THE CAMEL.

Characteristics Of the Patient, Strong
and Useful Animal.
As far back as the middle Of last
century General Won Moltke in his de-
scriptivc letters from Asia Minor had
many good words to say about the
camel. This ANIMAL" he said. 'can
carry a burden Of nearly 600 pounds
and is used by the nomads and Ara
bians In taking their women, children,
old men, tents, food. water. etc.. from
place to place. It Is able to Withstand
q march Of ten days without drink,
and a fifth stomach ever reserves q
drink for its master in an hour Of ex-
IRENE distress. The hair Of the camel
Is used for clothing and tents. The
milk and flesh are healthy. It exists
on the most miserable food. such as
grass and thistles. Such are the char.
acteristics Of this patient. strong. de-
fenseless and most useful Of all ami
mails
A camel il never relieved Of its load
from the beginning of the journey to
its end. It eats. walks and sleeps un-
der its burden, often for weeks at
time. The training Of camel IL no
easy matter, as it takes about three
years to teach 1t to bend the knees in
order to be loaded and unloaded.
While as the time passes the camel
will not be able to withstand the keen
competition OF the new railways which
are piercing every part Of Asia Minor.
yet. thanks to the power Of tradition
over the Turkish Inhabitants Of the
country and their fondness for these
animals, the caravan routes today are
still able to hold their own side by
side with the Anatolia. Cassaba and
Alden railways. Hundreds Of camels
pass over the caravan bridge into the
city Of Smyrna every day. and In the
market place In front Of the mosque OF
Mohammed at Constantinople many
camels may still be seen.-Philadelphia

The Protection South.

From the New York Tribune.
We said the other day that many
southern leaders were confused in
their notions about tariff taxation be-
cause they had not yet become accus-
toned to the new economic ideas
which have taken root in their sec
ton and altered It's attitude toward
the protection policy. The recent pro-
test Of the Hon. Roger @. Mills
against what he considered an exhi-
bition of "degeneracy" on the part Of
southern senators and representatives
has raised the question whether the
south's spokesman of today are really
degenerate or whether Mr.. Mills is
merely misled by the prejudices of the
past in thinking them so. 1t is note
worthy that his complaint Is echoed
by few influential southern newspa-
pers. He is still honored and respect
ed as q leader of southern opinion at
a time when the south was far great
er power in national politics than it
is now; but it is generally recognized,
tacitly, IL not openly, that the ideas
which he and his associates fought for
in the eighties and early nineties do
not greatly interest the south today.

THE INTERPRETATIONS or Mr..
BEVERIDGE

When Senator Beverage went into
the tariff squabble he announced that
although he was in favor OF protec-
ton he was going to ask questions
And when the senators who were In
tent upon retaining the same rates as
the Dingley tariff or in forcing high
or schedules on commodities did not
show good reason why he should up
hold them, he would fight for revision
Of the tariff downward.
And SO he pursued his course. ask
ing questions, propounding intsrroga-
lions, and when the information has
not been forthcoming he himself has
volunteered the basis on which he has
voted for lower schedules
In this hide controversy with AL
drich ct al, Beverage still asked his
questions. Before he voted on the
measure Mr.. Beveridge wanted to
know whether the shoe duty was to be
raised some Is per cent in case the
tariff on hides was raised. There
upon the dignity Of the Finance Com
mittee. having been trampled on,
there arises champion in the per-
son Of Senator Hale, the right bower
Of the conservatives. Said he:
Il am utterly out of patience with
this persistent attempt Of the senator
from Indiana to induce the committee
on finance to tell In advance what It
IL goinng to do. The senator from
Rhode Island has several times told
the senator from Indiana that the
committee will take up and dispose Of
that matter when 1t reaches it. This
= = positive answer and 1t ought to be
sufElcient For the senator from Indi-
ana continually to urge the chairman
Of the committee to state in advance
to his satisfaction what the committee
contemplates doing or is likely to do,
ID not fitting thing in my opinion for
senator to do
Naturally the Finance COMMITTEES
composed as 1t is OF the little tariff
boosters Of the trust camp do not like
to be questioned. They do not like TO
be questioned because they have diff
Guilty In explaining.
Mr.. Beverage. II we are to believe
Mr.. Hale, has not the right to all the
information on the subject before he
casts his vote. Why not?
Back in this part Of Indiana the
people are more intent on senatorial
representation Of the people than they
are on senatorial dignity even when it
involves the calm and poise OF the
Finance COMMITTEES.
Hence it Is that the rebuko Of SEN
ator Beverage will not hurt him in
the wilds OF the untamed west which
Is not sufficiently effete to take notice
Of the marvels Of the seven wells Of
senatorial dignity which shroud the
operations Of the Finance COMMITTEES.

NEWELL BELIEVES
IN CANNED PINES

That canned pineapples, rather than
fresh ones, are destined to bring fame
to Hawaii, is the belief of Director +.
FL. Newell of the United States Recla-
nation service. In letter to Secre-
tary Fl. P. Wood of the Promotion
Committee, Director Newell says:
fYour letter of April 10 came in due
time and a short time ago L received
the pineapples, for which | wish to
express my hearty thanks. They have
been pronounced remarkably fine. AT
the same time believe that the success
of this fruit lies more in the canned
product than in the fresh, as my own
experience with different Hawaiian
fruits leads me to prefer the properly
canned pines, this being about the only
fruit which / think is improved by
canning.
'sThe reason of this lies probably
in the fact that it is very difficult to
get perfectly ripe pine. Persons who
are unaecustomed TO handling them do
not readily acquire the act of cutting
or opening a ripe pine in the best
manner.
81 am greatly pleased to know that
you could use my report. 1t was in
tended as somewhat formal document.

Dr. John Atcherley, who was ar.
rested IN the editorial rooms of the
Advertiser Wednesday night by Deputy
High Sheriff Chester Doyle and held
over night for investigation, the idea
being that charge of insanity would
be preferred against him, was released
from the police station at 1890 yes
terday afternoon, and was Immediately
rearrested as soon as he stepped out of
the station, by Deputy Sheriff Charles
Rose on warrant charging him with
being an insane person. The warrant
was sworn to by Sheriff Jarrett.
DIR. Ateher1ey protested vigorously
against the second arrest, but made no
other demonstration. He insisted, how
ever, on seeing the warrant, and read
it through carefully, pronouncing it in
proper form. Mrs. Atcherley had been
waiting on the corner for the doctor
to come out of the station house, and
she objected more vigorously than did
he to the second arrest, stating that
he was rearrested because his .aking
into custody the night before had
been illegal. Deputy Sheriff Rose dis
abused her mind of this idea, however,
and she made no trouble. She was in
formed that as charge had been
placed against her husband, she would
be allowed to see him when she pleased.
She availed herself of the privilege by
remaining with him nearly all day.
As on the occasion of his arrest the
night before, DR.. Atcherley's principal

TESTING OF
Guns FINISHED
Service Charges Show That
the Mortars Are
Reliable.

The testing of the big guns of the
Diamond Head mortar battery was
completed yesterday morning, the last
shot being fired shortly before noon.
Service charges were used and the
guns were subjected to as severe tests
as they would be called upon to stand
in case they were used in actual war
fare.
The test was made under the direc-
ton of Captain w. P. Platt, of the
Ordnance Department, who came down
from the Coast on the transport
Thomas for the purpose. Captain Platt
reports unoffieially that the tests were
satisfactory in every way. The guns
and carriages stood the severe strain
put upon them In way to justify con
fdence in them that in case they are
ever needed to defend Honolulu and
American supremacy in these islands,
they will not fail.
The guns were fred with muzzle
elevation of sixty-fve degrees. With
the full charge of powder and shell
this gave a range of approximately
ten thousand yards, the projectiles fall
ing far off in the waters of Waialae
bay.
Even with the full charge the con-
cussion, except within few feet from
the guns, was negligible and the resi-
dents who live near Leah have moth
ing to fear for their windows or glass
ware Only a comparatively few PEG.
pie in town even knew that the big
mortars were being fired. Major Win
slow, who was in his office in the Me-
Candless block, states that although he
listened intently for the sound of firing
he did not hear it. The discharges
could be heard easily enough in the
higher parts of the city, but they did
not seem loud and there was no jar
accompanying them such as is felt
when the big blasts are set off at Ka-
imuki and in the coral along the water
front. Captain Plat states that a
woman and little boy of only about
two years were out at the fort within
short distance of the guns when they
were fired, and the child did not ap,
pear at all disturbed at the shooting.
Within the pit itself in which the
guns are mounted, the conclusion was,
of course, severe, and an immense
cloud of dust was created by the dis
charge of four of the mortars together.
Later on it is the intention of Major
Winslow to have the ground about the
gun pit sodded, and when the guns are
to be discharged, it will be well wet
down. But the water connections are
not yet made. So it was immposible to
take the precaution yesterday of wet
ting down the loose earth.
Some Of the people living along the
beach near Diamond Head report that
they did not even hear the shooting,
the sound evidently being cut off by
the old volcano behind which the NOR
tars are located Others, farther out
beyond the lighthouse, could hear the
scream of the shell more distinctly
than the discharge of the guns.
Captain Platt, having finished his
work here, expects to leave for the
Coast on the Korea, July 20. He will
be back again about Christmas time to
test the Pearl Harbor guns, and says
he hopes that next time he can stay
longer in Honolulu.
