DANGEROUS.

The accident at Kawaiahao Sat
urday night might very easily have
destroyed the church and caused
serious loss of life. If the rope
which broke had had five minutes
worth of life left in it the falling
lamp would very likely have ex-
tinguished Mr.. Berger, along with
itself. While we may be pro-
foundry thankful that things hap
pened as they did, the accident was
yet one which might easily have
been avoided altogether. The sus-
pension of these enormous lamps
by an attenuated rope is of itself
enough to invite disaster. The
pastor had already drawn attention
to the danger, but without results.
It is no wonder that Kawaiahao
Church is not insured. No COM
pany could regard it as a safe risk.
+ The electric lights should be put
in without delay, as the church has
already been collecting funds for
this purpose.

IT is to be hoped that the dis
satisfaction among The Molokai
natives on account of the inspectors
appointed there will be promptly
Investigated, so that the causes of
the complaint, if there be any, may
be removed. 1t would be a great
pity if any loyal Hawaiians should
fail to register and vote for reasons
so trif1ing as those that exist in the
present case.

FAREWELL TO ADMIRAL IRWIN.

The people of these Islands sin
cerely regret the coming departure
of Admiral Irwin.
On his arrival here it was gener
ally believed that he had been es
peeially selected to execute what
was supposed to be a policy Of
force which had been adopted by
the President of the United States
For some days it was thought that
he would, under orders, at any
moment put our lives in peril and
at the mercy of a restored mon
arch. During that period his con-
duct and demeanor was such as to
indicate clearly that while per-
fectly loyal to his own Government
he had no wish to execute his
orders with undue severity.
Since the period of danger has
passed and misunderstanding has
been removed we have come to
regard the Admiral as one more of
those who should be added to the
list of American commanders who
have brought us the assurance of
the friendship of Americans for our
people and the Islands.
We believe that it is the opinion
of every member of the Provisional
Government that he has acted with
much tact and discretion in his
relations with it.
We shall not forget the Presi-
dental salute lately given on the
visit of President Dole to the Phila,
delphia. Whatever it meant, in the
AdmiraPs mind, we construed it to
be an evidence of his goodwill, and
that with the smoke of the saluting
guns rolling off to sea, passed away
forever the only difference which
exists between the great Republic,
whose force he represents, and the
little Republic whose morning star
is just rising above the horizon.
AS the Admiral goes upon the
!" retired list" we hope he will re-
gard it, so far as our wishes are
concerned, as gracious retirement,
and that In the coming years,
whenever he recalls the days when
his warship lay abreast of US, and,
as we believed, with throttled guns,
he will remember that then lay in
his heart the sentiment which took
Commodore Tatnall to the aid of

roots out of the water, and laying them

other minor processes until eventually
it was packed in the earthenware jars

Egyptian Geometry.


The Ahmes papyrus doubtless repre-
sents the most advanced attainments Of
the Egyptians in arithmetic and geom-
etry. It is remarkable that they should
have reached SO great proficiency in
mathematics at so remote a period Of
antiquity. But strange indeed is the
fact that during the next 1000 years
they should have made no progress
whatsoever in it.
All the knowledge Of geometry which
they possessed when Greek scholars Wis
tied them, six centuries B. g., was
doubtless known to them 1000 years
earlier, when they built those stupen-
=dous and gigantic structures, the pyra-
.mlds An explanation for this stagna-
ton OF learning has been sought in the
fact that their early discoveries in math-
ematics and medicine had the misfor-
tune Of being entered upon their sacred
books, and that, in after ages It was
considered hereticM to augment or mod
sify any thing therein. Thus the books
themselves closed the gates to progress.
