SOME SIGNS OF THE TINES.

How easy it Is, how natural, to
look on the discouraging side
OF things, and how much sancti-
fed common sense it needs to look
mp and beyond present discourage
ments and failures with the assur-
ance that better counsels and con-
ditions are the surety of the future !!
Just this last outlook is what every
high-minded man and woman and
especially every Christian, should
give to the temperance question. It
is more than easy to court discourage.
ment when we think of the almost
countless saloons in our country
alone, multitudes of drinkers, open
and secret, the awful volume of
crime that rolls up yearly as the
result of the liquor-trafic; and we
need to face all these facts unshrink-
Ingly and take in their full purport.
But there is another side, and a
bright one, that Just as surely claims
our attention. There never was such
organized opposition to the lisuor-
traffic as there is today; there never
were SO many workers for the cause
OF temperance, some by one method
and some by another, but all with
the one end in view; there never
were SO many brilliant minds giving
their best to the solution of the prob.
lens that liquor presents and trying
to carry the results into practice;
there were never more pulpits open
to the frank discussion of the cues
ton and unfaltering denunciation of
the evil In high places and low, nor
80 much temperance literature. and
that Of the highest order; and the
secular press-whether from conYic- |
ton or because of the desire to print |
what the public wish to know it
not-gives constantly valu-
able reports Of temperance meetings,
speeches and sermons,
and gives them with increasing re-
5pectfulness of tone.
The light is surely, though slowly,
breaking over all the world. It will
take time for high noon to reach US,
but it will come. We need not be
fearful or discouraged; Goods in his
heaven-all's well with the world"
The thing for us to be mindful of is
hat we give Of ourselves-infuence
means, work-in helping on this part
Of the kingdom" which is to ''come."

NatiODaIC Cane Shredder
tPATENTED UNDER THE LAWS az
THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS,

Mr.. John A. Scott, Manager
of the Hilo Sugar Company
gives the following wonderful,
record of the working of the
NATIONAL CANE SHRED.
DER, which was erected by
their works at the commences
ment of the crop just har-
vested:
During the past week the
Hilo Sugar Company's mill ex-
ceeded any of its former
records by closing the 1875
hours grinding with an output
of 3003 tons. This is fully %
per cent. more than the bSst
work Of former years.
"The three roller mill being
26 in. by sd in. and the two
roller mill 80 in. by 60 in. The
first. mill doing this amount Of
work in an efficient manner
and with great ease, compared
with work on whole cane,
owing to thorough preparation
of the cane by the National
Cane Shredder, recently cree
ted by the Company. And
by its use the extrac;
ton has been increased from
8 per cent. to 5 per cent. on all
kinds of cane, and in some
cases 80 per cent. has been
reached; the average being 20
to Is per cent, according TO
quality.
81 continue to find the
megass from shredded cane
better fuel than from whole
cane.
"The shredder has been
working day and night for
seven months and has given
me entire satisfaction, having
shredded during that time
about seventy thousand. tons
of cane, and a large part Of it
being hard ratoons.
''The shredder and engine
require very little care or
attention"
wPlans and specifications
of these shredders may be seen

WHY ICE FLOATS.

1t Is Specifically Lighter Than Water just
About to Freeze.
Ice is specifically Fighter" than water
just about to freeze, and, therefore,
floats upon 1t, says an exchange. There
is one reason why the formation of ice
usually, but not always, begins at the
surface. Another reason is because of
its peculiar law of expansion. The
general law is that cold induces con-
traction. This holds good in the case
OF water only to n certain point. When
water has cooled down to within IA de-
grees of freezing it ceases to contract
as before, and with increased cold,
actually begins to expand, and con-
tinues to do SO until it freezes. This
expansion causes the colder portions of
the water to rise to the surface.
Above we have said that ice does not
always begin to form at the surface of
the water. The exception is in the
case of what is known as ground" or
"anchor ice" In this case the whole
body of the water is cooled at the same
time to below the freezing point, and the
substances at the bottom, such as the
stones and pebbles of river or lake beds,
serve as nucleus or point of congcla-
ton and capitalization for the water.
This rare species of ice is formed under
such peculiar circumstances that others
than students and eXperimenters sell
dom see it.

ONE HUNDRED MILLION STARS.
How Astronomers Compute the Number
In the Heavens

How Astronomers Compute the Number
In the Heavens
Let us sec what richness of stellar
distribution is implied by this number
OF 100, 100000 of visible stars, says the
Gentlemans Magazine. It may be
easily shown that the area of the
whole sky In both hcmisphercs is ii ,2S5
square degrees. This gives 2,434 stars
to the square degree.
The moons apparent diameter being
slightly over half degree Isl deg. S
min.), the area of it's disk is about ono
fifth OF q square degree.
The area of the whole star sphere is
consequently about 2OO,O 900 times the
urea of the full moon. A total of 100
OO0, 900 of stars gives therefore 500 stars
to each space of sky in area to the full
moon. This seems large number, but
stars scattered over as thiclly as this
would appear at considerable dis
lance apart when viewed with tele-
scope OF Il high power. AS the area of
the moons disk contains about $50
square minutes of arc, there would not
be an average of even one star to each
square minute. pair of stars half n
minute, or thirty seconds, apart would
form n very wide double star, and with
stars placed at even this distance the
moons disk would cover about 8 200, or
six times the actual number visible in
the largest telescope

Blsmarck.s Diplomacy.

One dry the Austrian ambassador to
the federal diet, Count Rechberg, re-
ceived dispatch instructing him to
vote with Prussia for certain impor-
tant measure, accompanied with con-
fdential letter directing him to induce
the representatives of the other Ger
man states to vote against the measure
and thus defeat it. In his haste he
handed the wrong paper to Bismarck,
who read and returned it with the re-
mark: There must be some mistake
here" Rechberg saw his blunder, and
grew pale and excited. Don't be dis
turbed," said Bismarck; "you did not
intend to give me this document, and
therefore you have not given it to me,
and l am wholly ignorant of its con-
tents" In fact, he made no mention of
it in his official reports, and thus won
Rechberg's gratitude, besides having
him henceforth ION the hip"

CRUELTY IN GREENLAND
Darbarous Features There of the Marriage

Darbarous Features There of the Marriage
Customs.
For wanton cruelty In tho capture OF
Q bride we must go to Greenland.
There we find something moro than
simulated violence in the method of
capture and the means by which the
girl is retained. DIR. Manson, In his ac-
count of his Journey Across Green
land" says that on the west coast mar
ringe nowadays roughly follows the
lines of marriage in Europe, but ON the
cast coast old customs prevail. A man
having made up his mind to take to
himself u wife, goes to the tent Of q
family, ono of whose girl members
meets his views, catches her by the
hair or In some other equally rude
way, and drags her forth to his home
He there presents her with bucket or
some useful domestic utensil, and the
ceremony Is complete.
According to Baron Nordenskiold,
etiquette requires that the bride should
receive hard blows. Sho does not sub
NIT readily, but bewails her fate, ap-
pears with torn garments and dishev-
e1ed hair, and makes show of getting
away from her husband. Sometimes
European would certainly not know
whether It WIS or not. He might be
tempted to interfere, In which case he
would probably find himself opposed
by the bride as well as bridegroom. In
order that tho apparently miserable
woman might be compelled to remain
In her new home, the barbarous Gus
tom used to exist Of branding her feet
SO that they were too painful for her
to walk. BY the time they were we'll
she could with propriety declare her
self resigned to her position.
In Greenland, it Is easy to tell who is
married and who is not The Esqui-
maux women gather up their hair into
huge tuft on the top, tying it with n
ribbon, the color Of which denotes their
position a maid wears red, a married
woman blue, n widow, black; widow
anxious to remarry, black and rcd;
widow too old to remarry, white.
