of the building are 70x104 feet.
The height from the ground to the
top of the observatory will be about

The design adopted for the new
Oahu College building, a cut OF
which is presented to the reader,
will commend Itself to every per-
son who can apprsciate the happy
combination OF beauty sssfs. tStihty
which is found in both the ex-
terror and interior of this building.
The adaptation of Moorish details
with the solidity of lava rock con-
struction, the broad, overhanging
cornices protecting the walls from
the tropical sun, the hint of an
| oriental court without carrying it
out in full, the astronomical OBJ
! servatory, combined with tower
well adapted to the style OF
architecture of which it forms a
part, is presented by the design OF
this building.
But however pleasing might be
the exterior of any building, if its
interior arrangements were not
adapted to it's requirements the
building must be failure. In
this instance, however, the internal
arrangements can but prove to be
nearly perfect, every room we'll
lighted and ventilated, no long,
dark corridors, every room easy of
access from central well-lighted
halls.
There are two principal entrances
to the building, one from the end
fronting on to the main entrance
to the grounds, and another from
the court which fronts on the col
lege campus from the main central
hall, which is thoroughly lighted
from a number Of windows. Ac-
cess may be had to every room on
the first floor without passing into
any corridor or lobby. There are
five class rooms on the first floor,
ranging in size from 2Ox28 to
2Sx30 feet. On the first floor will
be the Presidents office, the girls
cloak and retiring rooms; also, the
boys hat rooms, and access to the
boys lavatories, which are in the
basement.
From the center of the hall the
stairs start for the second floor,
but at an intermediate landing
they extend in different directions,
ending at the two entrances to the
assembly hall, and also directly
in front of the entrances to the
library, museum and class rooms.
At the intermediate landing of the
stairs, a second flight starting from
the open court outside the build
ing joins the main stairs, thus
giving access to and from the
assembly hall without going into
the first story of the building.
The assembly hall is 46 60 feet,

RECKLESS WASTE OF LFk

Few Of the Latest Discoveries Of Hy-
Rienio Schemes Are Yet Utilized.
An interesting and to a certain ex-
tent instructive statement has just ap-
peared showing what reckless waste
of life is going on among us all tho
time, says Demorest's Magazine. Tho
number of deaths from causes prevent
able by means now well known to
science is shown to constitute almost
the entire death list of one of the
leading cities of the country, where,
only twenty-five deaths recorded from
old age. Seventeen of these deaths oe-
cured from typhoid fever, disease
which should never exist in q civilized
country. In the French and German
armies, where q modern system of
trestment prevails, only one typhoid
patient In fifty dies.
Pulmonary diseases carry off 24e per
sons on this list, and yet it is asserted
that even in cases where children in
herit tendency to consumption there
IS no need for it to develop If proper
precautions are taken In time regard
ing exercise. breathing and habits.
Stomach troubles claim 155 more VIC
Tins, and are attributable entirely to
carelessness in eating and drinling-a
proper regulation Of diet, as it is
claimed, being all that would be neces-
sary to prevent every one of them.
This reduces the death rate from lit
tie over 10 to about per cent, and.
with the natural addition to the length
of those lives reported to have been
lost through old age, would probably
bring up the average sum OF human
years to ITS or even higher.
The fact is that few of the latest dis
coyeries of science are utilized to ben
eft humanity. People seldom call
upon the doctors until their condition
has become chronic, and then. TO save
expense, they rarely undergo thorough
treatment. Then, again, we go on eat
ing and drinking what we know is the
last thing we should think OF putting
into our stonachs, il utter disregard
of the laws of diet. We habituallv drink
water that is often as certain a poison
as strychpine or alcohol; we live under
sanitary conditions which render per-
feet health an impossibility, and. last
ly. we load our lives with burdens
which, while assisting il no way to
our betterment, sap the very roots of
our existence and make life 4 melan-
choly pilgrimage Who shall rear a
temple TO the goddess Hygea and make
Methuselshs as common as roses in

AN EQUITABLE ARRANGEMENT

he Bore An Envied Name. While She Pos
sessed Coveted Riches.
The lady was a widow and rich
very rich-as the French novelist says,
richissime. The gentleman was a
widower, past sixty; extremely, even
ridiculously, poor, and the last of a
most noble and most historical house.
History is full of the achievements Of
his people. Froissart mentions their
exploits in every other page; they were
always taking this side or the other,
for the king and against the king: when
they took a side they meant it; out
they marched. they and theirs, in fuD
armor.
Whichever side they took, it always
ended in their being captured and de-
capitated for high treason, Or else
killed in battle. From father to son,
from generation to generation, for
long centuries none of them ever went
out Of the world from an inglorious
Feather bed; it was always from the
grassy field of honor or from a scafold.
A gray beard was unknown in that
house; nor had any Of them ever ex-
perienced the tender emotions of
grandfather.
The lady, besides being widow and
richissime, was of ignoble origin, and
her late husband had made his money
made her unhappy. She was SO rich
that she thought she ought also to be
noble, just to correspond. 1t is COM
mon confusion of thought. She de-
sired, above all things, to connect her
riches with an ancient name, and she
heard of this old nobleman, and she
made a proposition to him. Marry
me-" she said. Give me that right to
use your name. In return 1 will give
you as handsome an annuity as you
can possibly desire. You shall have
the means Of living as you please, and
OF obtaining all that.you can desire. 1
will not ask you to live in my house.
You shall live where you please. /
viii only ask that, for appearance
sake, you viii take your place at my
dinners, and that you will show up. as
the lord of the house, at my recep-
tons"
was arranged IN THIS sense. The
lady took and furnished for herself
great hotel, writes Walter Besant in
London Queen. She had the rooms
decorated in honor of this and that IL
lustrious ancestor. The arms of the
house were everywhere; the portraits,
busts and statues of the house were
in all the rooms; the pictures repre-
sented scenes and episodes in the his
tory of the house. The servants wore
the ancient livery, the well-known liv-
cry of the house.
The hotel became the museum of the
house, and at dinners and on reception
nights the duke himself was always
present, grave, dignifed and stately,
with the look Of one who had stepped
out of a picture frame five hundred
years old, and had put on the clothes
OF the nineteeth century, but not its
manners. When madame, the duchess,
was not at home he lived in his own
at the club, after his own
fashion. An excellent bargain, was il
not, and one that seems perfectly fair
to both parties.

Coney Island no longer pays heavy tribute to boss, and has been made respectable. McKane's best man, Justice Summerield, has surren- dered to Broolxlyn's sheriff, and is like wise in prison.

or Importance to Young Voters.

The fol lowing decision, of great in- terest to young voters, has been made by Attorney-General Clarke, at the re- quest of Col. II. l.. Fletcher:
 In answer to your inquiry as to whether or not persons who have attained the age of 2i years since the last tax paying closed will be required to exhibit a tax receipt condition precedent to the right to vote at ensuing elec- tions. will say that the provisions of amend ment No. covers the case suggested by your inquiry. It is fol- lows: Provided. that persons who make satisfactory proof that they have attained the age Of 2l years since the time of assessing taxes next preceding said election and possess the other necessary qualifications. shall be per mitted to vote' The time for assessing taxes next before the September election in 1894 closed on the second Monday in September, 1893. when the assessor filed his list with the county clerk. and all persons coming of age since that time entitled to vote without having paid poll-tax.

RUSSIA has one policy which would recommend it to American labor re- formers. No employer can reduce wages or discharge his men without notifying the government, which tries to find places for discharged help. This is state aid for the unemployed: and still Russia is not Elysium.
