The Hotel Man Had His Fun.

From the st. Louis Republic.
Col. George Cook, the manager Of Hurst
Hotel, had an experience with a guest of that
house yesterday which was rather disappoint-
ing and surprising. A stranger registered there
a week ago under the name Of James b. Simp-
son, Boston. ''what kind Of q room do Won
want?" inquired Col. Cook. The stranger paid
no attention. The question was repeated. Mr..
Simpson took out slate and pencil, handed
1t to Cook, and sand in q quiet way, II am
deaf, my friend. Give me good accommo-
dstlons, please, and write on the slate your best
rates."
Mr.. Cook did asrequested. Mr. Simpson went
to his room and since the day he arrived Cook
him rs he walked around the hotel Office Look
at him, /" he would say, ''the deaf chump. Where
did he get his whiskers? Hey there, old jay,
keep of the grass. Where did you get that
mug?" &c.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Simpson, with smile
on his face and roll Of bills in his hand,
walked up to the register and inquired the
amount of his bill
II ought to charge you hundred, but - You
are unfortunate III let you down light" he re-

How Little Kings Are known.

From the Spectator.
1t is curious fact, considering the great in
terest taken in crowned heads. that of all the
leading statesmen in Europe the kings are the
least accurately known Even Queen Victoria
is scarcely understood by her own people. and
we shall probably find. when the memoirs of
her reign come to be published. that 1.-THE best
of constitutional sovereigns" had MANY quail
ties, and marked qualities, besides her deve-
ton to duty, and the truthfulness, quite un-
usual in its degree. to which minister after min
lister has borne testimony. That the Emperor
OF Austria is great dIplomatist. that be is de-
voted TO the house of Hapsburg and that be
can patiently tolerate constitutional forms has
long been widely known, but Of the remainder
Of his character no one outside a most
limited circle has the least idea. There
are men who should know who say
he is an ordinary Hapsburg. rather
wanting in the usual knowledge of highly
cultivated men, but with a certain instinct for
governing. and there are others equally quail
fed who believed him to be a kind of Ulysses
hiding acute penetration and something not far
removed from cunning under mask Of mag
nitcent manners. That he is dutiful no one
doubts. but the object 10 which he considers
that duty should be paid is not so clear. nor
will il be unless destiny should unexpected BY
divide the interests of his empire and of his
house. hitherto throughout his reign insepara-
Bile. The King of Italy is generally regarded as
an able officer, with much knowledge of foreign
politics and some trmness, but that description
does not constitute character, and of his re-
naming qualities, except that he is a good
manager of finance and has in him somewhere
the Sayoyard tendency to plot, nothing seems
to be clearly discerned. Even Of the Emperor
of Germany. with his fondness for being wish
BILE, for rut hing about and for making speeches
little is known, or, rather much is known. but
the knowledge produces nothing but perple1ity.

From the Inventive Age.
The sensation produced last October by the
long distance transmission of electricity from
the Falls Of Lanffin to the motor in the Frank
fort exhibition, 1913 miles, has been increased
by the special report Of Prot. Weber's COM
mittee, which, according to Consul General
Mason, states that there was an initial loss vary
ing from to 10 per cent in the generating dy-
namo. and that, deducting this FROM the whole
aggregate loss hitherto estimated, it follows
that the proportion OF created energy actually
available ut the exposition was from 80 to 80 per
cent of the current that was actually delivered
to the condensing transformer at Lauffen. In
other words, there was a loss in the dynamo Of
from to 10 per cent. which may, by more per-
feet construction, be saved. and which should
not be charged to the debit side of the long
distance experiment
The net result is, therefore, thnt the actual
and necessary loss Of energy during the triple
process Of transform ming a current Of from 200
to 800 horse power into current Of small
volume but high intensity, transmitting this
intensifed current distance Of los miles over
naked copper wires hung upon ordinary tele-
graph poles by oil and porcelain insulators, re-
transforming 1t into q current Of ordinary pres
sure, was only Is to 20 per cent, leaving from
50 TO 50 per cent Of the generated current
available for motive or lighting purposes.
This practically settles the possibility ed
long distance transmission, and henceSorth
every stream with full and rapid dow enough 70
move . turbine win be seized upon by capital
lists and syndicstss for motor purposes.

HOW TO PRONOUNCE "HAwAII."


Peculiarities of the Sandwich Islands Lam
Guage Sounds.
From the New York Sun.
SLOW do you pronounce the name Of the
island kingdom which wants to be annexed to
the United States?'' is a question frequently
propounded and variously answered nowadays.
The most commonly accepted pronunciation,
and the one authorized by Lippincott's, Wor-
cester's, Webster's and the Century's dictiona-
ries is, for the name of the principal island of
the group, "Hah-wi-e,'' the second syllable
accented, and the a. pronounced as in ''pine."
The same question WAS once asked of high
caste Hawaiian lady, well educated in her own
and the English language She answered:
1.-The proper pronunciation Is Hah-vah-e-e.
There is no w in our alphabet, and no letter
nor combination of letters which take the
sound Of w as in English. The missionaries
who first translated our language found 1T
difficult to pronounce or express the sound
which ia, to my ear, correctly conveyed by the
letter W softened and made full Our "a is
pronounced broad, as you pronounce it in
fall and our Il is like the English e. The
rule Is to pronounce every vowel, and the
exception TO the rule does not affect the double
Il in Hawaii. you will see that the word is
'Hah-yah-e-s''
These are the twelve letters in the Hawaiian
language, with their pronunciation: "A (ah),
e (al, i (e), o (oh), (oo), (hay), K Qksy),
I! Slah), m (moo), (noo), (pay), (vay).
There is no sound OF ''i' as in the English lam
guage, except where al follows wv" or rs
the Hawaiian lady would insist .'y." There is a
great difference in the languageRs spoken by
the high and low caste of Hawaiians. The low
caste speak with succession of explosive.
staccato gutterals; the high caste with \ liquid
flow that makes it beautiful language. The
insistance upon the ''v'' instead Of the "w"
sound is considered. even by some Of the well
educated and all Of the uneducated, as some
thing of an affectation, and one hears "Hah-
vah-e-e' on the islands. instead OF 'Hah-
wah-e, about as often as ''vahse" instead Of
vase" in American society,"

Two Tugs Go Continue the Work ON the

The term Of service Of the ice feet expired
yesterday. During their ten dsys Of work
they have broken ice from the Aqueduct
bridge to below Maryland Point. The
ice has not passed out and IL was
thought wise TO continue the work and
be on the alert for gorces. Yesterday Mr.. Henry
Brown, superintendent OF the American Towing
Company of Baltimore, had u long consultation
with Harbor Master Sutton and the matter was
laid before the Commissioners. The result
Is that the tugs Emma and Vulcan
are today operating against the ice IL the
vicinity Of Indian Head and MARYLAND Point.
The Samson is tied up for repairs
because tomorrow she has 90 undergo her
