THE HAWAIIAN FLAG.
Americans are impulsive ; they think
hastily. When the news reached The
Dalles yesterday that "Old .Glory" had
been taken down at Honolulu there was
a general feeling of disappointment and
chagrin, and this may be taken as the
sentiment of the whole country. How
ever, with the past before us, bearing in
mind the brilliant successes of former
statesmen in all telling events, there
need be no cause for alarm. There is
nothing disgraceful in the fact that di
plomacy ordered down the flag; that is
the only way it could come down. If it
was shot down by enemies, who were
later successful in planting their own in
lieu thereof, then we might indeed be
wail the event. But'when the Hawaiian
flag goes up, with which nation we are
especially friendly, and after all is said,
has really the right to hoist her own
flag whenever and wherever she sees
fit Jon her own domain ; when Commis
sioner Blount sits in his easy chair on
the portico of his hotel in amueed and
mysterious silence; and when no thun
der peals are heard from Washington in
disapproval ; then we may be sure that
the event is simply in line with a pre
viously agreed course of conduct.
It may be that at this time the Amer
ican flag is flying all over Hawaii, sig
nifying much more than the first right
to friendship, and now heralding posses
txon. This or many other things might hap
pen within the seven or eight days it
takes to get news from the "hotel of the
Pacific." Britain may view Jthe fact of
the coming down of the flag as a chance
to treat with Hawaii for annexation to
her own empire, since Hawaii is in a
direct line from British America to Aus
tralia and would make for her a valua
ble hostelry ; but before she could move,
annexation to America may have al
ready been accomplished.
If this has happened, it is fitting that
in the last few hours. of existence of an
old nation, their own ancient flag, evea
if it is "hybrid," should have no rival
in its own soil. It should be borne in
mind that America is not coercing Ha
waii by force of arms, and the Stars
and Stripes have no right on Hawaii
unless bv a declaration of war.
A REAL KING IN AMERICA.
He Is Half-Breed Comanche Indian and
His Rule la Absolute.
"There is a real king out in the south
western part of Indian territory," said
a citizen of St. Louis to a Washington
Star reporter recently, "and in a recent
trip down through the Comanche and
Kiowa countries I met Quanna Parker,
head chief of the Comanches. The
Comanches are still 'blanket Indians,'
that is, they are not civilized and edu
cated like the Choctaws and they live
in tepees. But they are among the
sharpest and brightest of Indians.
Every boy remembers in dime novels
that Comanches were the favorite
enemies of the brave trappers and
hardy pioneers. They were fighters
and are the most expert horsemen in
the world. But they fight no longer,
are rapidly becoming civilized, and for
their progress and docility Quanna
Parker is to be thanked.
"Parker is a half-breed, the son of a
chief whose wife was a white captive
girl. When but a youth Parker, by his
daring and bravery and successful ex
ploits against other tribes and the
whites in the Indian wars, rose above
the older chiefs and became the leader.
Now that the wars are forever over his
same great will power and strong per
sonality impress themselves as strongly
upon his tribe, but in the direction of
advancement and civilization. He is
virtually a king. His word is
law; his will supreme. He says
he will civilize his tribe, and
he will do it. As one result of bis ef
forts many of his Indians live in frame
houses. He compelled them to save
one-half of their money received from
the sale of their cattle. With sixty In
dians' wagons he went down into
Tpas. hniiirht lumber, then came on
to Washington and persuaded Indian
Commissioner Morgan to build the
houses. He lives in a fine nine-roomed
frame house, handsomely furnished in
modern style, Brussels carpets, fine up
holstered furniture, mural adornmeuts,
and decorated nicely. His office, with
its desk and fittinsrs. occupies one
room, and it is here he transacts his
business. He wears a white shirt and
trousers with leffgings, braided hair,
anrl colors his face when amonff his
people, but when traveling dresses ex
pensivelv in fashionably made clothes
and snorts a bier diamond pin. He has
horses without number, . two coaches,
four bup-iries and other vehicles. He
has six wives to brighten his household
and I never heard of any hair pulling.
There is a method in his polygamous
madness. Each wife is the daughter of
a chief of the six principal divisions or
sauads of the tribe. So he is solid with
the whole lot on this score.
"Parker is about forty, tall and
muscular, with a light copper-colored
skin, the Indian facial characteristics,
with a niercine black earfe eye. He
speaks English well, and is a general
favorite with all who know him."
Persons who are subject to attacks of
bilious colic can almost invariably tell,
by their feelings, when to expect an at
tack. If Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy is taken as soon
theBe symptoms appear, they can
ward off the disease. Such persons
should always keep the Remedy at hand,
ready for immediate nse when needed.
Two or three doses of it at the right
time will eave them much Buffering.

Two Americans who were dining at
tables in front of a cafe in Pans, near
the Seine, noticed high up on the front
wall of a building a red mark, and
underneath it this inscription: "In
undation of 1875. High-water mark."
Come! come!" said one of the Ameri
cans to tne restaurant Keeper; you
don't expect us to believe that the
river ever rose as high a that?" "Oh,
no," said the proprietor, blandly; "it
only came up to here." He made a
sort of scratch with his thumb nail
down near the ground. "But, you see,
when the mark was down there the
children rubbed it out so continually
that we had to put it up there out of
their reach." .
PUZZLED MONKEYS.
The Daily Columbian is the title of the
morning newspaper to be issued on the
world's fair grounds. It is the only of
ficial bulletin of the Columbian exposi
tion. It will be an eight-page composite
paper, unlike anything ever seen before,
five pages consisting of the first page of
the Tribune, Timee. Inter Ocean, Her
ald, and News-Record, all of Chicago;
the other three pages containing official
orders, programmes, prices of transpor
tation, list of officers, and matter of in
terest to exhibitors and visitors furnished
by the Department of Publicity and Pro
motion, under the supervision of Maj
Handy, who will virtually be the editor
W. C. Gates, lately of the Review of
Reviews, New York, will be the manager
The first number of the Daily Columbian
will appear on May 1st. The printing
of the paper will be done in Machinery
Hall on one of the most modern and in
teresting of printing machines. The
price of the new paper will be five cents
for a single copy, or, by mail, $1 a
month, with postage added when sent to
a foreign country.
In the libel suit brought against an
Astoria newspaper Judge McBride
charged the jury that "whenever a
newspaper finds a case of flagrant
wrong-doing or evil, it is its duty, as
well as its ' privilege, to expose it, and
give that expose the widest circulation
This is a duty every honest newspaper
owes the public. It is right that the
public prints should apprise their read
era of fraud and malicious schemers.
A typewriter trust has been formed
It is perhaps needless to say that it was
organized to control the machines and
not the dear girls who operate them
Trusts are powerful, but not even trusts
can accomplish impossibilities.

A Caterpillar Invades Their guarteru
with Tragic Results.
One of the cages in the menagerie
was inhabited by an ateles, or prehen
sile-tailed monkey from Central Amer
ia. and a doc-faced monkey from
western Africa. Each held the other
in supreme contempt. The African
mused silently over his own strength
and looked scornfully at the spider
like arms of his cousin in captivity
while the American didn't think much
nf n. monbev who had such a short
stumov tail as his companion.
One day a caterpillar, a long brown
hairv one, crept into the cage. Where
it Viari oome from no one knew, but
there it was treading its quiet way
across the cage. The ateles spied it.
and stopping in his gymnastic cxer
cises dropped to the ground to investi
irate the newcomer. For a short time
he looked quizzically and- wonderingly
at the woolly object, which went qui
etly along. Then the right hand was
thrust out timidly, and as the nngers
touched the caterpillar it curled up
into a hairy ball. The monkey jumped
back, blinked his eyes as if to be cer
tain of what was what, gibbered and
then with the aid of his tail drew him
self up to one of the horizontal bars
and looked down wonderingly. ne
dog-faced monkey looked on from
above with apparent scornful uncon
cern. The little act was rehearsed
again and again, whenever the cater
pillar uncoiled itself and started for
some untold goal. At ' last a happy
thought struck the ateles. There was
a small stick in the cage, and grasping
this with both hands the valiant mon
key, with many a grewsome look upon
his face, started in to "do up" the un
canny intruder. He jabbed down at
the unoffending visitor several times
with a sadly inaccurate aim, hopping
back after each attempt and making
such comical faces that the unlookers
were fairly convulsed with laughter.
The dog-faced monkey alone was
still, silent and circumspect. At last.
after many attempts, the stick came
down flat on the caterpillar, crushing
out its life. The ateles bent forward
to seize the defunct crawler, and was
just about to make a meal of its poor
victim when there dropped from the
upper perch, on the spider-legged
simian, the dog-faced monkey, who
quickly demolished the remains of the
caterpillar, while the ateles gave vent
to his disappointment in plaintive cries,
ugly grimaces and acrobatic perform
ances which "brought down the house,"
the spectators of this small tragedy.
