Scientists say that the Lick telescope
will bring the noon SO near the earth
that an object 800 feet square can be so
plainly seen that its nature will be de-
terinined. So that If there are cities or
ships, or other things that belong to
human beings npon our neighboring
planet they will be discovered, and the
fact established that the moon is not a
dead, but a living world. If no such
discoveries are made nothing will be
proved as to this question. But oh! what
a luxury it must be to sweep Tie uni
verse of worlds through this telescope.

REFORMS AT LAHAINALUNA.
The Students of that Time-honOred
Institution Mending Their Ways.

The Board Of Education has had
highly satisfactory reports from the
Lahainaluna Seminary, under the
principalship of Mr.. John A. Moore,
formerly of Wailuku and Lihue Gov
ernment English Schools. There are
at Lahainalma thirty-five boys and
accessions are made from time to time
Deputy Sheriff Evans, who has al
ways taken a lively interest in educa-
tional matters, writes that great i'm
provement is manifest not only in the
general condition of affairs about the
Seminary, but also in the department
of the students outside Of school hours
The billiard rooms of Lahaina miss
the nightly attendance of Lahainalma
boys, and instead of resorting to these
and other places Of less reputable char
acter, the lads are treated to evening
exercises in the institution, to facili-
tate which an order has reached the
Education Office for a new set of
lamps.
As wholesome discipline becomes
re-established, the friends of Lahaina-
luna will be glad to learn that their
interest in the school need suffer no
abatement by reason of the escapades
of the youth reported few months
ago.

Fireproof Storage Building Projected
Work in the Shops Repairs on
Machinery of q. s. S. Marion.

On Wednesday gang of laborers
was engaged in demOlishing the brick
walls remaining from the old Police
Station, destroyed in the great fire of
April is, 1886, pre- ,)aratory TO the cree
ton of a large storage building for the
Honolulu Iron Works. The company
has procured a long lease of the site
for that purpose from the owner, Mr..
+. NJ. Hatch, barrister.
The projected structure viii be one
of the most substantial of the many
fine blocks that speedily sprang up in
the burnt district. 1t will be a fire
proof brick building, two stories in
height, and covering an area of
sixty feet fronting on King street
and sixty feet deep. There will
be two entrances in the front, each to
8 store equal 10 two of those in YIN
Quon's building adjoining. Mr.. Geo.
Lucas, proprietor Of the Honolulu
Planning Mills, has the contract for the
whole outside work of the building,
to be completed by the first of June
The cost OF the building when finished
viii be in the neighborhood of $4,000.
This building has been projected eX-
pressly for the purpose of storing pat
terms, models, etc. There is an accu-
mutation of costly models at the works
dating back for twenty-five years. If
these should unfortunately get
burnt the planters OF the Islands
would have to pay for them. A rule
of the establishment is that nobody
has to pay for pattern that is already
there Only the person ordering work
requiring a new model or pattern has
Il.
the provision of firepToof storage about
being made is really in the interest of
the planters, so that it speaks well for
the public-spirited enterprise of the
corporation owning the Iron Works.
There will be a subdivision of the
store rooms by alleyways, and the diff
ferent sections thus formed will be
catalOgued Systematically. BY this
means any particular model or pattern
can be reached as required without
any trouble of searching.
At present the Works are running
overtime, although, as Superintendent
Young says, this is the period of dol
drums Besides not being the busiest
season of the year according to the
rule, there are other elements at pres
ent causing dullness. Pending the re-
suit ot the dlHuslon process about be-
ing adopted at Kealia, Kauai, the
planters are not disposed to make large
acquisitions or alterations of machin-
cry. Mr.. Young has received many
testimonials from plantations that
have tried his Automatic Cleaner
strongly attesting the value of that
invention as a saver and imprOver of
sugar. Mr.. Watson, of Mirrlees, Wat
son & CO., of Glasgow, G. B., will take
away from his present visit here all
the information possible regarding
this device, for which his firm has
taken out letters patent in the United
Kingdom.
The Iron Works have a very impor-
tant undertaking now on hand, in the
making of extensive repairs to the ma
chinery of the United States s. Marion.

SAN Francisco, November Sat the
rooms Of the Democratic and Republican
State Central committees tonight, state
ments are made that all the arrange
ments possible have been made for the
election tomorrow, and nothing can be
now done but to await the result. The
chairmen of both these committees were
asked by an Associated Press representa-
tive for their predictions of the result of
the vote in the State and in San Fran
cisco for President and Vice-Presi-
dent. General w. H. Dimond, Chair.
man of the Republican Committee,
and M. M. Estee, Chairman of the late
National Republican Convention, stated
that their minimum figures, not counting
Republicans by about 5000 plurality.
Estee lsaid in reply to an inquiry
that no p: edictions wonld be ventured as
regards San Francisco, as this city is apt
to be close, and either the Democrats or
the Republican party may carry it by
1,500 or 1000 plurality. Chairman
VIM. D. English, of the Democratic State
Central Committe, states that the
most careful minimum estimate of
the Committee is as follows:
Republicans from other parts of the
State are expected to come to San Fran
cisco with twenty-s hundred plurality
San Francisco is counted on for Demo
cratic plurality Of at least five thousand,
thus giving a Democratic plurality in the
State of 2,400 or $500.

State-DemocraticP Possibilities.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 5.-The
claims of the two State Committees as
to the result in this State are very far
apart, each claiming for its own Can
didate by a big plurality. Bo.h state
ments have been given out for several
days without change, and are said to be
based on a careful poll of the State. The
Republican figures on the general result
81 show plurality ofthirty-eight Of thousand
to be seen at Democratic headquarters
but the statement was out there several
days ago was that the Democrats would
have plurality Of $4,000 in the State,
and would gain six Congressman. Judge
Thurman was called on this afternoon by
an Associated Press correspondent. In
reply to question, he said he was nc
prophet in election matters; but he be
lieves with certainty and is hoping and
fully expecting the Democratic ticket to
come out ahead.
