OF Interest to Young Folks Who Study

Heat Is one of the most curious
things in this world.
Why do you pull your cap down over
your ears and button your overcoat so
tightly on frosty morning?
ITO keep out the cold" you say at
first thought. Oh, no, to keep In the
heat OF your body, to prevent 1t flying
off, to conserve 1t. This elementary
fact is. of course, pretty we'll under
stood by boys and girls. but it is less
easy to remember all about heat in it's
relationship to substance. There are
conductors and nonconductors of it.
Wooden materials belong to the latter
class, and so keep you warmer than
cotton, which conducts the heat and
| gives 1t off.
Air and Water.
Here Is an interesting experiment:
Put your hand into bowl of water
which has been allowed to stand in
the room some hours. Does 1t feel as
warm as the air? ooh, no." you an.

matter with thermometer Watch

Here is piece Of marble. Touch
it. You shiver, do you not? Marble
Is always uncomfortably cold. And,
ey the way, the writer remembers once
seeing a dear little white Eskimo dog
which could only be pulled through
Philadelphia summer by giving it the
use of marble topped table. Here
1t spent all its leisure hours and kept
cool.
Marble vs.. Wood.
TO return to our experiment. Placing
four hand on marble you would certain
iy aver that il is colder than the wood
right alongside of it? But, as u matter
uf fact. it isn't.
The difference between these two
substances is simply that the marble,
being better conductor Of heat than
the wood, it absorbs more Of tho
warmth from your hand, and 50 gives
you a greater sensation Of chiilness.
The reverse is true of charcoal. You;

Speaking of the nice distinctions in

often wondered why it was that the
French paid more attention to the DEL

been my observation that French writ
ers are quicker and more sensitive on
this point than the writer's of any
other country. suppose 1t is due to
some extent to the fact that the French

THE NORTHWEST LAND BOOM

An enormous amount of money has
gone into cheap land investment In the
northwest, largely in Canada. The
craze has been in progress for three or
four years. during which time as much
as &6O,O0Q,0OO has, according to some
estimates. gone out of Iowa.
| OF course it will not do to say that
this investment is a loss. Doubtless
some have made money quickly. Those
who got in on the ground floor and
were wise enough to unload promptly
upon other almost invariably realized
handsome profit. But it is gravely to
be doubted whether those who only
got into the second or third story have
been so fortunate. These. too, consti-
tute the great majority.
The land boom In the Canadian
northwest is not as buoyant "a 1t was.
1t will be long time before many will
be able to sell for what they paid.
Probably in the long run the investors,
as rule, will get their money back,
but conservative judgment is that most
of them would have done far better
along other lines of investment. Idaho
land for example presents opportuni-
ties for investment with probable profit
far in excess of Canadian lands. and II
is gratifying to know that few invest
ors acquainted with the wonderful re-
sources of the state are leaving it for
farther north.

WHAT THE PEOPLE WANT

The American people want the
Tsthmian canal constructed. II they
are profoundly convinced of their in
terest In any thing now before them. 1t
b that this work. so pregnant Of ad-
vantage to mankind, be verify done.
Partisan opposition in yearning to
aiscredit the administration Is putting
nself In the attitude of frustrating this
great work II Is the common error
Of over-zealous partlsanship. 1t can
not succeed The American people
want the work done, and will not ap-
prove a party which seeks to prevent
this work being done.
OF course the spirit of hyper crit
tcism can always find grounds for carp
ing at the methods by which any great
national purpose like the inter- oceanic
canal is achieved-technicalit par
tial views, prejudices, etc. No great
thing ever was or ever can be accom-
pfished in that spirit. 1t would have
prevented independence o fthe colonies
acquisition OF the Louisiana territory
suppression OF the rebellion and the
abolition OF slavery.
The partisan critics of the admin
fstration have no practical or rational
proposition for building the canal. They
only oppose. and criticise, and object,
and carp at the only way of going
straight ahead to build it. The only
effect Of their effort would be to throw
the whole great enterprise back into
the dough.
The American people believe in do

thing done, The administration Is YER

Bryans trip abroad and the things
he saw there will be reflected now for
many months in the columns of the
newspapers. The grist has already be-
gun, and the first instalment hears
evidence that a man will see what he
goes out to see. Bryan finds abroad
things that will convince him that the
initiative and referendum are popular
and essential elements of a republican
form of government. 1t works in
switzerland all right. But the small
Swiss republic with it's less than 3,000,-
600 people is only one fifth the size
OF Idaho. and about the size of Massa-
chusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island
combined. whose aggregate population
is nearly 25 per cent greater. 1t is
hardly likely that Mr.. Bryan VIII be
able to convince his party to include
this in its next platform.

BOYS
To PARIS
Hawaiian Singers Will
Have Their Voices
Trained.

Honolulu Is shortly to lose two of
its well known musicians in John Ellis
and William Ellis, who leave in July
on the steamship Mongolia for San
Francisco en- route to Paris.
Both the Ellis boys have decided
upon distinctly musical career
and to this end expect to spend the
next four years in hard study at the
Partisan capital. John Ellis has been
receiving premier instruction here in
recent months from Gerard Barton,
organist and composer, with a view
to ultimately going abroad for the
final cultivation of his voice.
John Ellis. known as the Hawaiian
tenor, has remarkably clear, strong
and sympathetic voice, one which is
believed to be a valuable asset If
properly trained. He has had long
experience before the public. and his
recent appearance at the Opera House
with Madame Slapoffsky in a duet
from II Trovatore showed that he was
endowed with voice peculiarly gifted
for operate work.
William Ellis, equally we'll known in
lthe local musical field, has not the
voice possessed by his brother, but 1t
is one which will show great improve
ment with instruction. Mrs. John Ellis
and child will accompany the young
men, Mrs. William Ellis remaining in
San Francisco for some time.

K|DNAPPER IS
ALSO MURDERER

| The Examiner of May 20 follows up
the story of the kidnapping of a Ha-
waiian girl by additional details of the
history of the abductor.
From murder to kidnapping is the
scope of criminal record possessed by
Illinois Wise, the Jamaica negro who
induced a fourteen-year-o Kanaka
girl to leave her island home under
pretense of adoption. In this case the
intended victim escaped, for the girl
obtained protection from the captain of
the vessel on which Wise was employ
ed as cook, and on arrival in the city
was befriended by Mrs. Haynes of 915
Powell street, to whose house Wise had
the girl conveyed upon the mention
that she was his wife. Last Friday
Judge Murasky delivered the girl from
the negro's clutches by placing her in
keeping of the Society for the Preven-
ton of Cruelty to Children.
But there is another and higher case
against Illinois Wise in which the vic
summer of 1892, when Wise was cook
the vessel lay in the harbor of Homo
lulu a Chinese who had secured pas
sage to San Francisco was murdered
for what money he possessed, and his
body thrown into the bay. Suspicion
fell upon Wise and he was accused of
the murder. He was placed in irons,
and upon the vessels arrival here was
handed over to the authorities. The
Hawaiian Government forwarded eX-
tradition papers and employed Lindley
& Eickhoff. the attorneys, to secure the
negro's transportation back to the is
lands for trial.
Wise employed Carroll Cook, now
Superior Judge, to defend him. The
upshot of the affair was that as there
seemed to be a conflict of jurisdiction
and as the murder took place on board
an American vessel the United States
Attorney here had the negro indicted
for murder by the Federal Grand Jury.
An effort was made to show that Wise
was not amenable to the laws of the
United States, but this failed.
Upon his indictment Wise offered to
plead guilty to manslaughter. The plea
was accepted, and on December 10, 1892,
United States Judge McKenna sentence
ed the negro to the full penalty of the
law-ten years Imprisonment in Fol-
som. Wise served his sentence. Now
he bobs up again as the kidnapper of
young Kanaka girl. He represented
himself to the girls mother as a man
of wealth and position. and secured her
consent TO his adopting the girl and
bringing her up as his heiress. His
real purpose was not laid bare until
he had taken the girl aboard his ves-
sci, where, as has been stated, she
sought and obtained protection.
The circumstances of the murder OF
the Chinese and its consequence Is re-
called to mind by Attorney Henry
Eiohkofr, who related the story yester-

Most of the lights are private affairs and

ERECTING
new PRISON
It Is Capable Of Housing
Two Hundred
Convicts.

Work on the new prison at Iwilei Is
preceding at rapid pace and the first
| and second stories of very business
like appearing Jail are well under
way. The new prison building will
house about two hundred prisoners,
Is built entirely of brick, cement, and
metal, and is located about eighty feet
EVA of the present prison walls.
The cells are arranged in rows on
each side of the building which is
III feet long, a large hallway being
built in the center of the building and
corridor running from this to each
end. On each side of these corridors
the ninety-six cells of the prison are
arranged. The walls Of each cell are
fourteen inches thick and the steel
doors are anchored into the walls Of
the cell. So strong is the precaution
taken to make the cells secure that
1t would be a very difficult matter for.
one to break out of one of them. At
each end of the corridors are OPEN
ings. barred with heavy iron and these
permit the air to circulate freely
through the entire building. Iron gates.
fence off the corridors from the hall
ways of the prison. The building is.
to be three stories high. The roof will
be Of gravel. All floors are of con-
crete. There will be no woodwork in
any portion of the building so that the
danger Of fire will be reduced to a.
minimum.
With walls connecting each end Of the
building to the walls of the prison
yard about one hundred and fifty
feet long by eighty feet wide will be-
constructed. The entrance from the
old prison, which contains the Ward
ems office, to the new prison will be
through an archway in the Eva wall
of the present prison yard. This arch
way will be fitted with strong iron
gate so that the persons confined in
each prison may be separated, a. one
prison, the old one, will be used to-
house long term convicts and the new
will contain those serving jail and light
sentences and persons held as wit
nesses.
Warden Henry states that had this
prison been ready a couple of months
ago Sanchez, the Porto Rican. would
not have escaped. The prison was then
so crowded that room for all of the
men could not be found in the cells
and about fifty, short-time men were
taken under guard to sleep in a pris-
Oh building which Is outside the walls
of the prison proper. They were
marched back into the walled yard
before daylight and it was in this,
dark march that Sanchez managed 70
slip out Of sight and make his escape.
Sanchez was severely disciplined after
being received back into the prison.
