A New Noses starts a New Moses.

Ed. TIE INDEPENDENT:
l notice in your issue Of last eve-
ming some comments on lecture,
delivered at the University of Cali

Of Hawaii and the pc litical rights
OF the Hawaiians. This Moses thinks
that the Hawsiians ought to have
been disiranchised, and that the
Territory should be run by the Sim
telligent," id est, the missionary
class.
We are used to such pro positions
and suggestions from the men OF
the catheders of the learned institu-
tions OF the mainland, but we think
this is the fret instance, in which
Jew has openly advocated the sup-
preston OF q people, the annihilation

and az independent, as the ancestors

wailing to harp and guitar accom-
pauiment. The Hawaiians have
been forced to lump the downfall
OF their independence. the virtual

shown good sense enough not to

or spend the balance OF their days
in praying for return of their Ha.

ce,nent.

The difference between the two well
known varieties of cement, the Rosen-
dale and the Portland, lies in the fact
that the first named is a natural prod
uet and the latter an artificial. The
former is made by burning sbaly
limestone in kilns and grinding the
clinker produced with bur stones TO
a very fine powder, which, when mix
ed with water, soon sets and forms
an artificial stone nearly as hard as
the original rock. Portland cement
on the other hand, is made by com.
bining chalk or some other form of
limestone free from magnesia with
siliceous clay, these materials being in.
timately mixed and made into bricks
which are burned In kilns with coke
fuels at u very intense heat. The re-
sulting clinl5er is ground in the same
manner as natural cement and is much
stronger and sets quicker than the
other.

WHY Frogs Are cola.

Many boys have probably wondered
why frogs are cold to the touch. and
some of them look upon these little
creatures with sort of horror belfey
Ing that they have no blood. But such
Is not the case, for they have not only
blood, hut they possess nerves and car
feel. Perhaps II this were more gener.
ally known there would not be s.
many heartless boys who seem to take
special delight in torturfng frogs and
toads. According to scientists. frogs
are cold blooded because they consume
very little air. 1t Is the same with fish.
es. Without plentiful supply of all
there Is not much animal heat, because
combustion is slow.

He took the manuscript, rolled It up
and stuffed it into his pocket. 1t was
