HONOLULU.

There can hardly be more attractive
dooryards the world over than these
in Honolulu. They are all simple and
in some cases cover six acres. The
poorest laborer in Hawaii must have a
profusion of palms, roses and dozen
varieties of trailing, Towering vines
above his cheap whitewash house or
hut of palms branches. Geraniums
grow twenty feet high, like enormous
bushes, and heliotrop grows in stalks
as high as ones head and is cut away
with hatchet when it gets too luxur-
liant. Mignonette grows in clumps a
yard high along the streets. Sur
rounded as a city homes are by the
trees of the tropics, they give Honolulu
the appearance of a land of country
villas. Even the Chinese and Japan
ese have dwellings and environments
that appeal to the artistic taste. And
why not? Land is cheap; airy, grace
full, pagoda-like structures suit the
climate and do not rob the purse,
while natures landscape gardening
cannot be surpassed. A tiny palm is
thrust into the ground, and rain and
sunshine do the rest. Before one is
tired of waiting, a slender, smooth
trunk springs to agOOdly height and
bears a head-dress of plumes and g
necklace of cocoanuts. st. LOti'

GOLD.

One estimate is that gold worth ten
millions of dollars will be taken out
of Alaska during the year 1897. This
gives some idea of the value of the dis
cOveries there. In 1848 the gold yield
of the United States was $40, 900, 900,
but 1849, as a result of the discoveries
in California, the output was increased
to $40, 100000. Save for the year 1868
the annual output of gold each year up
to 1870 was above the forty millions
mark, 1853 being the banner year,
when $50, 1000, 900 of gold was found.
From 1872 to 1894 the annual yield
only got above forty millions twice
1877 and 1878. The reports for the
other years showed an average of $35, =
900, 900 a year, or up to and including
the year 1894, when the figures were
$50, 500, 900. From 1899 to 1894 the total
gold product in this country was So,
013, 1886, 769, or an annual average fol
that time of $19, 359, ,OO7.
An enthusiastic Western man makes
an estimate of fifty millions worth Of
gold as the Alaska production this
| year, which is an enormous yield and
only equalled or exceeded in seventeen
other years since 1899.

THE DECLINE OF TENNIS. 1T may be
twenty years since Judge Robert Grant
(who was not a judge them pictured
some puppet in tale as playing lawn
tennis, "Vice croquet expelled from
polite society" 1t would seem Just
now as if lawn-tennis too has had its
day as a polite amusement. It is not
dead. 1t still appeals, in some mea-
sure, to the young and active, and ten
mis- tournaments still excite some in
terest, but as a social diversion it is
nearly as dead as croquet, and has
pretty much yielded to golf and bicy-
Gle. 1t served an excellent turn while
it lasted, and no doubt it would have
lasted longer if golf had had not been
developed. How will it be with golf?
Will that too decline in favor as the
novelty wears of, and is twenty years
of activity as much as we can hope for
it? Croquet began in the early sixties,
tennis in the middle seventies, golf in
the eighties.
Our little systems have their day;
They have their day and cease to be.
But happily they don't cease until
something turns up to take their place.
If we ever lose golf (Which has had toe
much money invested in it to be easily
dislodged) we may be sure of getting
something in its place which we shall
like better. -Harper's Weekly.

PREPARING TO HANDLE THE WHEAT
CRoP.-At a meeting of traffic repre-
sentatives of all the Lake Michigan
and Lake Superior lines, held in st.
Paul, it has been decided to reduce the
rate on grain product from Minneapo-
lis to New York from 22I to 20 cents a
hundred during August. The move
on the part of the railroads is under
stood to be made to induce the -four
manufacturers to ship their products
East during August, so that the
enormous wheat crop may be handled
from Stember on.

Ice cream originated in France, but
it is now an American dainty. The
difference between French ice cream
and the American variety is that we
use cream, whereas the French make a
custard and freeze that. Ice cream is
not genuine if it contains either milk,
eggs or cOrnstarch. It must be made
of pure cream to obtain it's proper flavor
and consistency.
