whose clothes needed a tailor and a

The Colder Hemisphere.

DR.. George c. Simpson of the Indian
meteorological service at Simla, in In
dia, who asserted that the southern
hemisphere is much colder than the
northern, gives in the Scientific Amer
lean the reasons on which he bases his
opinion. The air is warmed not by the
rays of the sun. which simply pass
through it, but by the earth, which alb
serbs the rays. Now, in the northern
hemisphere there is much land toabsorb
the energy of the sun and to give heat
to the air. In the southern hemisphere
there is much less land, and all the
land within the antarctic circle is per-
manently covered with ice. which forms
a virtually perfect reflector and which
sends back into space most of the solar
energy that falls upon it. Five mil
lion square miles of the earth's surface
in the southern hemisphere reflect into
space a large part of the energy re-
ceived from the SUM fact that in it
self is enough to account for a consid-
cradle difference in temperature.

Exploding Ice.

To make Il piece of ice explode the
first step is to put on a plate a lump of
clear ice about as large as your fist.
Then with n reading glass or the lens
of a magnifying glass focus the suns
rays so that the bright spot of light is
exactly in the center of the lump. In
a little time the ice will begin to melt
from the inside. and after a few mo-
ments a small cavity will appear, for
the ice. having expanded in freezing,
will not take up so much when
melted. The cavity, being entirely sur
rounded by ice, will be a partial vac
uum, filed with a watery vapor of very
low pressure. When you have melted
Il large cavity lay the glass aside and
let the ice melt in the sun. Turn it
occasionally so that it will be sure TO
melt evenly round the cavity. After
awhile the cavity will be surrounded
by Il thin shell of ice. Then, because
of the great pressure on the outside
about fifteen pounds to the square
inch, the thin walls will suddenly
collapse, and the ice will fly in all di-
rections.-Youth's Companion.

.H|LO RAILWAY WHARF
IS DECLARED UNSAFE
Superintendent Filler Excerpts To
Attitude Of Chairman Forbes

Chairman Charles r. Forbes of the
public utilities commission has con
demned the Hlo railway wharf as I'M
safe for public use and advises the use
of Kuhio bay wharf in its stead.
Forbes is reported to have said that
on account Of the piles, the railway
wharf is unsafe. He noted this as
soon as he arrived in Hilo and took
occasion to telegraph to the attorney
general to find out what his power
was for the condemning of the struc-
ture. He was informed that so far as
the wharf was used for public utilities
he had power to act. Forbes there
upon declared his intention ct going
after the condition of the wharf
X. W. Filler, superintendent of the
railway, took exception to the remark
of Forbes and said that the structure
was not unsafe else he would not au-
thoriZe the placing of many thousand
tons of sugar and other freight on it,
to say nothing about trains and locomO-
tives. The repair or reconstruction of
the wharf is up to the directors of the
road and they are said to be consider
ing the expenditure of more than
100000 on it.
