SIen In the woman, HuiIdjpg

Somebody had been calling the atten-
On of the wife of the Maharajah OF Ku-
purthala to objects of special interest at
Jackson park so that IS the WOman's
building" she said as the great white
structure was pointed out TO her. do
they allow men inside its walls
The question is amusing IN itself, and
yet great big Interrogation mark of
the same md has appeared before the
blurred >-ons of a thousand men who
have paused at its threshold.
1t cannot fail of notice that the man
who wanders through the Woman's
building seems invariably embarrassed
and i'll at ease. If he goes alone, he looks
conscience stricken, glancing furtively
about as if expecting to be elected. He
doesn't allow himself to become deeply
interested in anything, and when he
finally reaches the bronze statue of Left
Ericsson at the west portal he feels re-
lieved.
Naturally enough the married man ac-
companied by his wife shrivels into in
significance in this atmosphere. He be-
comes merely the husband of the woman
and looks on meekly as she makes the
rounds. He feels about IL years old and
feet inches In height. He may have
been always the self assertive, domineer-
ing lord and master of his household, but
- minutes of the Woman's building re-
duces him to minus quantity. He feels
submissive to painful degree.
Yes, the women allow men inside the
WOman's building. But in the nature
of things they can't encourage such in
vasions.-Chicago Record

STATION AND SUBSCRIBER
The Automatic apparatus TO Pre-
vent Lighting Companies
From Being Cheated.

The average householder has
long been reconciled TO the fact
that while he is at the mercy of the
gasman and the meter, he has avail
able no.resource by which he can
steal march on the gas company,
and thus even up the imposition
under which he often so helplessly
suffers. In electric lighting these
conditions have heretofore been ex-
actly reversed. While electric
lighting companies have been as 4
rule most fair and just in their
charges, they have been in the posi-
ton of being exposed more or less
to the dishonest practices of those
who desired to take advantage of
ofthem.
a great many electric light sta
tons permit their subscribers to
put in as many lamps as they de-
sire into their residences, stipu-
lating, however, that only limited
number shall be used at q time.
To prevent fraud it is customary to
employ committing devices, by
means of which the current may
be switched rapidly from one
circuit to another, or fuses of
limited capacity, permitting the
passage Of only a certain amount
of current but both these plans
are open to objection, and are in
efficient from one cause or another
A device has been brought out
which automatically restricts the
consumption Of current within GER
tain predetermined limits, so that
the station is quite sure that the
subscriber is using just the amount
of current he pays for.
The arrangement is somewhat
complicated, but it's working is as
follows When the specified num-
Der of lamps have been lighted
they require an amount Of current
just sufficient to keep the circuit
closed. But if an additional lamp
be lighted, the excess of current
passing through the mechanism of
the tell-tale device magnetizes an
electromagnetic strongly enough to
attract an armature. The move
ment Of this armature causes a
wheel to revolve, and the revolu-
ton of the wheel breaks the circuit
and turns the addi-
tional lamp off. This restores the
normal supply of current, and the
proper number of lamps continue
to burn steadily. The clock motor
in this apparatus runs a
fortnight, and is constructed to
give 2700 Interruptions, which
is deemed sufficient for
practical purposes.-Am. Elk.

quently compelled to vigorously
protest against the inequality of
the German enforcement of the
law. King Malietoa, of Samoa,
was held a prisoner during Mr..
Morgan's residence at the island.
During his sojourn there Mr..
Morgan had a multitude of duties
to perform, which he discharged to
the eminent satisfaction of all con-
cerned. When the Pacific navi-
cation company went out Of exist
ence Mr.. Morgan returned TO San
Francisco and entered the Office Of
Scrivener & Schell.
He remained with them two
years, when he established his own
office. Mr.. Morgan was the first
notary to be appointed in this city
after Governor Markham took office.
He enjoys a large practice and has
invariably proved successful. He
is an accomplished linguist and
possesses those characteristics upon
which all success in life is built

Slow Compliance With Law.

Few Of the railroads have yet taken
steps to conform with the law passed
last March regulating safety appliances
for cars and locomotives in coupling.
The number of cars at present fitted with
automatic couplers is something over
166, 000-freight and company cars, Ill.,
600; passenger cars, 10000, and leased
cars, % 900, in round numbers. Accord
ing ITO the latest statistics of the inter
state commerce commission, the number
of cars in the United States is something
over 1875, O00-freight and company
cars, 1,O34 900; passenger cars, 5000,
and leased cars, 1913 900, in round num-
bers. 1t does not follow, however, that
the first group of figures-the number of
cars fitted with automatic couplers-
will remain untouched by the new legis-
lation, for uniformity must be observed,
and consequently large proportion of
the 10000 cars already equipped will
have to undergo repair. On the other
hand, the number of cars equipped with
the master car builders coupler, which
is the single kind most generally in use
and which satisfied the provisions of the
bill, is also large.-New York Post.

Who Goes First?

1 have been consulted by my charm
ing hostess of this week as TO the order
of precedence TO be followed at informal
dinners in this country. L find all New
port somewhat stirred up over this ques-
ton. The presence of royalty and the
establishment of the Pauncefotes there
have led to various complications in 9TH
err households. 1 gave the rules for Eng
fish precedence in q former paper, and
it is needless to repeat that royalty al
ways goes first. As for the rest, l will
simply quote a remark heard last sum-
mer, which amused me greatly and is
more than ever TO the point. Lady B.
asked clever New York man how the
question was determined in America.
She wanted to know in what order peo-
pie were sent to dinner. lin the order
of cash" was the reply.-Vogue.

How often it has been said by
the croakers that there is nc
business, everything is dead,
times are hard, and everything
is going to the bad here in
Honolulu, but the the Cali
fornia Feed Co. are not built
that way; we say business is
good and getting better every
month. And to prove what we
say we have had to take larger
and more commodious ware
houses. We have just COM
pleted arrangements with Mr..
J. f. Colburn, whereby he
gives up his old stand, corner
Queen and Nuuanu streets.
We take possession on Novem-
Der 18th. Our old place at Leleo
is too small for our fast increas-
ing business, hence the change.
We expect the Hawaiian
bark Mauna Ala to arrive
here again in 4 few days
with her fourth full cargo
of hay and grain bought
by our Mr.. J. n. Wright who
will arrive on the bark. We
prefer to select our merchan-
disc ourselves rather than have
others do it, which means
that we get better goods at a
less price.
We thank our many friends
for their liberal patronage for
the past three years, and hope
by strict attention to a bust
ness we thoroughly understand
to merit the patronage of as
many more.
We intend to keep a large,
we'll selected stock of the
very best hay and grain to be
had in the California market,
and we are going to sell it.

F. NJ. MORGAN.

f. NJ. Morgan, the well-known
attorney and notary public, led
very eventful life before he settled
down to active practice in this city.
He was born in Wales and came to
this state with his parents Iii 1857,
when he was about five years OF
age. He received a public school
education and his tastes led him to
take up the study of the law. Mr..
Morgan afterwards went to Homo
lulu, where he entered the employ
of Castle 81 Cooke. In August, 1886,
he was sent to the Marshall islands
as manager for that firm, and after
remaining there about q year he
was appointed United States con-
sular agent. The islands were I'M
der the German protectorate. The
natives were in the great majority
professionals, and had been educated
by English and American mission
aries, so consequently German rule
was unsatisfactory to them. AS a
consequence Mr.. Morgan was fire.
