A JuMBLE OF TONGUES
Debates in Two Languages.

Honolulu. March / via San Francisco,
March THE first Territorial Legisla-
ture Of Hawaii is in session.
The House members meet in the throne
room Of the old palace building, now oc-
cupied by Government offices. The
Speakers chair is the former throne Of
Hawaiian monarchs.
With both houses in control. Of the
independent home rule party and con
tanning n majority Of native Hawaiians,
the Legislature has already been the
scene Of some remarkable proceedings.
The end Of the session promises to see
many radical measures adopted, among
those to which the controlling party is
committed being liquordispensary law,
a taxation system that will be a combi-
nation Of single tax and income tax doc
trines and law excluding from the
Territory all persons who may arrive
here afflicted with consumption or lep-
rosy.
The question Of language is another
source Of trouble. The organic act says
that all proceedings of the legislature
shall be conducted in the English Ian
guage. Half Of the members cannot
speak English, and Hawaiian interpreters
have been employed in both houses. IL
is the opinion that this will inyalidate
all the proceedings. Every measure and
every speech are being given in both
English and Hawaiian.
On the third day Secretary Of the Ter
ritory Cooper was ordered out OF the
House and escorted out by the sergeant
alarms. Acting under the section OF the
Territorial act which provides that he
shall record and preserve the laws and
proceedings Of the Legislature, - Secretary
Cooper took place on the floor of the
House, with stenographer, to secure a
record of the proceedings. Representa-
tive Beckley offered a resolution requir-
ing him To leave. The resolution set
forth that his presence on the floor was
a violation of the rule that the three
departments of goyernment-executive,
judicial and legislative-must be kept
separate. 1t was urged in debate that
Gov. Dole had put Cooper where he was
with a view to intimidating members by
letting them see that the executive officer
was getting a stenographic report of the
proceedings.
Cooper was declared by Republicans
to be present as the representative OF
President Mckinley, as he had been or
dered to transmit a report to Washing
ton, but even this plea did not deter the
Independents. After a long debate they
passed the Beckley resolution by a vote
Of 20 to 8, the 8 being all the Republicans
in the House
1t is understood that Cooper has asked
Washington for a ruling as to the mean
ing of the Instructions given him TO send
a record.

close personal friend in Baltimore from
Allentown. Pa, under date OF February
27th, that he was then leading IN great
revival meeting in that city, in which
seventeen churches had united. He spoke
of the success which had marked his eff

of his letter, Dr. Wharton referred to his
financial difficulties, and said that in the
past two years he had paid out 10000,
besides meeting the running expenses Of
the orphans homes at Ocean Grove, n.

The Theory Of wuolsn Rsdcluthi ng

The idea Of having exclusively wooden
bedcIothing is that the exhala tions of the
body may escape in the same way that
the carbolic acid gas does. and wooden
clothing, beingporous, permits the escape
OF these exudations, which cotton or
linen clothing will absorb, with the result
so often noticeable, an unpleasant
odor around the bedroom in the morn
ing.

A curiosity can be seen;
And tho recorded in no book,
Is worth trip 70 come and look
On mountain top Of Saddle Back
Is a majestic cataract,
Bounding DER trees, rocks and all,
Known rs the South River Falls
The descent is Of sixty feet,
Accomplished by a double leap;
The first is perpendicular,
And falls into a reservoir.
And seething, writbing as with pain,
Uncoils itself to leap again,
And falling headlong as before,
"a the waters come down at Lodore
To reach this place il no easy task.
Bring camphor bottle and whiskey flask
Some sticking-plaster and Royal glue,
4 rope and pulley and ladder, too;
A haversack with bread and meat,
And rubbers for your knees and feet;
4 glass TO sean the country far,
4 Testament and book Ofprayer.
In winter all is solid ice
To keep aloOi is rny advice
But summer time embrace the breeze,
And carve your name upon the trees.
The tourist has not long to stay
Unless he prefers the night TO day.
Old Sol don't get up there till ten,
And fingers only an hour then.
Below the falls, for a league about,
The angler gets the willy trout;
With kindest feelings for the fish.
Keeps il from his neighbor's dish.
Near the line Of Page and Rockingham,
On the Southern fork Of Rapidan,

A reminder of the Yosemite.
