ON Thursday morning shortly after
the train returned from the volcano,
the party embarked on the Ohio and
the ship got away for Honolulu

at leisurely speed along the Hama

the scenery of that coast immensely
They admired the verdure-clothed
cliffs which tower for a thousand feet
In some places from the sea. The
course of the ship was made direct for

POW Err OF THE BOW
Cor"taea from page

ence OF three Engli~hlncn he shot al arrow a
distance Of four hundred and cIghty-two yards.
The penetration Of an arrow IS another IN
teresting matter about which more persons
know very little. Leaving out the thrilling
stories Of the Welsh archers whose arrows
penetrated an oak door five fingers thick, and
the English war shafts which forced their way
through the HarvevIzed armor belt Of the
medieval knight, may come down to the
hard facts OF modern times ana present day
weapons.
\ few years ago il occurred 70 an English
archer Of scientific taste 10 apply 10 MS DO"
and arrow the same kind OF tests when are are
applied TO shotguns. He took eight ot the
pads used Tor gun tests, each pad consisting
Of f0rrX-tive sheets Of the strongest and tough
est paper, tightly bound together by wire
clips and these pads, fastened upon one an
other. he hung against the trunk OF tree.
The charge from a fourteen-bore shotgun,
loaded with smokcleSs powder and one and
one-eighth ounces of chilled No. shot, fired
at . distance Of seven yards, penetrated thirty
SIX sheets.
Then taking = sixty five pound bow that
i. q bow which requires slNty-hye pounds OF
pressure 10 draw the arrow 70 the head, the
archer shot an ordinary target arrow At the
pads. 1t penetrated two entire pads ana
fourteen sheets Of the third; a total Penetra-
ton OF one hundred and four sheets, as against
thlrtv-six for the shotgun
To MANY persons this may seem Incredible ,
but the explanation Is sl1nplc. II does not
mean that bow Is q more powerful weapon
Than q shot gun. but only that the mlsslle-the
arrows better calculated 70 penetrate deeply
than Is the charge Of shot. The shot, beng
made of lead, are easily tiattened, and so en-
larged The deeper they 60, the greater IS the
deformity. and therefore the greater the re
sistance. The head Of the arrow, on the con
trarv. Is Of steel which IS not detormed at all.
Moreover, the total energy Of the charge OF
shot IS exerted over q wide space, with a cor
responding increase of resistance. NE energy
OF the arrow IS concentrated on a small space.

are pushed up on hump" which is
elevated twelve feet five inches above
the yard level, and the cars are shltted
by gravity into the various tracks IN
the classification yard, located just east
of the hump AS the cars reach the
top of the hump they are tagged by
the brakeman, which indicates to the
switchman working the push button ma
chine on which track they are to be
placed. For example, if a train of forty
cars pulls into the receiving yard with
ten cars for Washington, twenty for Bal
timore and ten for Philadelphia tag
reading ''10-4" is placed on the front or
the first ten, indicating that there are
ten cars in the shift to go on the Wash
ington track in the classification yard.
This push button machine is the latest
improvement in the method of switching
cars in terminals. Instead of having a
number of levers to be thrown, some
times requiring quite an exertion, the
switchman in the tower simply has to
push a button to set the switch, the
switches being worked by compressed air.
The classification yard has capacity
of thirty-six tracks, eighteen on the south
side and eighteen on the north SIDE
Each track in this yard also has ca
pacity of sixty-five cars, or accommoda-
tions for 1850 cars.
Through freight trains arriving at
Brunswick from the west proceed around
the south end of the yard on the through
freight track and enter the solid train
yard, which is located to the east of the
classification yard.
Cars found to be damaged when reach
ing the receiving yard are shifted to the
repair yard, located on the north side of
the hump The capacity of this repair
yard is 250 cars.
The new yard, including all subyards,
will cover an area of lis acres, contain
forty miles of yard tracks and twelve
miles of main tracks, having capacity
of 1860 cars.
The old yard will be used in classifying
westbound freight trains, the cars being
classified according TO divisions.
The west bound passenger and through
freight tracks run around the yard on
the north side, the eastbound on the
south side and extend from Weverton on
the west to East Brunswick.

FEARFUL STRUGGLE
ENDS WITH DEATH
JOE SAUNDERS, CHINESE INTER-
PREFER, PASSES AWAY
Local Character Dies at
Hospital After Six Months
Fight to Cease Opium
Smoking

Joe Saunders, the widely known Chinese
interpreter for the Los Angeles and
United States courts and one of the most
unique characters in Southern California
died yesterday morning at the age of SO
years at the Deaconess hospital from
heart disease superindueed by the re-
action following the sudden abstinence
from opium, drug to which the deceased
had been addicted for years.
Saunders was left an orphan in the San
Joaquin valley at the age of 4 years and
was adopted by Chinese laundryman
He was bred among Celestials and learned
several oriental dialects.
This unusual knowledge in a white man
made him useful to the police, and he was
an unfailing source of information to the
authorities when tong wars were in prog
ress. Because of his services to the police
the hlghbinders swore they would kill
him, and numerous unsuccessful attempts
were made on his life.
Although white man by birth and in
stinct, Joe Saunders practically became
Chinese through his early years of con-
that race and he understood the Chinese
character more thoroughly than any other
white man in California. But about six
months ago he determined to free himself
from the shackles of his nauseaus
slavery, and at last succeeded
From the day he took his oath until the
time of his death Saunders never touched
the drug.
1t was the fierce struggle against the
hash-hish that resulted in Saunders
death. according to the physicians who
attended him at the Deconess hospital.
The funeral will probably be held today

The quality of the goods was all right
but the manner in which a pair of trous-
ers clung to the form of DR.. W. G. Per-
cival, dentist, did not suit his aesthetic
opinions on the eternal fitness of things
and as a result the doctor, the trousers
and A. Pryor, the tailor, appeared in
Justice Summerfield's court yesterday.
The court believed itself competent to
pass on the set of trousers, and DR.. Per-
cival was required to don the apparel,
which he did in an adjoining room, after
the ones he was wearing.
His appearance apparently suited the
courts taste, and the DOCTOR was ordered
to pay the bill. which amounted to s..
The case was decided only after much
argument, in which the defendant be-
came involved in a wordy alteration

country. The actual work of building
this new yard, which is three and one
half miles long, has a capacity of 1860
cars and extends from Knoxville on the
west to East Brunswick where it con-
meets with the old yard, was begun in
September of last year and completed
about the middle of October. The present
yard at Brunswick is two and one-half
miles long and has a capacity of $500
cars, making the total length of the ter
minal six miles, with capacity of 6460
cars.
The present yard at Brunswick was put
in operation in 1891. Brunswick has al
ways been the classification point for
both eastbound and westbound freight,
but the roads steady increase in traffic
made 1t necessary to enlarge the yard
facilities at this point to more than
double its capacity and at an expense
of about $1,OOO,OOO. The new yard will
be used entirely for the classification and
handling OF eastbound freight, the old
yard being used for westbound traffic.
The yard is the latest design and UP 20
date in every particular and reflects great
credit on the skill and ingenuity of d. d.
Carothers chief engineer; A. M. Kins-
man, engineer of construction, and J. T..
Wilson, assistant engineer, these three
having direct charge of the work. The
contractors employed were F. H. Glenn
ents & Co, of Philadelphia. Several in
novations were established in the build
ing of this yard and there are number
of subyards which make up the general
terminal improvement.
Freight trains arriving at Brunswick
from points west enter the new yard at
Knoxville, the west end of the terminal,
and pull right into the receiving yard,
which has sixteen tracks, each track
having capacity of sixty-five cars. The
caboose will be cut off the train and will
be run by gravity around the receiving
yard on the caboose track, where it will
be met by the engine, it having been cut
off the train at the east end of the re-
ceiving yard. After picking up it's ca
boose the engine will proceed to the
engine house on what is known as the
engine track, which runs around the
classification yard.
A new feature in the switching of cars
in terminals has been adopted in this
yard. From the receiving yard the cars
