It is unfortunate for Phoenix that

It is unfortunate for Phoenix that
 this year. The contest THE between the taxpayers ONE and the grafters being ISSUE confined to two wards, full opportunity is given for filling the shacks and crannies Of the Fourth ward with residents cull- ed from the floating, purchaseable and Irresponsible population of the entire city. That efforts will be made to vote scores of these birds of passage in fav- or of the existing policy of extravag- ance, cannot be doubted Citizens up- on whom the burdens of taxation rest are therefore handicapped by find ing themselves confronted by horde of nominal voters who have no inter- est whatever in the welfare of the com munity- In addition to the advantage afforded by the concentration of the contest to certain districts of the city, the so-called democratic management profits by the Iaxity of the law which permits a man to vote after only ten days residence" in the ward The law as it stands puts a premium on colonizat ton.
 But these facts should rot discourage the solid citizenship of Phoenix. On the contrary. the situation demands re- doubled vigilance and an aroused con- science on the part of the tax-paying citizen. be he democrat or republican. As the issues have shaped themselves, tie partisan complexion of the respec- tive tickets constitutes q minor feature of the campaign. The overshadowins issue is the redemption of the city from the rule of ring which is plung- ing the municipality deeper into debt each year. Upon this issue there is no room for division between public spir- ited democrats and public spirited re publicans. It is the duty of all, fires pective of beliefs on national questions to rally to the support of Aitken and Messinger. These candidates are repub- licanss but they represent something more than republicanism in the ab- stract. They stand for a radical change in the management of city af- fairs. A victory for Aitken and Mes singer will not be so much victory for the republican organization as a victory for the citizens who pay the taxes

With the exception of the Vanderbilt university at Nashville, =outhern edu-
 cation institutions FOR have benefited but little SOUTHERN from the generosity of EDUCATION. the benevolent ric h
 Many millions have been given to northern universities, out the south has been neglected. It was doubtless a recognition of this fact which led Mr Rockefeller the other day to give $1.O0O,0OO to southern schools. In practical results this gift is likely to prove more omportant than Mr. Eockefeller's princely donations to the university of Chicago.
 The people of the south. having been impoverished by the war, have be4n unable to maintain a sufficient number of ordinary schools, to say nothing of higher institutions of learning The various colleges have barely managed to keep their doors open, while to keep pace with the propress of the rich uni versailles of the north has been out of the question. As the southern people have begun to reap profits from their manufacturing enterprises they have themselves aided such institutions as the Washington and Lee university but the need Of large sums has been sorely felt, especially in the interior of the states which border on the gulf.
 There has been nc lack of cduca tiun- al zeal on the part of the suuthern p"o- pie The many northern men who made tour of that section last year and attended the Southern Educational conference were deeply impressed by the strenuous efforts of the school off ciais, the teachers and the people to inspire the white children with a zeal for Knowledge. The difficulty of rais- ing funds to make tine educational op- l portunities general was appreciated by the visitors, among whom was Robert 1 C. Ogden, of New York.

Professor Gannett, or the Onlleu States geological survey, has a paper
 in the bulletin of the POPULAR American geographical ERRORS. society which treats Cf
 popular errors in met eorology and geography. 4 few of his points are summarized by the Scientific American in what follows:
 Forest and Rainfall: An example of the persistence of error is the idea that the presence or absence of forests has an influence on the amount of rainfall. Some keen observer long ago detected the fact that forested regions enjoyed a heavier rainfall than those not for ested, and jumped to the conclusion that rainfall was produced by forests, and that the removal O. forests dinin- ished the rainfall. Looking over the earth, he found many treeless desert regions and forthwith instanCed them as frightful examples of mems waste fulness. Syria. northern Africa. parts of Italy. are often quoted as illustra tions of mans destruction of climate Tn reply, man can certainly plead not guilty. The geography of this Medi- terranean region, the configuration of land and water, and the direction Of the prevailing winds, are such as to give it a light rainfall-forests or no forests. The situation is really this: Want oi rain prevents the growth of trees; want of trees does not prevent rain.
 Forests and Floods: Another per sistent error is the belief that floods in our rivers are more frequent than for merly because of the cutting down Cf forests in their drainage basins. It is probable that the clearing of land by cutting away forests and undergrowth l dces change the regimen of streams, increasing their food height and dim finishing their flow at low stages. Tn other words, water runs off CT eVap- crates more rapidly from bare ground such as we have in Arizona, than from ground covered with forests. But where the forests are cut away the ground is seldom left bare: it IS culti- | Yated or quickly becomes covered with i bushes which hold the water quite as 1 effectively as forests. The main fact ] is. however, that the floods in our riv- CTS are no greater or more frequent now than in the past. according to I Professor Gannett.
 Climates and Ocean Currents: The well known mild climate Of the north west coast of America is commonly t. tributed to the Japan current. The Gulf stream is supposed to have lhe same influence on the western coasts oi Europe, etc. But can it be supposed that the Japan current, however warn it may be when it leaves the tropics retains any appreciable excess of hea' after journey of six thousand miles in northern attitudes? As matter O. fact, no trace Of this current reache. the shores of North America. in th, north Atlantic the condition is InUcf the same. The Gulf stream disappear: as current long before the Britisl isles are reached.

NEXT TUESDAY THE DAY.
The Cruiser Will Sail Out With High
Tide.

The cruiser New York will sail early
in the morning next Tuesday, Novem-
Der IS, at high tide. The tide will be at
its full about 6 o'clock that morning
so that an early start will be made.
The New York sails from here for
San Francisco There Admiral Rodgers
will take leave of the vessel that has
been his flag ship and will go to Wash
ington and hopes to be given leave of
few weeks before being assigned to new
duties.
Admiral Rodgers made trip through
Pearl Harbor yesterday. He sent his
steam barge down by water and him
self went to Pearl Harbor by rail. There
he took the barge and made a very
thorough examination of the lochs, re-
turning later by train, the barge being
sent back the way it came.
Admiral Rodgers, though he has been
in practically every part of the Pacific
ocean before is in these waters for the
first time in his life.
Il an sorry" he said. that we will
not have time to see as much of the
islands as we should like, What L
have seen l am delighted with. Pearl
Harbor is a most interesting and magn-
ificent body of water and arm of the
sea. l have been about as much as 1t
has been possible, so far and expect to
be about more but even then 1 do not
expect to see half the things that are
worth seeing here"

PRETTY
LEAVE TAKING
VESSEL SAILS OUT OF THE HAIR
BOR AMIDST A FINE DISPLAY OF
MARINE COURTESIES.

With as pretty display of courtesies
as has been seen in this harbor for a
long time, the magnificent steamship
Korea sailed from Honolulu for the
Orient at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
Promptly at 2 o'clock the lines that
moOred her to the wharf were cast off
and with the Fearless pulling her as
tern the big black monster slowly NOV
ed along the line of the wharf out into
the middle of the harbor, straight
astern toward the vessels moored in
naval row.
Big clouds of dense black smoke pour
ed out of the Korea's smokestacks
portentous of the gigantic power in her
furnaces, boilers and engines. The
Fearless puffed smoked too, as she
hauled the stern of the Korea around
till her prov pointed out the channel
The whole harbor was clouded with the
drifting smoke which lazily blew out
to sea-
The signal was given. The Fearless
cast loose the line. The twin screws
of the Korea began to stir up the mud
Then the great mass began to move
out toward the sea.
Just as the Korea began to move for
ward the band of the cruiser New York
stationed on the quarter deck began
to play in compliment to the great mail
steamer. The Korea gave three blasts
as she passed the New York, flags on
each vessel were gracefully dipped in
unison. 1t was a pretty sight. Flags
were dipped again as the Korea passed
the Iroquos which was moored at the
channel wharf
Faster and faster the Korea steamed
out of the channel and stood out to sea,
passing and saluting with whistle and
flag dipping the monster Oregon before
turning to the westward steering for
the Orient.
There was a good sized crowd at the
wharf to see the Korea depart and
everyone there was well repaid in wit
Messing careful seamanship, and the
pretty amenities of marine leave taxi
ing. Captain Macauley was the pilot
that brought the Korea in and took her
out.

DETAILS OF THE
DEATH OF
ANDREWS
WIFE REPORTED TO HAVE CON-
FESSED THAT SHE is THE GULL
TY ONE-MUTUAL JEALOUSY
THE CAUSE OF CRIME.

News brought by the Helene which
arrived this morning tends to clear up
the mystery concerning the death ana
supposed murder of Captain Robert
Andrews last saturday morning
The Helene was in Hilo on Tuesday.
The coroner's jury had not then COM
pleted it's investigation. According to
the testimony adduced, Captain An
d"eWs was at his breakfast Saturday
morning. When the Japanese woman
who was serving the breakfast brought
in the Coffee Captain Andrews tasted
1t and Immediately told the Japanese
woman to take it back as Il was not
properly prepared The Japanese wo-
man replied that it was prepared the
same as usual, at the same time tasting
it herself Captain Andrews went on
eating his breakfast, but very soon he
was stricken with symptoms of violent
poisoning, and so was the Japanese wo-
man. y physician was called, but his
efforts, so far as Captain Andrews
was concerned, were unavailing, and
the captain died in a very short time.
The Japanese woman finally recover
ed.
Mrs. Andrews was put under arrest
at once and an investigation was made.
StrychnIne was found not only in the
coffee but in the toast and in almost
every article of food on the breakfast
table, enough it is said, to have poison
ed almost a regiment of men.
The purchase of the poison was tIav-
ed to Mrs. Andrews, she having bought
it, as she said when it was sold to her
to poison dogs with which had become
a nuisance around the house. AS a
matter of fact, it is said that a num-
Der Of dogs in Waiakea had been poi
soned since her purchase of the stry-
chnine. 1t is supposed she poisoned the
dogs 20 ward off suspicion from the
death of her husband in case the pur-
chase oS the poison should be traced to
her
1t was reported that after the accu-
mutation of all the evidence against
her Mrs. Andrews confessed to having
poisoned her husband, alleging in ex-
tenuation that he was unfaithful to-
her
1t is known that there was domestic
infelicity between Captain Andrews
and his wife. Each accused the other
of infdelity. In their quarrels, it is
said, lames were banded OF those each
alleged were the others paramours.
Mrs. Andrews is of mixed Hawaiian
and Portuguese blood, and her home up
to the time she married Andrews was
on Molokai. 1t is said she is a sister of
Mrs. Manuel Rosa whose husband died
somewhat mysteriously about a year
ago at his home in the Punchbowl re-
gion. Mrs. Rosa was not suspected of
having killed her husband, but 1t was
alleged that she was a cause of quarrel
between her husband and his brother
| George, and the police worked on the
theory for a long time that this state of
feeling between the two brothers led to
Manueis' DEATH The grand jury in
vestigated the matter but returned no
Indictment.
Captain Andrews was formerly in the
employ of the Wilder Steamship Com
pany but for a number of years past
has been in charge of Hackfeld & Com
! panys shipping interests at Hilo.
