attains fruition. Activity in one
company will stimulate similar or
more activity In others; and, al
though the Pacific Cable Company
under notice do not propose an ex-
tension of their line to Australia.
a cable from America to Australia is
a certainty in the near future. In
this way it is possible that there
may be three cable lines from the
Coast to the Hawaiian Islands, and
the laying of these will be greatly
accelerated by activity on the part
of the Pacific Gable Company now
incorporated. That there will even
tually be cable lines between San
Francisco and Australia, and also
between Vancouver and Australia,
goes without saying; but it is not
by any means certain that the latter
will touch at the Hawaiian Islands,
and, if not, the one cable may do
duty for the first division of the San
Francisco line if there should be an
amalgamation of companies which is
at present highly probable.
In the meanwhile, the public is
chiefly interested in the Hawaiian
''Pacifc Cable Company, whose
stock comprises 10000 shares at 500
per share, and having a resident
management at Honolulu composed
of President, President, Secre-
tary, Treasurer and Auditor. These
are part of the conditions of the
Hawaiian charter, which stands fo1
fifty years from its date. Modifica-
tons, however, Of the charter are
probable; especially if large pro
portion of the shares should be
owned in San Francisco and other
parts of the United States, as it is
certain that the focus of manage
ment will be where the largest
money interest of the enterprise
centers.
Wherever the head management
may finally be located, the honor O.
the enterprise will be due to thu
gentlemen who have now so nobly
subscribed to the cable scheme, ant
have put their energetic shoulder
to this wheel of progress at a tim'
when it was stuck in the mud O
inactivity and uncertainty. Th
: Hawaiian kingdom is to be congra
, tulated in having such spirited resi-
dents, and in the production of CAPT
talists that will aid material work
of progress in times of need.

City Refuse.

Mr.. EDITOR: San Francisco is
calling out loudly against the refuse
nuisance in that city. The substance
most noted in the San Francisco
newspapers are: horse manure, scraps
of paper, lime, plaster and similar
refuse. To the people of Honolulu
these small matters do not seem
worth growing about; but if the
germ theory of disease be correct,
the dumping grounds of rubbish,
especially in warm climates such as
ours, are hot-beds of the worst forms
of zymotic disease. No one can
breathe the air at the lower end of
AlaIea street with pleasure, and there
are other localities of the city that
might be pointed out which are
equally offensive.
The attention of the Board of
Health should be drawn to this mat
ter, as hitherto those dumping
grounds seem to have escaped notice.
Prevention is always better than
cure; and it is much better that
pestilence should be prevented, than
that it should first kill number of
victims and then be cured by medi
cal aid *

New Style of Horse Shoe.

Experts have been for many years
puzzling their brains in order to in
vent horseshoe capable of being
affixed to the hoof without nails.
For long time their efforts were
almost in vain, but year or so ago
few enthusiastic gentlemen took
up the question, and as the result of
their joint labors they have pro-
duced a shoe which appears to be a
complete success. The shoe is at
tached by single steel band which
passes round the hoof, we'll below
the coronet. This is kept in posi-
ton by means of a pillar affixed to
the front of the shoe, which cannot
by any possibility slip off, as the
band mentioned is firmly secured at
the sides by small iron studs. Many
advantages are claimed for the shoe.
For military purposes it is simply
invaluable. No forge is required
with which to put it on, and any
one with the slightest knowledge of
horses can readily fix it whilst cold.
It may be thought that the cost of
the new shoe is much higher than
that Of the old one, but this is not
the case, the price if anything being
lower, whilst it is said the shoe will
last week or so longer

BRITAlN'S LATEST ANNEXATION.

The Suwarrow Islands, recently
annexed to the British empire, are
situated about 500 miles east Of
Samoa; and it is claimed that this
group is outside of the hurricane
range, but of this we have some
doubts. --latest accounts are to the
effect that the British government
intends to establish a naval and coal
ing station at this new acquisition;
and, If so, there will not be much
need for British war vessels to be
stationed at Apia or other Samoan
ports. Descriptive reports represent
the principal island of the Suwarrow
group as a coral atoll-a reef sur
rounding a large and deep saltwater
lagoon, with a good entrance or out
let to the ocean. Upon the shore OF
this lagoon the naval station would
be placed, and there is said to be
uOunOoHb LOOu1 IOI Gu0 dCCOuLuOOd-
ton OF fleet in from three to thirty
fathoms of water. A portion of the
ring above mentioned is only low
coral reef, and if the immunity from
hurricanes should not be found as
stated, the larger space inside the
reef would not prove much safer
than the harbor of Apia, unless
greater safety could be found il
some corner of the lagoon further
remote from the ocean and more
protected from the swells rolling in
ward. The resources of the group
in commercial sense, are next t.
nothing; but the position is in
commanding portion of the Soutl
Pacific, and would be in the track o
shipping sailing between Panama
or South America, and the Australian
colonies. AS naval station Suwa1
row would be of the Ascension O
Alden type, naval and coalin
station; but nothing more. AS such
however, the group is located in
, strategic position.

course in the public English schools
of the Hawaiian Kingdom, was pre-
pared for the Teachers Convention,
held in Honolulu last April, by Mr..
J.A.Moore, Principal of the Lahaina-

published in pamphlet fifty
one pages of letter press-and is
being circulated by the Board of
Education. This is a work of great
value to all teachers, every one of
whom should possess a copy of it,
and it will also be of assistance to
parents. It treats of the primary
studies In clear and full manner,
and points out the proper methods
of imparting instruction in these
branches. The pamphlets can be
obtained at the Department of Edu
cation. Honolulu, and from school

THE OCEAN CABLE ENTERPRISE.

It seems now that the Hawaiian
Islands will be connected with North
America by cable within short
period of time. When the chief
capitalists of the kingdom enter into
copartnership for a purpose of this
kind, it means business, and no un-
necessary delay need be expected.
On the 18th June, ultimo, Messrs.
w. G.. Irwin, Henry F. Glade, Peter
G. Jones, Hermann A. Widemann
and James Campbell, applied to the
Privy Council of this kingdom for a
charter of incorporation in the form
alton Of the Pacific Cable Company,
with capital of one million dollars,
but with power to increase to a limit
of ten millions. Seven hundred
and fifty thousand dollars had been
subscribed at the time of the appli-
cation, representing three-fourths of
the capital; and all this had been
done with quietness that betokened
determination to push the enter
prise to completion.
Z The body corporate of the Pacific
Cable Company, so far as we know,
comprises only residents of the Ha-
waiian Islands, or those who are very
closely connected with the interests
and commerce of this kingdom; and
when an enterprise is guided and
financially supported by the most
energetic and long-slghted Hawai-
ian capitalists, there can be "no such
word as fail"
Prominently on the list of share
holders mentioned in the Charter,
are: Messrs. W. G. Irwin, FL. P.
Baldwin, Fl. A. Widemann, Paul
Isenberg, g. n. Wilcox, John T.
Waterhouse, James Campbell, P. G.
Jones, S. n. Castle, W, o. Smith, III.
F. Glade, Mark P. Robinson, Cecil
Brown, Thos. FL. Hebron, S. M.
Damon, "and their associates" With
such an array of Hawaiian represents
alton, cable is certainty; and the
chief interest of the public now CEN
tiers in the period of completion.
Large bodies, proverbially, more
slowly and hasty jumps need not be
but it is probably safe to
say that within a year cable com
munication with the Pacific coast of
America may be established, The
Pacific Cable Company, having
power to add to their number and to
increase the capital to ten million
dollars, will naturally float portion
Of the stock in the United States and |
possibly in Europe also. This pre-
urinary part of the business requires
time; but when operations begin,
,he manufacturing and laying of the
cable need not occupy many months.
These works are done very quickly
when stitches" do not occur; and,
the business energy of the
who guide the enterprise.
We have stated the possibility of hav-
ng the cable established within a
ear from this date.
The Pacific Cable Company's
harter empowers the corporation to
xtend the cable to Japan, but that
'ortlon of the work is too much in
be future for us to consider it at
his time. Other trans-Pacifc cable
rejects are in the initiation stage,
nd the action of other cable syndi-
ates may modify the ultimate inten-
ons of the Pacific Cable Company
efore the latter part of its scheme
