Reuters kilograms. the Direct. and
Mackey's Gables supply the reading and
commercial public on this side OF the At
lantic with faithful news. They almost
invariably coincide in accuracy and speed
of arrival and the special cablegrams
in the papers differ little from those sent
out by the Associated Press. Ocean COM
munication with the other side has also
received immense impetus through the
Improvement of steam vessels, and the
increase of their size and motive power.
Passengers across the Atlantic are. in
spite of splendid accommodations and the
lessened vibration by Improvement in the
hull of steam vessels. always liable to sea

and invigorates the stomach. and relieves
biliousness and an irregular state of the

clement weather and unusual diet are also
remedied by this useful companion of the

nudity had no place in Mr.. GladstOne's
soul. He was a lion among nen. and
endowed with a granite strength of will
and purpose. rare, indeed, in our age of
feeble convictions"
The Daily News" says: 1--WE cannot
help dwelling upon the opinions which
Mr.. Gladstone held most strongly and
the sentiments which he felt most
deeply because they are the only key
which unlocks his character and his
life. One of his most characteristic
qualities was his personal humanity.
This cannot be explained without the
key, for Mr.. Gladstone did not, in the
ordinary meaning. of the word, under
rate himself. He was not easy to per-
suade. He paid little attention to other
peoples opinion when his mind was
made up. He was quite aware of his
own ascendancy in counsel and his su-
premacy in debate.
ION other questions he did indeed dis
trust his own judgment In politics he
did not; but the secret of his humility
was an abiding sense that these things
were of little Importance compared with
relations between Gods creatures and
their Creator. Mr. Gladstone once said
with characteristic candor, that he had
a vulnerable temper. He was quickly
moved to Indignation by whatever he
thought injustice either to himself or
to others and was incapable of conceal
ing his emotions, for, if he said nothing,
his countenance showed what he felt.
More expressive features were never
given to man.
Mr.. Gladstone's exquisite courtesy,
which. in and out of Parliament, was
model for all, proceeded from the
same source. 1t was essentially Chris
tian. To consider him apart from re-
ligion would be like considering Tenny-
son apart from poetry or Darwin apart
from science. His religion, though it
did not make him gloomy made him
habitually serious. Hence arose the
fiction that he had no humor. This
seems to have arisen from the I'M
doubted fact that he could never be
induced to laugh at anything indecent
or profane, but he was a master of
irony, and could be extremely and bit
terly sarcastic. Moreover, nobody
laughed more heartily over an anec-
dote that was really good. Different
people, unless they saw him often, got
very different ideas of him. He was
many men in one. but he impressed all
alike with the essential greatness of
his character"

NO MORE I DRILL
Mounted Reserve to Turn
Out Once a Year.
Decoration Day Appearance Voted
of Captain Dillingham;.

In accordance with the action taken
night the monthly drills will no long
er be in force. There was considerable
discussion on this point, several of the
members giving it as their opinion
that the drills should be continued, no
matter if the men had to pay for horses
themselves. The company could not
be expected TO be up on the various
commands and be ready for active
service at short notice if there were
not the drills to prepare the men.
However, opinions of this kind did
not prevail and a motion was put that
there should be but one parade by the
Mounted Reserve and that on Decora-
ton Day. Included in this motion was
the idea that the captain commanding
should call for preliminary drills to
prepare for the parade. After DecOra-
ton Day, no more drills should be
held. This motion carried with vote
Of II to 2, some eight members re-
fusing to cast their votes, so displeased
were they with the thought of expect
ing a military company to continue
without drilling
Dwelling upon the subject, Captain
Dillingham; said that the men might
as we'll put their clothes in camphor
bags, and turn in their guns if they did
not intend to attend drills and keep
up the standard of the company. He
referred to the few faithful ones whose
faces could be seen at any drill called
for, and read the riot act to the chaps
who failed to take enough interest in
the affairs of the company to attend
What is to become of the Mounted
Reserve is a question that is worrying
a number of the members They are
aware of the fact that the Govern
ment will no ,onger furnish them with
horses but they are willing to pay for
their own once a month, a thing which
many others do not feel inclined to
do.

Ar Intelligent Horse

MR.. EDITOR:-I heard a story of
to be true, and which for a true story
goes away ahead of anything | ever
heard before. In Cleveland on No. 1
fire engine are three horses, the finest
in the city, a great white horse in the
middle with a black horse on each side.
About a week ago, in responding to
CALL this gigantic trio, whipped around
the corner of Superior street on full
run, and there, right in their way,
stood a little child, still, paralized
with fear. On a dead run, the great
white horse picked up the child. in it's
teeth, catching hold Of the child's
heavy winter coat. and carried it in
that way On the run, distance Of two
blocks, to the place where the fire was,
and set it down as gently as mother
would. unhurt, without scratch. The
noble animal was given a golden
medal. which it wears around its neck
by a blue ribbon 1t is we'll nigh wor-
shipped by the men Of the department.
This was told me by an eye witness.
The driver dared not stop the horses,
for fear the strain on the white horses
mouth might make him drop the child,
so he ran all the way and only stopped
at the fire. The driver was so over
come. he could scarcely get off his seat.

HEEtA LOST,
One of ]. ]. Dowsett's Schooners
Wrecked

News reached here yesterday morn
ing that the schooner Reeia owned
by J. I. DOwsett, was fast going to
pieces on the reef at Punaluu. Captain
Martin had ventured out Of that port
late Monday afternoon with the idea
of going over to Koolau, for load
of paddy. The wind was blowing a
gale and the Heeia, having no ballast
whatever in her, became unmanage-
able. She was tossed about and land
ed on the reef Finding it impossible
to save the schooner, Captain Martin
told the men to save themselves and,
jumping into the sea, they swan
ashore, not one of the crew being lost
or even injured.
The Heeia was insured for 1,500
and as she was a money making boat,
her owner is not very much, if any
thing, out of pocket.
