The Hawaiians are more akin to tha Papuan than to tha Malay race. They are a family of tbe brown Polynesian race, which inhabits the Tonga, tha Hociety, Friendly and Samoan islands. The New Zealander and the Hawaiian, although 5000 milea apart, can under¬ stand each other, so similar ia tha language. Tho original Hawaiians are olive in oolor, with blaok, wavy, glossy bair, large eye«, full lips and a nose inolined to be flat. They are peaoetnl, gentle. Imitative and yield¬ ing-
The Berlin (Oermany) sewer sys¬ tem transports annually from sixty Billion to seventy million tous of •awagofor diatrihutioo over aa area •f twantj thouaand acres lying from seven to flfteen miles beyond the lim¬ its of tbe city. Although tbe cost of tha drainage is about (26,000,000 a yaar, the enoriuonsly increased fertil¬ ity of tbe land makes it a paying oper¬ ation. Besidea that, it ia the most sanitary and scientifle mode ut dis¬ posing of tha city's sewage.
Tbe regular troops ot tbe United Htates army have done so exactly what waa oonAdently expected of them that their splendid performanoaa before Hantlago excited lees comment thau did tbs equally heroic deeds of the volunteers. We all accepted as a mattar of oonrse tbat the regulars and their Weat Point offlcers would act up to the highest standard fixed by tbs hiatory of their organir.atiuu. But mattera of course should not pass without recognition. All bnt three regiments of the army which accom¬ panied Bhafter are regulars, well Iraiued, perfectly disciplined, hardy, intelligent American soldiers, officered hy men whose Mtperiors are not found in the armies of the world. The work of tba regulars has proved Ihis.
Spain's red and yellow banner has been kissed by the suns and fanned by the breezes of every clime. Each of the races of the earth has paid gold iuto her treasure vaults—tba red man of onr own forest primeval, the Malay of tbe Southern seas, the Mon¬ golian Islanders, tbe natives of Africa —all of these have spent the sweat ot their brows and the blixid of tbeir hearta to the profit and glory of the kingdom of Hpain. By tbe daring of her navigators and tbe foroe of her trms Hpain placed ber flag at the fonr quarters of Ihe earth, musee tbe New York World. The Inst of conquest lay at tbe Hpauiard's feet. Theu came a periiMl in which over-confidence and gnvernmeut proatitntions worked hand iu hand. One by one the col¬ onies proclaimed red eyed revolution. Due by uue the nation lost her neg¬ lected own. It baa taken four cen¬ turies to do this—three of them slow, aBproc^essive centuries— but time has done his work woll.

I THE MAD MARKSMANJ
.'.4 111 S it was the Hat¬ urday before the Wimbleton meet¬ ing, our company held a match at Bisley, at wbich our selected marksmen were pitted agaiust those of the neigli- boriug county bat¬ talion. I was oue of the number, and I remember with pride—for Mary Mayfleld, the handsomest girl in Dumbledon, for whose baud (Jeorge Kampster, a lance corparal, and my¬ self were rival8,were present--that after getting thirty-two at 200 yards and twenty-nine at 500 yards, I finished np at 600 yards with thirty, making my score ninety-one, a good perform¬ ance in those days, and for tba time I was a hero.
Oeorge Kempster was down uext, and I am ashamed to cunfess that it waa not without a triumphant glance aud a smile toward Mary that I saw him fluish with twenty-five aud a tutal of eighty-fonr.
The marker had been hit in the eye by a splashiug bullet and Ueorge aud I were selected to take hia place. I went nnwillingly, I must allow, for Mary was tbere.
Oeorge strode away to tbe butts in such a manner that 1 ofteu had to break into a trot to keep pace with him. Not a word did he speak, and wben I asked him what caused his hurry he looked nt me with such dia- dain, nn I tliongUt, that I auliaidcl nt ouce, uud to tell tlm truth, felt rather aabamsd. The target, u heuvy iron plate, iitood supported by stout girders some fix feet from the liaak of earth iu thu rear. In the miiUlle uf the plate—to lie more precise, the six- inch "bull" itself had been cut uut trom tbe remaiuder of the target, and wheu shouting was in progrusa wus fitted to its place by a heavy bolt thut dropped from above.
The reason for this contrivance 1 once heard waa that when n prize shoot touk Iilace for live piga and poultry, the unfortunate aniinals were placed in the aperture nud were claimed by tbe lunrkBinuu whu killed them.
I had made the plate look spick and span and had guue behiud iu tin. shade to rest after my laburs, when sndileuly a heavy hand wan laid upon my sbouldera and aimthiir uu luy mouth, aud before I could luuve I was thrown heavily to the gruund. I tried to shout, lint Bouii.thiiig wua in luy month, and aa I rrc.ivered fnuu the shock ol the fall I recognized the face of KeiiipHter, though H»,1ly changed, and hot atul criiul.
He had a r.ipe, and was binding my anua to my aide, rolling me over and tu aud fru aa though I were a .I.ir, Then he ran to the mautlot, au.l i tried to rise; but my limlia acoiuiid uumbed, aud before I .-.luld aoruni- ble to my kneea he waa hack and lia.l struck mu to the earth a<ain. When next I looked up he was atauding be¬ side me, and I felt my liiulis s.-.-nrely bound together. lie was mumbling, and I listened.
"Miserable little cur!" he hisae.l. "You thuught you'd rob me of hor, and win her for yonr own, 1 saw yon smile and show y.inr vulgar pride wben I failed at lilHI yards. 1 aaw you make a sign with her and laugh to¬ gether atiuy discomfiture? Miserable houndl IK) you know, coward," he whispered, lesningover me. "tasked her last night to marry me and ahu refused? Perhaps yon know why! Perhaps some one had {Kiiaoneil her mind against tue! Perhaps it was you. Yes, yon sneak, villain, coward!"
As bs said tbis his eyea seemed to start from hia head, aud erery m.iiuout I expected the heavy stick he held iu bis hand to descend uu my upturne<l face. In vsiu 1 attemple.1 to make signs—tu deny bis assertions, aud t<i calm his anger.
"Do you know who shouts next?" he asked.
. I did remember. ItwasCurul. May- iUld.
' -^I seo you do," he c<ihtinurd. "It isMaylield, an.l I aeev.iu thrill at the name because it la her uame. Ha, ha; Fretl will sb.Mit well to .lay, berauae there's a liviug bull, sud as hia Imllet strikes tbe black the people will oUeer, aa.l his aister will amile!"
Heavens! What di.l he mean? Why did he unbolt the ceutre plate',' ".Vud tbe people wouhl cheer au.l ahe wuuld smile!"
I saw bim reiuore the small, black circle from its plo.'.', aud (aaleu a.'ruas the apace a thu-k black t'l.itli, theu I waa jerke.1 to my feet, an<l uiy lia.-k pressed againat tlie atilT ir.m I'lato, while the ma.luian aileiilly an.l awittly laiund me fast by ueck au J feet an-l bcly.

Ping! au.l a diataut report, an.l cut from the mantlet came the lilack and wbite signal. Onlyamngpio! Hurely Fred could not be sh.iutiiig; he lia.l uever got nu low aa thut fur montlia. More waiting, liruut heavens! it vua terrible.
Ping! and unt came the red. Near¬ er thin time—an iuuer; but atill n.it Fred's form. .V low Inugli came frum the mantlet, ns tbe wretch .liviiie.l my own tlioughta. This time fur certain.

When I came t,i myaelf, a crowd uf rod-c.iated auldiera atuuil aliuut mo, ami some uuo wuh Imtliiug my brow. It wiiB Fred.
".\ll right, old chap!" he wUia pered.
I think I siniled, and aa I turned my head I aaw a laiily being ..-arried away on a hurdle. What cunld bt the ineaniiig of it? Wun I killed, ami dill I seo luy uwn fuuorul? And nin siug thus I rolupsed intu uucuuaoiuua uess.
Now I was in u hunae, an.l anme one witb soft, cuul huudn sniuntlied nij forehead. Itwaajllary. Othersweri standing near—my mother, and Fred, and our sergeuut. Then I was uul dead.
"Buck up, old chap," aaid Fred, smiling.
"Take my baud," saiil nnothei sweet voice, aa though to rcassuri me. And I took it.
When at lant I heard tho atory from Fred's owu lips all the horrid dctsili came bock to my mind. T ahiiddored It waa Fred sbootiug; bnl liuw badlj be nhut that day waa remarked b} every one. Ho seemed uervuus an.l bin rifle shook iu bis hauds. Hin first aud second shots were poor, but at his third some shaduw appeared t<i cross his sight, and as he pulled the trigger his left hand dropped ami every one saw tho shot strike the Imuk in front.
To the conRternation of the onlook ers a buII'H-eye waa nignallcd, nnd the captain of the opposing team immedi atcly cbniletigcd the shot. The bugle was sounded, but nu aunwcr waf given and nu mm kor made hia appear¬ ance. Then aunie one ran acrusa the meaduw to aaoertuiu the csnae, ami there at the butts fouud two apparent ly dead men, Oue was dead—poiauucl by hia uwn baud, bnt the other, strapped and bound to the target, haiJ only fainted, and help was soou al hand to coax him back to lifo.
Aud BO (Ieorge Kcmpnter, heariug the dull thud, and oonoluding thut liit grim purpose was accumplished, ha,1 siguallod a "bull" aud immediately poinoued himaelf.

They are a family of tbe brown Polynesian race, which inhabits the Tonga, tha Hociety, Friendly and Samoan islands. The New Zealander and the Hawaiian, although 5000 milea apart, can under¬ stand each other, so similar ia tha language. Tho original Hawaiians are olive in oolor, with blaok, wavy, glossy bair, large eye«, full lips and a nose inolined to be flat. They are peaoetnl, gentle. Imitative and yield¬ ing- The Berlin (Oermany) sewer sys¬ tem transports annually from sixty Billion to seventy million tous of •awagofor diatrihutioo over aa area •f twantj thouaand acres lying from seven to flfteen miles beyond the lim¬ its of tbe city. Although tbe cost of tha drainage is about (26,000,000 a yaar, the enoriuonsly increased fertil¬ ity of tbe land makes it a paying oper¬ ation. Besidea that, it ia the most sanitary and scientifle mode ut dis¬ posing of tha city's sewage. Tbe regular troops ot tbe United Htates army have done so exactly what waa oonAdently expected of them that their splendid performanoaa before Hantlago excited lees comment thau did tbs equally heroic deeds of the volunteers. We all accepted as a mattar of oonrse tbat the regulars and their Weat Point offlcers would act up to the highest standard fixed by tbs hiatory of their organir.atiuu. But mattera of course should not pass without recognition. All bnt three regiments of the army which accom¬ panied Bhafter are regulars, well Iraiued, perfectly disciplined, hardy, intelligent American soldiers, officered hy men whose Mtperiors are not found in the armies of the world. The work of tba regulars has proved Ihis. Spain's red and yellow banner has been kissed by the suns and fanned by the breezes of every clime. Each of the races of the earth has paid gold iuto her treasure vaults—tba red man of onr own forest primeval, the Malay of tbe Southern seas, the Mon¬ golian Islanders, tbe natives of Africa —all of these have spent the sweat ot their brows and the blixid of tbeir hearta to the profit and glory of the kingdom of Hpain. By tbe daring of her navigators and tbe foroe of her trms Hpain placed ber flag at the fonr quarters of Ihe earth, musee tbe New York World. The Inst of conquest lay at tbe Hpauiard's feet. Theu came a periiMl in which over-confidence and gnvernmeut proatitntions worked hand iu hand. One by one the col¬ onies proclaimed red eyed revolution. Due by uue the nation lost her neg¬ lected own. It baa taken four cen¬ turies to do this—three of them slow, aBproc^essive centuries— but time has done his work woll. The famous English statistician, Mr, Mulhall, haa made estimates of the wealth ot Ihe leadiug nations of the world at the end ot the year 18tt5.

I was oue of the number, and I remember with pride—for Mary Mayfleld, the handsomest girl in Dumbledon, for whose baud (Jeorge Kampster, a lance corparal, and my¬ self were rival8,were present--that after getting thirty-two at 200 yards and twenty-nine at 500 yards, I finished np at 600 yards with thirty, making my score ninety-one, a good perform¬ ance in those days, and for tba time I was a hero. Oeorge Kempster was down uext, and I am ashamed to cunfess that it waa not without a triumphant glance aud a smile toward Mary that I saw him fluish with twenty-five aud a tutal of eighty-fonr. The marker had been hit in the eye by a splashiug bullet and Ueorge aud I were selected to take hia place. I went nnwillingly, I must allow, for Mary was tbere. Oeorge strode away to tbe butts in such a manner that 1 ofteu had to break into a trot to keep pace with him. Not a word did he speak, and wben I asked him what caused his hurry he looked nt me with such dia- dain, nn I tliongUt, that I auliaidcl nt ouce, uud to tell tlm truth, felt rather aabamsd. The target, u heuvy iron plate, iitood supported by stout girders some fix feet from the liaak of earth iu thu rear. In the miiUlle uf the plate—to lie more precise, the six- inch "bull" itself had been cut uut trom tbe remaiuder of the target, and wheu shouting was in progrusa wus fitted to its place by a heavy bolt thut dropped from above. The reason for this contrivance 1 once heard waa that when n prize shoot touk Iilace for live piga and poultry, the unfortunate aniinals were placed in the aperture nud were claimed by tbe lunrkBinuu whu killed them. I had made the plate look spick and span and had guue behiud iu tin. shade to rest after my laburs, when sndileuly a heavy hand wan laid upon my sbouldera and aimthiir uu luy mouth, aud before I could luuve I was thrown heavily to the gruund.
