Hiornson's Advice.

There is story told Of Bjornstjerne
Bjornson that arriving at late hour
at the town of Bergen. which was en-
fete to receive him. be vouchsafed to
the expectant people no finer words
Of wisdom than general recommen-
dation to go to bed
In vain they Appealed to him for
'song or sentiment" The great Bis
marck. said he, gave the same advice
under conditions all similar. and what
was good enough for Berlin must suf-
fee for Bergen.
Three years later. on visiting the
town for the second time. the master
novelist found deserted city. Not
light burned in the dismal railway
station. no banners waved. no address
cs were read by portly burgomasters.
In vain Bjornson asked for cab.
"They have all gone to bed" was
the reply. And so Bergen remembered.

Tiny Screws.

Wonderful skill is displayed in
the manufacture Of miniature time
pieces that are used to ornament
bracelets and other pieces of jewel
ry. The parts of these miniature
watches are necessarily as perfect
as those used in much larger time
piece, but much smaller. They must
be examined under a powerful mi
croscope.
Some Of the small screws are only
one twelve undred-and- fftieth part
of an inch in diameter and seven
one-thousandth part of an inch in
length. An idea of their size can
be formed when it is estimated that
it would require about 100000 Of
these delicate parts to fill an ordi-
nary thimble.

BEEFSTEAK.
as It Is Served In the Financial Dis.
trict of New York.


In addition to the mad struggle
for money there is another problem
that besets the habitues of the
financial district. 1t is the hornely
and prosaic operation of feeding
he inner man.
Doubtless it takes away some of
The splendid radiance that is sup
posed to surround the captains Of
industry and capital" but it is none
the less true that the wealthiest
banker in the street must have his
ham and three times a day, even
as the humble messenger boy or the
patient elevator man.
The only difference is that the
ham and of the money baron"
becomes pate de foie gras or dia-
lnond back terrapin. However, that
great American staple beefsteak
appears in a multitude of forms
Town where the golden food is
heing taken at its tide. Perhaps if
one were to award prize to the
most popular luncheon item in the
entire Wall street district he would
pin the classic blue ribbon on Mr..
B. Steak.
Beefsteak, however, is, as the
words Of the famous poem says,
Numerous as the leaves that strew
the brooks of Vallombrosa." For
instance, there is the beefsteak of
the messenger boy, and there is the
beefsteak Of the money king" IT'S
indeed a far cry from one to t'other.
Discussing beefsteak as it ap-
pears, say in the neighborhood Of
Broad street and Exchange place,
one finds sixty-seven different
places within radius of two blocks
where the staple is served. In each
cafe one may find, conservatively
stated, one dozen varieties. The
grand total, therefore, is S04 differ
ent grades, styles, manner or pre-
vious condition of servitude in the
beefsteak family.
The price, too, may well be stated
in verse. 1t is
Variable as the shade
By the quivering aspen made.
To be explicit, there is the steak
carefully removed from the base of
a venerable oxen's hams, which (the
ox) has outlived its usefulness as a
beast of burden and which is served
to the appreciative messenger boy
for 80 cents, one dime" There
is also the cut that carries with it
"French fried and gravy" and
which goes like hot cakes at 25
cents throw. This, is affected by
stenographers and clerks. TheD
for chief clerks and others there il
the old friend at so cents a portion
and on up to 81.
Finally there comes what might
be termed the king of its kind,
found only IN the highest grade OF
cafe. Here the piece de resistance
comes three inches thick and beau
tifully Drowned, decorated with
mushrooms, sprinkled with water
cress and parsley, surrounded by
picked walnuts, juicy, delicious and
luscious, served on a plank along
side a bottle Of wine and a check
for $40. This, of course, does not
include bread and butter.
Yea, there is steak to be had at
10 cents just as there is steak to, be
had at Sc, but, oh, what a differ
ence! Yet all are appreciated

last of August, there should be total
of $4,000 tons or better for the sea-
sons showing. With this in view 1t
is easily understood why the stock has
advanced and in all probability sales
not reported have run above the SAB
figure mentioned.
Hawaiian Commercial did not figure
in any of the reported sales but is
quoted at 1872. rs asked and $32 % bid.
The crop has been completed on this
plantation with a total of $3.50 tons.
The first estimate made by Manager
+. F. Baldwin was $4,000. Later he
raised this estimate to $4,000, a figure
which has been exceeded by $50 tons.
1t is said that the demand for this
stock is coming principally from the
coast and that the Los Angeles people
are becoming interested in it and also
Hawaiian Sugar.
So far as is known here definitely
nothing has been done towards the
listing of either Hawaiian Commercial
or Hawaiian Sugar in Los Angeles
Alexander and Baldwin stated that the
last mail had brought them no infor-
nation whatever in regard to such a
proposition and that the San Francisco
house would surely not do this with

flee The demand for H. c. S. seems
to come mainly from the fact that it
is anticipated that an extra DIVIDEND
of fifty cents per share will be declared
before long. No action has yet been
taken in this regard, however, and the
local office has nothing to say on the
subject.

The stock market today was rather
quiet, the interest being due to the
fact that both Oahu and Eva planta-
tions dropped below $29. All that
was for sale at such figure was quick
taken up, however, and it is under
stood that the low prices came through
unloading to take advantage of prices
which could be snatched up now on
other stocks in the Territory.
