MEANT 1T FOR THE WIrNEso.

While Thomas Field was in the

sizes recently, charged with breaking
a pawnbroker's window and with
theft, he picked up stool in the
dock and hurled it with great vio-
lence at the presiding judge. The
stool struck his lordship's deck, and
glancing off caught the judge above
the eye. His lordship Immediately
retired to his private room. After
an absence Of about five minutes his
lordship returned. Addressing the
prisoner his lordship said: 'sDon't

STRANGE WORK OF NATURE.

One of the strangest sights in
nature is the petrifed forest at Al
bany, in Australia. In that strange
wood, the trees and their branches
are Of gray stone. It is suggested
as an explanation of the strange
phenomenon that in the depths of
past ages the forest was in full vegc-
tation, and then through some up
heaval Of the earth it was buried in
sand. Little by little water acting
on the sand penetrated the branches
and solidifed. The wood gradually
disappeared under the layer of stone,
and in time took it's form. Then in
succeeding years the winds again car
ried away the sand, and the forest
appeared anew, but of stone.

WEALTH ALSO MEANS WORRY
Troubles, From Which tho Poor
Are Happily Freed.

There appears to be almost as
much worry and gloom among rich
Americans this year as there was
three or four winters ago. During
that period the friends Of an exceed
ingly wealthy man, noting that he
appeared to be suffering from ex-
treme mental depression, asked the
reason, and he replied: "No wonder
I am feeling blue. I have 81, ,20O,-
900 in cash lying in bank, on which
I can't get more than four per cent.
interest"
A sufficient cause for worry, no
doubt. Yet there are other rich
persons in equal distress. One OF
these, the wife of prominent Off
cial of the government, is said to be
greatly worried over her jewels. Sho
has more of such articles, it is stat
ed, than she can look after, the re-
suit being that she has had to em-
ploy help to care for them. Accord
ingly she has instituted card cata-
logue system, which gives record
and description of every piece Of
jewelry she owns, together with
notes showing its need of repairs or
cleaning. Yet even this help prob
ably cannot relieve the grinding
worry that comes from the sense of
possession.

LONELY LIGHTHOUSE.

The most northern lighthouse in
Great Britain, the northwest tower
on the coast of Shetland, is one of
the most interesting of latter-day
sea marks. 1t is built on rock 200
feet high, the summit Of which bare
ly affords room for the necessary
buildings. The rock itself has the
appearance of a gigantic iceberg,
perched on its narrow summit, ap-
pears more like an ordinary white
hat on q giants head than anything
else. Yet the tower is no less than
so feet high, and costs over $3.50, 1000
to erect.

SEAT OF HUNGER AND THIRST.

Whether the hunger sense has its
seat in the stomach and thirst in the
throat has been a subject of much
scientific controversy. The italian
physician, Valenti, now puts the
seat of both these emotions in the
gullet; he found that cocaine in
lection in the oesophagus (the chan
mel from the mouth to the stomach)
resulted in immediate suppression
of the feeling of both hunger and
thirst. Savages have long known
that the chewing of coca leaves rem
ders the gullet insensitive and de-
stroys any desire for food or drink.

attend church. He is after that fifty
six per cent.
Referring to his work, Rev. Cop
is quoted as saying: THE idea of NOV

QUICK MAIL DELIVERIES.

Complaint has been frequently made
at this office against the deliveries of
mail ut the postoilice. This is not
necessarily complaint lodged against
the post Office officials.
Business men find with the increase
in the number of steamers now arriy-
ing and departing from and to the
coast, that they are unable, as in for
mer days, to answer, by the steamer
leaving in the afternoon, letters ar
irving on boat in the morning De-
livery of the incoming mail is slow.
II is admitted in this connection
that the difficulty is no doubt due to
the very large increase in the amount
of mail to be handled.
The point is very important one,
particularly on account of the cx
panding business of the city aud Ter
ritory, our distance from the Pacific
Coast, and the higher rate of speed at
which business has to be done these
days. Putting It off till the next boat
is not such simple matter as for
merly.
The Bulletin would suggest that
the business organizations take up the
subject with the postoficc officials in
the city, first with view to increas-
ing the office staff to cover the rush
periods. and also to revive the scheme
once very generally discussed of hav-
ing postal agent on each of the mail
steamers coming from the mainland.
Letter pouches are now given quick
dispatch from an incoming steamer,
but the volume has reached such pro-
portions that Honolulu has good rea-
son to ask for sorting the mail before
II reaches the city.
We have not the slightest doubt that
the postal authorities will cooperate
with the people of Honolulu in every
way possible to secure an improve
ment of the service.
