HONOLULU vs., BOSTON.


Hawaii ought to shine on the credit
book of the War Department, at least
in contrast to Boston, for the manner
in which that departments wishes re-
garding the Philippine commissioners
to the St. Louis Exposition We're COM
piled with by Governor Carter, Sec
rotary Atkinson and the mercantile
bodies of Honolulu. Boston simply re-
turned a fiat and frozen refusal to
Colonel Edwards, chief of the insular
bureau of the War Department, as
the reply to letter he wrote regarding
representatives who would visit east
ern cities. Colonel Edwards had writ
ten to Mayor Patrick A. Collins of Bos-
ton saying that the cities of New York
and Philadelphia proposed to enter
tain the Philippine delegation. Similar
hospitality was bespoken of the city of
Boston Mayor Collins, replying said
that the delegation represented purely
commercial bodies and that any cour-
tesies should be extended by commer-
cial organizations. At the same time
he conveys the decision of the directors
which had been taken upon COM
munication from Chairman Wilson Of
the Philippine exhibit at St. Louis.
This was that, las the proposed visit
could not be regarded as of much COM
mercial Importance to the city, the en-
tertaining of the delegation did not
come within the scope of the functions
of that organization" Mayor Collins
also said, on behalf of the metropolis
of culture itself:
II cannot see how the municipality
can possibly be involved in their re-
present state of its finances, I do not
feel warranted in mourning the ex-
penditure."
Who would have thought that Bos-
ton hospitality was to be extended
only in anticpation of an equivalent
return of commercial benefit? Is cour-
tesy not an essential element of cul-
ture? The Governor of Hawaii, when
requested from Washington to see to
the entertainment of the Philippine
commissioners, was up to his eyes in
preparations for his departure to
the mainland. He, Notwithstanding,
promptly enlisted the good offices of
the business community for compli-
ance with the request. Not only that
but he held reception in honor of the
visitors while they were in Honolulu.
The cordial acknowledgment by Secre-
tary Ferguson of the attentions paid
here to the commissioners, which has
been published in the Advertiser, fully
attests the satisfactory response made
by the commercial organizations of
Honolulu to the call made upon the
hospitality of this midocean metropolis.
Probably the Beef-Eaters" of Lon
don would be regarded of more COM
mereial importance" to the Bean Eat

than the representatives of our benev-
olently assimilated commerce in the
Philippine Islands.

HIT WOULD ACCEPT.

According to the Washington Star
of May 10, Congressman Robert H.
Hit of Illinois will accept the vice
presidential nomination on the Repub-
lican ticket il it is offered to him. The
Star mentions that Mr.. Hit sis frank
to say that he would regard his selec-
ton as an honor" and proceeds as
follows:
This candid admission so sharply in
contrast to the coyness of some others
who have been proposed, is refreshing
to the politicians. The verdict today
was that the Endorsement of Mr.. Hit
by the Illinois state convention as good
as dominates him for the vice presi-
dency.
1t was agreed, further, that Mr.. Hit
would make a strong candidate, add
to the national ticket, strengthen the
party in Illinois and If elected make
an eminently satisfactory Vice Presi-
dent He is popular in Congress, Is
socially prominent and is liked in all
official circles of the capital.
Because of his service at the head
of the foreign affairs committee and
in the State Department he is often
spoken Oh as uipioiihl iiS - q
diplomat. but not in the generally ac-
copied definition of the term. He is
a disciple of the school of diplomacy
of which William r. Day was an ex-
ponent, irreverently called shirt
sleeve diplomacy" Mr.. Hit has a
way of speaking his mind that would
lead a European diplomat to jump at
once to the conclusion that he was
trying to conceal his thoughts, opin-
ions and motives That was what they
used to call "shirt sleeve diplomacy
in the time of Secretary Day, and 1t
took the Europeans months to get the
curves.
Probably 1t was this quality of d.
rectness which led Mr.. Hit to plump
out the truth when the subject was
first preached that he thought the Of
flee of Vice President was some pun
kins" and he would be very much
gratified to have it fall to him.
1t was the first case on record in
this campaign where there was no
sidestepping, shying or ducking by
proposed vice presidential candidates.
The politicians are almost like the
European diplomats-ready to fear
ceal something else. But they are glad
he was frank about II, and glad 1t
was Mr. Hit whom Secretary Shaw
proposed.
With the republican national con-
vention only five weeks Off, the poll
ticians will be very glad to have the
vice presidency cleared up. Roosevelt
and Hit sounds like diff, bang" and
that's the way the republicans want
to make the campaign go. All ar
rangements will have been made for
the republican convention, ticket ana
platform as soon as the HIT matter
is clinched.

Experiments which Resulted In the
Discovery OF ISRSiurn.
The investigations which resulted IN
the detection of Becque<cl rays began
soon after the discovery OF the Y rays
and were intimately connected with IL.
In the early days OF Roentgen rays
there were many facts which suggested
that phosphorescence had something to
do with the production OF these rays.
1t occurred TO several French physi.
eists that Y rays might be produced
IL phosphorescens substances were ex-
posed 10 sunlight instead OF to the
electrical action OF a Crookes tube. Pro.
lessor Henri BecQuerel OF the Uniyersi.
~ OF Paris undertook experiments to
test this supposition as early as 1896.
only few months after Y rays had
been discovered. Among the SUBJ
stances used in these experiments was
one containing the metal uranium. This
was placed upon n Photographic plate,
which had frst been wrapped in black
paper In order TO protect IL from the
light. After the plate had stood I'm
bright sunlight for several hours IL was
removed from its paper covering and
developed A slight trace or photo
graphic sctien was found at those parts
or the plate directly beneath the urani-
urn. Just as Bsequerei had expected. 1t
was clear that rays OF some kind were
being produced that were capable of
passing through black paper. Since the
\ rays were the only ones then known
TO possess this power. 1t seemed as
though the problem OF producing X
rays by sunlight was solved.
Then came the fortunate accident

was resumed the plates had been lying

A STORY WITH A MORAL.
There Are Ways and Ways OF Adver-
Using Ones Business.

There was once an advertising
agent who called on business man
TO prove to him that advertising in
newspaper was more effective than
advertising on billboards. The bust
ness man was skeptical on this
point. He had been in the habit of
distributing his business signs all
over the face of the landscape, and
he regarded this sort of exaggerated
tattooing as no less wise than pic
turesque, as perhaps it was. His
idea of the picturesque differed from
that OF the Barbizon school of paint
nag.
The agent said, 81 will prove to
you that a sign painted on a dead
wall is of very little practical val
ue."
The business man said. elf Won
can | Will advertise in your paper"
The agent made out his contract.
Then he said: "rhere is an adver-
tisement seven feet by four painted
In large letters on the wall of a sew
en- story building which you pass
ON your way to your office every
morning. Canyon tell me what it
is ?"
The business man racked his
memory in vain. He could remem-
Der that there was a sign there in
white letters on blue ground, but
though he had seen it every morn
ing for many years he could not re-
member anything more. Then the
agent led him out and showed him
that it was an advertisement of
somebody's liver pills.
This story carries its own moral.
When the first advertisement was
painted on wall for those to read
who never read newspapers it doubt
less did attract attention. But when
dozen brass bands are footing at
time, it would puzzle an expert to
tell what tune any of them is play
ing. In passing along the street the
brain can only take in q certain
number of impressions and instinc-
lively rejects those not of immedi-
ate interest. In reading a newspa-
per the attention of the reader is
given to the space before him for
several minutes, perhaps half an
hour. He sees things which he
would not notice in an instant's sur
yey. If he happens to want some
particular kind of goods he cannot
go out on the streets and scan the
buildings for the sign of the dealer.
He looks In the paper or in the di-
reetory. Any one who wishes to
test the comparative value of the
street sign and the newspaper need
only make the experiment described
in the story. The chances are that
he cannot tell the names of three of
the numerous firms whose goods he
has seen advertised on walls and
fences between his home and his
place of business. = Washington
