Leonor on Waterfront.

1t was shortly after noon yesterday,
when Ordway & Porter's transfer
wagon with a new sorrel horse attach
ed, might have been seen coming at
break neck speed along King street in
the vicinity of Liliha. The young boy
in the wagon was trying his best to
stop the thoroughly frightened horse.
but all in vain.
Drs. Emerson and Alvarez were COM
ing along near the o. L. & B. Co.'s
shop. Lieutenant Kekai ran out and
warned them of the coming runaway.
DR.. Emerson tried to whip up his horse
but the animal had become used to one
gait and refused to change. Just out
side the Palama grocery, the runaway
passed the buggy, only missing 1t by
about six inches. The driver succeed
ed in stopping the horse when little
past the bridge. No damage.
Drs. Emerson and Alvarez have been
|congratulating themselves ever since.
It was a close shave but DR.. Emerson's
horse went just slowly enough to avoid
a smash up.
The Rt. Rev. Father Leonor came
near having quite an accident yester-
day morning He was in his buggy
near Wilder's wharf close upon the
time of departure of the regular Maui
and Hawaii packet, when his horse
took a notion to back. One of the
wheels came into contact with a hack
and was dished. The hackman cried
out but the fathers horse kept back
ing. Being a clever driver, the hack
man worked his lines and was soon
clear of the danger. Father Leonor
could not see how he was to blame.

Confederate money as the San Fran

Printing Comp1rV go pages.
Mr.. DeLeon has taken n typical family
of the Valley Of Virginia and made It's
home seat and its gradual changes the
feature of his story. "Portraiture," no
says in his preface, has not been es-
sayed though, Of course, known people
have typed the characters. Few who re-
call him will fail to see the lion-hearted,
vet courtly. old colonel of the First Viz
gina in some phases of him kindly
critic christens your Nirginian Colonel
Newcome; and the old Valley grande
dame has a hundred prototypes in her
own state" "AlI the cavaliers"
the author further remarks, did not
ride south Of the Potomac; the grandest
Puritan of the war never saw Plymouth
Rock" This prepares us for the untold
ing of the story in which splendid men
of both armies figure, the prominent
characters on the northern side being a
General Buford and Federal surgeon,
and the central character on the south
ern side being General Calvert, superb
representative Of
1.-THE knightliest OF the knightly race,
Who since the days OF old.

Alight in hearts Of gold"
Other characters are typical young men
and women Of the South and the aristo-
cratic Virginia matron, and even the
faithful slave has a place. All the char-
acters are strongly and well drawn. many
of the situations are very dramatic,
though natural; the movement OF the
story is rapid; the style is polished, as Is
characteristic of everything Dir. DeLeon
writes. and the denouement happy.

observations Of n Philosophical Frier

Observations Of n Philosophical Friend
Of Ours.)
It IS a popularity Of some men, when
once they 20 10 work to make fools OF
themselves, that they must do it after a
very extravagant and outrageous FASH
ion. Not many like what Is neither not
nor cold. but luke-warm. They must
have things very hot or very cold; very
pretty or very ugly; very wise or very
absurd. A small weakness, or little
vice is thought to belong to small ma
tire And nobody cares to be small and
comrnon-a mere second-class devil.
Whether It be owing TO such charac-
teristic of human nature, or to some
other governing law, 1t is little re-
markabls that when men indulge them
selves in Dragging they are very apt TO
be found parading a weakness or glory
ing in their shame. The Plus Aeneas
was a big fighter and fool with Queen
Dido. Frederic the Great treated his
excellence as a warrior and emDer-r as
an ordinary matter, but prided himself
on his poems and compositions, which
were vile. James the First, of England,
with slender merit, counted himself as
an author. and dearly enjoyed any fat
terry of himself as such. Recorded his
tory and the observations of daily life
show us multitucinous instances of the
same sort. Familiarity makes US under
value our easy possesslon-and rareness
imparts special and unreasonable value.
1t Is really often cause OF SINCERE regret
to see a sober, sensible, estimable citizen
off on a vanity, posing In some style OF
distinction or sensation as "a leader OF
society, a la mode, an orator, or some
thing utterly out of his sphere: trans
formed from a good, honest fellow into
veritable pomp and senseless absur-
dity. Poor fellow! And Il is quite as
distressing 70 see one Of the other sex,
whose true beauty and glory is in the
dignity and mature judgment that age
brings, yet parading the charms and
destinations of a gay young thing-never
her own. or much worse for the wear.
