EDITOR DANA, after conserva

the question of cable to Hawaii
will come up before Congress at the
next session, and that reflection
meanwhile upon what it really in

since decision upon it can hardly

WAR SPIRIT IN JAPAN.

Notwithstanding Japan has, to
all intents and purposes, obtained
all she asked of China in making
terms of peace, reports from period
icals of the Orient indicate the war
spirit running high, and the desire
to push on till the Chinese capital
is captured, rife among the common
people constituting the rear party
of Japan.
The time has come to test the
true inwardness of the Japanese
western-world reform, to discover
the depth to which the forces of
civilization have penetrated. Moth
ing proves strength Of character as
the power of self-control. Anyone
possessed of great physical strength
can bluster about and forge ahead,
fully confident of his ability to
crush his opponent; but it takes
LIAM to withhold from striking
when he has his victim completely
within his power. The manner
in which the Japanese conduct
themselves during this period of |
cooling off will be watched with |
quite as much interest as the |
methods of warfare have been. |

Mr.. Ashford was long enough
in Hawaii to convince the PEG,

much intention of heading a
flibustering expedition as he
has of returning here and

porter in Frisco was one of his

left here, his main thought
was to do something in the

Some time ago, we pur-
chased a lot Of European wire
and Immediately afterward
some parties circulated a re-
port that the quality had been
affected by some unknown
cause and that it was not up
to the standard of the -Am1-
eYlcaas product. We had a half
dozen coils of the wire tested |
at the Iron Works and it |
showed a tensile strength of
1850 pounds. When this re-
port was published in this
column, the wire was sought
after by plantation managers
and individuals from Niihau to
Hawaii. The other day, to OBJ
lige a skeptic, we ordered a
hundred coils of American
wire from the Coast and as
it reached the store, we sent
a half dozen coils to the foun-
dry to have it tested. The
result showed a tensile
strength of 768 pounds or
about 1000 less than the Eu-
ropean article. We violate no
confidence when we tell you
that this American wire will
not be sold by US. We have

COLOR IN ARCHITECTURE.

Bleaching Winds and SOoty Air of
London Change Original COlors.
st. PauT's remains the grandest ex-
ample of architectural color in London
because Wren possessed the genius to
use the one building material, namely,
Portland stone, which, under the
bleaching winds and sooty air of Lon
don, assumes unique qualities Of color,
qualities at once In harmony and con-
trast with the gray atmosphere Of u

Those parts of the stonework of the
cathedral which have been subjected
to the action of the wind have become
blanched. and with so much color that

stone for some kind of marble; but
those parts of the stonework which

1t is the contrast between the bleach
ed and darkened surfaces of the build
ing which h%eightens the value of botn,
and produces ar effect of architectural
color not to be seen out of London.

A Natural Toboggan Slide I'm h
Bed of n River.
In Perak, a state in the Straits Set
Elements, the Malays have one form Of
amusement which is probably not to
be enjoyed anywhere else in the wide
world.
There is a huge granite slope in the
course of a mountain river, down
which the water trick'es about two
inches deep. the main stream having
carved a bed by the side of the boul-
der. This rock, the face of which has
been rendered as smooth as glass by
the constant flow of water during hun
dreds Of years, the Malays-men, wo-
men and chi dren-have turned into a
toboggan slide. says a writer in Lon
don Little Folks.
Climbing to the top Of the rock, they
sit in the shallow water with their
feet straight out and a hand on each
side for steering, and then slide down
the sixty feet into a pool of water.
This is a favorite sport on sunny
mornings. as many as two hundred
folks being engag d at a time, and
sliding so quickly one after another, or
forming rows of two, four and even
eight persons that they tumble into
the pool Il confused mass of scrambling
creatures. There is little danger in the
| game. and though some choose to sit
on Il piece of plant9in, most of the to-
boggauers are content to squat On their

On November 9 Bill Cook plundered
the town of Lenapah. killing one of
the citizens. Every store was looted.
The following few days farmers near
Muskogee suffered and a train or two
was wrecked and robbed.
Rewards were offered for the cap
ture of Bill Cook, and finally as many
as 300 men started out in different di-
rpctions to capture the outlaw.
