DEATH OF KAp1oLAN1.
waiian Island Was Not I'm
expected.

San Francisco, July 5.-The news
brought from Honolulu by the Coptic
of the death on June "a of the Dowager
Queen Kapiolani was not surprise, as
her death had been expected for some
time. She was 65 years of age and was
sufferer from cancer and recently had
stroke of paralysis, following several
attacks of apopleNy. She was much
esteemed in the islands and her death
was sincerely mourned. Her remains
lay in state for eight days and were
buried with impressive ceremonies.
She left no children and during her life
devoted much of her time to charitable
work, the Kapiolani home for leper
girls and other institutions having been
founded by her. She visited San Fran
cisco in state in 1887, with her sister-in-
law, then Princess Liliuokalani, and
was given a royal welcome.

Bohemians in London.

The word bohemian" in the sense
Of being careless in manner habit and
dress, can scarcely be applied to the
modern English artist who has arrived.
Take Alma-Tadema, for instance. His
hair may perhaps bs sometimes too
long, his collar too low and his tie neg
Hgently worn, but there is always har-
mony in his design of dress. He would
not appear in fashionable London in
June wearing anything that would at
tract attention. But though he rarely
wears the conventional silk hat or
frock coat, his is figure so adaptive
to the attire that he is noticeable only
as a pleasing figure from bohemia.
Other artists are bohemians only at
home and in their own studios. Mr..
Orchardson Is irreproachable in the
matter Of dress When he should do
SO, he wears the correct attire Of an
ordinary gentleman. In the studio he
works in the artists loose coat and low
collar. Sir Edward POINTER is another
who is precise in his habits Of dress
abroad in the city, but Is artistically
lax at hon : or in holiday time.
In London there is another class of
bohemians who are perhaps worse Of.
Tenders. Mr.. Bryce, too, is a parlia-
mentary bohemian, who prefers to in
dulge in the greater luxury Of comfort
rather than be conventional. In litera.
ture, perhaps, boheminnism thriyes "a
we'll as, if not better than, elsewhere.
The novelist usually lives in the coun-
try and is away from the restraint Of
cities, SO that he may be as uncouth in
his dress as he pleases. Rider Haggard
and Grant Allen recognize no conven-
tional laws in this respect. They and
others we'll known to fame prefer to
wear the simple dress Of country gen.
tlemen, and when they nay their rare
visits to town touch Of literary style
becomes them WELL
DR.. Conan Doyle and William Black
are bohemians of recognized standing.
If DR.. Doyle's appearance is more
unconventional than the eye is accus.
toned to, he has not an enemy in the
world to make remark. Mr.. Burnand,
the editor of Punch, is another. His
dress is happy in its negligence-the
flowing tie, the rundown collar and
the slightly tilted hat. Mr.. CUTLER
Couch is a hater of cities. and in his
Cornish home his attire goes pnre-
marked among his friends. It is usually
ono of striking colors,

BROTHERS EMBRACE.
Matthew Dreyfus Permitted to
Visit the Captain.
TIE PRISONER is IN GOOD SPIRITS.
Astoundcd Mt the Extraordinary
Schemes Promulgated Against Him
by His Encmics-Movcd by
Devotion of Friends.

Rennes, July 5.--NIaitre Labori paid
another visit to Capt. Dreyfus at ten
O'Clock Tuesday morning, remaining
with him until noon. The lawyer
found the prisoner to be in even better
spirits than on Monday, and in the re-
sistance Dreyfus has shown to the
frightful blow he suffered in the judg-
mcnt of the court-martial and his ter
ribc existence on DEVILS island, COM
bined with his marvellous recuperation
of physical and mental strength since
he left Cayenne, Maitre Labori saw the
strongest proofs of his innocence. Coun-
sci was almost joyful in appearance on
leaving the military prison Tuesday,
and beyond doubt his interviews with
Dreyfus have given him the most
favorable impression respecting the
outcome of the court-martial. Dreyfus
spent Monday evening and Tuesday in
studying the documents relating to
the Esterhazy and lola trials. Maitre
Labori during the mornings confer
ence explained to him the obscure
points. Dreyfus was naturally aston
ished at many incidents and at the
attitude of various persons since his
deportation.
Quiet Mt Rennes.
1t is impossible to imagine a town
calmer than Rennes. The inhabitants
continue absolutely Indifferent to the
presence of Dreyfus. The town, how
ever, is full of detectives, who scrutinize
all strangers, and few gendarmes are
ratrolling before the residence of Nine.

everyone stopping before the gate lead
ing to the courtyard of the mansion.
Sees His Hrother.
Matthew Dreyfus paid his first visit
to his brother at three o'clock Tuesday
afternoon, the interview lasting half an
hour. The brothers threw themselves
into each others arms. Matthew said
he found his brother aged and broken
in health, but not the physical wreck
he feared. In spite of his sufferings
Dreyfus' eyes are as bright and his
mind as clear and his intelligence as
keen as when he was occupied with his
duties on the general staff. Matthew
found his brother i'll good spirits and
buoyed up by the necessity of mus.
tering all his strength for the coming
ordeal and by the hope that he will
at last have justice done him. He is
extremely reserved as to his life Oh
DEVILS island, which has left an in.
delible impression and remains in his
memory as horrible nightmare. Drey
fus looks back to his existence of the
past four years with relief, tinged with
feeling of the horror of sane man
who has escaped from madhouse. He
declares his brain is almost Keeling in
the face of the mass of documents anc
explanations NM. Demage and Labor
are bringing out regarding the extraor
binary Vaccinations of his enemies ant
the persevering devotion of his friends
| Dreyfus is astounded and full of heart
felt gratitude at their self-sacrifice
This feeling is particularly strong a.
regards Col. Picquart, whom he hardly
remembers, and the story of who's,
persecution has profoundly moved
him.

Saved His Gazelle.

There are various ways of showing
heroism, and the deed may be none the
less heroic because the object is not of
the human species. For instance, there
is pretty sentiment about the recent
action of Commander Lewis BLACKBURN
of the cruiser Blenheim in saving the
life Of his pet gazelle. AS the comnan-
der was leaving the British warship,
Royal Adelaide, a gazelle, which he
had recently brought home from
abroad, ran to meet him, and in affec-
tionately rubbing against MIN, fell
overheard. The gallant officer, who
was in full uniform, promptly plunged
into the basin, although the risk was
great, the night being intensely dark,
and there being chains between the
Adelaide and other ships. Shouting
for lights to be brought, he kept him.

were assisted to dry land.

killing was done in a spasm of jealousy
