President Arthur would listen

BIRD CAGES, TROPICAL
FRUITS, ETC.

Everyone knows that a bird
in the hand is worth two in
the bush and this is particu-
larly the case when the bird is
a pet canary and a good singer.
Nice birds should be kept in
nice cages and then they will
have no desire to take to the
bushes. We have just opened
up a variety of Bird Cages in
painted wire at $3.50 to $3.50;
and in brass $3.50 to $3.50; in
the prettiest and newest de-
signs imaginable.
The mango season is now
on in all its force and the small
boy is engaged in his yearly
tussle with that luscious fruit.
In former years for every
mango fit to eat the boy
knocked down with a rock he
destroyed eight or ten unripe
ones besides half running the
tree. All this is changed now
since the introduction of our
Wire Fruit Pickers. With one
of these attached to a long pole
any particular mango can be
plucked without hurting the
tree or knocking off the unripe
fruit. By using one of these
handy pickers one gets several
times more fruit in better con-
dition than by the old way of
firing rocks at the tree. They
cost only so cents each and a
child can use them.

At a meeting of the California
Labor Council, reported in The
Call of May 80, the following
proceedings in relation to Labor
Commissioners Fitzgerald's scheme
to send white labor here were had !:
'The report of the executive
committee on Hawaiian emigra.
ton submitted last night to the
council was an able review of the
situation. 1t quoted the severe
penal labor laws in force in the
islands, as well as the stringent
debt laws obtaining there.
"The committee found that und-
er these laws the American who
went to labor there would be liza
BILE to come into practical slavery,
not being free to leave the islands
at any time he desired. This
would be more likely, seeing that
the proposed cooperative system
would necessarily place the Amer
lean in debt for many months,
thereby, under the island laws,
prohibiting his departure.
commissioner Fitzgerald had
explained to the committee that he
believed the Provisional Govern.
ment would suspend it's penal
labor laws in favor of the Ameri.
can laborers; otherwise he would
not recommend any immigration.
He said he would learn definitely
regarding the matter from the Ha.
waiian Government. In the alb
sence of any definite information,
however, the committee from the
labor council emphatically warned
all workmen against emigrating
to the Hawaiian Islands,"

A Partisan Discovery.


All Paris just now, according to The
Journal, is flocking to % Rue Raw.
guam, Montmartre, where, a few days
ago, a most remarkable discovery was
made. In this neighborhood are the
ruins Of the ancient monastery of the
Benedictines and other old buildings
used by the brothers, most of which are
also giving way to the ravages of time.
At 20 Rue Ravignan Nine. Berthelot
keeps a grocery store. She sleeps in a
small chamber in the rear, that at one
time was probably used as al oratory.
Nine. Berthelot, noticing that the tiles
on the floor of the chamber gave forth a
hollow sound as she stepped upon them,
and thinking that cellar there would
be very convenient for her business, sent
for a mason and had the tiles removed.
A fight Of stone steps was revealed,
leading into labyrinth of passages.
The authorities have now taken possess
sion of the place, and systematic in
vestlgation is being conducted. Many
relics have been found, and it is believ-
ed that much light is likely to be
thrown upon the history Of Paris dur
ing the fourteenth century.

What Becomes of Ships Which Sink t.

What becomes of the ship that sinks
In midocean? If it is Of wood, it takes,
in the first place, considerable time fo1
it to reach the bottom. In 100 or more
fathoms of water a quarter of an hou,
will elapse before the ship reaches bot.
tom. 1t sinks slowly, and, when the bot.
tom is reached, it falls gently into the
soft, oozy bed, with no crash or break
ing.
Ofcourse, if it is laden with pig iron
or corresponding substances, or if it is
an iron ship, it sinks rapidly and some
times strikes the bottom with such force
as to smash in pieces. Once sunken, a
ship becomes the prey of the countless
inhabitants of the ocean.
They swarm over and through the
great boat and make it their home. Be-
sides this they cover every inch of the
boat with a thick layer of lime. This
takes time, of course, and when one
generation dies another continues the
work, until finally the ship is so laden
with heavy demonstrations, corals, sponges
and barnacles that, if wood, the creak-
ing timbers fall apart and, slowly but
surely are absorbed in the Waste at the
sea bottom.

Sanitation In Asia.

The appearance OF plague at Bombay
and Calcutta has produced one good
effect at all events. Before its advent
those prosperous cities had come to be-
lieve that they had nothing to learn in
regard to sanitation. There was a time
when they were open to reprOach in
such matters as open sewers, polluted
water, and what not. But by dint of
liberal expenditure of money and energy
they had made matters right and coEld
even challenge comparison with Paris,
Berlin and Vienna. When, however, the
awful eastern scourge, after striking
firm root at the western capital, few
across the peninsula to the eastern, the
public became little doubtful as to
whether sanitary precautions had been
duly observed. First came inquiry, then
dismay, indignation, wrath, as discov-
cry followed discovery. each more ap-
palling than the last. We refrain from
giving particulars. Even to read these
horrors is sickening. But still more
terrible question presents itself. If the
two most cultured and wealthiest cities
in Hindustan are in this dreadful con-
lition, what must be the state of less
favored centers Of population in districts
where there are few whites and many
blacks? Were the plague to penetrate
inland, it would, we fear, find many
towns only too ready for its reception.

DEVOID OF ANIMAL LIFE.
A Ceaseless Struggle Between Fire and
Water In Antarctica.

A Ceaseless Struggle Between Fire and
Water In Antarctics.
1.-THE Antarctic is continental land
unique in the world.' writes General
A. w. Greedy in an interesting article
OH ''What May Be Found at the South
Pole'' in The Ladies' Home Journal.
''1ts desolate shores, rarely approach
able under most favorable conditions,
are laved by an ocean the richest on the
globe in its marine life animal and
vegetable. Seals and whasas in incredi-
BILE numbers abound in it's waters, and
countless sea birds cover with nests and
eggs the few favored land spots which
are free from snow during the brief,
comfortless summer. It is a continent
where abounds no land animal life,
either mammals, birds, insects, spiders
or reptiles. No mammal exists within
600 miles of it's borders It is also de-
void Of land vegetation Except the low
est forms of cellular tissue, lichens
which have been found in two places
only, having neither ferns, Towering
plants, shrubs nor trees.
"Here, however, nature displays her
forces on a scale elsewhere unknown.
Over the millions of square miles of this
austral continent ceaselessly continues a
titanic struggle between the opposing
ancient elements Of fire and water. In
vain the VOLCANOES pour forth streams Of
molten lava and shoot upward pillars of
fire. Welcoming the lava as protect
ing, nonconducting covering of its lower
strata of flowing glaciers, the CONT
mental ice cap resistlessly advances, GER
tain that IN time, when the processes of
erosion have lowered the elevation of
the volcanic craters, its countless tiny
snowfiakes will quench the apparently
unextinguishable fires that now shake
from end to end the continent of An
artica.''
