PROSPECTS OF TOURISTS.

The Canadian Pacific Railway
Co, are issuing 1st class tickets from
any point in Canada to San Fran
cisco, CAL, and return, good for
seven months, with stop off privi-
lege, for $50. The route is by rail
to British Columbia, and steamer to
San Francisco.
The President of the road is now
in England making arrangements
for their line of steamers to ply be-
tween British Columbia and Japan
and China. And when they secure
the subsidy promised by the British
Government, they intend to put on
line between British Columbia and
the Colonies, and promise excursion
tickets from Canada to Honolulu
and return for about $3.50.

A FISH STORY.

A conscientious gentleman told
several of his friends on the Espla-
made, this noon, of a splendid fish
venture. He said that the waters
about Fanning's Island TEEN with
fish, which are easily caught. He
further said that kind of large
black fish, which abound near the
island, are caught by the hundreds
and in a very remarkable way.
One of the fish being hooked, it
is drawn rapidly ashore, followed
by school of the same class. They
land with such force that they throw
themselves high on the beach, and
are then picked up. The people on
the Island, continued the gentleman,
do not cure the fish for market, and
if some enterprising company would
secure the right Of fishing there,
they could make a fortune.

HONOLULU FIRE DEPARTMENT.
MEETING OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

The Board of Representatives met
last night, at the Bell Tower, the
Chief Engineer, Mr.. G. b. Wilson,
presiding. The meeting was large
one.
After calling the roll and reading
the minutes of the previous meeting,
two bills-one from Wong Kim for
S27 and the other from j, II. Bruins
for $16-were approved and ordered
paid.
The final report of the Relief
Committee in connection with the
great fire of last April was read,
adopted, and the committee dis
charged with thanks. The report
specified receipts, aggregating
81, 400, and the disbursements $685.,
leaving a balance in hand of $50,
disposed of as follows $3.50 to the
sick fund and $3.50 placed in 'the
Postal Savings Bank for the benefit
of China Engine Co. No. 3.
The Jubilee Committee were not
ready with their report, and asked
for an extension of time, which was
granted.
The disposal of the $500 dona-
ton from the Inter-lsland Steam
Navigation Company came up for
consideration. The recommendation
of the Chief Engineer, made at the
last meeling-that 500 each be
given to Engine Companies Nos. l,
2, and A, $50 each to No. B, Pacific
Hose, and Hook and Ladder Com
panies, and $50 for incidentals-was
placed before the meeting as a
regular motion, it having been
moved and seconded.
To this Mr.. nj. d. Monsarrat
moved an amendment, which MIR. b.
Ordenstein seconded, as follows:-
Whereas, A proposition was made
at the last meeting of the Board to
apply to the use of several fire COM
panies, the sum of $500 donated by
the Inter-Island Steam Navigation
Company, and whereas, such action
if adopted would be detrimental to
the good name of this Department,
in that il is illegal and contrary to
| Art. 10 of the Constitution; there
fore be it resolved, that in order to
relieve Engine Companies No. | and
No. No. 4, from the expenditures
made by them in anticipation OF
their receiving 500 each for their
services rendered in pumping water
out of the w. G. Hall, the sum OF
5000 be ordered paid to said COM
panies, share and share alike, out OF
! the income derived from the invested
fund of the Department, and be II
further resolved, that the above
donation of $500 be paid into the
Sick Fund of the Department.
A lively but good-natured discus
sion followed, after which division
was called, resulting in the rejection
of the amendment and the adoption
of the original motion.
A sum of $50 was voted to JOIN
Pease, a member of one of thu
companies, out of the sick fund.

ELECTRIC LIGHT FOR MARINE
PURPOSES,

EDITOR BULLETIN In your dis
cussion of this subject l think you
make too much of the alleged failure
of the arc-light at Dungeness, and
you are certainly quite astray as to
sea-going vessels not entering Sgd
ney harbor by night. / doubt if
night passes on which several YES
sells do not enter Sydney heads and
go right up to the wharves. The
lights are especially arranged as
guides as we'll rs beacons, the sail
ing directions are easy and the feat
of entering or leaving the harbor at
night in ordinary weather one Of the
simplest for either steamer or sail
ing vessel. AS to the Dungeness
light, it is the only case in which
electric lighting has been abandoned
after being definitely adopted for any
lighthouse on the British or French
coasts. Sir James N. Douglas in an
address delivered in August last
before the British Association says
of it: "rhe early experience with
the electric light at Dungeness was
far from encouraging. Frequent
extinctons of the light occurred
from various causes connected with
the machinery and apparatus and
the oil light had at such times to be
substituted. AS no advantage can
counterbalance the want of certainty
for the guidance of the mariner, no
further step in the development of
electric light was taken by the Tri-
nifty House until the latter part of
1866 when favorable reports were
received from theI French lighthouse
authorities. From this it is clear
that the complaints of mariners (to
which he also alludes) ''of the daz-
zling effect on the eyes when navi-
eating as they are there frequently
required to do close IN Shore" were
not the sole reasons for the return
to the use of oil lights at Dunge-
ness; and as no wise navigator de-
sires and none can ever be required"
to keep ''close in shore" near Bar
ber's Point, think your argument
against the use of electric light
there is not quite sound. There
may however be other good reasons
against it.
A committee of the corporation
which in England has charge of the
Lighthouses, aided by members of
the Scotch and Irish Lighthouse
Boards and several scientific men of
other nationalities has during the
past two years been investigating
the value of the different systems of
illumination 'sboth as regards
efficiency and economy" and has
quite recently made report. After
an elaborate series of observations
and experiments the conclusions
these gentlemen have arrived at are
thus summed up by themselves I:
"For ordinary necessities of light
| house illumination, mineral oil is the
most suitable and economical ilumi-
nant, and that for salient headlands,
important landfalls, and places
where a very powerful light is re-
| quired, electricity offers the great
est advantages" Evidently if con-
suited they would not recommend
the use of electric lighting for Ho'
nolulu Harbor and considering the
facility with which our loca
steamers and coasters under sal
enter and leave the harbor at night
it is difficult to understand why
anyone thought it was required.
