VAIIAD|UM COMPANY STARTS WORK.
ON CLAIMS NORTHEAST OF KELVIN

forward steadily for the beginning of
this work.
Several springs on and near the
mine site, it is stated, will aggregate
flow of $4,000 gallons of water per
day, which by pumping back would
supply a concentration plant of 100
tons capacity. The Gila river is about
three miles distant which renders the
water subject a matter of investiga-
tion as to the most feasible source to
use. Power may be created by crude
oil or gas engines. An electric trans
mission line is within two miles of
the mine and power might be secur-
ed therefrom.
Recent reports by competent mining
engineers have been especially crafty
ing. j. c. Steele, in closing his report
of recent date, said:
1.-The excellent showing made by the
veins and the valuable metallic con-
tents justify the writer in stating that
it is property of great merit and vast
possibilities"
Vanadium was first discovered in
1880 by a Swedish chemist, in a spec
linen of iron from the ores at Taberg,
Sweden. The pure metal is light,
grayish- white in color, having silver
white lustre. 1t is not affected by air
or water at ordinary temperatures,
does not volatilize at strong red
heat; is fusible with difficulty, but
burns brilliantly when heated in air or
oxygen when thrown in powder form
into flame.
The use of vanadium has spread un-
til now it is used in many of the most
| important industries of the world. It's
chief use is in the production of van
adium steel, which, on account of it's
| increased hardness, tensile strength
and resistance to disintegration, makes
| it most valuable in the manufacture of
automobiles, high speed tools armor
plate and other steel products. Vana-
dunn is also used in dyeing silks and
other fabrics and in coloring art glass.
Vanadium bronzes and other alloys are
also coming into use; they show an in
creased strength, toughness and are
more compact, without any loss Of
electrical conductivity. The bronzes
show resistance to abrasion which
renders them suitable for trolley
wheels and bronze gears

Again in Haste.

Many perosns appear to feel that
they must not wait until the train
stops before alighting. The proper op-
GRAFTON of vestibuled trains automat-
ically prevents accidents from this
cause, but the use of vestibuled trains
is not practicable at all times, partic-
ularly in communication areas, and there
are hundreds of trains in operation ev-
cry day with no protection on the car
platforms except the ordinary swinging
iron gates, which any sophisticated
passenger can open. Thus, notwith-
standing the fact that every car bears
a rotice warning passengers against
riding on the car platform or steps, and
perhaps against alighting before the
ears stop, we see trains coming into
stations every day with the platforms
and steps crowded; and as soon as the
train slows down to point where a
passenger thinks he can save time by
running, he will jump off. The jump
ing habit is most strongly marked, per-
haps, when there is a grade crossing
just before the station is reached. The
men whose route lies along the road
OF street that is crossed often jump off
in squads at a point like this, being
legs. and necks for the sake of saving

VIOLATION Of RULES OF
COMMON SENSE CAUSE
Of NJ ANY ACCIDENTS

Many persons, in travelling, persist
emily violate not only the rules of the
railroad, but also the principles of
common sense, and any man employed
in busy railroad station can tell of
many wholly needless tragedies, of
still larger number of narrow escapes,
and of thousands of foolhardy actions
on the part of travellers. In the
hope of leading some of these unwise
individuals to see themselves as the
railroad men see them, the Travellers
Standard for August calls attention to
a few of the things they do
ignoring All Danger
A business man, finding it necessary
to go out of town, will often allow no
more than the ten or twenty minutes
required to travel from his office to
the railroad station under ordinary
favorable conditions, even though he
must know that any number of things
may interfere with his schedule. He
may have to wait a minute or two for
the office elevator, the street car may
not appear on time or the taxicab may
be late in arriving, and stifl other de-
lays due to traffic regulations or
blockades may be encountered. Arriv-
ing at the station he may find several
other persons ahead of him at the
ticket office, thus causing him further
delay but he finally manages to buy
his ticket, and with but few seconds
remaining before the train is due to
start, he dashes for the platform, only
to find the train under way. Having
overcome the various obstacles in the
preliminary steps of his journey how
ever, he is in no mood to be balked by
the fact that the train is in motion He
therefore attempts to board it at the
nearest available point, without regard
to the location of the car in the train.
II it is the last car and he makes a
misstep or misses the handhold he may
fall, become mussed up and look and
feel foolish-and perhaps he will also
receive a minor injury But the same
mishap at the middle of the train may
end in serious injury or death.
This simple ord-picture will be
recognized by everybody, for we have
all seen the man doing the thing. The
circumstances preceding the climax
may be of infinite variety, but they in
evitably lead up to the possibility of
an accident. In another variation of
the theme, passenger may alight
from train to meet and converse
with friend. The actual starting of
the train is commonly the first warn
ing that he heeds, and he must then
run to board the moving train, or be
left behind.

meeting held on the fourth of June,
1859, up to and including meeting
held on the 18th of April, 1907, per
iod of 48 years, and it is from these
minutes that this brief review is
taken. .....
The first record OF a meeting of the
trustees is dated June 4, 1859, in the
court house, Honolulu. H.. =. ~.
The meeting opened with His Ma
jesty, Kamehameha ", in the chair,
and the following gentlemen present.

petuated in their descendants to this
day, the last surviving member of
that board, Charles R. Bishop, having

The current expenses for 1915 were
made up as follows: Salaries and
wages, $50, 405.60; hospital depart:

doctors, $1474.41; maintenance and re.
pairs, $6571.S0; furnishings, $1101.72,
and insurance, $271s40. ..@ J..
The number of patients admitted
last year was 1906, the average
amount received from each per day
being $1.99, while the average expense
per patient per day to the hospital
was $2.37.
There are certain items in the CAPT
tai account of the hospital that cannot
be spent or used for hospital pur-
poses, except the income therefrom,
for instance: Free bed fund, $45,000j
Grinbaum memorial fund, $4,000. Both
of these amounts must be kept intact,
the income from one being for the
support of endowed beds and of the
other for training school purposes.
1t is here pertinent to note the
daily income and expenditures for
period of four years, viz: ~. @s-- -. =
Average daily receipts, 1912, $4,000;
1919, $2.059; 1914, 1855; 1915, 1892.

1913, 5000; 1914, S2.114; 1915, $2.374.
