TO SEE THE SOUL WEIGHED.
If Your Weight Is $50 Pounds You
Have 30 Ounces of Soul.

A new theory of the life after death
was propounded by-SFournier d'Albe,
Secretary of the Dublin Society for
Psychcal Research, to an audience of
Spiritualists in London recently.
D'Albe, whose previous work in science
and psychcal research has been com.
mended by Sir Oliver Lodge and Sir
William Crookes, believes that the soul
of man is an aggregation of "psycho-
meres,' or soul particles, inhabiting the
individual cells of the human body.
"These psychomeres, he said, fare
probably Opaque to ultraviolet light,
and, therefore, may some day be made
visible by more powerful optical means
than we at present possess. They will
then be weighed and measured also.
Their weight will probably be found to
be about one thousandth part of the
weight of the body"
After death ID 'Albe 4" psychomeres
unite to form the "soul BODY and are
from their nature suited to the en-
vironment of the earth s atmosphere,
in which, he believes, they float. They
have consciousness and power of loco
motion or energy, which, as ii must be
derived from some source, is probably
obtained from the ultraviolet rays of
the sun.
D'Albe argued that as the "soui
body subsists on sun rays it requires
no digestive organs and has no need
to struggle as material body does for
food. Having thus lost the incentive
to compete for existence the "souI
body" retains higher quality of com
petition in mutual service. The "soul
body" according TO D'Albe's theory,
is, therefore, engaged only in cultivat-
ing the higher virtues of justice, kind
ness and sympathy.
Following this line of argument,
d 'Albe maintained that the atmosphere
was inhabited by the souls of those who
have lived during the past 10000 years.
"The realm of souls" said he, sex.
tends upward from where we stand and
is as thickly populated as the earth"
After 10000 years of this soul ex-
istence in the atmosphere, D'Albe sug-
gests, further transformation into a
state of existence suited to the en-
vironment which is to be found in in
terplanetary space, implying as one in
the audience pointed out in the discus
sion following the lecture, the final
eosmic union of all souls and all ages

TEN THOUSAND SAVED
IN NUUANU DAM WORK

Some parts of the Nuuanu dam work
have gone far enough ahead to enable
the Department of Public Works to
figure on what part of the appropria-
ton has been saved in these places to
apply to other work ON the reservoir,
while changes in plans, as allowed by
the contract, have effected other saw
ings, in all approximately ten thousand
dollars. This will be used to carry on
other work in the reservoir site.
On the spillway work, for instance, it
was found that the cut reached down to
bedrock, and there is no necessity of
putting in 20S0 square yards of stone
paving that had been figured on in the
plans. 1t has been decided, too, that
the extension of the wooden corewall
completely through the dam is unneces-
sary, so instead of having to pay for
81, 700 feet of redwood the government
will have bill for only $4,000. The
masonry wall work on the spillway has
also been decreased by 1865 cubic yards
and that item in the contract which
called for the grassing of the outer
slopes of the reservoir dam has been
wiped out because the dam has been
in place where the grass was needed
SO long that nature has undertaken the
job and made the slopes look like a
hay field.
The rains of Sunday gave the con
tractor two days sluicing and two thou
sand yards of the red earth came down
the sluice boxes and piled up on the
fill. Then the water gave out and the
work stopped again.
The ten thousand dollars saved on the
dam will 60 a long way toward helping
in the clearing of the seventy-two acres
in the reservoir site, although when this
clearing work will commence depends,
like the rest of the work, ON the
weather.

SCHOOL PROGRAM

Mainland schools are taking up the

novel maner, and the Promotion Com

In the last mail the committee received
dainty little note from the principal

school, enclosing colored drawing
sketch, copied by one of the scholars
from the cover design OF the Hawaii
folder Showing Hawaiian canoe in
the foreground with cocoanut trees in
the background). Written upon this
drawing was the program of an after

A PRICE ON sun
YET SEN S HEAD

DR.. Sun Yet Sen, the Chinese revolu.
ZIONIST, whose wife and mother are
about to leave Hawaii and 90 to Japaa,
has a price of 100000 taels on his
head, according to the Japanese papers
1t would seem that the revolutionist
from Hawaii is in peril not only from
the Chinese government itself, but from
secret foes and sneaking assassins. The
Japan Weekly Times has the following
concerning the matter:
With regard to the poisoning affair
at the Minpao Office, the headquarters
Of Chinese revolutionaries in Toxic, it
is now reported that three suspicious
characters have been arrested. The
whereabouts of Wang, however, is not
yet known. On Monday domiciliary
search was conducted which resulted
in the discovery Of case containing
drugs. The police, it is stated, regard
the case as an excellent clue. Rumor
says that the Chinese government is
trying to annihilate the revolutionaries
by offering rewards to those who as
sassinate them. According to the ru-
NOR, 100000 taels is offered for the
head of DR.. Sun Yet Sen, 100000 taels
for Huang Hsing, 10000 tales for
Chang, and 5000 taels for any revolu-
tionary. Wang once belonged to the
revolutionary party but has been bought
up by the government and has been
trying to put Chang to death for the
purpose of obtaining the prize of 10000
taels.
On November 90 all the inmates of
Minpao Office, Shinogawa.machi, Ushi-
gone, which is the publishing house of
the Chinese revolutionaries' organ
Minpao, except one Tang, and a maid
went to the local court, where the tria
of one of their party was held, wher
one Wang, who once belonged to the
party, came to the house. Though he
once belonged to the revolutionary
party, Wang does not associate with
the revolutionaries and is regarded by
them as an official spy. On that oc
casion Wang spent some hours witt
Tang in conversation. Wang brought Q
bundle of tea and asked the maid tc
prepare it. But Wang did not take Q
cup. After Wang was gone the mait
took a sip of the tea and Immediately
began to feel a pain in her stomach
1t was found that the tea contained
poison. So it is supposed that Wang
came to the house for the purpose OF
poisoning these revolutionaries.
On Monday another case in which
life was lost took place at the same
house. An inmate of the office, Tene
by name, came home about four in the
afternoon on the dav in question ant
took cup of tea, using the hot water
in the kettle on hibachi, and soon be
gan to feel great pain in his stomach
A doctor was at once called and every
means was taken to save the man from
death, but little later he died. The
true nature of the matter is not yst
fully known and official investigation,
are in progress.

KOCH's SILENCE VERY
PLEASANT TO ATCHERLEY

Doctor John Atcherley, NJ. R. c. s., L.
R. C.P. London), considers that DIR.
Koch, the German savant and bacter-
iologist, endorses the theory he has con-
corning the causation of leprosy. That
DR.. Koch s approval is decidedly of a
negative nature fails to mar DIR. At
cherley's self-congratulation. He has
presented the Attorney General Is de-
partment with his theory all printed
out on a poster and adds at the bot
tom of the broadside the following, in
his own handwriting:
CDR. Koch hired special steamer
to convey him to Kalaupapa on the
2Srd of May, 1908. During his visit
he investigated on the statement of
the above theory. He must have been
convinced for he has never written an
opposing opinion.

GROWING FIGURES OF
TUBERCULOSIS VICTIMS

In response to request from Gov
'ernor Frear, the Acting Governor has
tabulated the Board of Health statis-
tics of the deaths in Hawai- from tuber-
culosis during the past ten years. The
figures show an alarming increase, tho
proportionate increase in the other is
lands being much greater than in Ho-
nolulu. This would lead to the sup
position that it is among the Japanese
that the white plague seeks the most
of its victims in Hawaii although the
statistics have not been compiled on
lines of nationality.
From June 80, 1899, to June 80, 1908,
the number of deaths from tuberculo-
sis in Hawaii have been 1891. In 1899
the number was 149; last year the
number was 351, over twice that of
ten years before. During the period
the population increased, according to
the statistics of the Governors report,
from $4,000 in 1900 to 10000 at pres
emit, small proportionate increase.
According to localities the increase
in deaths from tuberculosis are: Ha-
wall, from Is in 1899 to 81 this year;
in Kauai, from to 90; in Maui, from
5 to go; in Oahu, outside of Honolulu,
from to 90; Honolulu, from 11S to
145.
