The Same Stock.

People who knew the Huntley fam.
ily. root and branch" always said
that there could be only one other
person in the world as blunt and tact
less as James Huntley-and that was
his cousin William. James lived in
New York and William in Boston. One
lav James appeared at Williams
homo just at dinner-time.
well, this is surprise!" said vii.
liam. You're the last person ia the
world | should have expected to see
tonight! Got tired Of home?"
''You wouldn't have seen me If
could have got through my business
in time to catch the three O'Clock
train" said James. 81 tried hard
enough"
The cousins looked cheerfully at each
other and were quite unaware of the
frantic efforts made by Mrs. William
to guide the conversation into a
smooth channel. Seated at last at the
dinner table, and attacking the roast
beef. the host said:
"If I'd known you were going to
drop in on us this way, without any
warning, I'd have ordered a better
dinner"
Don't trouble about that" said
James, heartily. "It does well enough
and next time I'll be sure to let you
know beforehand"

But one litter is born each year.
and that in May, says Forest and
Stream The number of cubs ranges
from four to as high as eleven. The
average number that reach maturity
is about two or three to the female.
The fox lives and brings forth its
young in a burrow or den about like
that of red fox except that the blue
fox is very fond of digging under the
buildings on the islands. If there Is
a floor they are sure to have one or
two dens under it If permitted to do
so. They will also den under suitable
piles of old lumber. logs or trash of
any kind that will keep the water
off.
They are very suspicious of any
person or thing coming near then
burrows. If they are at all disturbed
while their pups are young, they are
said TO move their young 10 another
burrow. This As one reason why 1t
is bad plan to keep cattle on the
same island with or on that part of
the island frequented by the foxes
and used for burrows. They are not
quarrelsome or vicious like other
foxes. In close confinement they will
kill and eat one of their own kind
that is injured or weak and I sup
pose If starved to it would eat each
other.
It is difficult to learn very much
about their habits where they are
running loose on an island. They now
and then have Scraps Let fox
go where he does not belong and you
will soon hear great racket. You

If in sight will soon see one getting
away as fast as possible, yelping

MISSION WORK IN HAWAII.
Educational system-Results Of the
Labor Of the Missionaries.

Most Americans will admit that 1t
was fortunate for the predominance
of American civilization In Hawaii
that the American Missionaries were
the first on the ground and were
thoroughly established there In ad-
vance of any competing religion, says
the Honolulu Advertiser. They
brought the rugged old tenets of
their Puritan ancestors. They taught
them with intense conviction and
flaming zeal. They soon established
complete ascendancy over the minds
of chiefs and people. In 25 years
their labors had converted the social
system of Hawaii from barbarsm to
civilization; its political from despot-
ism to constitutional liberty.
Hawaii thus became a welcoming
home for civilized enterprise and free
American activity in time for the new
California era in the Pacific. The
numerous mission families with their
churches and schools formed a fav.
oring nucleus for the establishment
of a growing white community Of a
high social order, the parent of the
delightful social status now found ON
all the islands.
Conspicuous among the leading
fruits of missionary labor Is our
splendid system of education which
reaches every child of whatever race,
guiding him into famil arity with Eng
lish and upward toward free educa-
tion in the high school, And here II
is simply due to recognize the efiici-
~ C operation of the Roman Cath
olic mission. Although of French
race, those good men and women
have applied themselves with zeal
and ability to the promotion of Eng
lish education. To attest this is the
great st. Louis College, in which a
corps of highly trained American
brothers for many years have educat-
ed many hundreds of successful pu-
pills. Also the Convent of the Sacred
Heart. whore the sisters have given
pure and graceful culture TO many
hundreds of Hawaiian girls.
The mission also supplies most
wholesome supervising and parental
influence in our large Portuguese com
munity. whose orderly and industri-
Gus character indispensably needs
such SUPERVISING and nurture. In
this and other ways the strong poi'ce
power of the Catholic pastors be-
comes of high public value.
The Protestant churches make the
claim of upholding higher standard
of domestic and social life, after the
New England rather than the French
patterns. AS an example it was
claimed during the epidemic of chol
era 10 years ago in Honolulu that
owing to their superior intelligence
and more sanitary home life no case
of cholera appeared in any household
of the Protestant church members.
But we believe that every Protestant
worker would readily admit that the
of the Catholic religion
has been to them wholesome stimu-
lus to pastoral activity and antidote
to sluggish proclivities. The two
types of the Christian religion are
evidently destined to a long continu-
ance in Hawaii.

colors That Cure Consumption.

The value of light as an agent In
curing diseases is becoming increas-
ingly recognized. The latest develop
ment of the idea is the assertion of
a medical man that the clothes worn
by consumptives should be of a color
which will allow the light to pene-
trate the body. White materials, 1t
is found, are best for this purpose,
and consumptives are consequently
advised to clothe themselves in
snowy raimcnt, either of linen, velvet.
cotton, or cloth. Silk, however, is
barred. Next in curative value comes
blue, but 1t Is far inferior to white.
Materials of black, red. yellow, or
green are said to be useless, as they

OUTBREAK
EXPECTED
IN CHINA
LOCAL CONDITIONS AND UNREST
OF sUPERSTITIOUs OVER THE
COMING OF HALLEY's COMET
SAID TO BE THE CAUSE.
[ur,rup rasse laAanp wIas.l

London, May 2.-Chinese advices
both to the British foreign ONCE and
to the London headquarters of the
various English missionary societies
indicate a situation of the gravest
possible danger for Europeans and
Americans in China.
Though the Chang Sha outbreak
has subsided, it It is regarded by
the best authorities as by no means
over. II feel" says the Rev. G.. M.
Brown, the Wesleyan missionary So
ciety's secretary, that what hap
pened in Human is preliminary to
something of more serious nature.
Messages we are constantly receiv-
ing here show this only too plainly.
The feeling of unrest and discomfort
makes the situation most disquiet-
ing"
Mr.. Browns expression is fairly
representative of the general senti-
ment among those familiar with
Chinese developments. The foreign
office is doing no talking for publ
cation but it is known that the men
at its head are perhaps even more
uneasy than the missionary society
officials. The latter are fearful for
the safety of white men and women
actually in China. The former are
prey to a growing apprehension that
the Chinese are rapidly becoming
ripe for expansion into territories
now wholly or mainly Caucasian.
1t is conceded that local condi
tions, like unemployment, crop
shortages, rice corners and official
oppression, as we'll as the ignorant
masses fear that the coming of Hal
ley's comet portends some national
crisis may be Immediately response
BILE for the discomfort prevailing
pretty well all over China but it is
pointed out that whenever this dis
content eliminates in actual out
break 1t invariably assumes the form
of hostility to foreigners.

WHAT FALLS CITY
FOLKS ARE DOING

After having been fined five dol
lars for maintaining a barbed wire
fence in violation of the city ordi"
nance and given a reasonable time
to remove the same, w. H. Mathews
was again brought into court
charged with the second offense.
The jury brought in verdict OF
guilty and upon default of the pay
ment of thirty-dollar fine, Mr.. Ma
thews was committed to the city
prison to serve 15-days' sentence.
The case of the state VS.. c, o.
Johnson. foreman OF the Falls City
Lumber Company, was presented to
a competent jury Friday, Justice
Hubbard presiding, A complaint
was made by game wardens charg-
ing the company with allowing saw
dust to run into the Luckiamute
river, contrary to the statutes. The
company, instead of pleading guilty
in order to avoid legal procedure, as
they previously did, demanded a
trial by jury. The finding of the
jury was in favor of the defendant;
that the company operated its plant
as near in compliance with the law
as possible.
