The Kind Most In Use Where They Comefrom Tropical Rarities.

New York Sun.A great heap of wide-sprea- d antlers la

the window, with a simple black andwhite sign above them which reads," Taxidermist, " is the only street displayof a down-tow- n place of business in NewYork, where hundreds of thousands ofbird3 have been flayed and their skinsdressed for the ornamenting of hats andbonnets, and hundreds of hides of allsorts of animals, from a mouse to a cinna-mon bear or an African tiger, have beenmounted for the U3e of dealers in furs andthe decoration of parlors and studies.The chief part of the business is the pre-paration of birds for milliners.

" What kind of birds do you use most? ""The common sorts red-winge- d black-

birds, reed birds, snipes, turtle doves,orioles, yellow birds, thrushes. Any smallbird can be used. We buy them of menwho make a business of supplying us.Most of the birds we handle are fromNew Jersey, but a good many come fromLong Island, aud we receive some fromthe west and south. A few are imported. "

"What do you pay for thum?""That depends on the fashions entirely.

Two years ago the demands of the milli-ners was for red wings and yellow birds.We paid from 25 to 35 cents apiece, andat one time vre had to pay as high as 47cents apiece for a lot. Last year we gotall we wanted at from 7 to 8 cents each.

"Where do all these fancy birds thatlook like pictures of tropical rarities comefrom?"

" AU from Jersey. By inserting a snipe'sbill in the place of the bill of a crowblackbird, and then combining parts ofthe skin of other common birds, we pro-duce a monstrosity, but if the colors arewell matched the result is attractive to thecommon eye, however grotesque it mayappear to one who knows all about the ap-pearance of birds. It is not uncommonto see in the Grand street windows hatsthat have half a dozen bird heads project-ing from one mass of feathers that mightbe the breast of a swan or the pickingsfrom a second-han- d pillow. The wingsthat adorn some hats are about as muchlike wings as a stovepipe is like a lead pen-cil. But those queer tastes are the makinging of our business. The portions of thebird's skin which are cut away whenmounting a bird naturally for a hat canall be used up in wings by gluing themon a model

Cape Coats Again.New York Sun.

"Men are wearing capes on their over-coats again, " said a Broadway tailor re-

cently, as he leaned against his counterand delved into the inner recesses of hismouth with a toothpick, "and they recailto old New Yorkers the popularity of thecape, and its sudden disappearance, afterthe murder of a young woman up-tow- n

by a young man named Itobinson."Many years ago any man with any

pretensions to style wore a cape. Thegarments were of various colors, oftenrunning t o bright plaids, and they wereworn quite long. A tall man wrapped upin one of these capes and walking alongin thft flark looked like a bandit. Thevwere very convenient, particularlywhen a man went to. the the-atre in dress clothes. He had only toBlip his cloak over his shoulders whenrunning out between the acts, which wasvastly easier than struggling into an over-coat, and saved many a man from catch-ing many a cold. W hen the great Robin-son murder trial came on, however, thetestimony played largely on a cape whichwas worn by a mysterious man, who wassubsequently identified as Robinson. Theythen became known as 'Robinson capes,'and, by George, sir, they were driven outof the streets before the season was over.Until now they have neve reappeared. "

"What is the fashionable cape to-day-

"It i3 a part of the top coat and hangsvery close to the shoulders. It is neverworn separate from the coat, and it willnot do on a Newmarket A sack coat isthe only proper form of coat, and when aNewmarket is topped with a eve theeffect iz anything but fashionable. n

Gardens In GermanyHanover Cor. Boston Transcript.

We have some pleasant gardens in Han-over, but they are now closed for thewinter months. How we all regretted theday when Tivoli shut its gates, not toopen them till the warm spring comesagain! What happy afternoons and even-ing we have idled away here under thetrees, listening to the music of the finemilitary band! Here we came with ourwork or books and sat for hours dreamingand reading. How quiet and peaceful italways is! Even the little children seemto feel the influence of the place. Wherein America would it be so? Where wouldit not be so in Germany.

All classes come to these gardens, wherethey quietly drink their glass of beer orcoftee. It is quite the fashion to give acoffee party in the garden instead of athome, and one often sees a merry party of

" ladie3 sitting together drinking coffee andworking away at their knitting or crochetSometimes the programme for the even-ing concert is so tempting that we orderour supper here also, antl remain till theend, which is at 10 o'clock rather latefor German hours and everybody goesquietly home.

The New Zealand Government ha3offered considerable inducements forestablishing the beet sugar industry.There is to be a money bonus and discrimination of duty in its favor. Inresponse to this offer by the Govern-ment a company has been organizedin the Waikato district with a capitalof 8,000 (840,000). The company re-

quires a guarantee that from 500 toCOO acres shall be annually planted inbeets. It was resolved to offer six-teen shillings $4) per ton for beetsaveraging twelve per cent of sugar,with, a downward sliding: scale ofprice according to quality. Withoutstopping to argue the question we aresatisfied, from a pretty accurate aknowledge of the conditions of laborand production in New Zealand, thatthis enterprise will prove abortive.Farmers can turn their land to m-jc-

better account than raising sugarbeets at a top price of $4 per ton. Alarge and complete refinery has beenestablished at Auckland for refiningcane sugar, and it seems absurd thatthe Government should offer a bonusto ruin this important local industrythe moment it is started, because theoffer of a bonus upon beet sugar wascoincident with the opening of thesugar refinery

LABOR.

A .Successful Experiment by Thomp-son Brothers.

The following letter, dated Kohala,January 31, 1885, addressed to "W. O.

Smith, Esq., Secretary Planters' Laborand Supply Company, appears in theMarch issue of the Planters1 Monthly:

Dear Sir Your circular containingrequest of Mr. Canavarro for informationregarding labor of Portuguese

rhas received our attention. We have triedthe experiment to a small extent, andthus far it seems to work well. We have

i for some time been satisfied tnat sucn a' system was the only one by which the laborer could much increase his income andthe planter insure himself a profit. Itseems that a man by working hard, as thePortuguese do, can take good care ofabout fifteen acres of plant cane and thefollowing ratoons. Our terms have beenas follows: We furnish land free of rent;furnish seed for the first plant; pay alltaxes; furnish agricultural tools, to bekept in repair, returned or replaced, andfurnish such dwellings as are on theplantation. They to furnish their ownhorses and harness. We let the man whohas the contract draw to the extent ofgood fair wages so that should they at anytime prefer their wages to their contractthey may take them, but should 'theycontinue to the harvesting of their crop, as

I no doubt they will, the money advanced to! be paid from their portion of the proceeds.j These wages to be paid when they are enI gaged on their cane and not to be drawn. when on outside work. We pay one-ha- lf

of the harvesting, and each to pay for his; own containers. We give to the plauter

one-quart- er of the entire crop and furnishflumes to transport cane when possible.You will see that upon these terms ifplant cane produces three tons per acresold at 590 net, $270 is received, of whichthe planter receives 267 50, or about$1,000 on his fifteen acres, from whichdeduct one-ha- lf of harvesting at $10 perton,.$225, and you have $775 for his firstcrop, besides naving at least one-imr- u oi

j hi3 time for other work, when he can com! mand one dollar a day, which would makehis income over $S00, with an increase of

I say one-ha- lf more after he begins torealize from his ratoons. I have no doubtthat we could, find such employment forquite a number good steady men. Ofcourse, where a number of such contractsaie made, some arrangement as regardsgrinding would have to be decided uponas it would be impossible, or at least verytroublesome, to divide the sugar aftereach grind of so small a lot, so that thedensity of juice and number of clari tierscould be kept on record, and at the end ofthe crop divide in accordance. It wouldbe better for a number of contractors totake a large piece in common, but they donot seem to get along very kindly whenin partnership. The party giving theland should also, in order to insure himself, both in the faithful carrying out o

the contract with the mill, for which he isresponsible, and the thorough and workmanlike planting and cultivating of thecropu, have the right of general supervision, but only to interfere when it isnecessary for him to do so to protect hisinterests. I remain yours truly,

in the coming minstrel season, and the ques-

tion of seats has become an important one.We have been requested to explain that noseason tickets will be sold, a uniform ad-

mission price of SI for each performancebeing charged. But inasmuch as somemight prefer having choice of seats daringthe short season in Honolulu, the manage-

ment deem it fair to all to auction the seats.By paying a small premium for choice, pur-

chasers may select their seats. This willprevent anything like favoritism, andshould satisfy the amusement-lovin- g pub-

lic. If an extra charge was made for specialseats, a season ticket would cost more thanit will under the auction plan.

CHRISTIANITY IN JAPAN.

The intimate relations now existingbetween Hawaii and Japan rendersevery fact regarding the great insularempire of interest to this, country.When General Grant was received bythe Mikado he was asked what hisopinion was regarding the adoption,by Japan, of the ideas and politicalsystem" of the We3t. Grant advisedthe Emperor to make changes slowly.There was always danger in hasty political change. The greatest of American citizens, as he was regarded bythe Emperor, would not have changedthe feudal system all at once, butwould have proceeded cautiously, aswas done by England, " where freedom slowly broadens down fromprecedent to precedent. But Japanwas then in the vortex of politicalchange, and could not call a halt.The feudal system went by the board,despite Grant's advice, and a neworder of peerage ha3 been established,modelled on that of Europe, to supercede the feudal chiefs.

When King Kalakaua was receivedby the Sovereign of Japan he gavevery different advice to the Emperor.In effect, he said: " Let your peopletake part in the work of governmentas speedily as possible." This wa3sound constitutional advice, and it isbeing acted upon. Japan will soonhave a representative Assembly, whenthe people, through their tlelegates,will participate in the government ofthe country. The Hawaiian Kinglikewise remarked that the full recog-nition of ihe Independence of hiscountry by the Western Powers wasbecause Hawaii had accepted Chris-tianity. It was a Christian State,and was as fully and completely independent as the most powerful nation of Christendom. This was evidently the key to the solution of theextra-territori- al difficulty in Japan.Should. Japan officially become aChristian nation there would be nopretense on the part of the WesternPowers to establish and maintainConsular Couits as they do in China,Siam, Morocco, and even at Constanti-nople itself. And there is every prob-ability of this event happening.The native press of Japan have re-

cently taken up the point, and withtheir usual astuteness, they discuss itin a very practical spirit. They de-

sire the absolute independence of theircountry, but they see no immediateprospect of it except by swinging intothe line of Christian States. Free-thinkers almost to a man, they onlylook at the material advantages ofsuch a change.

But outside testimony is not want-ing that Christianity is making rapidstrides in Japan. The MissionaryHerald for March contains a gooddeal of suggestive points bearing uponthis. The editor states that " One ofthe marked features of the missionarywork in Japan is the fact that thewomen are not only readily reachedby the truth, but they-- are comingforward as fellow-helpe- rs in the evau-gelist- ic

efforts of the churches. Thecontrast between the position ofwomen in India and Japan is verygreat. A recent letter from MissDudley, of Kobe, says : Could youhave looked with us last month on acongregation of women gathered inthe Kobe church, where two hundredand twenty-fiv- e were present, sixteendifferent churches being represented,the meeting being presided over by aJapanese lady, wife of - our Kobepastor, where all the business wasconducted by native women, and allin an orderly, dignified manner, youweuld feel as we do, that it pays towork" for this generation. It is simplywonderful.' "

In another paragraph the editor ofthis publication states that the pil-grimages in Japan were lately decreas-ing in popularity. The annual festi-val of Nishi Hong Wanji, in Novem-ber last, drew from the country onlyeight hundred and thirty-seve- n pil-

grims, in place of the usual tenthousand of the preceding years.The assigned cause is partly the fail-ure of Buddhism to hold its ad-

herents, and partly the severity ofthe times. The Japan Mail statesthat the Prefect of the province ofCochi is much distressed on accountof the spread of Christianity through-out his province, and has expressedhis fears to Count Yamada, whoshares his distress in this matter. Itis said, however, that Count Saigo,to whom the facts were reported, wasas much pleased as the others weredispleased by the state of the case.

From these indications it is safe toconclude that Japan will very speed-ily perfect its political and socialtransformation by becoming a Chris-

tian empire. That event would be ofincalculable gain to Hawaii, whichcould obtain industrial settlers fromJapan thoroughly imbued with theprecepts and moral sentiment of theChristian faith.

RETAIL SPIRIT LICENSES.

The Privy Council took a new andImportant departure yesterday byauthorizing tbe issuance of retailliquor licenses outside Honolulu. Ifthe discretionary power entrusted tothe Minister of the Interior be wiselyexercised, as we assume it will be, noexception can be taken to this course,if it be once conceded that the sale ofliquor is to be permitted at all. Ilesidents on the other islands have quiteas much, right to drink, if they please,as residents of Honolulu ; and by recognizing this fact tbe Privy Councilplaced Itself in accord with enlightened public opinion.

It occurs to' us, however, thatlicenses should only issue to responsible persons. If granted to in esponsible parties great evils would result,because the provisions of the liquorlaw would be systematically ignored and drunkenness encouraged.Another point occurs to us, althoughit is a matter of detail. We referto the authority granted to issuetwo licenses for Wailuku. Theproposal raises the point whetherit would not be better to confinethe licenses for this part of "Mauito Kahului Instead of licensing storesin Wailuku. The objection to grant-ing licenses for Wailuku Is that it isthe center of a large sugar-plantin- g

district, and that there is alwaysmore or less danger of loss by firing thecane-fiel-ds through careless smoking.The risk from fire is decidedly greaterif plantation hands can easily procuredrink. Moreover, it would be nohardship upon residents in that sec-tion of Maui to go to Kahului fortheir liquor. It is the shipping pointof this large district, is more centralthan Wailuku, and has the advantageof being cut off from tho cane-field- s

by a broad belt of sand, thus lesseningthe risk of accidental fire frm thecarelessness of inebriates smoking.This is puttiag an extreme case, ofcourse ; but it is a point which willcommend itself to the planters. Andwe have no doubt their wishes in thematter will be respected by the Gov-ernment.

On the moral side of the questionsomething may be said in this con-nection. It does not necessarily fol-

low that drunkenness will be in-

creased by the issuance of these out-

side licenses. On the contrary, itshould have an opposite tendency, be-

cause a licensee would have a directinterest in preventing the illicit saleof intoxicants. A retail spirit licensecosts $1,000 a year, and this sum issufficient inducement to the personholding it to see that as far as possi-ble unauthorized sales of spiritsshould stop. Take for example theisland of Kauai.1 A person travelingover this island may stop at eighteenChinese stores, at any one of which"spirits may be bought, although thereis no license to sell. Chinese likewisepeddle all over the islands the vilestkind of brandy, costing in France 10

cents a bottle, and specially manu-factured for consumption by aborigi-nal races. In addition to this, thenatives distil and drink okolehau,which is one of the worst kinds ofardent spirits ever made. For thesereasons. we hold that drunkennesswill not be increased by the issuanceof outside licenses, and therefore theargument againsCit on moral groundsdoes not affect the. general question.In addition, licensed houses will sella superior quality of spirits and chargea high price for it.

Looked at from a social point ofview, a good deal might be said onboth sides of the question. What isneeded is to enforce the liquor law.This would prevent excesses of anykind. "Prohibition" does not alwaysprohibit, but if it did, it is not thepolicy. Our business Is to make the

while 1 am not going to Bay that this is not the best plan of educating a young horse, Iwill say that it is not the plan that I have always practiced ; and furthermore, I will sayto anyone, either professional or that in handling your colt, if you willuse persuasion instead of coercion, and try and make his first lessons a pleasureto him instead of a task, and induce, instead of compelling him to submit to your wishes,that I will stake my existence that you will soon find your colt studying the same practiceas yourself of trying to please you, and make your work as much a pleasure an it iapossible for him to do.

During the last few years there has been great advancement made in horse-breakin- g, aawell as in everything else. Note the old plan of school teaching half a century ago aacompared with the plan of the present day. I well remomber hearing my father tell otthe way, when he went to school, that the teacher adopted for correction, lie had longbirch whips, brought in by the armful, and thrust them into the fire and partially roastedthem to make them tough a common birch whip without being toughened in the abovemanner being considered by no means effective enough for correcting the ordinary roys-terin- g

schoolboy. Now, we only think of the above plan of education at the presenttime to smile at, men having learned that milder means are more effective and lasting.The same measure of advancement has been made in the handling of colts. Tbe oldmethod of breaking in a colt meant a season's hard work at the plow, and other modes ofheavy pulling in the field before he could be trusted to assist in taking the family tochurch on a Sunday. Nowadays, with the advancement that has been made in themethods of handling, we are able to learn a colt more in the way he should go in a fewweeks than he could acquire in the old way in as many months.

Some years since the Rev. Wm. II. II. Murray, an eminent divine of Boston, wrote avery elaborate work entitled "The Terfect Horse," in which he devoted a very long chap-ter, covering about seventy-fiv- e pages, to the above mentioned subject, "IIow to Train aColt." The work throughout was very interesting and instructive, and one desiring itcan obtain it from me to read. The reverend gentleman who was, by tho way, a class-mate of our Chief Justice at Yale College) seems to understand the Bubject very welland I think that his plan would work well enough on a colt that had been brought up ina sort of way, and one that can tell you by his actionsalmost as plain as if he could talk, that if you do not want your toes trod uponyou must get out of the way when he comes along. Even then I think it would takaabout a year to break one colt by going through all of the different modes that he recom-mends. I3ut life is too short for me to practice any such system, as I would probablyhave about twenty wild colts broken and turned over to their respective owners by thetime that he would have given his colt about two lessons, and yet I would be Just as kindwith mine as he would be to his.

The usual plan that horse-breaker- s. adopt is to have their vehicles and harnesses madeabout two or three times as heavy and strong as are used for broke horses, bq that afterbeing hitched up their colts can kick, run, rear and plunge, and throw themselves downwithout being able to do any damage by breakage, and after fighting it out with them fora few days, or weeks, perhaps, they finally, if they are not of too rebellious a disposition,become accustomed to the use of the harness, and after a few months of service, becometolerably well broken. Now, .this plan seems to me very much the same as it would ba tosend a policeman after a prisoner without allowing him to have any weapons to capturehim with, telling him that he must overpower him by main strength and awkwardness.

Sly plan is never to hitch a colt up until the fear is all out of him, after whieh I findan ordinary cart and harness quite sufficient; and as to kick straps, I never use them un-less it is on an inveterate kicker, act I have never had a colt kick in harness yet that I waabreaking. Yearlings can be broken in with perfect safety, as at that age they very readilysubmit to the guiding process, and are always afterwards safe and reliable. The practiseof breaking yearlings to sii.gle and double harness has long been in voguo all over tbeStates, and the results have been so satisfactory that at present, in all of the large breed-ing establishments, the weanling colts are being regularly broken in with the samesatisfactory results.

I have now on hand at my headquariire, corner of Queen and Punchbowl streets,twelve head of colts, from yearlings to mature age. Some of them I have only bad twoweeks, and I will drive any of them single or double to a top buggy without blinds; and Iwill also ride any of them without saddle, bridle, 1 alter, strap, or string even, and carry alarge carriage umbrella over thtm at the suiue tiuu-- . And I will do the same thing withany horse that any one may bring me in the same lime, or else not charge a cent, as I amready and willing to take all chances of failuie. Of course, I do not consider thembroken at this stage of development, a it takes con iderable time to perfect them in the.way of going cn the road, and to familiarize them wrh obiecta that they meet; but at thsame time I think that it is carrying thern along pre: (y fast in their education, and thatthey are on the right trackTfor becoming Hate, fntlo and obedient family horses, whichis surely just what every one wishes their elu to become. I also think that some ofthem are better broke already than a great many horses that have bet--n worked a year ormore in our streets. I notice, too, that my colts shy much less now in passing heavyloaded drays, etc., than many horses that look as thoui'li they had been at work for year aand years in the carriages.

What Prominent BaiiutM Hon Haveto fiay on tbe Subject.

The announcement in yeu-- r Jay's Adve-rtiser that the Privy Council, at its meetingon the 9th instant, had aa:horiz- - d the issu-

ance of outside spirit licenses, was the sub-

ject of general comment in th city to-da- y.

A representative of this paper was detailedto interview leading spirit merchants, andascertain their views of the subject. We ap-

pend a synopsis of these interviews.MESSRS. FrXETH & PEACOCK

Were first visited. They were invited toexpress an opinion regarding the probable-effec- t

of the new licenses upon the revenue.TLey replied that the granting of licenseswould not increase the revenue, because thefines now enforced for illegal selling in thecenters proposed to be licensed were greaterthan the amounts that would be receivedfrom licenses. One man was fined $2,000 ineighteen months, besides other cases. Thesale of spirits under a license would not im-

prove the quality of the liquor. The nativesa lir-i- li.juur.

" Would it nut have a tendency ti checkthe consumption of liquor by confining thesale to IteiM.svd houses only ? "

" On the contrary, it would increase theconsumption of liquor on the other islands,because under a license liquor would be soldcheaper, and the same amount of capitalwould bo invested in the trade. Section 18,Laws of 1882, will render void-an- advantagethe liccuse might give the licensee. A

licensed trade would increase the sale ofliquor distilled by the natives from ki rootand prickly pear. If there were an efficientpolice force the sale might be regulated."

This firm did not think the license systemwould affect their business much. The lossof revenue through illicit distillation equals$3 per gallon, besides incidental losses todealers, as freight, commission, etc. "Okole-ha- u

" was distilled at $1 per gallon. Therewas an uulimited supply of raw material.

The Chinese firms importing " Sam Su "direct are : Wing Wo Chan & Co., Wing WoTai A. Co., Quong Lee Yuen & Co., HungLung Kee & Co., and Quong Sam Kee & Co.

Freeth L Peacock pay $35,000 per annumto the Government in duties.

MESSHS. BBOWS & CO.

Were next interviewed. Mr. Frank Brownsaid he thought the issue of licenses by theGovernment on the other islands would di-

minish the sale of liquor, because thelicensees would see to it that illegal sellingwas stopped. It was very easy to evade sec-

tion 18 of the liquor law. The revenue wouldbe increased, because licensed dealers wouldhaul up illegal dealers under section 34 ofthe act. It would be to their interest to doso. Natives drink gin because it is cheaperand smoother than ether liquor. They do notcare for the fiery liquid. The natives donot drink now as much as before. The Chi-

nese now sell liquor openly. In his opinionthe police were inefficient.

In reply to another question, Mr. Brownsaid there would certainly be no loss to therevenue, because the licensee was not goingto put himself in the hands of illicit manu-facturers.

This firm has been in the liquor businessfor 13 years, and Mr. Frank Brown helpedto frame the present liquor law.

MESSRS. LOVEJOY &, CO.

Said that for their part they would prefernot to have outside licenses granted. Therewas danger of the licenses falling into im-

proper hands. It would not stop theillicit sale of liquor. They did not think itwould pay licensees to keep men in their em-

ploy to look out for illicit manufacture orto act us detectives for the sale of liquorwithout a license. There would probablybo a loss to the revenue. The trade in Hono-lulu would bo lessened, as liquor would beimported direct to Kahujui and Hilo.

MESSES. MACFARLAXE & CO.

Mr. Henry Macfarlane was seen by theAdvertiser reporter and interviewed. Hethought the issuance of licenses would workwell as a whole. It would bo very necessary,however, that licenses should only begranted to good men. He thought the ef-

fect would be, if any, to diminish the 3ale ofliquor, as the licensees would take care thatthere was much less sold by unlicensed per-sons than there was at present. He thoughtthe idea of auctioning off the licenses,which had been talked of, was a mistakenone, as a combination could easily be made,by the employees on a plantation, for in-

stance, to outbid others who wished to pur-chase the license in order to restrain thesale of liquor. Of course th3 Governmentcould not lend itself to any scheme of rais-ing a revenue on fines imposed on illegaldealings in liquor in preference to issuinglicenses. The whole matter was an experi-ment, and licenses should only be grantedto men who would use without abusing theprivilege.

MESSRS. E. HOEFSCHLAEGER fc CO.

Mr. Mehrtens of this firm said he had notgiven the question a great deal of thought,but was of the opinion that the issuance oflicenses would tend to regulate the sale ofliquor more than heretofore. As to whethetit would increase or diminish the amountsold, he was not prepared to express anopinion.

A Xew Article of Commerce.Mention was recently made in the Advj-.r-

Tisr::s of the grout succes of Messrs.. Mirles.Watson & Co.'s 4imud presses." They arecalculated to increase the profits on sugar-makin- g

very considerably. These pressessqueeze the last drop of moisture out of therefuse in sugar making, leaving a solidcake, about, half an inch thick, of a sub-stance which is destined to become au im-

portant article of commerce. This refuse,or compressed "mud," is fod to hogs, bywhich it is relished, and is very fattening.Doubtless, cattle would thrive on it as theydo upon linseed cake, from which the oil hasbeen expressed by hydraulic pressure. Ithas not yet been tested as a fertilizer, butthere can be little doubt of its value, moreespecially upon sugar lands. A sample ofthis sugar cake, as we prefer calling thesubstance, has been sent to the Advertiserofiice.

The crew of the H. Y. and B. C, withtheir trainer, Mr. Seelty, were out last evening, pr.ictisiug in their new racing boat,'brou,;i.t from Hongkong by the bark Ceylon.

EMPORIUM

Ruth XlaJl in Outing.I beard a sharp ring on the frosty way,

And I catch the gleam of a cycle bright,Just a glimpse of a form in Quaker gray,

And then, the dear boy I he is out of sightAn, out ana away, ere the sun is high,

While the early clouds are all rose andEearl, like a wine that is bright anddry;

And I'm only a girL

I think of the hollows where leaves lie dead;Of the gaunt trees' shadows against the

sky;Of the cool, clear stretch of blue overhead,

And the low, lush meadows he rattles by.I look on the road with its dusty track.

Where the wind-gas- ts meet to whistle andwhirl:

And yes, I may look for his coming back,For I'm only a girL

I may watch and wait all day for the ringOf his pretty playthings glistening steel;

And, dressed in my gayest, may sit and singOver my work till I hear the wheel,

Then I shall see the eyes o' my lad,And he a cheek and a drooping curl :

And well, yes perhaps I m a little glad,That I'm only a girt.

A Scene In Actual Life.New York Letter.

There are moving sighta in actual lifeat every turn, and with sad qualities whichdepend on no prepared devices for effect.William II Vanderbilt sat at an upperwindow of his mansion the other morningwith a tfsce so glum that I called a friend'sattention to it

uDo you suppose it possible that he seri-ously feels the heavy loss from the depre-ciation in his own stocks and the financialruin of one or two of his sons throughspeculation! n I asked.

"Possibly he does, " was the reply, "forthe shrinkage in hi3 wealth cannot be lessthan $30,000,000 if we reckon from thehighest quotations of the past down to thelowest of the present. Besides, he has hadto actually part with somewhere from$5,000,000 to $7,000,000 to make goodhis sons' disastrous ventures. But lookacross the street There's a sight thatought to make him quite content with thesons and the hundred millions which areleft to him. " .

Directly opposite the block of Vander-bilt residences in Fifth avenue is a RomanCatholic orphan asylum, standing backfrom the famous street; and down the In-

clined walk toward the gate came awoman and a little boy. That she wasa mother in poverty and he a half-orphane- d

son, whom cruel fate and beneficentcharity combined to take away from her,was apparent at a glance. The partingwas a . breakage of the two fond hearts,that w&3 clear, else the woman would nothave hugged the boy so desperately norfee have clungto her a to his last hope ofhappiness. Then a sister, in the sombergarb of her order, emerged from theasylum, spoke a few words to the sorrow-ing ones, gently separated them, sent themother away, and led the boy indoors.Vanderbilt'a eyes rested on this incident;but whether it made his los3 of millionsseem a trivial mishap I do not know.

It is difficultfor me to analyze the 'why' of every ac-tion, but I know, and that is enough. It13 the fact, and not the multinidinou3reasons for the fact, with which I amconcerned.

UI think the signatures that demand themost attention are those of a theatricalcompany. They are made usually in onehand and that a very bold one and theycover generally a whole page, unless theclerk 13 less pleasant than usual.

fect, and, were they wise, would not boastof it. Likewise I must say just here thatone who makes exquisitely clear copyought to glorify the act; neither faculty isof itself evidence of transcendent ability.By the same token a person who registersin a scrawling manner i3 not to be sup-posed a brilliant fellow. He may be, buthas not been such, I think, in a major-ity of the instances that have come undermy observation.

" The average traveling salesman has apronounced hand. He generally writesas if he were in a hurry, but it is a sort ofintelligent hurry.

Thedrug and the hat drummer are of thelight, airy variety, and disclose theirspecial occupation by a light ard airyway of signing.

" I have been much impressed with therapid, straggling hand of the man ofmeans who travels. Whoever in theparty signs the register it is signed withprominence. There is no hesitation, notimidity, no undue assertion. Ministersof the gospel usually sign with a scholarlyhand. Stenographers usually finish witha cross, the dot of their system. Manypeople come here race week. They areall sorts. The signatures of this crowdgive me more trouble than all the others.They, are written very carelessly and in avery horsey manner.

1,000 or more." The telndeer is as muchbeloved by the Lapp as his pig by theIrishman, and the reindeer often sleep in'ahut in much the same fashion. .TheLapp will whisper to his reindeer whenharnessing ftilm to his sleigh, and willtell him where he is to go, and declares heunderstands him. The reindeer is muchlike & stag, only smaller; all the people,animals and trees in Lapland are diminu-tive, the men are mostly under five feethigh, and the women under four feetnine inches, so great are the rigors of theclimate in this as in all countries underthe arctic and the cows, sheep and goatsare small in proportion. "

In summer the reindeer feeds upongrass, and give excellent milk; in thewinter they teed upon moss, which theyscratch up under great depths of snowwith marvelous instinct When winterdraws near great numbers are killed, and

, the flesh is dried and smoked to providefood when the ground is covered withEnow, and but few birds, like ptarmigan,?artridges and capercailzie, are met with,

is very nutritious, and after acourse of grass feeding it la surprising howsoon the reindeer become fat and plump.The skin makes their dresses and boots,the sinews their thread and fishing lines,and the horns their spoons and domesticutensils.

Exchange.Recent researches have shown that

rapid motion has a remarkable effect indestroying the organic impurities in water.This leads Mr. Mattieu Williams to re-

mark that the steamboats on the Thames,of which complaints have '.been made be-cause they disturb the bottom, are reallyvery valuable agents from a sanitarypoint of view, for the violent agitationthey produce. The steam-tu- g whichagitate otherwise stagnant canals "mustalso be regarded as great benefactors.

Where Meteorites Originate. -'

Exchange.Professor R S. Ball, astronomer royal

of Ireland, declares it to be his belief thatthe masses of stone and iron which fall tothe earth as meteorites were originallythrown out by terrestial volcanoes at a re-mote period in . our planet's geologicalhistory. If so, the fragments ' mu"st havebeen projected beyond the influence of theearth's attraction by explosions givingthem the tremendous initial velocity ofsix miles a second.

As far as the cigarette introduces youngpeople to that terrible, deadly, delicioushabit ofsi&okiog, it is indeed an evil, butif a man vPili smdket.and most men will,he" will 'find' the use of the cigarette, oftencondemnedAs the worst orm of smoking,the least harraf ul, if practiced with properprecaution. An eminent Englishman hasshown how thi3 precaution should befakpn. He says that - the cigarettewithout a month-piec- e i3 really neversmoked tiiorc than half way' throughin theeast It is well understood there,as it isby all practiced cigarette smokers,thaj; every inhalation from a cigarette

'slightly deteriorates in. quality from thefirst A small deposit of the very of-

fensive oil of tobacco is left in the finely-cu- tleaf. Very little of this arrives in the

smoker's mouth if he stpps when half isconsumed. Many Oriental smokers con-sume no more than a third. Turkishladies will smoke fifty or upwards in aday in this manner. The whole of the

.noxious matter can be intercepted by us-ing a mouthpiece in which a small plugof cotton-woo- l is placed, and renewedafter half a dozen cigarettes have beensmoked. . .

- An Animal tlospltal.Chicago Time3.

The. trustees of the university of Penn-sylvania have determined to build a largehospital and stable for the treatment ofdiseases of dogs, horses, cows, and otherdomestic animals. A great deal of pre-paration has already been made in thedirection of founding a veterinary faculty,and several professors have been inEurope fitting themselves for this work.fThere are more fancy cattle ownedaround Philadelphia, it is said, than aboutany other city except Boston, and someof the finest die from want of surgicalattention. A special department is to bedevoted to the care of pet and sportingdogs. A well-know- n Philadelphia ladyproposes endowing a department for cats.
