COL. sPALDING's MISSION.
Belief Abroad That He Comes Here on
Gable Business.

Colonel u. S. Spalding will leave this
afternoon for his estate on Kauai. He
expects to remain in the Islands some
time and says he is here merely for "a
visit" to his old home. There are those
however who believe Colonel Spalding
has another cable project up his sleeve,
although he is n-cOmmunicatiVe IN
the point
Just what service Hawaii could be at
this time in a cable venture is hard TO
see unless il be In private endorsement
and support. There could not be sub
sidy, unless 1t come In the form OF a
"relief appropriation" which would only
stand for two years. Colonel Spalding
secured franchise for a cable about
four years ago but failed to get his bill
through a the other end in Congress.
On account of this failure he forfeited
$685. 900 in government bonds which he
had put up as a guarantee of good faith
Though he smiles at the idea the be-
lief is abroad. that Colonel Spalding is
here on cable business.

CONSENTS TO return.

George Pratt, the leper brought TO
this port by the steamship China, has
consented to return to San Francisco.
He was strongly urged to do so by Dr.
Carmichael, and informed fatty that he
would not be allowed a landing If 1t
were in the power of the local autho-
rites to prevent it. After thinking the
matter over Pratt consented to go.
DIR. Carmichael stated this morning
that the unfortunate would be return
ed on the same vessel bringing him here.
1t is doubtful that any other vessel
would take him, whereas the China can
be compelled to do so.

A Supreme Court Jeat.

An eminent lawyer, one of the most

the midst of an argument in defense of
the patent rights of his client to a
newfangled collar button that was be-
ing unlawfully manufactured by the
people on the other side of the case.
The distinguished counsel was describ-
ing the patent referred to and its many
advantages when Justice Shiras inter-
rUpted him and in most serious man.
ner observed:
Il should like to ask the learned coun-
sci IL his client manufactures a collar
button that won't roll under the bed"
OF course the court was shocked.
Some young people in the seats re-
served for spectators Uttered, and the
marshal, rapping on his desk with his
gavel, roared, silence in this honora-
BILE courtr The eminent counsel main
tanned his gravity, although bis soul
must have been deeply stirred, and had
presence Of mind enough to turn the
incident to his own advantage, saying
with emphasis:

that the collar button manufactured by
my client is unique in that as well as
in other respects, but my client would
not be so selfish as to patent so impor-
tant a benefit to mankind. "-Chicago

Many OF the large red ants are slave
holders, and, oddly enough, their slaves
are invariably black, much as is the
case with the human race When
slaves are desired by colony of ants,
a regular army of invasion is formed,
and skirmishers and scouts are sent on
ahead to discover nest of black ants.
This having been found, the warrior
ants-insects quite different from the
ordinary workers, with powerful jaws
-set out to invade their neighbours ter
ritory and carry away the eggs and
pupe to their own nests A fierce bat
tie ensues, but the invading ants are
always victorious.
On returning to their own colony the
young Of their defeated foe are taken
into their nests and carefully treated
until they arrive at maturity, when
they become the willing bondsmen of
the conquerors of their parents, doing
all the hardest work of the community,
even to the length Of feeding their cap
tors. The latter, however, is not en-
tirely a needless humiliation to subject
them to, as some species of slavehold-
ing ants are incapable Of feeding them
selves and would die of starvation In
the midst of plenty were it not for
their slaves.-Kansas City Independ-

Here is little genealogical problem

parents had each two, and SO on. Now,

culation somewhere. Can anybody tell

Cures for Home Ailments.
Bv Harriet Hubbard Aver.

By Harriet Hubbard Aver.
There is nothing more helpful to the
careful housewife than a good knoWl-
edge Of simple remedies for small ills.
1t is not always convenient to call in
a doctor, and provided it Is, there is
the expense Of the visit to be looked
after. OF course in complicated cases
home remedies should not be employed
any longer than it takes for physi-
clan to reach the patient, but for small
Ills the thoughtful housewife will resort
to home remedies.
For ringworms nothing is better than
n strong solution of borax If applied
twice a day this win cure the most
obstinate cases.
A mustard emetic is made as follows:
A tablespoonful of ground mustard to
tumhlerful of warm water. Take as
hot as possible.
Bathing the chest with cold water
each morning will greatly strengthen
it and friction should also be used.
Cornmeal poultices are too heavy
where they is a great tenderness; flax
seed and slippery elm should be used
instead.
The majority of the poultices may be
mixed with boiling water and allowed
10 boil for a few minutes: this will
help them to retain the heat.
Sometimes sleeping in a draught will
cause the glands of the neck to become
swollen and the muscles stiff. Wrap
ping the neck in flannel saturated with
camphorated oil will usually effect a
cure very speedily.
Here is an old remedy, but a very ex-
cellent one. III case, of a sprain or
bruise send Immediately to the village
apotheeary and get some NORWOOD.
Boil this in vinegar and apply hot. with
plenty of cloths to keep it moist.
II a splinter gets into the hands or
feet and is too deep to be extracted
with a fine needle. hot water on linen
should be applied, and If this does not
draw it out bread and milk poultices

him, and. keeping him in conversation,
continued to pace the deck. All subse-
quent arrivals were duly ushered be-
low to the saloon. but stiIl the admiral
kept the duke on deck AT last 1t oc-
CURED to the duke that the dinner hour
had been passed, and he ventured to

Instantly the duke took the hint, call

captains of the fleet had turned up in

the dinner was official. On his return
to the flagship in the quickest time on

but infiexible admiral was still pacing

Knoclss Their shoes on.

Strange as it may seem, people kill
ed in railroad wreck are generally
bereft of their shoes by the shock. In
commenting on this popularity an old
railroad engineer said: "A man who is
killed in railroad accident seldom
dies with his boots on. don't know
why this should be. but it is a fact. 1t
is particularly true in the case of a
man who is struck by an engine and
killed. In nine cases out of ten, when
the body is picked up, it will be found
minus shoes. Even men wearing heavy
top boots are not exempt from this
strange rule. Why is it? | guess you'll
have to ask somebody who is wiser
than am."-Philadelphia Record.
