The utility of windmills on
the Islands has never been
clearly illustrated for the reason
that until the introduction of
the Aermotor by the HA-
WAIIAN HARDWARE
COMPANY there was not a
mill that would meet the re-
quirements of the purchaser or
that could be made to run in
localities where the wind is, at
times, so light that it is impos-
sible to make the old style
wooden wheel turn around.
The Aermotor is construct
ed of steel so light, yet strong,
that it moves with the slight
est wind nor is it affected in
any manner in the severest
gale. 1t is an absolute fact
that the ordinary wooden mill
will remain motionless on ac-
count of the scarcity of wind
while at the same time the
Aermotor will be pumping
water.

Volcanoes and Iceberrs.

In recent years the size and number of
the icebergs seen In the South Atlantic
nnd South Pacific oceans have both
been enormous, and various sugges-
tiOns have been made to account for the
phenomenon. Evidently something un.
usual has been going on In the un.
known regions surrounding the South
Pole. Tho latest suggestion bearing on
this subject comes from Mr.. H. c. Rus.
uell, who has presented It before the
Royal Society Of New South Wales.
His idea, In brief, Is that there has been
an extraordinary outburst Of the great
volcanoes known to exist within the
Antarctic circle. and that the conse.
quent shaking Of the ice-clothed shores
OF the Antarctic Continent has resulted
In the breaking of Of immense frag.
ments of ice, which have afterward
been driven northward by winds and
currents.

1usect Vision

Insect Vtot0ns
It Is known that insects are ordinarily
unable to fly through net whose mesh.
es are three or four times the size OF
their bodies. A bird would dart through
such an aperture without hesitation.
Several explanations have been offered
Tor the conduct Of insects In this respect.
Felix Plateau lately made experiments,
reported to the Royal Academy Of Bel
GUM, from which he concludes that the
peculiar facetted structure Of the eyes
OF insects Is the cause Of their difficulty
In traversing nets. TO IN insect. lie
thinks. a net looks like continuous
partially opaque surface, the separate
lines being unnoticed, and accordingly
on approaching net the insect alights
before discovering that 1t might have
continued Its flight and passed through.

Gets a Floater for Vagrancy in Order to
Leave for Home
Just before court adjourned for the day
yesterday Humane Officer Clark appeared
before Justice Owens, having with him the
girl May Richter, who was few nights ago
arrested for vagrancy. The girl was found
in company with a man named George
Davis smoking opium in den at the cor
ner of Arcadia and Los Angeles streets.
Nays mother, who resides in San Diego,
heard of her daughters arrest and wrote to
Captain Clark to see if he could not do
something in the way of inducing the girl
to abandon her life of shame and go home.
The mother inclosed sufficient money to
pay her fare to San Diego and implored
her erring daughter to come back for the
sake of her little baby.
May has never been married, but was
seduced by scoundrel and gave birth to
child some months ago. The shame and
disgrace of her position induced her to
leave home and come to this city, where
she led the life of an outcast. When she
was arraigned, the day after her arrest,
she demanded a jury trial and had the case
set for April 9th. Yesterday she came up
and pleaded guilty and was given 100 day S
in Jail, commitment to be suspended until
5 p. m. tonight TO enable her to leave for
home on the 9:15 train this morning, Sh Q
promised to go and the captain volunteered
to see her safely off. If she ever returns
to this city to resume her life the sentence
will be put into effect.

ASSAULT TO KILL

Cutting Scrape Between Drunken Tien In the
Cape Horn Saloon
About o'clock last evening John Nolan
entered the Cape Horn saloon on Upper
Main street, drunk and in a fighting hui
NOR. In his han1 he carried an open clasp
knife. Walking up TO Joseph Michigan,
who was sitting in chair i'll the barroom,
Nolan, without n word, made pass with
the knife and stuck it into Melligan's q
throat near the thoraX. A scufile ensued
which brought an officer to the scene, and
both men were placed under arrest.
When the patrol wagon arrived the
wounded man and his assailant were
placed in it, but just as the vehicle was
about to start for the station some one in
the crowd called to Officer Robbins, who
was with the wagon, to look out for Nolan,
as he had knife. Robbins reached over
TO search for the weapon, when Nolan re-
sisted and a terrible struggle ensued, No
Ian trying to get hold of his carver or throw
the officer from the wagon.
He was finally subdued and the cuffs
placed on his wrists, not before he had
torn Robbins coat nearly off him and ne
cessitated Driver Sites coming 10 the
rescue. At the station Nolan was charged
with assault to kill and Meiligan's injuries
looked after. 1t was found that the knife
had inflicted but superficial wound
slashing the skin but not to any depth.
Tho wound bled profusely but will heal in
a few days time. Michigan was booked
for medical treatment and will be held as a

SUICIDE BY STRYcHNINR
A Young Mexican Poisons Himself Without
Known Cause

Young Mexican POiSonS HimSelt without
Known Cause
Godofredo Yorba, a young Mexican
some 80 years old, committed suicide yes
by taking strychnine. Yorba lived at San
Juan Capistrano, but came to this city last
Saturday from Santa Ana. He was stop
ping with the family of Ruiz Moreno, at
the number and street named, who were
old friends of his. The Moreno family
consists of the father, his sister, mother
and a son and daughter. The latter is
about 20 years old and quite handsome.
At present Mrs. Moreno ia out of town on
a visit, but the remainder of the household
were at home.
On. Sunday evening Yorba attended
retired early. He arose Monday morning
in seemingly good spirits and left the house
for short time. When he came in from
the back yard he found Moreno's sister
preparing breakfast, the rest of the family
not yet having risen. He sat down and
took a cup Of coffee, chatting PLEASANTLY
meanwhile. Suddenly he complained Of
fearful pains in his head and stiffening
of the joints. These rapidly grew worse
and he retired to bedroom and laid upon
the foot of bed.
Later on he was seized with convulsions
and died about 8 o'clock in terrible agony,
the attending physician being unable to
save his life. The coroner was notified
and the body was removed to the UNDER
taking rooms of r. L. Garrett on North
Main street. An inquest was held at 4
o'clock, the jury, after hearing all the testi-
mony, returning a verdict of suicide by
strychnine poisoning. Yorba left no letters
or writing of any kind which would explain
his reasons for self-destruction, but it was
surmsed that he had poisoned himself as
the result of a lovers quarrel. None of the
family would say word as to whether the
Moreno girl and Yorba had had an attach
ment for each other, and the girl herself
refused to affirm or deny the fact of mu-
tual regard. Thus the motive for the act
of self-destruction is still a mystery.

THE TALBOT COMING BACK
SHE WILL GO ON DRYD0CK FOR RE-
PAIRS AND CAULKINd
Three Thousand Barrels to Be Added to Her
Capacity-News From the Oil FieId-No
Advance in Price Yesterday Wells
to Be Sunk

A letter was received at the oil exchange
Yesterday which stated that the Enoch
Talbot had finished discharging her cargo
of 5000 barrels of petroleum at the docks
of the Arctic Oil company in San Fran
cisco and would be put on the dry dock
to-day, Tuesday. She will be overhauled
and have her seams caulked, and is ex-
pected TO be put back into the water by
Thursday night. With fair wind she will
be due at Santa Monica or Redondo next
Monday or Tuesday, ready for the second
cargo. On the way down new tanks will
be fitted, which will enlarge her carrying
capacity 5000 barrels, SO that on her next
VOYAGE she will take away not less than
5000 barrels all told. Alarming reports
had been circulated as to her unseaworthy
condition, but Mr.. Botsford, her principal
owner, states that she had but strained at
the seams and will be in first.class shape
in every respect when again put into the
water.
No difficulty was experienced in dispos-
ing of her cargo; in fact, none OF 1t went
into the tanks, being hauled away direct
from the dock to fill orders of consumers.
The coal dealers of the city have inaugur-
ated a desperate fight against the fuel oil,
and the black diamonds are now selling in
San Francisco at about So per ton in ship
load lots. At this price there is no money
in the coal business, and it is not believed
that it can be maintained:
During the month of February the South
ern Pacific handled 146 carloads of oil
from this city for San Francisco. This was
an average of five per day. The Talbots
cargo would fill forty-six cars, SO thatthere
was consumed in that time nearly 200 car
loads of oil. And still the cry is for more.
meeting of the board of directors of the
oil exchange was held yesterday afternoon,
but the expected raise in the price of oil
was not made. Several members argued
strongly in favor of jumping the quotation
to 80 cents, but it was decided
to wait week at least before
doing anything. 1t was reported that one
carload had been sold at 50 cents +. O.
b., which statement, while lacking conf1r-
nation, had o depressing effect. Great
activity at present prevails i'll the oil field,
and all parties are preparing to sink new
wells as rapidly as possible SO as to be on
deck when the 81 mark is reached. The
new we'll at Puente, a quarter of mile
east Of the heretofore, recognized belt:
owned by Mr.. Graves. of the law firm of
Graves. O'Melveny g. Shankland, is now
producing finely of high gravity oil, and
the prospect for continued flow is encour-
aging.
r. t. Doheney is shortly to commence
drilling three new wells on the Lathrop
property, which he recently acquired.
Very little oil has been hauled out of the
field since last Friday, owing to the recent
rain, which, in the adobe soil, makes a
fearful mess to pull the heavy tank wagons
through. BY this morning hauling will
he resumed to the storage tanks and to
cons,Imers.
