the triumphant termination Of bolo
coup by which, with our aid, an estab
lished government was overthrown
without warrant of right and revo-
lutionary caba1 installed in power for
the purpose of bunkoing this country
into the ultimate act of annexation.
Annexation accomplished will indeed
be good news to the Dole group. 1t
will mean sure guarantee OF protec-
ton to the business and political in
terests of that group, the assumption
of the Hawaiian national debt by the
United States and the final and decisive
overthrow of the native in Hawaii.
That there is question Of right and
wrong involved in this overthrow; that
an American protectorate, and not an
neXation, was all that was necessary to
keep foreign powers from gobbling the
little coaling station in the Pacific;
that the United States government is
saddled with a leprous and undesirable
colonial dependency 1900 miles from
the mainland, cuts no figure with the
members of the Dole group. Annexa-
ton is good for their business and they
are strictly business, good for the
schemes of the Sugar Trust and the
Hawaiian cable patriots in this coun-
try, who, also, are strictly business.
For some time before | went into
the ring with Fitzsimmons," says
that reserved and reticent gentleman,
Mr.. James J. Corbett, Il had been
troubled by dyspepsia and my stomach
was in extremely bad condition. l
haven't had a touch of indigestion
since | received that punch over the
and l have no doubt that the blow
cured me-" Here is suggestion
worthy the careful consideration Of
that most miserable class Of beings,
the victims of dyspepsia. Let them
go to Dr. Fitzsimmons and let that
scientist treat them with his celebra-
ted solar pleXus cure. OF course, like
all remedies, it may kill instead of
cure, but, as a rule, dyspeptic has
small choice between life and death.
At least the Fitzsimmons treatment
ought to have fair trial.

DR.. B. H. Warren Of the Pennsylvania
Game Commission, estimates that there
are more than 1900 foxes, 80, 900 minks,
$1,000 weasels and 5000 wildcats in the

According to San Francisco despatch,
water bicycle, driven by two men
seated tandem fashion, may now be
seen daily on San Francisco Bay. 1t was
built on original lines by F.O. Winquint,
a foreman in the Union Iron Works, and
+. Olsen, who proposes to take it up the
Yukon. Their strange craft is constructed
OF aluminium and steel, and it is said a
speed of eighteen knots an hour can be
made. Seven tests have proved the
claims of inventors and owners. They
crossed the bay on the squally day the
bark Almy was wrecked and are prepar-
ing for trip to the Farallones, thirty
miles out on the ocean.
Riders of experience consider the
height of the handle-bars in adjusting
saddles. Those who ride with ,sthe
bars on level with the saddle usually
find those adjusted horizontally just the
thing. For those who "ride the pedals
and the bars" with bars and saddle
level, a sensible plan is to take sight over
the back of the saddle and see that its
rear elevation, its nose, and the bars are
in a straight line. If the bars are drop
ped below the saddle level, the latter
should be tilted forward with nose down,
so as to maintain this line.
A new use for the various cycle corps
OF the National Guard, aided by volun-
teer wheelmen, has been suggested in
the event OF open hostilities being de-

Spain. The plan is to establish relay

forts along the coast.

Satan as a Landlord.

There is only one spot on the earth
surface that has actually been willed,
decided and bequeathed to his satanic
majesty. This spot lies AZ miles south
of Helsingfors, Finland.
A few years ago Lara Hui1ariene died
in the little town of Pielisjarvi, in the
above named country, leaving consider
able property in the shape of landed es-
tate. How he had come into possession
of so much land no one seemed to
know, but as he was very bad citizen
it was generally admitted that he was
in league with wintahausu (satan) and
that they had many business deals with
each other.
This somewhat startling opinion was
verified when old Huilariene found a
certified warranty deed which decided to
satan all his earthly possessions
The will was to the same effect. The
farlily have repeatedly tried to break
the will, but so far, has been unsuccess-
full Thus the records plainly show
that his sulphuric majesty has a legal
right and title to some excellent grounds
in the near vicinity of Helsingfors.
The simple people of the neighbor-
hood have changed the course of the
road which formerly skirted the HULA
riene homestead and declare that they
would not enter the possessions of Satan
g. Co. for all the money that the three
estates would bring. Pearson 'sWe ekly.

In one of the most fashionable dis
tricts of Paris a mock marriage was re-
Gently planned for the purpose of secur-
ing a rather dangerous lunatic. An at
tractive young person named Mile. De-
laplume was sitting in her boudoir the
other day in a house situated in a
street off the Boulevard St. German.
Suddenly ring came to the door, and
one of her servants, having opened it,
ushered in a well dressed man looking
like a superior sort of valet He told
Mile. Delaplume that he had a letter
from one of her friends, countess, and
as the young woman put her hand out
to receive the missive the stranger
seized her fingers, pressed them to his
lips, and then, sinking on his knees,
made passionate declaration Of love
and offered to marry her.
Mile. DelapIume saw by the mans
eyes that he was dangerously mad, and,
fearful of tragedy, she accepted his
offer with apparent calmness. Then she
invited the strange visitor to the may
Or's Office in order to have the nuptial
knot tied The man accompanied her
with alacrity to the establishment in
question, where a secretary, informed
of the real state of affairs, pretended to
read the civil marriage regulations
The mock bridegroom was then taken
by detective to the police depot under
the delusion that he was bound for a
pastry cooks, there to give an order for
a sumptuous wedding breakfast. The
man was, it appears, formerly employ
ed as a valet by one of Mile. Delap-
lune's friends.-Paris Letter.

A Br.iiIszt Fraud.

A small weekly magazine was started
here II years ago by two hustling young
men. One was editor, the other writer
and paster. " They clipped, extracted
and rewrote. An advertising agent was
employed on a commission of % per
cent, and it was a caution the way he
filed up the pages with black type and
cuts. Some contracts were made for a
month, some for three months, some
for year. The only cash in advance
was half of the commission, which was
paid as soon as the contract was turned
in.
Prosperity peeped from its pages The
magazine rapidly grew fat. In the Sec
ond week the American News company
ordered Il, 600 copies. Money flowed
out like corn from a hopper and not a
cent came in. The writer and paster
went around at the end of the month to
collect from the 80 day advertisers and
what do You suppose happened? He fail
ed to find onel Every advertisement was
a fraud. There were no such names, no
such businesses, no such addresses as
the agent brought in for publication.
He happened to have an engagement in
New Jersey on that fateful day and
never has been seen since. Contracts
supposed to be worth $4,000 were not
worth a cent. The magazine died
