"LloHTs OF THE HAREM."
They Rap Two American Tourists Over the
Head with Pokers.


While the two Americans, Messrs. Allen
and Sachtleben, who made bicycle tour
around the world, were in Aradan, Persia,
O present from the village khan was an
nounced. In stepped two men bearing a
huge tray filled with melons, apricots, sug-
ar, rock candy, nuts, pistachios, etc, all
of which we must of course turn over to
the khan keeper and his servants, and pay
double their value to the bearers as pres
ent.
This polite method of extortion was fol-
lowed the next morning by one Of bolder
and more peremptory nature. Notwith-
standing the feast of the night before at
our expense, and in addition to furnishing
us with bcdclothes which we really ought
to have been paid to sleep in, our oily host
now insisted upon three or four prices for
his lodgings. We refused to pay him more
than certain sum and started to vacato
the premises. Thereupon he and his grown
son caught hold of our bicycles. Remon-
stranccs proving of. no avail, and being
unable to force our passage through the
narrow doorway with tho bicycles in ouI
hands, we dropped them and grappled
with our antagonists. A noisy scuf1e, and
then q heavy fall ensued, but luckily We
were both on the upper side.
This unusual disturbance now brought
out the inmates of the adjoining anderoon.
In n moment there was din of femi.
nino screams and a flutter of garments,
and thcn-a crashing of our pith helmets
beneath the blows of poiers and andirons.
The villagers thus aroused came at last
to our rescue, and Mt once proceeded tC
patch up compromise. This, in view al
the amazonian re-cnforccmcnts, who were
standing by in readiness for second onset,
we were more than pleased to accept
From this inglorious combat we came of

gentle poker taps were knocked out for.

In report by the board of agriculture on
the distribution of grants for agricultural
education in Great Britain is chapter of
special research in cheddar cheesemaking.
The author, Mr.. +. j. Lloyd, says: ut APP
pears more and more probable that all
taints and peculiaritles which are injurious
to cheese as also all the changes which
combine to produce a good or first rate
cheese, are due to bacteria"
After reading this, consumers of cheese
will long to be told how they may distin-
guish the benevolent from the malevolent
microbe, and how the one may be cult
waited at the expense of the other. Mr..
Lloyd does his best to satisfy their curiosi-
ty, and it is comforting to learn that of the
many organisms which have been found
"only one can be said to be invariably pres
ent" This is the benevolent Acidi lactici,
which is essential to the production of a
good cheese, and there is ground at pres
ent for the assumption that no other varie-
ty is necessary"
But how to keep the others out is the
question. Mr. Lloyd says they do not come
in at the open door or window of the dairy,
but hide in crannes, where a little decom-
posing milk or other animal or vegetable
matter may supply all the food which these
organisms need to enable them to grow and
multiply" The moral of this for cheese
makers obviously is, BE scrupulously clean.

How Fast Does Thought Travel?

Professor Donders Of Utrecht has made
some interesting experiments in regard to
the rapidity Of thought. BY means of two
instruments, which he calls the ''neomata-
Telegraph" and the e''noernatachometer," he
obtained some important results. His ex-
periments show that it takes the brain 067
of second to elaborate single idea. Writ
ing in regard to this, Professor Donders
says: Doubtless the time required for the
brain to act is not the same in all individu-
ais. / believe, however, that my instru-
ments may be perfected until we will be
able to determine the mental caliber of our
friends without our friends knowing that
we are testing their aptness." The profes-
sor further says; For the eye to receive an
impression requires .077 of a second and for
the ear to appreciate sound .0+9 of "A sec
ond is necessary. These curious expert
ments have established one fact at least
viz, that the eye acts with nearly double
the rapidity of the ear. r."-Philadelphia

Pigeon With a Memory.

1t seems really impossible to extinguish
the homing instinct in n good pigeon. A
story is told of French carrier pigeon
which was captured by the German sol.
diers during the siege of Paris in 1870.
The bird was being carried in balloon
from Paris to some point in the country,
whence it was expected to return to Paris
with message 1t was taken to the Ger
man headquarters and presented to the
commander, Prince Frederick Charles
who sent it to his mother in Germany.
Here it was placed in a splendid roomy
aviary and carefully fed and nourished,
but although itwas kept here, living in
the lap of royal luxury for four years. the
French pigeon did not forget its father
land
At the end of that time the aviary was
left open one day. The pigeon flew out,
mounted high in the air, flew about for a
moment as if to find the points of the
campass and started in a straight line for
Paris. Ten days afterward it beat its
wings against the entrance to its old loft
in the Boulevard de Clichy. There it was
recognized, ard its case being brought to
public attention it was honored as pa
triot returned from foreign captivity Ii
remained at the Paris Jardin d'Acclima
ton until 1t died in 1S7S.-Bow Bells.

PAKE IN DANGER.
A Crowd of Japanese We're After His
Scalp.

On Sunday evening a Chinese
hackman managed to have his
vehicle strike Japanese child on
Merchant street, between Fort ard
Alakea. About fifty Japanese came
tumbling out of the little hotel IN
that locality. The cabbie whipped
up and made quick time retreat,
with half a dozen angry japanese
on his trail. The father of the
child was called and raised big
row. A search party was organ
lied, but the Chinaman made good
his escape. The child was not
seriously injured.

A NEW ROUTE.
Around the Horn with the Western
wheat for Europe.

Around the Horn with the Western
wheat for Europe.
An experimental shipment of
Pacific Coast wheat from Portland,
Or, to Liverpool by way of
Panama bids fair to be successful.
Mail advices from Colon to the
shippers say that trans-shipment has
been effected at the isthmus with
out injury. The new route saves
the long voyage around the Horn.
1t was a question whether the
wheat would not be spoiled by the
weather it would encounter cross
ing tha isthmus, but this fear is
now proven groundless, and it is
probable that much Coast whea,
will go by this route in the future.

Game Between the Philadelphia and

Nymph Teams.
The Philadelphia a nd Nymph
cricket clubs met at the new base
ball ground, Waikiki, Monday
afternoon and played a very nice
game. The Phillies made more

Saturday. At the end of the first
inning the score stood S4 to so in
favor of the Nymph's eleven. A
notable feature of the game was
excellent batting.

WIN. q. IRWIN Il Co., LTD, HONOLULU:
GENTLEMEN The mill has been running dur.

Cane Shredder lately installed, giving the
most satisfactory results
Our mill consists of three sets of two roll

discs being It. in. long, driven hy an

The Rattoon cane being milled Is as hard
as il is possible for cane TO he, having been
subjected to IA severe drought during the
whole period of its growth, and growing on
land with trade wind exposure. Our ex-
perience with the Shredder, particularly with
above cane, proves IL To be just what our
mills required, the shredded cane being better
prepared to have its juice extracted than for

now leaves the first mill, better ground, than

! the old timed groaning, choking, and strain
! ing of the machinery.
Behind the first and second mills we apply
I hot water, the quantity for the past ~ days,
us per statement attached, has averaged IS

The trash from the last mill is cut up much

The Boilers make steam much easier than
before, now care has to be taken to keep them
from blowing Off, whereas before great care
was necessary to keep the steam from going
too low when the Pan was on.
BY the use of the Shredder we have dis
ponsed with six men, formerly necessary to
distribute the cane ON the carrier, feed the
iirst mill, and throw hack the long pieces.
