An Objectionable Answer.

Questions as to ones household man
agement are always Objectionable un-
less they come from intimate friends
who are anxious to give or take counsel
in the affairs of daily life," says Mrs.
Humphrey, in her chat on Social Blum
ders and How to Avoid Them" in the
Young Woman. She goes on to say that
she once met at a lunch a young lady
who annoyed her hostess very r'uch by
answering, when asked if she would
have roast mutton or boiled fowl:
"Whatever you do not want to keep
for the servants dinner" The hostess
did not conceal her displeasure at this
apparent reflection on her manage

so by 120, three stories, with tower
four stories and a chimney 20 by 100

100 acres of land adjoining the mill.
j. G. Speckin, of Indianapolis, is super
intending the placing of a 200-horse
power Corliss engine and two 100 horse
power boilers.
When the mill begins operations

struct the colored labor. The mill and
its equipment cost about $65,0OO, II

looms. All its officers are colored. By

candidate for prosecuting attorney,
and although the county was strongly
democratic he accepted the nomination
and went into the fight with such vigor
that he was elected by plurality of
nearly 400, although the democratic
state ticket carried the county by 1900.
He made a good record in the office, and
two years later was reelected.
After the expiration of his term Nash
resumed the practice of his profession.
In 1879 he was elected attorney general,
and reelected in 1881. Before the ex-
piration of his term he resigned to ac-
cept an appointment rendered him by
Gov. Foster upon the supreme court
commission. The commission went
out of existence in April, 1855, since
which time Judge Nash has pursued
the practice of his profession.
He was chairman of the republican
state executive committee in 1S81-'2-'3,
and has always taken an active part in
the committee work upon the stump in
the succeeding campaigns.

FAST EXPRESS TRAINS.
Two Eastern Specials That Run Nore

The Commute flyers on both the
Pennsylvania and Reading railroads to
Atlantic City are establishing n rec
ord for time. The regular schedule
time Of the Pennsylvania railroads At
lantic City flyer was 65 miles an hour
from Camden to Winslow Junction, and
rs miles an hour from the latter point
to Abseson. There are two trains be-
tween Philadelphia and New York on
the Pennsylvania railroads regular
schedule that make faster run every
day in the year. The Business Mans
express, leaving Philadelphia at 1888
in the morning, is scheduled at 1888
miles per hour, while it's mate, the
four p. IN. train from New York, an
initiates time at the rate of 5000 miles
per hour. al things considered, these
two trains are really the fastest reg
ular trains in the country, and on sec
tions of the road, notably between New
Brunswick and Trenton, their schedule
speed is considerable over mile a
minute. The sustained rate of speed,
by the way, on all express trains of the
Pennsylvania railroad between New
York, Philadelphia and Washington is
fully as high as that on any other rail-
road. Taking 35 trains in this group,
the lowest rate of speed per mile is Al

A SELF-RESPECT1NG HORSE.

"As far as my observation goes" said
porter, 1.-The horse prefers not be be
petted by strangers. He is reserved

miliarity, but on the contrary, rather
withdrawing from it; but it seems to
me the horses intelligence is scarcely
on par with his sensitiveness. Thus:

tered, hooked to wagon standing In
the intersecting street, n horse that
stood with his nose close to the cross
walk, within easy touch of the passers-
by. The man ahead of me, with the
most friendly intentions, but with, as
it seemed to me, quite supertluous good
nature, reached out as he passed and
drew his hand down the horses nose.
1t was done gently enough, and it was
meant to convey to the horse u sense
of the mans friendly consideration. But
the horse actually didn't care for 1t;
he drew his head back from the touch
May be he was doing when the man
touched him, and so drew back me-
chanically, but l thought he didn't like
the familiarity, and thought that was
all right, but I was n little piqued
moment later, when, as ] passed him,
the horse drew his head back from me;
he had been touched by tho man ahead;
he feared repetition of that action on
my part, and he drew his head back to
avoid it. He didn't distinguish between
me, who would never have dreamed of
disturbing him, and the man who had
fntruded upon him; in fact, he APP
peared not to recognize my remarkable
refinement at all; he simply regarded
me as he did all the rest"

He was seated fiat upon the sta

enough, into that first of all musical

was playing on it, as the shepherd in

ATTENTION GIVEN
KAPIOLANl PARK
What MIR. Irwin Proposes to Do
Plan Of Commission.

At meeting of the Honolulu Park
Commission held yesterday, Mr.. W. u.
Irwin offered to donate to the kaplo-
lani Park a keepers lodge OF artistic
design, to be located at such point IN
the park as will make it al ornament
to the grounds.
The Commission accepted the offer
and gave a vote of thanks to the gen
erous donor.
rhe present keepers house is IN a
dilapidated condition, and anything
but ornamental.
Mr.. Irwin also has in mind the con-
struction of an aviary which will pro-
vide for the display of large variety
Of birds. His plans for this are not yet
perfected, however.
The Park Commissioners are also
maturing plans for making radical lrl-
provements in the park, including the
curbing of the main avenues near the
entrance, grassing over the adjacent
territory. and the construction of an
artistic refreshment house AMI boat
stand.
The present income of the park
barely pays it's running expenses. lie
Commissioners propose, therefore, to
prepare plans and estimates Of cost OF
the various improvements proposed
and then to ask public subscriptions
with which to carry them out. The
Commissioners are confident that a
hearty response will be ma Il to Their
propositions.
