Yuan Shih-Kai is considered one OF
the ablest officials of the Chinese I'M
perial Government and one whose IL
deity to the throne is undoubted. He
has displayed much military ability
and much organizing ability. He is
about 81 years of age and originally
came from the province of Human. he
began his career as a military officer.
He was afterwards Minister to Korea
He was afterwards Viceroy of Shan
tung province and governed with abll-
ity
AS a military man he showed his
ability by organizing what is undoubt-
eddy the best military force in China
1t was his troops that occupied Pc
king after the withdrawal of the allies
following the Boxer outbreak.
Yuan succeeded Ii Hung Chang as
Viceroy of Cheli in 1901. He is Lii
Hung Changes natural successor both
in ability and in fidelity to the Man
chu dynasty, which probably could not
maintain itself but for him.
That the Dowager has called him to
that post is evidence of her recogni-
ton of his fidelity, and may be a rec
ognition of real danger to her power.
Cheli is the province in which Picking
Is situated.

JAPAN FINDS GRIEVANCE.

TOXIC, August 26-The Japanese
Government, as a result of it's investi-
cations into the shooting of Japanese
seal poachers by United States Rev
enue Service men at the Prebiloff ISL
ands last June, has reached the con-
clusion that the shooting was unpro-
voked.
The American Government at Wash
ington has been notified of this con-
clusion
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1907-08-26

Numerous attempts at seal poaching
in the Prebiloff Islands by Japanese
have been detected in the past two or
three years by the revenue or naval
service of the United States, which
owns the Prebiloff Islands and claims
the right to preserve the seals that re-
sort there.
AS the Japanese Government has
found to its satisfaction that the
shooting in June was unprovoked, it
will doubtless demand reparation and
may add this to her other causes Of
complaint against America.

Lessons to Learn.

Learn to laugh. A good laugh is
better than medicine
Learn to attend strictly to your own
business-a very important point.
Learn to tell story A well-told
story is as welcome as a sunbeam in
a sick-room.
Learn the art OF saying kind and en-
couraglng things, especially to the
young
LEARN to avoid all ill-natured re-
marks and everything calculated to
create friction.
Learn to keep your troubles to your
self. The world is too busy to care
for your ills and sorrows.
Learn to stop grumbling. If you
cannot see any good in the world, keep
the bad to yourself.
Learn to hide your aches and pains
under pleasant smile No one cares
whether you have the earache, head
ache Or rheumatism
Learn to greet your friends with a
smile. They carry too many frowns in
their own hearts to be bothered with
any OF yours.

Uses of Old Kid Gloves.

Old gloves should not be thrown
away as soon as they are discarded, for
they are still useful in a number Of
ways after they are no longer fit for
wear. Probably everybody under
stands their value as protection for
the hands in cleaning a sewing ma
chine, and most persons have few
glove fingers laid away in reserve for
use in case the hand is injured, but
bits Of glove kid may be utilized in
many ways. .,
They are excellent for applying
dressing to kid shoes, for making
watch cases and pen wipers, and for
tying over the tops OF bottles in travel
ing to keep the stopper secure. Sus
penderS may be mended with kid.
Spectacles, jewelry and the finger nails
polished with it, Strips may be cut
from the clean part OF the wrist Of
long cloves, these strips to be neatly
stitched upon the edge Of the collar
cuffs and belt Of tailor-rnade gown
as an appropriate finish Also little in

To Find the Horsepower.

A rule for finding horsepower OF a
pulley is to multiply the circumfer-
ence of the pulley In feet by the revo-
lutions per minute, and the product
thus obtained by the width of the belt
In inches and divide the result 10y 600.
The quotient will be the horsepower
which the pulley Is capable of trans
hitting. This rule is founded on the
fact that good, ordinary single leather
betting, with tension of fifty five
pounds per inch wide, will require fifty
square feet OF belt surface passing
over the pulley per minute for one
horsepower Fifty square feet per
minute are equal to a belt one inch
wide running 600 feet per minute.
