The Popular Hero of Romance.

If one may judge from the novels that
young women seem to read with most
avidity, they do not like lover to be sen
timental, rhetorical or brutal They still
prefer him to be big and strong, but let
him be careful not to put on airs about IT,
There Is nothing which seems to please u
little woman more than to humiliate a
big man, and that Mt his own game. III
she can show him that she can sail n boat,
shoot a rapid, climb mountain OF swim
farther out to sea than he can, she is in a
fair way to accept his humble proifer OF
love and allegiance In tho next chapter.
The prevalent hero is man who can do
almost anything we'll, but keeps 1t to him
self. He must be man of immense re-
serve powers, who exhibits most of them
playing golf or polo or riding to hounds
or running a steam yacht.
II no permits the fact to leak out that
In winter he Is intensely interested In civic
and philanthropic problems, he begins to
get hold ON the affections Of the naughty
lady. What the modern young woman
seems to want In hero Is correct, fash-
ionable and rather frivolous manner Of
life, but inwardly tremendous serious
ness OF purpose. IL no simply has tho
purpose" he IN all right--ho need not do
much, for the world is known 10 bc rather
cruel and cynical toward reformers. The
girl knows that no will fail Of carrying
out his ideal, but she Is determined that
ho shall have her by way Of compensation.

Citizens Attention.

These are days of considerable
anxiety and perplexity to all who
have possessions or other interests
In the Republic of Hawaii, and it
is time that our citizens came to a
mutual understanding on several
important issues. The prospects
for Annexation appear at present
vague and indistinct, and our
destiny cannot be foretold with
certainty. There are those, also,
who still fondly cling to the hope
of a return to the old order Of
things, and who cannot be per-
suaded otherwise, yet this out
look appears far more hazy than
that of Annexation even to the
most hopeful disciples of the
Monarchy. But, fortunately, in
the midst of all this uncertainty
there is solace in the fact that
Buffalo Beer has came to stay and
that patrons of all sorts and
opinions may equally share the
benefits of its invigorating and
sustaining properties. We are
moreover assured that this favorite
brew will continue to be dispens-
ed as heretofore at the Royal,
Pacific and Cosmopolitan Sa-
looms.

There is not man among them who Is

That the facts OF the awful results OF

from all the country, compelled to leave
their homes and their little farms aud TO
be penned up together under the eye OF
the Spanish soldiery, fully Justify the
awful reports that we get from Cuba
from time 10 time is made evident by the
statements OF trustworthy authorities
who have beon on the spot. Indeed. Gen.
Weyler himself has on several occasions
virtually admitted the conditions as re-
ported, but declaring them 10 be neoes-
sity OF war and nowlse calculated 10 in.
fluence him TO adopt more merciful
measures
Now, here is DR.. Brunner, medical in
speotor OF the United States Marine Hos
pital service, stationed in Havana, who
has wade an especial study of the condi-
tions existing in bis section. He finds
that about two-ffths OF the deaths in and
about llayanu-and the death rate Is
enormous-are due 10 the lack OF suiii-
ciept food among the country people,
policy has driven into the city. DR..
Brupner writes i'm the latest report of the
Marine Hospital service of an inspection
Of a pest hole, known as Los Fosos. This
place has been set aside for the country
people sent TO Havana. Los Fosos con
ssts Of a large wooden building, about
100 feet in length and 60 in width. The
building is situated in an Enclosure which
is used for the storing Of carts of tho inu-
nicipality. There were 500 people found In
and around this building. and of that
mum ber over 200 were found lying on the
floor sick and dying. Dr. Brunner saw
no child under 10 years of age who could
bo considered in good health. They were
invariably suffering from some form Of
entcritis or dysentery. The emaciation
of their bodies was startling. This place
is not a hospital, but simply place of
residence for these people, and conser-
vative estimate of the death rate would be
about 10 per day. Ibe number is re-
cruited by fresh accessions from tho coun.
try. There were over 100 children below
the age of 10 years, and there was not one
whose chance for living 30 days under
the existing conditions, was good There
are two other such places in the city where
the same conditions exist.
The condemnation of all these women
and children to death 10y starvation Is
about the most appalling outrage that
our civilized times have recorded.
