 It is often stated in American paper, that Japan, flushed by the victory oye, China, will soon take possession of Hawaii, if the United States does not annex. and then in the event of war be. tween Russia and Japan, Russia might secure the island. This would place one of the greatest military powers just outside the Golden Gate, ready to de. mand entrance at any moment. On this point I secured the personal, not the official, opinion of Consul shisnizu. the Japanese consul. He said:
 Japan does not want Hawaii for several reasons. It is too far away, f would be too expensive to keep and would be of no benefit whatever. Ii Japan should get possession of Hawaii

FRANCE AND RUSSIA.


o.. French statisliolan, Mr.. Roche,
ns1 recently published some ngur,s
showing the position Of France among
the European nations at different
rsEl9ds, with regard to the number Of
population. A. tho end Of the reign Of
Luis XIV l7lD France had 10000.
900 inhabitants. II was then the most
influential nation In Europe. Al the
same line England had but 100000
Inhabitants. Germany was divided ia
tniTly s,atcg. AustFiAF population
amounted 10 between ten aud twelve
miIlons. Prussia had only 1000, 600.
Poland o.unted about 100000 anu
spain between tigh! and nine millions.
Italy was divided IN number Of
pfuciraliues, all Of which ha1 per.
hGi1 100000 inhabitants. Russia
was almost terra incOgnita, with
probably not more than l2,OOJ,UO1 PEG,

European nations France stlll held a.
The time OF tho revolution, when the
population had increased 70 %, 900, 600.
Germany nad about the same number,
u which Prussia claimed 100000,

Phenomena Of the Upper Air.
Richard Inwards looks for great re-
suits to meteorological lore from the
experiments of Hcrmite In trying to
secure more abs 1lute data concerning
the phenomena Of the upper air. It
will be remembered that NJ. Hermite
sent up experimental balloons which
carried instruments go contrivcd as
to register the various changes Of con-
ditions through which the balloons
passed. One Of these balloons rose to
a height Of ten miles, where the pres
sure of air was only Al inches of mer-
curry, and the temperature 10 F. below
zero. It was made evident, by strik-
ing an average on the records of the
balloons, that although there are con-
siderable variations in the temperature
