OLD SCHOONER PULLED OFF THE
ROCKS.
Is Afoat ar Koloa With Hold Full Of
Waterway Try to Sail Her to
Honolulu.

1t looks as if the old schooner Twi-
light had as many lives as a cat. Ad-
vices received this morning by the Mi
kahala and Waialeale from Kauai are
to the effect that the wrecked schooner
had been hoated off the rocks at I<o-
loa and was at anchor off that port
The Twilight went ashore at Koloa
late Saturday night She was said to
have been swept on some rocks near the
landing, and her back was thought to
have been broken. Evidently the cap
tain Of the vessel found conditions
otherwise for on Sunday afternoon at
o'clock, kedge anchor was put to
the sea and, aided by the strong off
shore breeze, the vessel sailed off the
rocks into deep water. In getting the
boat off the beach, her sails We're used
and the Windlass was called into play
also to haul on the line running to the
kedge anchor.
The vessel was awash but was stiu
afioat. Her rudder was gone and her
bottom was first thought to have been
stove in. A diver was sent below but
he reported that he could find no evil
denCe of there being any hole in the
vessels sides or bottom, so it is be-
lieVed that the seams have parted and
with recaulking, the vessel can be made

The keel is thought now to be all right
and when the Mikahala left Koloa the
people who had charge of getting the
Twilight off the beach, were of the
opinion that the schooner could be
sailed back to Honolulu to undergo re-
pairs. Such an undertaking is regard
ed as quite risky and it may be decided
to have the boat towed back and repair

Among many interesting yarns snun

how Grant became great smoker If

victories he was seen riding down the

toned the incident of the haIChurnt

1t was net long after that every ex.
press from the north brought the gen.
eral packages of cigars, until there
were 10000 cigars received at camn.
UP to that time Grant had been in the
habit of smoking but two or tbree
cigars day. But with this un1f,n;ted
supply, and feeling that as they were
gifts he could not give them awov he
started to smoke them wholesale and

Noted Woman suftragists.

Even if the women could only sit
up in the gallery and watch the men
eat at the great Chamber Of Com
merce banquet in the Waldorf, they
could console themselves with the
thought that there were some pretty
good woman suffragists among the dis
tinguished guests. President Roose-
welt, as is well known, has expressed
himself favoraby. and the same is
true of Senator Depew Sir Albert
Rollit, chairman of the delegation
from the London Chamber of Com
merce, had charge of the women s
franchise bill in the House of Com.
mons in 1892, and made a powerful
fight for it, the vote standing 175 yeas
to 1872 nays. Mr.. Faithful Begg, anoth.
er delegate from London, has had the
management of the bill during various
parliamentary sessions for the past
eight or ten years. These prove mere
ly that belief in the right of women
to the suffrage is not confined wholly
to visionary and irresponsible radicals

Design That Transforms
Bedroom Into Garden

Now that we have seen realistic lit
tie cloudlets tiecking the ceiling part
OF the newest wall paper we can but
wonder nobody thought of it before
Stars, indeed, whole solar systems,
have been our lot for years, but cloud
lets are much more to the point, since
they show in the daytime. And, prac-
ticaily, it's always daytime in room
whether it is lit by sunshine or some
artificial substitute.
This particular paper which has just
been opened by Chestnut street firm
is the height of a realism. Not only
will it transform a room into rose
bower, but it will give one "all out
doors for an environment. Could
anything be lovelier for dressing
room OF for a bedroom?
The designer has gotten at it in
this way. The paper itself shows
strong iron supports in groups of fours
These are painted deep green and are
fairly lost to sight under clambering
red roses and their foliage. The novel
part of the frieZe is that it comes the
wrong way of the paper. instead of

the paper on the side wall. In these
caps the iron work terminates in
graceful pointed arches, the roses CIV
ing final squirt of prolific luXurlance,

For the three or four inches above
this frieze is hecked with the exquisite
cloudlets. These fascinating little
collections of vapor figure exactly in
this fashion all over the ceiling pa
per, the ground in all three instances
being the same softly unobtrusiye
white. This striking red and green
scheme would tone in finely with
Georgian furnishings.
Exactly the same design is TO be
had in beautiful yellow roses. In this
case the color of the foliage is not
quite as strong, and the iron work
seems to have been painted in a shaw
owy silver tone. The effect is very
different 1t is not as strong and bet,

Science Of Watering Plants.

With a consignment of Seeding ever
greens which | received few days ago
was enclosed this order: Don't. under
any circumstances, water oftener than
every two weeks, bur when watering
soak thoroughly" After studying and
testing this advice found it to embody
the correct principle A little water
placed each evening on plant will soon
evaporate. the surface becomes baked
the fine roots hunt the surface and the
plant is injured instead of benefited
By the soaking method the ground must
necessarily be well cultivated to catch
the water readily; the moisture pene-
trates the soil. drowning the fibrous
roots downward. and the results re-
semble those caused by a good rain 1t
is in harmony with successful irriga-
ton in the West There will be more
gained by thoroughly soaking the
ground around single tree or plant
each evening than giving hundred
the customary pint. My Seeding ever
greens We're soaked to pillow depth and
as soon as the surface was dry enough
worked into dust mulch. Each morn
ing for week the surface looked as if
it had received a good shower, al
though we scarcely had a dew: The
growth of the trees attested the cor
rectness of the plan. A few plants pos
sibly might be found that would not
thrive under this treatment. but they

NEW CURE FOR INSOMNIA.
viii Disappear if You Puff on an
Empty Pipe Before Retiring.

Among the recent discoveries acci-
dontally made is the fact that in
scmnia may be cured if the person
afflicted will but spend a few minutes
before retiring each night putting an
empty tobacco pipe. The remedy is
therefore available to those who do
not smoke as well as to the devotees
of the habit, for it is not necessary
that the pipe shall have been used by
a tobacco smoker. To smokers the
remedy involves no cost whatever,
but of nonsmokers the capital outlay
of the price of a pipe is required. 1t
must be wooden pipe, and curved,
not straight.
Having retired for the night, the
sufferer should lie perfectly fat on his
back, discarding pillow rests, and puff
steadily at an empty pipe until he
feels thoroughly drowsy. The desired
result usually is achieved after about
sixty to 100 puffs have been made. The
putting should be done slowly, with a
deep inhaling movement. The ex-
pelling motions must be made delib.
erately with narrowed mouth During
the entire operation the pipe should
not be removed, as each displacing
and replacing movement tends tc
Wakefuness.
Those capable of great concentra
ton of thought should. If smokers, i'm
agine they see volumes of smoke
and those who cschew the burning
weed will be helped by counting the
ruffs.
AS sleep is often successfully wooed
while yet the Pipe is in the mouth
bowls of meerschaum or clay are not
recommended, since these are liable
to be broken when the coming OF
siumber allows the pipe to slide from
the mouth. Nervous people may be
reassured that there is no danger in
falling asleep with the curved pipe
caught between ones. teeth. SLEEP
always occasions the grip to be re

Secret of Fisherman'S
Luck Is Made Public

An enterprsing man III New tJef
sey has invented a new device for
catching tomcods and according to all
who have seen it in operation it is q
wonder.
Every one who has angled for this
particular fish knows that it will bite
anything but bare hook. It is
matter of record that one fisherman
that when his bait gave out put the
white of hard-boiled egg taken from
his lunch basket on the hook and
caught little tomcods as fast as the
line went overheard.
Any one can catch a lot of the fish.
Skill is shown not SO much in bring
ing home a basketful as in catching
home a boat load.

Cntarrh Pnisons.

Catarrh is capable of changing all the
life-giving secretions of the body into
scalding fluids which destroy and infame
every part they come in contact with. Ap-
plications to the places affected by catarrh
can do little good save to soothe or quiet
disagreeable symptoms Hence it is that
gargles sprays, atomizers and inhalants
only serve as temporary relief. So long as
the irritating secretions of catarrh continue
to be formed SO long will the membranes
continue to be inhamed, no matter what
treatment is used
