THE RAMBlER's pIcKINes.

Oftentimes things are said in pub
lio which would be better unsaid.
So Rambler put his foot in It bv
writing a little item which he had
every reason to believe was true.
But since it is not yet the fashion to
take any person who gives informa-
tion before a justice of the peace to
take their affidavit (Which, perhaps,
would not be worth anything) Ram
bier certainly is not TO blame if he
gave wrong information without in
tending to do so. Still rumors are
not facts ! Correspondents ore liza

people, ministers not excepted

The latest story about the Schley
court of inquiry alleging that the
navy department would not furnish
Schley with list of the witnesses
was remarkable only for the ignor-
ance IL showed concerning the
methods of the department. 1t is
the invariable rule of the depart
ment to furnish the officer who
asks for a court of inquiry with a
list of the witnesses summoned by
the department as soon as it is fully
made up, and the rule will not be
departed from in the Schley case.
Schley's three lawyers were at the
department today and submitted to
Acting Secretary Hackett a COM
plete list of the witnesses chosen by
Admiral Schley.

A Corn Huaker.

The man who invents a really
practical corn husker which will
husk standing corn is assured of a
fortune. AS in the case Ofthe trying
work Of picking cotton, but little
help has been given to the farmer by
the inventor. Numerous attempts
have been made, but none of the
machines constructed hasproved prac-
tical. One Of the latest is a eombina-
tiOn Of the corn binder and the husker
and shredder, which is attached to
the ordinary farm wagon. The fin
gers Of the husker collect the stalks
and convey them to the rollers of the
shredder, where the husks are re-
moved and the ears elevated to the
wagon box. The principle seems to
be all right, but the practicability Of
Of the machine is yet to demonstrated.

The statistics of the native popu-
lation of Hawaii for the last half
century present an interesting
study, showing a decrease so large
and steady that if it be kept up an
other half century there will be
practically no natives or descend
ants of natives left on the island.
In 1858 when the first authentic
census was taken there were n, ,O1s
natives on the island. Each sue
ceeding census has shown a smaller
number, the last showing only
20, ssA natives, and 1885 part Ha-
waiians.

son to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of Judge Dreher. He was

ters and was one of the most active
members, frequently occupying the

It is up to those who sneer at the

saves each year many times its
