"Slumgum,' in the language Of the
man that works the little busy bee for
a living, is the trash filed wax left
over after the first melting of the comb
has enabled the gatherers to take off
the first skimmings. Up until the
present no way has been devised TO
extract more than sixty per cent. of
the remaining wax, the forty per cent
attached to the trash having u be
thrown away and wasted. By the new
process which is said 10 be so simple
as to be almost startling, practically
every bit of the wax is saved.
Naturally none of those interested in
the process viii give out any definite
description of the apparatus used by
them in this extraction until word that
their prior claim to the process has
been recognized arrives from Wash
ington. To a country with apiaTy In
terests as extensive as they are in Ha-
wait the value of the discovery viii be
considerable.

COMPl AMT AGAINST
QUEENS HOSPITAL

Editor Advertiser: Some months ago
quite controversy was raised in your
columns re the management of the
Queens Hospital but as things gener-
ally go in Hawaii nei died a natural
death from wont of public opinion or
the apathy of the public.
AS a preface to my article now the
writer is able to state that on two oc-
casions he has been an inmate of the
institution in question, and his son
once. On all occasions he is able and
must testify to the courtesy shown by
the superintendent, Mr.. Eckardt, and
also to the kindness and attention
shown him or his by the nurses.
This morning. prior to an operation
that my wife had to undergo, / tele-
phoned to the hospital that I desired
to speak to Mr.. Eckardt to whom 1
wished to give a message to my wife.
The nurse in the hospital Office in
formed me that he was about the
building and would ring me up in a
few minutes Time went on and not
having been rung UP again. the hos
pital was rung up only to be told that
Mr.. Eckardt was down town.
Now, Mr. Editor, the Queens Hos
and also receives a government sub
sidy and for many years exacted a
toll of two dollars from mariners and,
think, passengers. AS resident or
Koolau for nearly twenty years the
writer is able to state that Koolau Ha-
waiians have no confidenc in the in
stitution. AS an Anglo-American, I
protest against the 'star chamber"
methods of the Queens Hospital Of
flee. A person places a son, daugh-
ter, a wife or some other near relative
in the hospital and it is only natural
that he or she should know how the
patient is progressing, and this no hos
pital of any standing would ever dare
to refuse to give out. Has the interest
ed party to wait until he or she hears
the body is at the undertaking par
Tors? But telephone to the office OF the
Queens Hospital and you will receive
no information or even courtesy.
In many letters to the press I have
always contended that there is no pub
lie opinion in Hawaii nei. Owing to
the feeling, or shall 1 say dread,
against the Queens Hospital 1t is the
writer's opinion that some hundred or
one hundred and fifty Hawaiian lives
of Koolau might have been saved had
they gone to the institution, i. e., from
1891 to 1908.
In a small community like this
body is liable to make enemies in writ
ing a letter like this wherein he at
tacks the management Of such well
known institution. To the writer, who
is endeavoring to rectify wrong and
make the hospital to be Of some use
such as it's benefactress intended 1t
should be, it is a matter of perfect in
difference provided he is writing the
truth and ready to back up. his state
ments. The writer hopes that the trus-
tees q fear they will not, as I think
they are too Indifferent and if 50 let
them get out and make room for men
abreast of the times), will put stop
to all star chamber methods in the
Queens Hospital office and thereby
permit a relative to know how the pa
tient interested in is.
Yours respectfully,
HENRY COBB-ADAMS.

New Invention That Makes the A.
cent OF Steep Hills Easy
for TeamA

A novel and important invention the
nrst rolling roadway ever built, has
recently been completed and placed Ia
operation IN Cleveland. ~ mcans Of
It teams With heavy loads are carried
up a G0-foot grade-forward 42o feet
and upward 60 feet In four minutes or
less, says the Columbus TO- state Jour
nj.
In Cleveland. as IN many other cities.
tha wagon route for a large volume
Of heavy tramc Is necessarily mp sew
eral steep grades. The city proper Is
upon an elevation, aud the docks and
several OF the principal railroad sta
tons are AZ the foot Of long inclines
over which several streets lead. on
Factory street. the site Of the first
roadway, the incline for many years
has been traversed by heavy laden
teams which climbed the grade as q
snail's pace and with great dimculty.
Under the new regime the team
draws its load 60 the foot Of the roll
ing roadway and is carried to the top
without any effort AZ all on the part
Of the horses.
The rolling roadway Is a great end
less belt which Is operated by means
OF electric power, and which weighs
90 tons. II Is the invention OF Col Isaac
D. smead, OF Cincinnati
At the top Of the hill there is a
small tower. II Is from this point that
the electric power Is applied. When
the wagons have been clamped % the
roadway at the start the man in the
tower is notified by means Of an cleo
trio signal, and the roadway begins to
move at the rate Of some four miles
an hour.
Ten vehicles can be placed upon the
roadway at one time. The daily ca.
pacity Is about COO vehicles A toll o.
from ten to g cents is charged. For
foot passengers two cents toll is
charged.
Since the completion OF this road
way the railroads IN the vicinity have
begun the erection Of a large ware
house and are planning to put in ad-
dirional team tracks. The activities
in that locality have more than dou
bed.
Another roadway OF this kind Is 20
be built IN the same city at Mandrake
street, at a cost Of 100000. While the
hrst one is built along the grade Of
the hill, this one viii be suspended in
the air. The street VIII be extended
by the building Of an iron bridge and
the rolling roadway viii be at q right
angle to this extension. There win
be substantial iron supports &C feet
high and IL feet apart under the Via
duct.

this new plan OF transportation IL
that It is especially humane TO horses,
