The Wilderness of the artists experience
and the immense variety in the subjects
that he has brought together must have
been the very first impression of those who
visited the exhibition that Mr.. Walter Paris
has been holding in his studio all this week.
His collection of water colors includes
drawings from England, Ireland. France
and Holland, and the American series con-
tains subjects from Canada, California,
Colorado, Florida, the District of Columbia,
New York, Long Island. Salem, East Glou-
cester, Ipswich. Eastport, Bar Harbor,
Poland Springs, the White mountains, the
Adirondacks and many other places. Mr.
Paris placed an extremely large number of
works on view. and when he had filled his
studio he arranged an overflow display out
in the well-lighted hallway, and there alone
he must have shown at least fifty water
colors. Among all the creations of his
brush his chef d'oeuvre was the picture
which he painted from bis window on the

POOR ANIMALS.

A few remarks in The Star of
Wednesday evening relative to the
expenses connected with prevention OF
fruit, for now quite a number of peo-
pie have Weakened up to the necessity
of assisting in the work, by subscrib-
ing funds.
The work up to the present time has
been carried on by one young lady who
has had the courage of her opinions
and has not been afraid to face many
unpleasant situations in carrying out
what she was satisfied was a duty
that ought to be done. The work has
also been almost entirely carried on In
Honolulu. But there are other places
besides Honolulu which ought to be-
come interested in humane work.
What has been done is really only a
beginning. Every island and every dis
trict should have some people who
would interest themselves in this kind
of work On the mainland there is
hardly a small city that has not It's
society, and the members keep a strict
animals.
Away from Honolulu there are many
cases of cruelty, but they are never
punished. 1t is nobodys particular
business. People hear of them, lift up
their hands in horror, say ooh, how
dreadful" and that is the end. In
Honolulu, thanks to the effort that has
been made, all cases that occur are re-
ported, and when reported they are
at once investigated.
Hilo, with it's many social and lit
erary societies, it's known culture and
refinement, might well set the example
to the Island of Hawaii by starting a
society for the prevention of cruelty
to animals. There is an ample field
for work in its environs, if not in the
city itself 1t marks the proper devel
| opment of a community when it be-
gins to feel sympathy in practical
way for the poor dumb creatures that
minister to it's wants and to it's pleas
ures,

The news from the Line islands fill
tiers to the rest of the world but slow
ly. There are some queer things done
among them which never get farther
than the gossip of the beachcon1bnrs
when they have a grand fill up of
square face. The Spaniards seem to
have imprisoned an American trader
and then to have let him go again, but
the details of the affair do not come
to hand. In Ponape there is a pleas
ant state of war, and the Spaniards
are in a state of siege. 1t would be ar
excellent thing for the Islands if some
strong power took possession of them
and enforced law among these little
archipelagoes. The missionary. is the
true friend of the islanders, but the
trader is ever against the missionary
and abuses him. and villfies him when
ever he has a chance. The tale recent
ly told in San Francisco about the mis-
sionaries urging on war should be
taken with very large grain of salt.
1t is very easy to spin yarns about
places so remote as the Line islands.

A POPULAR ADMIRAL.

Admiral Schley is the guest of Georgia
at the state capitol. His reception at the
towns along the route from Washington
to Atlanta shows that he has a warm place
in the hearts of the Southern people. In
the affections of the American people he
holds a place second only to that held by
Admiral Dewey. That this is true was
shown at the great reception that was
given to Admiral Dewey m New York on
his return from Manila. The cheering at
that reception for Admiral Schley was al
most as enthusiastic as that for the hero
OF Manila.
The navy department, and, in fact, the
administration. have done all they
could to impress it upon the peo-
pie that Admiral Sampson is enti-
He'd TO the credit for the San
tlago naval victory, but they have not been
able to get them 10 change their verdict.
The people persist in honoring Admiral
schley. and the indications are they will
continue to do so. Where they are 30
generally of one opinion they cannot be
so very far wrong. Admiral Sampson is
regarded as a good and a safe officer, but
it was his misfortune that he was not in
actual command Of the feet when the San
tiago naval battle was fought, and besides.
the popular impression is that he was not
as generous to Schley as he ought to have
been in his report of the battle to the
navy department..
The people of Georgia are glad TO honor
Admiral Schley within their borders. He
can feel assured that though they can
not all take him by the hand and give him
a personal greeting, he has their hearty
good Will, and their best wishes for his
happiness and prosperity.

A Story of Gen, White,

The following story is told of Gen. Sir
George White, now in command of the
British forces at Ladysmith, which shows
the character of the man the Beers have
to deal with: During heavy fighting
amongst the Afghan mountains in the sec
ond war there, there was one engagement
at place called Charassieh in which the
Afghans were specially strongly posted on
a naturally and artificially fortified hill
from whence they poured a very CALLING
fire upon the British troops. The natives
We're seven or eight times more numer-
Gus than the English, and as the position
was to be carried al all costs, it was well
that it should be done as soon rs possible.
Maj. White settled the problem in a very
simple, but very effective, manner. He
took a rifle from one of his men, climbed
a side of the hill where he was somewhat
protected from the fire, and reached a
narrow ledge, along which he crawed I'M
til he rounded a shoulder of rock and came
within range of the Afghans. The leader
of the hillmen was his quarry, and he kill
ed him at his first shot. The daring of the
deed and its results took the tight entirely
OUT of the Afghans. They fed. Maj.
White crawled back in safety.
