THE magazines, the papers and
the literary Clubs are full Of dis.
cussions of genius. 1t is safe to
say that the subject is as badly
misunderstood as religion. But
there is a plain truth about the
matter that ought to be emphasized
at once before more muddling has
been done. Genius in merely ex-
ceptional ability; if combined with
learning and experience it finds ex-
preston in works that are treasur.
ed by humanity as embodying its
wisdom, feeling and aspiration.
But like everything human it is
liable to perversion and is frequent
ly abused. Genius, in itself, is not
allied to insanity or degeneration;
but may be associated with eithe +
in its lower manifestations. The
greatest geniuses are recognized
as such because they have put their
best work on subjects that lie next

THOSE CUBAN CHILDREN.

Says the DeSeret Ne,CS: The
special board of ofinquiry, which has
investigated the case of Cuban or
phan children destined for Mrs.
Tingley's Point Iona home, have
decided that the children will not
DC PERMITTED to land. The child
ren came from Santiago in care of
n lady agent Of the so-called Uni
versal Brotherhood organization,
and were temporarily taken care
of at Ellis island. 1t is supposed
that they will be returned to Cuba,
but it is not impossible that they
will be given to some other chari.
table institution with religion
approved by immigration authori-
ties.
The hearing was quite sensation.
al. The council for Mrs Tingley
and the children. Mr.. Beckwith,
stated among other things that the
inquiry was no occasion for the
trial of religious issues. He de-
MED the right of the board to
make such inquiry. He alledged
the children now detained were
sent here voluntarily by their
guardians. They left Santiago
in sort of ovation, with flowers
and the like, as children going to
the great sister republic of the
United States. They have been
received here as half criminals and
the proposition upon which Mr..
Gerry seems to insist is that the
United States government shall
by their deportation, affront their
parents and their own home city
and overrule the judgment of the
authorities of Santiago as to the
standing of a school about which
they know thousand times more
than Mr.. Gerry can possibly know.
Indeed, Mr.. Gerry knows nothing.
The Point Iona school, he said
would take care of them, and their
exclusion is therefore most un-
suitable, while the aspersions made
upon the Point Iona school and
Mrs. Tingley, at distance of
5000 miles, are indecent. With
this statement, he concluded, 1--WE
withdraw from the hearing, and
leave Mr.. Gerry and the commiss-
toner's to meet their responsibility
as they shall see fit"
The other side stated that if the
Point Iona institution sis not es-
tablished, if it is not stable, these
children may become public charg-
es, and that, in effect, is our Who'll

contention You may remember
that our testimony concerning Mrs.
! Tingley was offered only after Mr..
Spalding had praised her to the
skies" Then a letter from one
Henry J. Bohn was read, in which
there were some personal allega-
tions against Mrs. Tingley, and the
following statement:
"Your contention that these
Cuban children may become a pub
lie charge is well taken. When
once the authorities of California
learn what Tingle yism means, it
will not be tolerated any more
than MORN onism' When lot of
dupes outside Of Point Iona cease
contributions the probability is
that the madame will get fnanci-
ally cornered, the mortgages on
the property be foreolosed and the
coloney find itself adrift."
Then an opponent of Mrs. Tingley
was heard-one who professed to be
Thcosophist Of rival faction.
He was PERMITTED to make several
scandalous allegations and insinu.
ations, and the unanimous conclu-
sion was reached that the childGen
could not land.
To most impartial people this
decision will appear strange The
children are excluded on the osten.
sible ground that they may posi-
bly, become a public charge. On
that ground every immigrant could
be excluded, for surely there is a
possibility that each newcomer
may meet with misfortune and be.
come public burden. The real
motive of the exclusion was, clear
ly, religious one, and that should
not be PERMITTED to have any
weight in government affairs.
Mrs. Tingley's religion may be
peculiar in some respects, but that
should not bar her from doing
good to children that may need a
home and education.

SILVER AND JEWELS.

Taking and Timely Novelties Of the
New York Shops.
Elsie Bee says in the jewelers. Cir
cular:
Snuffboxes are the novelty new
talked about, and a very handsome
line Of gold ones seen demonstrate
some of the fascination that seems 10
cling TO this old time object. These
are oblong, shallow little cases vel
elaborately wrought in repousse w0
or other handsome finish. Some {
them have on the top q beautiful dec
Grafton in diamonds. King Edward is
credited with the initiation of the
movement toward the revival of snuff
taking as a social fashion, and, while
the fashion is not yet apparent In pub
lie, boxes Of great value as antiques, as
well as less expensive modern affairs
in silver and gilt, are in evidence in
the shops.
Very desirable on ones autumn tINY-
els for filling bottles with liquid are
little silver tunnels. Some are the tint
est and most taking toylike affairs inn
aginable; others of larger size are
equal to almost any ordinary demand.
Many are plain and highly polished
while others come ornamented In re
pousse.
1t may not be amiss to remark here
that among revivals OF past fashions
comes the whisper in the air that
patching" will again have its deyotees
among the fair sex. In this event the
old fashioned silver patch box and
present day reproductions of the same
will be as much an object Of interest
and consideration as the snuffbox is
now.
Fans are smaller and many Of them
fashioned with an eye to attachment
to the long chain. The large fans suita-
bic for the opera and big social func-
tons of the winter give way to more
natty and easily managed little -
rangements. Empire fans, richly e.
GRATED with bone, pearl, ivory or shell
sticks, are in vogue.

JUDICIAL. ARROGANCE.

A case Of interest to ali news,
papers has arisen at Houston,
Texas. Judge Gillespie, Of the
local criminal court, has given
orders that none oc the proceedings
in murder case before him should
be printed. Tie Houston Chronicle
obtained report ofthe proceedings
and printed it. The proprietors
were at once cited for contempt,
and the cause is now under consid-
GRAFTON.
OF this case the Enterprise says:
If Judge Gillespie is wise be will
consider for long time before he
decides to punish the Chronicle for
its publication. Of course, court
can make any sort of an order it
wants to, but it0 power to enforce
the order is u very different ques.
ton, Surely no court has any
power to cnfore any such order
as this. The Constitution of the
United States provides:
Congress shall make no law re-
specting an establishment of relig
ion, or prohibiting the free exer.
else thereof or abridging the free.
dom Of speech or Of the pre- SIS; or
the right of the people peaceably
to assemble and to petition the
government for redress of griev-
ances."
1t would be strange if a small
judge had power that is express
ly denied to Congress. And
furthermore, there is no good
reason for such an order, because
the people are entitled to know
what is going on in the courts.
This is recognized by all the State
constitutions in the provision that
courts shall be open. Courts have
exercised the power of closing
their doors during the progress Of
trials that were considered inde-
cent but even in such cases there
could be no prohibition of the pub
lication of what was learned out
side. In recent case in the Cali
fornia supreme court, although the
lower court had ordered that all
persons be excluded from the
court room exc ept the counsel,
officers and parties, and that no
public reporter publication of any
nature of the testimony in the case
be made, still, Notwithstanding
these orders, verbatim report was
published by reporter, who en-.
tered "per Wis.," or in secret, and
the same was held not to be con-
tempt, the court saying; 1.-The
constitution guarantees to every
citizen the right to freely speak,
write, ETC., and prohibits the pass
age of any law to restain ofabridge
the liberty of speech or of the
press" The learned judge in this
case further says: 1--WE are aware
that there are English precedents
for holding that the court possesses
power to prohibit publication of
their proceedings, but we know of
no decision of this country up
holding this, except where the
publication tended to influence the
proceedings before the court"

in the interest of the miners OF the

important mining camp in the
Territory that indorsed them at

as an indication that the miners OF
this Territory are not in favor OF
this kind of legislation, or are
there other reasons that caused

The Bulletin again advocates the
establishment of a Territorial poor
farm in Graham county, Such a
farm would undoubtedly be better
for all concerned than the present
method of maintaining the poor;
it would also be cheaper. Each
county, as the matter now stands,
is compelled to support its indi-
gent in catch-as-catch-can method
with no system whatever. With a
poor farm established, where all
the poor could be taken care OF
under one system, one manage
ment, they would receive better
attention and it would be saving

at lIilo. laboring In the interests of the
Smithsonian Institution " Washington.
~. &.
Some time ago Director Smith of the
Agricultural Experiment station point
ed out the probability OF success In
mushroom culture in Hawaii, but moth
ing further was done towards the in
PRODUCTION of an edible species Of mush-
room.
MIR. Henshaw. In his letter to the De-
partment OF Agriculture. calls atten-
ton also TO the need Of some good sub
stitute for meat. referring to the Inn
possibility OF increasing the fish supply
In Hawaii.
Since the recent heavy rains edible
mushrooms have been brought into
town from the neighborng valleys and
sold In the market These mushrooms
grow to an enormous size and are OF
the finest flavor. AS on Hawaii. there
are probably one or two species of
fungi on this island which are edible.
and no doubt the Chinese and Ha-
waiians are aware of this.
In his letter from Hilo Mr.. Henshaw
writes:
Some years since the department
made an effort tc disseminate through
the states q knowledge OF mushroom
culture. and to encourage the growth
OF the edible kinds. The pamphlets
published also sought to familiRrize the
public with the wild edible species. 1t
has occurred to me that something OF
the same sort might be attempted in
the Islands.
"There are numerous species OF fungi
already here, many of which, perhaps
most, are not edible. There is at least
one species which grows ON this island
on dead lSoa trees which has been ex-
tcnsively gathered by the Chinese and
used for food; and there are one or
two other species which have the APP
pearancc OF edibility, though am not
aware that any one has actually tried
them.
1T Is possible that experiments at
the Honolulu station In the line Of
mushroom growing and also with the
wild species already established in the
Islands might be productive OF great
benefit to the general population es-
pecially tn the poorer people.
The Asiatics import great quantities
Of mushrooms from abroad, and IL these
could be grown here so much the bet
ter. With meat and fish go high, surely
If there Is region In the world where
mushrooms should be an important ar
tcle of diet 1t is in these Islands.
From the dietary standpoint little or
no meat should be eaten here. but as
matter of fact enormous quantities
are consumed. There Is an excellent
opportunity for some good missionary
work in this direction to be done, pro-
vided you can furnish some good SUBJ
stitute for meat. To increase the sup
ply of fish will be difficult. though
something can certainly be done In this
direction. 1t strikes me that the mush-
room experiment is well worth trial
even IL nothing more Is done than to
Introduce number of the best of the
wild species from the States, and this
ought not to be difficult"

HUNT SHELLS THE:

smelling mud, flourlshes from dawn to
dark a strange industry.
The spot Is makai of the road which
leads to the Channel wharf, and only
recently was the home of countless
crabs and other forms OF sea life which
exist and multiply wherever mud and
coral furnish them with hiding places.
