The Basement Palace.

Gretchen lived In basement room,
With Karl and Wilhelm and Franz
Father mother and grandmother,
The baby and Uncle Hans.
But Gretchen played that the dingy home
Was palace stately and tall,
In which she lived a kindly queen,
With her beautiful princess doll.
The doll was the round of broken chair.
In single garment dressed
In Gretchen's eyes II fair to see
And she Rugged 1t to her breast
Her daily portion of scanty food
To Gretchen was a feast;
She played that the bread was turkey and pie
And ten other things at least
Dear Grandmother was fairy WITCH
A magic wand her cane,
Which conjured forth the wonderful things
That palace should contain
Kari and Wilhelm and Franz were kings
With paper crowns their hair
So Gretchen played and Gretchen dreamed
And TO her the world was fair.

One Fourth Of July a gentleman made
me present of canary bird, which I
named Bob. At first he was very timid. but
we gradually tanned him so that now when
we eat we open the door Of his cage, he
flies down on the table and hops to each
plate and takes a taste Of food without
the least fear OF us hurting him. At night
we cover his cage with a shawl and when

Seyrntymile Hydraulic Prop
 OsitiOn Will Prove We'll

The big Seventymile hydraulic com pany, the internal affairs of which have received so much notoriety on two con- tineutS, will be producing gold this year, according to reports from the Yu- kon valley. Modern machinery has been installed on the ground and this will be working. The affairs of the company are in charge of Jack Hale, a New York mining engineer of proved capacity and a Kloudike experience, and he has great confidence that 1t will prove all that it's original owners claimed for it,
 This company, the property of which extends for miles up and down Seventy mile river, is the one that caused the rupture between H. c. Terrence, the promoter, and William Fitzhugh, the mining expert. The details of the row, which at times threatened bloodshed, are generally known throughout the north. Terrence took he property to London. A company was organized and Fitzhugh sent out to expert the ground His report was colored in rose ate hues. It was SO extrayagant that iJ aroused suspicion Aiterward, Fitz- hugh accused Terrence with having salted the property, He was supported iu his conteutens by afidavits secured on the ground.
 There were stormy scenes among the stockholders in London who had put up tLe money for the examination. It was agreed that one more test would be ap- piled to the property. Jack Hale was sent out tO examine it. He made one visit and that lead to a second and the second to the third. The result has been the installation of machinery for the purpose of working the property.
 Former Mayor Woodruff, of Skag' way, more recently an Eagle merchant, sL,s the proposition Is one of the best in sll the north.

ITALIANS
FOR HAWAII
immigration Board Viii!
Try a New Tack
for Labor.

The Board of immigration, as the
solution of the problem of labor, has
decided to put north Italians on trial.
At meeting of the Board, held yester-
day afternoon in the office of Secretary
Atkinson, and attended by Mr.. Atkin-
son and Commissioners E. D. Tenney,
j. H. Craig, J. P. Cooke and j. j. Car
den, resolutions were passed to this
effect.
The application of Mr.. Ham of Koha-
la for position with the board was ia
ing to bring Portuguese and men from
Cornwall as laborers, were read. Let
tiers were read from local Portuguese
in which they deplored emigration and
praised the Portuguese in general.
They hoped that more Portuguese
would be imported.
A motion offered by Mr.. Tenney, au-
thorizing the superintendent to adver-
tise in foreign countries concerning the
inducements here, was discussed. Mr..
Tenney said it was drawn in accord
ance with the Federal law.
Mr.. Cooke said the plantationsofA Alex
ander & Baldwin would take 800 fami-'
lies and give each a lot of one or two
acres and wages of $40, $21 and s22 for
the first, second and third years, res
pectively, with water, medical attend
ance, f1rewood, ETC., and house. A
fee simple would be given to the prop
erty at the end of five years. The mo-
ton passed.
When the Secretary asked when the
plantations would report in response to
lions concerning their inducements for
white labor, Mr.. Cooke said McBryde
and Olaa had replied. Mr.. Tenney
said:
Take a plantation like Eva. 1t
cannot offer any inducement to people
in the way of giving lands to people.
The land can only be used for one pur-
pose.''
Mr.. Atkinson stated that he did not
expect to get favorable replies from all
planta tons.
Mr.. Cooke then presented a reso-
luton to the effect that the Superin-
tendent of immigration be given full
authority to investigate the powers of
the Board to carry on immigration
from Europe. and if satisfactory that
he should be given power to arrange to
import ten to fifteen families from the
north of Italy.
Mr.. Cooke said that the italians
could be sent by steamer via the Suez
to Hongkong and transhipped there for
to Honolulu.
Mr. Tenney considered this very i'm
portant He said that if immigrants
We're brought through the United
States, portion of them would leave
the parties and remain on the main
land.

MISTAKEN DIAGNOSIS.

There are many people who have
pains in the back and imagine that
their kidneys are affected, while their
only trouble is rheumatism of the
muscles, which can be cured by a few
applications of Chamberlain's Pain
Balm, or by dampening a piece of fan
mel with the Pain Balm and binding it
over the effected parts. A pain in the
side or chest should be treated in the
same manner and prompt relief is sure
to follow. For sale by Benson, Smith
