One Of the most interesting articles
in the May Plyanters' Monthly, just
from the press, is the report of Prof.
Koebele on the scale pests TO be found
on Hawaiian fruit and ornamental
trees. The pests and their habits and
history are described in detail.
Another article of interest is selec-
lions from the report of ex-Commis-
sfoner of Agriculture Marsden protest
ing against the proposition to discon-
tinue the Government Nursery, which
is now maintained at on annual cost
of only about 81 800 a year.
From the hand of Editor H. NJ.

subject Of Agricultural Employment

HORTICULTURAL EDUCATION.

In referring yesterday to the great
advance made in the island of Jamaica,
through the careful and scientific edu-
cation of the people in agriculture and
horticulture, we quoted the fact that
the annual expense of the Experiment
tai Gardens of the island was $500
In estimating what we, in these ISL
ands, can afford to pay for conducting
similar gardens, we may compare the
relative incomes Of the two countries.
The value of the exports from Jamaica
for the year 1896, was about $4,000, 900.
Those of Hawaii were about $4,000
OOO Apparently Hawaii with it's 10000
population, is better able to incur the
expense of educating it's people in in
dustrial ways, than Jamaica is able to
educate it's three quarters of a million
of people with only little more than
half of the income OF Hawaii from for
eign sources.
1t is clearly, therefore, not question
of money which should provide thor
ough system of education, here, in in
dustrial matters. The money is here in
abundance.
The causes which operate to prevent
or retard this supremely important
system of education, are the same as
oDerate elsewhere. The island of ia
maica has had the advantage of being
governed by an authority which de-
ponds largely on the British Govern
ment for it's power, and not upon the
average political sentiment of the in
habitants of the island itself. 1t is the
work usually of the benevolent ty-
rant" who does things that the COM
munity does not approve of, because 1t
is ignorant, or without foresight.
The remarkable progress now made
in the United States in the creation
of Experimental Stations, is due large
Iy to the work of few men who con-
centrated their efforts upon Congress
and secured appropriations, in spite o.
the Indifference of the people. Twenty
years ago, the average farmer had nc
faith whatever in "bOok learning" on
the subject of horticulture and agri-
culture He held the professor III
contempt, and the majority Of the
farmers today believe the Stations are
only kid glove farms. But the intelli-
gent, scientific and yet practical work
of the professors" has secured the
support of the people. The average
farmers are beginning to think little
AS the Experiment Stations cost them
nothing directly, they are willing &c
give the professors" a chance. After
a century of agriculture, during which
the American writer's on the subject
have declared that the stupidity of the
farmers has been almost inconceiv-
able. there are symptoms of a new
birth, and the coming century will see
the cultivation of the soil taking its
place as one of the highest and most
scientific pursuits of man.
AS we have often said, the rapid de-
veIOpment of horticultural and agricul
tural education here, must be placed
ON the political necessities of the case
especially if we are not annexed a
once. for our political safety lies great
" in having a contented community.

AFTERNOON SESSION.

Rep. Loebenstein presented the re
port of the majority Of the Public
Lands Commute on Resolution 80, in
troduced by Rep. Kaai and dealing
with the cost of construction of wa
ter pipe system from lao valley TO Ka
hului. Rep. Kaai was in favor Of the
report, but made further recommends
ton that a bill relating to the matter,
be introduced. Further action was
postponed until today with the under
standing that Rep. Kaai bring up
suitable bill.
The recommendation of the commit

Postmaster General, superintendent OF
the Postal Savings Bank and Superin-
tendent of the Postal Money Order De-

stead Of $4,000 as in the bill, was
adopted.
The House took a recess OF ten min
utes to give time for the Attorney Gen

I found the Gloucester with Admiral
Cervera and q number of his officers
aboard, aud also a large number Of
wounded some IN frightfully man
gled condition. Many prisoners had
been killed on shore by the fire of the
Cubans. The Harvard came off and
requested Capt. Cotton to go in and
take off the crews of the Infanta Maria
Teresa and the Almirante Oquendo and
by midnight the Harvard had 976 pris-
oners aboard, great number OF them
wounded. For courage and dash there
is no parallel in history to the action

he knew, to absolute destruction, He

was one single hope-that was that the

out AS the Spanish admiral swung to
the westward the 12-inch shells from
the forward turret of the Iowa seemed
to strike him fair in the bow, and the
fight was spectacle. AS the squadron
came out in column, the ships beauti-
fully spaced as to distance and grad
ually increasing their speed to thirteen
knots, it was superb. The Iowa from
this moment kept up steady fire from
her heavy guns, heading all the time
to keep the Infanta Maria Teresa on
her starboard bow and hoping to ram
one of the leading ships. In the
meantime the Oregon Indiana,
Brooklyn and Texas were doing excel
lent work with their heavy guns. In a
very short space of time the enemy's
ships were all clear of the harbor
mouth, and it became evidently impos-
sible for the Iowa to ram either the
first or the second ship on account Of
their speed

"The range at this time was 1000

many bodies by the sharks inside the

ed by the blood from the wounded mix
ing in the water. My boats crew work
ed manfully and succeeded in saving
many Of the wounded from the burn
ing ship. One man, who will be rec
commended for promotion, clambered
up the side of the Vizcaya and saved
three men from burning to death. The
smaller magazines Of the Vlzcaya were
exploding with magnificent cloud eff
fects. The boats were coming along
side in a steady string and willing
hands were helping the lacerated Span
ish oflcers and sailors onto the Iowa's
quarterback. All the Spaniards were
absolutely without clothes. Some had
their legs torn of by fragments OF
shells. Others were mutilated in ev-
cry conceivable way.

the fire and in few moments the
Spanish cruisers were mass of flames

down, the Teresa flying white flag at
the fore.
Enemy'S Crews Jump Overheard.
"The crews of the enemy's. ships
stripped themselves and began jump

magazines began to explode. Mean
time the Brooklyn and the Cristobal
Colon were exchanging compliments
in lively fashion at apparently long
range, and the Oregon, with her loco

Colon, also paying attention to the Viz

es dead men were lying in the blood.
Five poor chaps died ON the way to the
ship. They were afterward buried with
military honors from the Iowa. Some
examples of heroism, or more properly
devotion to discipline and duty, could
never be surpassed. One man on the
lost Vizcaya had his left arm almost
shot off just below the shoulder. The
fragments were hanging by a small
piece of skin. But he climbed unas-
sisted over the side and saluted as If
on visit of ceremony. Immediately
after him came a strong-hearted sailor
whose left leg had been shot off above
the knee. He was hoisted on board the
Iowa with tackle, but never a whim-
per came from him. Gradually the
mangled bodies and naked we'll men
accumulated until 1t would have been
almost difficult to recognize the Iowa
as a United States battleship. Blood
was all over her usually white quarter
deck, and 272 naked men were being
supplied with water and food by those

Receiving Capt. Eulate.
"Finally came the boats with Capt.
Eulate, commander of the Vizcaya, for
whom a chair was lowered over the
side, as he was evidently wounded. The
captains guard of marines was drawn
up on the quarterback to salute him,
and / stood waiting to welcome him.
AS the chair was placed on the deck the
marines presented arms. Capt. Eulate
slowly raised himself in the chair, sa-
luted me with grave dignity, unbuckled
his swordbelt and, holding the hilt of
the sword before him, kissed it rever
emily, with tears in his eyes, and then
surrendered 1t to me. OF course de-
clined to receive his sword, and as the
crew of the Iowa saw this they cheered
like wild men. AS I started to take
Capt. Eulate into the cabin to let the
doctors examine his wounds the maya
zines on board the Vizcaya exploded
with tremendous burst of flame. Capt.
Eulate, extending his hands, said:
'Adios, Vizcaya. There goes my beau
tiful ship, captainp And SO we passed
on to the cabin, where the doctors
dressed his three wounds. In the mean
time thirty officers of the Vizcaya had
been picked up, beside 272 of her crew.
