The door being efectually opened
by the present Legislature, rush OF
pension bills may be anticipated at
subsequent sessions. Admitting that
length of public service makes valid
claim for pensions, there should at
least be some system in bestowing
them. Probably the precedent estab-
lished ensures all the older civil serv-
ants now in harness an early retire
ment on pensions. But for the younger
portion of the service, superannua-
tion law ought TO be passed, under
which a slight percentage of salaries
should go to pension fund. Mr..
Dole's bill may not have been com.
prehensive enough, but it was move
in the right direction. 1t was, at all
events, far preferable to the promiscu-
Gus methed adopted by the house.
Every improper influence now has

pensions at all, it must appear TO every
candid mind that the giving of nearly

1t appears that the repairs to Kukui
Place are unfinished, SO that criticism
is premature. Moreover, the work is
being done by Mr.. George Lucas
at his own expense, and is one of the
many evidences he has given of public
spirit. We therefore move to amend
the complaint, making it a compliment
instead, but would enter demurrer
against the application of the familiar
proverb about judging unfinished
work.

A VALUABLE EXPERIMENT.

Mr.. Herbert Purvis gives, in The
Planters M0afhIy, an account of ar
extensive experiment he is making in
cinchona cultivation at Kukuihaele
Hawaii. He took skilled gardener
with him from England to Ceylon in
1883. The gardener he placed on a
cinchona estate, to give him knowl-
edge of the cultivation; while he visited
the chief cinchona districts of the
island. What he saw and learned con.
vinced him that cinchona would thrive
in large districts of these Islands.
Therefore he brought home with him a
quarter ounce of seed, for which he paid
at the rate of $Ioo an ounce. 1t was
of an exceptionally good variety, yield
ing in Ceylon from II to IA per cent
of crystallized sulphate of quinine, on
analysis, whereas Mr. Purvis believes
the richest bark elsewhere known
yielded less than a per cent He re-
turned to Hawaii in October, 1888,
and at once began operations to start
cinchona groves. Having selected a
suitable situation in the forest above
Kukuihaele, at an altitude of 1000
feet, a small clearing was made in
September, 1884, and the first batch of
trees was planted out. They are now
so well advanced that he was able to
take bark from all the different kinds
for analysis a short time ago, and
hoped to hear of favorable result
very shortly. In 1884 Mr.. Purvis OBJ
tanned seed from reputable variety

Andes, South America. He gives an
account of progress made SO far, in the
following paragraphs -
After great deal of delay, caused
by scarcity Of labor, we got an area OF

clearing before mentioned-on a gen

have now expended over $500,
including cost of visit to Ceylon, but
exclusive of all interest whatever, on
the establishment of cinchona cultiva-
ton in Hawaii, and have every reason
to believe that it is success Should
it prove to be such, it would throw
open vast extent of land in the Ha-
makua, Hilo, and Kona districts or
Hawaii, and also on Maui, which are
above the line of sugar cultivation, and
at present lying useless.
The man who makes valuable tree:

a Frightful Accident on the Louisville &

BIRMfNGHAM, ALA, Jan. l0.--A fearful
accident occurred yesterday on the Louis
vile & Nashville railway ut the bridge
over Flint river, near Wilhite station,
Morgan county. Two sections of the
north-bound freight train tclescoped. A
part of section broke loose and remained
on the bridge and was run into by the Sec
ond section. The shock caused the col
lapse of the bridge, one hundred feet OF
which was undergoing repairs. Five cars
of the first section and the whole OF the
second section, consisting of the
engine and seventeen cars, went down
with the bridge. The wreck caught fire
and eighteen cars were burned. John
Johnston, fireman Of the second section,
fell under his engine and was drowned.
Henry Botoler, brakeman, was caught
under car and burned 10 death. En-
gineer w. ID. Johnston, brother OF the
dead fireman, was fatally burned. Con-
ductor George Young and negro brake
man named Thomas McCreary were
seriously burned. The freight consisted
mostly OF pig iron, which will be saved.

SUICIDE Is CONFESSION,

Rev. Henry ID. Jardinc Creates the Last
sensation of His Life by Taking
Chloroform.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Jan. l0.-Quite sem
sation was produced when late tonight
the coroner announced that Rev. II. ID.
Jardine, who some weeks ago was con-
victed before an ecclesiastical committee
at Kansas City, had committed suicide.
1t appears that Jardine, since his arrival
here some days ago to consult with an at
torney regarding his case, has been
lodging in the vestry-room OF
Trinity church, of which Father Belts
is rector. Last evening Jardine and At
torney Harrison and Father Belts had u
prolonged conference in the vestry room,
during which Harrison very decidedly eX-
pressed the opinion That Bishop Robert
son would not grant Jardine a hearing
of his case. This had some effect upon
Jardlne and he manifested considerable
feeling, repeatedly declaring his !nno-
cence of the charges for which
had been tried and the Justice
OF his demand for a new
trial, but when Father Belts and Mr.. Har-
rison left about O'Clock this morning it
was not thought that Jardlne was serious
" disturbed. When Father Belts arrived
ut the church carly this morning he OBJ
served Mr. JardinA still in bed,
but did not disturb him and
went on with his early services.
Later the sexton OF thr church went
to the yestry-room to wake Mr. Jardine
and found him in deep sleep and breath
ing heavily. He Immediately called
Deacon Dyer, assistant to Father Belts,
who on entering the room detected chic
reform and at once sent for physician,
On the arrival OF the doctor they
discovered that Nh Jardine had
taken chloroform and Immediately
adopted vigorous measures TO restore
him, hut after three hours continuous
effort they were obliged TO announce that
the reverend gentleman was dead. The
coroner was notified, and, after hearing
all obtalnable testimony, verdict of
suicide by choroiofm was rendered The
body was prepared for burial, and now
lies In the yoStrv-rOom. IL will be taken 10
Kansas City for interment. The fact of
the suicide was known TO but few during
the day and received no public announce
ment until the coroner reported the case
late tonight. The case islikcly to create
q great sensation in church circles, as
Mr. Jardine is said to have been very
popular in bis denomination.
