PAYS TO BE POLITE.

The following editorial by E w.
Howe. in the Atchison Globe, is well
worth reading:
II have never accepted the doctrine
that the prominent men of this coun-
try spend their time in glcating over
their money. and in making plans for
grinding down the people. On the
contrary. I have always admired these
men. because I know that their rromi-
hence is the result of ability: of prac-
ticing industry. fairness and politeness
little more steadily than their fell
lows. Pick out any captain of indus
try in this country, and, in spite OF his
riches. here are the facts about him:
He is little better workman than the
men who work with him: he is a little
more polite than his associates: a little
more careful in paying his debts: a
little more careful in being fair and
honorable.

ST. SERAPHIN OF SAROFF.
Russia's New Saint and the Cere-
monies at His Canonization.

A most profound impression upon the
Russian people is said to have been
produced by the participation of the
czar and grand dukes in the stately re-
moval of the relics of st. Se-aDhin
from their temporary resting place in
one of the churches Of the monastery
are now permanently enShrined in the
Uspensky cathedral at Saroff. His
majesty and his imperial relatives all
assisted in carrying the cedar wood
coffin through the vast crowd of kneel-
| ing and ecstatic worshipDers. and they
formed the central group at all the
elaborate services, and in the process
siOns of gorgeously appareled clergy
and choristers outside the churches
The rich VeStment5. covered with gold
and silver embroidery, which were
worn by the metropolitan of st. Peters
burg, the bishops sand other priestly
car for this particular occasion.
The newly created saint was a mer-
chants son from Kursk. who died some
thirty years ago, after having led the
austere life of a religious reclue at Sa-
rolf. Besides ready help given to hui
man kind, tradition says that he used
to feed the bears in the adjacent forests,
where these animals have ever since
been held free from pursuit in conse-
quence. He wore sandals of birch bark
and was noted for the simplicity and
purity of his life, which is now contrast
ed in the newspapers with the imperial
ana eccleSlaStlcaI pomp In the midst OF
which his remains have just been sane
titled. The other principal objects of
interest and veneration are a stone,
very much worn by the kneeling of the
saint at prayers. and a spring from
which he drew water and at which cases
| of miraculous healing are now said to
| be of daily occurrence.
Enormous crowds of pilgrims, cripples
and sick folk fiocxed to the monastery
! for this event from all parts of the en-
pire, even from far-off Siberia, and
great numbers had to camp out in the
woods. Not a few also of the religious
tramps who swarm all over Russia
came to join the throng. 1t is estimated
that not less than 100000 persons were
present, and it was matter of some
difficulty to provide a sufficient quantity
of food in such an out of the way place
as Saroff. The aggregate weight of the
votive candles sold to this great con-
course of visitors in two days is given
as eleven and one-haf tons. Many per-
| feet cures effected by bathing at the
spring and during the religious services
have been duly authenticated by the
police and clergy. The blind have re-
| covered their sight, the lame and para
| lyzed the use of their limbs. and the
deaf and dumb the faculties of speech
and hearing. Books on the subject are
being distributed throughout the coun-
try by the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Times.

HITCHCOCK Is ANNOYED.
Secretary of the Interior Says he
Has Received Discourtesy.

Washington, d. c., Sept. S.-Secretary
of the Interior Hitchcock has made pub
lie his reply to President Garrett of the
Indian Rights association concerning
the charges of frauds and Irregularities
in the sale of Indian lands which were
made by Agent Brosius. Secretary
Hitchcock gives Mr.. Garrett a warm
scoring for the action of his association
in making public the charges against
the government officials before the
communication of the association had
been received by him.
The secretary says such course was
not only unjustifable. but was discount
eous to him and unfair to those against
whom the charges were made.
Secretary Hitchcock informs President
Garrett that his charges had been an
ticipated by the department, and had
been given the personal attention OF the
secretary. The rules of the department
had been amended so as to protect the
Indians. These resulted in an increase
of 10 to 125 per cent in the price obtained
for the lands the disapproval of 423
deeds of sale, and the return of 1858, 500
to prospective purchasers.
The secretary says the department is
and always has been more than ready
and willing to accept the assistance of
the Indian Rights association in ascer-
tanning and rectifying irregularities
when properly presented. The secretary
continues:
This department is always glad to
do anything toward the betterment, in
all respects, of the Indian wards of the
government.
There are. however. proper and i'm
proper methods of procedure. and 1
think 1t was not justifiable, but discour-
teous to me end unfair to them, to pub
lish broadcast to the world the material
gathered by Mr.. Brosius, without fur
Their veri1cation. and without his hav-
ing afforded TO the officials, whose repu-
tation he attacked. any opportunity to
explain what seemed to him objection
aba.
1.-The department does further main
tain that its inspectors and other Off
Gals should have respect and confidence
until a clear case is made against Them
and that the present policy of dealing
with the Indians is the result of
accumulated experience and is being
pursued intelligently and vigorously
with a view to the Indians best in
tereStS."

WHY WATER is MUDDY.
Big Well at Plant Is Being Cleaned
Out

The Topeka Water company now ex-
poets to have its big 50-foot well back
into service some time this week. The
walls are up now and the cleaning out
process has commenced. Until this big
we'll is back in service, Topeka will
have to put up with the frightfully
muddy water which is now being
served to patrons of the company
The very muddy water is caused by
pumping in water from the river at
times of fires. The small drive wells of
the company are not sufficient to sup
ply the needs in case of fire, and the
only thing the company can do is to
open its emergency pipe, and take wa
ter right out of the river current That's
why the water is so muddy, and pre-
sumably SO full of typhoid fever.

All the property of the Union Express

ment made yesterday at a meeting of
the stockholders of the corpora ton,
held at the rooms of the Merchants

The negotiations for the new deal

the conclusion was reached after full
explanation to the stockholders Ct the
meaning of the absorption of the small

sheds of the company. At later meet
ings of the Peck company stockholders

WILL BUILD
AQUARIUM
CONTINUED from Page ~

Work upon the putting down of the
line of the tracks upon the Waikiki di-
vision progresses with rapidity and the
outlook is that the extension will be
ready for the carriage of passengers
early in the coming month. The road
bed is now ready without exception,
and the laying of rails upon it is being
pushed ahead The cuIverts and bridg-
es have been widened, and there re-
mains little to be done but put down
the steel and connect the line with the
main road.
AS soon as this division. is completed
there will be commenced work upon
the Kaimuki extension, there having
been reached terms upon which the line
there is to be built as speedily as pos
sible. The intention is first to construct
the line along King street. past
the site for the Mckinley Mem
oriaI park, and thence out the ex-
tension of King street to a point
where it approaches very close to Bere-
tania street, and where plans have been
made already for the junction of theI
two thoroughfares. This is short dis
lance Eva of the KamoiliiH hill.
The line of road will then proceed /
along the main driveway, following it !
the valley of the PaIolo stream
and across the rise until the main hill
on the Waialae road is reached, and
directly up that incline to the top. The
line will end at the crest of the hill.
This will not only open fine suburban
district, but will enable visitors to Sc
cure an excellent view of the bay be-
yond, and Molokai across the channel,
and will add materially to the attract
iveness of trolley rides about the city.
The expectation of the promoter is |
that the line will be finished to the |
Kaimuku hill top by May or June. !
There have been many subscriptions to
the bonus fund, and it now reaches the
sum of $4,000.
