The Popular Esthetics of Color.

While blue is pre- eminently and over whelmingly the masculine favorite, it is by no means so general 8 feminine favorite. The favorite woman's color, standing at the head of the female list, is red Roughly speaking, of every 30 masculine votes 10 would be for blue and for red, while of every 80 femi- nine votes would be for blue and for red. Red and blue are thus much more nearly equally popular among women than among men. Other relatively marked masculine preferences are for the colors related to blue (plue violet and violet), and other feminine prefer ences are for lighter red Cor pink and, to less extent, for green and yellow. Further, men confine their selections to relatively fewer colors than do women, and, finally, while all men and women alike are much more apt to choose a normal than transitional color and & darker than a lighter shade, yet the tend ency to do so (about the same in the former direction) is markedly different in the latter respect. Of 12 men 10 would choose among the darker colors and only 3 among the lighter for the most pleas ing color, while of 12 women 2 would choose among the darker and among the lighter shades. es.-Professor Jastrow in Popular Science Monthly.

The position which Consul General
Fltzhugh Lee has occupied ri Havana
mas been n most trying one, but never
theless, one in which he has won golden
opinions from the entire people Of the
country. The press. without exception,
even as to party, has accorded him ali
praise, and here is what the Philadcl-
phia North American has to say OF him !:
General Lee has been most cour-
ageous and patriotic, and every
American must feel proud Of him
as lie reads The dispa tcheS which are
forwarded by him to Washington
lie has made q record that Ameri-
cans Will always glory In, and when

TO invite, and, II necessary, to per-
suade General Lee to retain an Office
whose responsible duties he is dis
charging with so much ability and
with such refreshing exhibition OF
the true American spirit"
These are noble words, and the friends
OF Consul General Lee will read them
with no small degree OF pleasure.

y COMslESDAHI.E ORDER.

General Miles has issued an order
which says that mo person. except Off
GERS OF the Army and Navy of The
United States, and persons in the ser
vice of the United States employed in
direct connection with the use, coustruc-
tlon or care OF those works, Will be al
lowed to ?ist any portion OF the lake
ana coast defenses Of the United States,
without the written authority Of the
commanding officer in charge. Neither
written or pictorial descriptions of these
works will be made for Gpublicat3Gn
without the authority Of the. S ceretaly
OF War This is an admirable order and
one which should have been ma de much
sooner. However, it is never too late to
mend, and General Miles seems to un-
derstand that fact.
There has never been any reason why
everybody and anybody should be per
mitted to visit and examine our defenses
and make such drawings and pictures
OF same as they saw proper. On the
contrary these matters should hay. nj
ways been jealousy guarded It will be
recalled by very many people that
about year ago, perhaps less, that two
young Spaniards, one Of them an at
tache Of the Spanish navy, while on "a
lark" In Washington made the boas
that they had visited oil of our fortifi-
cations at points of consequence and
That they carried in their pockets COM
plete drawings Of the defcnses of New
York halbor.
At the time a great deal was said in
public print about the loose manner in
which our Notifications anu arsenalS
were guarded from prying people, and ii
now seems that General Miles is deter
mined that all further cause OF com
plant in that direction shall be stopped
a determination which meets the
hearty approval Of the entire country.

Hawaii to act. and that her condition
is one of constant peril. No doubt
either from <rcbelliun ut home or inva-
sion from abroad. and although 1t does
not say SO in so many words. yet our
| contemporary believes that her only
refuge Is annexation with this couil-
| try, a scheme which 1t mostly heartily
fnvors. It believes really that the most
Threatening danger to the island Is 4

ful OF the fact that other nations look
upon Hawaii with covetous eyes and as
an evidence publishes the following
from the London Pail Mall Gazette:

pre- has left out this large md fer

1t also quotes from the London Times
winch remarked II few days ago, this:
The maritime power that holds
Pearl River and m0,rs its fleets
there possesses tho key to tho
Northern Pacific
Our contemporary, holds that while
these uterances from two Of the leading
newspapers Of England does not nee
essarily indicate q determination to .es-
dablish foot hold in Hawaii yet it does
reveal Il deep-seated wish that such
thing might be done
Besides all this, 1t says that Hawaii
is menaccd. and greatly too, from an
other quarter and it sees in Japan n
new danger for the republic, for the
reason that thousands upon thousands
OF 1ts people are on the island and more
are constantly coming. The people are
,shrewd, Industrious. ambitious and
thirsty for power. They are already de-
handing the right Of suffrage, and If
they get it they will certainly control
the government. The result. as our con
temporary expressed it, would be the
suppression Of American and European
influence in the island, and as far as 1t
could be accomplished, and the domin-
nation Of Hawaii and her naval advan-
tages by an Oriental power. With this
summing up, the Mail and Express re-
minds the administration that its par
~ stands committed to the doctrine
that Hawaii should be under the control
of the United States" and adds that If
this pledge is fulfilled as it hopes
1t will be, Hawaii will be secure to civ
ilization and freedom These are strong
arguments for the Hawaiian interests.
but how about that of this country?
DO the people OF the United States
really desire the annexation OF the EIa-
waiian islands, and are the benefits to
accrue sufficient to repay us for all the
expense and continuous annoyance that
annexation will entail upon this coun-
try?
Our contemporary seems to have ar
Sued mainly from IA standpoint Of In
terest to Hawaii, and says nothing
whatever Of any good to come to the
United States from the annexation
Everybody knows that 1t Will be a ben
elit to Hawaii but what it will do for us
is the question?
