BRITISH COMMERCE..
Proposed Line of Steamers from vancou.
yer to Hongkong.

proposed Line OF Steamers from Vancou-
yer to Hongkong.
OTTAWA (Canada), August Doth. - The
action of the British House OF Commons
in granting q subsidy of sixty thousand
pounds for the establishment of a mail
service between Vancouver and Hongkope
is creating stir in political circles here.
Hon. John Haggard. Postmaster General.
in speaking of it said: "The Canadian
Government has received adyices that the
information in the dispatch is correct, and
that the action of the Imperial Govern
ment was the direct outcome of Canada's
annex, evinced in the action of the Cana.
dian Commons at its last session, in agree.
ing to pay her share of the subsidy of if
teen thousand pounds"
The establishment of line of steamers
on this route is now almost an accom-
plished fact, and there is little doubt that
1t will reyolutionize the British trade from
India.
A minute of the bill received by the
Government here from the Imperial autho.
lilies states that though the scheme is not
justitiable upon postal reasons alone. il Of
fers alternative services which saves sew
eral days as compared with the Suez route,
and it is therefore of considerable yalue
from postal point OF view. 1t has land
transit lying wholly within the British
territory, and as military route it is held
by the military aud naval authorities to be
OF the highest importance. The cffer of a
company to construc: mail steamers which
will be employed by the Admiralty as
armed cruisers in case of need also accords
with the policy already adopted in the case
OF certain other large steamship COM
panies.
The minute points out that some diff
Guilty is felt with regard TO the Atlantic
portion of the line. the control of which is
entirely in the hands of the Dominion
Government
Charters were, however, given by that
Government that are necessary for the ac-
ceieratlon of the service, should ii be se-
cured, and after much negotiation the
terms OF the contract were agreed upon for
service between Halifax, Quebec and Hong
Kong. and it will be one continuous and
complete service. At intervals of four
weeks vessels will call at Yokohama and
Shanghai, and the contract will rnn for ten
years.
The admiralty clause provides for the
conveyance of troops and supplies on tbe
Canadian Pacific Railway. Ii will present
an alternative route for Australian and
New Zealand mails at present. These
mails. when sent to America, travel via
New York and San Francisco, and spe.
cialiy high rate is paid for the United
states land transit. Under the proposed
contract IL will be possible to send them
via Quebec or Halifax and Vancouver on
payment OF the ordinary postal union rates
OF transit to the Canadian Postoffice. and
possibly the mail route via the Pacific 10
Australia will be diverted from San Fran.
citco to Vancouver.

FRESNO has two swimming baths, San
Jose and Santa Clara each have one, San
Francisco has many. Sacramento, with
unlimited water supply at her threshold,
has not one. There is great need here for
such an institution. If properly con-
structed and conducted, it would certainly
"pay" as an investment, and that such
scheme has not been entered upon is
amazing. The bath should be inland, and
not in the river, as once proposed. 1t
should be large enough to accommodate
contestants in racis and be capable of
division into two parts for the accommoda-
ton of women and children, or of being
thrown into one apartment as desired for
public entertainments. 1t should not be
less than eighty by one hundred and sixty
feet in area, and should be under shelter,
and be capable of being heated in air and
water. 1t should be tank of cement, or
similar material, built upon the surface of
the ground, that it may be easily and con-
stantly drained, for the chief essential of
popular swimming bath is fresh water
daily, and in the hight of the season twice
day, possibly. The water can be pumped
in from the river or raised from sunken or
artesian wells. The discharge would be
valuable in keeping at least one line of
sewer thoroughly flushed. 1t is estimated
that the land necessary, the tank and
building construction, and the machinery
plant, would call for about thirteen thou
sand dollars to be invested; that the opera
ton Of the bath would average cost of
four thousand dollars year. To return
this outlay and ten per cent. interest upon
the capital invested, would call for a
patronage of but about fifty nine persons
| day, an average that would certainly be
exceeded, while we take no account what
ever of income from sale of privileges and
spectators admission. 1t Is demonstrate
that the investment can be made to pay
very handsomely, if it is handled by bust
ness men. Certainly a well-managed
swimming bath in this city would be a
great public blessing, and is really pub
lie necessity. There is need that all our
children and our women should be taught
to swim; it is not only an accomplishment
but necessary part of physical education
Under guidance it is a healthful and de-
veloping amusement. Swimming baths
wherever established have proved popular
sanitary aids and general public benefits.
That there is not one such institution in
Sacramento, with its $4,000 population, is
not creditable to us.

A CASE IN POINT.

In our forefathers' days, pimples were at
tributed to diseased blood But modern
medicine has demonstrated that rich food
does not create eruptions by fouling the
blood, but retards digestion, which makes
the stomach torpid. and the circulation
sluggish, and in turn causes nm enfeebled
action OF the pores which congest or become
pimply. The modern theory therefore is not
to treat the blood, but the stomach and liver,
and 1t is under this new idea, that Joys yese-
table sarsapa-iIia was conceived. It is wip-
ing the old blood disease" idea out of ex-
istence case in point: II have had for
years spells OF indigestion and dyspepsia and

of the leading sarsaparillas. 1t caused pim-
pies to break out on my face, which /

The attempt to assassinate Dom Pedro
Emperor of Brazil, was the attempt of a
crack-brained youth, who represents no
substantial element of worth in Brazil,
Dom Pedro has made wise, humane and
progressive ruler, and that at this late day
he should be assaulted is shameful. He
has accomplished for Brazil all that has
been possible in the last half century, and
the nation is to-day one of the most flour
ishing and satisfied states of the earth. No
monarch has succeeded in abolishing a
vast system of slavery with so little fric-
ton as has the Emperor of Brazil. The
attempt to raise the cry of Long live the
Republic +" in the echoes of the sound of
the pistol that was aimed at his heart,
was not the sincere effort of one who has a
true conception of republic.

OUR SAN FRANCISCO LETTER.

Since | wrote you last there has
been but little of interest TO the Ha-
waiians to read. Amongst the ar
rivals here can be enumerated Mr..
George Dole, late of Kauai, who re-
ports that hc has come up here to
''lool about a little. This means,
probably, that he intends to invest
in some land in California.
Amongs those who remain here is
Bruce Cartwright who is upon
the whole in better health than when
l last wrote. He is now at Pasa
Roba Springs for while.
A new arrival is Mr.. Harry Luce,
who landed here yesterday, and is
troubled with temporary partial
blindness. The diagnosis of more
than one eminent practician here,
sustains the hope that he will in
time fully recover his normal sight.
Many of our Island people have
been in the habit of visiting the
Aetna Springs, where they have
found health and strength. This
week hope to have the pleasure of
visiting that famous health resort
with Mr.. Luce, and to witness his
gradual restoration to health,
strength, and good eyc-sight, while
l, well, l will look on and fancy
myself better.
Mr.. Magnin, at one time the pro-
prietor of popular" store in Ho-
