A New Company.

A large syndicate has been formed
in San Francisco and Hawaii, which
will be of great interest to the com
mercial interests OF these islands. A
company has been organized under
the auspices of the Hawaiian Com
mercial and Sugar Company Of Maui
and California, which will run an
independent steamship line between
Kahului aud foreign and local ports,
and construct railroads all ever
Maui. Mr.. Rudolph Spreckels, who
is the deus ex-machina in the new
enterprise was seen this morning and
was very reticent in regard to the
details of the scheme, which he ad-
mitted was perfected already.
The stock capital will be 100000
and it is understood that a large
majority OF the stock has already
been subscribed. Mr.. Rudolph
Spreckels and his company propose
to back the new concern with all
the means at their disposal, and
there can be no doubt Of their
eventual success, which will make
somebody in these islands experience
that stirred" feeling.

Upside Down.

China is queer country. Th. CHI
nese live on the under side Of the
world, and seem to do everything up
side down. Their compass points 10
the south instead Of 10 the north. Men
and women in many ways change
places, the men wearing skirts and
long hair, and the women trousers and
short hair. The dressmaking. more
over, is done by the men, and it is the
women who carry the heavy burdens
and do much Of the hard work.
The Chinese read their books back
ward, and print the foot notes" at
the top Of the page. Their written
language il not spoken, and their
spoken language is not written down.
When they eat dinner, desert comes
fret, and soup and fish end the meal.
Chinese vessels are launched sideways,
and the Chinese mount their horses
from the of side. These queer peo-
pie shake their own hands when they
meet friend, and dress in white for
mourning, and in black on occasions
Of joy, such az weddings. At the lat
ter the bridesmaids are always old
women.

One soft spring morn. while the dawn was gray
Her boy-her only one.
So strong and handsome. so young and gay
Twas hard for the mothers heart to say
Dear Lord Thy will be done
With scream of shot and burst Of shell.
Not hercer did the combat swell
Fer victory was won.
Than when with death deliv'ring knell
From Mount Olympus. thunders fell
On Chronos overthrown.
There. when the smoke had cleared away.
Half folded in the flag he lay
\ lad Of twenty-one
Our only victim Of the fray;
All an enormous price to pay,
4 lite-bu, scarce begun
lis common, all that lives must die;
But the love and hope Of a lifetime lie
Buried meath torrid sun;
And out in the streets the newsboys cry,

Yesterday Cuban insurgent killed

cesded to pile around but not very
close to the doomed white man, who,
we then knew, was at last to be slowly
burned to death not, however, until
every ingenuity of torture had been
taken, and that great prize, his sunny
haired scalp, taken.
Now there appeared squad Of
young boys-mere children Of from
eight to eleven years Of age, apparent
ly-armed with light bows and tiny
barbed arrows, which, by way Of an
educative diversion, the red imps were
to shoot into the feshy parts Of the
captiyes body before the really serl-
GUS work of their elders should begin.
But those bows were never bent. To
give the bloodthirsty cubs fair room
for their sport, the grown warriors
drew off to one side-and our chance
had come
Every man of US already bad his
rifle in position for instant use ; and
now, further concealment being unnec-
essary, rang out Ingram 5 stern com
mand
Steady, boys-Fire -
Twas the last sound heard in this
world by one and twenty braves, for
at that short distance none of US could
miss his aim, and every bullet brought
down a foe.
No need now for the instantly drawn
revolyers no occasion for our mad
dened rush. When the smoke Of our
volley had cleared away not redskin
was to be seen. Every man, woman
and child had disappeared in the con-
tiguous thicket, flying panlc-stricken
for dear life and our astounded but
at last unnerved comrade was safe
safe, and yet unharmed saved tor the
deep imprints left by the cruel deer
skin thongs.
Half sobbing, half laughing, both
alike from pure JOY, he told us of his
capture, effected exactly as Dave In
gram had predicted. His rifle and
revolver were hopelessly lost, but we
found his peerless mare and the other
horse feeding with Indian ponies in
broader part of the valley not far
away In order to mount our whole
party we took, in addition to our ami
mails, twenty of the hardy little beasts /;
for, being no longer on foot, we should
have to traverse the entire length Of
the valley and make sweep Of many
miles around the foothills to regain our
camp.
The guide said that we ought to
slaughter every last one of the remain
ing ponies, but we could net bear to
do this, so contented ourselves by
burning all their equipments, along
with the tepees, rude utensils and
abandoned weapons Of the murderous
band.
Though feeling somewhat vexed by
Challie's mad escapade, We were well
repaid for all our toll and anxiety by
witnessing his boundless JOY on recov-
ering the matchless creature for whose
sake he had so narrowly escaped a hor-
rible death, and whose delight at the
reunion was evidently as great as his
own.
may add that none Of the Tonto-
Apaches ever again ventured to modest
our party.
