when she was tested In the Delaware
River near Chester. in March, 1890.
Three loaded shells were then dis
charged, and so little faith did the
naval officers have in either the secur-
ity or capability Of the vessel, that
only those who were obliged to remain
on board to work the guns staid any
where near the vesuvius. The COM
mittee and other officers who were to
watch the proceedings drew on about
a mile distant on a tug. The first pro-
jectile discharged weighed $40 pounds,
and 1t went over 200 yards further
than one mile, in IL seconds; the sec
ond projectile weighed 504 pounds, and
went a mile and $50 yards in IL 7-lO
seconds; the third projectile weighed
the same as the second, and went 400
yards more than a mile in IL 3-4 Sec

explode ten seconds after 1t sunk be-
meath the surface Of the water. 1t
worked successfully, and threw great

Of fully 200 feet. The second cartridge
was arranged SO as to explode FIVE
seconds after impact, and 1t did, with
similar results. The third cartridge
was timed to 60 of on impact with the
water, and SO well was the primer ar

PRACTICAL TRIAL Of vESUvIUS

The performance Of the so-called
dynamite-gun vessel Vesuvius at San
tiago has revived popular interest In
this little war-ship, which has been
looked upon by the experts with more
or less suspicion ever since she was
launched. Now that the, vesuvius has
taken part in actual warfare. using
shells loaded with guncotton and
throwing them successfully against
the enemy's stronghold, all the objec-
tons made by the naval officers Of the
old school have been proved ground
less: and SO far as being effective in
a bombardment Of shore batteries Is
concerned, the Vesuvius must be pro-
nounced a success. The term "dyna-
mite" as applied to the vessel. is a
misnomer, for the Vesuvius never has
thrown any dynamite. She was built
as a harbor-defense vessel intended to
throw shells loaded with guncotton.

Hawaiian Arts.

There was an interesting meeting Of
the Armstrong Industrial Institute in
the High school building at 1880 yes

discussion was the revival of the an
cient Hawaiian arts, such as the max
ing of mats. fans, nets, etc, and the
matter of obtaining from this the basis
Of instruction in numbers, writing and
language. Col. Parker kindly offered
valuable advice, and each teacher pres

be held for the purpose Of outlining a

FOR her FATHER
Mrs. R. M. Bell Making a
Search in Honolulu.
Was Taken from Here to the Coast
When q Young Child-Crew
Up In q Convent,

Mrs. r. NJ. Bell, Of San Diego, CAL,
Is at the Queen hotel. This lady is a
half Hawaiian, with a history most
romantic IL not altogether sad. Strange
as 1t may seem she is here looking for
a father and mother whom she has not
seen nor heard of since she was a
babe in arms.
Mrs. Bell is now Al years of age.
Her early life was spent in Catholic
convent in Southern California. or
her antecedents she knew absolutely
nothing. She married at San Fran
cisco and ten years ago moved to San
Diego to live. Her husband is a bus
mess man there.
After waiting so long Mrs. Bell three
years ago undertook a trip to the con-
vent in which she was educated, for
the express purpose of learning some
thing concerning her history. She deg
manded the information and received
what there was to give.
The Sisters told here that her father
had brought her there when she was
a babe scarcely two years of age, and
had provided for her education. He
then went away never to return. Her
fathers name was Benjamin +. Cru
ard, an American of French descent,
then Mormon missionary at some
point near Honolulu. in the Hawaiian
Islands. Her mother, the Sisters said,
was a native Hawaiian but whether
alive at the time or not they were un-
able to say. There was something
said about a stepmother who was
cruel. but the Sisters could not re-
| member what 1t was.
Mrs. Bell returned home and for
three years has brooded over her
strange history. Was her father still
alive? The Sisters thought he had re-
turned TO Honolulu. Might she not
have brothers or sisters in the Pacific
Islands. She resolved to find out. She
came down by the Alameda last week
and has since been searching dill
gently for some traces of her lost peo-
pie. Senator Waterhouse Is looking
up the records at Laie, and other ka-
maainas appealed to are trying to re-
member something Of Gruard.
Mrs. Bell spoke somewhat hope
lessly of the matter when seen at the
Queen last night. Still she is deter
mined, and has money and leisure TO
follow up her search. She relies a
great deal upon old residents for the
information required.
That Mrs. Bell is part Hawaiian is
| readily to be seen. No one here would
fail to note the strong resemblance to
Hawaiian ladies at first sight In that
part OF her story she was undoubtedly
correctly Informed.
The chief scout OF the United States
army is Frank Gruard, who Is well
known to at least one man in Homo
lulu. Gruard gives his birthplace as
Honolulu and has every appearance
OF being a half-caste Hawaiian. II Is
possible that he is a brother of Mrs.
Bell. This Frank Gruard is n wonder
fully fearless chap. The night before
the battle at Wounded Knee between
the Indians of the Sioux tribes and
Col. Forsyth's command, Gruard was
in the camps Of the ghost dancers for
hours. Because he urged them to ac-
cept peace and give up their arms he
was threatened with assassination
many times and that he escaped alive
was considered marvel.

TOPICS OF The DAY.

Several readers have asked us why
the 80 o'clock" gun of the U. S. S
Bennington is being fred, although
there is no admiral here. We un-'
derstand that in time of war, the 8
o'clock gun is fred as signal to
the special guards and pickets
detailed to watch movements OF the
enemy in regard to surprises by tor
pedoes and other modes OF attack,
and that this rule is necessarily car
ried out, wherever an American war
vessel is stationed, even if there is
no likelihood of an enemy appear
ing there. We are all pleased to
hear the blooming" of the cannon
every evening, but we think it would
be wiser in the interests OF Hawaii
to proclaim neutrality and ask the
Bennington to get her gun off at
Manila, Havana, or some other place
worth smoking"

other hirelngs of the Dole free
hooters. Mr.. Garter makes no claim
to have Influenced public opinion in
the United States. He did not go
there with fuss and feathers or
blasts Of trumpets. He was not the
guest of the nation, and
he did not subscribe public
ly to the Maine Fund. He simply
went as a true Hawaiian patriot,
who loves his adopted country and
its People, who call it their own.
The INDEPENDENT extends no thanks
to Mr.. Carter, who only did what he
considered his duty. To Mr.. Dole,
however, we offer the glad" hand
for the services which he rendered
the people opposed to the annex
alton Of Hawaii, through his ill
advised, ill-timed appearance in Nc
Kinley's capital. Carter may have
done nothing, as the Advertiser
says; Dole certainly did help to
knock annexation in the head-in
spite Of swelling the Maine fund
with the taxpayers money.
