Lawrence, as You know. These young
friends of mine have prevailed upon
doting fathers and mothers to buy

great difficulty which they encounter
is to keep supply of ammunition on

TRlUMPHED OVER HARD FATE
Example OF Florian, Great French
Engraver. Should Be Inspiration
to the Unfortunate.

Seldom has there been seen a more
inspiring example of indomitable en-
ergy ,triumphing over fate than that
which the engraver Florian Is now
giving 20 the world
Six years ago, while at work upon
the designs for the new French bank
notes, he was suddenly stricken
by paralysis. His right side became
as II dead; he was bereft of speech;
the hand whose skill had made him
famous was useless forever Did he
complain? Did he resign himself to
the inevitable? Did he sit down In
despair and allow his young wife and
daughters to support him? Not for a
moment. He let the women work. 1t
is true, but only while he learned
to engrave with his left hand.
Hour after hour. day after day,
month after month he passed, strug-
Cling with that awkward. unframed
left hand. drawing at first crudely
like a child, then with ever-increasing
precision. Gradually he educated the
refractory member to obey his will,
Drawing, water-color painting, design.
Ing for typographers succeeded one an
other, until today he has again at
tanned absolute mastery over the
graver's tools. Arsene Alexandra, the
famous art critic, saw him at work a
few weeks ago, his wooden block
screwed to table. his left hand ply
ing the tools with all the deftness his
now dead right hand formerly pos
sessed. his speechless lips smiling.
and his face radiant with happiness.
To man like Florian fate has no
terrors. Such men cannot be con-
quered. And If ever labor should
erect its Pantheon, Florian is worthy
Of high niche among the heroes of
work.

Two Kinds Of poIna.

A subject that naturalists are al
ways talking about and never coming
to any conclusion about Is the differ.
ence between instinct and reason We
are accustomed to say that animals do
things by instinct and man by rea.
son. But 1t is quite sure that some
animals do some things by reason and
by instinct. And It also seems quite
sure that there is no sharp dividing
line separating these two kinds of do
ing. Perhaps one of the most useful
distinctions between instinct and rea
son Ia to consider as Instructive all
those things that animals can do with
out having had a chance to learn them
by imitation or by being taught or by
any other kind of experience; and to
consider as acts of reason those things
that animals learn to do and that they
think about while they are doing them,
at least while they are doing them for
the first few times. This distinction
sounds pretty clear In theory. but the
difficulty is to know how to apply 1t In
practice.-St. Nicholas.

This leaves 1863, 519.16 available for

estimated that they Will have earned
that amount by February /. 1910 It
follows. therefore, that unless addl.

Gus setback to the project of develop
ing the Pearl Harbor station. WORE
Is now progressing under a contract
for the construction of the dry dock.
and the plans of operations adopted
by the contractors for this work are
such as to indicate that it will be COM
pleted within the contract time of
thirty-four months, which expires Nav
%, 1912. A general plan for the de-
velopment of the station has been
approved, including piers and slips,
sea walls, railroad, water system
power plant, storehouse, machine
shops, ETC., and it is extremely inn
portant that the channel be completed
at the earliest possible date, in order
that material can be transported by
= water to the station, and that naval
vessels can safely enter the harbor.'

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1910-01-31

Cable news was received here early
in the month that it was expected
that the Pearl harbor work would be
completed by July, 1912. The mali
by the Alameda brought deralls of a
report on the progress of the work,
containing the following statement:
ct is hoped, and confidently ex-
pected, that the Pearl Harbor station
will be ready to take care of the fleet
by July 1, 1912, if the necessary funds
are made available as required"
The Report from which the above
is quoted gives tables showing that
from March to October, 1909, 996,563
cubic yards were excavated from the
Pearl Harbor channel, at a total cost
of $7O7,65O.51. Commenting upon
this, the Report says:
From these tables it will be Oh
served that the progress required by
the contract can not be maintained
unless an additional Appropriation
is made and becomes available anc
in advance of the regular naval ap
preparations, July 1, 1910. 1t will be
observed further that the actual prog
ress is very much in excess OF thai
required by the contract, as the con
tractors had removed at the end o.
June, 1909. 524.815 cubic yards of mo
terial, while the contract required
only 273.19S cubic yards to he re
lnoyod during tie first 81 u~07tEc
or by June "a, 1909 During the sec
ond six months the removal of AIS,
797 cubic yards is required by the
contract, which amount has ALREADY
been exceeded during the first foui
months, the actual amount dredget
during July, August, September. an'
October being ATLAS cubic yards.
