5IF Mr. Harrison's influence be strong
enough to accomplish 1t the legislation
necessary to the annexation Of Hawaii
is to be rushed through congress. Mr.
Harrison has decided to send a message
to congress recommending annexation
and suggesting the terms to be con-
tanned in the legislation. To many this
appears to be as hasty as was the action
of Min ster Stevens in establishing a
protectorate, and is certainly going to
be done with much less to excuse it. 1t
is assumed to be necessary for this gov
eminent to endorse the action of
Stevens, and that being done what
occasion is there for hurrying annexs-
ton? 1t Is well known that so long as
Hawsii is under the protection of the
American flag no European govern
ment will dare to interfere. There is a
great big niger concealed somewhere
in this Hawaiian woodpile, and his feet
will be exposed If there be no undue
haste in the matter.

Two things would suggest In refer
ence to the home rule bill, with all due
respect to people in America who from
time to time declare that the Irish peo-
pie ought to be satisfied with this or
that plan OF settlement, writes John
O'Callaghan in DonAhue's Magazine for
February. The first is, that If the bill
passes it is to be regarded as the last
word on the subject by the Eimperial
parliament. 1t will not be like land
bill, or o labor measure or any other
reform, which if defective in some
points can easily be amended. 1t will
be regarded as final, and the capacity Of
the Irish people for self-government
will be judged by the results which they
achieve under it, whether 1t be a gen.
erous measure or the reverse. If they
fail to make their country prosperous
under home rule, nobody will stop to
inquire whether the failure may not be
due to the unfavorable conditions by
which Ireland may have been ham
pered in the home rule bill.

THE WEIGHT OF A THOUGHT.


How 1t Was Determined by n Roman
Physiological.
A scientific journal of high rcpute is
authority for the statement that Prof.
Masso, the Roman psychologist, has in
vented a machine that will actually
give the weight of thought. To
quote from the account mentioned:
Prof. Masso showed by experiment that
the effort of thinking causes rush of
blood to the brain, this blood-rush va
rying in intensity according to the
thought. lie placed man in the ma
chine, which was SO delicately bal
anced that the rush of blood turned the
scale. The professor says that when
the subject is sleeping the thoughts or
visions which come to him in his
dreams arc sufficient to cause the head
to sink below the feet, and that the
same takes place when the subject is
disturbed by u slight sound.
He further declares that the balance

Collector Wasson to Gather Facts About
Hunters FOR the warships.
PoRr TOWNSEND, April 27.-TSpecial.l l.
Instructions from the treasury department
were received at the custom house today
ordering the collector to obtain all avail
able Data pertaining to sealing vessels
sailing north this year. He is to get what
information he can about the various ves-
sells and deliver it to the commanders of
the government vessels en- route to Bering
sea to enforce the terms Of the modus
vivendi The collector is also required to
obtain similar information respecting
British Columbia sealers. It is neces-
sary to obtain particular description of
the vessels, names of the officers and
crews, number of arms, amount of am
munition and such other information as
will be useful to the naval marine cap
tains.
Judging from the character of tho in
structions. it is evident that the govern
ment intends to rigidiy enforce the laws
in Bering sea this year. The orders to in
dividual commanders. it is authoritatively
stated, is to exercise the strictest measures
in dealing with pelagic seaIers. It 10 ex-
pected that there will be six or eight
United States vessels in Bering sea next
summer, and seaiers will have to be un-
usually alert to escape capture.

DEATHS SHINING MARK.
JUSTICE BLATCHFORD REMOVED
TO A HIGHER COURT.
He Was Conscious Almost to the Last
and Passed Quietly aud Peace
fully Away-A Sketch OF
His Career.

NEWPORT, r. l., July 7.-AsHosiate
Justice Samuel Blatchford passed
quietly and peacefully from the earth at
1920 this evening. He retained con-
sciousnesss until an hour or two before
hie death. There was no sudden change
In his condition, simply gradual slip
ping away which had been taking place
for the last week. Arrangements for
the funeral have not yet bsen COM
pleted, but the body will probably be
taken to Washington for interment. For
many seasons he has been quiet visitor
to the city during the summer season,
and while not greatly given to society
following, he was frequently entertained
in the first families.
Samuel Blatchford was born in New
York city March 8, 1920. His father
was Richard Milford Blatchford, q noted

later he became private secretary to Gov.
William III. Seward, and he was mill
tary secretary on the governors staff
till 1S43. In 1912 he was admitted to the

of the supreme court of New York
state. During the latter part of the
same year he settled in Auburn, and
became associated with w. I'll. Seward

his profession. He was appointed, in
May, 1867, district judge of the United
States court for the southern district OF
New York, and in March, 1882, became
an associate justice of the supreme court
of the United States by appointment by
President Arthur. His fatal illness dates
back several months, when he was first
subject TO paralytic shocks.
