As pumping is one of the
most common uses to which
wind motors are put, the
method OF communicating
motion to the pump is very
important and has received
our closest attention, and the
defect created in most wind
mills of racking themselves to
pieces in a severe wind has
been obviated in the Aermotor
by means of back gearing, so
that the wheel makes about
three turns to one stroke of
the pump or enough so that
the wheel may run at its natural
speed, unrestrained in any
moderate wind, without doing
violence to the pump or its
connections. This enables US
to give the pump long stroke
instead ofthe quick, jerky, short
strokes of ordinary wind mills.
This means that the valves are
not worked SO harshly in open
ing and closing and that the
wear and tear is greatly dimin-
ished, while the piston rod
speed is increased. and conse-
quently the pumping capacity
is increased. The back gear
ing, together with the extra
holes for crank pins in the
crank wheel also makes it pos
sible to use with the Aermotor
any ordinary size of pump
cylinder If a wind motor is
not sensitive to the direction of
the wind much of its efficiency
IS lost.
The ease with which a wind
mill faces up to the wind de-
Ponds on weight of the mill,

bearings on which it pivots and

zen two and one-half times as

that this other wheel 4
must have five times the tail

HAWAIIAN CHARACTERISTICS IL
THE SCHOOL ROOM.

At the Indian Teachers COnven
ton i'm Sioux City last July, Pro
fessOr Riggs read an essay on the
question, what does a child
bring to the schOOl-rOOm intellect
ually" The essay is an original
and interesting discussion of the
question and is published in full
in the October number of the
Southern Workman, printed al
the Hampton Institute, with
which Gen. =. 6. Armstrong was
so long connected. There are
many points in the paper which
the teachers in schools for Hawai-
ians would do we'll to read. Here
are some characteristic noted by
the essayist.
An Indian child looks upon the
world as a place for him to raid,
and he is abnOrmally destructive.
He pulls things to pieces to graft
fy inherited tastes for destroying
things. He never analyses with
a purpose to find out the why and
how things are put together. Nor
does he seem to notice resemblan-
ces or differences in his destruc-
ton. AS the Indian is imprOvi-
dent, so the child notices no
usefulness which is not immediate.
Mere facts, however interesting
in themselves, secure little atten
tion from Indian pupils. The re-
latiOnships of things have fasci-
nation for him, which the eSsayist
considers as akin to the Indian
passion for tracing out and memo
rizing family relationships of the
members of the tribe. But the
relationship of cause and effect is |
one that eXcites very little curiOs
ity.
If any thing or action is beyond
immediate comprehension. it is
classified as something mysterious
and no further attention given.
He cares nothing about the life or
products of other people. His
mental attitude is that of utter in
difference to white folks belong
ings; he is satisfied with Indian
ways and possessions. But he has
a most remarkable perception of
locality and direction, and quickly
individualizes prominent points
around his point of view. Strange
animals interest an Indian child
more than plants or minerals.
The habit of eating. or stuffing ut
one time. not at regular intervals
makes a full stomach absorb for
the time being all brain activity. .
Abstract conceptions. fundamen- +
tai principles are outside the :
range of his mental processes.
English primers bring very
little vividness To an Indians
mind. Oracle chases Zip about
the orchard" Zip-name of dog? |
Dogs are to eat. like chickens:

son of judgments. comes late in an !
Indians mental development. if it
comes at all. Teachers are in too
much of a hurry to get out of sim
pie mathematical judgments, and
too early processes of
mathematical reasoning.
Prof. Riggs accounts for the
ack of responsibility in an In
1ian's mental makeup. from the
absence of the idea of property,
possessed and pre-
served. In the wastefulness char :
lcteristic of the uncivilized races. C

II hate to see a man 60 to his death with
lie upon his lips. but that is what Conner
is doing. The facts of my struggle with
him are these: Thinking Common was GO
ing to hide the money which he was &C
cused of stealing, ] followed him behind
the bar, and he turned and struck me with
a revolver. We then ciinched. and / got
the gun away from him with the aid of the
other man whom he afterwards cut. and
Mcnamara, the saloon keeper. came and
got the gun from me. Then l thought /
had my man, and took him by the lapels
of the coat, but Conner reached across and
cut me on the wrist. He did not use a
pocketknife, as he says, but must have
reached around the bar and taken the
lemon knife. for that Is the kind OF knife
ne cut me with. then shouted 10 McNa-
mara, He's cut me- and at the same time
Conner broke aud started TO go out the
back door, which was shut. Then l shot
at him and missed. then ran UP on him
and he cut me over the eye and across the
nose. Then we clinched and hit him on
the head with my gun. and Conner cut me
in the thigh. i soon had him down, but he
cut me again IN the abdomen and n the
breast l drew back, blinded by the blood
from my wounds. and Conner ran out to-
wards the front door. But as he did so L
fired the shot which hit him in the back.
''Connor' denial that he had been arrest
ed before Is false. for he was convicted or
robbing a lodging house, got new trial
and was acquitted. Under Chiet Jackson
instrumentation he was wanted for holding
up a man on Willow street

Connor makes are his admission that he
cut me and the other man. and mat McNa-

sam Corbett Attracted by HiclSman's
Visions of W ealth.

Detective Sam Corbett has received let
ter from Z. Il. Hickman, who went to
Central America on the Transit's first trip,
September q. The letter is dated Guate-
Inaia City, October 81, and contains an III
teresting account OF Hickmans expert
ences and plans. He represents that Amer
leans are In great demand. There is
money in lumber here" he says, but the
necessary equipment is expensive. There
is a fortune in the saloon business, all
drinks selling for . cents, except beer.
which is 62la cents a pint. Cigars also go
at - cents. All barber shops charge 20
cents for each piece Of work, except. per-
haps, a few rough shops"
Mr.. Corbett has about decided 10 go down
and try the lumber business, but he does
not expect. as has been stated, 70 go on
the next trip OF the Transit. He has yet
some correspondence TO carry on with Mr..
Hickman for necessary information. Il
gathered great deal OF useful knowledge
about Guatemala from the men on the
Philadelphia" he said yesterday. Among
other things they told me Of the progress
sive policy OF the present government, and
Of the marvellous growth of the city OF
New Guatemala under that policy. For
eign labor is now encouraged. and Ameri-
cans are not only free, but welcome L
