Had the Advantage of Him.

An amusing incident enlivcncd
President Hayes visit to Kansas in
1870. The president was engaged
in a speechmaking and hand shak-
ing tour. At Hutchinson a large
crowd had gathered to greet him.
In Hutchinson at the time was one
Bill Graham, cattle man much Civ
en- to the use of intoxicating liquor.
Bill joined the crowd without know
ing what it was all about. He fell
in line and gradually approached
the president, who was standing on
the lower step of his car and shak-
ing hands with all who came. AS
Bill came near the president reach
ed over, graspcd him by the hand,
shook it vigorously and said, "My
friend, am delighted to see YOU"
"Thash all right, pard," said Bill,
"but b'gosh yer got the advantage
of me-"

Above the Atmosphere.

If it were possible to rise above
the atmosphere which surrounds
the earth the sun would look like
sharply defined ball of fire, while
everything else would be wrapped
in total darkness. There could be
no diffusion of light without an at
mosphere or some similar medium
for the suns rays to act upon. But.
on the contrary, if the earth's at
mosphere extended to a height OF
700 miles the suns heat and rays
could never penetrate it, and We
would freeze to death while wrap,
ped in darkness blacker than the
blacklist midnight.

The Tipperary Rifle.

The shilalah, or the Tipperary
rifle, as it is called in the south OF
Ireland, is not a mere stick picked
up for a few pence or cut casually
out of the common hedge. 1t grows
to maturity under the fostering care
Of its owner.
The shillulah, like the poet, is
born, not made. Like the poet,
too, it is choice plant, and It's
growth is slow.
Among 10000 blackthorn shoots
perhaps not more than one is DIES,
tined to become famous, but one OF
the 10000 appears Of singular fit
ness. AS soon as discovered it is
marked and dedicated for future
service. Everything that might
hinder its development is removed
and any oirshoot of the main stem
is skillfully cut off.
With constant care it grows thick
and strong upon dubious root that
can be shaped into a handle. The
real shillalah is not more than {
foot and half long, while the knoll
should be about as large as a bis
mans fist.
The best shillalahs can easily b,
told by the three sprigs which grow
from each otrshoot of the mail

Why Thunder Sours Milk.

You have often asked or been
asked, "Why does thunder sour
milk" The answer is this: Milk is
very susceptible to atmospheric
changes, Electricity, the cause of
thunder, produces, or if it does not
really produce follows, great and
rapid changes in the atmospheric
conditions Lightning is the dis
charge which comes of electrical
inequalities, producing chemical
changes in the air. Thundcrstorms
represent the greatest activity of
electrical phenomena, and the best
authorities give it as their opinion
that the electricity in the atmos-
phere is the prime cause of milk
souring during the prevalence of
such storms.

EQUINE JEALOUSY.
How a Trainer Was Led to Develop q
Pair Of Boxing torces.

' gu W DS"''S ''N'~~~'
A. b. Powell, the veteran trainer
of horses, who after two patient
years actually taught two horses to
stand up on their hind legs and box
with the gloves on, declares that
not only are horses jealous, but
that it was the outcome of an in
cident arising from the feelings
which the green eyed monster is re-
puted to inspire which led him to
believe he had found a pair of box
ing horses.
One of the horses was a thor
oughbred Arab, known as Cigarette,
and the other dun horse of Turk
ish breed called Charley, and writ
er in the Windsor Magazine thus
describes the incident:
an the earlier days of Charley's
connection with circus life he was
presented with very handsome
saddle for use in a certain act. Now,
1t happened on one occasion that it
was found necessary to remove this
saddle from the back of the Turk
ish bred animal and place it upon
the jet black Cigarette.
"Later on in the evening a ire
mendous row was heard in the
neighborhood of the stalls where
the two animals had been stabbed
side by side. Some of the attend
ants ran to see what was up. They
found that Cigarette and Charley
had broken loose and were practi-
cally 'in grips'-kicking, plunging
and stamping upon each other.
"When Mr.. Powell arrived on the
scene the two animals were stand
ing on their hind legs in the regu-
lar pugilistic attitude and endeav-
oring to exchange terrific blows on
mead and body. They were quickly
separated, but the astute trainer
had taken his cue, and next day he
began to give the horses their first
real lessons in boxing."-London

Whlskers In the British Navy.

In 1869 Queen Victoria took a
great interest in whiskers in the
British navy. She wrote to the first
lord of the admiralty in that year:
"The queen thanks Mr.. Childcrs
very much for his communication
on the subject Of boards. She thinks
the order will do extremely well.
Her own personal feeling would be
for the boards without the mus
taches, as the latter have rather a
soldicrlike appearance; but then the
object in view would not be attained
Ito prevent the necessity for shay
ing. Therefore it had better be as
proposed, the entire beard, only it
should be kept short and very clean
The queen wishes to make one addi-
tional observation respecting the
beards-that on no account should
mustaches be allowed without
boards, That must be clearly un-
derstoOd."

district. In due time she returned with
her retinues to Maui, her birth place.
She had a son, his name was KAPPA
kahilinuiamamao, who grew up under
the care of Kamehameha- Kauokoa and
his wife Kiliwehi. By his fathers af-
fable manners and the supreme au-
thority and warm affection among his
people of Maui he gained their con-
fidence. Peace and order was again
established on Maui by Kalanikupule
engaging him as his aid and counselor.
He was killed at the battle of Koko-
mo, where he fought Kamehameha l.
The latter was victorious and the road
to Waikiki was left open to Kameha-
meha /, his retainers loved him and
worshipped him. His remains were at
tended to by the orders of Kameha
meha l and special court met and
decided to send it over by water or sea
to Puma by night on large canoe
(waa kaulua), which he inherited from
his great grandfather, Kalakauaehua-
kama, and his sister, Kauanoholani,
through their issue, Kepoomahana, who
were married in ancient style. Two dou-
BILE canoes were dressed with royal pu-
loulou aliis which was newly made for
the occasion. To acknowledge their
relation before landing they exchange
feather cloaks and the two drums ''Ha-
wea" and "Opuku," beat loudly at the
sacred ceremony and tabu ahas fell to
the ground to recognize them. AS it is
customary in those days and even so
at the time of King Kauikeaouli, Ka-
mehameha III, it was known the King
took to wife "Hoao' Keohokalole, his
first cousin. Although Kapaakea was
of the Kings equal in blood. and so
was Paki. The King requested Paki
and his wife Konia, mother of Princess
Bernice Pauahi Bishop, to adopt Lii
liuokalani, they being next highest in
blood.
To my knowledge the King had son
by Queen Kalama, his name was ke-
aweaweulaokalani, he died young.

A RECENT DISCOVERY.

Among the most magnificent and ex-
tensive architectural ornaments of the
Romans were the baths erected by the
different emperors for the use of the
populace, and the vast ruins still exist
ing testify to their great size and the
unparalleled luxury Of their arrange
ments. The public baths of Pompeii
were uncovered in 1924 and the COM
plete internal arrangement disclosed,
which is probably similar to. though on
a smaller scale than those of Rome.
The public bath was common in Greece
during the historic period, and they
were in use at Rome from early times.
each bath was built entirely of stone
and polished marble, and all of the
apartments were beautifully ornament
ed with mosaic, and profusedly adorned
with paintings. One Of Caracalla's
baths was capable of allowing $4,000
people to battle at one time. In Ho-
nolulu the only bath is Bath the
Plumber and his Douglass Closet.
