The Atmosphere.

Even if it were possible for man to
live without breathing air he could not
exist on the earth if it were without
an atmosphere. Plants derive carbon.
the most important element of their
food, from the air, and without plants
there could be no food for animals.
and therefore no human beings. Water
also comes from the atmosphere but
II there were 10 water there could be
neither plants nor animals. If food
and water could be supplied in some
other way the world would still be I'M
inhabitable by plants and animals ow-
ing to the severity of the cold. Without
an atmosphere there would be no
winds, and consequently no waves or
ocean currents. The sea-if we may
suppose one to have been supplied by
some unknown cause-would lie stag
nant pool, uninhabitable by seaweed
or fish.

In Favor of the Rocker.

In every American home the rocking
char is regarded as an indispensable
accessory. Those who love their rock
ing chair will be glad to know that a
medical authority has recently pro.
nounced it to be of use in certain
cases OF dyspepsia. If the patient
lies in an almost horizontal position.
and the movement of rocking is very
gentle in character, good results have
been know to follow, supposedly be-
cause the movement stimulates the
digestive organs. l would warn peo-
pie, however, against the introduc.
ton of rocking chair in the nursery.
where there are very young children.
While playing they are apt to utterly
disregard danger, and have often been
squeezed beneath the rockers. Again
tnefe is danger in using the rocking
chalr near delicate bric-a. brac of glass
csolnets for obvious reasons.

ANOTHER DISMISSAL?

The Spanish minister at Wash
ington has been making statements
for publication with the express
stipulation that he shall be consider
ed as talking in his personal and
not official capacity" The charge
that Hawaii's Mr.. Thurston had
done such thing as this was made
the pretext of demand by Pres
ident Cleveland for his recall. In
the first message to Congress after
that the matter was mentioned
The incident of the Spanish minis
ter getting himself interviewed
personally" should hold the atten-
ton of this Republic and its people
for some time. They owe it to
themselves to learn if Mr.. Cleveland
was following out an established
rule or simply venting spleen. The
latter was apparently the case. The
Spanish minister was indiscreet to
the limit in his published remarks.
He declared that the rebellion in
Cuba would never have amounted
to anything but tor the ''interfer
ence of the United States" and
continued in that strain to consider
able length.

likly to continue many months. A

can not be great. knowledge
abroad of the eruption will attract
hundreds of tourists and a full
quota of scientific men. This out

ALL WHO admire brains, bold
ness, progress, will sincerely hope
that a mistake has been made in
announcing the death of Hon. Cecil
Rhodes. His record in South Africa
has been that of a civilizer. His
remarkable ability and marvellous
energy removed from that field will
arrest an era Of development that
has promised to early literally open
NY new continent. Some of his
methods and acts have been criti
cised, but in such work as he ha:
been engaged, no man could b.

ABSENTEEISM.

1t should scarcely be deemed
necessary to put premium on resi-
dence in Hawaii. Some of the
opponents of a special absentee tax
will endeavor to force such an inter
probation Of the proposed measure.
1t is no more than right that resi-
dents abroad deriving large and
steady revenues from this country
should pay something extra for the
fine privilege. Their capital is pro-
tected without their assistance and
their whole connection with the
state consists in receiving profits.
If the country is good enough for
them to earn money in it should be
good enough for them to live in.
There cannot be objection TO the
climate. Educational advantages
are more than fair and society is
largely a matter of taste. Some OF
the absentees could with proper eff
fort make the environment here quite
satisfactory to themselves without
offending others. Landlord absen-
teeism is the curse of any country.
1t is recognized here as an evil
which it is more than folly to toler-
ate without an effort at remedy.

of the House Committee on
Rivers and Harbors in West
Virginia, Pennsylvania and
Ohio. The House and Senate
of these Islands seem to be on
a saving tack" by the way
they are cutting some of the
appropriations and salaries
What do they intend
doing with all of this money
that should be used in public
improvement of some kind?
Why not make a greater har-
Dor for Honolulu? The demand
for one has been brought very
forcibly to the eyes of the pub
lie in the last few months on
account of the number of YES
sells that have called here for
sugar.
Docks could be put up on
ground that today is of com
paratively small value, but in
the years to come might have
to be purchased at a very high
figure.
In the future when ships from
European countries bound fol-
the Orient utilize the Nicaragua
Canal, Honolulu will be in theil
most direct and shortest patti
and a great many will depend
upon stocking up here witt
provisions. Others will taxi
cargo for these Islands in con
, junction with Oriental freight
: Then the benefits Of ampl
