WOOD THAT WONT BURN.
Juices Forced Out. and Their Places
Taken by Chemicals.

From the New York Journal.
The business Of making wood freprOof
is growing. The process is not a cheap
one at present, but FIRE underwriters he.
lieve that in few years it viii have
iegsened to such an extent that laws will
be passed prohibiting the use of any but
fire-proof wood in New York buildings. Ii
such legislation were in existence. the
number of fires would come down 10
minimum and the hremen would have an
easy life.
The process of fireproofng very much
resembles emba Inning The wood is first
relieved of its saps ana juices. which are
really its blood and preservation fluid
is injected to tak heir place. The planks
t. be fteproufe, are pat into a sort OF
of boiler or digester. This is closed and
steam at low pressure is run into the
digester and the wool parboed for from
one to fifty hours This is to soften and
loosen the dry saps or juices in the fiber
After the steaming process powerful
vacuum pump draws the saps and Jul es
from the wood, leaving a finely divided
cellular structure.
Next, the hrepro2fng solution is pump
ed into the chamber the absorption and
saturaton being assisted by the, partial
vacuum. A pressure of from eighty to
200 pounds a square inch is next aDpued
complete. After draining off the excess
solution the wood is withdrawn and thor
oughiy kiln or air dried. with the result
that the interior cellular wood structure
is left filled with minute crystals of fire
proofng salts.
In a series of tests conducted by fire
underwriters small sllvers of various va
rieties of wood We're taken from the in
terror and exterior of treated samples.
When held in an alcohol flame the slivers
would char and glow as long as the flame
was applied, but in all cases. upon the re-
rnoval of the. fame. the glow would imme-
diately die out. Combustion was MOI

the flame was applied. The charred sur

it was with difficulty that the sample

The same test was applied to samples

THE OCEANS CHASTITY GRIST.
Ten Tramp Steamers Never Heard
FrOm-I50 Break Shafts.
From Ainslie's Magazine.


From Ainslie's Magazine
During the gales of last winter, un-
equalled in the records of the photographic
office for force and persistency more than
twenty tramp steamers were lost Ten
were never heard from after leaving port.
More than $50 broke their shafts. In over
a score of instances they also lost then
propelers. and were saved from being
overwhelmed by sea anchors. whish held
their heads to the combers, and a liberal
use of oil, which smoothed down the crests.

British ports. which, in pleasant weather,

We're thirty-five days and forty days
breasting the great winter gales Two
of them rolled their fumes out and an
other spent fifteen days either attempting
to make her way through the crested bill
lows or Wellowing in the trough. Cliff
like waves, breaking in caiaracts over her
weather bow, or leaping about amidships,
carried away all her hfeboats. She rolled
at en- angle of nearly forty-hve degrees,
the rolling period being twelve or fifteen
gether. During these fifteen days the
weary skipper found, when he had a
chance 10 make an observation. that the
ship had made 40 knots leeway In this
tumultuous period very few of the officers
were able to get any sleep, except the
merest cat-naps The food was hardly
fit TO eat through bad cooking the cook
being unable TO work properly and the
water impregnated by the searching brine
from invading seas and spoondrift did not
do much toward quenching thirst"

Democ ratio Row In Nebraska.

Lincoln, Neb., July 1.-THE fusion
of State conventions, the Populists,
Democratic and Silver Republican, met
here today to nominate full State
ticket. Before the conventions were
called to order, conditions existed that
threatened to result in bolt in the
Populist convention of some of the
largest county delegations and pro-
tracted session was looked for. At
present the Populsts control every
State Office except the lieutenant gov
ernorship, occupied by Silver Republic
can, and the Attorney Generalship by
Democrat. The Democratic leaders
have been asking for more equitable
division, but a strong disposition was
shown by the Populists to insist that
every nominee by Populist. This,
they claimed, was no more than fair
on account of the defeat Of Charles A.
Towne in the Democratic convention
This feeling was so keen in fact that
the Custer delegation had instructions
to bolt unless every nominee was a
Populist. A brisk fight was also look
ed for over the nomination for Cover
nor. Opposition to Governor Poynter's
denomination apparently crystallized
during the day on John o. Yerser.

KIOndike Clean Up
Will Reach Millions

Vancouver, B. c., July 9.-The
steamer Clutch arrived today with gold
dust estimated at $4,000. There were
thirty-three passengers, among them
j. l.. Bell, assistant gold commissioner
of Dawson. Bell states that II is rath-
Ell early to estimate the gold yield, but
he would Judge from present indica-
tons that 1t would be from 10000, 900
to s25,000,00O. II will certainly be
much larger than last year. Sulphur
creek will be the only disappointing
stream. Other creeks were showing up
betters than expected. Bell says Skag-
way is failing fast, owing to the bonded
privileges given to Canada, and that
the Skagway Council has memorialized
the United States Government to dis
continue the privilege and save Skag-
way from obliteration.
Bell reports that J. Struthers, in his
office. was sentenced to three months
In Jail or $500 fine for accepting a
bride, but the department was now
purified. Bell says the Indian river ex-
element has broken out afresh and all
quartz claims have been staked over
as placers. Everything is double
staked, as sand running. It is said $50

ore OF the Treasure Mountain from two
to six feet deep.
J. Stables, member of Parliament for
Cassiar, another passenger, says that
Atlin is very prosperous, splendid
wash-ups being obtained from hydrau-
lies and creeks. The cleanup will be
from 81 900 900 to 100000.

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-09-21

Staid Lahaina has had it's sensation
this week.. 1t was at first thought to
be murder, but thorough investigation
by police and health authorities elected
facts that pointed strongly to suicide
The victim of his own hand was a Jap
anese named Nshida, and the cause
of the deed was trouble with his wife.
The dead body of the Jap was found
in the sea close to the shore. Around
the neck was a rope and about a yard
down the rope was a piece of shirt, or
something Of the kind, in which a rock
had evidently been tied. The Japanese
had gone out in boat to deep water
and jumped over, the tide bringing the
body in again.
The first theory was murder, but this
was exploded by a number of circum-
stances brol ght out during the inquiry.
A post norton revealed no bruises of
any sort, whereas if the case had been
one of murder there would have been
bruises almost without a doubt. 1t
was also shown that Nishida had had a
serious quarrel with his wife, of whom
he was exceedingly jealous, and that
The suicide is believed to have occur
red about ] o'clock Wednesday morn
ing.
Nishida was a Lanai Japanese and
was not We'll known at Lahaina. He
arrived at the old capital a short time
ago and went into the ick-laying
business, at which he was very good
and was making money.

THREE JAPANESE KILLED
TWO BY A BLAST AND ONE BY A
LOCOMOTIVE.
Kukuihaelc-W aipio Railroad Construc-
ton Claims Five Victims, Killed in
Using Powder on the Road Bed.

The Kukuihaele- Waipio railway has
claimed two more victims, making a
total of five men, all Japanese, killed
since the work of construction began.
On Saturday last two Japs were killed
by an explosion of giant powder, used
in blasting the road bed for the rails.
The railroad is being built round the
mountain side, to connect Kukuihaele
and Waipio. Continuous blasting has
been necessary in order to make a road
bed, and it is in doing this work that
the Japs have lost their lives, either
from blasts OF land slides.
Several months ago two japanese
were killed at once under very much
the same circumstances as in the cases
of last SaJul day, charges of giant pow
der throwing huge rocks onto them.
Later another Jap was killed the same
way. The road is only a short one but
it requires q vast amount of labor and
is making a record for costing human
lives.
Another Jap was killed at Kukuiha-
ele on Monday, by a locomotive. He
was run over and instantly killed.
