Report on rrof Koebrle's Tug Campaign
II 10 Date.
Prof. Rochelle, commandcr-n-chicf of
the California aud Hawaiian division Of
the grand army OF the Australian lady
bug, has returned from Maui aud Ha-
waii. lie was absent three weeks and
besides travelling by steamer and wagon,
covered 100 miles on horseback. The
Professor made careful obser-
vations in north and south
kona, paying particular attention
to the coffee plants and orange trees
and inspecting forest growths. He
brought back five species of scale, and
has already determined the enemy to
he set upon the blight pest. Professor
Rochelle will make a trip to Kauai, and
then about March 10Th leave for Aus
tralia. While he goes for new soldiers
the details of fighters brought here
from the Coast will be breeding. aud
soon the skirmishers will be distributed
in fair sized squads.
The chief enemy OF the coffee berry is
the mealy bug, which was found in fields
from the coast to an elevation Of 1000
feet. This blight saps the life from the
growing coffee grain. Instead of saw
age, voracious ladybug there will be dis
patched after the mealy bug minute
winged insect OF the wasp family. II com,
from California, is harmless to vegeta-
ton and is short lived. The mite of
wasp, scarce larger than the head of
fine cabrlc needle, lights upon the almost
inanimate glutton that fairly devours
green coffee. The wasp stings the mealy
bug and the female lays her eggs upon
it. From the moment OF contact the
mealy bug is done for, and in few
hours it is nothing.
Professor Rochelle has visited many
coffee districts, but says that Kona is the
most wonderful OF them all. So far, he
is most favorably impressed with the
Islands. and moreover is confident that
his mission will be a success.

FORMATION OF HAIL.
The Agency of Electricity In Making the
Icy Pellets.

The Agency of Electricity In Making tho
Icy Pellets.
The formation of hail through cleo
trical action, according to the new the
DRY of Sig. Marangoni is a very inter-
esting, and even wonderful. process.
The wind draws out cloud into long,
narrow strip. In that form, owing to
the great amount of surface exposed to
the air, the cloud evaporates very rap
idly, and rapid evaporation produces
intense cold.
Dry PARTICLES of snow are then
formed, and these, by friction with the
water drops, quickly become charged
with negative electricity. But the
water-drops themselves carry positive
electricity, and since negative attracts
positive, film of water is formed upon
each snow particle and is instantly
frozen into layer of ice.
AT this thickness its outer surface re-
mains moist, the water not freezing SO
rapidly there, whereupon the electrical
charge changes from negative to POSI-
tive, and the particle is repealed by the
water-drops and driven to the outer
parts of the cloud. Here the increased
cold covers it with snow again, and
friction charges 1t anew with negative
electricity.
Repulsion Is now once more changed
for attraction, and tho particle rushes
back into the cloud, receiving upon it's
surface another film Of water, which is
turned into second ice layer.
Thus, the growing hailstone darts
zigzag through the cloud, piling ap its
alternate layers of snow and ice, until
gravitation gains control and sends it,
with juggling crowd of its fellows,
spinning to the ground. 4

Not a Pleasant People.

An almost unknown race-or one
rarely visited by Europeans-is de-
scribed by Mr. G. s. Robertson. These
people live in the sub-Himalayan region
and are called Kafristans. In many
respects they are not pleasant people.
Their worst mental peculiarities are Gu
pidity, jealousy, and intertribal hatred.
On the other hand they have a strong
family affection and are capable Of acts
of heroism when at war. For killing
one of their fellow tribesmen Danish
ment is the penalty. They have their
cities of refuge. They have medicine
men. Mr.. Robertson intimates that
there is secret valley in Kafiristan
where an unknown tongue is spoken
the sound Of which Is like "a soft
musical mewing."

LIFE OF A TRAINED NURSE.
Many Duties Fall to the Lo: If the Self
Sacrificing Women.

The number of books, with their big,
unpronounceable names which nurses
In training have to study brighten
away all rattlebrained applicants,
leaving only the studious, determined
and reliable, says Donahoe's Magazine.
Heroines they are, every one of them
who finishes the course, as anyone
must see who has lived among them
and watched them through each busy
day, dressing wounds, bandaging and
making bandages and rollers and lin
ings of splints, cooking and serving
delicacies, dressing the newly born
and preparing the dead for burial and
making the rounds with physicians
and surgeons, from whom they receive
their practical training. In addition
to these few duties mentioned out Of
the thousand and one that will suggest
themselves, they must attend lectures,
Rotations and demonstrations, and
prepare for their own examinations,
which in some schools occur each
month, but generally every three
months. Even from this brief show
ing, it will be seen the life of n trained
nurse is a ceaselessly busy one, helpful
and truly noble, but in no way n sine
cure, No one but the fairly educated
and cultivated should enter the pro-
fession, since nurses should have these
qualifications quite as much as tho
mechanical skill in order to render
them agreeable to the class of people
who commonly employ nurses. And
none but the patient and self-sacri-
ticing need enter the profession ex-
pecting to rise to the rank of a
Florence Nightingale; at least, that is
the conclusion of one who has lived
with them, studied their life and
profted by their training.

A train was recently stopped in
France, on the line between Bellegarde
and Geneva, under the following curl
Gus circumstances: a freight train had
in one of its cars some cod liver oil,
which began to leak away from the
containing vessel. By chance, the es-
Gaping stream struck exactly in the
middle of the rail The train that bore
the oil was not affected, but the track
was thus well creased for the passen-
ger train that followed, which came to
q standstill when it reached the oily
rails. Nearly three-quarters Of an hour
were consumed in running the two
and half miles to the next station,
and this rate was only attained by dill
gent sanding of the track.

The Death of Hannibal.

Hannibal was made an exile, not as
commonly supported, through Roman
influence so much as from the personal
animosity of his countrymen. After the
defeat at Emma he turned his atten-
ton to the political affairs Of Carthage,
and inaugurated system of reform
which he carried out so vigorously that
he soon found himself intensely hated
by large faction of the Carthaginians.
Behind him was the honesty of tho
country, however, and, finding he could
not be swerved from his purpose, the
rogues in Office attempted TO assassin
ate him. Finding that his death had
been determined on Hannibal left Car
thage, went to Tyre, and thence to the
dominions Of Antiochus, whom he soon
enlisted in war with Rome. The war
proved failure, and Antiochus was
ordered to surrender Hannibal, who
got news Of the demand and made his
escape. Roman hatred followed him to
Bithynia, and, finding himself on the
point Of being given up, he died from
poison. The story that he once had
meeting at Ephesus with his old enc
my, Scipio Africanus, is told on fairly
good authority.
