The Voice of Niagara.

In an article on Niagara Falls, an
evening paper observes, anent the mighty
roar of its waters: One can never forget
the effect of listening to this mighty
voice for the first time, nor is it an un-
pleasant sound which assails the ear.
The roar is positively musical, they say,
and a few years ago a distinguished
American organist spent a long time in
studying it, and trying to learn the meas
ure and compass of its tones. He finally
came to the conclusion that the deepest
toni made by the falling cataract was
that which would be produced by an
organ pipe about 100 feet in length, and
of proportionate dimensions as organ pipes
are made. Now, 100 feet, which is
about the height Of the falls (this varies
from 100 feet to nearly $50 feet, is much
longer than any organ pipe is made, and
the sound emitted by such a pipe would
not be sensible to us as a musical sound.
Therefore our ears could not apprehend
the music of the deepest tones; and as
our ears are at fault, we give this deep
tones music such discordant epithets as
noise and roar.
h story, according to one account,
seems incorrectly stated. The ~organist
in question suggested a sound not nearly
three octaves below thirty-two feet G,
but about F sharp below that note. The
present writer tried 10 define the vast
harmonic hum of the great waterfalls,
and came to the conclusion that the task
was all but hopeless, although a steady
kind of o n seems to be maintained,
and certainly the imagination might
readily seize upon such a note as the u
thority in question named, but whether
the indefinite sound could be described
as of foundation or upper partial tone
character it would be altogether impossi-
BILE to say.-London Musical World.

The Origin of Ideas.

While Capt. (afterward Sir SamusD
Brown was occupied in studying the
construction of bridges, with the view of
continuing n of a cheap description to
be thrown across the Tweed, near which
he lived, he was walking in his garden
n dewy autumn morning, when he
saw a tiny SPIDERS net suspended across
his path. The idea Immediately occurred
to him that a bridge of iron ropes or
chains might be constructed in like man
ner, and the result was the invention of
his suspension bridge. So James Watt,
when consulted about the mode of car
rying water by pipes under the Clyde,
along the unequal bed of the river, turned
his attention one day to the shell of a
lobster presented at table, and from that
model he invented IN iron tube, which,
when laid down, was found effectually
to answer the purpose. Sir Isembert
Brunei took his first lessons in forming
the Thames tunnel from the tiny ship
worm. He saw how the little creature
perforated the wood with its well armed
head, first in one direction and then in
another, till the archway was complete,
and then daubed over the roof and sides
with a kind of varnish, and by copying
this work exactly on a large scale Brunei
was at length enabled to construct his
shield and accomplish his great engineer
ing work.-Once a Week.

The Democrats have put up a lady
for county superintendent of schools. 1t
is a practical recognition by the party of
woman's suffrage. The only question
then involved is, Is the lady qualified to
fill the place? She is most assuredly.
She IS a graduate of Swarthmore college,
near Philadelphia, the oldest female edu-
c%ational institution in the state of Penn
~sylvania. She taught in the public schools
of her native state for several terms and
therefore in the matter of education and
practical experience is fitted to fill the

From the facts at our command, there
is evidence that individual storage of life
may be far greater than the vast ma
jority of people either expect or hope for.
The mean duration of life in England
instances upon instances in which this
storage of life is doubled, and some in
which it is trebled. I recently had, in
the consulting room, at the same time,
three gentlemen, whose united ages
reached the total of 262 years, or over 81
years each, and each with a fair promise
of from four to five years of life at least.
l also, within the resent quarter, saw,
on the same day. ,yo gentlemen, whose
united ages gave lGG years, or an aver
age of 90 years each. 1 nave seen, and
carefully examined physically, a woman
who had attained the 6 of los years,
and who lived afterward for three or
four years; and 1 once conducted an au-
topsy of a man who had passed his 93d
year.
There was nothing in the social condi-
ton of the individuals concerned that
could of itself account for such an IN
usual storage of life as that which they
presented. Two of those specially re-
ferred to were men of the highest class
of mental power; the other has come
down from n of the oldest of the noble
families of Europe; a fourth has fought
his way from the lowest position to
n of affluence and power; while the
oldest of all was, from first to last, in
abject poverty and was in a workhouse.

NO FEAR OF THE RESULT.

1t is already quite evident that the
efforts of the Republican party managers
are concentrated in the endeavor to damn
with faint praise Perry Organ, the Demo
cratic candidate for delegate in congress.
They can allege nothing against his pri-
vate character or his business integrity in
a community where he has lived for a
score of years, because nobody who
knows Mr.. Organ will believe a word
oft.
They have therefore already introduced
a campaign Of insinuation and innuendo.
Mr.. Organ is a good man, they will not
attempt to deny it, but then Mr.. Organ,
you know, while he represents the sturdy
sentiments of the common people would
never made a kidgloved representative at
Washington Tor the cattle barons and
dudes of this commonwealth.
The Democratic party of Wyoming in
selecting Mr.. Organ, by a common i'm
pulse, as the standard bearer in this terri
tory, never paused to inquire whether he
was a representative of the kid
gloved clement or whether he
wore clothes which we're made for him in
Europe. They looked first for the funda
mental element of character, and found it.
They looked for a man who is a man in
the manifest sense of the term, and found
him. They looked for a man, who com
ing himself from the common people,
would represent the bone and sinew of the
sturdy manhood and womanhood of Wyo.
ming. They looked for a man whose
private record and public career contained
nothing which the party would be con-
strained to palliate or apologize for. They
ness interests, and constant contact with
the masses of the people. made him
thoroughly acquainted with the wants of
the territory. They looked for a man
who freely expressed his honest convic-
tions under all circumstances, who was
not the representative of any clique of
dilletante politicians, who, wrapped up in
their own serene. and naughty exclusive
ness, affect to talk for the whole people.
In a word, they looked for a man of the
people, and such a man they found in
Caleb Perry Organ. They have a candi-
date of whose public and private record
they are proud. They have a candidate
who will represent the entire people, for
no one knows their wants better than he.
They have a candidate who, if elected, will
be in sympathy with the Democratic ma
jority in the house at Washington and we
sincerely and firmly believe with the COM
ing administration
Take the two candidates. Let them be
considered in the light of upright and
honorable men, in the light of progressive
business men, i'll the light of sturdy rep
r sentatives eff the best products of West
ern civilization, or in the light of their
ability to represent the needs OF the people
in the next congress. Let this be doLe
honestly and candidly and the Democrats
of this territory have no fear of the popu

Der.

concur IN the opinion delivered
by the Chief Justice and, in the de-
claration that the Act in question is
unconstitutional and therefore void,
and have but little to add.
1t was argued by the Attorney
General that as the offices of third
and fourth Associate Justices were
created by an Act of the Legislature
therefore the Offices might be abolish
ed by another Legislature repeating
such law, and he also contended that
such offices were held by virtue of
such law only. But he conceded
that if the offices were held by
virtue of the law and under the
constitution, the law in question
would be unconstitutional.
Article 65 of the Constitution of
Kamehameha V. provides that the
Supreme Court shall consist of a
Chief Justice and not less than two
Associate Justices, and that the
Justices shall hold their Offices dur
ing good behavior, subject to re-
moval by impeachment, etc.
Article 66 provides that the tenure
of office in the inferior courts shall
be such as shall be defined by the
law creating them.
The Legislature by the law of
1886, having full authority to do SO,
enacted that the Supreme Court
should consist of a Chief Justice
and Four Associate Justices.
Mr.. Justice Bickerton was APP
pointed Third Associate Justice
under this Act on the 2Sth Decem-
ber, 1886, and thercupon became a
Justice of the Supreme Court, the
only court established by the Con,
stitution, and consequently held his
office under the Section, 65, and sub
ject only to removal in terms of such
section.
This Kingdom had obtained by the
Constitution of Kamehameha the
3rd and by that of Kamehameha the
9th, u tenure of office for the JUS
tices of the Supreme Court free and
independent from the control of the
Crown and the Legislature, a posi-
ton which had only been obtained
in some other countries after years
of agitation and struggling with the
Crown, and it would be In my OPT

called upon the Attorney-General to

Justice of the Supreme Court.
January 3, 1888.
Mr.. Justice Bickerton was ap-
pointed and commissioned as Third
| Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court ON the 28th December, 1886.
The Act of 2Gth November, 1887
repeals in terms the Act of 1886, in
pursuance of which Justice Bcker-
ton was appointed, and re-enacts
certain statutes which by that Act
were repealed7-the intention of the
Act of 1887 being to repeal the
existing provisions of law that the
Supreme Court shall consist of a
Chief Justice and four Associate
Justices, and to provide that it shall
consist of Chief Justice and two
| Associates.
The Constitution, Article G5, pro-
vides that the Supreme Court shall
consist Of a Chief Justice and not
less than two Associate Justices. 1t
is within the power of the Legisla-
ture to increase the number of As

McCULLY, JUSTICE.

In stating my concurrence with
the opinion of the Court as delivered
by the Chief Justice, 1t is not neces-
sary TO go over the whole ground as
it has been discussed, or to re-state
the authorities quoted, or quote fur
ther authorities in support of the re-
suit we have arrived at. This is not
a case in which there is any conflict
of authorities.
The Act of 1886 required that to
constitute the Supreme Court there
should be Chief Justice and four
Associate Justices. Art. So of the
Constitution in prescribing that the
Supreme Court shall consist of a
Chief Justice and not less than two
Associate Justices plainly provides
for the creation Of more than two
Associate Justices by statute, But
when a statute is enacted requiring
more than two Associate Justices
and such additional Justices have
