THE following is said to have
been written by boy of IA sum-
mers, who was compelled by his
teacher to write an essay on the
mouth: .Your mouth is the front
door of your face. 1t is the aper-
ture to the cold storage of anat-
omy. Some mouths look like
peaches and cream; some look like
a hole cut in a brick wall to admit
a window or door. The mouth is
the hotbed for toothache, and the
bunghole for oratory. The mouth
is the crimson aisle to your liver.
1t is patriotism's fountain and the
toolchest for pipes. Without the
mouth the politician would be
wanderer on the face of this earth,
and go down to an unknown grave.
1t is the grocer's friend, the ora
tors pride and the dentists hope.

others in Jail. 1t is temptations

MAN FOUND DEAD.
Body Found Near the D. & r. O..
Tracks East OF Town.

About seven o'clock this morn
ing as the section men on the d.
d r. G.. started east they found
the body of man lying on cinders
at the side of the track near the
end of the east yard, about one
mile east of town. Deputy Sheriff
Mooney was notified and the body
was brought to Deibert's under
taking rooms, Life was extinct
when the body was found, and the
indications were chat he had died
some time last night.
There had been washout at
that point and the railroad men
had been filing it with hot cinders
from the yards. The theory is
that the man lay down there to
keep warm and was n phyxiated
by the gas from the cinders, his
body being roasted or cooked I'M
til the skin dropped from his back,
legs and feet where they were next
to the cinders, although his cloth .
ing was not burned.
He is a man of medium height,
will weigh about 165 pounds, and
supposed to be about forty years
of age. In pass book in his
pocket was found the name of
John Dolan. Coroner Baker will
hold an inquest this evening at 7

SUGAR STATISTICS
Hawaiian Stocks in San
Francisco Sustained.
No Changes in Raw Sugar Market =
Refined Has q Fair Demand
Situation Unchanged.

The following sugar statistics are
deduced from the Financial Letter OF
December 1st:
The share market is rather quiet,
still prices have been well sustained.
The sugar stocks are strongly held.
and closed at 921a. The directors OF
this company meet on December ~,
and, We are informed on good author
ity, declare a dividend payable Decem-
ber 20. The amount will be SOC per
share per month.
Hutchinson's crop for the campaign
ending September 30 was 500 tons in
excess of the estimate. 1t was very
lightly dealt in during the week.
Makaweli was weak. 1t sold down
to 4i& and closed at 45. The reports
from the Islands are very satisfactory.
Onomea was quiet. 4 few shares
were sold at 3iR.
Paauhau closed at 80.
Honokaa was very quiet. Ii sold at
33h and 339s. This company Is in a
very prosperous condition. II Is eX-
pected that its dividend will be in
| creased to so cents next year.
Hama sold at Ok.
In regard to the statistical position
of the sugar market, Willett & Gray,
November 23. said:
stocks in Europe, $500 tons,
against 529,144 tons last week, and
COS, 129 tons last year. Total stocks of
Europe and America. 74l,742 tons,
against 73S,5i2 tons last week, and
739 1872 tons last year at the same un-
even dates and 732,O59 tons mt even
date OF October LIST last year. The ex-
cess of stock Is 2,6l0 tons, against an
excess OF 6.2S9 tons last week, and de-
flciepcy OF 102,3l1 tons December %,
1895"
In regard to the raw sugar market,
they stated:
with the exception Of few small
sized parcels OF the several grades raw
sugar the business OF the week has
been devoid of any interest. More bus
iness would have been done II more
sugars for sale, but the receipts con-
tanned sugars only which had been
previously sold for arrival. Quotations
remain unchanged at 4Ac per pound
for 96-degree test centrlfugals. and all
indications point to continued firm
and steady market now that foreign
beet sugars appear to have touched a
solid bottom at 9s for SS-degree analy-
sis and slightly improved, notwith-
standing that Mr.. Licht raised his es-
innate OF the beet crop 100000 tons.
This increase was foreshadowed in our
mail advices given herewith. and Is of
no special importance on crop condi-
tions. Sugars are at such low level
now that few tons more In expected
supplies have lost their influence, while
any considerable reduction In crop tens
would exert an influence at once"
With reference to refined sugar, they
state:
with exception Of isc per pound re-
duction In crushed sugar by the A. S.
X. Co.. who alone make this grade.
there IL no change to note In the quo
tations for refined sugar. The demand
has been fairly good"

RACE LINE DRAWN

uons on ,hs TT nspovr

There are many stories OF race preju
dice told on the army transport War.
ren In regard TO the distinctions mad,
between the white and colored officers
and the manner In which their messe.
were served. Soon after leaving Sar
Francisco, 1t was evident that at least
in the dining saloon the racial line
would be drawn. As soon as the frs:
gong sounded the white officers quietly
made their way to the saloon and oc-
crpied all the seats at the table
When the second gong sounded the
colored officers found that there was no
place for them at the first table and
they were compelled to await the
pleasure of the white officers and eat
at the second table.
THEY SAW THE COLONEL.
The colored officers endured this
state of affairs for few days until
they were certain there was premed-
itated design to keep them at a dis
tance. Then one OF the colored Off
GERS sought out the Colonel and asked:
Colonel. tell me why is this distinc-
ton made?" The colored officer fur
ther punctuated his remarks by stat
ing: Colonel, dey will be big row
raised in Washington when dis effort at
distinction among the officers becomes
known, dat's sho?"

the army regulations prescribing rigid
observance of respect and Difference
from other officers and soldiers alike.
DISCIPLINE AND FOOD.
The colored officers maintain fine
discipline among their soldiers. and the
Warren is one Of the few transports on
which gambling among the soldiers
has not been allowed. as far as the
Forty-ninth Regiment Is concerned.
Shortly after leaving San Francisco
the company officers searched the men
and their belongings and conflscated
about a hatful OF crap dice. and even
card playing was discountenanced.
In the issuance OF food, the eolored
officers managed to be present and mar
rowly kept watch to see that every man
received what he Is entitled to accord
ing to army regulations. This is q
part of an officers duty which has
been sadly neglected in other regi-
ments en- route to the Philippines, and
gave rise to many unpleasant scandals
on account of deficient rations being
distributed. The colored officers, hav-
ing been soldiers in the ranks them
selves and appreciating the discomforts
and abuses which fall to the lot of the
private, have been most active in see
ing to it personally that no short ra-
tions are issued.
