Three Runaway Children

Martha and Lizzie Myers, two little
girls who had run awy from their home
on Sierra street, were picked up on First
street at an early hour yesterday morn
ing by Officer johnson and sent in 20
the police station for safekeeping. Later
in the day their mother called for he,
offspring and took them home, at the
same time reporting the loss of her
little son, Max Myers, who had also
skipped out. The lad was found late in
the afternoon in the East Side police
station, where he had been placed by
an officer. who caught him stealing a
ride on an electric car. The reunited
family got home about dark, and it is
safe to say that the mother devoted a
few minutes time to each in the use OF
switch to teach her youngsters the
error Of their ways.

A BENEFIT TO CALIFORNIA
The System Of Refrigeration Invented by
Pedsgogue
Attention Again Drawn to Rev. B. M. Nvce
Of Indiana, Who Built the First Storage
House for Fruit, N.srly ~ Years Ago

To whom. does the honor belong Of
having been the original inventor of the
system of refrigeration?
Many different patents have been TAX
en-. out, that have brought certain
amount of fame and fortune to their
inventors, but District Attorney DON
nell believes that to the late Rev. B. M.
Nyce, the pedagogue who whaled the
life out of him as a boy when he jim
fringed any of the stringent rules of the
school, and gave sympathetic encour-
aselnent when due attention was given
to class work, belongs the honor of de-
vislng the first cold-storage room.
And Major Donnell stands not alone
in his belief.
Rev. Il. Nj. Nyce was preacher,
teacher and chemist, and in 1858, at
Kingston, Ind. took out his first patent
for system of cold storage of fruits.
also one at Greensburg, Ind. AS might
naturally be supposed, these first
houses for cold storage were crude at
tempts. They were simply immense
rooms, with double walls and ceiling.
The spaces in the walls were filled in
with closely packed clover chaff a non
conductor of heat. Overhead, in the
ceiling, blocks Of ice We're placed, also
packed closely in the clover chaff, drain
age pipes carrying off the water as the
ice melted. In one corner of each of
these rooms was placed bank of quick
lime, that served the purpose of absorb
ing all the moisture in the atmosphere.
In the center of the room was large,
triple-bladed fan, somewhat similar TO
those in use in the restaurants and 9TH
er places in this city, attached to an
iron shaft that ran up through the CELL
ing, and that was made to revolve by
a windmill above. In this way the air
storage
or less constant agitation and the tenn
perature still farther reduced.
These crude devices gave way, in
time to more perfect methods, but at
that time the scheme was considered a
great one. Mr. Nyce removed to Green's
burg In 1860 and to Cleveland, Ohio, In
1864. At the latter place he was prin-
cipal of the high school, and, in COM
pany with Samuel Shirk. also now de-
ceased, succeeded in perfecting the
storage system. From New Orleans H.,
received an offer of $3.50, 900 for the right
to use the system in Louisiana, and his
royalties amounted to quite large
sum. Other and more shrewd inventors
appropriated his ideas, however. and
pushed their patents ahead of his. III
this way his revenue remained at hun
dreds of dollars when it righteously
ought to have been hundreds Of thous-
ands.
Attention has been again drawn to the
memory of Rev. B. NJ Nyce, as an edu-
Gator and inventor, by reason of the
fact that reunion of his pupils of forty
years ago took place recently in Indi-
ana. Major Donnell, needless, perhaps,
to say, was not present but his family

ing, no less than eight out of the thirty.

THE THEOSOpHISTS
Addresses by II. A. Gibson and J. II. Swerd.
flyer Of Pasadena

Addresses BY n. A. Gibson and j. II. Swerd-
flyer of Pasadena
H A. Gibson was the speaker at Blav-
atsky hall, No. 525 West Fifth street,
yesterday at II a. m. His subject was
The Real Heredity. He said in part that
man is generally supposed to be body
with characteristics produced by ply
sical heredity and new soul given in
some mysterious manner to each. The
body of itself has no force; when the
informant deserts 1t it soon goes to decay.
There are three phases Of evolution in
each, physical intellectual and spiritual.
Parents cannot produce life except ma
ture wills to cooperate. Mere animal
form without endowment of intellect
is an idiot. Rational man is a soul in
forming incidentally a body to gain
knowledge in earth life. Each body Is
built according to\a prototype as each
tree is an oak, a maple or what not by
reason of type resident in the seed
creating flllny form of ether, to which
the tree grows. Prof. Jordan of Stanford
university, in The Forum admits that
thought can be photographed on a pre-
pared substance. So are our bodies
builded into an etheric form created by
our thought and which is medium be-
tween the brain and nerves. Man at
death casts off this gross physical COW
ering, the body, and with its decay goes
the etheric model or astral body and
from the thought forms and desires is
builded design body for a model for
the next body of flesh. Etheric centers
around which physical organs are form
ed, this by the laws Of affinity is drawn
to those parents who can give form to
the type already prepared to express
the phase of life and experience sought.
Each informant by choice and desert
built UP the form. Even in a few years
thought and desire make a rapid and
marked change in a body, rendering it

Potential Possibilities Of Human Progress
J. H. Swerdfiger Of Pasadena yester-
day delivered an address before Har-
mony branch of the Theosophical So
ciety, at No. 1856 South Broadway, on
The Potential Possibilities of Human
Progress Theosophy teaches that In
the scale of evolution UP to the human
family each kingdom is moved by
force without, from which there is no
escape, but as we rise higher and higher.
we find greater freedom of action, until
in man we perceive freedom Of choice
which is the manifestation of the high
er self, an indication Of spiritual devel-
opment.
At some stage of every human devel-
opment that person must make a be-
ginning in the work of voluntarily unit
ing his individuality in the forward
movement or drop hopelessly in the
rear of the advancing wave of evoiu-
ton. Those who take an interest in
higher spiritual truths do so by having
fitted themselves for the appreciation
of them. and are qualified for disciple
ship. Those who have outstripped hui
manity in development and advanced
to a high degree in evolution we know
as adopts, or masters. These men are
members of our human family who
have attained the maximum point Of
development. There is nothing in their
rapid progress to cause doubt If we pay
attention to the dominant idea, which
is the all-embracing motive of occult
progress. The unity of spiritual con-
sciousness is the principal thought to
appreciate the insignificance of physi-
cal sensation the logical deduction. The
first thought brings with it the desire
to realize that unity in consciousness,
which is equivalent to the wish to pro-
mote the divine idea expressed in the
system to which we belong; the second
thought, If fully absorbed, entirely ex-
tinguishes selflshness.
The path of occult progress is an un-
dertaking worthy of being the pursuit of
the highest human virtue. There is no
other career of philanthropy or benev-
olence that is comparable with 1t, for
the more engaged in this duty the
greater is the influence on mankind at
large for their spiritual advancement
and their elevation above the karmic
conditions that give rise to physical
misery and suffering

The rain storm which common
ced between Q and 10 o'clock

and shows no abatement at noon.
The rainfall up to Gp. m. yester-
day was 3.87 and at w. W. Halls
place $50. Up to 8 o'clock this
morning MIR. Halls gauge showed
$50 additional, and since that
time fully an inch and a half more
has fallen, making total for the
storm of over seven inches. This
is quite heavy rainfall for a lit
tie over "a hours and the streets
have suffered severely from it.
All the streets running down

also the government nur-

The rainfall has not been as
heavy up Nuuanu valley as on the
plains, and although the new
channel is banks full no damage
has yet been done to any of the
late improvement work.
On the railroad there has been
no washout of importance re
ported, but the track suffered
some damage from the extra high
tide of last night and the violent
south wind which blew the water
over the track in places.

an extra force of men at work re-

wherever possible and keeping
drains and cutters clear of debris,
but he hes no easy task.
Stockmen are jubilant over the
storm and don't care how long it
