What May be Expected if
Annexation Fails.
ENGLAND's EYE ON THE ISLAND
II We Don't Take Them She WIN over
turn the Republic and Set upa
New Monarchy.

New York, Dec. 1.-THE downfall of
the Dole government and the restoration
of the monarchy, with Kaiulani, niece
of former Queen Liliuokalani, reigning
under British domination, is the future
predicted for Hawaii by the advocates
of annexation, in the event of the re-
lection of the pending treaty by the
senate, says the Washington correspon-
dent of the Herald.
Leading members of the senate com
mittee on foreign relations appear to be
unanimous in the opinion that when
the treaty is called up evidence will be
furnished to prove that there is some
secret work now going on in this di-
rection. 1t is alleged that the Hawaii
ans now in this city to protest against
the ratification of the treaty are here IN
the interest Of Kaiulani, and that Eng
hsh influence is behind the movement.
Members of the COMMITTEES declare
there is strong evidence, more substan-
tial than this, to prove that the failure
of the United States to take Hawaii
means European domination over the
islands. Just what this information Is,
members of the committee decline to
divulge, but the significant statement
that when the facts were brought III in
executive session of the senate it would
bring to the support of the treaty sever
al senators who are now on the other
side.
1t is on account of this secret lnforma-
tion in possession of the committee that
Senator Davis will oppose the discussion
of the treaty in open session. He will
insist upon its consideration behind
closed doors, and he will be supported
in this proposition by all members of
the committee.

A WARLIkE MISSIONARY.


He Didn't believe in Cursing tho
Enemy.
That the warrior spirit is not con-
fined to soldiers is clearly shown by a
story of a missionary chaplain in Natal,
Rev. George Smith. Mr.. Smith had
been temporarily attached to the army
for the period of the campaign, and dur
ing the whole of the long and fierce
Zulu attack right gallantly he played
his part in tending the sick. giving aid
to the wounded and comforting the
dying.
No one had greater share of danger
than he, and no one, says writer in
Blackwood's Magazine, showed more
soldierly example of treating that dam
ger with calm indifference. Not only
did he perform the duties of his office.
but as every man who could handle a
rifle was sorely needed to defend the
parapet, Mr.. Smith did essential service
by going round the various posts and
distributing reserve cartridges
A good story went round the army in
South Africa bearing on the spirit of
his professional conduct on one occa-
sion.
One of the men, in the heat and ex-
clCemenI OF DaJIle, was curS1ng his en-
emies and using most profane Lam
guage. The chaplain, coming behind,
heard his words, and said:
"You should not speak like that, my
friend. Don't curse themi' Then, SHOW

Eelf-abuse, that vile and pernicious prac-
tice SO common among the youth or our
land, s daily growing more common, and
daily the large number or those whose
health and strength OF body and mind
have been sapped and destroyed by it are
increasing.
This is the principal feeder of our mad
houses, the great producer of nine-tenGnS
OF all nervous diseases, the fruitful cause
OF idiocys insanity in men, and hysteria in
women. That gaUnt, ghastly and fell de-
stroyer, Consumption, thus has its seeds out
too ol ten so~n; as many ana many nope
less victim will reluctantly admit.
Constant, Yet Unknown Losses.
The very worst feature of this vampire
OF disease is that its effects are liable to
break out at any tlTne or lie, and that the
terrible drains and losses OF vital fluid may
be going on for months and even years
without the victim being aware OF 1t until
too late.
Losses at night, accompanied bylascfvious
1reams, are not the worst form. 1t is the
SILENT, CONSTANT AND UNS SEENLOSS-
Els that do their work SO surely and terri

cases proves only to certainty that, day
after day, men and boys are walking The
streets, weak, miserable, emaciated, and
hurrying themselves to a premature grave.
SPERMATORRKGA.
Spermator hoea is the most common of
all forms of seminal weakness. 1t is more
usual In young and middle-aged men. 1t
is usually, but not always, the result of self
abuse, neglected discharges, losses IN the
urine, and usually ends in complete impo-
tency, shrinking or wasting OF the organs,
coldness of the parts, strlnginess and flab-
