Nov it is announced that the tor
pedo boat Faragut, built at San
Francisco, will make 81 knots. This
is not unlikely. Every ship built at
San Francisco has been the best Of its
class in the navy. The Charleston is
the best of the cruisers, the San Fran
cisco is the best of the new, tie
Olympia the best fighting cruiser in
the navy, the Monterey the best OF
the monitors and the Oregon the best
battleship Of the navy. This is
rather interesting," say the New
York Commercial Advertiser. That
is all true. And then to think that
all these fine vessels, the best in ou1
navy, were built il the west, where
the states are undesirable.
This merely corr0berates the AP.

OPINION NOT IN THE COURT RE.
PORTS.

Norman b. Yeatman, the eccentric
young miser who committed suicide
because the General Assembly refused
to grant him a divorce from his half
starved and much-ahused wife, is now
In his grave, but his conduct in life
was such that even In death he is not
entitled to that consideration which is
usually accorded inanimate human
clay. The story his wife told to the
Divorce Committee at Dover was al
most incredible. but It was substan-
tiated by proof, and she had told It
previously to Judge Ball, in the Muni-
cipal Court, and to the three judges
constituting the Court Of General Ses-
siOns of this county. The settlement of
the Chancery suits which she instituted
TO compel his brothers to restore to
her certain properties which she al
legged he had prior to his suicide, trans
ferred TO them to keep her from enjoy
ing the benefits arising from their use,
recalls to the Wayfarer an anecdOte
which Is told of Judge Cullen, since re-
tired from the bench In connection
with the troubles between Yeatman
and his wife he rendered an opinion
which is one Of the briefest ever deliv-
cred on the Delaware bench, and yet it
is not TO be found in any of the vol
umes compiled by Court StenOgrapher
Hardesty.
The judge sat in the Court House
parlor to hear the testimony in the
case. Mrs. Yeatman testified that her
husband compelled her and her chill
dren 10 live on a pint of beans day
When Yeatman took the stand he
was asked II IL were true that he linz
tied his family's daily food supply to
a pint Of beans. He replied in the af-
firmatiye. but qualified the admission
by informing the judges that they had
no idea how 'hlling" a pint OF beans
were II they were properly soaked be-
fore being cooked.
The court was shocked Judge Gull
len leaned over to one Of his associates
and said:
Judge. this man Is nothing more or
less than a d---d miser."
II did not take the court long 10 de-
eide the case IN Mrs. Teatman's favor.

and the Ciliated Epithelium, which are
Just around the corner from the rooms
occupied by the Bayard Legion Demo-

steps in front of the COlumnar Epithe-
lium and watches old TrapeZius do a
hair-raising act or two upon his ira
peze. There is a relaxation of the
zygomatic and masseter and a con-

Hawaii and tho Times.

Honest opponents Of the Hawaiian treaty,
like the venerable LOT NJ. MORRILL, OF Yer
mont, must be blind to the tremendous
changes which have gone on during the
last few decades in the relations OF the
various Governments of the world.
The principle of consolidation, and alb
sorption of the weaker by the stronger, has
been as active and as successful in interna-
tional politics as in commerce ITSELF The
great countries of Europe have made Africa
practically their own, and they are ON the
eve of seeing their dominions In Asia SO
completed that China will be either carved
and divided, or reused to equipping herself
with the strength of self.defence and with
the ambition to share In the rivalries OF
civilization. The once archaic and harm
less coust of the Eastern hemisphere con-
fronting San Francisco will soon be as
alert for the pursuit Of its own interests,
and as threatening to its enemies, as the
side of Europe opposite New York.
1t has happened that the history OF the
United States presents an unbroEen policy
of territorial growth SO enormous and rapid
as to prove that n republic may be able to
seize upon the opportunities for expansion
with the promptncss and vigor OF a
despot. But even IL there had grown
up In our national policy any principle
forbidding us to absorb an island far out
in the Pacific, the modern empires are
being built upon so tremendous scale, and
the means OF Transportation and communica-
tion have been so magnitlcently revolution
lied, that American craftsmanship would
have to throw precedent overheard and
accommodate itself to the progress of
events by taking Hawaii in.
In the light of the politics Of the world
Hawaii is as imperatively part Of our ter
ritorial system as though 1t were within
eyesight of the Golden Gate. The develop
mcnts that have made it desirable for an
nexation will keep it, while unannexed, an
object of desire on the part of every great
foreign country, and hence to us a source
of continual irritation, anxiety, and danger.
Can It he possible that the effort to open
the door at which Hawaii knocks is to be
thwartcd by petty considerations about Ha-
waits nggcrs," or its mixed races, or its
moral habits, or the character of Its Govern
ncn;, or its potential competition with our
industry OF raising sugar beets7
Little as Hawaii Is, it is now to be the
cause OF a remarkable demonstration. 1t
will soon show whether or no narrow,
prcjudiced and t-oglodyto thought on the
part of some of our public men is to check
the march forward of the United States to
It's manifest destiny, and whether or no
American statesmen are to be placed upon
a lower level of enlightenment and patriot
Ism than the statesmen Of other countries.
