Great size of head and brain is in
q cative of extraordinary mental power
cnly when 'other things are equal"
that is to say, when the quality of
brain is fine and the vital functions
generally are of superior order. Pro-
portion to the size and weight of the
entire body is also to be taken into ac-
count. An illustration of the fact that
the size of the head is not Il direct and
tnVafying measure of intellectual
greatness is suggested by the remark in
Il recent biography of Louis Agassiz
mat while Cuvier and Agassiz both
possessed enormous heads and largely
developed brains, neither Lamarck nor
Darwin was abnormal as regards the
size and development of the head"

A Big Chunk of Silver.

In popular history Of America pub
hshed many years ago an account is
given of the discovery of a silver mine
In Peru by an Indian, who, while chas-
ing game in the mountains, seized a
shrub for support, and the shrub, COM
ing loose In his hands, revealed glitter
Ing masses of silver clinging to its roots.
This story is recalled by the recent dis
tovery in Pinal County, Arizona, of a
nugget of native silver which had been
washed and worn by water no one
knows how long, but which still weighs
44S troy ounces. 1t is of an oval form.
and Its surface is so marked as to in
dlcate that 1t consists of crystals of
silver formed in strings, and afterward
compacted into a mass. The nugget
has been placed in the National Mn
scum in Washington.

The Earth's Animals.

A recent computation places the on.

which up to the present time have baen

Many new species are added every wear

vaded by students eager to gain distinc.

to the lists of science. The number
OF species already known is so creot
That even naturaliSts are sometimes
troubled to keep track of them. and a
project has just been set on foot In Ger
many to publish work in which tha
entire animal population of the ploha
shall be arranged and described on n
uniform system. The publication is to
be begun next year, and quar- of

Fatal Measles and Mumps.

1t is reported that terrible epidemic
Of measles and mumps is raging in
Costa Rica. One writer says that as
many as ten thousand children died of
these diseases in Il period of three
weeks. The government suppresses
the facts. 1t is well known that
measles is a much more dangerous dis
ease in countries where it has never
Deen known than in Europe and Amer
lea. 1t probably becomes mlder by be-
ing filtered through the bodies of sue
cessive generations. When measles
first gained foothold in Fiji it was as
virulent and as fatal as cholera.

Size of an Earthquake Wave.

seismologists say that every great
earthquake causes pulsations which ex-
tend for thousands of miles in all di.
rcctions ON the globe, and Prof. Milne
Ekens such pulsations to the long, low
swells that sweep across the ocean.
Recently Prof. Charles Dawson has at
tempted to measure the height and
length of the waves of an earthouoke
that occurred in Greece on April 27.
1874, the pulsatlOns of which were per.
oeived by the aid of a specially con-
Structed pendulum at Birmingham in
England. The pulsations, or waves
passed through the rocky crust of the
earth with a velocity of about two miles
n second, and each of the largest of
them, according to Prof. Dawson. must
nave been about twenty eight miles in
length, but only half an inch in height

CLEANS STREETS
Peculiar Actions of an Old
Frenchman.
Arrived on the Miike-Maru Two
Months Ago-Was in Second
Revolution in France, 1S4S.

Casimir Calipe is the name of a
Frenchman who has during the past
two months excited great deal of
curiosity by his peculiar actions. At
night time he. may be seen at a GER
tain place along on King street deeply
engrossed in reading. and during the
day he may be found walking in the
vicinity of the wharves and fish mar
ket Tipping stones and any bit of rub
bish out of his way by means of thin
cane of redwood.
His dress is, to say the least, pc
culiar. A soft high hat, long buster,
a suit of gray, much the worse for
wear and patched in several places,
together with a flannel shirt and
heavy shoes complete his makeup.
Slung over his shoulder is a strap that
holds a bag, where he keeps his food.
1t is very seldom that Casimir will
speak to any one, but the rainy wealth
er of yesterday seemed to have a pc
cuIiar effect upon him, and he told the
following story:
my name is Casimir Calipe, and
was born in Paris some 65 years ago.
When 1 was but II years old l took
part in the second revolution in
France, and served with the National
Guard. You will remember from your
reading that we joined with the people
against the soldiers, and that although
the latter refused to fire upon us for
some time, they were finally irritated
in some way and did fire. 1t was then
that 1 and a number of my comrades
were wounded, it being my special mis-
fortune to be hit in the head.
Later I was given two pensions,
and now 1 am on a tour around the
world, seeing what I can and always
trying to get into a warm climate,
such as yours, for the winter.
81 arrived here from Japan on the
steamer Miike-Maru some two months
ago, and since that time have seen
much of your beautiful city.
after remaining here short time
longer 1 shall go to HilO, and then,
returning here, shall take a steamer
for San Francisco.
81 find the living in Honolulu ex-
tremely cheap-much more so than
any place I have been in yet. My
breakfast costs me Is cents, and what
1 do not eat of that 1 put in this bag
and 1 am fixed for all day"
Further questioning failed to bring
Calipe's life. He merely said he was
off to the post Office to see if he had
any good news from France, and with
a polite bow, walked away.

w. w. DIMOND.

Much of the solid silver
ware used in Honolulu is
bought in San Francisco by
people visiting there be-
cuse it is cheaper.
Twenty-Five per cent duty
is a great deal too much to
pay and it temptS people to
make purchases while they
are where they may buy it
cheaper. There is nothing
criminal in the transaction,
just a bit of practical econ
omy. There would have
been no necessity for these
buyers to 60 abroad, if deal
erS were willing to divide
with their customers. The
profit is large enough on
solid ware to cut off the
twenty-five per cent. and
sell it at a margin satisfactory
to every one. People do not
buy when they are abroad
because they can get better
goods, but because they can
get it cheaper.
The selections made by us
are from three of the largest
factories in the States. We
buy for cash and get the ar
ticleS cheap and will sell
them at twenty five per cent.
or exactly the same as is
charged in San Francisco.
We have Child'S sets at $6.75
and full tea sets for a great
deal more; the quality has
never been surpassed in this
country and the prices have
never been equalled.

FISHMARKET FIGHT.
Assistant Inspector Bruises a

Assistant Inspector Bruises a
Chinaman and is Arrested.
On Sunday evening last occurred the
first fight in the fishmarket since it's
opening after the cholera epidemic
and it was another case of Chinaman
VS.. Hawaiian.
Nakookoo, assistant fish inspector
under David Keliipio, was going about
on his regular rounds and was feeling
some of the fish at one of the Chinese
stands when Young Chow, who was in
charge, interposed an objection, claim
ing that the fish would become bruised
and spoiled if Nakookoo continued to
poke his fingers into them. He told the
assistant inspector that he had better
throw the fish away, but the latter
claimed they were good. Then a second
thought came to him and he told the
Chinaman that if he wanted him to
throw the fish away he would. With
this he threw them into the refuse
barrel.
Shortly after he walked away he
saw the Chinaman go to the barrel and
anticipating his action ran after him
just in time to catch Young Chow TAX
ing out the fish. This he put stop to
and the Chinaman answered with a
blow which was returned with interest.
A scuffle followed and of course the
Chinaman got the worse of it. Nakoo-
koo was arrested, but released later on
bail. His case will come up on Thurs
day.
