The American union party of Hawaii scored a signal success at the election held October 29th for, senators and rep resentatives of the legislature.

No sensible man should get angry eimplv because a newspaper publisher dung him for money. A dun is not an impeachment of the subscriber's integ rity, but is Bimply an outcropping of the ' publisher's necessities For instance, a thousand men owe one man from two to ten dollars each. He has to dun them in order to pay his expenses. Instead of get ting angry and stopping the paper because tne puDlisnerasKea ior wnai is none6uy due, the subscriber should thank the . publisher for waitingon him so patiently and pay up like a man.

A verdict was ren dered for the plaiutiff on tbe pleading, under instructions ot tbe court. j ; The Florence West has a weird story of the inquest beld at night on the ocean beach over the remains of Captain Willitj. "It was," it says, "an impres sive scene. The pale noon cast its rays over the little knot of men gathered around the body of tbe dead man; and the voice of the judge, as be adminis tered the solemn oath to the' jurymen, was the only sound that broke the still ness save the moaning of tbe breakers on the beach." ... . .. . ... , . , The secretary of the treasury has been Informed that the present - currency of British Honduras was demonetized Oct. 25, 1884. .

Over 3000 Indians were employed in the Yakima bop fields during the past season, and most of them wanted whis key bail enough to pay any price for it. Adventurers and desperados saw their opportunity and secured liquor for these triwashes, for which the red men were compelled to nearly mortgage their souls. This made some of the Indians mad, and they informed upon the contraband sa loon men to the government officers. There were as a consequence wholesale arrests, trials and convictions. A party of Pullman unemployed and other families, numbering iu all 600 per sona, will arrive in Alabama this week, and will start a single-tax colony after the idea of Henry George, near Blakcly, in Baldwin county.

The following is what the Pendleton East Oregonian says of railroad prospects: - - It is probable that the Canadian will get into Portland over tbe O. K & N., and rail road men are speculating over the form of arrangement between the two roads. Tne Great Northern is to banl from Minot, N. D., to Spokane and the O. R. & N. the re mainder of the way. The Canadian "Soo" is to be a part of the line and the Sao from St. Paul and Minneapolis ba a direct Hue through to the Atlantic seaboard. This same "Soo" is one of the scrappers for busi ness. In connection with the Canadian Pacific, it beinz a part of that syat-m, the "Soo" is constantly npseiting plans formed by other roads, a id railroad men generally turn tbe picture cf the "Sao" toward the wall. ; For years the "Soo" differential has been a disturbing factor in transcontinental trxffio, bat the "Soo" ba- alwaya been suc cessful in ex tort irg it. Even now there is an alliance between other systems to bieak the "Soo'" hold, bat it is unlike y that the move will " bo successful. The subsidized Cansdian government road, tbe Canadian Pacific, has bean able to hold its position' despite all protests both general aud par ticular. This entry into the coast region of the Soo" is to be bailtd with de'ight. It is one of the beuetits of tbe O. R. & N.'a divorcement from tbe Uuiou Pacific system, for such an arrangement would have ben impossible one yetr ago. With thirteen general offices m Portland, there mast be numerous advantage accrue to coast ship pers. The O R & N. ba more than any other corporation made possible such a rep reseufatico. However, a Burlington con nection ia valuable, and that is to be credited to tbe Northern Pacific at present. Want a New County. There will be an effort made daring tbe next session of tbe Oregon legislature to have a new couuty carved out of the east ern part of Crook, the north, end of Grant, a portion of Gilliam and the southern corner of Wasco counties, with the town of Mit chell as 'the county seat. "This proposition was before the last session bat failed. "The people 'embraced io tbe territory named should , have their county," says ao ex change. "They - are now - isolated, as it were, from' the" rest of the world, being from titty to seventy miles away from fa cilities for doing county business in either ot th counties in which they live, and dar ing the winter months are prevented from going to tbe county seat by an impassable barrier of snow. Give them a county, we say." " " There is no more need of this new county than there is for a ijftb wheel to a coach. Some ton desires county seat honors, aod immediately there ia a petition for a new political division to be formed. There is not nongh property in the new county to pav pio.er salaries for officers, or to erect poblio buildings and tbe division would eke out a miserable existence for many years. No uew county is needed of tbe district nsmed, and nntil the residents can show sufficient wealth to sappoit tbe new organization the legislature should not grant the petition.

"It will be observed that wheat is 12 cents per bushel higher in Sao Francisoo than in Portland; 10 fact, No. 1 shipping is quoted at 57 there and only 44 1 4 in Portland. : It is claimed and perhaps correctly, that wheat can be shipped from Sao Francisco for 6 cents per bushel les? thao from Portland, bat even if that is true, wheat should bring 50 cent in Portland now. It would aeem tbat when wheat is below the price of production, oar shippers shoald at least give all it n werth, if for no other reason, for decency's sake. It has alwaya been consiiered dishonorable ti rob the weak and helpless, bat it seems oar Port land shippers sre ao exception.

Mable Howard, a variety actress at Wallace, Idaho, is a she devil. A dis patch from there, of the 12th, eays : "Mable Howard, a variety actress well known here, and in the sound cities, butchered Jack Burk, a mining man, Friday night with a razor. She was a quick-tempered woman, who did not falter in the barroom fight She had the reputation of being tough and glorified in it. At the theater at Wallace she "roped" Burk in the boxes and when the last round of drinks were ordered he re fused to pay for them, saying that he bad no more money. Mable was drunk, took a razor from' her stocking and slashed the man ferociously about the neck. Be fore the physicians arrived Burk waB about dead from loss of blood, and will probably die."

They Cost tbe English Metropolis Ten Mil lions a Tear For Their Servioos. it costs close upon $10,000,000 a year to police London. There axe in the metropolitan police force 15,040 men of all ranks, and their pay, cloth ing and equipment alone cost the taxpayers of the big city 1,343,959 a year. Then there is the pay of the commissioners, doctors, clerical staff and workmen generally, the mainte nance of stations and offices and the thousand and one miscellaneous items of cost in the operation of the de partment, which brings the total cost of the machinery for guarding the peace or the British metropolis a few pounds short of 2,000,000 a year. mere are 12,585 ordinary police men on the force. They are called "constables," there being only one grade below that of sergeant. The pay of a constable varies between 24 shillings a week, the pay of a new re cruit, and 88 12s. lid. a year, the maximum pay of an ordinary con stable. There were last year 1,099 men on the London police force re ceiving 24 shillings a week, which is scarce $6 American money, althouarh the mere comparison of money value is, of course, no criterion of the ade quacy of the pay for the police. Clothing is supplied to the constables free, or if, from any reason of special duty, the constable does not draw his supply of clothes from the govern ment stores he receives 5 a year in place of the clothing. The matter of allowance is an im portant one in the remuneration re ceived by every member of the force. Constables, for instance, receive an allowance of coal money when they are not living in the stations. Mar ried men get fourpence a week and single men threepence halfpenny, a week. Married men living in sta tions receive 40 pounds of coal week the year round, single men 40 pounds a week in winter and 20 pounds in summer. This item of coal allowance amountedto 14,050 last year. The London policeman has by no means so good a job as far as remu neration is concerned as has the New York policeman, making all allow ance for the difference in compara tive values there and here. Nor has he nearly so fine a place in com parison with the lot of the average Londoner as the New York police man has compared with that of the average New Yorker. Indeed tie London policeman is poorly paid. even as pay goes in England. New York Sun. The Old Liberty Bell. The old liberty bell now rests in a handsome new case in the east room of Independence hall, Philadelphia. The case is made of selected quar tered white oak, is 6 feet 10 inches square and 10 feet high. On each cf the four sides is a large plate glass over 4 feet wide and 7 feet high in the center. At each corner is bronzed pillar surmounted by neat carved work, while over each of the glass sides is an arch with the names of the 13 original states carved, that of Pennsylvania being on the key stone. Facing the doorway, leading down from the top, is a carved model of "Old Abe, the famous war eagle, the wings measuring 54 inches from tip to tip. Beneath, on the top part of the case, is the inscription copied from the bell, "Proclaim liberty through out all the world to all the inhabitants thereof." On each corner of the top is a polished bronze torch. The bell is suspended within the case from the marred old yoke on which it hung when it made its historic peaL The yoke itself was made from a tree just back of the halL This is supported by columns of bronze, and its col umns rest on a truck, which fits snugly inside the case, and appears to be simply a floor. Beneath are four rubber tired wheels, which will per mit a quick removal in case of fire. The new case complete cost $1,500. Philadelphia Letter. THE "PLUMPER" UP TQ. DATE. ft Is a Cheeky Bluff, bnt It Raises Out Un attractive Facial Contours. "No woman," said a dentist the other day, "need have sunken cheeks nowadays, and any one of the sex is foolish if she continues to maintain a facial defect that can readily be rem edied." 'What's the remedy!" asked a cu rious man who heard the remark. "Why, the plumper, of course," was the laconic reply. 'And what is the plumper?" "It is a dental device that throws the sunken cheek outward, giving it an attractive plumpness. Plumpers were made years ago, before the im provements of modern dentistry, but the modern plumper doesn't at all resemble the old fashioned article. -"These old fashioned plumpers were plates to which were attached concave disks. The plate fitted into the roof of the mouth tso that the disk ised against the inside of the cheek and threw it outward, impart ing the appearance of plumpness. "This old disk has been entirely done away with nowadays, and in its stead is a plate with an artificial gum which throws the cheek out. The sinking of the cheeks is usually due to the recession of the natural gum, caused by the loss of teeth, but sometimes, the cheek is naturally sunken, even when the teeth are in tact. - The insertion of a plumper in to the mouth will instantly remove this facial defect. 'Most dentists make plumpers to order for patients, but they can be bought for a trifling sum at any man ufactory of dental materials. They are generally made of rubber, al though celluloid, and in some in stances gold, is the material used in the manufacture. 'The method of manufacture is simple. An impression of the roof of the mouth and the gums is taken in wax. A mold is made from the im pression and the mold used in mak ing the plumper plate. Where the natural gum is sunken the plate is simply filled out, so that whan it is inserted in the mouth it will throw the cheek outward. The plate is held in place by suction. As a rule, plump ers are made with artificial teeth also, although if the patient desires the plate alone is made. 'Where tne jaw nas been DroKen or is misshapen, as the result of an accident, . the plumper proves very effective in removing the facial de fect. "The value of the device is that it cannot be detected upon a minute ex amination of the interior of the mouth. It does not interfere at all with articulation or the mastication of food. Plumpers are used by some actresses, who are aware of their value as a beautifier of the mouth and cheeks. "New York Sun. Jk. Wise Girl. He Why do you force me to wait for an answer?
