A New Scheme.

An Augusta man, who has a medium
sized head, and fairly well developed
body, is applying his thinking machine in
the direction of an invention which promises
to be the marvel Of the age. He surely pos
sesses the Yankee genius to achieve great
ness, and should this wonderful scheme
successfully mature, he would have for
tune dropped at his back door. His
idea is to invent hay drier. How the
farmer would rejoice. He proposes to have
steam engine erected in the field and large
cylinders connected with it. In these
cylinders to have hot air.
The green hay will be passed through a
machine where this hot air will be forced
through it. 1t will continue on the move
by means of a carrier, built like wide
belt, and pass to an apparatus where large
fans will be driven by steam power. When
the hay passes through this machine it will
be ready for storage.
With this great discovery which will be
the outcome of his fertile ~ brain, no de-
pendence will be put on the great body in
the heavens, so much larger than the earth.
He also proposes to have self-raking now
ing machine. Perhaps a little later more
complete write-up of the scheme will be at
tempted.

BODY OF JAMES cowEs.
Not Sent Away and VIII lie Buried In
Honolulu.

Honolulu.
BY some mistake it was reported that
the body of James Cowes, son of the
steward of the Mariposa, who died in
this city of pneumonia four weeks ago
had been returned to California for inter-
ment. Such is not the case and further
more the body will be buried here next
Sunday afternoon. The matter is ex-
planned in this way:
James Cowes and his father, the
steward, were both protestants. The
young mans stepmother, the present
Mrs. Cowes who resides at the family
residence on Alakea street, is Catholic.
A few days before the young man died
his stepmother, who regarded him with
the affection due to a real son, persua-
ded him to accept the Catholic faith.
A priest was called in and the ceremony
performed in the sick chamber.
Mr.. Cowes knew nothing of this until
his arrival here from Sydney Thursday
morning. In the meantime the body of
the young man had been embalmed to
await the pleasure of the father. While
the Mariposa was in port Mrs. Cowes
entered the plea that interment take
place here and in the Catholic cemetery.
Under the circumstances the father con-
scented.
Therefore the funeral will take place
from the Catholic church at 3 o'clock
Sunday afternoon and interment will
follow at the Catholic cemetery on King
street.
