Many OF the enlisted men at Camp NC
kinley detailed al shaping rough lum-
Der Into rough barracks are owners OF
fine private residences at their homes.
Those biased Americans In charge of
Manila have closed the Government
pawnshops and the gambling house
owners are up In arms through the
local spanish papers An effective
blow always has the virtue of indi-
eating where II Is felt the most.
80 eminent and nicely respectable
and rekable a newspaper as the New
York Herald Is authority for the state
mcnt that the girl of the day has final
ly utilized the soldier button as a gar
ter clasp or buckle. These newspaper
fellows seem to be able to find out
about most anything.
That beautiful silk flag which the
First California regiment of Volunteers
had here when en- route to Manila, was
perforated by Spanish bullets In the
assault ON the capital of the Philippines
and the reception II will get upon re-
turn to San Francisco will fairly over
shadow foot ball excitement.
There Is something terse and de-
| cisiye about the Supreme Court opin-
ion here that commands admiration,
no matter what the issue or determin-
alton. Hawaii has often been compii-
mented on her judicial system and the
| reports OF the highest tribunal are
held as Of value in every country.

A friend of the Advertiser who looks
up such things tells that Roosevelt is
also a Georgian, from the side of his
| mother, who was a daughter of Bull

| the Empire State of the South. Judge
Van Wyck. the Democratic candidate
for the Governorship OF New York Is
a native son Of Georgia.
The ease and facility of government
here, the result of course. OF admirable
| organization, Is well illustrated by the
present Cabinet situation. Councils
are temporarily abandoned by the Ex-
ecutive on account OF absence and ILL
ness in the ranks, yet there is not the
slightest interruption In any way in
the conduct of public business.
A correspondent at Santiago writes
that II is easy to understand the ma
tives by the gestures they use In con-
versatiOn. This can be said Of all Latin
and aboriginal races. One Of the dull
lest OF the numerous Uninteresting
books published by the United States
Government Is a treatise on the sign
language OF the Western Indians.
A prominent railway man In the
States says that locomotives are num-
bered because the managers were wor-
cd 1alP IN x.,ith
tons in the old days when names were
bestowed. A similar trial Is borne by
Secretaries of the navy at Washington,
but that should not prevent the rep
resentation of Hawaii in the list of
American lighting ships.

The native women OF the various
nuis are the real thing politically.
They propose each one to have a say
and in manner of organization trans
actions tend towards POpulistic meth
DDS or precedents 1t Is evident for one
thing that they do not believe In man
hood suffrage alone. Perhaps they
could be induced to adopt the A. u. p.
gospel for "a liberal suffrage"

every thirty-three years and three
months is due in November of 1899,
but there will be a specimen downpour

meteors are supposed to be swarms or
collective Jumps Of cold matter rend-

earth's atmosphere. A popular song
will most likely hold out especially for
the showers.
Emperor William Is not sparing in
attention to all domain matters requir-
ing attention. Just now he proposes
to institute or instigate legislation that
shall prevent the formation of labor
unions. This may or may not be the
outcome OF the notable International
congress that was held In Berlin q
couple OF years ago to discuss labor
questions and which was attended by
the best known political economists of
ell countries.
