FLoRrDAs HOTEL POPULATION.
Philosophically Considered From tha
Local Point Of View.

One Of the least populous among tho
older states Of the American Union.
Florida, presents problem OF govern
ment almost unique in that 1t contains
within itself a population important 10y
comparison with her own that is stilA
not of herself and Is much alien In
training, thought and habits OF life.
The man whose interests and feelinga
bind him to our soil sees the English
man pass who traces his ancestry to
the Norman conquest, and who rules
his partimonial acres by right of a
deed from the sword hand dead 500
years ago; the French noble passes him
the time of day, ara a German may
give him personal recollectious of the
iron chancellor. The broker from Wan
street, whom popuhsts have taught
him to look upon as a natural enemy,
may chuck his baby under the chin,
and the republican leader in the Sen
ate, who has helped to give him am APP
preparation for a neignboring harbOr,
may fish with him all day. These pass
and repass as the seasons come and go.
but we need not look upon them as
mere strangers, because each is neces-
sary to the other.
The Floridan gives to these great
communities within our own the safety
and confidence of assured law and or
der; from these visitors we may learn
the cosmopolitanism that to others can
only come as the best fruit of long ira
vel, and they are, or should be, the
embodiment of a market brought to
our own doors-a blessing for which
the iat.on has gone to the Philippines,

The money has been available for
nearly two months but affairs move
slowly at Washington and there has
been delay for some cause or another
in sending Dr. Cofer the authorizatio
to proceed with the work. The delay
is, in all probability, due to the officials
considering their general estimates. At
ter they shall have passed on this part
of the work, they will send word to
Dr. Golfer to have more detailed plans
and specifications prepared and then
to proceed with the work.
With the commencement of this work
means the Inauguration of the most
material improvement to Honolulu
harbor that the United States govern
ment has yet undertaken. Should the
authorization not come by the Alameda
DR.. Cofer will expect it by the follow
ing steamer. 1t is question of but
a few weeks before the work gets I'M

PRAYER OF THE PREDAcEoUs

L
CIV. f. P. French in Life.)
Now this is the prayer of the Bull and
Bear
At the shrine of the God of Gold,
Where the shadow cast by Christian
spire
And the westering suns effulgent fire
Down a narrow street unrolled;
20 Lord of the Merger and Trust and
Pool
OF Cannon and Greed and Sham;
Man cannot live by bread alone
So, give us our daily lamb.
I'VE need his fleece to keep us warm,
His fat when the nights are cool;
And after all. he's an only child
And twin-brother to a fool
I'VE won't do a thing to the fresh
young sheep
But teach him to gambol and play:
Well feed him on only the best of
shorts
And beautiful long baled hay.
He shall not suffer the pangs of thirst
This woody stray from the flock
For innocence We love and prize,
And always water our stock
1.-THE lion lies down with the lamb
Qnside),
So why not the Bull and Bear?
We will show him cover we'll take
him in.
We've plenty of room to spare.
His mint-sauce let him bring with
him
The long green that's nice with
game
And he shall join our Browning Club
And learn what is in name
Then let us return to our mutton
With current funds (Which is jam)-
He shall have plunge in our deepest
pool,
And come out a steel-spring-
20 slightly Alloyed Auriferous God,
Hear thy humble beasts who prey!
The Knights of the Golden Fleece are
we,
And we worship thee night and day."

SAILOR FELL
FROM ALOFT
AND WAS INSTANTLY KILLED
THIS MORNING ABOARD THE
STEAMER IKE AU HOU.

a fatal accident occurred at the In
ter-lsland wharf this morning. ST.
mana Japanese sailor of the Steamer
lie Au Hou, was killed instantly by
falling from aloft from the mainmast
of the vessel. SO far can be learned
the accident appears to have been the
result of his own carelessness.
The Japanese climbed aloft to the
fore mast head for the purpose of max
ing fast the cargo pennan.t He climbed
up the fore stays When he reached
the point on the mast where the stays
and halyards are made fast he took a
bowswain's chair which he had car
ried with him, and dashed this chair
fast to the halyards. He used a small
piece of rope to make his chair fast
He then seated himself in the chair
and prepared to but the pennant in
place.
1t was necessary to cut the line hold
ing the pennant. The circumstances
indicate that the japanese made mis-
take and cut the rope that held the
bowswain chair. In any event this
rope gave and he fell to the deck be-
low a distance of about 60 feet. No
body appears to have seen the man
fall. Captain Tullett was standing
on the forward part of the upper deck
of the steamer and his attention was
attracted to the affair by hearing the
body of the sailor strike the deck. The
body evidently struck on the back for
so far as cursory examination show
ed, the skull had not been crushed. The
police were notified of the accident and
removed the body to the morgue. An
inquest will be held
The deceased had been employed on
the steamer for several years and was
quite an efficient sailor. An examina-
ton of the bite of rope that had been
used to hold the bowswain chair in
place, showed that the rope had been
cut. The Japanese is thought by Cap
tain Tullett and the other officers about
the Inter-Island wharf to have in some
manner cut this rope, instead of that
which was to release the pennant

A MILES LEVICK POEM.

The Dramatic Mirror Of last week
published for the first time a poem by
Miles Levick, the old-time tragedian.
He called it Resignation" The poem
follows:
There arc whips and tops. and pieces Of
There re are shoes that no little feet wear;
There arc pieces Of ribbon, and broken
And tresses of golden hair:
There are little dresses folded away
out of the light of the sunny day.
There are dainty jackets that never are
There arc toys. and models Of ships;
There arc books and pictures all faded
And marked with the finger tips
OF dimplcd hands that have fallen to
Yet ! strive to think that the Lord is
But feeling Of bitterness fills my soul.
That The reaper has spared so many
flowers
And taken mine away:
And I sometimes doubt if the Lord
That a mothers heart could love them
so.
Then / think Of the many weary ones
That are waiting and watching tonight
For the slow return OF faltering feet
That have strayec from the paths Oh
right;
Who have darkened their lives by
shame and sin:
Whom the snares of the tempter have
gathered in
They wander far in distant chimes;
They perish by fire and flood;
And their hands are black with the direst
That have kindled tho wrath OF Cod
Yet a mothers song has soothed them
to rest.
She has hushed them to slumber upon
her breast.
And then ! think OF my children three
NV babes that never grow old
And know they are waiting and watch
ing for me
In the city with the streets OF gold.
Safe safe from the cares of the weary
years
From sin. and sorrow. and war;
And thank my God. through my falling
tears.
