NEW YORK, February 6, 1902
All hail to the new Scotch suitings!
Every season these light and tempting
cloths. possessing the charm inherent in
pure, smoothly-woven wool, come back to
us, and we buy gowns Of them with all
the relish We usually feel for perfectly
new fabric. Women who are going south,
those who are going abroad, and the ma
jority who intend to spend Lent right here
at home, are all having spring wool cos
tunes made up, and their choice in nine
cases out of ten falls upon cloth of fine
cafe la creme in tone. There is yet
another favorite called tea brown and a
third somber color that goes by the descrip-
tive title of nodded leaf brown. The infer
ence can be readily gathered that the
browns predominant and the higher and
lighter the tone chosen the more convincing

tight little street, deck or train hats are
vignetted below to right and left and prove
what is being done in the way of tweed,
cheviot and suiting shapes Both of these

Scotch wool gowns, and one is trimmed on

a rosette of quilts.
1t would not be fair to talk of spring
things and fail to laud the new ribbons.
So enchantingly pretty are the ribbons that
whole gowns, boas and under-petticoats
are made completely of broad or narrow
ones, and at this juncture all ribbons are
reversible, and the most brilliant MORE is
boldly to the fore. One of the most TAX
ing weaves yet seen has one face checked
in black and white and the reverse woven
as clear green satin. Black moires shot
with different colors are immensely pop

running in double or single stripes the

of such fantasy ribbon are used in the man

CHEAP MOTIVE POWER.

The question Of cheap motive power
In Honolulu is taken UP by Mr. Arm
strong In a highly suggestive way.
Speaking from a text supplied by an
eminent scientist who says that the
winds which sweep uninterruptedly
through the space just above Chicago
roofs might be utilized to turn manu-
featuring wheels. he points out how
admirably Honolulu is placed to avail
itself OF a similar natural force. In the
Pail cleft We have a boreal clearing
house which collects the trades and
even the light breezes and sends them
hurting through the Nuuanu valley
TO the town One rarely ever visits the
Pal! without getting into half a gale;
and at times the wind attains a veloci-
~ against which neither horse nor man
can make Roadway and which has even
carried vehicles over the ravine cliffs.
That such a continuous blow could
be made to turn dynamos we have little
doubt. We think with Mr.. Armstrong
that enough electric power might be
generated there to give Honolulu some
chance Of becoming a manufacturing
city. BY long-distance transmission.
not only electricity for power but for
lights might be supplied all through
the Kona district OF Oahu and even
further. and at as low a price as is
asked for such service in districts
where a continuous motive power is
had from mountain streams To be
sure here and there a still day might
come even at the Pail. but at such
times steam power could be applied
without altering to any marked degree,
the terms OF the economic proposition.
AS the Territory owns the best wind
sites at the Pail. the way would seem
to be open for IT, the Legislature will

APAoHES AND ESKIMO.
Their Languages Found to be the
Same

MONTREAL, March 14.-An interest
ing chronological discovery has just
been made as a result of the observa-
lions OF Father Jette, S. j.. son OF Sir
l.. A. Jette, Lieutenant Governor OF the
Province OF Quebec. Father Jette is a
missionary among the Nulato Indians
whose habitat is near the polar circle.
He has made a careful study of their
language. and in writing to some of his
colleagues in New Mexico he quoted
words used by the Nulatos. To the
great surprise of those who received
Father Jette's letter the Nulato words
were found to be Identical with words
in the Apache tongue.
The result was further correspond
ence. and ultimately the discovery that
these two tribes OF Indians. now living
thousands of miles apart and in vastly
different climates. have the same Ian
guage.
From this fact the deduction has
been made that the Apaches of New
Mexico originally came from tie far
North. thus tending to confirm the the
DRY OF a common Asiatic origin.

Up.TO.DATE POLITICS.

The Home Rulers are learning
American politics quite in the Tam
many way. They had chance to
choose a candidate for the Gilfillan va
cancy from the ranks of labor. but
despite the urgency OF Mr.. Emmeluth.
who pointed out the wisdom OF an alli-
ance with the working class, they turn
ed unanimously away from the labor
man and took up with a bank direc-
tor. Parties which are in politics for
revenue only have a soft side for a
bank director especially If he is a man
whose leg can be pulled. In this case
the Home Rulers have acted with
Tammany precision which must have
been taught them by their colored
friend from Crokerville. The moment
the name of August Dreier was men
toned the Home Rulers said happy
thought" Dreier has money; he sold
a plantation for cash; he is in a bank;
what better man for a party that is
always hungry and thirsty and which.

Tammany assessment of legislative
nominee in a cinch year has gone as
high as $4,000. Here, owing to the in
creased cost of living. it ought not to
be cent less. Dreier has plenty and

THE MANKIoHr CASE.
An Important Constitutional Cues

SAN FRANCISCO, March 2O-An i'm
portant constitutional question viii be
heard in the Supreme Court of the United
States, the last step necessary for that
proceeding having been taken by the
United States Circuit Court of Appeals
when the record in the habaas corpus
case of Osaki Mankichi was certified 10
the Supreme Court.
Mankichi. between the time of the rails
ing of the American flag over the Ha-
waiian Islands and the formal annexation
of that territory by Congressional enact
ment, was convicted in Honolulu by nine
of twelve jurors of manslaughter of the
first degree, and on May %, 1899 was SEN
fenced to twenty years imprisonment at
been had under the old Hawaiian laws.
Mankichi applied for writ of habeas
corpus on the ground that his conviction
was had contrary to the provisions of the
constitution of the United States, which
he contended became the law of the land
as soon as the American flag had been
hoisted. United States District Judge
Estee granted the writ and ordered Man
kichi released from custody. The coun-
sci for the Government Immediately ap-
pealed to the United States Circuit Court
OF Appeals of the Ninth Circuit and to
the United States Supreme Court Judge

General Miles seems to be a man
with a faculty for getting into trouble
with his superior officers. or at least
of losing their confidence. His attitude
towards Secretaries OF War has usually
been critical and his course towards
Secretaries Alger and Root has shown
a spirit OF INSTRUMENTATION which must
be having a bad effect upon the disci-
pline OF the army. The existence OF a
Presidential bee in his highly decorated
cap may account for some OF the
trouble. though, why the insect should
ever have taken refuge there is hard

WORK FOR ex.pREsIDENTs.

There is little for an ex-President to
do except to go fishing. write articles
for the magazines and address collegi-
ate boSses- He Is usually above run
ing for an elective office; and hardly
any appointment IN the gift Of his sue
cessor would be compatible with his
dignity. True. John Quincy Adams
went to Congress after being President
and John Tyler, after having served
as President OF the United States. be-
came a member OF the Confederate
House OF Representatives: but these
examples have never set the rule. The
inordinate desire to keep in the public
eye and had. thereby. cheapened their
regulations This was again empha-
sized in the case OF Andrew Johnson.
who returned to the Senate from Ten
nessee,s but was obscured In his new
position by the magnitude OF the old
one.
Nevertheless there is a feeling that
a man who has had constructive
experience in the Presidency should
not be wholly lost to his country's SER
vice. 1t seems like educating a man
with great care in some scientific spe-
cialty. giving him important work to
do. and. just as his usefulness had
ripened TO the prime, debarring him
from further labors. A President goes
into office untried. In his first term
reelection; In the second and last he
applies himself to the study and prac-
tice Of craftsmanship, AT the end of
four years. he is, as rule, qualified
for the most distinguished service to
his country: but "then's the time for
disappearing" as was written of the
North Sea whale. He goes into the
haps to become sage, and a sight for
tourists. but never again to be a de-
cisive force in public affairs.
1t is now proposed to make him a
senator-at-Iarge for life. AS such the
country would have him where 1t could
draw unreservedly upon his full expe-
rience and his ripened judgment. Freed
from the ambition for place as he
would be; no longer obliged to trim his
~~-+so ~ eht pCR6AaA OAGc[Cs
to hattery or ~clamor or votes. such a
man would approach public issues with
the mind of a just Judge. 1t would
have been worth much to us to have
benjamin Harrison in the Senate
when the Philippine folly was brewing:
and IL would not be bad thing to
have Grover Cleveland there now.
Roosevelt at fifty will be "out of pol
itics." providing ne gets a second term
at the conclusion OF this one. Would
II not be wise to command his services
In the Senate during the ripe years

No one need fear the making OF life
positions We have them now in the
Supreme Court; and the argument for

would apply to the other The life po-
sitIon Is not un-republican; besides tbs
case mentioned we have life position:

little during cold weather. Warming
the water allows the animal to drink
all 1t needs and at time it is needed
without being chilled, says the Kansas
Farmer.
Inc temperature of cattle and horses
is ABOUT 100 degrees F., and this TEN,

eat, and everything should be done in
the way Of preventing the loss Of heat
by economically supplying an addition

In 1896, when corn was worth IL
cents per bushel, some farmers thought
1t more economical to burn corn in
their stoves than to sell it and buy
coal, and they were about right. pro-
vlded ton of corn on the cob would
yield as much heat as a ton of coal.
but with corn up to 20 cents it seems
extravagant to warm stock with it
when coal is only $3.50 to So a ton.
The time required to keep the heater

Ing to some extent on the kind of heat

taken without first letting the fire go
out is preferable. The heater needs at
tention twice daily and need not take
over seven or eight minutes each time.
Six of these heaters, representing
four different makes, were started at
the experiment station Dec. 10. One
of them has burned constantly ever
since. The others have had to be re-
kindled after each cleaning of the ash

The Cocoon Plantation.

A traveller in South America, where
the cocoa tree is largely cultivated,
speaks of the great care with which
the young plants have to be protected
from the sun, which, if very strong, is
fatal to them. To secure this protec-
ton the planters shield them by ba-
mana trees and plantain trees, the
broad leaves of which give them the
needed shade. And even when they
are fully grown they need protection,
which is given by trees known as I'M
lnOrtels," or, as the planters call them,
"the mother of the cocoa" Thus the
whole cocoa plantation has sort OF
canopy.
