account.
The Hogan Minstrels have challenged
the Stars for return game for the
benefit of charity, but it has not yet
been acted upon.
Kamehameha, st. Louis and Punahou
may form league this season. The
prospects of these clubs are good.
The challenge from Stanford Univer-
sity has fallen through, owing to lack
of funds.
Duke" McNicholl, the magnate of
local ball, is agitating the ground ques-
ton. He says there is not place in
the Union where better facilities for
playing the national game than here
are not publicly arranged for
With Dog and Gun.
Nothing may be shot this month or
next, and the breechloader will not be
taken from its case until July LIST, when
dove shooting commences. The season
proper does not open till September.
Owing to the prolonged drought, the
sprig. teal, widgeon, plover and other
birds that have been accustomed to
visit us by the tens of thousands did
not put in an appearance this year in
anything like their usual numbers. 1t
is to be feared that our two principal
game birds,the monaghan pheasant and
the native duck, are suffering to an
alarming extent from the ravages of
| the mOngoose and the pot-hunter. The
former, in fact, seems to be threatened
with speedy extinction on account of
| the accessibility of it's nest to the ma
| rauding mongoose, which when he dis

which lays its eggs on crags near the

min.
Wild hogs are reported extremely

tensively hunted in the future.

upon the earliest models, with later walls
belonging TO the imperial epoch In its
original form the ediice was evidently

the traditions regarding St. Cecilia II

marriage, so the story runs, and display

upon herself the doom Of a martyr The
decree was that she was to be scalded
to death In her bath. and a bathroom
adjoining the right transept OF the church
has been shown 10 the devOut for years
as the spot in which she gave up her
life for her religion. The discovery OF the
new bathroom leads the archaeologists
to believe thaC they have found the real
room of her maTtyrdom, although they
admit that the remains IN the transept
may have been a part Of the original
bathroom, which was large and magnif-

that 1t IS easy to ascertain who the chiefs
are, even among strangers. They have a
peculiar little custom Of wishing to
change names. It is their greatest token
Of friendship and confidence. But what
would an American woman do with a
South Sea island woman's name? Ger
tainly not use it as her own.
The women of Gilbert island dress
their hair to stand straight out as a pro
lection against the sun. The Marshall
islanders tie their locks in knots on the
tops Of their head and ornament them
with feathers and flowers. The Mortlock
men wear their hair in rolls on the back
of their nechs, while the women let 1t fall
in ringlets on either side of their face.
in most of the islands the curious custom
of Sitting the lobe of the ear prevails
among both men and women. This hoe
is sometimes enormously stretched and d
wooden cylinder or tortoise shell is placed
in it. In this cylinder, or smell ornaments
or Valuables are carried. sometimes OF
two or three pounds weight in each ear.
You can readily imagine 1t does not, In
your eyes, aid to the beauty of the wo-

am sure they thought US as immodest as
we thought them.
The character and status of the wo-
men being an accurate indication Of the
degree of civilization which a people have
attained would not put the South Sea
islanders very high up in the scale And
yet the descent of rank through the fe-
male line gives the women place of i'm
portance which it is hard at first to I'M
derstand, realizing the inescapable social
degradation Of the sex. AS a queen or
regent she may have almost unlimited
power, but she can not eat even with the
humblest man. A woman must not eat
of the food prepared in the same oven as
mans, nor of many viands supersti-
tious1y reserved for the male sex At
birth she is more unwelcomed than her
brother, and more liable to be thrust alive
into the grave. AS a child she must eat
no food that has CHANGED to touch her
fathers dish. AS wife she is subject to
her husbands will and is cast off when no
longer pleasing. Curiously enough, how
ever, the men cook the food, while on
many of the islands the women accom-
psny their husbands to battle.

That st. Cecilia, patron of music and

human interests and habits and not a
mere myth or a fanciful creation of the
painter who has made US so familiar

IS splrltism They have no idols no tenn
pies, no priests. They do obeisance to
certain trees, rocks or slabs of coral, into
which they suppose spirits have entered.
These ghosts or spirit stones are generally
from one to three feet high. Small stones
are laid around in circle about two
feet from the larger stone, and inside of
this the ground is covered with white peb-
bles. They are placed near and some
times inside the house. They have a
special dialect which is used in speaking
OF or to their rulers or chiefs and in their
worship. So different is this from the
