heavenly strain, ION earth good
will among men, s'Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as thyself, !" "Glory to
God" and peace among men-on
these hang all the law and the proph-
cts. This is the song the glad
angel sings, this is the message and
promise of peace he brings.
And how the world needed it,
Look at old Rome, the mistress of
the world in government, religion
and fashion. Her temples are char
mel houses of earth dedicated to vice
without shame. Her marts are
filled with the luxuries of the world
and human fesh-for sale. Life
and beauty, body and soul for sale.
Her ampitheaters, marvels of beauty,
stained with blood. Blood, human
blood, soaks in the dust and cries
for vengeance. Men fought with
men and men with beasts and the
State paid the bill. The Christian
heart sickens at such sights as Ro-
man populace delighted in. Look at
Jerusalem. It's temple is de6led
bv man and beast. Oh God! the
earth should be full of thy glory,
but they soon found violence cover
ing the land and gross darkness the
people.
See the Christ weeping over his
own city and sayI, did the world
need the Prince of Peace? All yes
it did. Then thank God for the
angels song.
Has it yet found it's fulfllment?
No! It is but filing, and as yet is
far from full. Cruel inhumanity
stalks abroad. The saloon is open
and mems hearts made callous at
the cry of mother and child. Huge
iniquities deprave men. The pro-
phetic song is not yet fulfilled.
Ten years ago I visited the Ha-
waiian Islands and found commerce
and the civilization of the west.
These Islands have just become
United States soil. Seventy years
ago the brig "Thaddeus" was near
ing those islands with seventeen
persons aboard. They found on
those isles of the sea a people bar
barous, sensual, superstitious and
brutal. Lost to shame the degrad-
ed inhabitants went almost naked.
Women knew not virtue and chill
dren were burned alive to stop
their crying. Youask what wrought
the change. 1 give it you in blank
verse as 1 gathered it when on the
islands.
"Grim superstition with his CORY
rites, had ruled the isles for ages
and the sigh of souls filtered by
tyranous tabu rose pleadings to
mercy seat of heaven; Twas an
swered by the voice of him un-
known, whose spirit notes thrilled
the Hawaiian heart like the low
voice in Jordan's wilderness, that
cleared the way for more radiant
light; It's whitening, blighted sup
erstitious creed, the dreaded tabu
broke the grim gods, hurled from
temples red with human sacrifice,
till the awed people seemed earth S
wonderment- nation religionless,
vet free in soul. Then came the
messages of peace and love, who
taught the pure and holy creed
of Christ. And ne'er were sown
the seed of gospel faith in a more
vigorous and virgin soil.
Such are the victories of the
Prince of Peace. His kingdom
shall extend till not every land
shall swell the glad news but ev-
cry tongue confess that he is Lord.

be successfully disputed for fairness
by merchants of other town for miles
around.
The edition speaks more for Red
wood Falls business men. The paper
goes all over the United States; it
crosses the Pacific ocean at San Fran
cisco, and will be read in the Philli-
pine Islands; it crosses the Atlantic
ocean at New York and will be read
in Switzerland, it will go to Porto Ri
co, and it will be testimonial of the
enterprise, push and progress of Red

up the town.
For the liberal patronage bestowed
upon this edition, which has required
the constant attention of six members
of the GAZETTE staff for period OF
seven days, and half of each one OF
those nights, the publishers return
their warmest thanks, with the assur-
ance that our work for the building
up of the town and county will be as
vigorous in the future as in the past.

SAN JUAN, December 1j.-The Ro-
man Catholic priests at Ponce have is
sued proclamation directing their
people not TO go near Protestants nor
to receive presents from them. and
forbdding them to enter the houses
of Protestants. The priests denounce

General Henry, the military com

THING OF THE PAST.
DR.. S. +. Bishop Comments Upon the
Marconi Transmitter and the New
Brandy Coherer.

Editor Star: Permit me to call at
tention to "a recent article in the Ed
inburg Review upon Ethereal Tele-
graphy," in which things are stated
which appear to have an important
bearing upon the near future of tele-
graphic communication between the
islands of this group. From these
statements it seems probable that
such communication can soon be eff
fected without the use of the costly
submarine cables.
BY means of the "Marconi trans
mitter," and the "Branley coherer" to
receive the messages sent by the
transmitter, messages have been free
ly and easily sent through the air for
distance of ten miles. BY the use of
a vertical conducting wire 26O feet
high. the Straits of Dover can be
crossed by message. No doubt is
entertained that new appliances will
soon be contrived for easily surmount-
ing far greater distances across the
sea. This art of wireless telegraphy
is in its infancy. and is certain of a
great development. Submarine teleg-
raphy will almost certainly become SUI
perttuous between adjacent islands:
between for instance Great Britain
and Ireland, the Orkneys, Shetlands.
Hebrides and the Channel group"
This appears to mean much for the
Hawaiian Islands. Probably within
five years, or much less. numberless
messages will be, as it were, flashed
across our channels directly through
the air entirely dispensing with sub
marine cables.
The article quoted gives at some
length descriptions of the peculiar APP
paratus employed This is of compar-
atively simple nature, evidently cost
ing little for the appliances or for OPP
Grating. The electric waves dart like
light, but invisibly, to the sensitive
receiver, which "actuates delicate
relay by which "A more powerful bat
terry is thrown into the circuit" so as
to imprint the dots and dashes which
are used. These electric rays, like
rays of light, can be either reflected.
or refracted through lenses of pitch or
sulphur, in parallel beams like search
lights, in any required direction. They
travel with the same east, in tempest,
fog or sunshine"
Several of the ablest electrical in
ventors are intent upon perfectng
this new system of transmitting mes
sages. Hawaii is likely very soon to
reap important results.

A New Industry.

From the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
Until recently the United States secured
about all it's pearl buttons from abroad at
a great cost to the people of this country.
Now cut at Muscatine, Ia, there are twelve
factories, employing over 1,500 persons and
running about 5000 saws. The buttons
from these factories now bring better prices
than eastern goods.
How did this great industry, which will
save millions Of dollars to this country,
get started? Much as many others have
An observing man. a Mr.. Benples, saw
that there were thousands of tons OF mussel
shells in the Mississippi bottoms He no.
ticed the pearl-like lining of these shells
and concluded to utilize his discovery. A
small factory was started and from that
has grown the present great industry.
This Is illustrative of the development OF
many like enterprises In this country and
elsewhere. The man who observes, reflects
and plans has the advantage over the one
who simply accepts what he finds at his
hand. Waste materials are lying around
on every side, and he who can find use
for them, II he has the requisite aptitude
for applying thought to practical purposes.
will succeed. Klondikers who hang around
each others mining claims win never make
a big stake. The world offers myriads of
opportunities to those who have eyes to see
and the resolution to seize them.

NATIVE COREAN COSTUMES.
They Wear Thickly Padded Stockings
All Summer.

~ b. Surh in the Roanoke CoIIegian.
Corea is the land of white garments and
black hats. All the men in this country,
except coolies, wear either white or blue
long flowing gowns. Cotton and silk goods
are worn in winter and linen and hemp in
summer. During the last several years a
great deal of silk has been imported. both
from China and Japan, the native article
being of little value
The ordinary street gown generally has
three broad flaps, one of which hangs down
the back and the other two in front overlap
each other, then are tied with a pair of
long ribbons of the same material. The
flaps reach within a few inches of the
ground The gown has very wide and long
sleeves. in each of which one might carry
a baby without its being noticed, and they
are long enough to conceal the hand COM
pietely. while an extersion of the sleeve
reaches almost low as the flaps above
mentioned. Another gown of the same pat
tern, except with shorter ard narrower
sleeves, is always worn under the first.
But persons in the government service, in
Guiding all members of the nobility, wear a
gown having from one to three large flaps
which are broad toward the ends. This
gown. with the exception of its sleeves, is
more like the dress of an American girl of
twelve or fourteen. 1t Is always made of
fine goods, well starched, and on windy
days its flaps and sleeves create quite a
The winter coats and trousers-the latter
always white-are very large and heavily
padded with cotton. A most singular thing
is that the hose worn by Coreans are al
ways thickly padded in simmer as well as
in winter; consequently. every one seems to
have thick and large feet, although quite
the contrary is true.
The ordinary street hats have broad
brims and high crowns. They are made of
fine bar,boo splits and are covered with
fine linen cloth and then lacquered with
black. Hats covered with silk are worn by
people of rank. Persons in mourning for
their parents wear hats large as UNI
bI elias and of similar shape. They are
made of coarse bamboo splits without any
covering of CLOTH 1t is customary for every
Inourner to carry little kempen screen
attached to the ends of two bamboo sticks
held up conveniently in front of his face.
These uncomfortable trappiEgs are intend
ed to indicate mis- regret that he did not
make his parent or parents happier while
they were living. So it Is that for a period
of one or two years he is ashamed of see
Jig the heavens and of looking upon the
beautiful objects of nature. There are a
great many other varieties OF neadwear by

What Pnrixians Breathe.

To the painstaking researches of N. Mi
quel, the eminent French scientist, is due
an almost exact knowledge of the relative
quality of micro-organisms peculiar to Diff
ferent localities in Paris, and the Informal
ton thus presented affords an interesting
study. In the Park de Monsouris, in the
south of that city, he found some $50 of
such organisms in one cubic metre of air:
that Is, in a little more than one square
yard: while In the Rue de Rivoli there were
nearly $500 in one cubic metre; in a room
In the Rue Monge he found $1,000 in the
same space, while in fifteen grains of dust
scraped up in a room there the showing of
heterogeneous reached the figure of q
100000. Specifically considered, therefore,
the solid impurities in the air of a large
city constitute an enormous factor, atmos-
pherically, in addition to the noxious gases
commonly present, viz. carbonic dioxide,
sulphuretted hydrogen and carbonous OK
ide. The solid particles consist largely Of
