DEED OF SETTLEMENT.

A deed of settlement for the custody
and control of the Spaulding Cup will
be drawn up and executed by the par
ties in interest. This was decided on at
a meeting of the Honolulu Baseball
League yesterday afternoon. Early in
the year j. a. Thompson, vice presi-
dent of the Honolulu Athletic Club,
wrote to the donor regarding the dis
position of the cup and asking for in
formation regarding the conditions
governing its disposition. A reply was
received from A. G.. Spaulding to the
effect that the cup was perpetual and
advising the drawing up of a deed Of
conditions and the appointment of a
guardian. c. w. Smith was named by
Mr. Spaulding to act in the latter capa-
city.
The cup was presented to Honolulu
by A. G. Spaulding in 1899, when he Wis
tied Honolulu with the All-American
ball team which was making a trip
round the world. The cup was a chal-
lenge affair to be contested for perpe
tually and to be held by the champion
nine Of each season. 1t has been won

TROTrRLEs IN RUSSIA.

4 spurious proclamation has peeh
broadcast throughout the
southern provinces Of Russia. rms
proclamation directs the peasanuy' by
order of the Car, to re-diVide the lana,
cattle. and corn which the mobiles nave
re-absorbed, contrary to proclama-
ton issued by the late Car, Alexander
IL. The peasantry on the Duke of Oh
denburg's estate attempted to seize the
cattle which were kept at the camp.
They came into collision with the sol
diers. who charged with fixed bayonets.
one regiment refused to obey the or
der to charge. During the riots al
Moscow some men of one Of the city
regiments refused to fire upon the riot
ers when commanded. In consequence
soc men of that regiment have been
transferred to the remOteSt Of the Rus
sian provinces. a Marine Infantry de-
tachment at st. Petersburg has been
similarly punished for not helping &c
repress the disturbances which recently
broke out among the St Petersburg
students The whole district between
Vladimir and Moscow is in a condition
of labor revolt. A revolutionary de-
monstratiOn has taken place at Ekate'
rinoff, a suburb of st. Petersburg, al
the very head of the Gulf of Finland
as a result of which the Cossacks free
upon and charged the mob. Twenty OF
| the rioters were killed, and 40 wounded
while $50 arrests We're effected.

KILAUEA BROKE
LOOSE TUESDAY
Continued from page one.)

has not been noted in long time. The
weather is exactly the same that oc-
ours before the volcano outbreaks and
l expect to hear amy time of the XII
lauea having burst forth into a big
eruption"
similar opinion appeared to be en-
tertained by the people who lived along
the HamaNua coast. Those who were
acquainted with the conditions in the
past, declared that an eruption of XII
, lauea was certain to occur. No alarm
appeared however to be felt by the res
idents of that section.
Further news of the eruption will be
received tomorrow by the Kinau which
is due from Hilo. The officers of that
vessel had the advantage of being at
HilO and in closer touch with condi-
| tons at the Volcano House. They will
also have additional "A hours in which
to await developments of the eruption.
/ The reflection of the flames could GER
tainly have been seen by the officers
and various HilO passengers Of the XII
nau, and there is even a probability
/ that they saw the actual flames if
/ Tuesday and Wednesday nights were
| clear. The Hilo papers should have
reports of the outbreak.
Whether the present outbreak will
continue any length of time and devel-
op into a flow of lava can only be con-
jectured at this time. Those best ac-
quainted with the conditions which
presage such volcanic activity express
! the belief that an eruption is inevita-
Bile.
Certainly sufficient warnings of inn
pending activity have been given forth
by Kilauea. There has been a marked
| increase in the volume of smoke from
the crater, clouds of steam have been
reported, twice last month earthquake
shocks were felt along the Hamakua
coast, and finally on last Sunday morn
ing, the volcano gave a final warning
by two explosions of gas, accompanied
by clouds of sulphur and red ashes
The eruption reported today by the No
eaus officers occurred about two days
and half after these explosions.
Professor Lyons states that lava
flows are a very infrequent occurrence
with activity at Kilauea. Probably not
more than once in century has there
been any lava flow from Kilauea
About the only time was when the lava
burst forth and flowed from the side
down to Puma. Ordinarily when kilau'
ca is active, a vast quantity of molter
lava is stirred up in the crater, but tbs
flow does not come from this quarter.

Certain
Cure for


When the digestive organs are in a
healthy condition, these organs extract
from the food all that goes to make
good, rich blood, firm muscles, steady
nerves, and a sound, healthy body.
When irritated, congested or inflamed,
they fail to do their work properly and
loss of flesh, shattered nerves, indiges-
ton, sour stomach, flatulency and heart
burn follow. Herein lies the cause of
the failure of all remedies for dyspep-
STA heretofore placed on the market.
Drugs will not and cannot digest
food. They only decompOse it, and de-
composed food will not make pure
blood or give health or strength to the
body. The irritated stomach may be
relieved for time but the patient soon
finds himself in worse condition than
before.

THE NEWEST FLYING MACHINE.

THE NEWEST FL0lNG MACHlNE T.,
OF the making of flying machines
there is apparently no end. a Berwick
shire gentleman, Mr.. G. w. watson,
has applied for letters patent for ma
chine of this kind, of a somewhat novel
type. He has directed the cigar or tor
pedo shaped elevator for one which,
whilst almost round, has a sharp out
er edge; and he claims, with his ma
chine and forty-nine passengers, to be
able to sail straightly, angularly, or
circuitously, under any circumstances
or conditions, at any time. suspended
from the elevator in the usual way Is
a wicker car, which will contain the
prime motor and passengers; and in
order to avoid the necessity of such
hair breadth escapes as have been eX-
perienced by NJ. Santos-Dumont, the
inventor is provided with an auto
matte parachute, which will enable the
car to descend gently to earth in the
event of an accident to the elevator.

THE HEAT OF THE SUN.

When one is exposed to the hot beams
OF a summer sun, and remembers that
the body which radiates this great heat
is said to be nearly $4,000 600 miles
away, he cannot but conclude that that
body must itself be incOnceivably hot.
The idea has been put forth that the
sun is not really hot, but radiates
some sort of energy which only be-
comes heat when it impinges on some
material body, such as the earth. In
support of this notion it is pointed out
that the higher above the earth ana
the nearer the sun we get the colder II
becomes. but this fact can be explained
otherwise. The generally-accepted doc-
trine among astronomers is that the
sun is really hot, but how not there Is
some difficulty in determining. Young,
from the focal heat of burning Sasees'
estimated the effective heat OF the sun
at $4,000 degrees Fahrenheit, Dut there
have been much higher estimates
Sachhi, for example putting 1t at sew
eral million degrees. Mr.. W. f. VIII
son. who has devoted much attention
to this point, has just made new ue-
termination, and puts. the effective
heat of the sun at 1000 degrees f. Slr
Jobn Herschell showed that if a glacier
Al miles thick each way was continual
Iv rushing into the sun with the speed

franchise that came to them only
a few years ago drenched in re-

The schools need money, and
we are willing and anxious that
they have it; but between the
school and popular government
we prefer the ballot for the pres
ent. There are ways that the
Legislature can provide, for the
collection of this tax, which are
surer and more fruitful from the
financial point of view. The
school should not ask the vista

+ There is much complaint all
over the State concerning the
scarcity of labor. In the cotton
belt it is next to impossible to get
enough hands to take in the crop.
While the cane planters in some
sections are having a hard time
getting cane cutters, as the negro
laborers rather loaf around the
towns than work for S1.25 day.
In Baton Rouge, New Orleans and
other river towns several steam
boats were forced to tie up on ac-
count of being unable to ship q
crew, although the wharves and
towns were crowded with idle
negroes who even refused to give
any reason for declining to work
for $65 a month and board. TIA
lians and Mexicans are being i'm
ported to take the place Of the
striking negro laborers, but they
do not give the satisfaction de.
sired. The authorities in most
communities are taking stringent
measures to rid themselves of the
hordes of idle negroes and tramps
that flock in the towns at this
time of the season, and live of
what they can steal or beg. Frank
lin is fortunate this year in hav-
ing very few negroes loafng
around, most of them seems to be
working. Nevertheless our off,
GERS should see that they move on
and not congregatc on the. side.
walks as is often the case, espe.
cially. on Saturday nights. Every
idle negro or tramp should be
made to work or leave town as
they are q menace to the peace
and safety OF any community.
