Enormous Rainfall in Hawaii.

The rainfall on the island Of Hawaii
varies greatly. ranging from the enor-
nous downpour of 353 inches year in
the upper Waipio Valley to 20 inches
on some of the slopes of Hualalai The
only surface streams on the island are
found along the northeast coast be-
tween Hilo and Kohala. Waipfo River,
according to the United States Geologi-
cal Survey. is the largest stream on the
island and has been partly developed
for irrigation. At Kapoho, on the east
point of the island, warm water flows
from seams in the rocks. These warm
springs flow into pool about 100 feet
long, rs feet wide, and 20 feet deep.
The pool is entirely surrounded by
rocks and it's color vaIes in shade from
beautiful blue to violet. WafapeIe, or
Green Lake, is a body of fresh water
in the pit of an old crater near Kapoho
This lake covers an area of about S
acres and is fed by springs below the
surface. A pumping plant takes water
from this lake for domestic use and for
irrigations

FLIRTING With Euclid.

For him who will look there is no
end to the entertainment to be derived
from street car dramas. And the dra-
mas are of endless variety. There is,
for instance, the high school girl enact
Ing the last scene but one of her thrill
ing battle against the original geom-
etry proposition. Being conscientious
about her studies, as most girls are,
she had resolved to MASTERY the brutal
thing before supper last evening.
Friends interfered. however, and kept
her talking until too late, which is a
victory for the villain. After supper
there will be plenty of time, though.
Locked In her room. secure from intru-
sion, she will have it eating out of her
hand In half an hour. At the critical
moment call to the telephone could
mot be ignored. Then geometry was for
gotten in her anxiety to solve the great
er problem of what to wear and how to
wear 1t. His imperious ring on the
doorhell forced a decision, but she was
not lost for just as she prepared for
the grand entrance, she was seized with
an idea--a brilliant idea. He was equal
to anything, provided, of course, that
he could be induced to try ii. She
would vary the usual conversation with
reference to geometry. He would
boast. She would produce the book
and he would show Euclid some new
short cuts. 1t so happened that other
subjects of colossal Importance came
up just as she was on the point of
mentioning school. And after she had
sent him home with a diffident yawn
she was too sleepy to do any more than
toss the book on. the hall table so that
she would not forget it in the morn
ing But one possibility remained-the
chance that some magic in the street
car would make the thing as clear as
the morning sun. She started we'll. but
had to change her seat on account of
an irresistibly beautiful hat worn by
a woman across the aisle. But she
was no sooner settled in her new seat
than she made the alarming discovery
that. in spite of his hasty glance away.
a man had been looking rather openly
at her. Perhaps it was her complexion
which was often admired, or perhaps
it was something else-she had dressed
in hurry. Whatever the cause. a
large mirror quickly became an I'M
perative necessity. She sat with an
air of intense self consciousness until
the car stopped in front of the den of
her geometry teacher A glance at a
mirror proved that it must have been
her complexion; and perhaps a geom-
etry lesson more or less is not such a.
vital question after all. but the last
scene is better omitted

Geological Survey Not Restricted to
Public Lands,

In the Thirty-fifth Annual Report of
the United States Geological Survey,
made public today, Geo. Otis Smith, the
Director, discusses particularly the pro-
vince of the Federal Survey. An amend
ment which was offered In Congress to
last years appropriation bill would, If
passed. have restricted the geologic work
of the Survey to the public lands. AS
the amendment failed the only result
was to attract more attention to the
basic investigative work of the Survey,
which embraces all the lands Of the
United States, the privately owned as
well as the public lands. The examina-
ton of private property for private pur-
poses is forbidden by the organic act of
the Survey, but the examination Of pri-
vate lands must be included in any gen.
eral investigation The determinative
factor in the whole matter is whether
the investigative work on privately
owned lands yields results that are
merely of local and personal interest or
results that are of general and national
value. Land ownership is only an Incl
dent when large questions of natural
resources are considered. The special
interest Of the Government in it's own
landslide public lands-being granted,
it must be added, as was suggested last
year by Representative Sherley at a
hearing before the House Appropriations
Committee. that $50 far as the develop
ment of the mineral resources of the
country is concerned, it is just as i'm
portant to know the resources of pri-
vately owned land as of Government
owned land" When it is remembered
that in the First Annual Report Of the
Geological Survey Director King prophe-
sled for the United States future an
nual output OF mineral products having
a value Of a 81 ,ooo. 100000. and that the
present production is two and one-half

Mexico's Red Paper.
(New York Times.)

Mexico now takes its turn to publish
an official paper of its own appro-
pirate color, red Mr.. Carranza's
statement of the same hue~printed in
the Times probably gives us fair
idea of its contents. The formal paper
is said to set forth the details of a
conspiracy against the first chief Of
the Constitutionals, who, by the way.
now declares that the constitution for
which he was fighting is a matter for
future consideration, and that the
work of pacifying Mexico must proceed
without it. Carranza, in his personal
statement, distinctly accuses Villa of
killing Benton. He also places upon
his former adherent the seizure of the
Terrazas estate in Chihuahua, although
he surely can not charge Villa with
the robbery in the house of Mr.. Creel,
the son-in-law Of Mr.. Terrazas, in the
capital the othersday, as that was per-
formed by Carranza's own police. The
persecution of the Spanish residents
of Mexico and of the priests, too, it
now appears, was wholly the work of
Villa. Carranza washes his hands of
all these matters, in which 1t seems
that he formerly took pride. Villa
has been all along the wicked part
ner" of the firm.
1t is needless to say that after this
statement from the capital any efforts
the convention at Aguascalientes may
still care to make to settle the quarrel
between the two leaders will be at
tended with new difficulties. Csrranza
accuses Villa of making friends with
the men who overthrow Madero, ana
particularly singles out General Ang-
eles as an undesirable person. Angeles,
however, has been successful in per-
suading Zapata to send delegates to
the convention, and it is not likely
that their presence In the delibera-
tions will greatly serve Carranza.
washington still regards CarranZa
in an amiable mood. 1t is believed
there that he will give over the gov
eminent at the conventions behest,
and thereafter run for president. If

Gasoline from Natural Gas.

The extraction Of gasoline from
casing-head gas natural gas from oil
iwells) has become one Of the important
adjuncts of the natural-sas Industry in
the United States. The production is
increasing rapidly. the quantity pro-
duced in 1918 having almost doubled
that of 1912. owing to the. installation
Of greater number of plants and to
the advance in the price of gasoline
The uses of natural-ga gasoline are
many and varied. 1t is principally used
for raising the standard of naphthas or
low-grade distillates consumed in mo-
tors; 1t is also used for lighting; and
1t can be used like regular gasoline In
all the arts. There is an ever4increas-
ing demand for this gas to be used in
automobiles.
