THE HEAVY WINDS.

The severe winds of the past several
days have kept several of the smaller
island craft in the harbor The Ka-
valiant did not make a trip to Koolau

The Japanese fishermen have had a
hard time of it since the heavy winds
began blowing several days ago. They
have been unable to go out to their
usual fishing grounds and in conse-
quence there is today no fish in the
market except mullet from the fish
ponds.

A wcll-known English engineer very
cleverly says that the fundamental
difference between English and Amer.
lean industrial improvement is that in
America the first question dealing with
the improvement scheme is; What
saving can be effected under the pro.
posed scheme" In England, on the
other hand. the invariable question is,
''What will be the cost?" a point of
view that often results in pigeon -hollng
proposals without inqulring into their
merit.

The automobile almost succeeded in
getting a footing as a road vehicle
sfxty-six years ago. A French writer
says that IT failed then because of the
hostility Of the railroads, which re.
garded 1t as n dangerous rival. This
hostility was first shown in England.
The locomotive act Of 1896 passed by
the British Parliament, practically pro.
hibited the motor road wagon. Under
that act a toll Of $1.25 was put upon
gailrOad coach and S12 on a steam road
wagon or carriage. But the act also
required that man should walk ahead
Of the automobile waving a red flag as
u warning that it was coming. That
provision effectually destroyed the use
fnlness Of the automobile as a private
or public conveyance, and It went out
OF existence. Unfriendly legislation
had. also, a discouraglng effect upon
the machine elsewhere. The English
parliamentary barrier TO the use of,the
automobile was not removed until 1896.
The bad habit OF scorching, which au.
tomobilists have since cultivated is,
however. inviting tie severest legisla.

How little do some people realize
that the spirit of their lives will reach
out to help and uplift humanity for all
time! Little do they dream that like
the exquisite perfume distilled from
dead rose leaves, the fragrance Of their
uRselfsh deeds will sweeten and beau.
hfy the world long after they have
passed away. On a higher plane they
will realize that what they deplored as
failure was, in truth, the noblest sue.

Success, that those who have tried
with all their might to live up to the

distinction in science, art, music or
some other field, or done some high,
heroic deed that attracts the worlds

The royal feast was done; the king

And to his Jester cried: "Sir Fool,
Kneel now, and make for us a pray

The Jester doifed his cap and bells,
And stood the mocking court be-
fore;
They could not see the bitter smile
Behind the painted grin he wore.
He bowed his head and bent his knee
Upon the monarch's silken stool;
His pleading voice arose; 30 Lord,
BE merciiul to me- fool!

From red with wrong to white as wool;

The Census Office estimates that
electricity has entered into the life of
this country to the extent of 81 worth
per year for each man, woman and
child of the population. OF this SO
worth is supplied by the electric trac.

electric light concerns and IS cents
worth by the telephone companies.

A Useless Industry.

"This Is the age of feats-Alpine-
climbing, Channel-sWimming, fasting
for weeks, searching for the North and
South Poles-the most of them being
more or less useless, and involving
quite unnecessary dangers. But per.
haps Of all fatuous attempts to accom-.
plish something because it has not
been done before, says the Dundee
Courier, nothing caps the feat Of play
ing the piano against time. An out.
break of this mania is announced from
Marseilles, where a couple of pianists,
fred by the example OF an Italian
musician who played for nineteen
hours at n stretch, have started to
break the record. The conditions are
that they shall play for thirty hours
with at most only four intervals, each
of ten minutes, for rest and refresh
ment Considering that those who
have to play the piano are very much
liable to ailments OF the muscles and
nerves Of the fingers and wrists, it
might be supposed that pianists would
not take UP meaningless tasks that
would exhaust muscles and nerves
were they made of steel wire, and
tasks which, even were they accom-
plished would make 10 one wiser or
better. IT is well, however that there
is no compulsion Of the public TO attend
to hear these musical freaks, and it
may be hoped that the building in
which they are carried on is situated
at a respectable distance from the
paths Of an innocent public.
