Mr.. Emmeluth writes an open
letter to the Star, inviting the
Editor of the ADVERTISER to walk
down Fort street, and look at an
unsightly building on the premises
of the Union Ice Company; then,
to examine the law of permits, and
then, ask for a new Superintendent
of Public Works. He also asks the
editor to "rehect on "the per-
sonal sacrifices that have been
made by the men who have had to
engineer the new order of things
into existence" and also 10 Gre

and an old building in the city,

connection in the new students

KING TAwHIAo Of the Maori race
in New Zealand, died in New Zea-
land on August 26th. He was OF
the very noblest blood of that race
and kept his nominal kingship
until the day of his death. He
made great efforts to maintain the
autonomy of the Maori race, and
claimed Jurisdiction over all OF
New Zealand. He was not a man
of ability, but owing to his rank
he was held in great veneratlon by
the natives.

IF the native Hawaiians ever
read history or cared to find out
what white men do, when they are
not smissionaries" but only COM
mercial adventures, they would
get some valuable information in
the history, of the Maori race,
which, instead of being Graded"
and nursed by the whites as the
native Hawaiians have been, were
simply shot down, or robbed, or
driven out by the British colonists-

If the wet season has begun
and will continue until about
the time it usually ends the
result will be marvelously
beneficial to the sugar plant
ers. Last year in Hamakua
there was but six inches Of
rain in six months; this year it
starts in a little better. The
ground has been dampened
and the prospects a few days
ago were favorable. II there
is one section of the country
that needs rain Hamakua is
the one. There are some fine
plantations in the district and
in the days when the condit-
| ions were favorable and the
rainfall all that could be de-
sired they paid their owners
handsomely. Nowadays the
rain comes from the North
east, saIutes the landsman
and then goes on to Hilo.
Forests are known to at
tract the rain clouds and
Hamakua was once blessed
with an abundance Of trees.
A few years ago the people
began cutting down the limb
er and before they were stoE-
ped there was scarcely enough
left to supply lumber for a
cabin. The suffering through
this falls not alone upon the
plantation: the residents in
the villages must go with a
short supply for toilet pur-
poses and their clothing has
to be sent to Honolulu to be
laundried. We remember
that less than a year ago the
fortunate owner of a we'll was
dispensing the water at five
cents a gallon.
Honokaa is q nice little
place and the residents are
progressive enough to be
up with the times; they want
water but they have not yet
hit upon a plan for getting it.
We have canvassed the situa-
ton quite thoroughly and
know that the water from the
spring at the gulch near the
landing can be forced to the
village by simply using a ser.
les of AermOtOrs. These would
not only pump as great a sup
ply as d steam engine but it
would do it at a very little
cost either for the plant in the
beginning or in maintaining it
afterward. The Aermotor con-
sumes no fuel, just a little free
air and the water flows like
water. The Is foot AermOtor,
either pumping or geared is in
use in several public and pri-
vate institutions, as we'll as on
plantations and it has always
given satisfaction. The only
power used by the Water
Works Co., of Waimea, Kauai,
is a 16 foot Aermotor. The
promoters of the scheme
have no trouble in collecting
their water rates because they
give the consumers an abund-
ance of water. There are
plenty of villages on the ISL
ands that could be supplied in
the same way and as long as
the we'll or stream lasted there
would be no danger OF RUM
ing short. We don't get the
statements we make regard
ing the wonderful possibilities
of the Aermotor from our i'm
agination; we have demonstra-
ted in many different places
that the galvanized Steel
Aermotor will do all that is
advertised for it and more
than can be done by any
wooden mill of larger diamet-
er. The Steel AermotOr has
other advantages over wood
en- mills; being lighter it will
run in less wind; being con-
structed of galvanized steel it
will not rot away and cause
the bolts to drOn ont. The

Another and more curious example OF
Observation-Disclosures is given in the
same volumes. The hero in this case
was Ampere, the electrician and
mathematician. He was holding a
formal reception, and appeared in his
drawing room in his Academician S
dress, coat, waistcoat, hat, sword,
and all complete, except only the in
expressibles. OF the same Ampere
it is told that he once wrote to his
son. Jean Jacques, the critic and his
torian. who was in Rome, letter 50
touching and miserable, that the
young man fastened home, convinced
that his father was seriously indi>-
posed. Next morning at breakfast
the father was uaciturn and thought
full. At last he said, "Do you know,
Jean Jacques, it is very strange, but
really thought that ! should be
pleased to see you again? | am not.
Do you think of returning to Rome
to-day?" And this was when the
journey between Paris and Rome
meant at least fortnight's hard
travelling.

parson among them who wanted to
see things done "on the square.
One evening as it was getting dark
I was standing in front of my cabin,
which was quarter of a mile from
the miners huts. Sudd"n My man
whom [ did not know, but who might
have seen me before, came running
toward me. He was almost dead
from fatigue and terror. The per-
spiration dripped from his face and
hands. though it was a cool evening
His laws were so parched that he
could s.arcely articulate word. He
fell on his knees before me hoarSely
: WHISPERING: Innocent, innocent"
while he glanced back over his shout

most bursting from their sockets.
In moment | grasped the situation,
and without a word hurried him into
my cabin and concealed him.
Five minutes later party of angry
miners. one of whom carried a moose
in his hand, drew up before my door.
I met them with cool. inquiring
look. "Parson, were after d hor: e
thies. Have YOU seen a stranger
about here?"
| looked the leader straight in the

without question. Yes, ten min

They wheeled about and were gone.
| They searched the bank until dark,
and then concluded that he had

About 10 O'Clock the man whose
life my falsehood had saved struck
over the hills and doubtless reached
one of the neighboring camps.

just after one of the big battles

were brought to Harrisburg. Harris
burg at the time had many hospitals
in churches, schools and factories.
and they were crowded so much that
the patriotic citizens volunteered tC
take the wounded to their homes and
care for them. Among those who
did this was William d. Martin, OF
314 North Third street. He had a
son in the army, and naturally his
heart went out to the sick and
wounded comrades.
There was taken to his house a
young soldier who was suffering from
four bullet wounds and hurt SO badly
that it was hardly expected he would
recover, chronicles tie Harrisburg

way made the young soldier as com

there was no improvement. and DR..
Rutherford expressed the opinion that
the lad would lie.
But Mr.. and Mrs. Martin would not
have it that way. They determined
TO save his life, and after long weeks
of suffering the soldier boy, under
their careful nursing, began to i'm
prove. He became strong and well,
and one day there came a time for
him to again shoulder his gun and go
to the front. AS he babe Mr.. and

The Truth and Mountain Lion Pretty
Badly Stretched.
A Colorado man has tanned a noun
tain lion, writes Denver liar. 1t is
the toughest of beasts-so tough a
butcher could not cut its shadow with
Ratchet. Dave Snyder, Jr., of 63l
Champa street, Denver, shot one of
these yellow terrors in Grand Can
yon, but the lion failed to die, and
bit Snyder through the arm. Then
it was captured by the dogs. To be
revenged, Snyder fastened the ami
NAL between two tall pines, standing
seventy feet from each other. 1t
took a double team of mules and six
drivers, with two gallons of Utah
whisky. half day to bring those
trees together. The plan was to cut
the rope and let them fly apart, Gre
clan style. The great crowds of first
citizens expected to see menageries
and fiddle str ngs drop for an hour.

the rope was cut. The tall trees
flew back with the swish and roar Of
a cyclone. But the lion didn't drop.
1t stretched. High up in dizzy mid
air the people saw something like a
huge yellow sausage with hair on it,
seventy feet long. Two big eyes and
a row of teeth cleaned at one end
and a bushy tail Wagged at the other.
The lions roar also stretched as thin
as razor and cut the ear like the
scream of a buZZ-saw. The brute's
fur, however, didn't stretch, SO there
was but single hair to each square
inch Of mountain lion. The pluck
of the beast took the Poop G by storm.
They ordered it's life spared. Accord
ingly the trees were felled and the
lion released. When taken down to
earth, its anatomy shut up like a

in diameter (half an hour before din
