1t begins to look as if, slow
ly but nevertheless surely,
that the great fight of the
President backed by the PEG.
pie VS.. the Senate backed by
the corporations was being
won by the latter. This
shows in little things rather
than great at present. The
President asked specially in
his message for four things:
The ratification of the Santa
Domingo Treaty, the cutting
of the tariff on Philippine
products, the passage of the
Statehood bill making two
states out of the four Terri.
tories, and for Railroad regu-
lation. The Senate has al
ready put two of the meas
ures to sleep-the treaty and
tariff-and emasculated the
other two as much as they
dare. The corporation lead
ers, the Aldrichs, the Forak-
ers on the Republican side,
the Germans etc. on the Dem
ocratic side crack the party
whips when necessary or
bolt the party caucus when
necessary to accomplish cor
porate ends. Senators Long,

SEA GULLS COME
HERE BUT Soon LEAVE

Sea gulls are seldom seen In the VI
cinity OF the Hawaiian Islands. The
authorities along the waterfront who
disagree on whether sharks will tackle
a live man In the water, whether the
Minnesota or Dakota can back out OF
the harbor channel II they tie up at
the Naval wharf, and various other
questions OF vast importance to sea-
going men, also cannot reach an agree
menl as to why sea gulls will not re-
main In this vicinity. Some say II Is
the climate; others argue that II is the
food; and, In fact, every other man
had q different reason.

C0(0RED SOLDIERS
CONE ON SHERIDAN
Famous Twenty-Fourth
Infantry Goes To
Manila
has BEST BAND OF ANY
REGIMENT IN U. S. ARMY
MEMBERS OF COMMAND pIsTiN.
GUiSHED THEMSELVES IN
SPANISH WAR AT SAN
JUAN HILL.

For the second time the Twenty.
Fourth, colorej, U. s. Infantry, is Oh
its way to serve in the Philippine Is
lands, having arrived in Honolulu har
Dor late yesterday afternoon on the
transport Sheridan. The transport will
continue its course either this evening
or tomorrow.
The Twenty-fourth Infantry left San
Francisco at noon, January 20, ann
the sail to this port was without I'M
usual event. The transport will put
into Guam on its way to Manila, and
will enter the China Sea by sailing
around the southern end of Luzon.
When the regiment first sailed to Ma.
Mia, two battalions going in 1899 and
the third going In 1900, Company L
was doing service in Alaska, and thus
II is the first time the entire regiment
has been ordered to the orient.
Colonel George p. Borden, command
ing the Twenty.fourth Infantry, camJ
TO Honolulu in 1858, and after spend.
ing year in these islands returned to
the United States on the clipper Dread
naught, which carried a cargo OF whale
oil and bone from the islands. Colonei
Borden has never visited Honolulu
since that time until now.
Captain Thomas Peabody. who com
mands the Sheridan. was also a visitor
to Honolulu many years ago. He Wis.
tied this port while sailing on the 10
lani in 1865. During their present voy.
age from San Francisco, Captain Pea.
body and Colonel Borden have spent
many pleasant hours In telling OF the
Hawaiian Islands as they were when
they first saw them.
Members OF the Twenty.fourth Infan.
try are proud OF their band, whica
they claim is the best in all of tho
United States Army. IL was selected
by the Government to play at the st.
Louis exposition and received the com.
pliments of all who were entertained
by II. The leader Of the band is a
white man, o. w. Thompson.
The Twenty-fourth Infantry distln.
guished itself during the war with
Spain. II was part Of the Third Bri.
gade which made such gallant rec.
ord for bravery on San Juan Hill. where
II lost four commanders In eleven min.
utes. In the Philippines II gave splen-
did satisfaction to the Government, for
the soldiers were better able to with.
stand the dangers of the climate than
we're the white men.
Among the passengers OF Importance
on the Sheridan is Lieutenant-C Colonel
w. F. Tucker. chief paymaster OF the
Philippine Islands. His son, Logan
Tucker. Is well known In Honolulu.
Col. Tucker has just buried one OF his
sons, George Tucker. In the States, and
he went to be with him at his death.

are a number OF colored women. wives

RAD|UA MANS ROOM
AT HAWAIIAN HOTEL
LOOKS LIKE HE'LL.

The room of Sydney L. Cohen at the
Hawaiian Hotel-Number Goat night
looks like hell. Mr.. Cohen is a repre-.
sentative OF Harry Clark's radium
dance and electrical effects and is
making tour Of the world which will
last FIVE years. He will visit all the
different cities of any importance. In
his room for show he has fixed every
thing to be visible in the dark. He is
from New York.
The key-hole surroundings have been
coated with radium-although Mr..
Cohen claims he does not drink - and
can be seen as plain in the dark as II
II were broad daylight. The electric
button for turning on the lights has
been painted with the mixture and is
always visible at night On MIR. Co
hens dresser stands several cans of
radlum which In the dark look like
electric lights with paper around
them. In his clothes closet there
hangs coats and Vests and pants and
hats which look all right when the sun
is shining but change completely when
darkness comes on. Then they are
palmer to eyesight than during the
day-they, too, have been coated with
radium.
Everything about Mr.. Cohen's room
is radium, or has something to do with
II. He carries In his trunks thirty
pounds OF the powder, which is mixed
with turpentine and oil and makes a
sort of a paint Everything imagina.

been covered with the mixture, and
when turned loose among the other
rodents causes such a commotion that
as a result all the other pests leave
the premises.
Every pound Mr.. Cohen has with
him is valued at sos. This radium
powder looks so much like washing
soda before being mixed with turpen.
tine that on a number OF occasions IL
has been taken through the custom
house In New York without duty. The
officials made chemical analyses of
the powder but were unable to deter.
mine what II contained.
Mr.. Cohen will be Joined here by
his travelling partner, p. w. Brown,
who arrives tomorrow on the s. s..
Siberia. with another fortune OF ra.
dun. The radium dance will probab-
ly be put on at the orpheum by local
talent. Mr.. Cohen carries the cos
tunes with him and is a dancing mas
ter.
The radium dance is performed on
the stage in total darkness. The girls,
six in number, dance gracefully to the
music OF the radium dance, from "Piff,
Paff, Pouff," creating an unusual and
interesting effect. The radium dance
was first introduced at the Casino in
New York City. II is now on the Or
pheum circuit.

Cigarettes in the Crimea.

THE general adoption of the cigarette
in England dates from the war In the
Crimea. II frequently happened that
because of their inability to procure
cigars and smoking tobacco the British
officers were forced to have recourse to
the cigarettes OF their Turkish allies. They
found them to their liking as mild smoke
and 1t was not long after their return to
England that the manufacture of ciga-
rettes began.
To the great plague in London tobacco
owes It's earliest adoption. Until then few
persons used tobacco in any form and II
was supposed to be a filthy and shameful
practice Then came the plague and II
was soon noticed that the plague did not
invade the premises of tobacco dealers.
Within few months every one who was
called upon to handle plague patients
smoked. and the tobacco trade, which unit
then had been a sickly industry, became
an important branch of business.

TT MATCHMAKER has invented a clock
~ which has. II is said. never been wound
Tup, as II has no handspring, and its
works consist of but three wheels.
The clock, which Is in the form of a pen
dulum weighing forty pounds. is supported
from the top by a very thin piece of steel
about two inches long and one and a half
Inches wide. The pendulum rods are made
or two different kinds of metal to compen-

set the clock going was to start It swing
Ing. when the force of gravity, indefinitely
maintained by the magnets, did the rest.
This clock has been going for several
months, and will continue to go. the in

tain their magnetism. Thus It would seem
that the clock Is the nearest approach to
perpetual motion yet attained The clock
keeps perfect time, and is not affected in

Civilization Through shellfsh.

TIE famous Tyrian purple the purple
of Biblical days, is responsible for the
] civilization of the southern part of Eu-
rope. The dye Is the product OF a small
shellhsh, each molusk affordlng A single
drop of dye
1t soon happened that the demand for
the dye exhausted the supply of shellhsh,
and the Phoenicians began to seek a sup
ply elsewhere. until they had covered both
shores of the Mediterranean 1t was found
expedient to establish small settlements on
the shores where the supply of fish was
most ample, and in this fashion the arts
and industries were first made known to
the Greeks.
The apt Greeks soon excelled their in
structors, and in the course of time the
glories of Phoenicia were dimmed by the
advancement of those to whom they had
impaired their knowledge.

Spanish Titles.

THERE are two grades of nobility in
Spain. the Grandees forming a special
] class which refuse to recognize those
of newer creation. Titles are openly
on sale and one out Of every thirty-seven
men is a noble.
A mere baronetcy costs but $1,000, while
for double that sum one may become a
viscount Counts have to pay $1,000 for
their title and duke is still higher In
price.
The Grandees comprise the ancient no.
blity. and they scorn even the dukes.
though the man who he's sufficient money
to be able to purchase such title is apt
to be far better off than the hereditary
but pennilSss count.
