The Cow Decided.

A peasant living in the village OF Predeal
near the Hungarian frontier, lost his cow.
About ten months after he happened to
be standing at the railroad station watch
ing a train load OF cattle about to be sent
across the frontier. Suddenly he gave a
shout. That's my cow! he cried, run
ming toward one OF the cars.
The tralnmen only laughed at him, and
he went before the magistrate. This good
man listened to the peasants story pa
tiently. Then he pronounced this iudg-
ment: "The COW shall be taken to the
public square OF Predeal and MIXED.
Then if it goes OF its own accord to the
plaintiffs stable it shall belong to him. "
The order of the court was carried out,
and the cow, in spite OF its ten months
absence, took without hesitation the lane
which led it few minutes later into the
peasants stable.

NEW VOL. 45-No. SO.
Tight Hats.

Ingenious men are continually con-
triving new kinds OF shoes, new suspen-
ders and hundreds OF different kinds OF
braces, but so far, says the Therapeutic
Gazette, no one has taken up the idea OF
making hat which will hold on the head
and not blow off and at the same time
not bind the head all around like con-
stricting band.
Some men go without hats at times with
the idea that the hair is impoved by ven-
tilation and sunshine. Undoubtedly this
does improve il, but the prime secret is
not in not wearing the hat al all. The
ventilated hat will not prevent badness
if this same hat be worn tightly around
the head. If string be tied ever so
lightly around the finger the effect upon
the circulation may be easily marked in
the end OF that finger A tight hat will
affect the circulation OF the scalp in the
same way.
Hats which are easily blown oil should
never be worn, as they will not stay on
unless jammed so tightly upon the head
as to impede circulation. All stiff, rigid
hats should be very light, and one should
select size larger than the head meas
urement and correct the over size by
inserting felt strips under the sweat band,
thus giving a cuShion-like effect and
preventing the construction at that portion
OF the scalp.

Suicide by Swallowing Gold.

Suicide by swallowing gold is some
times accomplished in China. The fol-
lowing is an authoritative account written
by very learned Chinese for the West
minister Gazette, of how this much con-
tested farm OF suicide is accomplished:
"In swallowing gold it is notlooSe gold
leaf or gold dust that is swallowed, but a
solid lump OF gold, or even gold ring,
weighing about half an ounce. Gold is
not at any time OF a conupting nature,
but when lump of it is swallowed and
gets into the bowels it fails, on account OF
its intrinsic weight, TO rise and Surmount
the convolutons OF the bowels and can
therefore never complete its passage.
After two or three days it therefore sinks
through the bowels and destroys life with
out any suffering"

The Russian marshal Suvarotf was
famous rs a Jester and was fond OF con-
fusing the men under his command by
asking them unexpected and absurd queS-
tons. But occasionally he met his match
Thus one bitter January night, such as
Russia only can produce, he rode up TO
a sentry and demanded:
"How many stars are there in the sky2"
The soldier, not whit disturbed,
answered coolly:
"Wait little, and I'll tell you"
And he deliberately commenced count
ing, Zone two three etc.
When he had reached l00Suyarolt, who

the name OF the ready reckoner. Next
day the latter found himself promoted.

A solomon like Decision.

A Rhode Island justice was called upon
TO determine the ownership OF brood OF
turkeys. The flock, consisting OF fifteen
young ones, was mothered by Two hens,
a white one and bronze, and had been
running for quite time over two adioin-
ing farms The owner OF the white hen
declared that the turkeys were his, while
the man who owned the bronze hen as
serted just as positively that they belong
ed TO him. The Justice was puzzled. Al
last a witness came forward who swore
that he had seen dog chase The flock;
that at the dog approach the young birds
flew up into a tree and the bronze hen
took to the woods, but the white hen
turned and gave battle TO the dog. The
Justice thereupon decided that the own
er OF the white hen was also the rghiiul
owner Of the brood Of young turkeys.

An Interesting Letter.

We are permitted to publish the follow
ing extracts from letters written by DR..
A. H. Licklider, formerly OF this place, to
his relatives here. DR.. Licklider is now
travelling in Europe, and his letters give
interesting accounts OF the places he Wis
its. In his letter from Oberammergau he
says:
We had a wonderful time in Ober-
Ammergau. We arrived there on Tues
day afternoon from Munich, going down
in one OF the many special trains, all
crowded to the doors with Americans.
1t seemed as if the whole United States
had come TO the Passion Play. At Ober-
Ammergau met people | had not seen
for years, among them the Rev. MIR. Sta
pies, from ST. PauTs Mission in Balti-
more, and Mrs. Ida Neill, who sat only
few seats from us at the play.
We stayed in the quaintest little cot
tage you can imagine, with simple peas
ants. Our rooms were spotleSSly clean,
we took our luncheon and dinner out,
and had breakiaSt-cOfiee, rolls, honey
and butter-n the tiny Sitting-room.
Ober-Ammergau is one of the lovelieSt
places you ever saw, surrounded on all
sides by high mountains. climbed one
on the afternoon OF our arrival, and had
a magnificent view OF the Bayarian Alps,
all capped with snow.
OF course, there is nothing to be said
OF the play itself; you can read all about
that in the books. We arose at half-paSt
five, and went to mass at six. The
church was jammed with people, and five
masses were celebrated at one time, on
as many altarS, with music by a great
choir and an orchestra, beside the organ.
The play began at eight sharp, and
went on, with two hours intermiSSlo1 tor
luncheon, until six IN the evening. It
was very long, and at times rather tire
some, but certainly tremendously inter
esting, and one of the events OF life
time. can't say that il was, to me, eith-
er profoundly religious or moving, but ii
was a great and wonderful spectacle.
We left Ober-Ammergau on Thursday
morning, and jouneyed all day by motor
car and carriage, over the finest roads in
the world, through the beautiful Austrian
Tyrol. arriving at Innsbruck before ten
that night. 1t was a wonderful drive, and
the weather was perfect. After sunset
the peaks Of the Alps glowed with pink
and crimson for an hour-the "Alpen-
glow" that you see only rarely.
Innsbruck has completely fascinated us.
1t lies in a narrow valley walled in on both
sides by majestic mountains. Our hotel
clngs to the very sides of the Alps. In
fact, you can step from the thrd-Story
windows into the gardens behind the
house Behind us the mountains rise TO
a height Of seven thousand feet, and are
capped with snow. ! am writing this
letter at a little table on the terrace, with
the river Inn rushing several hundred feet
below me, and more peaks across the val
lev. all crowned with snow. The hotel
is charming, with terraces and gardens OF
its own, a remarkably good table, pleas
ant rooms, and charges OF about $50
per day for everything.

We had a great week in Venice, and
came on TO Ravenna yesterday afternoon.
don't think ever enjoyed Venice so
much before, although this was my third
visit. We stayed at a delightful place on
the Grand Canal, and could sit all day. II
we liked, on a marble terrace, furnished
in white wicker chairs and tables, and
watch the busy traffic of the Grand Canal.
The house was crowded with Americans,
and met one very pleasant fellow from
Harvard. with whom went about while
the ladies were shopping. The weather
was very hot, of course, but there was
always strong sea-breeze, and ! did not
feel the heat at all, because have invest
ed in this white linen suit OF clothes, and
a panama hat. So keep cool in the hot
test weather.
Ravenna is one OF the most interesting
towns in the world, think. Here are
found the oldest Christian churches in ex-
istence; built over fourteen hundred
years ago and still in good condition and
used for divine service. Some OF them
are literally encruSted within with gorge
Gus golden and colored mosaicS OF the
fifth and sixth centuries, as fresh and
brilliant as If they had been finished yes
terday. Nowhere in the world, think,
can one get such a sense Of the historical
stability Of the Church. II makes the
whole idea yerv real, 10 stand beneath a
roof built only few hundred years after
the very beginning Of Christianity itself.
And was equally impressed with the
nagnificence of the churches OF that very
early period. 1t seems almost incredible
that before Christianity had ever been
brought into England, and long before
anv church was built there, these people
Of Rayenna were worshiping in glorious
buildings OF marble and gold. To give
you an idea OF the tremendously interest
ing things TO be seen, will say that we
saw this morning the sarcophaguS where
in lie the bones Of st. AppoIanariS him
self, VINO was the first bishop OF Rayenna in
"A A. D., and only was disciple OF St.
Peter! don't know only so few people
come to Ravenna, but suppose It IS be-
cause it is out of the way, and hard to
reach.
Our hotel is named after Lord Byron,
who lived in Ravenna two years. The
hotel is one of the most interesting places
we have seen. 1t is built around very
beautiful garden, full OF fine oleanders
and semi-tropical plants, and adorned
with ancient marble statues. In this gar
den we eat our breakfast and our dinner.
Lunch at midday we take indoors, on
account of the sun.
We have delicious things to eat here,
mainly spaghetti in thousand ways,
luscious tomatoes, and the greatest abun-
dance of fruit-peaches, pears, melons,
| and enormous fresh figs as big as large
pears.
We leave here Tomorrow for Florence,
where we shall stop several days Then
to Siena, Peruiia, Assist, and Rome,

A good story comes from New York.
The wife of a prominent lawyer OF that
city was giving a tea at $50, and the huS-
band promised to be home on time to
receive the guests. Along about 5.l5,
after taking number of Scotch highballs,
he thought of the tea, and this excuse
came 10 him like an inspiration, and he
sent her the following note: "Dear Fan
ME, | am sorry TO disappoint you, bH !
have been taken Unexpectedly drunk"

Home rulers
HIT At DENIS
Republicans to Get Support
From NotIey'S
Party.

That the Democratic ticket can en-
pect no support from the Home Rul-
ers this year was made plain last
night, when the Home Rule ratifCa-
ton meeting was held at Aala park.
On the contrary, the Home Rule
strength, in Oahu county, except in II
few cases, will be thrown sOlidly for
the Republican ticket
The Home Rulers have put up u
candidate for Delegate, and In Oahu
county have candidates Tor several
Legislative and county positions. But
a majority of the Legislative nominal
tons have been made by endorsing
Republican candidates, and they are
going to support these without reser-
walton.
There Is no question of this after
the meeting last night. Six or seven
hundred people gathered at Aala park
and listened for II couple of hours to
speeches that grilled the Democrats
to II turn and praised the Republicans.
The Republican platform Is opposed,
but most of the Republican candidates
are enthusiastically supported.
Where the fight promises to be hot
test In Oahu, the Home Rule vote will
20 Republican. John Lane is sup
ported against Fern for Mayor, Cox
against Jarrett for Sheriff and Shinglc
against Trent for treasurer.
McCandIcss Gets His.
Boss McCandlcss was given severe
verbal licking by the Home Rulers
and Mayor Fern did not fare any bet
ter. McCandlcss was roasted for his
boss political methods, while Fern
was denounced as incompetent, ig-
norant and unable to think for him
self, The crowd applaudcd these sem
timents warmly.
Sam PaulO was chairman of the
meeting, and addresses were made by
several of the Home Rule candidates.
Charles X. Motley, who Is opposing
Kuhio and McCandlcss for Delegate
to Congress, delivered the principal
address OF the evening.
Motley declared against assisted I'M
migration. but did not attack KuhiOs
work in Washington. He promised, II
elected, to work for further amend
ments to the land laws and in aiding
IIawaiians in settling.
There is some talk of government

said. III ! am elected, | will do ev-

William Mossman, Jr, paid partiC-
ular attention to Sheriff Jarrett
whom he accused of discharging Ha.
wailans from the police force in ord
er to build up Democratic political
machine, This point scored heavily
with the crowd, and MOssman. warm
ing up, advocated the candidacy Of
Cox and declared that Jarrett does
not deserve consideration from Ha-
waiians. He also hit at Road Super
visor Wilson and ended with COM
parisOn between Lane and Fern that
did not flatter the Mayor.

Senate, made plea for Home Rulism.
lie was followed by d. Kalauokalani,
Sr., candidate for the Senate, who
made a strong speech for Lane, Shin

dates, William White struck pop

eating equal suffrage, stating that II

lowed TO vote, the lIawaiians could
