quaintances. It is not the habit of ev-
 cry F'renchman in such humble posi-
 tion to begin the day even with ablu-
 tions in which footbath plays prom | inent part; but, what is far more to
 the point, so far as this particular per
 sons newly acquired reputation with ! his neighborS is concerned, 1t is not 1 given to every road mender to amass q
 comfortable little fortune-at least for | member of that class-by dint of say
 lngs which represent considerable amount of self denial, This man. who Is now sixtyfve years of age, on re- | turning to his dwelling after the labors ! of the day, perceived, to his infinite
 horror, that his premises were in the hands of the firemen. Flames had
 burst forth from his modest habitation, and most of his humble furniture had
 been destroyed. The fire was now be- ing got under but little of any value, even to him, remained, and, in despair ing accents, he exclaimed that all the money which he had been putting by for years had been lost How much did it amount to? the sympathizing bystanders inquired. To 10000 francs was the reply; and tben smile indi- cative of incredulity pervaded the countenances of the neighbors, Ten thousand francs!" they cried. "Why, you must be joking. or you must have gone mad" No" the road mender groaned, T am not testing. And to think that I have not even a list of the numbers of my shares! What will be- come of me now?"
 The onlookers were considerably pug zled, and they had just come to the conclusion that the misadventure must have turned their friends brain, when a fireman emerged from the still smok- Ing house with a footbath, from which the water used in the early morning had not yet been emptied. The old man regarded the footbath ruefully enough, but suddenly he sprang forward, and, going down on his knees, he pulled out the scrip the loss of which he had mourned. There were the shares quite intact, as rapid survey showed, for the water had preserved them from the flames. In his delight he put his arms around the fireman who had saved his fortune from destruction, and hugged and kissed him. What joy!" he cried as soon as he had recovered his breath. My shares fell into my footbath, which I forgot to empty before I went out. Verify, there is Providence for the poor!"-Paris Correspondence of the London Telegraph

E ISION I'll IT ELiLKEn.

Philadelphia is only ninety miles from New York and it's government has been as bad in some ways as that of New York. But the reform wave that overflowed New York Tuesday did nt reach Philadelphia. The great struggle in Philadelphia was over the office of district attorney and the ma chine candidate beat his opponent by 43,478 plurality. The interest taken in the contest is indicated by the fact that the entire vote cast in the city footed up 237,42S, against 23S,00O in the presidential contest of last year This is the way the Philadelphia North American describes the performance: Yesterdays election in Philadelphia was a carnival of fraud. In the wards election boards, particularly the first, third, fourth, fifth, seventh, tenth, and thirteenth, the polling was mere farce. Repeaters swarmed the crooked pre- cincts and voted by wholesale. Honest voters were either driven away from the polls by the hired thugs of the ma chine, or, if they persisted in demand ing their rights, were arrested by the Ashbridge police.
 There was fusion in Philadelphia as in New York, but the fusionists of Philadelphia failed They intend, however, to try some more, and they will have the good wishes of all friends of good government.

 upon parchment, for which she re- 8cefves adequate and sometimes exceed

WENT WITH HANDsOMER JAP.

There was a very sad and depressed
Little Brown Man who sailed for Japan
yesterday on the steamship Coptic.
The wife of his bosom had deserted
him for another fellow. The japanese
had purchased two steerage tickets for
himself and his wife. In fit of tenn
porary alteration he permitted the
woman to hold the cash while he con-
tented himself with keeping the tick
cts. Shortly before the vessel sailed
there was quite a delegation of their
countrymen on hand to bid them aloha.
When the eyes of the husband were
gazing elsewhere the woman slipped
down the gang plank to freedom, leav-
ing her husband in the lurch and with
out cash. In vain did the bemoan his
loss. The boat would not wait until he
had searched for her. The Japanese
finally concluded to waste no more time
or money so he departed with the YES

The Inter-Island steamer Ke Au Hou
arrived this morning from Hawaiian
ports after being out nearly two weeks.
This is one OF the longest trips ever
made by the vessel and on some of the
days there were quite exciting times
Rough weather was the cause Of the
delay
The vessel left Honolulu on the End.
and had "a fair passage to Waipio. She
went over to Kulluihaele via Honokaa
and worked some freight at the former
place on the 4th but the weather be-
came so bad on the following day that
the vessel had to leave Honokaa The
port anchor and ten fathoms OF chain
were lost causing captain Mosher To
put back 70 Waipio Gulch to await un-
til the sea and wind had subsidized. The
weather continued rough on the 9th and
eth and the vessel was weather bound
at Waipio. on the Sth purser Bert
Sharratt was sent ashore in charge OF
boat to get some stores for the ship
A big sea came up and carried the boat
onto the rocks stoving a hole in her
bottom The crew managed TO get the
boat back to the steamer however and
repair the damage Later a landing
was made and the ships stores replen-
ished. Nothing could be done on the
next two days as the weather was stiu
bad but on the 18th and 18th they were
able to work at both Honokaa and Ku-
kuihaele. leaving these places yester-
day afternoon.
There was plenty of rain but the pas
sage through the Hawaii channel was
smooth. OF Of Kihei however the wind
blew a gale last night and the glib was
carried away, This was not the only
cause for excitement however for the
first fire drill for practical purposes was
sounded last night. The fuse of the
electric light running into the dining
room burned out and the woodwork
caught fire The blaze was of tiny di-
mensions however and was promptly
extinguished by the second mate who
chews tobacco. Captain Mosher thought
it an excellent occasion to test the
crew so the fire alarm was sounded.
The men rallied promptly and stood
by their posts without the slightest
hestancy or delay.
The steamer Helene was at Hilo yes
terday and the Mauna Loa discharging
at Honuapo Dysentery is reported to
be very prevalent at Hamakua.

MEAT RATE Gun.

There was a cutting of meat rates at
the fish market yesterday and this
morning. The Chinese meat sellers and
Manager Waller of the Metropolitan
Meat Company had misunderstand-

occurred. The Chinese cut their prices
down to cents a pound yesterday.
This was met by the Metropolitan
company who sold 51a pounds for 25
cents. This morning the Chinese were
selling as low as s pounds for 25 cents.
The meat company met this by selling
pounds for a quarter. The low prices
were taken advantage of by a big
crowd and most of the stock on hand
was sold. An agreement was reached
this afternoon by which the former
scale was restored toll and IA cents a

WORRIED OVER OLYMPIC.
Bark Is Now over Thirty Days From
San Francisco.

San Francisco.
It has now been thirty days since the
bark Olympic left San Francisco for
Honolulu. Her failure to put in an ap-
pearance is causing much comment
along the water front and while her
agents II. Hackfeld & Company have
not given the vessel up as lost they are
worried over the long period that has
elapsed without anything being heard
from her. 1t is not an uncommon thing
for vessels TO take 20 and 80 days to
make the run down here during this
time of the year but inasmuch as sew
eral vessels which are not so speedy as
the Olympic have made port leaving
later than the Olympic there is much
apprehension felt.
When she left San Francisco the ves-
sci did not have a big deck load of
machinery and seemed to be in fine
shape for making the voyage. The
month of March is one of the severest
of the year for Seafaring men and 1t Is
feared that perhaps the bark may have
encountered some strong hurricane that
left her in a disabled condition.
A remarkably quick run for sailing
vessel is reported from San Francisco.
The bark Oakland, Captain Ackerman
went from Hilo to Cape FlatJery In II
days. This is very near the record and
is a creditable performance.
