The Human Heart an Electrical Battery

The most important of the addresses Of the
hospitals, says The Pail Mall Budget, was Dr.
Walters, at st. Mary's, on his discovery of
electrical currents caused by the pulsation of
the human heart. The researches which DR..
Waller described have occupied him during
the last four years, and the record was inter
esting, he thought, as an actual example Of
what goes on in physiological Laboratories,
and correction Of that most unfortunate and
mischievous error that they sire chambers Of
horrors But more interesting still are the
results Of the researches themselves; for if in
each human heart there be indeed an cleo
trical battery, then developments in the art
Of electricity may in time become possible,
beside which Mr.. Edison's wonderland VIII
seem commonplace.

SCIENCE AND PROGRESS.
SUBJECTS OF INTEREST TO PRO-

Investigations and Experiments In Regard
to the Phenomena of the Surface Ten
sion Of Liquids, at Present Receiving
Much Attention from Physicists.
It is now believed that at the surface Of
every liquid there is thin film OF the same
substance, which is in state of constant ten
sion. like an elastic membrane. 4 rubber
toy balloon disteuded with water roughly
illustrates the conditions present in drop Of
that liquid.
From certain Investigations made by Pla-
teau and Quincke, it is estimated that the
thickness Of this film is not more than
l-500, 600 Of an inch The tension Of the film
varies with different liquids; for water it is
about two and three-quarters grains for
every inch Of length, for alcohol a little less
than one grain and for ether only about
three-auarters of a grain The experiments
here illustrated by engravings from La
Nature show how the existence Of surface
tension may be easily proven

THE question of tuition fees in Govern
ment English schools has been a vexed
one for several years past. And it has
been becoming more and more SO all the
time. Difficulties in connection with
the collection Of fees have been multi
plying. Every instance Of a school
agents yielding to the demand OF any
considerable number of people for ex-
emption has served as an incentive to
others to press similar demands and to
now passed the bill which will make all
the ordinary English schools of the
Kingdom free. This makes it necessary
to readjust the appropriations for schools.
The Board of Education asked for $22,
900 for building and repairs of school
houses. It will be necessary to make
this item $45 900, if we take the estimate
of the Education Committee to be cor
rect, Instead of $115, 900, the sum asked
by the Board for the Support of English
and Hawaiian Common Schools, $146,-
900 must be inserted This is large
increase OF expenditure and ought to
represent a great increase in the effici-
ency of our school system. The direct
loss of tuition fees now collected is but
a small part of the extra appropriations
required. The great expense will I'M
doubtedly result from the increased
patronage of Government English
schools.
The Committee on Education estimate
that a thousand children will be trans
ferred from the Hawaiian schools and
from private schools to the Government
English schools. It is safe to say that,
upon the whole, these children will be
better cared for than they were under |
the. old system. And it is estimated, |
further, that the Government English !
schools will make gain of thousand |
in attendance from the ranks of those |
not now in any schools. This is at once |
the source of the demand for increased |
revenue and the strongest argu-
ment in favor of free schools. One |
thousand children growing up in so
small a community as this without
are menace to the future of |
the nation. The liberal expenditure of
money for education in a free state is a
measure of self-protection.

Mr.. KINNEY has introduced bill into
the Legislature to. facilitate the segrega-
ton of lepers The bill has just come
from the hands of the printing commit
tee. The following is the full text of the
bill.
Section l. Whoever shall knowingly de-
tain or harbor upon premises subject to his
control; or shall in any manner conceal or
seCrete, or assist in cOncealing or secreting
any person afflicted with or who is sus-
pected of having leprosy, with the intent
that such person be not discovered by or
delivered TO the Board of Health or it's
Agents; or who shall support or assist in
supporting any such person living in con-
cealment, shall be deemed guilty of mis-
demeanOr, and shall, on conviction thereof
before any Police or District Justice be
liable to fine of not less than ten nor
more than two hundred dollars.
Section 2 1t shall be the duty of every
police officer or deputy sheriff knowing Of
any person within the district where he re-
sides afflicted with or who is suspected OF
having leprOsy to report the same forth
with to the Agent of the Board OF Health
in such district, if any, otherwise to the
nearest Agent of the Board of Health.
Section 3. Any police officer or deputysher-
if who shall wilfully fail to comply with the
provisions Of Section 2 of this Act shall be
deemed guilty of a misdemeanOr, and upon
conviction thereof before any Police or
District Justice, shall be fined in a sum not
less than ten nor more than two hundred
dollars, and shall be dismissed from office.
Section 4. This Act shall take effect
from and after the date of its approval
This is one of the most important bills
of the Session and will doubtless be
passed, in some form or other. That it
will be an unpopular bill, and will make
the Government unpopular with large
class is equally certain. 1t requires the
courage OF conviction to introduce such
a bill, and to advocate and vote for it,
We feared that the present Legislature
were not going to grapple with the lep-
rosy question. In no one particular can
a government deserve more of the Ha-
waiian people than by vigorous and
successful graphing with this problem,
and if this Government and Legislature
do so succeed they will add another to
the list of their sound claims on the pub
lie confidence and support.
