Description Sent From
Kurawa Australia.
Facts Had Been Known to Natives
Atone Roots Near Surface
Are Reservoirs.
Comos" prints a letter from M. J.
GarnW rho writes froai Kurawa. Aus
tralia, a follows: "Hen? I a fact that
is not well known even In, this cran
try. Wo couM not imaKlno how th?
natives here mannsre to Hvp without
water: we are told. Indeed, that they
had to K?t alons with the rain-waicr
that collects, once or twlcv. a year. In
the hollows of rocks; hut this explan
ation seemed altogether Insufficient.
and I continued to Ret all the Informa
and from a few ne?rroes that knew a
little English. Rut these latter could
tell me nothing. Finally a Protestant
missionary, rh Rev. Ilarton Parker,
put me in communication with a better-informed
native, who toM us of
the existence, in this country, of a
tree whose roots arv Impregnated lth
fresh water: and as they spread out
near the surface of the ground. It is
easy to pry them up with n points!
stick. ' They are c.irrjcd along on a
journey, and when the dryness Is ex
treme th natives collect in tho re
gions where these trees are the most
abundant.
"I at once t about Hading these
trees, and we had the good fortune to
discover some In a place called Winder
mere, between I!lack-ilag and Kurawa.
The loaves of the tree, although It
grows in rocky places, are cxtrtnicly
green; it.s wood is soft compared with
that of the olher trees ofthe country,
which is generally very hard; Its Mow
ers are as large as a ten-aou piece and
are greenish; tho fruit Is of the size
of a small wild cSierry; finally, its
roolrf, of which we gathered ypevimens.
consist of a succession of nodosities,
sometimes of tho size of a large ear of
corn. The blacks e.it them after they
.have drunk the water frcm them. In
taste they resemble our radish. Doubt
less, from this description, a botanist
would recognize the tree, but the use
that the natives make of it is perhaps
yet. unknown."
Tuberculous.
mm lUil 1. C. A. In 1M; we were
called to fight the cholera pestilence.
The whole community arose and aided
the Hawaiian Hoard of Health in sup
pressing it. Republicans and Royalists
worked together with good will, with
tlie exception of a few ignorant and
incorrigible ieople who would not lis
ten to or obey t3i teachings of true
scientific principles. Result: The pes
tilence was confined to Honolulu and
soon stamped out. '
. Would it not be well when a worse
disease is threatening our fa.r city, to
work together for the abatement of
tuberculosis and its kindred diseases;
for us all, rich and poor, to work har
moniously for the cure of its lniatory
symptoms?

Honokaa.f Haw-all, Feb. l. 1MU.
EliiTOR P. C. A. In your paper I
noticel an interesting article headed
"A New Market." It was in fact a
most interesting ar;c!e whereas it was
bringing forth the idea of selling horse
fbsa in Hawaii, the consumers of which
to be. thietly Tortugiie'e. It may no
doubt !e a healthy and appetizing meat
but i beg to say that Mr. Kpperly
would make a far better trade by sell
ing tho live horses to Portuguese than
horse lltsh and taking the chance of
being treated like the first person who
rode a bicycle in China.

The electrical journals r fuse to take
seriotisiy Mr. Tesla's plan for the i-!ee-trical
transmission of power through

ly th version of it that vas quoted
by us from the Klectrical lteviww. and
which was copied extensively with
sensational variations. In iho daily pa
pers. The Klectrical World gives its
editorial opinion that Teslas patents
have been taken "undoubtedly more
seriously than the inventor himself in

quotation just referred t, proceeds to
poke fun at it.
