PAST HAWAIIAN POLITICS
AS SEEN FROM NEW YORK
Stories of the Lady Dog Legislature and What
FoIlowed--The Passing of the Home
Rule BanderIogs.

Here we sit in crooked row
Thinking of people, who have the
dough;
Dreaming of people we mean to do
All complete in a session or two
Now we are going to-neVer mind
Brother, your hand sticks out behind.
At a session of an early Hawaiian
Territorial Legislature-a session full
of rumors of graft-a newspaper man
took advantage of a lull in the pro-
ceedings to scrawI the above and pass
it across the press table to friend
equally idle. In a few minutes he re-
ceived the following reply:
Col. Mazuma comes charging down:
His bright gold eagles flood the town,
And we stand in for share of Delf,
Each dusky brother here for himself,
And the Dell take the hindmost-never
mind
The honorable members were read
ing, interpreting and wrangling over a
lengthy bill. so the original despoiler of
kipling had another chance, which he
utilized to reply with this:
All the funds that can ever be found,
Sinners heavy and yellow and round
Rich man, poor man, beggar man,
thief
They can all chip in if they'd just as
lief
Let's pretend we've-never mind
Brother, your hand sticks out behind!

Eleven of those who favored him with

nominators RECALLED themselves.

The first account we have Of an
armored ship is in 1880. 1t was one
of the feet Of the Knights of st.
John, entirely sheathed with lead,
and it is said to have successfully re-
sisted all the shot of hal day. At
the siege of Gibraltar, in 1882, the
French ana Spaniards employed
light iron bomb-prooing over their
decks. The first practical use Of

French in the Crimean war, in 1853.

Americans Control Many Of the Big
Factories in India.

In 1866 there we're manufac-
tured in India and exported carpets
and rugs to the value Of $1,900,000,
of which $1,500,000 in value went to
the United Kingdom and 100000
in value to the United States. Most
of the finest rugs that were shipped
to the United States of Indian man
ufacture were made in factories con-
trolled by American capital. One
firm alone controls ten factories, one
each in Kashmir, Hyderabad and
Sikkim, the others being scattered
over two-thirds Of India. This firm
employs $4,000 people, half Of whom
are females engaged in spinning and
the other half on the hand looms.
Practically all of the rugs made
by this firm are manufactured on
designs that we're worked out in the
United States, and are intended to
meet the American demand. The
colors used are indigenous, purely
vegetable, and are prepared upon
formulas that have been handed
down for centuries from father to
son. This firm would be glad 10 do
=
their manufacturing in the United
States, but it has been found to be
impossible to induce any consider

HOUSEHOLD WISDOM
IDEAS FOR THE KITCHEN AND
THE SICK ROOM.
Proper Way to Roast a Ham-Simpls
Method Of Preparing Baked Pota-
toes-Making Fire Without
Disturbing Invalid.

When making a meat pie, turn a
cup upside down in the bottom of
dish; when going to serve take cup
out and you will have plenty of gravy
to serve.
TO ROAST A HAM.-Take a new
ham that has been sailed for some
weeks. ii smohed, par6Uii II befoTe
roasting. While 1t is before the fire,
bRste it with white wine and sugar.
When half done, remove skin, stick
it full of cloves and let it roast as
long again, basting it with fresh wine
and sugar until thoroughly cooked.
NEVER STIR INGREDIENTS
When making biscuits or bread with
baking powder or soda and cream
tartar, the oven should be prepared
first, the dough handled quickly and
put into oven as soon as it becomes
the proper lightness. If oven is too
slow, the article baked will be heavy
and hard. Never stir ingredients into
batter, but beat them in.
THE KITCHEN TABLE.-To pre-
vent the corner of your table working
through your table oilcloth, take four
squares of strong canvas, glue a piece
on wrong side, just where the corners
of the table come in contact with the
tablecloth. This also prevents the
table oilcloth from cracking and look"
ing shabby as you often see them.
SIMPLE MODE OF BAKING
Baked potatoes are said to be much
more wholesome than boiled, says a
writer. AS a very hot oven is re.
| quired to bake them, ! thought of a
much easier way. wash the pota-
toes, and while they are wet l put
them in an iron frying pan and cover
with a close fitting ove and set
them on the top of the range to bake,
with a slow fire, turning them once
or more as needed. ] have followed
this plan for years, and like it much
better than the usual way. Try it.
FIRES IN SICK ROOM.-In a sick
room, where the slightest noise viii
disturb the patient, | have found the
best method of making up the fire
and especially at night, is to take
way all fire irons, replacing then
with an old walking stick; to clea'
the ashes from the CRATE, then place
on the fire a parcel of coal tied u
in a newspaper or stout paper bag
which as the paper burns will gentl
fall into place without noise. hay

most restless sufferer.

Young Willie was fond of fish
ing, and did not much care whether
he was trespassing or not so long as
he could indulge in his fayorite
pastime.
He was busy with his rod and
line one day when a gamekeeper
came along and eyed him with none
too much affection.
''You must clear out o thisP' he
said, with a whitening air Of author
ity, "this part Of the river belongs
to the earl of Arlingdale."
"0h, does it? | didn't know
that" declared Willie, and he sub.
missiyely laid aside his rod and line
and began to read.
The keeper went away, but on re.
turning later found Willie busy fish
ing again.

wearing down Of the nib allows-far
