An exchange says, and it maybe that
the editor of said paper has tried it,
that let any victim of the liquor habit
eat tomatoes, sprinkled with salt, con-
suming as much each day as possible.
Let the eating of tomatoes and salt to-
excess be continued for several days.
and the tomato eater will find liquor
offensive, undrinkable, or il drank, un-
grateful to the stomach, so much that
it will be thrown up. This is the cheap
est gold cure yet heard of, harmless.
and it is said to be effective.

Japanncd leather, generally called pat.
smooth, glazed finish is first given to calf
skin in France. The leather is curried ex-

care Is taken to keep it as free rs possible

on frames and coated with a composition
of linseed oil and lumber i'm the proportion
of Is gallons of oil to of lumber, boiled
until nearly solid, and then mixed with

the composition is applied in order to give
color and body. From three to four coats
of this are necessary to form "a substance

What Would Happen " the orb of Dap
Suddenly Iircntne Extinct.

| Tho boldost Imagination may we'll stand
| appalled, at the consequences Of "A sudden
extinction Of the sun. For ST minutes
the length Of time that It takes the light
I Of the sun to reach the carth--we should
not know that anything had happened.
Then the darkness would fall upon the
world, neither the moon nor the planets
would give any light, and the fixed stars
would shine like tiny points OF fire out OF
a coal black sky. The moisture Of the at
mosphcre would instantly CONCEAL In
universal dclugc of ice, the small stack of
heat possessed by the earth would rapidly
radiate into space and the temperature
would go on falling till degree of cold
more than 300 degrees below zero would
be reached, and the very gases of the at
mosphcrc would he liqueicd and fall on
the frozen surface of the planet.
Absolutely total darkness there would
not of course be and never could be un.
less all the stars were cXtinguishcd. But
relative darkness would continue for an
enormous period which can only be ap.
proximately calculated. The solar system
is moving through space toward II point in
the constellation of Hercules at n speed OF
100, 600, 900 miles year, or four miles
second. But there are no self luminous
/
times the distance between the earth and
the sun; therefore this gigantic gulf would
have to be crossed before starlight became
sunlight, and this it would take some
| lis, 900 years to do.
Toward the end Of that period, suppos.
ing always that the other star systems had
not moved corrcspondingly, stars i'm Her
culcs would begin to shine rs suns and
the long darkcncd solar system would he
reilluminatcd by rays Of ever increasing
intensity until it fell into its appointed
place rs n portion Of those distant systems.
1t should also be mentioned that the tire
mendous journey might not he performed
without collision with some other burnt
out sun or darkcncd system now invisible,
In which case the shock would rcgcnerate
light and heat and out of the wrecks of the
two systems n new one would be evolved.

A blackburn Story.

A little story of Senator Black burns own
telling is floating around in exclusive cir.
cles. There is to be seen in several plate
glass windows rather fine but high col.
ored chrome, containing race course scene,
with Secretary Carlisle, Proctor Knott and
Senator Blackburn in a club foreground,
the whole affair being an exploitation OF the
product of well known Blue Grass distil
lery.
One day Senator Blackburn was met at
home by his wife and daughters, who with
faces Of suppressed merriment, told him
that a very fine picture which would please
him had just come by express and was in
the hall. He went and looked, and, lol the
chrome A case Of the goods came along
In its company. A chorus OF feminine We
toes went up when he took revenge by say
ing that it was good and he would have 1t
hung up in the library. The next day a
letter came from the distiaer, saying that
Mr.. Carlisle and Proctor Knott had given
| their consent to the use of their portraits,
| and that he had taken the liberty of using
Senator Backburn's without consulting
him, believing that he would not object
The senator made the following reply;
DEAR sIR-You have taken great liberty ia
using my portrait In your chrome without tirsi
| asking my consent, but ! forgive you, since Il
| is the best portrait of me that | have ever seen
| But allow me to call your attention TO a Sc
rious anomaly in the composition Of the worl
| Of art You have put me On Kentucky rac'
horse, with my back to driving finish and IN!
hand on bottle OF the worst whisky that wa
ever distilled. Yours truly.

Tricks of Ancient Gold Workers.

There is n papyrus which gives recipes
for various alloys used In the manufacture
of cups and vases, for making gold and
silver ink for gliding and silvering and
for testing the purity of precious metals.
Other recipes teach the method of falsify
ing them by adding baser metals-an OPP
Grafton called diplosis, OF doubling, for
the mass of the gold and silver was doubled,
while their color remained unchanged
and, as tho compiler Of the manual re-
marks, skilled workman would find it
difficult or even impossible to detect the
fraud. The recipes which recur most fire.
quently describe various modes of prepar
ing Assem-, word which originally meant
n natural alloy Of gold and silver known
to the Greeks as elcctrum. 1t was at first
looked upon as n distinct metal, was con-
sidercd sacred to Jupiter and was dcsignat-
ed by the sign Of that planet, but at a
later period the name was applied to all
alloys, and NJ. Bcrthelot remarks that in
this fact seems to lie the explanation Of tho
origin of alchemy. Both gold and silver
could be extracted from genuine Assem-, and
it seemed as though 1t could be changed at
the will Of the operator into either one or
the other, 1t could also be made artificial
ly by mingling gold and silver, or closely

TUG ELEU On A CRUISE.
WITH FIELDPIECE AND RIFLEMEN
SHE sTEAMs AWAY.
Rather Secret Departure is On Hunt
For Pirates-what of the
Norma?

The tug Eleu left at 3 o'clock
this morning. She had aboard a
detail of Sharpshooters under Lieu
tenant Dodge and field piece in
charge of L. M. Johnson.
The mission of the tug is 70 over
haul the Norma or any other
strange schooner found hanging
around the islands.
Three days ago the Norma was
reported off Kaena point. The
source from which the information
came is doubtful.
Tuesday night the Kaala report
ed strange schooner standing of
near Rabbit Island, and late,
making in the direction of Maui.
This schooner was later reported as
the Mile Morris from Koolau.
About noon Wednesday the tug
got up steam and was held in
readiness until the hour of depart
L
ure this morning. 1t is reported,
on loose authority, however, that
two signal rockets were sent up in
the neighborhood of Telegraph
Hill last night, and that this
fastened the departure of the tug.
The probable course Of the tug
is around this island, to Molokai,
to and around Maui and probably
to Hawaii. 1t will perhaps be out
several days, or until a pirate is
roped in.
Among the crack shots on the
tug are Jack McVeigh, Walter Wall
J. H. Mclean and Jos. Marsden.
Captain King is in charge of the
expedition.

Suggestion for Revenue Cutter-Lots

Rebels?

Penhallow, master of the Alice
Cooke, is reformed man. He will
do no more rifle rrscticing from

On Tuesday he dropped some bul.
lets around a dog and there was g

A Japanese cmigrant was struck
by bullet Wednesday afternoon.
He sustained all ugly wound in the
side. The japanese accepted tie
affair as a mistake. but was terribly
frightened. Captain Penhallow is
paying for the care of the wounded
man.
EASY FOR DOPE.
"Now YOU can see h W opium
gets i'll here without o1;cill con-
nivance," said a Custom House
employee this morning 1.-The
landing of arms OH Rabbit Island
tells the story. We are powerless.
There is too much coast line. We
are like the one-eyed doe il the
fable that kept her GOOD optic
on the land and was killed from a
boat. There is too much shore line
10 be watched with any force less
than biz army of qua, DIS.
"What we need aud what we
should have at once is a swift
revenue cutter. One could be pur-
chased for a few thousand dollars
and it would pay for itself in a
couple Of years. v
OTHER BODIES
All searching for dead bodies of
rebels has been futile. Careful
hunts have been made at Diamond
Head, Moiliili, Palolo and, Manoa.
That neither the accurate Smelling
nor the long range rifles were effec-
tive seems incredible. That they
did no execution can scarcely be
possible.
1t was at one time reported that
there were three dead rebels on
Diamond Head. The bodies can
not be found.
Now natives declare that three
insurgents were killed by Zeigler's
command at Moiliili on the first
Monday. The natives say the
bodies were brought into suburb
that night and buried. One caller
at this Office says cousin of his
was one of the trio. 1t is more
than likely that in time it will be
learned that the Smelling and long
range rifle shooting was more fatal
than now supposed.
MORE RIFLES FOUND.
Captain Parker and men went
back to Waialae Wednesday tc
search for arms. Altogether they
found nine rifles two pistols anc
one thousand rounds of ammuni
ton. A patrolman came in late
with two more rifles found in thu
same neighborhood. One of TIL
guns had the initials u. w. B.
upon it and was undoubtedly
thrown away by J. w. Bipikan'
when that brave Spartan fled from
the field.

Can This be True?

The New York Tribune has
reached the conclusion that the
State Department is getting funny.
In defense against the Lodge reso-
luton. administration men advance
the theory that "the programme of
withdrawing the Philadelphia from
Honolulu was in pursuance of a
clear understanding with Great
Britain that her forces would not
extend aid to the Royalists. This
understanding, it is contended, had
not been confded to Admiral
Walker at the time he was ordered
to return home with his ship"
