POLLYS DANDER UP.
Infiamed at Sight of an Offensive Bird q
Visitor Wore on Her Hat.


A bridal couple who put in several
days recently taking in the sights Of
the capital enjoyed themselves i'm
mensely until the day preceding their
departure. 1t then occurred to the bride
that she had not called upon dear
Fanny" who had been her chum dur
ing her days at the seminary. Now,
Fanny was still enjoying single blessed
ness, and this may have had something
to do with the anxiety of the bride to
call upon her maiden chum George de-
INJURED feebly, but at last consented to
pay formal call The bride dressed
herself i'll fetching gown and placed
upon her saucy head Partisan dream
in the way of hat. The hat was one
of those Undesirable creations of the
milliner's art, a mass of flowers with
bird or two partially concealed in the
foliage, so to speak.
The pair went gayly forth and in a
hotel coupe were soon at the door of
Fanny's residence Their cards were
taken and they were ushered into the
drawing room. While awaiting the
coming of her friend the brides atten-
ton was attracted to a large cage con-
tanning splendid parrot. She chirruped
cooingly to the imprisoned bird and
wished she might take him out of his
cage and caress him. George remarked
that he looked tame enough and sug-
gested the opening of the door of the
cage. Suiting action to the word, he
opened the door and the released bird
calmly walked forth and strutted
about, blinking his beady eyes know
ingly. The bride, with usual calls of
POLL, pretty Polll" coaxed the bird to.
ward her, and poll proceeded to climb
up the rounds of the chair upon which
the lady was sitting and perched herself
upon the arm Of the chair. The parrot
uttered cultural cries of Polly, Polly"
this word seemingly comprising her en-
tire vocabulary.
The bird accepted the caresses. and
apparently all was serene but without
an instart's warning she uttered a
scream of rage G-d few at the l&dy's

The lady finally shook the bird loose
from the flower garden she was wear

dash for the front door, followed close
ly by the bridegroom. Once on the pave
ment, they became somewhat composed
and determined to return to their hotel
TO repair damages They did not tarry
long enough to see dear Fanny "
The sudden wrath of the bird was

FUNCHAL, Madeira, June 16.-The
following de ails have been obtained of
the suicide of Barney Barnato, while on
the passage here from Cape Town:
Barnato, who had been in i'll health
for some time past, seemed to improve
after leaving Cape Town, but he was
never left alone, and some one was con-
stantly detailed to watch him. After
lunch, between and o'clock in the
afternoon, he seemed to be in very good
spirits and was walking up and down
the deck on 4 passengers arm. Sud-
denly Barnato asked his companion to
tell him the time But before he re-
ceived reply, he wrenched his arm
away and jumped overheard. The
fourth officer jumped over after him
Immediately, but he failed to save the
life of the South African cpeculator, as
heavy seas were running, and the ves-
sci was steaming at the rate of II knots
an hour. So soon as possible, the
steamer was stopped, lifeboat was
lowered and pulled to the spot where
the two men were last seen. The officer
was rescued in an exhausted condition,
and later the body of Barnato was re-
covered, floating head downward. His
remains have been cmbalmed and will
be taken to England Oh board the Scott.

PROVISIONS OF THE TREATY
Hawaii to Become a Territory of the
United States.

Hawaii to Become Territory of the
United States.
WASHINGTON, June II. - The Ha-
waiian treaty sent to the senate during
the day is a simple document of six ar
ticles based in it's essential details upon
the treaty negotiated by Hon. John w.
Foster during the administration of
President Harrison. 1t is signed by
Secretary Sherman for the United
States and Minister Hatch, Lorrin A.
Thurston and w. A. Kinney for Hawaii.
The treaty provides that the govern
ment of the Hawaiian islands cede to
the United States absolutely and for
ever all rights Of sovereignty in and
over the Hawaiian islands and their de-
tendencies, and that these islands shall
become an integral part of the territory
of the Uuited States. The government
of Hawaii also cedes to the United
States all public lands, public buildings
and public property of every descrlp-
ton. Congress shall enact special laws
to govern the disposition of the lands in
the Hawaiian islands. All revenue
from these lands shall be used solely for
the benefit of the inhabitants Of the Ha-
waiian islands for educational and 9TH
er purposes. The Hawaiian islands
shall be admitted into the Union as a
territory os the Uuited States, local laws
to be passed by local legislature, but
subject to the approval of the president.
Until congress shall apply the
laws of the United States to the
islands, the present laws of Hawaii are
to govern the islands. The present
treaties and laws governing Hawaii's
commercial relations with foreign ma
tons shall remain in force until con-
gress shall take action. Further immi-
grafton of Chinese laborers is prohibited
pending congressional action, and the
entrance of Chinese from Hawaii into
the United States is likewise prohibited.
The United States assumes the public
debt of Hawaii, but with a stipulation
that it must not exceed "a, ,O00,OO The
treaty before becoming effective shall be
ratified by the proper authorities of the
United States and of Hawaii. No men,
ton is made of any gratuity to Liliuo-
kalani or Kaiulani.

HAD FAITH IN BARNATO
Widespread Ruin Among Small
Investors as a Result of
His Suicide.
Big Spectators Had Inside
knowledge and Disposed
of Securities.
South African Boom Easily
the Greatest SWindle of
the Century.

NEW YORK, June 16.-A dispatch to
The World from London says: Barney
Barnato's suicide must cause widespread
ruin among small investors. They had
pinned their faith to him. The big
spectators, having had inside knowledge
of his serious condition, have either
cleared out or been manipulating his
stock with considerable profit.
Barnato's tragic end has convinced
the public here Of the utter rottenness
Of the South African boom, which now
easily takes rank as the biggest stock
initiation scheme (not to say swindle) Of
the reign. Barnato securities were
quoted l8 months ago at a capital value
Of $50 ,OO0, 900, but in the last six months
they had fallen to about $l6,000,000,
though they recently improved on bet
ter accounts from South Africa.
Was q Heavy Drinker of Late.
No secret is made of the fact that his
breakdown was accelerated by heavy
drinking, which began when the Kaffir
slump started, even before his departure
for South Africa, which was hurried
and private.
His mind showed signs of failing un-
der strain eight months ago, ON which
account he was sent away from Lon
don. There has never been any notable
improvement in his condition since
then.
The collapse has not been as great as
was looked for, because the Reits and
other big South African houses have
combined to keep up prices. At the
same time it has been more than suffi-
cient to prevent newly attempted
boom in these securities, OH which the
Stock Exchange has been reckoning for
few weeks.

PARIS, June 17.-The Journal des De-

especially Great Britain. In these
times of imperial unity there will prob
ably be lively regret at seeing the Amer
lean republic installed in an important
position in the Pacific between Canada
and Australia.

WASHINGTON, June 17.-At the Jap.
anese legation the document filed by the
Japanese minister is not regarded as a
protest against the Hawaiian treaty,
but is considered as request for official
information. There appears, however,
to be no doubt that as soon as Japan is
notified officially of the signing Of the
convention that the government of the
United States will be informed that
Japan expects and demands the recogni-
ton of all the rights and privileges
which she now enjoys under the exist
ing treaties with Hawaii.

directions. The protest of Japan against
the treaty of annexation was discussed
among senators during the day, and the
impression was that the result would be
to make votes for the treaty and make
its ratification possible at this session of
congress. Some senators who talk IA
vorably of annexation say that they
would prefer to defer action until next
December, when more time could be
given to the consideration of the treaty
and the senate be better informed as to
the best policy to pursue.
Kyle Quotes Some Figures.
Senator Kyle, who is one of the most
jealous Of the senatorial advocates of
annexation. said that canvass of the
senate indicated that there were 55
votes certain for annexation. The con-
stitution requires two-thirds vote for
the ratification of treaties, making 60
necessary to ratify. Senator Kyle says
there are fully dozen senators who are
doubtful from whom to draw the five
votes necessary to insure confirmation.
There will be an effort to secure the
prompt report of the treaty from the
committee on foreign relations. to which
{ W:ll be referred. There appears no
doubt that a large majority of the com.
mittee will be found favorable to the
agreement. Of the eleven members Of
the committee eight are said to be COM
mitted to the treaty's support both in
committee and in the senate. Senator
Davis, chairman Of the senate commit.
tee on foreign relations, is very ardent
annexationist, and the treaty in his
hands will be pushed with vigor.
