The Lnvn Flow MovlriR Down
fe Steadily Upon illlo-
A corrcspoiulent of the llnn-nii.it
flozotto , writing from lliloon.Iuly 14 ,
gives tlio following particulars aboiil
the lava flow whicn threatens dostnic-
tion to Ililo : During the last week n
small (0113110 ( has shot out of the
"Wniakca flow seventy feet long and
BIX feet wide , but the flow is very
active on top nnd lias aproad very
much laterally on the Ililo side. The
WninkcA people have become < ) iiito
fwnguino as to their chances of escape.
Deyond the seventy feet reported the
Wiiakca llow lias inndo no nrogrcss ,
Init it may break out at any time with
increased vigor , however ; if it docs so ,
it will come upon a sort of marshy
basin which may take a considerable
time to Jill up ; According to our in
formant , months. It will io on pil
ing up and spreading out time and
again before it will bo sulllcicntly con-
ccntratdd to burst forth but unless
the central firb of Mokua\roo\vco \
weakens , it must inevitably fill tip ,
and , then it will break out at some
| Xint and como down with a rush to
the sea , A tremcnduous distance this
inoltpn slulT has como Taking into
consideration all the winding it cannot
bo less than forty-five to fifty miles.
People need not think that ravines or
gulches Imvo any effect upon it. The
only filing that in saving Ililo and the
vicinity at the present time is the
number of offshoots which the original
Jlow has to feed. The main and moat
dangerous flow is overlapping the old
How of 1850 ( nnd has not up to the
present writing , reached the end of. it.
It will iako months , at its present rate
of progress , to reach Hilp. but if it
docs it will almost infallibly go to the
north nnd overwhelm the town.
A MAflNlFICKNT
Another correspondent furnishes
this graphic description of the BCCIIO
on the mountain : Tlio Laumain
branch is coining to meet the ether ,
which is widening out and going towards -
wards Hilo , although it will not rcnch
there probably for two weeks , if so
HOOII. It has boon inoro nclivo ninco

The first time the Invn , came toward us

of the time , nnd that although our
camp was on rising ground. The
ladies of our party felt anxious , BI > wo

it would protect us from the fiery

aide the water in this gulch , seine dis
tance from what was then the active
troam , n distance nbovo the spot , but
to. our supriso the Inva followed along
in our trnck at once , and it was a
inagnificont spectacle to sec it pouring
over the upppr side and entrance.
There were three cascad a of from six
to ten foot high. Soon tlio wind fresh
ened and na the Inva crept nearer the
flinoko from tlio burning trees grow so
dense and BtilTocating that wo couldn't
cnduro it , BO wo moved ono of tents
and finally the othor. It seemed om
inous the wny the fire crept in after
us , for nil night the loud crash of fall
ing trees draw nearer nnd nearer. I
did noc sleep , for 1 could not , but
kept running down tlio track to BOO
tlio pouring iiro. It crawled steadily
up ono path , but downward , too , so
thnt it would nbato in this direction
in a few hours. It was like n hissing ,
roaring monster. Wo had moved
down nbout n milo , nnd it hnd follow

from.tlio frequent rains. . It burns no

In tlio Far Wont :
On the Pacific coast YOU can often
hear stoircs of
"OLD JACK MAUTIN , "
an eccentric character who crossed the
plains with the Hood of emigration in
50. II o had boon an exhorter in the
States , but the gold fever 'tore him
from his theological studios nnd
turned his feet toward the west.
With pick , shovel nnd pan ho wont to
-work in n gulch on the American
Tiyor , but fortune wns not lavish of
Jior smiles in his pnrticulnr case , and
ho found himself Hat on "bod-rock. "
with not a pound of Hour or bacon in
the cabin. In disgust ho abandoned
liia claim nnd drifted down to Sacra-
inciito , where for a few weeks ho
earned a precarious livelihood. The
mining fever again attacked him and
drove him to the mountains , Svhoro in
ft few we > ks ho was discovered wnndor-
ing about the camps , preaching to all
who would listen to his harangues ,
which were usually delivered from the
top of n stump or the head of n whis
Icuy barrel loaned him by somonccom
niodatini ; salooniat , At the close ol
each sermon ho would pass a tin box
prepared for the purpose , around in
the crowd. ,
At n latter day ho Bottled down as
the regular pastor of a charge in
Dutch Flat , wlioro n riido church had
boon erected by auch of the miners ns
hud not lost all of their religious in
clinations in the search for gold ,
A HATHIUI 0000 NTOIIY
is related of the manner in which the
old man woke up his congregation on
the matter of a little back salary duo
him. On a certain Sabbath morning
an unusually largo congregation as-
Bemblcd to hear him discourse. Be
fore the boginnint ; of the service Jack
doacpndod from the pulpit und was
B0jn to approach several brawny mem
bors of the congregation and whisp ior
into their ears. When ho returned to
Jus stand the muscled worshipers
quietly arose nnd stationed themselves
at the door , after which the preacher
calmly said :
' "My dear brethren , it is now about
a year since I first showed up in this
headed J-QU toward '
living pastures on the straight and
narrow gospel trail. I've tried to
ladle out the square truth as I caught
onto it in my skimishcs through the
Holy Writ. In my prayers 1 have
shown no paitiality , but have wrestled
just ns hard when asking Heaven to
open the eyes of 'Hummer Jim,1 and
turn him from his wickedness as 1
have when imploring that the truth
to made manifest to Col. Ward ,
the owner of the Monarch mine.
"Now I'm goinj. ' to talk business to
you , after which 3 will drive ahead
with the regular son-ice. I want
money ! I am going to have money
too , before 1 sling a word this morn-
\ny. \ You are not doing the square
thing with me , nnd you know it.
When I agreed to look after your
spiritual welfare you promised mo a
clean two thousand a year , but during
the year past I have received less than
ono thousand. Now , I have stationed
a mob of business at the door , and
the first impenitent sinner that tries
( o make a sncnk on the open air will
bo tlio leading character in a lively
little incident that ho Will remember
as long as ho lives. A collection will
now bo taken up , nnd ns I call each
man's name I want him to draw his
Img and empty some dust into the box.
Tony Arnold , just you circulate the
> ox. Now , loc. ) npill the dust and
set the boys a good example. Tip 'or
ip don't bo afraid of dropping a
; rain ortwo too much. Contribute
your mite that your thiyn may bo Ion"
n the land that flows with milk ami
lonoy. Now , Aleck Jones , it's your
urn. Thanks , that was a decent
spill. Johnson , 1 saw the bulk of the
wealth on your side of the table in the
game at Kontuok's last night , and the
church wants its percentage. Good
enough that's a fair share. Judge
Mason , skin your weasel and pay teller
or don't ' travel. That's the ticket
lolhing mean about you , Judge.
tfow , Shorty , chip in and give tlio
glorious cause a boost may the Lord
jo as liberal in shaking blcssihgs
down on you. Your pull next , Ark-
ansnw ; ante and pass the buck1. Hold
on that don't go. You didn't drop
three grains into the box. Tip 'or lip
again , nnd may your blessings bo
choked on"as you ehoko cfl the stream
of dust. "
Thus ho wont over the whole con
gregation , not ono of whom had the
'cheek" to refuse a contribution.
When the dust was brought forward
ho preacher said :
"The cause of the Lord and Jack
Martin ' 11 not suffer now for several
months , and I shall continue , as hero-
oforo , to herd your souls on the best
lioological grass to bo found in the
l ranges. Tlio tux t chosen reads
is follows : 'Inasmuch as yo did it
into ono of the least of these , my
jrothron , yo did it unto mo. ' "
From this text ho preached such a
powerful financial sermon that several
; nmo forward after the service and
wanted to double their contributions.

Poultry
li is slransfo that poultry raising on
the farm does not command more
attention than it does hero in thc
west. The demand for spring chick
ens all over the west is not Imlf mip-
piled , and now in August the aizo is
trillingly small and the price is exor
bitantly largo , Now this demand can
bo supplied by farmers raising 500
instead of 100 chickens , while the
profit would bo greater than an equal
value of beef , pork or mutton raised
on the farm.
Temporary quarters for summer
may bo provided for sonerato hits of
oO chicks to roo.it together until sold
ofT , ns it is not best to crowd more
than 50 or 75 together.
The improved varieties make
poultry raising moro remunerative in
early maturity for the table or in eggi
tlio year lound. In brooding up use
only full blood roosters , provide
comfortable quarters for them in whi
ter , and when properly fixed with
moderate conveniences but little
labor is required to raise a few hun
dred chickens. On the farm they
have the run of the orchard , fields
and barn yard and they pay for their
raising in the insects they destroy.
Turkeys are great foragers on
insects , and now they hnvo grown HO
in si/.o ( IJronzo turkeys ) and are in
Hitch demand every farm can profitably
raise n flock.
There is now no such thing as glut
ting the market , as was formerly the
case if a big basket of cgB ! { and a few
dozen chickens were brought to town.
With our improved facilities for ship
ping poultry nnd cirgs to the best
markets of the largo cities a good
demand is constantly maintained.
Pneumatic GloolcK.
London Tltin , A\t ; . 1.
The system consists of central works ,
at which the air is compressed by
means of steam engine * working air
compressors , and stored in leservoirs
at pressure varying from fifteen to
forty-fivo pounds her square inch.
The nir thus compressed and stored is
led to distributing receivers , passing
on its way to each through a pressure
regulator'by means of which n period
ical transfer or discharge of com
pressed air from the reservoir into
the receivers takes place , replacing
the air which is discharged every
minute from the receiver to the clocks.
By means of the regulator the com
pressed air in the receivers is main
tained nt n constant pressure , at which
prcBStiro it is delivered to a main or
normal clock , by which the system of
pneumatic clocks is actuated and con
trolled. This normal clock is an ini-
strumcnt of great precision , nnd is
fitted with an equilibrium or balanced
slide valve , which is successively
opened nnd shut by the action of the
clock , which is Bolf-winding. Tlio
compressed nir is admitted to this
clock in a continuous current ; but ,
by means of mechanism , it is trans
mitted through small branch tubes to
the receiving time-keepers in pulsa
tions. The hands of the main clock
travel in the same manner as those of
an ordinary clock. The intermittent
current of uir on reaching the receiv
ing clocks , which are those in the
streets or houses , nets upon their
mechanism , transmitting the time to
ono a-iid all at the same instant.
These clocks are made as simple as
possible , having an ordinary minute
wheel of sixty tooth controlled by a
catch fixed on a lover which receives
its motion from a leather hollows.
Another catch prevents the wheel
returning upon itself when once it
han been moved ono tooth. The
pressure convoyed through the system
of pipes every minute from the main
clock causes the bullows of each ro-
coivingclock to expand , thai advanc
ing the wheel ono toothk and the
minute hand through a one-minute
space , The main air pipes , which are
laid in the sewers , are only about an
inch in diameter , and these are tapped
at intervals to meet the requirements
of the customers. From the mains
the air is led through branch pipes
about a quarter of an inch in diameter
in the buildings , nnd distributed to
the clocks in the various apartments
by menus of pipes ono-eighth inch in
diameter Thu clocks are supplied by
the Company , o .small unmial charge
being made for their use. The air
can bo shut oil'at any time from a
house by moans ot a cock which is
placed on the service pibo at its junc
tion with the main pipe. Leakages
in the pipes have no influence upon
the general working of the system ,
which has been brought to great per
fection by the Compagnio Generate
dcs Horlogos Pnoumatiqucs. The
whole matter , in fact , appears to bo
BO simple , its action so certain and its
cost to the public so moderate that
other things being equal , wo lookfor
its adoption in our midst at no distant
