An old French shoemaker who boosted
that nothing could brighten him was put
to the test by two young men. One of
them pretended to bo dead, and the other,
going to the shoemaker, induced him to
sit up with the supposed corpse. The
shoemaker was in n hurry with some
work he had promised to have completed
the next morning, 50 he took his tools and
leather and began working beside the
corpse. About l2 O'Clock at night n cup
of black coffee was brought him to keep
him awake. He drank it and resumed
his work. About l O'Clock, the coffee hav-
ing eXhilarated him, and forgetting that
he was in the presence Of death, he com
mcnced singing lively tune, keeping
time with his hammer. Suddenly the
corpse arose and exclaimed in hollow
voice, "When man Is in the presence of
death, be should not sing" The shoe
maker started, then suddenly dealt the
corpse blow on the head with his ham
mer, saying, "When mans corpse, he
should never speak. Washington Post.

MAILS AND LITERATURE.

A very neat turn was given to
one of his references by Rev. DR..
Hutchins at the Central Union
Sunday evening. He mentioned
some man who became famous by
working out an idea that came to
him while standing in line at a
postoffice. The pulpit speaker re-
marked that people in Hawaii had
ample opportunity to runinate
while waiting for mail. This Of
course was not dig at the local
service, but merely thought of the
marvellous irregularity with which
the residents of the islands receive
news from the outside world. This
is really trying at first, but in time
the situation of two or three weeks
ahead without a letter in prospect
comes to be accepted with unruffled
grace.
The sermon was on the subject
of "Pernicious Literature. In the
course of his address Rev. Robt. G.
Hutchins gave to those present
some very valuable advice on read
ing. He pointed out clearly and
forcefully the evil effects of many
publications and the high worth of
good reading. As the speaker said,
there is not the danger in Hawaii
from pernicious prints that is so
apparent in some other coun-
tries.

THE LATEST NEWS.

Telegraphic advices of Feb. 18th
were brought by sailing vessels
Sunday. The news budget is for
the most part tame and wholly UNI
satisfactory.
The Prince of Liars, who has
probably even more than a dual ex-
istance, has been at it again. The
offense now in evidence can scarcely
be overlooked by the Government,
as were the former ISLANDERS. This
time the liar tells the San Francisco
Gail that Davies, Captain Of the
Waimapalo, was tortured. 1t
is written to the coast paper
that the tool of the rebels was
strung up by the thumbs.
The purpose, as set out, was to
eXtort a confession. Davies, who,
by the way is a through wEelp,
was among the swiftest of the wit
nesses for the State. Without ask
ing a promise of consideration he
volunteered to tell everything he
knew. He lost no time at all in
Offering a confession. The Call has
an editorial on the subject. 1t is a
heavy, serious article. That is, ii
is intended to be serious. In this
place 1t only causes mirth. The
CaHsuggests that the United States
call Hawaii to an accounting
for ill-treatment of Ameri-
cans. In the first place,
Hawaii is not ''ill-treating" Ameri.
cans or persons of any other nation
atty. In the second place, Hawaii
has the edge" on the United States

HAMAKUA, Jan. 10, 1895.
WEI &. IRWIN a. Co., LTD, HONOLULU:
GENTLEMEN--The mill has been running dur.
ing the past two weeks with the National
Cane Shredder lately installed, giving the
most satisfactory results.
Our mill consists OF three sets of two roll
lers, - in. dia. by Y in. long, the shredder
discs being TT. in. long, driven by an
automatic engine IL in. dia. cylinder by IA
in stroke
The Rattoon cane being milled Is as hard
as 1t is possible for cane to be, having been
subjected to Il severe drought during the
whole period OF its growth, and growing on
land with a trade wind exposure. Our ex-
perience with the Shredder, particularly with
above cane, proves it to be Just what our
mills required, the shredded cane being better
prepared to have its juice extracted than for
merly after passing through the first mill
The first mill is now allowed to open 9-16 in.
instead of g in. as formerly, SO that the trash
now leaves the first mill, better ground, than
it formerly did the second, and this without
the old timed groaning, choking, and strain
ing of the machinery
Behind the first and second mills we apply
hot water, the quantity for the past " days,
as per statement attached, has averaged 50
per cent. on the total juice from the cane.
The trash from the last mill is cut up much
finer than before the Shredder was applied
mi oh of it resembling saw dust, it contains
as per statement 30 per cent. of moisture and
makes good fuel, the juice from the last mill
stands degrees BrX., SO that the moisture
i'll the trash Is of per cent. sugar solution
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
pensed with six men, formerly necessary to
distribute the cane on the carrier feed the
first mill, and throw back the long pieces.
The Shredder Machinery is a good SUBJ
stantial jon, and should cause little or no
trouble, as it is subjected to but light strains.
You will see that by applying the Shred
der, our work in all departments has been
very materially improved-obtaining a
better extraction at less expense than former
ly. The great improvement in our steam,
causes much satisfaction to those engaged i'm

A. MOORE.
