HILO NOW GIVES VOICE.
DELEGATION HERE TO LOBBY FOR
TOWN AND Is, AND.


y. b. Loebenstein, H. {. Austin
and d. Kamai, representing the
town of Hilo arrived this morning
to back up the Hawaii delegation
in the Legislature. The committee
brought resolutions adopted at a
meeting last Saturday evening.
About thirty leading men of the
town were present. w. w. Good
ale presided and Baptist was secre-
tary. A committee Of which F. M.
Wakefield was chairman prepared
the address. Remarks were made
by several and letters from the
Legislators read. These are the
resolutions:

taxpayers of the districts OF Hilo,
North Hilo, Puma and Kau, Island
of Hawaii, in general convention
assembled, having closely watched
the deliberations of the Legislature

tions that promise to the Island OF
Hawaii sufficient appropriations for
its most pressing needs, although
the efforts OF our delegation in this
regard have been untiring and call
for our hearty endorsement aud sup
port; and
WHEREAS, on the contrary, large
and free sums Of money disbursed
from the current receipts and rev.
enues of the Government from all
sources, are being appropriated for

RAIN INDICATIONS.
why Cirrus Clouds Tell with Almost Ab
solute Certainty Of Coming Storms.


In order to better understand the role
placed by cirrus clouds as rain indica.
tors, we must first discuss the causes Of
these occurrences. A study Of the wealth.
er indications and barometrical read
ings, as they appear in our daily papers
from the report Of our Weather Bu-
reau, shows that areas Of high OF low
air pressure are constantly passing over
the earth's surface in irregular success
sion. The areas of high atmospheric
pressure-or barometric maxima, me
toorologically expressed-stay longer In
one locality than the areas Of low pres
sure - the depression or barometrical
minima These last are more OF less de-
fined currents Of air, which circle in
the form Of wind around the region Of
the lowest atmospheric pressure, NOV
ing always from north TO west or from
south to east---the reverse Of the hands
Of clock. IL must not be imagined,
however, that the air simply moves
around this area of depression, but rather
that it is constantly being drawn into
its center and is carried upward in great
whirls or spirals. AS the air rises, il ex-
pands and becomes colder. The vapors IL
contains condense into clouds and final
lv are transformed into rain. The Gen.
ter Of tho barometrical depression is
therefore marked by cloudy, rainy
weather. The wind which enoircles the
I depression becomes more active rs the
difference of the atmospheric pressure
becomes more marked, or, in other
words, as the barometer falls
In brief, therefore, barometrical de-
pressions are caused by huge ascending
spirals, or whirls of air, which are car
ried upward to extreme heights, and
from there are waited In any direction.
In these heights the humidity Of the at
mosphere is frozen and Is waited away
in closed forms which are composed of
ice crystals. These are none other than
cirrus clouds. and they may float sew
eral hundred miles from the seat Of the
depression. IL will now be seen why
cirrus clouds may be justly regarded as
forerunners Of rain. even when they
make their appearance in clear weather.
They tell with absolute certainty of an
approaching atmospheric depression,
and this is substantiated by q gradual
falling of the barometer soon after they
make their appearance. Home and

of the general welfare of the couu-
try at large and the Island of Ha-

Construction Of roads, wharves and
other public works of necessity is Of
the utmost urgency and importance

years since 1882 is as follows:

The record for this year is carried
up only to the first of last week and
does not include the severe storms of
the week which swept through
Missouri and visited ST. Louis. With
the exception of Michigan, the south
west has been the fatal storm field
during the past month. Within
eleven days preceding the forepart of
last week, the Chicago Tribune found
that 120 lives were lost in Texas, 33 in
Kansas, Al in Nebraska, 16 in Okla
homa, 80 in Iowa, and Is in Illinois.
The large death list in 1898 was due
to the hurricane which swept the
south Atlantic and Gulf coasts in Aug
ust and October of that year While
the list of 1890 was greatly swelled by
the cyclone which went through south
ern Illinois and northern Kentucky,
and played considerable havoc with
Louisville. In commenting upon the
fatal storms of the past month the
Duluth Neaos- Tribune says: "The only
compensation which can be found for
such wholesale destruction of life and
property lies in the fact that it can
not be charged to human neglect,
carelessness or responsibility.
Whether science will ever be able to
forewarn people in time against the
approach of these messengers of DEATH
or whether it will be able to mitigate
their destructive fury, the future only
can determine. At present science
stands as helpless as an infant in their
presence"

AN UNFORTUNATE CASE.
An Insane Lady Whose Home Cannot
be Found.

Last week middle aged lady of re-
fined appearance arrived in the city
from Kansas City and Registered at
The Saulpaugh. She gave the name
of Miss Lurenah Kellogg, and said
that her father was John White, who
she claimed, was very wealthy. Her
incessant talking and other circum-
stances led to the belief that she was
insane, and she was on Saturday given
into the care of Sheriff Bowen, who
has ever since been vainly endeavor
ing to ascertain where her home
is. She had telegraphed to one
or more men in different places
asking for money. Sheriff Bowen
learned that an attorney named Mr..
Henry had given her ticket from
Kansas City to Mankato, as she
claimed to have relatives here, but
that her home was not there, and
nothing was known concerning her
there.
1t develops that Miss Kellogg is a
cousin of Mrs. Pettis, of this city.
She is said to have been wealthy once.
1t was thought that she had been an
inmate of the GAINESVILLE, ILL.,, insane
asylum, but this cannot be confirmed.
Miss Kellogg was crying and moan

A NEW PEST,
Called "French Wheat" Appears
i'm Blue Earth County
Fields.
Grows Three Crops Season and
Rapidly Saps the Fertility OF
the Land.

Mr.. Henry, Sontag, Of Mankato
township, brought to our office Tues
day specimen of weed which
he SAYS is called ''French wheat" 1t
has root like flax and is said to be
equally as hard in sapping the fertil-
ity of the land, and worse in the re-
spect that three crops of it will grow
in a season-the first CROP is just now
maturing. 1t grows some ten inches
high, and some six inches of it is
covered with seed cells which are fill
ed with minute seeds. Mr.. Sontag
says that the wind will carry these
cells, when dry as it Edoes thistle
down. This seed was introduced here
some eight years ago in seed wheat
obtained from the Dakotas, and has
now spread over a section several
miles square. 1t has small white
blossom, rendering it easily seen,
and war should be made on it by far
merS, wherever it shows itself. Mr..

where it was first introduced are al
ready badly over run with it, though
various means have been resorted to
to eradicate it, and one or two rich
fields have been entirely Slapped of
their fertility, so that growth of
corn is only of very spindling ma
ture. An attempt will be made by
seeding with clover to see if that will
help eliminate the pest. The seeds,
like wild oats, will remain in the
ground for three of four years with
out Sprouting, making it extremely
difficult to get rid Of while it's quick

and Canada thiStles picnic to han
