cult Of the globe in slxty-one days.
Ii is impossible to predict and
scarcely worth while to speculate
on the limit of speed to be reached
by ocean steamers. The model
proposed by the celebrated yacht
builder, Herresehoff, seems the best
adapted for achieving the highest
speed. His model cuts away from
the water line at the stem, bring
ing the line of keel in great curve
from amidships up to the bow, Civ
ing the ship tendency to rise over
rather than push through the
water
The speed of locomotives has
been also increased greatly in the
course of the last few years. In
England the highest rate made by
any regular daily train is 553 miles,
but this only for SO minutes, or 33}
miles. The London x North West
ern and the Great Western each
run daily train at 534 miles, the
one for 10! miles and the other for
IA miles, while the longest run
without stoppago is l24 miles, at
4S per hour.
These rates and distances have
been far exceeded on special occa-
sions in various parts OF the world,
notably SO N the States and during
the recent tour OF the President,
but compare this with the wonder
Of 1880 when Stephenson with his
Rocket won the prize of $500 for
exceeding the specified speed which
was ten miles an hour. The Rocket
actually reached maximum of
29 and an average of Is miles an
hour.
Electricity as motive power is
daily growing in favor, though it is
not yet available for heavy loads,
high speed or long stages, but the
young men of the present day may
live to see travel increased and re-
modelled as completely as their
fathers have seen it.

SEPT. 2 was the first observance OF
the birth anniversary of Her Ma
jesty QUEEN LILIUoKALANl, the first
reignIng queen of Hawaii. And
though it occurred amid gloomy sur
roundings in the palace, with the
pail spread over the lifeless re-
mains of her royal consort, yet
Rawaiians of every class were as
ready to give to her that loyal ale
glance which they have ever given
to their sovereigns from the days
of Kamehameha the Great. None
of her predecessors ascended the
throne under such gloomy circum-
stances as she. All will remember
how the happy anticipations of that
January morning were so suddenly
turned into sorrow; and again the
festive birthday preparations OF
last week are dashed aside by the
rude hand of Death. Yet, notwith-
standing these events, all look for
ward to happy and ausplcious
reign for the only Royal Queen
Hawaii has ever had, at least in
modern times.

DEDUCTIVE reasoning is . sort of
instinct with which most persons
are more or less endowed. Given
3 set of persons, incidents or cir
cumstances it is enough to enable
one to deduce from the chain of
events another chain of exciting
causes. The case of two servant
Cinnamon decided in the Police
Court on Monday, where the pris-
oners pleaded guilty and were
fined $3.50 apiece, with six hours
Imprisonment, makes one question
who these two Cinnamon were;
how came the opium into their
possession; why did they plead
guilty SO very readily; why was
the punishment limited to (practic-
ally) q fine of $500; was the fine
paid on the spot, if SO, by whom?
What relationship does the sum of
$500 bear to the presumed value of
the opium, on the one hand, and to
the loss of time, etc, of the China
men on the other? How much
opium was confscated, what is
the total loss on the opium seized,
fines paid, law and other expenses
and who loses 1t 3?

SWIFT TRAVELLING.

One Of the greatest objects sought
by men of science and mechanics Of
the present day is rapidity of COM
munIcation; and the immense
strides that have been taken in for
warding this object, within only the
last quarter Of century, seem act
uaIly marvellous even to ourselves,
and would have been rated as i'm
possibilities to our own fathers.
In 1866 the Trans Continental
Railway was not yet complete, and
passengers from New York to San
Francisco went round by Panama.
When the railway was first opened
the trains took q week from ocean
to ocean, and ten to twelve days
was an exceptionally fast passage
across the Atlantic. Now, how
ever, the Atlantic passage has been
cut down to six days, and even, by
the Teutonic, Majestic and City of
Paris, to little over FIVE and a half
days, and the Continent has been
crossed in four days sixteen hours,
or ten days eight hours actual
travelling from San Francisco to
Queenstown.

conditions Of their franchise, are
bound 10 construct and maintain a
good roadway between their rails
and for two feet on the outside Of
either rail, and the space between
the two pairs of rails wherever
there is . loop or passing point,
this roadway to be kept up flush
with the rails; from the two-foot
line TO the sidewalk the mainten-
ance of the road is the business of
the Government.
Now let US see how this works.
When the rails were first laid the
road was broken up for the neces-
sary width, the rails laid at level
prescribed by the Government, the
space between the rails and two
feet outside each rail was macadam-
lied by the Tramway Company,
and the width of the sidewalk re-
constructed, or not, as was practic-
able or convenient to the Govern
ment.
We have only to lock around
and see very apt illustrations Of
how the work ought to be done
and of how it ought not TO be done,
one of the former and two of the
latter.
In Fort street, above Beretana
street, the roadway is now being
reconstructed on the Waikiki side.
The whole roadway from sidewalk
to rails is we'll graded, well laid,
and well rolled flush with the rails.
1t will bother neither Government
nor Tramway Company, nor the
public, for years, with perhaps q
little occasional patching. This is
how it ought To be done.
In Nuuanu avenue from Pauoa
towards the town. the company is
renewing its two foot line on either
side of the rails, but from the edge
of this new work to the sidewalk,
are ruts and ridges; indeed from
Pauoa to School street, the road
has never been properly re-made
on the Eva side, since 1t was torn
up for the new water service,
nearly two years ago. The conse-
quence is plain.
The work in the two foot space,
will be cut up, burst, and worked
down into the slough on either side
of it, till the rails are again left
bare and two inches above the
road.
The company's rails and road
bed were pitched unnecessarily
high in the first instance, and the
road has never been graded up to
the same level, so of necessity, the
raised two feet outside the rails is
speedily pounded away into the
lower level. The same causes and
effects, to an even greater degree
may be seen in Alakea street, from
Beretania to Hotel streets, the
same high level rail, the same low
level road-bed, and the same des-
truction of the two-foot road.
The fact is that the Government |
and the company should endeavor
to work together more or less, or
each will only destroy instead OF |
fortify the others work.
Nuuanu and Alakea streets show |
how the work ought NOT to be
done, and the two sides of Fort |
street give an admirable illustra-
ton of the above remarks.

Family with Traditions.

Sometimes we come upon family

need of family portraits or yellow
title deed to proc lain this is house
with traditions. The walls breathe
them. as old chests breathe lavender.
Chairs, tables and trumpery knlck-
knacks upon the mantels and the cor
ner shelves take airs to themselves as
having had their beauty at compound
interest years and years, and all ou'
ioin in the conversation. Is q story
told? Age has lent it boquet tine as
of wine in cobwebbed vaults. Is
song sung? Ten to one it is very
silly old song, but it has the charm o.
an heirloom. And as you watch the
family move and speak ad smile, yo'
are dimly aware that it is in accord
ance with laws and customs all thei
own.
They live in an atmosphere OF In
