Supposing the steamer China
bad remained here until the ques.
ton of her registry had been de-
termined, and the steamer Coptic
had not been just where she was
on the schedule, before the delay
of the China would have been
accounted for in the outside world
she would have been week over
due. In that case, which might
have occurred, the anxiety over the
big liner may be imagined. Yet
ii is something like what is liable
to happen any time, and what did
actually happen last year when
the Miowera went out of her track
to assist another steamer in dis
tress. The conclusion is irresis.
tible, that the steamship traffic in
the Pacific has grown too great to
be satisfactorily conducted with
out the accessory of telegraph
cable. Why don't all the steam
ship companies interested form a
cable syndicate and supply the
great desideratum ?

fHgifa ~, 1897.
This week we want to call
the attention of the public to
the excellence of the
AERMOTOR WlNDMlLLS
| for which we are the sole
agents for the Hawaiian Islands.
The merits of these wind
mills are so we'll known that
their repetition would be tire
some. II is sufficient to state
that the AermotorS will run
when all Others are at a stand
still. They are self-regulating,
requiring no attention what
ever beyond an occasional
drop of oil. There are more
Aermotors sold in the islands
than all other makes of wind
mills combined.
Among those who have re-
Gently purchased Aermotors of
us may be mentioned Minister
Damon, who has one at Moana-
lua; Minister Cooper one at his
new Manoa mansion: Paul
lSenberg is so we'll satisfied
with them that he has no less
than four at his Waialae place.
We can show an Aermotor
Windmill in actual operation
which pumps water 1000 feet
to an elevation of 100 feet.
There is no other that will do
this. We can furnish the Aer-
motor with pumping mills or
geared to run machinery. These
latter will perform all the work
of a one to four horse power
engine.
In connection with these
windmills we supply Gould's
and Krogh's triple acting
siphon and other pumps and
patent water tanks of 500,
1000, 1000, 1000, 5000 and
10000 gallons capacity.

An extremely interesting article
to the people ct these islands Is
that elsewhere reprinted from the
Australian Star, published at
Sydney, New South Wales, on the
Japanese in Queensland" Even
in the great continent OF the
Southern Hemisphere the danger
to Anglo-Saxon pre-eminence
from a strong inward tide OF
Japanese is recognized. This
fact will tend to show the world
how strong the cause OF nnpi IA
ton from the same source is in
this small group. The sympathy
expressed for this country by the
Australian writer quoted will find
response in many quarters. 1t
will be seen also that their selfish
interests make the sugar planters
of Queensland cold to the grand
project of united commonwealth
for all Australia, which would
give its component parts a broad
er nationality and greater security
for independence than they can
have under separate existence. Is
not this just the case of some of
the sugar planters of the Hawai-
ian Islands, in their opposition to
the country's admission into the
secure liberty of the American
commonwealth I?

No. 9 of the Papers of the Ha-
waiian Society, which has just
been printed, is one of the most
interesting yet issued. 1t is en-
titled, "Tbe Uncompleted Treaty
of Annexation of 1854" Professor
w. ID. Alexander being the author.
This piece of history is distinctly
in proof of Secretary Sherman's
statement to Congress, in effect
that the now pending treaty of
annexation does not indicate a
new policy, but the elimination of
a process that has been going on
for seventy years.

one woman,s Rendr VII

A young woman who lives near q
railway crossing. looking out of the
window the other day, saw a laborer
jump from one track to the other to
escape an approaching freight train.
He was apparently dazed by terror and
stood still. not seeing that an express
train was rushing down upon him. The
girl saw that before she could make
him understand his danger it would be
too late. She therefore threw up her
arms, shrieking wildly, "Helpl helpl
help" trusting to the impulse which
sends man on the instant to the re-
lief OF woman in distress. Pm COM
ing" shouted the laborer, springing
toward her in time to escape the engine
as 1t rushed past He stared back at
1t, and then at the woman crying and
laughing in the window, and. taking
on his hat and shaking hands. said.

An excellent bit Of advice to boy
who are training for bicycle riding
football. or baseball is given by Har
per's Round Table:
1T is a law Of athletic training thai
one cannot get into condition In 4
month or two. To prepare for a foot
ball game on Thanksgiving. one must
begin on the first Of December on the
year before-not the first of October of
that year. In other words, If you wish
to be a member of varsity team you
must keep yourself more or less in
training, not only during your four
years at college, but during the years
preceding your conege course. AS a
result, any sensible person will say
that although smoking may be in no
way harmful in itself, it is wiser and
more to your own interest, If you have
any outdoor or indoor athletic ambi.
tions, not to smoke until those ambi.
tons are satisfied.
when a man has been running and
breathes hard he is said to be 'winded.'
That is merely a term, however. The
fact of the case is that the action of the
heart is increased. This sends the
blood through his body much faster
than usual. and he is obliged to draw
air much more frequently into his
lungs in order to do the extra work of
purifying this blood which moves so
much faster than usual When you
smoke the nicotine in the tobacco has
an effect on your nerves, which in turn
affects the heart, not at all seriously.
perhaps. but at the same time, if you
'un shortly after smoking. there is stiu
more exaggerated action of the heart.
