WOOL MADE FROM LIMESTONE,
Chemical Process Which Turns
Rocks to snowy FIeeces.

Rocks to Snowy FIeeces.
Wool from limestone is the latest, ac-
cording to the Chicago Chronicle. c. C.
Hall, chemist for the Union Steel Com
pany, at Alexander, Ind, has just ap-
piled for the patents upon process where
by he is enabled to make the softest
whitest wool from the fintiest, toughest
limestone.
The remarkable character of the in
vention is better appreciated when it is
said that a firm in Boston, one of the
best-known wool weavers in the country
is making experiments in converting this
wool into clothing. 3t
Water has no effect upon this arti-
fetal WOOL and fire will not harm it,
Another point in its favor as a wool for
winter clothing lies in the fact that it
is one of the best nonconductors known
1t is impervious to heat and cold, and
for that reason would make most de-
sirable Undertaking for the Kloudikers
1t could not be worn in summer, as it
would retain all of the heat OF the body
and this would become intolerabe.
But the greatest point in favor of
wool made from rock lies in the claim
that it will outwear the sheep product
1t is TO bring out all of these qualities
that the Boston firm is now lending
every energy and expense to still further
carry this discovery into the mercantile
world. Once converted into cloth h
would find all kinds of uses. Having
the noncombustible qualities of asbestos,
the weaving qualities of wool. the soft
ness and warmth of eamel's hair and the
insulating properties of silica fibre, it is
difficult to set any point AT which the
new fabric would not reach. Theatre
curtains for fire protection, lining for
fine garments, carpets and for wrapping
conduits, hot and cold water and air
pipes, packing engines and deadening
sound all come within the scope of its
possibilities.
Hall made the discovery rather by ac-
cideut. He was making some tests of
stone needed at the Union steel mills
and often used in iron and steel pro-
cesses. He happened upon a limestone
which, when subjected to the tests, acted
unexpectedly. The usual course Of stone
under the conditions he was submitting
1t to is to become quicklime, but in this
instance it ran into lava, To all out
ward appearance the stone was common
building block.
This rock is found in inexhaustible
beds in this county and in other Sec
tons of the Central States. The molten
mass was very piiahle, like glass when
it is in the same state. Glass may be
strung out like silk. and 1t has been
converted into dress goods, from which
Queen Victoria has a suit and one of
the leading actresses also has a costume.
Hall conceived the idea of carrying his
experiment still further. The machinery
which he constructed Is very compli-
Gated. This white lava was subjected
to chemical baths and then to a drawing
out process, by which it was converted
into the finest and most pliable wool,
white as snow and as soft as. down.

Gus race of East Indians whose in

that Mr. 7. FL. Davies, or any 9th

CUBA INTERPRETERS.

1t was the fear of few of tn,
cool headed annexationists il
Washington, last July, that the
Cuban matter would, in some form
or another, retard the ratification
of the annexation treaty. Thi:
fear was reflected in this paper, ant
as might be expected, it was alb
used for entertaining such anti
annexation sentiments"
1t now appears that these fears
are, unfortunately, realized. The
intense anger of many members OF
Congress towards Spain, owing TO
her cruel conduct of the Cuban
war, and their desire that the Pres
ident should interfere on the
grounds of humanity, has. led to
some GOODNESS of feeling towards
the President and a disposition to
refuse aid to him in his Hawaiian
policy, until he deals vigorously
with Spain. This feeling is one of
the strong Inducements of politi-
cal thought in Washington.
This disposition towards the
President has nothing whatever to
do with the merits of the Hawaiian
question. Men may refuse present
support to his Hawaiian policy,
who believe in it. Men who be-
lieve in annexation do not believe
that these Islands are now put up
at auction, and the auctioneer is
now shouting: going, going, last
call" The new and enlarged for
elgn policy OF the United States Is
of slow growth, too slow to suit our
own wishes. The incident of a diff
ference of opinion in Washington
about the Cuban affair, may retard
for the moment, the movements of
that policy, but probably, for no
long period. At least, we can hope
it will not. To believe otherwise,
is to believe that the pronounced
policy of so years was not favored
by the body of the American peo-

HAWAIIAN RELIEF FOR CUBA.

The appalling sufferings of the
Cuban patriots is clearly and mo-
derately described in the Wash
ington Star, by Mr.. Chas. NJ. Pep
per. who was in these Islands last
September, and is now a cores
pondent in Cuba.
He writes from Guinness, one of
the most attractive spots on the
Island. The place, contained dur
ing the year 1897, $4,000 people,
of whom 5000 were fugitives
driven into the place by Weyler's
order. The number of deaths in
this place during the same year,
1897, was 5000. To appreciate
the fearful destruction of life
from famine and disease, one has
only to think of the loss of 1900
of the inhabitants of Honolulu, in
one year, from this cause.
The men who still live in the
disturbed districts, are so feeble
and sick from hunger and dis
aaSa tbaU ono NOT fir fop rUon1-
Even the reversal of Weyler's de-
cree leaves the people helpless.
Their little homes are DESTROYED,
and their crops are gone. Every
where there is want, sickness,
death.
As every man, woman and child
on these Islands owing to the
prices of sugar has profited di-
rectly or indirectly, out of the ter
rible misfortunes of the Cubans.
it seems as if it would only be
fair, just and generous to recog-
nize it is some special manner.
The holding of a Fair, on behalf
of the Cubans, should bring out
some substantial aid. We surely
are under some sort of obligations

THE AGE OF MAN.

The Social Science Club, on Monday
evening, made another desperate at
tempt to fix the age of man on the
earth. 1t is understood that the club
refuses to attempt to fix the age OF
the modern woman on earth. The
question of the age of man is extreme
ly important to us, in our mixed poll
tical affairs. At least it is more i'm
portant than a knowledge of the curl
Gus racial relations of our mixed popu-
lation. Probably we cannot estimate
what these relations are, until the
date of the birth of primeval man is
fixed. The Scriptures declare that as
for man his days are as the grass
A careful study of the age of grasses
may lead up to better knowledge
of the exact date when the typical
monkey led out the typica, man, and
turned him loose on the earth. This
date may be found on the monkey
almanac. Failing this, census should
be taken and primeval man should be
compelled to fill up, under oath, the
blanks respecting age.

There are 42S families connected
with this congregation. These 42S
homes, at which have called at least
once in the year, are scattered all the
way from Kalihi valley to Diamond
Head. | do not include in this list any
Portuguese, unless members of the
church, nor any of the many young
men, whose friendship l value, who
live at boarding houses or hotels. In
the months past there has been times
of perplexity, days of difficulty and
discouragem yet everywhere and
always has our Father guided his
church, and we are profoundly thank
full to Him. Permit me to express to
y
your patience, for your quick, efficient
and steadfast cooperation in the work
which our Lord has committed to us,
and to which we stand mutually pledg-
ed. May the Holy Spirit guide each
one of us into holier living, and into
finer, fairer service for Christ and his

not favor the policy of refusing
self-rule to the natives which the
British nation accepts without re-
seryation, in spite of the past elo-
auence of Edmund Burke, in de-
nouncing its injustice, cruelty and
piracy. One of the strange
phases of our Lilliput insular life
is, that there are educated, intelli-

Great Britain would instantly dis

DR.. Evans, the American dentist,
who recently died in Paris, was one of
the most remarkable men of modern
times. We publish in another column
a few notes regarding his association
with Royalties. That a dentist, and
not trained politician became the
advisor and confidant of so many dis
tinguished people was due to the fact
that he had lots of common sense and
unselfish feelings which brought him
very near to men and women in high
station. When the Empress Eugene
fed from Paris, after the battle of
Sedan, she found no French subject
on whose integrity and skill she could
rely, in effecting an escape to England
as upon the American tooth doctor.

ton of what force of character is in

Ohe Ranch InteresteJ.
The Supreme Court handed down two
decisions yesterday In the equity suit
brought by one faction OF the HiIo
Portuguese Mill Co.. headed by ]. $
Canario against the faction headed by
Jose G. SerraO concerning the legality
of an election which turned on the
question of the ownership OF three
shares of stock. the Court dismisses
the appeal on one point and sustains il
on the second point. The two aues-
tons at issue were decided by the Cir
cult Judge of the Fourth Circuit at
Hilo. The Court ordered an election
to be held on a certain date and de-
clared that the three shares Of stock in
question were null as held by Nuno
Fernandez and could not be counted.
The Supreme Court holds that the
order issuing from the Circuit Court
for holding an election was not wrong
The Court was so directed by the SUI
preme Court. This portion o. the ap-
peal was dismissed.
On the second point the Supreme
Court holds that the Circuit Court had
no power to find that the three shares
were illegally sold and held. The costs
of appeal are divided.
Decision was also made yesterday in
the suit of the KaneOhe Ranch Com
pany against All On over a title to an
easement The exceptions TO the Cir
cult Court decision are overruled. The
Court holds that a title to an easement
is title to real estate within the mean
ing of the statute.
