Unexplored Earth Areas and Russian Prison System
The article notes 20 million square miles of Earth's surface remain unexplored and cites 870 prisons in Asiatic and European Russia with 100 913 inmates. It discusses Laur's view on petroleum origins via subterranean carbide decomposition, suggesting a continuous process and implications for natural gas and liquid products. The nitrogen in petroleum is proposed to be from nitrides rather than animal origins.

Prosperous Hawaii under American rule praised by press
The Hawaiian Gazette calls the past year the islands' most prosperous, noting a $1.8 million sugar company, $450,000 in public and private buildings, and real estate gains. Exports rose from $7.6 million to $14.45 million for year ending Sept 30, 1896, four-fifths to the United States, suggesting Hawaii could thrive annexed or not. The Boston Journal adds that Congress might raise the flag out of admiration for local grit and tenacity.
