WE learn that it is the intention of the
Post Office authorities to suspend Il
powerful Gil lamp in the verandah of
that building so arranged as to
burn all night. 1t seems strange
that the Post Office should have to do
this when the streets ought to be well
enough lighted without, bst then the
Legislature thought we had enough
lamps in Honolulu already perhaps.

The item which we published yester-
day morning showing the falling off in
the natural source of the water supply
of this town is certainly one calculated
to caursc the gravcst alarm. Slowly
but surely the water in the natural
underground reservoir from which our
artcsian wells draw their supplies is
diminishing, and the amount has
decreased SO much as not only to dry
up some springs and lessen the supply
of all the others, but to lower the
height at which artesian wells will flow
by about one foot. The matter demands
the serious and instant attention of the
Government to devise means for adding
to our water supply and checking the
waste from uncapp9d artesian wells, for
| If something is not done we shall shortly
have water famine in our midst.

Governor Sulliyans Mother.
Correspondence Washington Star

An anecdote which heard the other
day of the famous Sullivan family
of New England may not be, uninter-
esting here:
When that sturdy Irish women, to
whom the Sullivan family may well
look back with pride, was crossing
the Atlantic on her way to the new
country, and was asked why do
you come to America (" she answered.
To raise Governors for them, little
dreaming that she would live to see
one of her sons Governor of New
Hampshire and another Governor of
Massachusetts, though ! am sorry to
say the third did not so much honor
to his family, and was known as
Devil jim The story goes that
soon after John Sullivan rose to be
Governor of New Hampshire, he desir-
ed to give grand dinner to a number
of distinguished guests. A member
of his family at the time was his
mother, and fearing she would not be
equal to the occasion, he concluded it
would be best to arrange for her non
appearance at the dinner-ta table.
Approaching the matter as gently
as possible. he soon succeeded in max
ing the quick-witted old lady under
stand the drift of his diplomatic talk,
and in convincing himself that he
had miscalculated the pride Of the
mother of the Sullivans
Raising in all the majesty of her
Irish wrath. "John Sullivan, ex-
claimed the old lady, Il hoed pota-
toes in the field with the Governor Of
Massachusetts, by my side, the Gov
ernor of New Hampshire at
my breast and the devil
Juggling aC my skirts, but never
vet have / allowed one of my sons to
be ashamed of me Order the chaise
and send me home.
"Reminiscences were of ne avail,
and home went John Sullivan's
mother in all the majesty of her
righteous Indignation.

KNOCKED OUT BY WOMEN.
Armed ios the Teeth They Break Up a
Prize Fight.

A desperate prize-fght was fought
this side of Nanticoke, ON the flats
near the river, to-day The principals
were Paddy O'Brien, saloon-keeper,
and Mike Breeze, miner. Both men
entered the ring according to the
Marquis of Queensberry rules, and We're
stripped to the waist. They shook
hands and went to business.
O'Brien held his left well up, de
termined to protect his physiognomy
at all hazards, though Breeze quick
ly planted his right on the left cheek,
almost sending him to grass. The
latter's blood was now up, and he let
drive a sledge-hammer blow that
landed ON Breeze's lower jaw, and
rocked him to and fro.
Breeze came up smiling and band
led awhile, when he got in bow
that would have done credit to pile
driver. O'Brien landed on his back
with his feet paving the air This
was first blood for the miner and the
crowd cheered.
The fourth round was savage one,
and Breeze's proboscis commenced to
swell. O'Brien's courage was up and
his friends pointed to him as a second
Sullivan, but the miner was not
daunted, for he danced about manag-
ing his bunch of fives in fine style.
The tenth round had the merit of
being nip and tuck. Blows We're
given in rapid succession until the
loon-keeper went over with Breeze
ON top.
The eleventh bout was under way
when a crowd of women broke into
the ring brandishing knives, clubs
and pistols. They shouted and
shrieked at the tops of their voices as
they separated the combatants, and
dispersed the spectators. The fight
was then declared draw. The men
were very evenly matched, and both
displayed considerable science and
great deal of pluck An old grudge
was the cause of the mill No arrests
were made. Considerable money
changed hands. -(WnKELBARRE,

Tools Used on the Pyramids.

During a residences of two winters
in tomb at Gizeh NJ. w NJ. Film
ders Petrie collected evidence show
ing that the tools used in working
stone 4, 900 years ago We're constructed
with a jewel at the cutting edge He
stated reasons for coming 10 this con
cluslon in a paper read before the
Anthropological Institute, a resume
of which is published in recent issue
of Engineering of London. Solid and
tubular drills, straight and circular
disk saws, and lathe tools were made
with jewel set in metal. The lines of
cutting ON a granite core made by a
tubular drill from a continuous spiral,
the grooves being Of uniform depth
and width throughout, showingsthat
the cutting point was not worn as the
work advanced. The regular taper
of the core would indicate that Jewels
were also set upon the outside and
inside of the drill, thereby facilitating
its removal. In some specimens of
granite the drills sank one-tenth of an
inch in each revolution, and the pres
sure necessary TO do this must have
been from one TO two tons. The
skill of the worllmen and the capacity
of the tools, are illustrated by the
clean path through both soft and hard
material-no difference in the groove
being perceptible, although ii passes
from a substance into quartz, subject
ing the tool to an enormous strain
In plane surface the depth and width
of The cuts indicate the successive
stroke of saw, and the use Of the
circular saw is proved by the regular
ly curved lines. The forms of the
tools were the same that experience
has sanctioned at the present time
The scarcity of the diamonds and the
lack of strength in the sapphire and
beryl lead TO the consideration OF
corundum Nothing has been found
about the metal of which the tool was
made or the method of setting the
level

THE SLAYER or CAREY.

O'Donneli to be Tried In London.
LONDON, Aug. 16. The government
today decided to refuse TO allow the
authorities at Port Elizabeth; South
Africa, TO try O'Donnell for the muir
der of James Carey. The justices at
Port Elizabeth, during ODonnell's
preliminary examination went care
fully into the question Of jurisdiction,
and concluded that the assassination
had occurred within the legal limits
Of the district Accordingly on
the 4th instant, after hearing
all the testimony relating TO the
crime the court committed O'Don-
nell for trial at the Port Elizabeth
October assizes on the charge of hay
ing wlllfull y murdered James Carey.
The commitment had no sooner been
made than defense subscriptions were
started among the Ferian societies all
over the world. These defence move
ments were carried on with such os-
tentation in England and Ireland as
10 attract the serious attention of the
government. 1t was soon learned
that there was absolutely no chance
of securing either fair trial or con
viction IN Port Elizabeth, and the
crown lawyers were requested
to look into the question OF
the governments right TO change the
venue. Yesterday they advised that
the trial could be had in London 1t
is not known what grounds were fur
nished by the crown lawyers for this
position as the question of colonial
jurisdiction was decided at the time
Of the commitment in favor Of the
South African authorities, and they
will, its believed, contest the home
governments present position A
majority Of the cabinet stoutly OPP
posed the trial Of O'Donnell in Lon
don, upon the ground that such pro-
ceeding would virtually make Of
the case a state trial, surround the
prisoner with fictitious and evil inn
