ent in This issue about the preaerva-

the apportionmeAt Of these Islands
into counties as proposed in the
County Bill introduced in the Fed
eral Congress hy Delegate Wilcox.
AS much as we lo5s the old names
OF the different localities, we never
theless are in sympathy with the
proposed new names commemors-
tive OF past rulers OF these Islands,
desming such a course as being pro-
per, quite fitting and appropriate.
la our opinion the old names wi
not be hardly missed nor lost sight
of altogether, for they will still be
preserved, in our way of thinking,
together with those new names now
proposed. How would it be in this
instance, say: Clown OF Lahains, 10

tain OF the propositions aud proper
adjectives may ba curtailed aud
eliminated. Will not the above

these objections poor to receive any

has been suggested, we herewith

The INDEP zNDlNT cannot Tor a mo-
ment believe that Chinese sweet
ments had something to do with
recent case OF fatality. The reason
for this supposition, for il such is
the case, why are not the "bummers"
of all nationalities rampant during
Chinese New Years afflicted? Are
they supposed to have been immun-
ed by special dispensation of the
health powers thai be9 1t seems SO
strange that only this case in point
is credited to the eating OF sweet
meats during the Chinese holiday,
aud is the only case claimed to be
from such a cause, while Others are
from various other causes But our
immuned "bummers" OF both sexes,
the haoles being the worst in our
opinion on account OF their superior
% knowledge in matters OF propri
ETY., are as yet unaffected. To cast
such slurs on our Chinese friends
seem uucalled for and odious to say
the least,

How far does sunlight penetrate be-
meath the surface of the seas? has been
asked many times, and now the camera
has answered the question. By expos
ing the most sensitive Photographic
plates at various depths it has been as
certained with definiteness how much
sunlight there IS in the water each de-
scending foot.
There is a point at which no action OF
light is found, and that point is 600 feet
under the surface. Below that Is abso-
lutte darkness, and the only way In

fected in that black abyss Is to send
