library has another story of its
origin:
Jan Pielersem, of Amsterdam, was
a good churchman, hut nevertheless
he was afraid of being hewilchod. On
the last night of- 1G54 ho sat in his
baheshop trying to keep out tho evil
spirits by priming himself with a glass
of good spirits. Sales had boon
brisk. There were no customers in
the shop for tho moment, and he sat
back, meditating on the gains he
would make- on the morrow, when
the fresh New Year's, cakes were put
on sal. He wa startled by a sud
den rap. An, ujdy. woman pushed the
door open. ',
"Grt mer a -down New Year's
cookies," fihe cried in a shrill yoiee.
The"shrillneB8 of her voice did not
mean anything to , his slow Dutch
mind. It, only annoyed, him.

f CONGRATULATIONS
General Wood, having slaughtered
600 Moras, including women and chil
dren, has been congratulated by the
president. It is safe to say that he
will not receive., the felicitations of
congress or of the people. Corralling
600 Moros. in a crater and hauling
cannon to tho rim with which to mas
sacre them, is as bad as anything of
which we charged the Spaniards when
we went to war for humanity and
benevolent assimilation. Honolulu
