‘The Story of the Nose Pui ing as Told by Randolph's Daughter. In reference to the interview republished in Tnx Stan of March 25 with the venerable James Carrigan of Baltimore giving an ac. count of the puiling of Gen. Jackson's nove by Lieut. Randolph, Miss E. B. Randolph, dangh ter of the late Lieut. Randolph, writes to Tax Stax that Mr. Carrigan’s statement of the c: re cumstances leading up to the nose pulling a erroneous. She says: Lieut.

Randolph served with dis tinguighed gallantry. He was on the Consti- tution with Hull, when the latter redeemed the Pasillanimity of his namesake from Detroit in capturing the British frigate Guerriere. and was ith Decatur on the Cnited States when the Macedonian struck her colors American tars. He was also with Decatur on the President in the autumn of 1814 when that ill-fated ship of war feil afoul of four Eritish men-of-war ind was captured off the Bermu- Lieut.

During her cruise the purser, John B. Timberiake (the first husband of Mar- garet O'Neal. who subsequently married John Hi. Eaton, Jackson's Secretary of War, and afterwards the young Italien dancing master, Bouchignani, and who died in this city a few Years ago), committed suicide and Capt. ‘atterson ‘assigned Randolph to take charge of the money and all other ablie property on the ship until ir return to port. After paying off the ship in Boston, states the record of Brockett, he ‘Went to Washington and rendered his accoun and on October 27, i828, received offic from Fourth Auditor Watkins that hi was closed, the second comptroller, Richard Cutts, on January 9, 1829, admitting ‘the same and certifying the closing of the account. A few months subsequent to the death of Timber- Jake his widow was married to Gen. John H. Eaton, and a year or two after the return of the Constitution it was ascertained at the treas- | Bry that Timberiake was a detaniter. Gen. | Eston (Jackson's Seeretary of War) was Purser ‘Timberlake's bondsman, and by resting the de- faication on Kandolph would be relieved of his vship. The report being circulated that Randolph was the delinquent Kandolph immediately de- tmanded an investigation by a court of inquiry. ‘This was denied him by Secretary Branch of the navy, but nearly three years after Secretary Woodbury ordered a court of inquiry to look into the affair, and its report. while exoner- ating Kandoiph from all blame for official acts, found a balance due of $2,303.

It is a pamphlet of thirty-four pages, including six carefully prepared maps and charts, and relates to the | Hawaiian Islands, a subject of general interest just at present. The pamphlet was prepared from the best available sources of information by Capt. George B. Scriven, signal corps, and | Lieut. J. Y. M. Biunt, fifth cavalry, under the | direction of Maj. J. B. Babcock, assistant ad- jutant general. THE PHYSICAL FEATURES. It comprises generally a report on the physi- | cal features of Hawaii, its ports of landing, | supplies, climate, diseases, &c.,and will prove | of great value in the event of military opera- | tions on the islands. The pamphlet is _princi- pally devoted to the geographical situation and characteristics of Hawai, including the dis- tances, routes, winds, dc., from the Pacific coast." Carefully prepared data as to the physi- cai features of the islands, such as area, soil and products, are presented. The population, religion and education of the ives are also treated. A good deal of space is devoted to the laws, military forces, languages, currency, finance, commerce, industries and other mat- ters of importance to the people of the United States at this time. Reference to the manners, customs, clothing and individual character= istics of the Hawaiian people is not omitted. REVENUES OF THE ISLANDS. } Hawaii for 1892 were £4,408, penditures were 24,095,891. rived from customs were $1.20: taxes, $9 5. The largest item of expendi- ture was f inter 641,848. T Hawaiian debt at the last statement was €3,217,- | 162, interest upon which var om 5 to 12 per cent. Sugar and rice are the staple industries, coffee, hides, bananas and wool being also ex- ported. The imports are muinly groceries, pro- visions, clothing. grain, timber. machinery, | hardware and cotton goods: 91 per cent of the | trade is with the United States. The native food of the isiands consists largely of taro plant. | Sweet potatoes grow even among the rocks and | flourish abundantly in good soil. Wheat and | corn are raised. ‘The quality of coffee raised | equals the choicest. Hawaii is the land of tropical fruits, which grow in great abundance. In 1891 the islands exported 274,983,530 pounds | of sugar, 4.900.450 pounds of rice and 116,600 | pounds of bananas. The pamphlet states that the native language | of Hawaii is largely made up of vowela, giving to the spoken tongue a pleasant, liquid sound somewhat difficult to acquive. ‘The conso- nants all have the English sound, the vowels that of the German vowels, except “i,” which is the same as the German “ie.” There are no silent letters in the Hawaiian language. English | is very generally spoken throughout the Kroup. ‘The business of the islands is almost entirely carried on by foreigners, principally Amezi cans, English, Germans and Chinamen.

A bench warrant was issued for Randolph's arrest in Alexandria—then a portion of the Dis- trict of Columbia—and served upon him, but being out uf the bailiwicic he declined to recog- nize the same.

At this | point a young doctor, who had studied with Chareot in Paris, asked if he might be permit- | ted to hypnotize her, insisting that he | could do so successfully. The physicians | had no sach confidence, but as it was impossi- ble to give the girl an anesthetic they were willing he should try. The matter was ex- plained to the parents of the young girl and to | the patient herself and both consented.

One of the French papers has published an article on what clothes Parisiennes should According to the pamphlet the revenues of | bring with them to the big Chicago exposition. The French mind holds a deep prejudice against the tailor-made dress and all its appurte- nances, But of late years continental women have made a pastime of trevel, and the Pai dressmakers have been forced to the acknowl- edgment that their fanciful creations were be- coming less and less in demand, The English tailor habit bodices were ordered by their own | costumers, and so they have themselves been obliged to'adopt this absointely simple form of dress, though they have insisted upon theit own modifications. French woman is advised to fill before sailing for American shores contains the following: A vachting suit (with which we can dispense), one light smooth ‘traveling dress with a tight bodice. The color should be unobtrusive m order that the skirt may be worn with several blouse and shirt waists, thus making of one suit three or four very serviceable gowns, With the made waist this costume will consti- tute avery respectable second best. There should be three shirt waists, one of gingham, one of cheviot and one of u bright summer silk | or gros grain. A light dress, suitable for church or concerts, would practically complete the out- lay for this novel trip. Of course there should be an extra skirt of close wool or whipcord. The Columbian clothes should have pockets, and pockets need not be tabooed by dress makers in these days of voluminous skirts. A pretty model for the traveling gown is of delicate leaf brown, trimmed with black sou- tache braid. ‘The skirt is full and lined from hem to waist with light-weight crinoline and faced around the bottom with brown silk. ‘There is a narrow simulated underskirt, shown, beneath a narrow opening on the left side, the two edges of which are held together by three stitched straps. The bodice is round and short and the belt fastens at the top of the simulated skirt, The pointed yoke is drawn smoothly into a bigh collar, which is trimmed with braid. ‘The revers, widest not on the shoulder, but shghtly below the bust line, are also trimmed with the same. Upon the shoulders is @ little knot of braid. The sleeves are plain leg-o'- mutton, and the hat isa stiff turban, HEAVENS IN APRIL. THE A Total Eclipse of the Sun to Oceur During the Month, From the New York Times. There are several quiteimportant and inter- esting ph enomena to distinguich the month of April and make it of more than nrual conse- jauence. The event of greatest moment and most attractive to the scientist is the total eclipse of the sun onthe 15th and 16th of the month. While we are not permitted to see the eclipse in this latitude it occurs under circumstances which make its observation peculiarly promising to science. This year the eclipse occurs ata time when the solar fires are in extraordinary blast and the phot osphere is convuised by enormous cyclone- like spots. It will be visible in regions com- paratively near and accessible ata time when astronomers are better prepared than ever be- fore to im prove the opportunity. ‘The eclipse this year will be viable in the comparatively cloudiess regions of both the African desert and of South America—a very important comtideration and one not likely to be so well fulfilled in any other eclipse for the next helf century. Along the path of total eclipse there are several admirable stations | available for observntion, while vessels travers- ing the Atlantic trade-wind zone will be in fine positions for observing the phenomenon. Perhaps there could be no more conclusive proof of there being a man in the moon than the fact that the phenomenon known as the “full” occurs twice in April. For a short month to contain five phases is somewhat re- markable. ‘The first of the month brought us a full moon, and the last will duplicate it, but the latter being somewhat further south will prob- ably seem warmer and nearer tous. The 9th has the phase of last quarter, and April's new moon does not come until the i6tn. There is conjunction between moon and Planet eight times during April, the first being with Uranus the morning of the third and the last with the same plauet just as the month is about to close. On the 14th comes Mercury's turn, then Venus, two days later, which is the closest for the month: Jupiter comes the follow- ing day, and on the 19th Neptune and the growing crescent are at their closest, Mars re- ceives a visit on the 19th and Saturn on the 2ith about midnight. This last will make the best spectacular showing, for, while the moon is somewhat too bright, it will be interesting to | | See the two bodies #o’ close together, besides which the majority of the other conjunctions are hidden from our view. What makes Uranus particularly .deservin; of our interest this month is the fact of his be- ing in opposition with the sun on the 28th, after which he will be one of the galaxy of evening stars. Its greatest diameter for the year also occurs at this time, when it subtends an angle of 3.#2 seconds, but wien at its fur- therest away this angle is only 3.42 seconds. It must be borne in mind, however, that small though these angles be, = very considerable number of miles of distance are involve: From the fact of its having a measurable di its diameter in miles is only a maiter of calcu- jation, and the astronomers have decided that 31,700 mile is xbout the proper figure. We shall hardiy have a glimpse of either Venus or Jupiter during April. The two are engulfed in the long rays of gold that shoot endows beauty from the sun and effectually pale even the brilliant coloring of these lustrous gems of the sky. They have a little meeting of their own on the 28th, the di foliowing that on which Jupiter is in conjunc- tion with the sun. Their two disks almost touch and were we only able to penetrate the dazzling sunlight « picture as rare and as be tiful as that exhibited when last they came together on the eastward side of the sun would reward us. Mercury is now among the morning stars and is hastening toward his most distant western position from the sun, which he reaches on the 28th. Neptune, the furthest away of all the planets, bas but very little to distinguish bim this month. He is an evening star, is still in the constellation of Taurus, and is approaching the sun While Jupiter, the brilliant, has faded away and has passed the less conspisuous Mars on his way to the sun, the laiter continues to shine with his usual ’steadiness, coming into view as the high coloring of these beautiful sunsets of | early spring melt into more sober grays, then to take upon themselves the somber hues of at. ‘ver since Saturn's opposition on the 29th of March be bas been an evening star, and has already begun to prove an attractive feature in the eventhg sky, as he is to be found shi there soon after sunset, and is in the best tion for observation that he will be for the year.

AND 179 MASSACHUSETTS’ AVENUE NORTH- Dr. Albert Day of Boston opened the meeting with afew brief remarks, the nature of which was to show how easily the mind of a person was influenced by material things and to dem- onstrate to what extent this mind influence went in the cure of diseases. He told several amnsing incidents of wonderful cures which had been effected by a pair of copper pincers, the only merit of which lay in the doctor's power to make hts patients believe they would cured. Dr. Day thought that many of the so-called alcoholism cures of today were of the nature of the copper pincers. Dr. T. D. Crothers of Hartford followed Dr. Day with » paper strong in its condemnation of the specific remedies. Inebriety, he said, was a species of insanity. which could no more be cured by a patent medicine than insanity itself. Moralists, he continued, said that the only cure for inebriety was in prayer, and in this staie- ment he admitted there was much truth. He reviewed the waves of temperance demonstra- tions which had swept over the country at Various times since 1540, when half # million people signed the pledge.’ He touched on the present epidemic of gospel cure now raging in and best. ber 2 ot sale sold PM.

DA Connecticut and spoke of the thousands of peo- ple who kad put on the blue ribbon and signed the pledge." A cure of this sort he did rot con- demn; it was the ““goid cures” and patent rem- edies ‘that he denounced. These “cures,” he said, depended simply on ignorance for their success, and, as for there being any specific remedies for the cure of inebriety, that could be answered with a decided “‘no. “We have met here tonight,” Dr. Crothers continued, “to go on record with that ‘no’ and to show that we are not in favor of these various ‘cures.’ Our silence on this subject has led many of the ‘cure’ projectors to believ that we were in favor of these remedies. We are not. The only possible good these reme- dies have is in bringing public attention to this question through public agitation.” Dr. E. C. Mann spoke about alcoholism as the cause of one-fourth of all the cases of insanity. He thought the question should be treated of by # national board of health. His July. | Dist wi TRUSTEE’: TOWN. D.
