WAYS OF WREsTLERs.

Ancient wrestlers were permitted to
rub their hands on the sand in the
arena, but wrestlers of to-day are de-
barred from using resin, drug or any
preparation to increase the tenacity
of their hold.
In Gseeian and Roman wrestling
bouts the bodies and limbs of the
wrestlers were plentifuIly anointed
with oil and grease. The object of
this was to prevent hold being Sc
cured by an opponent. Modern arti-
cles of agreement. however, state ex-
plicitly that no oil or grease shall be
used
Ancient Greeks and Romans wres
tied either in state of complete mud
ity. or with a strip of cloth around
their loins Modem wrestlers wear
skin tights on their lower limbs, with
arms and torso bare. In Turkey, how
ever, leather drawers are the rule. and
the grip may be put upon them In
Switzerland the drawers or the belt
may be grasped in order to secure a
hold.

THE SENATE.

The Senate had adjourned yesterday
peared at the door with a notification
that that body was ready to adjourn
without day. Nothing could come of
it, then.
The session opened with the usual
routine notifications from the House
relative to its action on Thursday up
on variots measures.
House concurrent resolution increas-
ing the pay of teachers drawing salar
les of less than $75 per month, passed.
From the Judiciary Committee Achi
reported in favor of laying the Gov
ernor's message appointing inspectors
of election on the table, as it was an
injustice to the Republican party to
confirm the appointments. Lane did
not concur in the report and asked
that the majority report be laid on the
table until he had chance to report.
His motion to that effect carried

strike out the appropriation for the

CATHOLICS AND
Tue RtWVAL|STS

Editor Advertiser: Please allow me
space in your esteemed journal for the
following lines:
Ny attention has been called to the
efforts made by the Central Union re-
vivalists to coax to their meetings
even members of the Catholic church.
So long as these gentlemen mind
their own business they are perfectly
welcome to do as they please. But
besides this, they show a tendency to
become interesting by dealing out
blows on things Catholic and on
Jesuits. The Advertiser of May 25th,
page Z, mentions that Henry Nanpei
of Ponape, Micronesia, has been i'm
prisoned and prosecuted for his faith
by the Jesuits. Is it not cheap trick
to talk to people of Honolulu of things
of far-off Micronesia. which it is hard
for them to inquire into9 As to
Jesuits, there are none in Micronesia
for all [ know. 1t is a German colony
governed by German law, in which
Jesuits may be victims (but not exc
cutioners) of persecution. But if they
needed a meditation on religious perse-
cution, they might have remembered
the way the so-called fathers of their
faith here in these Islands treated
the first members of the Catholic
church. As to the facts in the Henry
Nanpei of Ponape case. before we can
get them, our revivalists viii have re-
ceived their wages and left the coun-
try. Should it interest them, they may
leave us their address and we viii
send them the same.
As to the power of the priest and
the ritual between God and the soul,
those who have only changeable
creed-well illustrated in the Lahaina-
luna creed advertiser, May 26) a
progressive religion, they have no right
to criticise or condemn the Catholic
doctrine, which has the essential at
tribute of truth to be forever I'M
changeable. Settle your own opinions
first and let others have a right to
theirs In conclusion, let our revival
lists take this kind advice to build up
their house with their own material,
not to pull down their neighbor s to
use it for this purpose.
Thanking you, Mr.. Editor, for the
space allowed, | remain,
Yours respectfully,
CATHOLICUS.

THE HOUSE.

If brevity is the soul of wit, then
the sitting of the House of Representa-
tives yesterday morning was the wit
tiest of the present session of the Leg
islature
After the usual routine there were
two things on the order paper, the
first being Harris IS bill to appropriate
$4,000 for the expense of the Lahaina
riot, and the second the same mem
ber's bill to appropriate $4,000 for
the support of the militia of the Ter
ritory.
Harris was resigned to the deferring
of the consideration of the third read
ing of the former, but a brief fight
was put up for the militia's $4,000.
Smith moved to indefinitely postpone,
and the motion prevailed on the fol-
lowing division:

A Husbands Terrible Deed.

Mrs. William McWillams and her
five children, ranging from three 10
eighteen years in age, were slain at their
farm home near Independence, Iowa,
yesterday, and the husband and father
was arrested in Independence last night,
charged with killing the members of
his family. He declares himself to be
innocent.
A dairynan called for milk at the Nc
Williams farm shortly after noon yester-
day. On entering the house, he says,
he found a partly cooked dinner on the
stove and Mrs. McWillams and the FIVE
children dead on the floor.
Each person had been killed with a
hammer blow on the head. Mrs. Nc
Williams was atrociously beaten, and a
few knife thrusts mad been inflicted on
the crushed body.
In the woman's rigid arms lay the
corpse of the three-year.old baby, its
hood, coat and mittens on, and a piece
OF buttered bread in one hand. The baby
had been killed by one blow Of ham
mer on the head.
The other children lay about the
house, dressed in working clothes. 1t
is thought that the mother and baby
we're killed first and that then the chill
dren had been called into the house one
at time and struck dead with the
hammer.
Only the wife and daughter, sixteen
years old, seemed to have resisted, each
receiving knife wounds in the hand.
There was little evidence of struggle.

cruing for several years.

Prenarine for the Execution.

Windsor, VT, Nov. 25.-Mrs. Mary
Rogers, who is making final fight be-
fore the Supreme Court of the United
States to prevent her execution for the
murder of her husband, Marcus Rogers,
is breaking down rs the time for her
draws hanging near. She will be swung
from the gibbet on December 5 unless the
Supreme Court intervenes at Washing
ton. In the meanwhile the preparations
for the execution are proceeding. Sher-
iff Peck this morning denied the report
that he would rather resign than hang
the woman. Mrs. Rogers has until this
week maintained her usual stoical atti-
tude, but now seems to be giving away
under the strain. The guards say she
means and cries in her cell and frequent
" at meal time takes no more than a
mouth full or two. Mrs Rogers is con-
fined in a cell with cell mate, who eats
aud sleeps with her and guards every
moment for fear that she will endeavor
to take her own life.
The same gallows will be used upon
which Mrs. Meaker and Sylvester Bell
were hanged. Mrs. Rogers, however,
is a much heavier woman than the ordi-
nary and weighs nearly 40 pounds
Even Bell did not weigh so much, and
every precaulion will be taken to prevent
the execution from being "botcbed."
The rope which will be used in Mrs.
Rogers execution is of four strands sea-
soned hemp, to prevent any possibility
of stretching beyond the ordinary allow
ance for such tests, and when tho moose
is in position on December 6, two days
before the execution, it will be weighted
down with a bag OF sand weighing over
200 pounds, and this weight will be left
upon the cord up to the morning of the
hanging. A long black bag has been
made to enclose the wOman's skirts,
drawn closely at the neck and tied.
Sheriff Peck will give the word to re-
lease the lever which holds the drop in
place.

Midshinman Meriwether.

Durilg the session of the court
martial yesterday evening in the Cadet
Meriwether trial, Rear Admiral McCor-
mick was challenged by Captain Mark,
the allegation being made that the adj
miral had discussed the case with a
medical officer and would he unable to
exercise his unbiased judgment. After
closed session the court decided that
the challenge was not sustained.
AS stated yesterday, the defense asked
that the body of Mid,hipman Branch be
exhumed and an autopsy performed and
the court consented. Mr.. Robinson
asked that Howard f. Ames, medical
inspector, and DR.. Gatewood be allowed
to attend the autopsy, and explained
that these two men were important wit
nesses for the defense. He also asked
that the examination to determine the
cause of death be made by surgeons who
had not been connected with the case,
saying that the men who had testified
had AL said an autopsy was not needed.
Several midshipmen told of their ex-
perience OF fighting and the impression
prevailed that The officers of the academy
knew it was going on. Generally, 1t
was testified, one of the participants
gees to the hospital.

No Poison in Chamberlain Cough

From Napier, New Zealand, Herald:
Two years ago the Pharmacy Board of

of all narcotics makes this remedy the
safest and best that can be had; aud it is
with feeling of security that any moth
