The Tenth Infantry surprised them
selves and most others by batting out
a win from the Punahou league team
at Kapiolani Park yesterday afternoon.
The Puns had on almost their first
lineup. being short only behind the
bat. where McCorriston took the place
of Myers. while Cramer was in the
field but for the soldiers, doing good
work against his team and lining out
the one homer made in the game.
In the fifth innings the Leaguers
went up into the air and in a series
Of blunders let three runs in. A dis
position to bunch errors seems TO be
a Pun. habit, spelling effectually in one
innings the good work in half a dozen
others. McCorriston, who has just got
over having his mead cut open by a
bat on the mask, was put out again
yesterday, a foul tip tearing off a
finger nail

Enthusiasm waxed high at the Queen

the two races skated between the boys
There was no lack. of entries. every
boy on skates starHng in the obstacle
race, which had to be run in heats.
The course was four times around the
rink, over one bench, under another,
through a barrel and across stretched
gunny sacks. Lou. Ferguson was the
winner. A potato race was the other
event, being won handily by Alfred
Freitas, the juvenile fancy skater.
The Manoa golf links will not be
abandoned, says w W. Thayer, an
officer of the club. Any report to that
effect is unwarranted and the links
will be used right along for the next
six months at least. None of the en-
ployes of the club have been dismissed,
and a seven hole course at least will
be available
The Tenth Infantry having tasted
blood on the diamond at last are go
ing to keep on while things are coming
their way. This afternoon they play
the Twilights at Kapiolani Park. the
game being timed for 2 o'clock. These
teams are old time rivals and the game
ought to be a fast one with the odds
in favor of the soldiers on yesterdays
showing.
A double header is scheduled for Aala |

quake. To such l would say that the
mild earthquake of the ordinary type produces
much the effect as the passage of a
heavy cart in the street, or of train near
ones dwelling The sound, if any accompanies
it. resembles distant thunder. If one IS stand
ing or walking, earthquakes OF this character
usually pass unnoticed. II seated lying
down the effect is much more noticeable.
Mild earthquakes of this type not uncOm-
mon in the eastern United States, one occurring
about every ten years for a given place.
1t is rare that any damage is done although the
Charleston earthquake of 1886 a notable
exception to this rule In the century before last
severe shocks occasionally visited New-Engl land;
thus in 1927 1t is said that the ground even opened
in cracks few inches in width in Cambridge. What
the effect of such a shock would be Oh the tall
buildings of the New-England metropolis at the
present daV interesting matter tor conjecture.
1t is a prevalent impression among those who
have never lived IN earthquake countries that the
great danger IS that of being swallowed up and
buried alive in an earthquake crack. Such
occurrence while it does sometimes happen, as
the case in Jamaica IN 1902 IS extremely rare
If a person found such crack opening at his feet,
he would not be likely to delay long to watch 1t,
but would certainly get out OF the way soon as
possible.
By far the chief loss of life IN earthquakes is
among the dweers by the sea-shore, especially if
the coast is low and fat Nearly every severe shock
in such region is followed by tidal wave sO-caed.
IS.
the tide has nothing whatever to do with It's pro-
duction. These have been known to reach
d height of thirty to sixty feet above the beach
level and in some cases they have caused the loss
OF thousands of lives Near the town OF AREA on
the coast of Northern Chile there still to be seen
the huge boilers of American man-of-war, the
Wateree, that swept two miles inland on the
crest of the tidal wave accompanying the great
earthquake of 1908 and stranded there.
Next to drowning, the chief cause OF death at
earthquakes is that due to being crushed by falling
buildings. During severe earthquakes IN southern
countries the people, especially the women and
children hasten gather in the churches In case
the roof falls in and the walls collapse, great loss
of life necessarily ensues, the case at Lisbon
in 1z55 and again few years ago in Santiago
Chile The safest place to be during a severe earth
quake is in an open field where in general one IS
not likely to come to any serious harm. II IN
town one should make for the open squares. II IN
a house an open doorway or window IS the safest
place. as one can from there usually dodge most
of the flying debris.
Two Numerically opposed styles of dwellings are
used in earthquake countries The most unusual
of these is well illustrated at Arequipa, Peru among
the Andes at an altitude of nearly eight thousand
feet Here the nights often cold and 1t IS neces

sensitive to earthquake shocks, and often our
attention, especially if standing, would first
be called to the trembling of the ground by
the vociferous barking of all the dogs in the
vicinity.
A curious kind of earthquake is often noticed
in parts of Chile, where the event is announced
by loud roar, but shock whatever is felt.
In this the motion probably consists of
a series of long slow vibrations which on this
account fail to be detected. In Japan, on the
other hand the shock sometimes
a gentle but quick blow such might be delivered
by the upward tap of hammer.
A most unusual phenomenon, experienced only
with earthquakes, IS produced when the
ground is thrown into a series of waves. These
described as six eight inches in height and
several feet in length following another in rapid
succession The effect produces distinct
and considerable difficulty in maintaining erect
position. The rapid and violent motion of the
ground also affects the system and is
extremely terrifying.
The instruments used to detect and measure
earthquakes called usually seismoscopes, seis-
mometers and seismographs, of various forms
The simplest kind consists merely of a vertical
column which is overturned by the shock. Theo-
retical1y it would if the direction in which
the column fell should indicate the direction in
which the shock travelling Such does not
prove to be the in practice, however. In the
of artificial earthquakes produced by the
explosion of buried charges of dynamite, the column
usually falls in the direction of the explosion This
would seem to indicate that the ground first yields
slowly, and then returns sharply to its former
position. In the of natural earthquakes several
columns placed together may all fall in different
directions.
One of the simplest scismoscopes is pan of milk.
If examined at once, the general direction of the
shock is indicated by the milk left adherlng to the
sides of the pan, although cannot tell in which
way the shock going, that is, for example,
whether it was moving due north due south.
Other circumstances will usually settle that point,
however. The height to which the milk rose on the
sides of the pan indicates the force of the shock.
In the case of artificial reservoirs forty to eighty
feet across three and four feet in height have
sometimes been observed. After the great Lisbon
earthquake waves of this character disturbed some
OF the ponds in England, and few hours later the
great lakes in America.
A sensitive form of sesmometer consists OF a
small telescope through which is viewed the refiec
ton of a suitable object in a surface OF mercury.
The best form of ses1nometer, however, consists OF
a heavy pendulum bob suitably supported either
bv one or two wires Various adjuncts attached,
to multiply the amount of the motion and to record
it on paper. The paper is often made to move IN
such a manner to furnish record OF the time
and of the duration of the earthquake. Sometimes
a stiff pendulum rod is used, and is supported by
two threads or wires to vbrate in horizontal

sarv to have warm houses. The better classes live
in stone dwellings whose walls are sometimes two
and even three feet in thickness, while the ceilings
consist of heavy stone arches that the interiors
have sometimes an almost prson-lile aspect. They
are exceedingly comfortable, however, being never
very hot nor vet very cold 1t seems to the visitor
a most dangerous style of architecture; but expe-
re1lce has shown that these solid onestory buildings
are capable of wihstanding the most severe shocks
to which they are ever exposed.
A second story is sometimes added consisting of
a light wooden frame with split bamboos nailed
within and without The space between the two
LAYERS of bamboo is filled with mud and small stones
while the walls pastered with lime, This basket
like structure yields when severely shaken, and
only the lime cracks and comes down. In Arequipa
wood is scarce and is nearly all of it imported from
the United States. In other countries where
earthquakes are frequent, such japan, where the
climate is comparatively warm and wood Is album
dant, the houses usually built of that material
and except among the Europeans brick and stone
are seldom used The low Japanese dwellings
readily Weld to the motions of the soil, and it
only the chirnneys and similar structures that
liable to injury.
During my residence of two years in the
immediate vicinity of Arequipa nearly fifty earth
quakes were recorded. They mostly in the
winter months of June and July, but averaged
throughout the year about one every twelve days
Many were slight that we scarcely noticed them
when we first arrived, but lived there longer
we became more and sensitive to them,
finally almost equaing the natives in this respect
The natives were not only extremely sensitive to
the shocks, but much afraid OF them, rushing
from their dwellings at all hours of the day night
on the smallest provocaton, and without regard to
costume with cries of M1sericOrdid, nisericordfd!"
that is Have mercy, have mercy!" This was
interesting as showing the intense impression
produced upon them by the great earthquake
of 1868, which indeed many of them had not
themselves experienced, but the fear of which was
transmitted to them by their parents and friends.
Many signs of the great earthquake in the form of
broken columns and ruined walls still visible
in the streets of the city, although nearly forty
wears have now passed since the tragic event
occurred.
Certain animals notably dogs, are extremely
