FACTS WORTH KNOWING.

If the wrists become tired while one Is riding the
bicycle. authority suggests resting them by
holding the handles with the palms turned up. If
the elbow Joints grow weary and begin to ache SIT
UP straighter. and thus change the angle Of the
arm. Leaning causes backache and a con-
traction of the muscles Of the chest Do not let the
body stifcn when one is on q wheel. 1t prevents
graceful riding and will uncomfortable
strainlng.
An experienced bicycle rider says that one should
take a long breath into the lungs before attempting
10 ride uphill and that only a slow steady gait
should be maintained. Steep inclines should be
walked up, as that rests the whole body after a
steady spin

his children to correct each others grammatical
errors by nning the child who makes the mistake
and giving the fine TO the who detects the blum

results.

The Voice of the Hawaiians
IS. h. Gail.

We publish this morning a memo
rial address by the Hawaiians to the
President, the Congress and the
people OF the United States. 1t is
protest against wrong and an APP
peal for justice. 1t sets forth the
true condition of affairs in the isl
ands and invokes us by our devotion
to the principles embodied in the
Declaration of Independence not to
impose upon Hawaii government
subversive of the rights OF her peo-
pie.
The memorial declares that the
great body Of the people of Hawaii,
both native and foreign born, is held
now in subsection by the armed
force Of so-called republican Gov
ernment-a Government that derives
none of its authority from the con-
sent OF the people and has never
been conducted in accordance with
the principles Of popular govern
ment. 1t protests against the right
Of this armed power to destroy Ha-
wall as nation by surrendering its
sovereignty; and appeals to the
United States not to be partner
in this wrong threatened against
friendly people.
Nothing is asked except justice.
No one can dispute the proposition
stated in the words, "Your memorial
lists respectfully submit that they,
no less than citizens Of any Ameri
can commonwealth, are entitled to
select, ordain and establish for them
selves such forms of govern ment as
to them shall seem most likely to
affect their safety and happiness"
On this indisputable truth they base
their claim to be heard on the great
issue that confronts their country,
and no American can deny the vail
dity OF the principle invoked or re-
fuse the appeal based upon it with
out doing violence to his own sense
Of right and his ideas Of the true
foundations Of government.
The conclusion OF the memorial
is a request that no steps shall be
taken by the United States to absorb
the islands and extinguish Hawaiian
nationality until "the Hawaiian PEG
pie as represented by those citizens
and residents of the Hawaiian ISL
ands who, under the provisions of
the Hawaiian constitution promul-
gated July 7, 1887, would be quail
fed to vote for representatives in
the Legislature, shall have had the
opportunity to express at the ballot
box their wishes as to whether such
project OF annexation shall be ac-
cepted orrejected."
Congress cannot deny an attentive
hearing to this solemn memorial
from people who have been always
friendly to the United States, who
have been for fifty years accustomed
to constitutional government, and
who ask only that we concede to
them the rights which we demand
for ourselves. This protest against
wrong, this appeal for justice, is
none the less potent because made
by the pen instead Of the sword. A
great and generous nation cannot
ignore an appeal made to its justice,
its honor and its devotion to the
principles on which all it's liberties
and grandeur are founded.--S +.
Gail.

They could not be kept out of the
United States any more than they

one State or Territory to another.
They will come here for the simple
reason that they can get better

81 don't think the Senate has the
power without the House to make
treaties with an Independent state.
That question was brought up when
Texas was admitted, you remember"
| didn't clearly remember the ad-
mission of Texas, but l didn't tell
Judge Mcguire so.
"No; the House will have some.
thing 70 say about this matter" he
went on. "For this reason l think
you'll find Congressman more care
full in giving expression to their
opinion. One talks very differently
when he thinks he is merely giving
an off-hand opinion of a matter
about which he is to have no re-
sponsibility."
1t was with the memory Of Judge
Maguire's positive voice ringing in
my ear that l began my interview
with Congressman Loud. And Mr..
Loud, who's as reticent as Judge
Mcguire is outspoken, very kindly
aud promptly gave me lesson in
interviewing.
"Never ask direct question:" he
said, crossing his legs and closing
his smiling eyes.
So | began over again.
Tell me what, in your opinion,
the United States will gain by an.
nexing the Hawaiian Islands"
"The gain will be only CONNER
cial one. I discard without discuss
ing it the question of putting up
Notifications 2l00 miles away. II
we are going to fortify our country
the coasts OF the Atlantic and the
Pacific are the proper points to be
cared for. But the important ques-
ton, to my mind, is the form of gov
eminent we could give the islands.
And if the danger Of giving the suf-
frage to the kind of people there are
in the Hawaiian Islands becomes
manifest, it should outweigh the FIVE
or six million dollars worth OF an
nual commercial benefit we would
got from annexation"
"Do you think that the islands
will be annexed2" | asked.
81 have no more means of know
ing that" responded Congressman
Loud demurely, ethan you. Con-
gress is an exceedingly busy body Of
men, and until question comes up
before the House no one can pre-
tend to knowledge of the senti-
ment that will decide that question.
Besides, there in a tendency to put
into effect that excellent proverb:
Never do to-day what can be put
off till tomorrow"
"a sort of Manana policy" l sug-
gested
"Yes. You know the question
may never come up. Tomorrow
may never come. Or one might be
dead when it did come"
"Mr. Loud, if you could be assured
that no other nation would annex
the islands, that they would remain

EGGS OF COMMERCE.
The Big Business Done in the Interna-
tional Trading in Them.

The Big Business Done in the Interna-
tional Trading in Them.
There is a standard joke in the variety
theaters. SO often told that it has come to
have a familiar sound to the ears of
patrons, concerning a remark made by
city man who heard that eggs had gone
down to a cent apiece. II don't see
how the hens can do it for the price"
Notwithstanding the reduction in the
price of eggs, and the almost unlimited
supply of them III all countries that have
developed their agricultural resources, it
is a fact that the trade in eggs, their
expectation from one country to another,
has become a large item of international
commerce, as some recent figures show.
The case of Denmark is in point Den
marks trade in eggs with foreign coun-
tries, chiefly with England and Scotland,
has grown enormously. Twenty years
ago the annual Danish export Of eggs
was 100000; now it is reckoned at no.
coo. In the same period the impOr-
tation Of eggs into England has increased
number come from Denmark, the two
other egg-producing countries from which
England draws it's supplies being Eol-
land and France. France exports to
other countries 600,OO0,O00 eggs in a
year, and Italy exports 100000 eggs
in a year, chiefly to Austria and Ger
many.
The dairymen of the United States de-
pend chiefly on the enormous home mar
ket, and they have rivals in the export Of
American eggs in the Canadians. Cana
da ranking next to France and Italy and
ahead of Denmark and Holland as an egg
exporting country. Canada exports to
other countries 300,0O0,O00 eggs ia u year.
For the fiscal year Of 1895 the treasury
figures give as the total exports Of Ameli-
can eggs to foreign countries 151.000 doz-
en-, which is equivalent to 1,812,O00 eggs,
In the fiscal year 1896, however, the to-
tai expectations OF American eggs in
creased to $4,000 dozen, or 3,936.O00
eggs, little more than twice as much.
The export figures for this year indicate
a still further increase, and a market for
American eggs is likely, therefore, to be
secured IN what the political campaign
orators are accustomed to CALL somewhat
vaguely the near future.
IT is a somewhat curious facty that the
weight of eggs is materially larger in
Northern than in Southern climates. Ca
madam eggs, for instance, are heavier
than those shipped from the United
States. and eggs in the Northern states
of this country are heavier than those
from the South.-New York Press.

Should The Greeks succeed in reducing

this Is made with dispatch, it is quite pos
