A Useful Invention.

T. r. McGurn, of Virginia City,
has invented machine for split
ting wood. The affair." which
threatens to drive the Chinese out
of the country. is simply big AK
attached to a piston rod. The
wood is placed under this Ak, and,
it being operated by steam power.
it exerts such q force that it will
split the knottiest log with sim
gle stroke and without any appar-
ent resistance. As now operated it
strikes 60 times q minute, but is
capable of making $50. A 7-horse
power engine rurs both the chop
ping machine and the saw. which
together can saw and split 20 cords
of stove wood q day.

His Unequal wrestle with the
Machine. =

| Machine.
Some months ago Dobson seeing
an attractive advertisement of a
maehipe for the artifici l Matching
of chickens determined to invest
$50 in one. He figured that the in
vestmeat would pay him 81. 500 .
year and keep him in Spring
chickens all the While. He got
the machine by express. It was
called the International Incubator
and claimed to hatch 1913 chickens
out of 500 eggs. Dobson's idea of
the thing was that you put the eggs
in the machine, fred it up with q
lamp and in three weeks the back
yard would swarm with chickens.
On receiving the incubator he also
received a printed list of directions.
and discovered that among other
things he would be obliged to turn
the eggs over twice day, change
the oil in the lamp three times and
get up occasionally in the night to
see if the thermometer showed the
proper temperature. Before he
had run the thing three nights the
light of the lamp attracted attention
all over the neighborhood, and
presently the report spread about
that he was making counterfeit
money. About the second week
he discovered that 1856 eggs were
no good and wrote to the manu-
facturers for advice. They sent the
folio wing:
Mr.. John Dobson-You need an
indicator to tell you what eggs are
prolific. Will send you one on re-
ceipt OF SO.
INCUBATOR Co.
He got the indicator and tried an
other batch. About the same
amount went stale. Again he wrote
for advice, receiving the following:
John Dobson, Esq,-You must
have laid the eggs with the small
end down. This destroys the vital
ity of the eggs. See instructions
Article 3, Section 4.
INCUBATOR Co.
Sure enough he had overlooked
the instruction alluded to: But
after all eight chickens came out all
right, and not knowing what to do
with them Dobson gave them to an
old Len for safe keeping. The next
morning they we're all gone, having
been taken in by weasel. Dobson
communicated the result to the In
cubator Company and received the
following:
John Dobson, Esq.-You can
not raise chickens successfully
without our patent weasel trap.
You need about one trap to every
dozen chickens. We sell the traps
at SIS per gross, patent steel springs
and safety back catch. Yours.
INCUBATOR Co..
To which Dobson replied:
Send me one trap just to COM
plete the inventory. Think one
trap will do for what chickens |
intend to raise. Would like to |
take the agency of your machines,
as several parties here are anxious
to try the same experiment that
has ruined me. Yours de-,
JOHN DoBsoS.

STREET TREE TRIMMING.

1t is one of the anomalies of Homo
lulu experience that a city with SO
many trees can boast of so few we'll
shaded streets That strange mania
for cutting, hacking and mutlating
trees, or, in polite language, for "tree
trimming has not yet received scien-
tific name. 1t deserves one quite as
much as kleptomania, which one is apt
to think, after trudging the streets on a
hot day, much more innocent form
OF insanity than the other To the
everlasting woe of the public, the OBJ
ject of the tree mutilating mania seems
to be exclusively those trees which
overhang the street, and are so grateful
to the weary traveller by their cool
masses of shade. The writer has seen
an entire row Of trees bordering the
street, stripped of every branch which
shaded it, with no motive apparently,
except the qualification of a
fiendish malevolence; The two tele-
phone companies are the most promi-
nent sinners in this particular. The
old company is responsible for most o:
the transgression, we may suppose simply
because it has lived longer One had
hoped better things Of the Mutual Tele-
phone Co., especially as II has assumed
the role of a public benefactor a
sort of incorporated Moses o. this
people" " But this fond hope has proved
but pleasing dream. On Alapai
street, between the poles of the new
company, a whole line OF trees has been
mutilated in manner frightful to con
template. In fact the whole side OF
the tree towards the street has been re-
moved, with the artistic design nc
doubt, OF making the avenue look like
the gardens Of Versailles The pedes
trian cannot observe a spectacle like
this without deriving a pleasing salts
faction from the reflection that if cor
porations have no souls, their compon
en,s parts have, and that consequently
however directors and stock holders anc
managers may fail to meet their desert:
here, they are none the less all account
able to higher power,
