The First Local Mint.

One OF the institutions here
which has the special attention of
tourists as we'll as the local people
is the Mint, which is established on
Nuuanu street, opposite Queen
Emma Hall. 1t is interesting to
enter the large main working room,
where general manager McDonough
and his corps of assistants are at
work. The cool and large lanai is
proper resting place and the vaults,
where the Chars" to be minted and
beer are kept present a very tasty
spectacle. The Mint is open from
$50 \. N. to 1l:30 p. m. and during
those hours the work never ceases.
Visitors after looking over the place
will find first class refresh ments and

when two lS-year-oii boys meet this

fellow How are you?" First boy:
"Hunkidory. So long" Second boy:

Coachers of High Quality In Demand.
There is said to be at the present
time a very good demand for high
priced coachers both for home and
foreign markets. In fact this demand
has been quite brisk for a year past
There are a large number of good
sized cities in the United States and
IN each city are people that can afford
to have team of high quality coach
ers. This makes the volume of home
demand considerable. There is an es-
pecially strong demand for well-match-
ed teams, and men that have such to
sell can get good deal more than
the going market price for them. Not
being able to get this the buyers will
take the cross-matched teams at a
pretty fair price, II the quality be good.
Here comes in the value of color. II
shows that a prepotent stallion in a
locality is Of even greater value than
ordinarily ii he can throw the same
color in his colts. This fact should
discourage hap-hazard breeding.

Feeding Moldy Corn,


The annual loss OF live stock From,
cerebro-spinal meningitis is quite con-
siderable. Various causes for the
spread of this disease have been sug-
gested. One Of those popularity be-
heved in is the eating of moldy corn.
During the fall and winter of 1S9S-99
there was large loss of cattle in
Indiana which was attributed to this
cause. A wet fall was responsible for
large quantities of moldy corn. The
popular belief was that the organism
causing the fermentation in the corn
produced disease in the live stock. The
lhulana station studied the epidemic
ana its relation to it's alleged cause
Inc disease was found to be cerebro
splnal meningitis An examination of
large number of specimens of moldy
corn from different localities showed
That one bacteria and two molds were
common to all samples. Other micro
organisms were found, but varied in
the different samples.
rests OF the poisonous properties of
the moldy corn were made with two
horses. After preliminary feeding
period five cubic centimeters (about
one-sixth ounce of an active growth
in bouillon of the bacterium found in
moidy corn was injected under the
skim After an interval of six hours
this was followed by an injection of
10 cubic centimeters. No appreciable
effect was observed; not even so much
as an abscess occurred. Five DAVIS
later similar test was made with a
culture OF one of the molds isolated
from the spoiled corn, and after like
interval similar test with a culture
OF the other mold. In neither case was
any abnormal symptom observed.
Each of the three micro-organisms
was then grown in corn meal pre-
Vlously sterilized. In various WAYS the
horses were induced to eat as much as
pounds per head daily of the infected
meal, each micro-organism being test
ed for period of five days. The effect
of the meal inoculated with the bac-
terium and one of the molds was mega
tive. The meal inoculated with the
other mold-a fusarium-produced red
ness Of the gums and some salvation

The consumption Of beer in Germany

1t Is now said to be 125 liters a year a

| france, on the other hand, wine is the
national beverage, and the use of 1t is
more extensive than ever since the re-
covery OF the country from the ravages
or phylloxera. Notwithstanding che
increased use of beer in Germany and
OF wine in France, both countries are
going into the business of manufactur-
ing and drinking cider. France has
made cider for many years, but 1t is
almost new industry in Germany.
botn nations like cider and are drink
ing more and more of it, though the IN
creasing quantity does not seem to di-

tlonal beverages. In three months be-

number of the northern and central de-

years. The cider crop comes from six

OF it is derived from Normandy and
Brittany. Nearly all the cider is for
home consumption and the imports
amount to very little. The older mills
OF France are now turning out $780,

A Chinaman's Good Sermon.

The Chinese character is full of in
tellectual surprises. A convert to
Christianity was called upon to give
an illustration Of the sacred Scripture.
Blessed are the pure in heart: for
they shall see God" You say that it
is hard'to worship God who cannot
be seen" said he, land that you have
no inward evidence of His actuality. A
mirror from which all the quicksilver
had dropped might as well complain
that it could find no trace of the OBJ
jects placed before it. Clean thoughts,
clean affections, clean desires have the
same function in human nature as the
quicksilver on the back of the mirror.
When the heart is filled once more
with holy thoughts. the perfect image.
of God will again be seen there.

DAILY AND HICKMAN.
New Story Told of the Late Montana
Copper Kiug.

When Marcus DAILY was in Wash.
ington last it is told that he performed
a humane act which very nearly
brought a brutal hack driver into the
police court, and was topic of con-
versation at the hotel and other places
which DAILY frequented. The story es-
capped the vigilance of the local news
paper fraternity. and is here published
for the first time. DAILY was coming
out OF Chamberlain's one morning
when he espied a negro hackman
brutally belaboring crippled old
horse with a heavy whip in an almost
futile effort to increase it's speed from
walk to slow trOt, says the Wash
ington Post. DAILY hailed the driver.
VINO quickly drew rein and approached
the curb with the prospects of obtain
ing fare. Where do you want to
go to, boss?" inquired the negro "IlL
want to go with you to the police court
If you don't stop beating that poor old
horse" replied the millionaire. "You
could coax the nag along faster with a
handful of oats and wisp of hay in
front of him than you can by beating
him from behind. When did you feed
him last?" The negro complained that
times were hard, that fares were scarce
and that he could not afford to pro
vide better for his horse. DAILY saw
the force of the argument at once and
inquired how much the cabman aver
aged a week, and was told that So or
$40 was considered good wage. DAILY
reached down in his vest pocket and
drew forth roll of bills, from which
he peeled $40 note and handed it to
the astonished negro. There, take
