MAUI AS IT Is-A GUIDE.

Maui is one of the Hawaiian, or
Sandwich. Islands (see page IS of Rand
and McNally's Atlas). 1t is situated
in the Pacific Ocean, directly under
meath the Constellation known as the
Great Dipper. Richardson the great
traveller, maintains that this, in some
measure, accounts for the dippiness of
its inhabitants, but this is an error. Tt
DOES, however, insure the fortunate
jewellers of a copious flow from the
Dipper, of milk and honey, and other
liquids, more or less sustaining. Tour
lists have remarked this fact, and the
present body of intrepid voyagers will
be able to affirm or deny the truth of
this statement.
The principal town is Waikiki, which
is easily found. if a guide is secured
Watluku was founded in 1900 by c. D.
Lufk.n, and by him decided as a gift
to the United States. 1t is bounded on
the North by Lantana-bushes; on the
South by I-antana- bushes; on the West
by LaHtana-bushes, and on the East
by dirt road and wharf. It's popu-
latfon, according to the Census of 1900
is close to a million souls and several
ElkS, though the Census reporter
states that few Chinese were regis
tered twice by mistake. The climate is
mild and pleasing, with an even tenn
perature, though the thermometer has
been known to register on Monday
mornings as high as 112 degrees in the
shed. The industries are various, the
population being principally engaged in
giving away money. The principal
points of interest are the First National
Bank. and the arrival of the steamer.
The excursionists will be shown how
cane is raised on Maui, several in

SONOMA HAS NOT
BEN laid OFF

According to W. q. irwin a Co. tho
agents for the Oceanic steamship Co.
there never has been any Idea given
out by them or from any other authors

The way In which the Sonoma has
been connected with the lay-off has

Carried 1t in His Head

NF the musical geniuses who have delighted the
~ world, probably more stories have been told
of Mozart than any other. The biographies of
this genius read like romanceS full they of
anecdotes of his marvellous precocity. When four
years old he played minuets and learned music
with facility; and at the age of SIX he composed
concerto for the harpSichord which, though writ
ten strictly in accordance with the principles and
technC of his art, yet overloaded with diff
culties that it could not be played
1t IS related that Mozart once happened TO nut
ot some music that he had been engaged to furnish
for court concert so long that he had not time TO
write out the part which he himself was to perform
The Emperor Joseph, who was of a curious turn
CHANGED to be in the composers studio when he
asked, Where is your part? l do not see it among
these sheets of music"
Here, responded Mozart, touching his forehead
Lamented His Fame
MOT all the great composers have courted the
v constant adulatiOn of the world Verdi used
to lament that he unable to find refuge even
for brief space from the reputation that preceded
him wherever he went.
At one time he desired to spend a much needed
holiday at the watering place of Montecatini
When he arrived he found that in one of the apart
ments assigned to him stood grand piano of noted
make. On the rack, by way of compliment, Law the
