Where COlOrs Come From,

The cochineal insects furnish Il great
many of the very fine colors. Among
them are the gorgeous carmine, the Grim
son, scarlet carmine, and purple lakes.
The cuttlefsh gives the sepia. 1t is
the inky fuid which the fish discharges
in order to render the water Opaque when
attacked.
Indian yellow comes from the camel.
Ivory chips produce the ivory black
and bone black,
The exquisite Prussian blue is made by
fusing horses hoofs and other refuse
animal matter with impure potassium
carbonate, This color was discovered
accidentally.
Various lakes are derived from roots,
banks, and gums.
Blue black comes from the charcoal of
the vine stalk. Lamp black is SCOT from
certain resinous substances.
Turkey red is made from the madden
plant, which grows in Hindostan.
The yellow sap of tree of Siam pro-
duces gamboge; the natives catch the ss
in cocoanut shells. Raw sienna is the
natural earth from the neighborhood OF
Sienna, Italy Raw lumber is also an
earth found near Umbria and burned.
India ink is made from burned cam
phor. The Chinese are the only man
ufacturers of this ink, and they will not
reveal the secret of its manufacture.
Mastic is made from the gum of the
mastic tree, which grows in the Grecian
Archipelago.
Bistre is the SCOT of wood ashes.
Very little real ultramarine is found in
the market. 1t is obtained from the
precious lapisluzuli, and commands a
fabulous price.
Chinese white is zinc, scarlet in iodide
of mercury, and native vermillion is from
the quicksilver ore called cinnabar. =

Electrical Lights.

There are now in use in the United
States more than 5000 central electrical
stations for light and power. There are
200, 900 arc lights, and 100000 mean
descent lamps.
The newest rival to the electric light
is zirconia, the oxide of chromium, a
metal found in North Carolina. Over a
Buusen burner is fitted a glass chimney,
in which is suspended a
hollow cotton wick saturated
with zirconin in the form of a white
powder. When the gas is turned on
and a match is applied, the wick is i'm
mediately consumed, but the zirconia
remains as a thin, delicate, snow white,
hollow column, which heats white hot
and CLOVIS like an electric light, and
seems almost to last for ever if it does
not get broken.

A German scientist wishes to deter
mine by means of photography if the
moon is inhabited, and it is said that the
King of Wurtemberg has decided, in
order to solve this interesting problem,
to cause to be made, in the best possible
condition, photographs of the moon;

M. de Susini, Corsican doctor, has,

A young German student of Assyriology
has been experimenting with soft tiles
and stylus, and concludes that the AS
syrians wrote their cuneiform lines with
cube-shaped instrument having a
pointed end, which was made of wood,
not metal. He processes to find 1t very
easily to write cuneiform as rapidly as
German with such stylus.
1t is calculated that a range of mount
aims consisting of 176 cubic miles of
solid rock falling into the sun would
only maintain the heat for single sec
ond. A mass equal to that of the earth
would maintain the heat for only ninety
three years, and mass equal to that of
the sun itself falling into the sun would
afford $4,000, 600 years of sun heat.
Professor Hirschberg declares in a
Viennese medical paper that Professor
Ebers, the well-known novelist, has
rendered great service to medical sci
ence by the discovery, translation and re-
production in facsimile of part of val
liable MS. containing medical recipes
used in Egypt and written about 1900
years before Christ, The portion trans
lated and annotated by Ebers treats OF

The multiplicity and variety of the den

Baron Badly Bruised.

Baron Alfred de Rothschild was the
victim Of what might have been a seri-
Gus accident during the recent naval
maneuvres on the Thames river, Eng
land. He was sitting beside the fore
hatch on one of the steamers, resting his
leg on a ledge. Suddenly some sight
caused the passengers to rush to the fore
part of the vessel, and in the scramble
the covering of the hatch fell, crushing
Alfred's leg To complicate matters.
two Lascars, who rushed up to assist
him, jumped on the hatch, in order to
press the covering down, entirely ignor-
ing the fact that his lordship's leg was
what prevented the cover from being
rammed home. Eventually they were
made to understand the situation, and
the baron was rescued, badly cut and
bleeding profusely, but with no limbs
broken.

AN ALCOHOLIC TRANCE.

In the Quarterly Journal of Inebrietp,
DIR. Crothers writes of the s'Alcoholic Trance
in Criminal Cases." maintaining that s'the
trance state in inebriety is distinct brain
condition." that this brain state is one in
which all memory and consciousness of acts
or words are suspended" and that during
this trance period crime against person OF
property may be committed without any
motive or apparent plan, usually unforeseen
and unexpected" He also maintains that this
condition should be fully recognized by court
and jury, and the measure of responsibility
and punishment suited to each case: that
they should not be punished as criminals,
nor should they be liberated as sane men:
they should be housed and confined in hos
pitfalls" This alcoholic trance" which
makes possible the unconscious commission
of crime, certainly involves great peril to the
community. This view makes yet more OBJ
vious the Importance of abstinence. and the
suppression of the drink traffic, to the end
that the dangerous alcoholic trance NAV
be avoided and prevented. National Adj

A Dog That Showed Sense.

A little crowd of seedy men, says the
New York Tribune, were gathered the
other night about one of the ugly fur
naces that defaced City Hall Park, while
the contractors were covering the plaza
with asphaltum. They were warming
their bodies in the larry smoke that
streamed out of it, and had deserted the
seats under the trees where they had
slept most of the summer.
~ saw a queer thing happen here yes
terday," said one of them. "a big New
foundland dog, with muzzle on him,
was following boy along Mail street,
when a little bull terrier made dash for
him and got death grip on one of the
big fellows ears. 1t was all. done SO
quick that the Newfoundland was being
well chewed before he knew what struck
him, He gave howl and a snap at the
little brute, but his muzzle would no,
allow him to open his jaws, and the bull
terrier chewed away like mad, All he
could do was to turn tail and run, but
the TERROR did not loose his grip and
went along, too. They dashed through
the crowd, passed the fountain, and out
on the plaza here, where the big fellow
nearly ran over pail of smoking hot tar
that was standing for moment by the
side of workman, who had stepped to
light his pipe,
"Quick as a flash the big dog stopped,
and threw his head as high in the air as
he could. This dragged the little terrier
well off his feet, and nearly tore the ear
from the head of the Newfoundland, but
when the little brute came down again,
he lit plump in the pail of burning tar.
He let go quick enough then, you bet,
and as the big fellow trotted off, shaking
his head, | felt like giving him cheer
for his smartness.

A CATHOLIC CRUSADER

Miss Sallie A. Moore, of Philadelphia,
President of st. Malachy's Ladies' Total Alb

first Catholic woman to address a public as

priests. This was at the last annual conven-
ton of the Catholic Total Abstinence Union
held recently at Cleveland, Ohio. Miss
Moore sends this assurance to Miss Willard:

His Intentions and Opinions.

We clip the following paragraph from
the North British Mail, newspaper
published in Glasgow:
Mr.. Robert Louis Stevenson, in letter
just received by an intimate friend in
Edinburgh, states that his health is
wonderfully improved" and his wife's
"a good deal So" He mentions that
they are to start in a trading
schooner called q The Equator"
for the Gilbert Islands, early in
June; and he adds "our subsequent des-
tination is a mystery to ourselves, it
must depend on luck" incidentally he
expresses the belief that the recent
disaster to the American and German
warships at Samoa will do much to quell
i'll feeling. He observes that even at
Honolulu, where the representatives of
these nations were actually at fisticuffs,
they became like old friends after it.

A Brake Makes a Bad Break.

A runaway accident, that might have
resulted more seriously, took place in
King street, short distance beyond
Thomas Square, on Saturday afternoon
about 2:30 o'clock. A two-wheeled
brake, occupied by two native girls, was
being driven into town, when at the
above point the horse SHE'D at passing
tramcar and bolted. The brake smashed
on telephone post; and a part OF it, in
which were the two girls, became de-
tatched, together with one Of the wheels.
The horse continued running with the
other portion Of the brake until the whole
arrangement went to smithereens. The
girls were not much the worse, but the
brake was considerably distributed

Sailing of the UmatiIIa.

Principally at noon, the hour appointed
for sailing, the Umatilla left the wharf
on Friday and steamed seward. She
carried most unusually large number
of passengers, and there was a very large
crowd Of spectators on the wharf to wit
ness the embarkation of the voyagers,
many of whom are connected with ISL
land families. Many were the fond
adieus and alohas; and. in some cases,
the farewells brought tears to the eyes
of parting friends who might never see
each other again. The CLANS" on the
one narrow gangway were more frequent
than could be wished, and possibly upon
occasions of this kind an Improvement
could be made in the mode of ingress
and egress to the steamers. The depar-
ture of a passenger steamer to San Fran
cisco is a much greater and more impor
tant event at Honolulu than in any other
part of the world, owing chiefly to those
leaving being more widely known in this
isolated community, and also from long
established custom OF taking the last
farewells aboard the steamer or on the
wharf

KOHALA NOTES.

a Marriage at * ohaIa-The Country in
Need of Rain.
The Union church was nicely decor
ated on Tuesday for the marriage of Mr..
Geo. P. Tulloch with Miss Clara Wing,
which took place little after s o'clock
in the evening.
The happy couple stood beneath a
floral bell, from each side of which there
flowed line of braided ferns reaching to
the floor, while the ceremony was per-
formed by the Rev. Thos. Gulick of Wal
luku, who is here on a visit.
The brides dress, with train, was OF a
light shade of pink silk, with front of
white Valenciennes lace, and silvered
cord around the bottom.
The welded pair Immediately drove
out to the residence of Mr.. ]. G. Hattie,
where they have engaged a pleasant
suite OF rooms, and received their
friends. In one OF the rooms, there was
a very pretty display, partly of silver,
but mostly OF choice China-ware and
other articles both useful and ornamental.
A delightful clear moonlight favored the
occasion.
The planters, though cheered by the
present high prices for sugar, are still I'M
easy concerning the coming crop.
Drouth and heat being the prevailing
conditions of the weather. Showers are
far apart and of short duration, and
keepers Of rain gauges find that the
average OF rainfall for the past five
months has been but trife over two
inches a month. Kohala Plantation
