ACURIoUs RELIC
In the National Museum At
Washington.

In the vast collection Of relics ga
thered W the Government from every
quarter Of the world and deposited in
the National Museum, there are few so
interesting as the celebrated feather
cloat, once the pride Of Kekuaskalani,
one Of the mightiest war chiefs Of the
Sandwich Islands.
In 1919, after the abolition of idol
tary, that chief rebeiled against the
reiguiug king, and attempted to re-
establish the ancient religious Gus
toms Of the islands. He was slain,
and upon his shoulders was a cloak
made Of red, black aud yellow feath.
ers, arranged in a curions design. It
was four feet long, twenty.three
inches wide at the top, and eleven
and one half feet at the bottom.
The yellow feathers were taken
from an exceedingly rare bird, called
the 90 (Molioa nobiiis) This bird
must be captured alive, aud after the
two yellow ielthers, found one
under each wing, were removed, the
bird was given its freedom So
highly were these feathers priced
that piece Of uankeeu, valued at
ST. so, was given in exchange for FIVE
OF them. The king used to regard a
small bunch Of them as full payment
of the poll tax levied upon his
subjects.
1t is estimated that it must have
taken one hundred years to collect all
the feathers necessary for this cloak,
aud if their value be placed at 81 so
for each FIVE feathers, the whole cloak
would be worth 81 .ooo, 900. or as
much as the purest diamond in Q, en-
VictoIia's crown.
This robe of State, alter the battle,
fell into the hands OF the conqueror
and became the crown property OF
King Kamehameha Ill
In lS4I, Commodore J. H. Aulick
visited the islands and the King, de-
string to do him honor, and to show
his friendly feelings towards the
United states, presented him with
this ancient cloak, in some respects
the chiefest OF his treasures,
The grandson of Commodore Auliek
placed the cloak on exhibition at the
National Museum, and there it will
probably permanently remain under
the care Of this Government.
1t is kept in a large glass covered
case in a room opening of of the ro-
tunda, and would probably receive
but passing glance from the visitors
unless they should stop to read the
account of its significance and history
posted at one corner OF the case.
No doubt If it were offered for sale
at auction IN city where nobody
knew what it was it would be inn
possible to get FIVE dollars for it, yet
it represents the patient efforts OF
large number of people, hunting the
treasured yellow feathers through
period Of FIVE long dyuasties.
It has no intrinsic value of itself
yet among the thousands OF objects
displayed in this Museum, it is doubt
full if any other single exhibit has
had so remarkable and romantic a
history as this robe of state OF the
ancient chiefs and kings of the Sand.

Pleasantville is improving faster than
any town in Atlantic County. Elegant
new houses are being built in ev cry
direction, and plans for many more are
being drawn. Many inquiries are being
received from different parts of the
Country, concerning our beautiful town,
and it's natural advantages, and the
people are evidently coming this way.
Now let our citizens rise to the occasion,
and make such needed public improve
ments as are imperatively demanded.
No wasteful extravaganza, but better
roads, better sidewalks, and rightful
encouragement to some company that
will furnish q practical system of electric
lighting for our streets and residence.
Pleasantville is growing-not as the
result Of q "boom" only to collapse after
a mushroom existence-but upon solid
basis of enduring prosperity. Let US
forget all past differences, and all hands
unite in a new Pleasantville and it's
interests.

The County seat.

AS will be seen from the proceed
ings Of Council. Monday evening, the
resolutions favOring the removal OF
the County Seat were unanimously
passed, and the Committee Of Citizens
appointed last year will renew their
efforts to get the bill through the
Legislature. In consequence of
'smothering" the bill in Committee
at the last session, the people of At
lantic County were deprived OF an
opportunity to decide whether they
wanted the County Seat removed or
not. We think things will be differ
ent' this year. Pleasantville asks
no unfair advantage. All she wants
is "a fair field and no favors." Let
the people decide at a fair election
and she will cheerfully abide the re-
suit.

The men who are engaged in double
tracking the Camden & Atlantic Rail-
road across the meadows, between
Absecon and Atlantic City have had a
vexatious engineering problem to deal
with which has caused considerable
delay and great expense. 1t was deep
"quicksand" that seemed to have no
bottom, and which swallowed up
thousands of tons of gravel as fast as it
could be dumped from the trains At
last hard bottom was found at a depth
of sixty-fye feet by professional well
borers, who were employed by the rail
road Company to 'ssOund" the premises.
More gravel was dumped overheard and
the settling" seems to be nearly at an
end. The roadbed had to be made safe,
at whatever cost, and the Company
have succeeded at last in making it 60.
The borings disclosed the fact that
beach sand was plentiful at a depth of
sixty feet, thus showing that the ocean
once rolled there and that the beach
front was probably at the high land
along the western edge of the meadows.
Biologists know that the whole coast
has been slowly rising for hundreds and
perhaps thousands of years, and the
simple process of sounding" for hard
pan for a roilroad bed proves it beyond
q doubt.

the land are large paper and saw mills,
the town of Weymouth and part Of the

The land company failed after selling
thousands of lots to New York, Brook

large shoe and brick works. The tract
has been in litigation for years.

Pleasantville to be a City.

The Borough Council has taken the
first step, and wisely we think, to have
Pleasantville Incorporated into City.
The advantages of that form of muuici-
pal government are many, and largely
outweigh those that may be urged
against it. We believe a very large
majority of our citizens are in favor of
it, and have yet to hear single indivi-
dual who has declared against it. The
Mayor and Council. and nearly or quite
all other citizens being in favor the
Legislature will undoubtedly pass at an
early date the bill to be asked for by the
Committee of Council and citizens.

Postmaster General Gary expresses
pleasure at the widespread comment
upon his recommendation for the estab-
lishment Of postal savings banks and
invites further discussion of the subject.
"If we all put our heads together" the
postmaster-general says, "the right plan
can be devised, and that is what the
country wants."
It is not often that q cabinet officer
manifests such disposition to learn the
desires of the people on matters of legis-
lation connected with the development
Of his department. Postmaster-G General
Gary's request for q widespread popular
expression Of opinion on the subject
should meet with hearty response on the
part of the people. The newspapers
have already performed their duty in the
matter. Labor organizations, too,
have very generally given consideration
to the subject and with almost un-
animous voice have asked for postal
banks 1t remains now for other
bodies, especially those representing the
commercial interests of the country, to
give their approval to the agitation, in
order that congress may be assured that
the sentiment of all classes in the nation
is virtually united in favor Of the early
establishment of these much-needed in
stitutions for the safe-keeping of the
savings of persons of moderate means.
1t may be true that the commercial and
business classes OF the country have not
such an immediate personal interest in
the establishment Of postal savings
banks as have the wege-earners. But
the commercial portion of the COM
munity cannot afford to manifest in
difference to the well-being and content
ment Of the working population Of the
country. Let them do what they can to
promote good feeling at least BY giving
consideration to propositions like that
tor the establishment Of postal savings
banks, the only object Of which is to do
something for the people, whoseinterests
are only too rarely the subject of intel
li&ent consideration BY law-makers.-
