cess in every way, and 1t is expected that
a reat sum will be realized for charitable
objects. During the three years Of its ex-
istence this organization has thus distrib-
u:ed something like $1,000. its benefactions
being extended to sucn institutions as the
Young Mems Christian Association. the
Central Union Mission. the Associated
Charities. the Home for Incurables, Mr.
Moody's school at Mortified, the poor
fund and The Star fremen's relief fund.
As pleasant means of closing the season
an excursion OF some sort Is now being
arrangd for. and in order to perfect details
a final meeting of the choir will be held on
Eext Tuesday evening at some place to be
announced Monday.
1t is quite probable that on this excur-
sion Director Foster will request the choir
to repeat the entire program given at the
col cert last week.

THE PACIFIC CABLE COMPANY

The Pacific Gable Company ap-
plies through General HartwelI
for the right to land and maintain
here a submarine cable, but with
exclusive rights only from Ia-
wall westward. The company
also asks for the same subsidy
promised To the Spalding cable.
The men interested in this com
pany are not only large capitalists
themselves, burt they represent
enormous capital. The firm of j.
Il. Morgan x 60. has larger re
sources than any banking firm in
the States. They control more
railways than any other concern.
1t has reOrganiZed successfully

other firm. The simple statement

the great channel through which
vast amounts OF English money
reaches American enterprises. y

General Scrymser is n pioneer in

greatly.
We do not oppose the Spalding
cable project. We believe now, as
we earnestly believed at the time
the exclusive concession was
made to him, that it was an unfOr-
tunate arrangement. An exclusive
monopoly is ''red flag to bull
on the floors of Congress. But the
Government and its supporters
did not realize it, and we were
abused for suggesting that the
project would fail. We believe
that if Colonel Spalding had fol

FOR NEW QUARTERS.
Portuguese Undergraduates Will
Have New Building

The meeting of the Board of Super
visors at Queen Emma Hall yesterday
morning was unusually joyful, what
with the glowing reports from the diff
ferent kindergarten committees, the
approaching opening of the new Kin
dergarten at Eva, and the various gen
erous gifts to the Association.
For some time Mrs Tarbell, the en-
thusiastic Director of the Portuguese
kindergarten, has been hoping for bet
ter accommodations for her numerous
charges. OF her own accord she began
20 collect money for a new building.
Mr.. J. b. Atherton's sympathies were
enlisted and his gift of an Eva bond
for 81 900 makes the new building q
possibility in the near future.
The Hawaiian Board allow the build
ing TO be put on land they hold, Miller
and Punchbowl streets, and their finan-
cial committee will confer with the
following building committee of the
Association: Mrs. A. F. Cooke. Mrs
c. VI. Hyde. Mrs T. II. Hebron, and
Miss Frances Lawrence.
Mr.. Atherton's gift constitutes him
a life member of the Association, and
the heartfelt thanks of all the officers
and members were conveyed TO him
The spirit of giving was felt in the
meeting, and upon the statement that
chairs were needed for the Palama
Kindergarten. Mrs. w. F. Allen, Mrs
s. NJ. Damon and Mrs. VIM. G.. Irwin
contributed the requisite fifty dollars
on the spot. Still another donation
rolled up to twenty dOllars-the gift
of Mrs Hyde. Mrs. Damon. Mrs Bir-
ME and Mrs. WaterhOuse. This is the
nucleus of a sum to be expended in
chairs for the Hawaiian Kindergarten.
Today's event. to the Kindergarten
Association. is the opening of the first
plantation Kindergarten on the ISL
ands Eva Plantation leads in this
new department of Kindergarten effort.
Mr.. w. J. I.owrie, the manager of Eva,
who is enthusiastic in the matter, pre-
sides over the exercises and entertains
the Directors of the Kindergarten As
ISOLATION, and other guests for the day.

who tells them not TO hunger after
more territory. They suspect that
he is not quite sincere, or is ig-

is so crowded with people she is
forced to take in other territory.
He will remember that over a

there is room enough for three
times the present population of
