The well known German anti
Semitic, Count Pueckler, was fined
f17 los. yesterday by the court at
Glogau in consequence of one of the
eccentricities which have gained for
him the title of the modern Don
Quixote.
Count Pueckler maintains a corps
of mounted dependents, with whom,
when not frightening Jews from his
own estate, he frequently makes ex-
petitions into neighbOring properties.

the new mode calls for an upright ad-

plumes and feathered ornaments of all

is the interesting way in which the hat
comes down over the eyes. This mode
of wearing the hat is especially no
ticeable in the large and medium sized

1t is just the other way about.

Also. it struck me as pathetic, the
thought of these American widows in
their thousands leaving their native
land, coming over in shiploads, to
exile. The mere thought of America,
I took it, had forever become to them

they would leave the country where
lay buried all the JOY of their lives,
seek in the retirement of Paris, Flor
ence, or Vienna, oblivion of the past.
Also. it struck me as beautiful. the
noble resignation with which they
bore their grief, hiding their sorrow
from the Indifferent stranger. Some
widows make a fuss, go about for
weeks looking gloomy and depressed,
make not the slightest effort to be
merry. These fourteen Widows
knew them personally, all of them. I

Jas c. Davis, Esq, Superintendent Of
Public instruction, Honolulu:
Dear Sir-Seyeral sites for the high
school have been suggested, among
which is that Of a lot belonging to the
Free Masons. This site is in many
ways ideal. What difficulties may he
encountered in the acquisition OF this
property we cannot say. There Is, wa
believe, another site, almost If not
equally as suitable for the location Of
the high school. This is the large
lot belonging to the government, and
upon which the Riverside School
stands. There Is room here, we be-
lieye, for both schools without crowd

requirement of other property. we wish
to suggest this location as perfectly
