THE MAK|K| CRUSAER
READY FOR ACCEPTANCE
BY ROAD DEPARTMENT
When Started Will Change the Face
Of Things on the Streets
in the Makiki
District.

An inspection OF the new rock
crusber at Makiki gives the impress.
sion that the sib.cOb spent by the
Department for this plant was an ex.
celleDt investment The machinery is
all In place and steam has been turn
ed on. A few tons Of rock nave been
pulverized, and now with the tighten.
ing OF a few screws and the removal
Of kink or two in the cable all will
be ready for grinding. A
The plant will turn out 100 yards
of crushed stone daily. This will be
used In macadamizing the various
streets in the Makiki district. which
have been patiently waiting the com.
pletion Of the crusher. The road
leading from the plant to Pensacola
street will be nfacadamized first. Then
the heavy material can be hauled
easily down slight grade to the
streets Of the city.
The plant is equipped with 80.
horse boiler and 4O-horse engine.
Five men will manage the whole insti-
tuition when II is completed. It is
situated on the Eva bank of branch
OF Makiki stream, on the country side
of Punchbowl hill. Across the stream
there are acres and acres OF land
which produce fabulous quantities
OF rock OF the best quality. Burnley
drills and sledges aud picks have pull
verified the ledge, and little ele-
waited cable road, equipped with three
cars, transports the stone to the hun
CRY hopper Of the mill.
The mill eats -four tons OF rock at
a mouthful and sorts It into four
sizes, depositing each grade in bin,
convenient for loading into wagons.
The streets IN that quarter of the
city have been put into a condition
OF complete readiness for the layer OF
macadam. The property owners have
been prompt in putting down curbine
and many Of them have parked their
frontage and laid smooth cement side
walks. Mr.. Campbell will make Kee'
amoku street a model He has had
his own way on this street and be-
lieves he will show the proper thing
in cutters. grades. slopes. etc.
At the other end Of town the Asy'
lum crusher is turning out l5v yards
OF rock, which is going onto King
street.

Fined For Death on board.

1.-THE only place. as far as law Is con
cerned, where ii costs money to die
from natural causes is aboard steam
ship" remarked n vessel owner. 1.-THE
purpose of the law was excellent
enough. There was a time when emil
grants were being brought to this
country In very large numbers. or by
the shipload.' as it was termed. There
Is no doubt that there was crowding in
the ships that brought them, and to
prevent this law was passed impos-
ing upon the ship fine of $40 for
every death that occurred during the
passage from natural causes Of per-
sons over s years Of age. This
put a stop to overcrowding, or, at
least, it is supposed that II did, which
is about the same thing. Ships do not
fancy having to pay fines Of this kind.
"Of course. in comparison with the
great army of persons who are brought
across the ocean from month to month.
there are very few deaths. for the stat
isticians have been kind enough to
show beyond doubt that the steam
ship is the safest means OF transpor-
tation in existence, but, just the same,
there are considerable number In the
course of year" Washington Star.

p.,.on Proof Animals.

Neither differences OF organization In
animals nor in the constitution OF the
poisonous substance generally afford
any ciew for interpreting an exception
al want of effect. Unaccountable IL
the immunity OF rabbits against bella
donna leaves (Atropa belladonna, dead
ly nightshadeD. You may feed them
with belladonna for weeks without OBJ
serving the least toxic symptoms. The
meat of such animals. however. proves
poisonous to any one who eats 1t, pro-
ducing the same symptoms as the
plant.
Pigeons and various other herbivora
are also to some degree safe from the
effects of this poison, while In warm
blooded carnivora Ii causes paralysis
and asphyxa. In frogs the effect
is a different one, consisting Of spasms.
The meat of goats which had fed on
hemlock has sometimes occasioned
poisonous effects. Chickens are near
ly hardy against nux vomica and the
extremely dangerous alkaloid, strych-
nine, contained in IL, while In the
smallest amount ii Is n fatal poison to
rodents.
More remarkable yet in this respect
is the immunity of Chol9pus hoffman
nj, kind of sloth living on the island
of Ceylon, which, when given ten
grains of strychnine, was not much af-
fected. Pigeons are possessed Of high
immunity from morphine. the chief al
kaloid of opium, as well as from bella
donna. Eight grains were required to
kill pigeon, not much less than the
mortal dose for n man. Cats are ex-
tremely sensitive to foxglove (Digitalis
purpurea). which on the contrary may
be given to rabbits and various birds
In pretty large doses.

The second class mail matter now
transmitted costs the department
about twenty million dollars more
than the receipts aud this large defic-
iency is due primarily to the wording
OF the law which virtually makes the
government a free horse for all sorts OF
publications. Books, pamphlets, cheap
novels and various other publications
claim second class privileges because
they are issued monthly or quarterly,
and it is this class of matter that loads
down the mails and causes the defic-
iency. Reasonable concessions should
be made to Legitimate newspapers and
magazines in the interest of a wider
and more speedy dissemination of in
formation and intelligence, but the
present system is entirely too wide.

Dingle bangles are those narrow rib
bons OF black silk, tipped at the ends
with brass points, which have been
hanging lately from the waists OF many
young women. They resemble shoe
laces, and the story OF their origin as
feminine ornaments Is interesting.
They were invented, man milliner
says, in Paris. A milliner sat racking
his brain one afternoon for some new
idea to spring upon the women, and
while this racking process went on his
eyes rested absently on an old fash
Toned print of girl in bodice that
laced down the front as corset laces.
The broad silk strings In the bodice
attracted him. 1t was OF silk ribbon
and pointed at the end with metal.
An idiotic idea came to the man mill
liner, and he bought some dozens OF
those wide black shoe laces that are
worn in Oxford ties. He tipped them
with gilt wire and hung them In D
bunch from the waist OF an afternoon
gown. They had an instantaneous
success. 1t wasn't long before, under
the charming name OF dingle-dangles,
they had travelled to England and
America. They are not in any way
pretty, and can make a good woman
look more demoralized than any one
thing she can add to a respectable
toilet.

Good advice but 1t is doubtful II it
will be needed in the least. President
Mckinley contributes word Of caution
TO the spectators who nave ballooned
the stock market. In little speech at
Bristol, Tenn, incidental to his trans
continental trip now in progress he
said: what we went to do now is to
be prudent in our prosperity-save
while we can and be strong il the
storms should come, and they do now
and then" There isn't much to be
hoped for in the men ia Wall street,
perhaps, but the admonition to be pru-
dent is timely for persons inclined to
speculative ventures-in Texas and
elsewhere.

EITHER PHONE.

Owing to the establishment of rural
mail delivery route No. 2 from Green
vile, the BANNER changes the address
OF several of its subscribers from Bel
ding to Greenville. Possibly it may
have no effect upon Bedding that these
families who have made this city their
main market and postoffice, will not
have to come here after their mail In
the future. Possibly they will keep
right on coming here to market their
produce and purchase their supplies.
We say possibly they may, but We
frankly admit that we doubt it. Pos.
sibly also this city has such large
clientele of farmer patrons that we can
spare a few and never miss them.
That we will leave to you. Then there
are petitions which have been circula-
lated for other routes, reaching into
our territory equally as much from
other directions. One from Saranac
coming up through Keene into the
southern part of Otisco, and one from
Ionia, taking a good slice out OF Or
leans. If they are granted, and have
you any particular reason for thinking
they will not be, what will be our po-
sition then? Our city has always prid-
ed itself very much upon its reputa-
tion and ability for hustling qualities,
but you must confess that here is one
thing in which she has sleepily allowed
all her neighbors to gain an advantage
