HAWAIIAN WAYS TO Kill MOSQUITOES.

q TATE E~NTOMOLuf IST SMITH, who has been the principal
means of stnrina up the State to the practicabiity as well
as necessity of destroying the mosquito pest, will doubtless
make a trial of the methods used in Hawaii for the purpose. One
method is the use of calcium carbide, which is inexpensive. In
Hawaii there is a species of small fish that feeds upon the mosquito
larvae. 1t might be practicable to import some of these fish to
become native in New Jersey waters, or some American species
might be obtained for the purpose. Trench-digging and the use of
oil have not proved satisfactory. Hawaii points out better methods
of dealing with the pest.

DR.. Cooks attitude upon his second
significant return to the Ian of his
birth within the past two years Is said
to have been cynical and defiant. One
observer read in it: And If I didn't

What, indeed! There is nothing to be
done and there is no need that any,
thing should be done. If a man Who is

Granting that the pseddo-discoverer

begun when he began to hear the

and saw the lavish preparations which
had been made to welcome him.

Cuba's third and perhaps final at
tempt at self-government seems to be
approaching an end. That crisis, which
has twice before beer reached and
necessitated the interference of the
United States, is in sight.
Enthusiasts who declared that the
Gem of the Antilles would succeed,
where so many of the South American
republics had failed, in maintaining a
government and law and order figured
that the fact this country stood ready
to interfere In times of trouble would
tend to balance the volatile Spanish
American character.
Apparently the attitude Of this coun-
try has had anything but a SOLDERING
effect in Cuba, and the opposition has
beer able to use it to good purpose in
an endeavor to embarrass the govern
ment.

Tho Children's Society in New York
has just rescued from virtual imprison-

This world-old fear of mothers con-
corning the effects of a too intimate
acquaintance with the world for sons
has been responsible for other seeming

always wins sympathy. All of them
have been futile, and it has been shown
again and again that the only resource

The worlds amateur and professional
transatlantic and return steamship
record has just been shattered into bits
by the Mauretania. The giant Gu
harder, which, with its sister ship, the
Lusitania, held all previous records
worth while, has completed the
journey from Liverpool to New
York to Liverpool in two weeks, minus
the Sundays, or, to be exact, just
twelve days.
The original record made in the early
part of the seventeenth century was
just about fifteen times as long, with
time taken out for the stops.
Doubtless the time is neal at hand
when the achievement of the Maure-
tania will seem paltry as compared
with more noteworthy ones The dis
covery of a new principle to be applied
to marine locomotion might be made
any day; the idea could be perfected
within the year, and 1912 might see the
journey to Europe and return made in
a week.

EXTRAORDINARY SITUATION

An extraordinary situation has arisen
here out of a dispute between Dr. Lewen-

owing to the chief Rabbits refusal to adj

to Judaism. The board thereupon sus-
pended his priestly functions a the syna

to abide by this decision. declaring that
he held his office by virtue of appoint

he expressed his intention of officiating
at divine worship in spite of the board

Foraker proposes to deliver late this
evening at Marysville, in opening the

members of the Republican state COM

They are also much perturbed over
the statement that ex-senator Forak-

auxiliary. fishing schooner Ada Bell
put: in here last, ntghtrsthe crew told
of a.narrow escape they had on Sun
day OF: being hit by the equilibrator Of
Wellman's airship. 81
Captain, Henry Chirtophsen said
that they were fishing on Nantucket
shoals during fog Sunday morning
when large. dark object appeared.
which they took to be q heavy bank
Of fog. As the object approached.
however, they saw something humping
along on top of the water and the
motor was started just in time to get
the boat out of the way, the airship
passing not over thirty feet from them.
The captain could easily make out the
members of the airship's crew but
neither his crew nor Wellman's he
said, made any effort to speak and
the balloon passed by and was soon
lost in the fog. The crew Of the Ada
Bell did not know that Wellman had
started across the ocean until they
put into port last night.
