Prof. 4. b. Lyons OF Oahu College and
Master Hiram Bingham were the ex-
ploiters of Diamond Head. They made
the descent IN time TO see the fire in the
balloon.
Professor Melville had engaged the
services of the steam launch Nasa, in
charge of Mr.. Frank Godfrey, to rescue
him from the perilS of an ocean descent,

Trousseau's steam launch and a number

danger to seward.
Messrs Williams, SEVERN, and Con
salves, of the regular Photographic guild,

were also supposed to be pointing their

To THE PUBLIC OF HoNoLULU:
BY reason of several accidents caused
by uncomfortable circumstances. | was
unable to make my balloon ascension
Saturday. | am exceedingly sorry, for
this was the first time L ever failed to
make a successful ascension. The un
usually strong winds that were blowing
(and which alone caused the fire and
damage), rendered it the greatest diff
Guilty to conduct the initiation. However,
in order that the public may have an Op-
pOrtunity of witnessing one of my ascen-
siOns, L purpose giving an exhibition
from some prominent point IN the city,
on next Saturday afternoon-free to the
entire public, notice of which will be
given in the daily papers. As the mis-
fortune of Saturday was entirely caused
by accidents, ! do not hold myself in any
way responsible or blamable, but, so that
the public may witness my exhibition, |
will give the free ascension above-men-
toned. EMIL l.. MELVILLE,

Fire in the Mountains.

Shortly before O'Clock yesterday
evening a large fire was observed in
KaIihi valley near the opening to sea-
ward. 1t made a belt OF clear flame from
the foot to the summit Of the mountain,
on the EVA side OF the valley. When
our reporter viewed the fire from the top
of a two-story building in town about
with every probability of spreading.
There will likely be the loss OF a big
tract Of wild fruit and valuable timber
forest, with all the dependent evils OF
damaging the water supply OF the set
tiers in the valley, increasing the pre-
vailing drouth, etc. These fires in the
environing mountains of Honolulu are
becoming SO common as TO demand the
attention OF the Government.

DR.. w. s. Searle. in North American Review.
Rut If the physical results of alcohol are
varied. much more diverse are it's effects
upon the mental and moral nature of man.
Indeed, they are as multifOrm as man HIM
self. One general classification only is pos
slble. Certain individuals fortunately the
small minority are always p~leasurably
affected by stimulants. Each successive
dose arouses in them increased exhilara-
tion. and when intoxication supervenes,
their sensations are delightful. Their every
sense Is exalted; they fancy themselves
endued with every gift-with all power
and possession. AS often remarked, these
are generally men of the most brilliant in
%tellect, and of the most charming moral
qualities. One led captive by alcohol.
these unfortunates seldom have sufficient
power of will to refrain from renewed in
diligence. No moral considerations avail to
restrain them, and. with few exceptions,
they yield wholly, finally and fatally othe
tempter. For such men total abstinence is
the only refuge. Upon the large
majority of men the effects of al
cohol, taken to intoxication, are clearly
and essentially different; although at first
exhilarated. repeated indulgence brings
drowsiness, dizziness of apprehension, anas-
thesla, vertigo, nausea and yomitiDg-in
short, bodily and mental symptoms which
are excessively disagreeable. OF this class
very few become drunkards, and those are
men to whom anRsthesia becomes desirable
as a temporary refuge from bodily pain OF
mental distress. Herein lies the sole expla-
nation of the fact that the proportion OF
drunkards to moderate and habitat drink
ers remains so small.
