Contradiction. In Character.


Speaking of dogs" said yarn spinning
boat club man, chuckling softly to himself
over some mirth provoking memory, there
was a queer thing happened one day last
week One of the young fellows belonging to
the boat club has a pretty hot temper, al
though he's mighty good hearted boy.
Well, the pup that belongs to the fellow that
tends to the club house chewed up a 81 hat
on young Blank and it made him pretty hot
He swore he'd kill that blasted pup, and
he chased him all over the pier with that in
tention, but the pup was too lively for HIM
and led him a regular chase. Finally the boy
got the dog cornered out at the pier head, and
the pup, as last resort, jumped overheard.
over goes Blank after him and swims him
down, for the dog was no swimmer. Well,
he just pounded the face OFF that pup and
soused him under so much that two or three
women standing round said he was a perfect
brute
The next day young Blank came down
again. There was an awful sea on; l never
saw worse. The water was breaking clear
over the pier and sending the suds clear over
the clubhouse roof Blank had to make
run for it to get down the pier as far as the
club house. The dog saw him coming, and
thinking, | suppose, that he was going to
soak 1t TO him again, he made a sneak down
the pier and pumped OFF the end, right in
among those broken rocks and jagged piles.
IL was sure death for the dog, with such a
sea running Blank stood and figured min
ute. He Is pretty good boatman and first
rate swimmer, but he knew a man with a
boat hadn't one chance in a thousand of get
ting out to that pup and getting in again
safe.
He turned round and went into the club
house, chucked off his coat and shoes, got
down boat, and somehow-the Lord knows
how, don't-got her over the lee side of the
pier and tumbled into her. He got the dog
all right, but it was queer thing for him to
do, now, wasn't itf To risk his life for
worthless cur that he'd been bent on drown
ing the day beforeI"
thought 1t wasn't 50 queer, after all, and
would like to know that young fellow; he.

Speaking of the artesian belt, is
there means Of judging where arte.
sian wells are likely to be success
fui?"
at can be judged partly by the
formation OF the country, but here
you can go by the wells that have
been dug. Numbers of wells near
together without. affecting each
others supply indicate great sub
terranian reservoirs. We measured
four wells on Judge McCully's place
at Punahou and found that their dis
charge per day was equal to half
the water supply of San Francisco.
Eight similar wells would supply
that city with the water it now re-
Quires.'
WAS your trip to Maui to survey
arid lands there for irrigationY"
mo. We merely inspected the
Spreckelsville plantation, which gave
us good standard Of measurement
for the water requirements of sugar
cultivation, so that our report will
be based not on theory but on act
ual practice. There are millions OF
dollars running into the sea here,
We found a good deal of water not
utilized even at Sprcckelsville where
an immense amount has been ex-
pended in irrigation works"
When the reporter was taking
leave of Mr.. Allardt, his colleague
not having been in the office during
the interview, the former remarked
''Iou may say that Mr.. Schuyler
and myself have worked in harmony
agreeing in everything, which is not
always the case with engineers en-
gagged in the same work, and thi:
has made our operations very plea
SAINT"
Mr.. Dillingham;, who was seer
again, confirmed the foregoing oh
servation, adding that there was re
markable closeness between the fig
ures Obtained by the two engineer
in their separate calculations.
The Sweet Water Dam at San Di
ego, referred to above, was siXteel
months in construction and cos
: $234,074 Ii. 1t was taken in charg
by Mr.. Schuyler after work had be
gun on another's plan that was see
: in time to be inadequate. The est
mated duty of the works is suppl
/ of water, allotted At 100000 90
gallons, to National City, and tn
, irrigation of 10000 acres of LAND
t The value of the irrigation suppl
of the reservoir is $4,000, 600
"Thr construction of the works,

Another step has been taken in
the Pacific cable enterprise by the
organization of local company
under the charter recently granted.
1t is learned that the company
means what il elsewhere reported,in
seeking cash estimate of cost of
the cable. There is no intention of
Offering any stock as part of the
price. This plucky purpose on the
part of local capitalists augurs that
they mean business, and nothing
can be imagined which would give
Hawaii better standing abroad
than that, with her domestic enter
prise, she should secure this great
boon so long looked fer in vain al
the handso of great friendly nations
and their capitalists.
