one OF the new cycling novelties Just intro
duced might he called n sort OF suspension tire
The tire is said to weigh only one pound more
than the regular pneumatic tire, and some of
the virtues claimed for II are such that II il
can fill the bin. other tire-makers may as well
prepare to adapt themselves to a new order
of things. Several OF the tire-makers have seen
the invention, and at this writing none Of them
have announced their intention to divert from
their beaten path. The tire is not pneumatic
and consequently does not have to be blown up.
For the same reason, it Will not puncture There
is an outer layer Of soft rubber, which Is so
arranged that the claim is made for 1t that it
Will not throw mud up the back of the man or
woman on the wheel. There Is semi-circuar
laminated wooden rim, and the open part
is drawn a rubber daframe. secured by expan-
sion rings from side to side of the hollow wood.
The inner rim. which rests the rubber dia-
frame and 10 which the spokes are attached.
Is about as large as carpenters pencil. The
maker says that the tire will prove to be Just
as resilient as the pneumatic tire. and that it
Is practically lndestructible. Even II the outer
shoe does wear out II can be replaced at small
cost

Another inventive genius has patented BIZ
cycle with drop-seat arrangement, for which
he claims wondrous things. AS a military wheel
he says that 1t will prove to be just the thing,
while for women riders IL will enable women
TO ride a diamond frame without tho usual in
conveniences and awkwardness. The upper part
Of the top bar slants decidedly toward the seat
post In order to allow the dropping and raising
Of the post When the seat IL lowered the rider
can reach the saddle by simply straddlng the
wheel. Then he puts his weight upon the ped
ais and. turning the left handle grip, he is shot
up into the air and can pedal off When he
wishes 20 dismount the handle grip Is turned
and the seat drops. allowing the rider to dis
mount, rather push back from the wheel with
his feet on the ground The wheel has been
shown TO several prominent military men in the
district with the idea of having the machine
adapted for military use. In a skirmsh the
soldier could allow the seat post to drop. and
then with his feet on the ground he could FIRE
at the enemy. In case of retreat. he could turn
the magic grip and be off In the other direction
In short order There is also an invisible plunger
brake attached which can be worked from the
right handle grip.

Rev, Irl Hicks has the following
prophecy to offer for this month
September enters as a regular storm
period expires. The moon is at perigee
on the L approaching her first quarter
and greatest south declination on the 3
and 4. Many squalls and heavy gales
are probable about the / as the seq uel
to the last August disturbance. Rising
pressure and change to cooler may fol
low briefly, but on and touching the 4
aud 5 storm conditions will again trav-
erse the country from west to east, and
be followed by strong winds, shifting to
northwesterly, with change 10 much
period central on the 10, the date OF full
moon on the equator, We indica tie a
longer period OF disturbance than ordi-
nary. We now are nearing the center OF
earth's autumnal equinox, the planet
Jupiter is in conjunction with the sun
on the IL, at which time we also enter
the disturbed period OF Mercury. From
the 10 to Is, moor will pass from the
celestial equator TO her extreme north
poiat in the heavens. Tn e~refore, from
about the 10 warm winds will flow from
the equator northward, the barometer
will fall and heavy storms accompanied
by rain and thunder will cross the
country on aud touching the 10 to ID.
A sharp fall in temperature, severe in
the lar north, may take place about the
IL to IA, but conditions call for renewed
storms about the 16 to Is, keeping a
state of threatening, unsettled weather
throughout the Mercury period and into
the Vulcan period central with earth's
equinox on the %. Storms of decided
energy are probable from 81 to "a and
new noon on the equator and near
perigee from 20 to 20 indicates that
warm weather and many atmospheric
disturbances are to be expected from
about the 20 to near the close OF the
north. There is no reason to fear any
thing ont OF the ordinary this September
as upon the whole it will be a warm
and dry month over most parts OF the
country. Some vicious storms will
strike, but prudent readers will foresee

mating intelligence they have discard
ed inferior commodities and adopted In
place thereof something that was supe-
rior. These changes kept taking place
until finally gold and silver became the
commoditie~ that were recognized by
the people Of most countries as being
the best for Ise as money. Sociological
transition Is constant. Change Is the
natural order Of things, and changes
come about naturally and are therefore
effected easily, if the natural process Ia
allowed to go on undisturbed. Trou-
blous friction ensues only when there In

In our WI day the ~stagecoach has
been supplanted by the steam railroad,
and ~stagecoaches have practically be-
come a thing of the past. The tallow
dip was succeeded by lamps filled with
burning fluid or oil, and lamps by illn-
minatipg gas, and gas by electricity.
These and many other changes were az
complished with no serious disturbance
whatever, and so it would be with con-
modities used as money in the absence
of governmental obstruction. There
would be no threatening money ques-
tion in this country today, endangerirg
the continuit.s end perpetuity of ill
business activity, If the United States
was not engaged in the banking bust
ness.
Among civilized people the days Of
usefulness of silver as money, except in
subsidiary forms, are numbered, and
silver is going out of use rs surely as
have the s~tagecoach and the tallow dip,
and for exactly the same reason-civi-
lization has outgrown the conditions
which necessitated it's use. M money
has even come into use at the behest of
government or because of statutory en-
actments, but solely because Of reccg-
nized ability to perform the functions
of money.-Austin W.. Wright in Sound

RESEARCH CLUB.
Paper on Single Tax Question Read
by Mr.. Farmer.

The discussion of the Single Tax
question was taken up by the Young
Mems Research Club, which met with
Rev. and Mrs. d. p. Brine last even
ing Edward Farmer, a teacher at Ka-
lihi-aina read the paper and the ques-
tion was afterward briefly reasoned by
those present, including Rev. d. p.
Brnie, Tax Assessor Jonathan Shaw,
Wood of Kamehameha, f. Benner, Mr..
Case. DR.. High, j. T. Crowley, Ed
Towse. William Travis. Charles Bon,
w. j. Cranwell and others.
The single tax was rather unpopular
with the lXoung debaters, Many adj
mitted that the theory was good but
that it was not at all practical.
Though many instances were cited in
these islands both for and against the
idea, the single tax question was con-
sidered in a much broader sense.
The club will meet with Rev. Mr..
Brine next month, probably on some
Tuesday evening. Professor Wood will
be the author of the paper, which has
for its subject The Probabilities of
the Japanese and Chinese Races Dom
mating in the West" The recent Jap
anese difficulties in Hawaii will be in
volved in the discussion.
