COMMISSIONS ACTION ON
DESKS misunderstood

ct is evident that there was mis-
understanding as to the action of the
Oahu loan fund commission on the
Hchool-desk matter" said Chairman
Andrew Adams of the commission to-
! day, referring to yesterdays meeting.
wsfhe commission did not decide that
seontractors In giving their figures and
making bids on school houses for bids
should include the furnishing of desks
as part Of their bid and Of their con-
tract to be performed. This was sug-
agested as q possible way of avoiding
the disputes arising because Of the
desire OF local firms handling various
types OF desks to get the commission
! to use one type or another. The sug-
gestion, however, was not favored by
the majority OF the commission as be-
ing economical to the taxpayers and
the commission decided not to take 1t
up. The commission will therefore
proceed as heretofore, IL future bids
are to be called involving school desks,
the local firms being asked to supply
the commission with bids on the
desks s,..
Mr.. Adams, who retired as chair
man Of the commission because he is
called to the mainland on business
soon,s will still remain member of
the commission.

The ELEPHANTS TRUNK.
Il May Justly b Called One Of the
Miracles Of Mature.

Il May Justly b Called One Of the
Miracles Of Mature.
The trunk Of the elephant may justly
be considered as one Of the miracles Of
nature. being ut once the organ of res
piration, as we'll as the instrument by
which the animal supplies itself with
food. Nearly eight feet in length. en-
dowed with exquisite %sensibility and
stout in proportion to the massive size
Of the animal. this organ will uproot
trees or gather grass-raise q piece OF
artillery or take up a nut, kill a man
or brush off a fly.
It conveys the food to the mouth and
pumps up enormous draughts OF water,
which. by its recurvature, are turned
into and driven down the capacious
throat or showered over the body. Its
length supplies the place Of a long
neck, which would have been incom-
patible with the support Of the large
head and weighty tusks. A glance at
the head Of an elephant will show the
thickness and strength Of the trunk at
its insertion: and the massey arched
bones Of the face and thick, muscular
neck are admirably adapted for sup
porting and working this powerful and
wonderful instrument.

loud knocking somewhat like the
strokes Of a bell and which ut the end
Of about five minutes becomes SO
strong as to agltate the sand. The ex-
PLANTATION Of this curious phenomenon
given by the Arabs Is that there Is a
convent under the ground here and
that these sounds are those Of the bell
which the monks ring for prayers. So
they call 1t Nakods. which means a
bell. The Arabs affirm that the noise

Philosophers attribute the sound to

the bubbling Of gas or vapors under

Then the prince fired his last shot and

Of Germany. He turned on his heel
