In truth, there Is no ountry life in
America, in the English sense of the
word. There are plenty of wealthy peo-
pie with little or nothing TO occupy their
time. But they have not taken to the
soil, and that pleasant autumn round of
hospitality which the American lady so
admlres in England is practically I'M
known IN the states. Hospitality Of the
most lavish description is practiced by
our kindly kinsfolk. But it is exercised

thing like a stated migration to a coun-

to return until April or May, is almost
unknown.
The reason of this is mainly hat the
americans have not yet been capt. waited
by country life. They lavish fortunes
on their town houses, and build yachts
which are marvels of luxury. But the
idea of laying out an estate and living
on 1t does not attract them. They buy
real estate'-to keep and sell at a profit,
not to en- Joy it. The institutions of the
states are against this. As the entire es-
tate of a father must be equally divided
among his heirs, the accumulation of
land is surrounded by difficulties, and
the country is advancing so rapidly that
the chances are in favor of the owner
being tempted to sell his park for a city
site or to run a railway through his gar
den. Nor must it be forgotten that the
English landowner, with his inherited
rank and responsibilities. has bonds
binding him to the soil which are un-
known to the wealthiest American. The
latter has no farms to look after, no ten
ants to arrange with, no position in the
county to keep up.-London News.

1t is a fact well known IL manufacture
ing circles that the vast bulk~2f the
heat contained ia coal is wasted. Only
fourteen out Of the hundred parts of
carbon is actually utilized. Hence. one
OF the problems Of chemistry has boon
to get more powr- SS ne way of heat
and Ign, out OF a given quality of coal.
Professor T. 5. c. Lowe claims to have
solved this problem, a matter which is
of vast Importance if it is a fact. The
process is to pulverize the coal, and,
in converting it into a gas, Ia Goa is
reduced to a powdered form so fine
that it will float in the atmosphere,
and ii is carried into the burning fur
mace by a current of air artificially pro-
duced. In the powdered form every
thing is consumed, as it makes no smoke
and leaves no ashes. This would utilize
the mountains of so-called waste, now
piled up near coal mines and manu-
factories.
But Professor loves invention goes
farther. The coal is converted into a
water gas. A ton of anthracite coal will
generate from eighty to a hundred
cubic feet of gas. The cost will be
about . cents a cubic foot. This inven-
ton is already in use i'll the city of
Troy, in the laundries of that place, and
is also used for power and for heating
and cooking in hotels and restaurants.
The gas furnished is n~on-luminous and
resembles that from alcohol. 1t has no
odor and is intensely hot. These facts
have come out in 4 report to the Scran-
ton board Of trade, which calls the new
invention anthracite gas. The result
will be a marvellous economy in the
heating Of houses and the cooking o:
food, while one ton of coal will go rs

MORE POLICE PROTECTION NEEDED.

Considering the mixed nature of
its population and the limited
amount Of police restraint, Homo
lulu is remarkably well behaved
town. With a population composed
of so many nationalities, and with
so large q proportion of the class to
which it is usual to look for cri-
minal character, and yet so few
police and so little police protection
outside of the city proper, it is
really surprising that there Is so
small 4 percentage of crime. But
what guarantee have we that the
present order and security will
continue indefinitely? Or what
good reason have we for believing
that the future will be no worse
than the past: None whatever.
Indeed. there is danger of the dull
times which have commenced. but
have by no means reached their
limit, bringing in their trail petty
crimes, the existence of which
begets feeling OF general uneasi-
ness and insecurity. To guard
against a contingency of this kind,
which is not at all improbable, the
police force needs strengthening.
What protection have the outskirts
of the town at the present time! n
very little indeed. The people are
simply left to protect themselves.
1t is unjust to blame the heads of
the department for not furnishing
what they have not the means to
furnish. But the Legislature is
| justly censurable if it fails to pro
vide the necessary means, while
freely voting the hard-earned none,
of the people for gewgaws and GIN
cracks.

q swindle, but this is to be true
test Of speed.
The young men, and few old
men also, are blind to the warnings
OF their wiser brethren who put little
faith in anything in the shape of
race at Kapiolani Park. 1t is not
our intention to intimate that there
never was fair race on the race
track. Far be it from us to
create any suck impression. But,
we unhesitatingly say, that there
has been, during the past five
or six years, an unmitigated lot of
swindling, in trotting races particu-
larlv. Professional drivers from the
Coast are invariably at the bottom
of these swindles. They give the
secret away to one or two about
town. 1t is considered policy on
their part to do so. Having accom-
plished their object, and finding
that the scope of game is limited,
they quit. Another member of the
same family or ring comes down
three months afterwards. and re-
opens the game with similar results.
And so the practice will 90 on as
long as professional drivers from the
Coast are allowed to take part in our
sports at Kapiolani Park.

the RIGHTS OF COMMITTEES.

We publish, in this issue, Hon.
Mr.. Dickey's reply TO a brief article
which appeared in yesterdays issue
Of this paper, and we do so most
cheerfully, our columns being
always open to any side of every
question, whether the views eX-
pressed be in accordance with our
own or not. We commend the
course adopted by Mr.. Dickey in
coming straight to the paper from
which he disseuted, instead of fol-
lowing the too common practice
here of running to some other
paper. We make special mention
of this, because it is II point on
which the public apparently need
information. Let it be clearly
understood that we keep an open
column for the expression of out
side opinion, and precedence is
always given to correspondents who
feel themselves aggrieved by any
thing we may have said.
Now to return to the subject
matter of Mr.. Dickey's communica-
ton, we fully agree with him that
1.-The books of the Government are
open to the inspection of the Legis-
lature," and that the Finance Com
mittee represents the Legislative
body. But our point is this, that
the mere appointment of the COM
mittee does not give it the right to
inspect, much less any individual
member thereof. \ committee
should visit the departments of gov
ernment . armed with the proper
documentary authority of the
House, and without this authority
the chief of q department is not
supposed to know the committee.
At least, this is how such matters
are regulated in other countries,
and it seems to us the proper
method. If Mr.. Diclley, a member
of the Finance Committee, is acting
for the committee, and in tina
capacity desires access to tn
Custom House, he should be pro
vided with the proper credentials
and on production thereof tn
customs authorities are bound
admit him. Mr.. Dickey can clail
the proper documentary authority
as right, from the President
the Assembly, according to Britls
usage. If this be refused, or il
being given, it be ignored at til
Custom House, or any other depar
ment where there are public AZ
counts to examine, Mr.. Dickey h;
an undoubted right to consider hin
self and the Assembly wrOnged al
insulted; and in either case he W
find the BULLETIN prepared to stal
by him to the last. We simp
want to see public affairs conduct
on regular and orderly principles.

TROTTINC SWINDLES.

In yesterdays issue there APP
peared a short letter from Mr.. p.
A. Brouse, the driver of Redwood in
the race of Saturday last, offering
any man in the kingdom to take his
choice of the two animals, Clemen-
tina or Redwood, and he, Mr.. b.,
will take the remaining animal, and
trot for $3.50 side. This is bold
challenge and Mr.. Brouse must have
considerable confidence in himself
as driver to make such an offer.
Such an offer certainly does not
tend to increase the public interest
in trotting matches at Kapiolani
Park. II detracts from trpe sport,
to think that it is not the trotting
qualifications of the horse upon which
a speculatOr bets his money, but
upon the unknown person who
drives. Men, who are professional
drivers, come down from California,
and have things all their own way.
They land with nothing, and go
away with a pile.' Win or lose, they
make money. A race is announced
