Hammer had a good crop of every
thing this year. The best-paving
proposition he had, however, was
fifty acres of flax, from which he
thrashed 1000 bushels. This, at the
present market price, would bring
him $1,900 or nearly $40 per ere.

"Col. Ben Whitehead, of Wiilis

city this week. The Colonel is a
candidate for national cummiueman
on the Democratic ticket, and will
have strong support from this fic
tion of the state. He is a man with
ability, a keen and clean politician,
a staunch democrat, and. should this
country elect a Democratic presi

one. and Colonel Whitehead is made

The Pardon Board.
Waihalia Mountaineer: While we
have n.i \vi»h to criticise the state
pardon-board, we do believe that
sentiment controls the action of men
to a large extent, and that the courts
and laws aro made the laughing-stock
of the criminal classes. The par
doning of :hirtv or more criminals
at one time also takes on the sem
oiance of a wholesale transaction
that would make any one un
acquainted with the details of the
crises beiieve the board were un
qualified to act. Any set rule to
govern the.r action in granting par
dons would seem impossible, and yet
the fact that so many were freed
looks as tnough there must have
be«n some rule adopted and acted
on. We do not so much censure this
action of the board for the minor
offenses, as there are extenuating
circumstances many times: but, in
the cases of murder, arson and rape,
the sentences are—nine times out of
ten too lenient at first, and
any comnutation of terms seems
a travesty on justice. We do not
ueiieve in capital punishment any
more than we do in murder, but
.vh«n a criminal acknowledges his
act of murder when it has been
proven boy jnd a doubt that the right
nun has been apprehended for mur
ds.:- ami tht judge and jury find him

the p:ird-r,ing board should have no
power oi riducing that sentence un
til it is snown that the convicted
person is it nocent. We have known
••t se.eral cases where murderers
na\o been pardoned after serving
four to twtnty years for their crime
-and the result is that the com
munity suffers because of the par
dun. If pardons are to be granted
wch criminal, why go through the
farce of a trial and the enormous
expense? Why not give them the
four, six or ten year sentence at
fir-t? We believe the court at the
time of the trial is better able
to mete out the punishment than a
jrdon inji board in years afterward.
Peculiarities of Odor.
Xo substance that cannot be dis
solved in water has an odor. It is
the actual substance itself, floating
in particles in the air, that appeals
to the nose, and not simply a vibra
tion of the air, as in the case of
liprlit and sound. The damper a
tiling is the more powerful the
oil or it fives off. A pleasant proof
of t'no fact can be had by walking
in a pardon after rain. There is no
end to the curiosities of smell. It
is. for instance, the vapor of a
liquid that smells and not the liquid
in the mass itself. If eau de cologne
be poured into the nostril the nose
refuses to recognize any odor there
at all.
Long Sormona.
Of one of the sermons preached
by Dr. Samuel Parr in 1800 the lord
mayor for the year is said to have
remarked to the preacher that there
wc-re four things in the sermon
which lie had been very sorry to
hear.
'"Dear, doar, iny lord," exclaimed
the doctor anxiouslv. "what were
tliev?"
'"Sir/* was the reply, "I mean the
quarters struck by the church
clock."—London Chronicle.
A Critio Disappointed.
An orator, having written a
spoeeh which he intended to deliver
on a certain occasion, gave it to a
friend to read and desired his opin
ion of it. The friend, after some
ime, told the author ho had read it
over three times the first it ap
peared very good, the second indif
ferent. the third quite insipid.
"That will do," said the orator,
very coolly, "for I have only to re
peat it once."—Life.
Spoiling Tragedy.
Among theatrical anecdotes a
time honored chestnut is that
which belongs to the tent sceno in
"Richard III." The story is told of
Barry Sullivan, to whom it prob
ably occurred. Anyhow, the narra
tor has thrown in a repartee that is
characteristic enough of the fa
mous Irish tragedian.
"Who's there?" exclaims Richard
at the conclusion of his dreaming.
Catesbv in his cxcitemcnt stam
mered out his answer and-abruptly
stopped in the middle of his phrase,
"i'ls I. my lord, the early village
cock."
Suilivan surveyed the bewildered
aspect of the officer for a few sec
onds with a sardonic grin, as if on
joying the actor's agony, and then
growled in an audible tone, '"Then
why the mischief don't you crow?"

FAMOUS KISSES.
Om
That Caused a War and Cest a
Thousand Lvu.
Women's kisses have played an
important role in the world's his
tory. For instance, in when
Fox was contesting Westminster in
the Whig contest, among his keen
est supporters was the beautiful
Duchess of LVvorsshtre, who en
tered heart and soul into the spirit
of the election, gaining many a
vote. One man. a butcher, re
mained impervioits to her wiles
neither beseeching glances nor per
suasive words could move him. But
the duchess was resolute in gaining
her end. She tie red a kiss for the
man's vote. Such a bribe was irre
sistible.
In KIM the famous Gordon
highlandcrs regiment was raised by
the lovely Duchess of Gordon, who
was indirectly instrumental in gam
ing a thousand recruits by the do
nation of a guinea and a kiss
apiece. In a sense, many of these
kisses may be said to have been
fatal, for in an encounter with the
French shortly afterward more than
250 men were either killed or
wounded.
Alain Chartier, the French poet,
is the hero of a romantic legend.
One day he fell asleep in a public
place. Margaret of Scotland, the
wife of the dauphin, afterward
known in history as Louis XL.
chanced to pass with her attend
ants. She glanced at the uncon
scious man and recognized in him
the poet whose versos she loved so
well. Then, motioning to her maids
to be still, she gently stopped for
ward and. stooping, imprinted a kiss
on the poet's lips.
Then there is the story of Inge
borir Yinding. The poor student
Yaldelbo, whose empty purse was
a sad trammel to his ardor after
knowledge, was promised by two
noblemen a foreign tour if he could
obtain a kiss from the fair Inge
borg. Nothing despairing, the stu
dent one morning approached the
lady as she was seated at a window
and boldly made a confession of his
hard case. Ingeborg hoard in si
lence, then bent down her head and
in loving charity gave him a kiss.
At times, however, a kiss has
been the prelude to a tragic sequel,
as was that bestowed in K1S by
Prince Ferdinand of Bavaria upon
Princess Thyra, the near relative of
a ruler of a neighboring state,
where he was on a visit. Thi af
fectionate greeting, a heedless
whim of the moment, was given un
der the very eyes of the princess"
betrothed, who, naturally taking
umbrage, soundly berated the
thoughtless prince. In the war that
followed, although hostilities lasted
only six weeks, more than a thou
sand lives were sacrificed.—New
York Press.
Tolstoy and Horses.
Once Tolstoy when a boy was
riding the old horse which he and
his brothers owned. The animal
was unwilling or unable to go fast
enough to suit him, and he beat ihe
poor thing as hard as he could.
The servant who was with him said:
"Master have pity. The horse is
twenty years old, as old for a horse
as eighty for a man. If you got on
Timofevitch's back"—that was the
name of the oldest peasant in that
locality—"would yon beat him if he
moved slowly?" Tolstoy dismount
ed, patted he animal and asked his
pardon. "Since then." wrote Tol
stoy, "I have grown up, but 1 al
ways hare pity on horses and al
ways remember Timofevitch when
I see a horse ill treated.*'
Johnny's Triumph.
A teacher in one of our public
schools, after laboriously and ex
haustively explaining to her pupils
the meaning of the word "income,"
told little Johnny to go to the
blackboard, write a sentence con
taining the new word and read if
aloud to the school. And Johnny,
his freckled face fairly radiant with
the pride of his newly acquired
knowledge, marched to the board
and after considerable tongue chew
ing evolved:
"In come a cat!"—Mack's
Monthly.
Foolish Question
The editor of the woman's pauy
was on his vacation and the spoil

breach.
"Well, what do you think of

perfumed communication. "Mere's

Mob After Waterloo.
Marshal Guillaume Marie Anne
Brune, one of the most prominent
leaders of the great army of
France, became a soldier in conse
quence of the sneer of a pretty act
ress. During the early days of the
republic he had written a brochure
on military operations, and one day,
while dining with a party of Dan
ton's guests, the publication was
casually mentioned. One of the
guests, an actress, addressed Brune
mockingly in these words:
"You will bo a great general,
since you fight with a pen."
Stung to the quick, he applied for
a commission and entered the army
as a major. The witty actress, hav
ing wagged her pert tongue at
Robespierre, was sent to the guillo
tine.
In the army Brune showed that
will power can conquer natural
nervousness. In his earlier battles
he suffered tortures from the sight
of blood and the noise of the guns.
Every discharge of a fieldpieee
gave him such a shock in the pit of
