From ne AHshtNs american.
Last year a party Of twenty-five
Dunkaids was en- route 10 the general
conference via 81. Louis. No agent ac
companied them, and a telegram was
sent 10 Union Depot Passenger Agent
Bonner 10 meet twenty Dunkards
The religious education Of the tele
graph operator who received the mes
sage had been neglected. He had
never heard OF the DunkaTds, and, sup
posing a mistake had been made, he just
inserted the letter n, aud when Bonner
received the message II read = Meet
No 4 Twenty drunkards aboard.
Look after them
Bonner was somewhat taken aback.
He did not know but that an inebriate
asylum had broken loose, but anyway
prompt action was necessary. The
twenty dTunkards must be desperate
men or the dispatch would not have
been sent, and murder might have been
committed on the road.
Bonner posted of 10 Police Head

vailed among the numerous depot

repCy that a desperate band OF train
robbers were on the incoming train.
In due time the train arrived but no
party Of registering dTunkards alighted
The party on the train was composed Of
several pious looking gentlemen, with
broad brimmed hats, who stood around
as though expecting some one.

A TALL CHIMNEY



nom Ns FFgirefifH9 and WjriU1 J0vrH1i.
The following src particulars of a
wroughtiron factory chimney of asome-
what novel description which has been
built at CreusOt The total height Is
219 feet, the diameter % feet at the base
and z feet 6 inches al the top, the total
weight being so tons, exclusive of ma
soury foundations. The latter are car
ricd 3 feet inches above the ground
and weigh about 800 tons. The shaft
was built in successive rings each 4 feet
inch high, the thickness varying from
9.16 inch at the base 10 I inch at the top.
The nine lower rings were formed Of
eight plates each, the upper ones OF four
plates each The base was enCirClei by
a massive angle iron b)lled TO the
foundation The eight lower rings were
lined with FIRE brick
The erection Of the chimney occupied
seventy days including taking down
The flying scahold The latter was Of a
somewhat novel character. ItcOnsisted
Of a central wrought iron tube seven
inches in diameter, and was provided at
The bottom with four wooden cross bars
or arms so clamped that their length
could be adjusted 20 suit the varying
diameter Of the chimney, carrying the
internal platform. These arms rested
on angle brackets rcfited to the interior
of the plates The upper part Of the
central tube carried four cross arms, or
jibs, each consisting of pair Of tim
bers stifTened by raking struts from the
central tube. From their outer ends
was slung the exterior circular platform,
The latter consisted Of a pair Of
angle.iron rings to the outer edge Of
which was rivetCd a plate iron fence,
while the inner was provided with
T iron sianchions. Radial bearing
timbers resting on these rings aud
adjustable endwise to suit the varying
diameter Of the chimney carried the
platform, an annular space being left
Just sufficient for hoisting the plates.
The latter operation was effected by a
rope passing over an adjustable pulley
fixed to each rib in turn, and carried
down a central tube to a snatch block
fixed at the bottom Of the chimney.
AS each successive ring was riveted up
two pairs Of bars were laid across, by
which the scafTold was slung by four
iackscrews furnished with rachel col
lars, and thus raised high enough to
take bearing on the next set of angle
brackets.
The complete scaffold weighed about
four tons, and the heaviest plate about
eight hundred weight The total cost
Of the chimney without foundation
was about 5000.

DEATH OF HON. W. L. GREEN.

1t is with deep regret we announce
the death OF the Hon. W. l.. Green
which took place Sunday at 1:30 P.
u. In his residence on King street.
He had long been ailing and was
obliged two years ago to resign the
post he then held In the Cabinet as
Minister of Finance.
William Lowthian Green was born
in 1918 in London, and came to this
country from South America In 1880
and was soon actively engaged IN
mercantile pursuits and became a
partner III the firm Of Janion, Green
IL Co. To the foresight and energy
of Mr.. Green the establishment of
the Honolulu Iron Works is largely
owing. Twice during temporary
vacancies in the post of British Com
missioner Mr.. Green acted in that
capacity, and three times has occu-
| pied seat in the Cabinet, the last
time being on the occasion of the
overthrow of the Gibson regime in
1887 when the King entrusted to MIR.
Green the formation of new Min
istry.
Throughout busy life Mr.. Green
always found time for the cultiva
ton of his favorite science, geology
and his "Vestiges of a Molten
Globe" show how deeply he had
studied the laws which govern the
cooling of masses of heated inor
ganic matter. AS recently as July
last he published Notice of Prof
Jas. ID. Dana's characteristics O
Volcanoes" MIR. Green leaves 1
widow, a daughter of the late Robt
McKibbin, NJ. d., and one daughter
Mrs. j. n. S. Williams of this city.
Mr.. Green was Grand Officer o
the Royal Order of Kalakaua an'
Knight Commander of the Crown o

CABLE PROSPECTS.

Being just now desIrous of re-
awakening an interest in cable
matters, we were fortunate enough
to mention the subject in converse
ton with Hon. Judge Hartwell
who, in compliance with a request
to that effect, was kind enough to
supply us with the following
(memorandum).
While staying in Washington
last summer watching the action
of Congress concerning the sugar
tariff, / availed myself of the oppor-
tunity to talk with United States
officials and with members of Con-
gress about cable from San Fran
cisco to Honolulu.
' / also obtained in considerable
detail and from trustworthy sources
information concerning the methods
adopted elsewhere for raising funds
for marine cables, under the super
vision of, and aided by subsidies or
grants from the various govern
ments in Europe, in whose interest
many such cables have been laid,
and are now in operation.
1.-The prospect for our cable
seems to me to be fair, although /
doubt whether it is so likely to be
made by a British company from
Vancouver's Island to Honolulu as
many think it is.
What England and Germany
particularly needs cable communi-
cation from Auckland with Samoa
and the FijiS, but with an Amer
lean cable from San Francisco to
Honolulu they might be quite
ready to join each other in laying
cable from Australasia to Homo.
lulu, making friendly connection
with the American cable. For
many reasons l believe such a
result to be more likely than any
other and to be the course which
would secure the largest CONNER
cial and political advantages to
Hawaii
1T seems to be conceded that as
an Investment the cable cannot
pay, and that it is only from a
national or international point OF
view that any foreign government
can be expected to sustain it.
