No American Sympathy. I
From the Philadelphia North American. ]
Prime Minister Salisbury in his :
speech at the Lord Mayor's banquet on (
Thursday night, speaking of the South
African situation and the attitude ot 1
foroign nations toward England, said: ,
For several years our relations with
and cordial feelings toward our kins- 1
men on the other side of the Atlantic
have been constantly growing, and |
though we neither interfere in the af- |
fairs of their continent nor they inter
fere in the affairs of ours, we feel wo
can now always look for sympathy ami
a fair hearing among those who share j
with us so vast a mission for the ad- ,
vancement of mankind. I
That is an echo of the English press. 1
which after the tidings of each British
defeat at the hands of the Boers has I
shed a few gentle tears of gratitude for
.the sympathy the disaster evoked from
America. From what part of tip* '
United States these comforting expres
sions come has not been disclosed.
Lord Salisbury and our esteemed con
temporaries of England deceive them
selves or seek to deceive the English
people. While it is quite true that a
now feeling of friendliness for (Heat
Britian has been developed here because
of her attitude during our trouble with
Spain, there should be no mistake about
the view taken by the American people
of the South African business. They
sympathize hoartly with the Boers—so
heartily, indeed, that their victories
have awakened more interest and given
more pleasure by far than news of
Filipino defeats and slaughters does.
Were Americans not to side with the
Boors they would be false to the prin
ciples and traditions which are at the
heart of our national life. Americans
bolieve that men have a right to govern
themselves, and always they have been
warmly sympathetic with any people
engaged iu lighting for independence.
It is monarchy against republic in
South Africa: it is the strong against
the weak, and Americans are with the
weak and against monarchy in such a
strugglo.
Lord Salisbury may talk as largely as
he likos about the "vast mission for the
advancement of mankind," in which he
is good enough to say we are going
shares with England, but phrases are
not so convincing as facts. And the
cold fact is that England is on a robber
raid in Africa—on a raid to destroy a
people's liberty in order that she may at
leisure plunder them of their gold and
diamond mines in the interest of the
European Jay Goulds and Collis Ilunt
ingtons, who have made so many mil
lions out of the country that they are
inflamed by their greed to demand it all.
No doubt in the long run civilization
will be a gainer by the overthrow of the
alowgoing Boers and their absorption or
elimination. But the manner in which
England is discharging this particular
part of her "vast mission for the ad
vancement of mankind," is as innocent
of moral color as any freebooting ex
position that was ever undertaken by
the buccaneers of the Spanish main.
She is a missionary in the same sense
as is the trader who, by carrying ruin to
savages, kills them off and makes room
for white men. It is not the improve
ment of the population by substitution
that the trader is thinking of, but the
profits on his rum.
Canting of noble purposes in order to
coyer sordid ones is not an exclusively
British practice, but the English are
adepts at it. Lord Salisbury's high
language about a vast mission for tin;
advancement of mankind does not de
lude anybody on this side of the At
lantic. There is war in the Transvaal
because England has resolved to steal
the country. Americans are grateful
to Great Britain for her recent good
will, but to ask in return that we shall
applaud her brigandage in South Africa
is to demand a price that Americans
will not pay.
Forty inmates of the Ohio state prison
have struck for shorter hours. Their
demands have not been complied with,
neither have they been informed that
their services are no longer required.
~ HAWAII ANNEXED.
Its Remarkable Advance In Activity
aud Prosperity.
It Is almost incredible to see what a
substantial and rapid progress lias been
mude throughout Hawaii since annexa
tion to this country. Before annexa
tion there was complete prostration of
every kind. Now all Is changed.
Much of the old poetic, picturesque i
life remains. The stalwart "Hawaii I
aness" goes her stately way clad In the I
flaming lioloka which so becomes her,
wreathed and crowned with leis; the
street laborer and the train driver pur
sue their vocations also decorated with
flowers. The sound of the paro patch
liddle still sounds through the groves
of shadowy algaroba, and the strains
of "Hawaii Ponoi" yet delight the
heart. But with the old there is a new
and virile Hawaii, the natural and in
evitable successor of that which has
served its time. Honolulu itself lias
changed astonishingly. Fine business
blocks have already supplanted the old
buildings and the others are In process
| of construction; the stores are crowded
with the latest fashions in millinery
and dry goods; in the line, well-appoint
ed book stores "David Haruin," "The
Rough Riders" and "Prisoners of
Hope" are placed conspicuously on
sale, while the windows are tilled with
wonderful photographs Illustrating the
recent overflow of Manila Loa. In one
street gangs of men are laying the
track for a new rapid transit line to b*
operated by electricity; in others the
new sewer is being constructed which,
when completed, will make Honolulu
one of the most sanitary cities in the
world.
Real estate that was a drug oil the
market a year ago can hardly bo
bought now at any price. In the whole
city and its environs there are hardly
i dozen lots advertised for sale. Hun
dreds of houses have been built, many
of them spacious and costly vdlas thai
tire perched upon the lower slopes of
the mountains, but still within t; e cor
porate limits of Honolulu. With these
more ambitious dwellings are hundreds
of cottages, not one of which is iacanr,
while those not yet completed have
been bespoken for months. A new
suburb. Pacific Heights, on the lower
slope of Round Top, commanding a
magnificent view of the city, the har
bor and the ocean beyond, has been
surveyed and plotted, and the streets
are being rapidly opened, it wiP not be
three years until this will be completely
built up. with electric car lines, an
abundant supply of water, and nil the
modern improvements of any metro
politan suburb. The electric light plant
for tin* city itself has been greatly en
larged. so that even the large grounds
and driveways, as well as the resi
deuces themselves, are brilliantlv light
ed.
Of course, the leading industry of the
islands, sugar planting, has tad an
enormous stimulus, and people ct mod
erate means have grown rich witliiu
the past year buying and sidling
<tocks. New plantations are being
opened up, with capitalizations running
up into the millions. On those where
irrigation is used the most costly aud
perfect machinery is employed—pumps
that force u stream of water to the in
credible height of six hundred foot—
a tiling hitherto believed to be impossi
ble. This lias redeemed the highlands
which have been supposed to tie un
claiin&ble, and has added to the ara
ble lands throughout the islam'*.
The yield has been almost doubled
in the irrigated lands where cane cul
ture is carried on in the most scientific
manner.
Indeed, the sugar industry Is hardly
past its infancy, and the future of
these great Hawaiian plantations can
hardly be forecast. It has rather cast
coffee growing in the shade, w.ich is
rather a pity, since no coffee in the
world, not even that which passes for
Mocha, can be compared in strength
pr flavor to the Kona coffee, indigenous
to the islands. This, however, will im
prove, and no doubt, when thr same
energy and knowledge are brought to
boar, coffee plantations will rival the
catie fields. One difficulty has been
that at least three years must elapse
before capital invested in coffee yields
any returns.
Furthermore, while the appropria
tions made by the Hawaiian legisla
tures two years ago will carry on the
Government until January, 1900, should
Congress have made no provision as to
finances after that date the country
will be placed in a very difficult posi
Hon, for the United States will then
be the legal custodian of publl•• moneys
and nothing can be paid without its
sanction. Aud Congress should bear in
mind when the cause of Hawaii comes
up for consideration, that this is not
a new possession acquired by the force
of arms, but that it is territory that
voluntarily sought annexation to the
United States: that It voluntarily br
ume a part of the Union, and that it
cannot be ranked in the same category
with the Philippines, Culm or Porto
Rieo. It cattse should have precedence
aver all the others, and there should be
no delay in completing annexation,
which exists, at present, only in the
nniyc. and makes itself felt, chiefly
through Its custom house officials.
At present, there is no place for un
skilled labor or for men without cap!
tal. There have been pitiable cases
and many >f them, of men without
means or trade who have come out to
the islands to become ?i public -hnrgi ;
who have spent their small savings and
who have had to bo sent back, desti
tute and disheartened. Men who have
sufficient capital and some c? ll'ug in
wait one or two years, will do well, no
doubt, when they finally find tlieii
place; but there is little or no chance
for any others. It requires no great
power of prophecy to forecast The fu
ture of this favored land. Within
twenty years It will be a paradise,
crowded with happy homes, every foot
of its fertile soil under cultivation, and
here at the convergence of stennisiii'j
routes from Australia, the Ortert, the.
Xicaraguaii Canal and the Pacific
coast, will rise a city fair to look upon
and great in its extent and ir its
wealth. All the influences that prom
ise such results have now been set in
motion, and the industries from widen
its wealth is already and will continue
to be derived are staple necessary com
nodities. that supply a demand iu the
lorts, not only of our own country, but
.f all Christendom.

For holding conductor's checks on
car scats a new device is composed of a
small magnet secured to the side of the
car or on the seat, while each check
ljas i small strip of metal at one end
which is attracted by the magnet.
Dust and cinders are prevented
from blowing into the car windows by
the use of ?i new guard, which is de
signed i< >"• placed between the sill
and the raised sash, and extend out
from the side of the car far enough to
shield the opening.

To add to the eomfort of bicycling at
spring attachment lias been patented, 1
which is inserted in tlie rear fork, with j
a centre rod in each fork engaging the

Broken rudders on ships at sea can
he replaced by a Canadian's temporary
steering device, which comprises a set
of brackets shaped to tit portions of the
hull, wtili guy ropes for holding them
in position, the rudder frame being
carried by the brackets.
Parcels can be attached to bicycles ;
without the necessity of tying by the
use of :i Pennsylvaniun's device, a
bracket being clamped to the frame ;
under the saddle to carry a pair of 1
curved spring forks, which press
against the rear fork to grip the pack- ;
age.
A resident of New Zealand lias in- (
vented a thimble which lias a section at
the tip recessed to contain a small
hook with a sharp blade set in the bot
tom of the recess to sever a thread
when picked up by the hook, making
a handy device for a seamstress.
Vegetables can be rapidly sliced or j
mashed by a newly designed cutter, i
having a hopper restiug over a set of
knives carried by a base, with a lever
mounted on one side of the base to de- j
press a plunger in the hopper and force
the vegetables between the cutters.
A combination couch and chair has !
been designed, having the seat portion
double, aud the upper section hinged
to the lower to turn outward and be
supported by the arms, while the
hinged back is lowered into a horizon- |
tal position and rests ou two folding i
legs.
Loaves of bread can be kept fresh for !
some time by a Boston man's patent |
package, which is made of waxed pa- j
per or other air and waterproof ma- .
terial, the bread being placed in the |
package and sealed up while the loaf j
is at a temperature of about 90 degrees. |
A new tethering device allows ani
mals to feed over a large area without i
incumbering them with a long rope to
entangle their feet, a long rod being
fastened at one end to a stake, with
supporting wheels on the rod, which
allows it to he drawn around by the
animal.
An interchnngable billiard-cue tip has ;
been pa touted, which is formed of JL
button with au eyelet in the rear, the i

An Unpleasant Reminder.
James didn't go to church often, but
his mamma took him there last Sun
day, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Now she wishes she hadn't.
He sat demurely enough until the
tenor, who indulges in a dreadful inex
cusable tremolo, had finished a song.
Then he spoke up.
"Mamma," he asked, in a thrill whis
per, "what makes the man's voice
shake so?"
"Hush, dear," said mamma. "I don't
know."
"But, mamma," the little scamp per
sisted in a stili louder whisper, "you
know when papa's voice shook the
other night you said it was beer."
And that's why Jamie's church priv
ileges have been shut off.
Not the Right Way.
"Here's a story of a New Haven
Italian," he said, "who has bought
seven wives at 30 cents each, and now
makes them do all his farm work."
"Outrageous!" she exclaimed. 'The
idea of buying wives for 50 cents
each!"
"It does seem wrong," he admitted.
"What he ought to do is to get them
for nothing, and then put in the rest
of his life trying to make enough
money to keep them the way more
civilized men do." —Chicago Post.

NO SENTIMENT.
But The Tailor Gave a Pointer As to
Pockets.
"Married or unmaried?" asked the
measurer in a tailoring establishment
of a customer.
"Unmarried," replied the young
man, with a blush.
"Inside pocket on the left side,
then," observed the tailor, as if talk
ing to himself, while in the memoran
dum book on the counter he made a
note to that effect
After the young man had departed
I could not refrain from the query:
"What difference does his being
single make in his inside vest pock
ets?"
"Ah, my dear sir," observed the
knight of the thread and needle, with
a bland smile, "all the difference in
the world. Being unmarried, he, of
course, wants the pocket on the left
side, so as to bring his sweetheart's
picture over his heart."
"But doesn't a married man want
his wife's picture in the same place,"
inquired the scribe.
"Well, there may have been an in
stance of that kind," replied the tailor,
in a doubtfully hesitant tone of voice,
"but I must confess that such a one
never came under my observation." —

Another Tragic Episode.
"Miss Giggins," said the young man
with the obtrusive hatband, "were you

"Mr. Scadson!" she exclaimed, as
she blushed a rosy red and sighed.
