COMMERCIAL STATISTICS.

Collector General Stackable makes
request of the importers of Hawaii
which should be complied with imme-
diately and as a matter of course.
Up to June IA last full classified sta
tistics were kept at the Custom House
OF all imports from the United States
On that date Hawaiian ports became
domestic ports and no customs entries
of goods received from other parts of
the United States were thereafter re-
quired. Prior to June IA the imports
from the United States had Increased
for the past year at the rate of about
100 per cent over 1899. 1t is known that
there Is still heavy rate of importa-
ton, but what and how much the i'm
ports are no one knows and no one can
know, unless the importers will give
the information which Collector Stack
able requests.
There are several good reasons for
complying with the request. First, 1t
is of great utility for us to know our
selves what the nature and volume of
our business Is.
Second, the authorities at Washing
ton urgently request the data for the
general purpose of getting information
and for the specific reason that Hawaii
being the only one of the recently ac-
quired tropical islands to which the
American tariff system has been fully
extended, the effect and results are OF
the utmost interest to the whole coun-
try.
Third. we know that the results are
favorable. showing an enormous in
CREASE of consumption of American
products. This supports the policy OF
the administration in annexing Hawaii
and the facts and conditions will nat
urally be published widely, and the
prosperity of Hawaii VII. be brought
home TO scores OF thousands who other
wise would not so much as hear th'
name. An official certificate of oul
progressiveness and prosperity viii
have the direct effect of attracting
capital here, for nothing succeeds lik'
success. and capital loyes dividend
paying locality.
Fourth, we want favors of the Wash
ington Government. Then let us gran
the favor asked Of US, especially whel
IL Is for our own good.
Fifth, when we go to Congress ant
ask for appropriations for public works
as we surely will. strong supporting
argument will be official documentar.
proof that Hawaii is loyal to American
interests and is contributing liberall,
TO the expansion of American trade.
Against these reasons there Is tn
one only that furnishing the informa
ton will involve some work. This
however, viii amount to little, a
detail is not required, lump sum state
ment of the quantity and value of mer
chandise received, according to n sim
pie classification furnished by the Gus
tom House. being all that is wanted

OF CURRENT INTEREST.
A Rare Compliment.

Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin, is one
of the most eloquent men in the upper
house, inimitable on the stump and
credited with being able to do about as
he pleases with his audiences, says a
Washington correspondent. A friend
and admirer who was known to the
Senator from boyhood is authority for
the following story: Some years ago,
when taking part in symposium in
the northern part of the State, Senator
Spooner was making an imprisoned
appeal to his audience, in the midst
of which the master of ceremonies
touched him on the shoulder and, point
ing to the clock, indicated that his time
had expired. Quick as flash a woman
rose from her seat, and, mounting a
chair in front of the clock threw her
shawl over it's face, amid the laughter
and cheers of the audience, and to the
| diSmay of the master of ceremonies
1t is doubtful if Senator Spooner ever
received prettier compliment

OVERCROWDED SCHOOLS.

Reports from the various public
schools show large increase in at
tendance over last year and 1t is likely,
IL not almost certain, that before the
fall term Is well started many ambi-
tious young people who wish to enter
school viii be turred away for lack of
room. When the new Beretania Street
School was completed it was expected
that II would furnish ample accommo-
dations for all the children of the dis
trict and might relieve the congested
condition of some of the other schools
near by. But the first weeks registra-
tion shows the seating capacity of the
school nearly taken up and each day
ME number gains. From nearly every
ichool in the city the same story comes
so far all the applicants have been ac-
--ommodated but with the constant in
crease In numbers there will be almost
ertainly an overflow.

Modern Mummy Cloth.

1t has always been thought that it
was impossible to initiate the cloth in
which the ancient Egyptians wrapped
their mummies. A Manchester tourist
brought home a small bit of the fabric
and asked a cotton expert if he could
tell from what mill it came. He ex-
amined it carefully under his glass and
then said it came from q mill near Old
ham, England and was known by the
manufacturer as his mo. S." Investi-
cation showed he was right The an

relics in English made fabrics.

Newspapers Should be Studied.

President Tucker, of Dartmouth, in a
late address said that the newspaper
ought to be studied in college: not jour
nalism in the sense in which business
colleges propose to teach it, but the ac-
tual newspaper itself. Journalism has,
according to him, become such an i'm
mense power for good or bad in the
country that every young man when he
comes out of college should know
which are worthy newspap ers and
which are not.

About Dreams.

instinctively conscious of self. Aged
people dream less frequently and less
wildly than the young. Women's
dreams are more frequent. more vivid.
and better remembered than those of
men.

Croquet Supplanting Tennis.

1t was generally supposedath GRO
quet had gone altogether out of fash

homes where formerly tennis nets were
stretched croquet wickets and hoops are
once more seen. 1t has been found that
tennis is too violent game for the ma

greater demand on time and patience
