\ WELL THAT is REGULATED BY
THE CLOCK.
Manager F,airchild of Kealia Planta-
tion Describes a Curiosity in the
Flow of Artesian Water.

A most curious phenomenon has
been observed in the flow of an arte-
sian well on Kealia plantation, Kauai.
The water has regular variations in
its flow. being lowest at o'clock in
the morning. gradually rising until Il
attains its greatest flow at . O'Clock
in the afternoon, and then as gradu-
ally falling until S o'clock i'm the
morning.
Manager George IL. Fairchid of the
plantation thus describes the peculiar
phenomenon:
"The top of the pipe is 10 feet above
sea level At s feet there is a flow of
about 100000 gallons in twenty-four
hours. BY adding ) feet more of
pipe the flow stops. We have had this
extra feet of pipe on top of the
well for a month or more. waiting for
extra pipe to conduct the water to
the mill where it is to be used. We
have noticed a peculiar action of this
column of water. and ! have been un-
able to find any explanation of it.
If the publication of the facts by
The Star will lead to an explanation,
| will be very much gratified.
"The column of water in this ) foot
additional pipe placed to prevent the
flow, at s o'clock in the morning is
at its lowest point one and "A half in
ches below the top of the pipe. Then
it rises until at noon it begins TO
flow over the pipe. The flow increas-
es until o'clock when there is quite
a flow From that time it gradually
falls, until at II o'clock at night there
is a very slight flow. and this ceases at
/ o'clock in the morning. the water
gradually falling until it reaches the
lowest point at s O'Clock, when it be
gins to rise again.
1T has been suggested that this
change in flow is due to the tides. or
to the rotation of the earth, or to the
influence of the sun. 1t is interest
ing and I should like satisfactory
explanation"
Representative McCandless saws re-
garding this phenomenon that in his
experience where an artesian well is
influenced by the tides. the water new
er rises above sea level.

CATTLE G MAUI ENGLAND NY MANILA FLAG MAY NOT mOA STRANGE PHENOMENON SECURE PORTFOLIOS NOW
HUNDREDS CATTLE AFFLICTED
WITH BLINDNESS.
An Intestinal Worm has Attacked the
Horses on Some of the Plantations
Large Numbers are Dying.

Cattle on Maui are suffering from a
scourge which it is feared will infict
great loss on cattle owners. For some
time past cattle, especially dairy cows
and those in pasture, have been going
blind.
At the instance of Representative
Pogue and Senator Baldwin, Dr. Sam
uel Karr, veterinarian and officer for
the prevention of cruelty to animals.
went to Maui last week and made an
investigations About 200 head of cat
tie were reported to him as having
gone blind from the scourge, whatev-
er il is. Several of the animals were
killed and the affected eyes brought
here for examination. While he has
not fully completed his examination,
DR.. Karr is convinced that the dis
ease is that which is known as sta
phyloma, tumor of the cornea. 1t
is of a whiteish color and runs its
course producing blindness, in short
time. There are number OF etfcient
causes for the disease, a blow or the
sting of IA fly or other insect has been
known to produce it. From the pre-
valence of the disease. DR.. karr is in
clined to believe that in the present
case it is due to the sting of fly or
insect, though he was not able to
find any fly the sting of which is
known to produce such a disease. 1t
is the prevailing opinion among the
owners of the affected cattle that the
| disease is caused by the sting of an
insect. The disease does not affect
the general health of the cattle, but of
course after they become blind they
are nat capable of finding good grazing
spots. The whole matter will be sci
entifcally investigated
Horses on some of the plantations
on Maui are dying from strangylus
armatus. an intestinal worm. Seven
teen horses on one plantation died
within few days. Deaths among
horses from the same cause are re-
ported from several places.
The worm matches from the egg in
the intestines of the horse and then
finds its way into all the tissues, lit
orally eating the animal alive. DR.
Karr thinks that by care in feeding
the horses and by the use of medicine
for those affected. this scourge ear
be fully coped with.

HAS 4 CENTURY OLD CLAIM ON
THE PHILIPPINES.
Japan Declares Neutrality-Will Send
Cruisers to Watch the Naval Strug-
gle at Manila-Count Ito Resigns.

YOKOHAMA, April 30.-The Japa-
nese government will formally declare
it's neutrality at an early date, though
there can be no doubt as to the true
direction of popular sympathy. The
vernacular press entertains no doubt
as to the ultimate outcome of the
struggle, though its comments on the
phases of the latter cannot be recon-
mended on the score of their sapiency.
Currency has been given TO a state
ment from an unknown quarter, tnat
in the event of the seizure of the Phil
ippines by the United States, they will
forthwith be handed over to England.
The raison de'etre of this report is
that England already has prior
claim by virtue of Spain's failure to
pay the ransom demanded by England
when the Islands were restored to
Spain in 1864. The japanese govern
ment will probable dispatch three war
ships to watch the progress of the
naval struggle near Manila, and also.
1t may be inferred. to guard japanese
interests in Formosa. The war has
already had an appreciable effect up
on japanese trade, and in many cas-
es, foreign firms here have been noti-
fed to suspend their purchases of
silk. except the cheaper qualities, for
Europe.
The present Cabinet succeeded in
obtaining certain Chinese concessions
which will doubtless strengthen its
hand when called upon to face a hos
tile party in the Diet The Chinese
government has given Japan assuran-
ces that it will not cede the Province
of Fuh-kien to any other power; also
that when japanese subjects enter in
to the mining industry into the inte-
rior of China, in partnership with Chi
nese. China will extend to the former
all the rights and privileges granted to
the subjects of other foreign powers.
Moreover in the event of a bad rice
crop in Japan, China will suspend the
law prohibiting the export of rice,
and grant facilities for the importa-
| tion of the cereal into Japan.
The only recent political change of
Importance is the resignation of Ba-
ron Ito, Minister of Agriculture and
| Commerce. whose portfolio has been
handed to Baron Kaneko.
The principal clauses of the new
Russo-Japanese convention said to
have been already signed, have exclu-
| sive reference to Korea. and in all the
circumstances, may be taken as fairly
satisfactory to Japan.
There has been another recrudes-
cence of coolie outrages in Kobe.
The unpopularity of the Ito Cabi-
net is on the increase. 1t is complain
ed of it, that its foreign policy is fee
bic, and that it shrinks from taking
any active measures against the do
| ings of Russia, France and Germany
! in China.

SITUATION IN MANILA.
Spanish Planting Mines and Torpe-
does in the lIarbor.

The near presence of the American
squadron to the Spanish possessions

Mail, has aroused the authorities TO
IA sense of their responsibility, and,
in accordance with telegraphic in
structions from Madrid, the Spanish
naval and military authorities have
been busy in their endeavors to forti-
fy Manila. Mines have been laid in
the harbor and torpedoes kept in reu-
diness. The extent of the improve
ment in the Notifications, however.
only amounts to placing about half
a dozen six inch guns in position.

large sums are being offered for iuu-
nitions of war.
Our information from an excellent
source, continues the HongkOng con
temporary, is that as soon as the
American men of war appear i'm the
harbor of Manila both the priests and
the mercantile community will de-
mand the capitulation of the city.
There is a perfect understanding be-
tween the priests and the United
States government.
In the event of the refusal of the
Spanish authorities to surrender, the
rebels will play an important part
At the present moment there are 5000
