The Bond Discussion.

A meeting was held at Kohler's hall
Saturday night and the bond question
was discussed, both pro and con-, at con-
siderable length. Jno. j. Carney of
Elma; Geo. Stinson and M. z. Goodell,
OF Montesano, were OH hand as bond adj
vocates, and represented the affirmative
side OF the question; Alex. Poison, of
fioquiam, and j. B. Mailing of this city
were among the speakers of the negative.
The frequent and prolonged applause be-
spoke an eloquent array OF orators, or an
exceptionally appreciative audience. tt e
question was taken under advisement by
the judges and the decision will be made
known by the result at the polls next
Saturday.

modify this tendency.

able little town-given back seat.

Punahou Bathing Pond.

President Hosmer of Oahu Col
lege, has made several improve
ments to the bathing pond on the
college premises. The pond is seven
feet deep and about thirty feet
square at the surface, with cemented
bottom and sides. Staunch bars
have been erected over the pond
from which are suspended ropes,
bars, trapeze, rings, etc. This is I'M
doubtedly the best equipped and
perhaps the finest bathing place In
Honolulu. Water is supplied from
the old Punahou spring, and it IS
always cool, just suited for this
climate. While persons living near
Punahou are always complaining OF
scarcity of water, especially in these
days OF drought, Punahou has al
ways an unlimited supply Of cool
spring water. Almost every one at
the college knows how to swim, from
boys land girls, too seven years old
to those of maturer years. Some of
the boys are practicing aquatic feats
which will no doubt surprise visitors
when they call on them.

A UsefuI Electric Plant.

The New York Engineering Rec
ord says that, according to one of
the foreign journals, a German cleo
trio company has constructed port
able light outfit for use at places
where a permanent plant would be
out of the question. The outfit con-
sists of heavy truck carrying an
upright boiler, engine and dynamo,
covered to protect them from the
weather. The ceiling of the cab is
arranged to hold 1000 candle power
arc lamps. A complete outfit of
wires, insulator, lamp carbons and
all necessary tools for erecting and
maintaining a short temporary line
are part of the equipment. Port
able outfits of this kind are by no
means uncommon IN the United
States, and are used by some of the
railroad companies.

WITHIN THE DREARY ARCTIC.
Peary's Expedition Enco inter
ing the Rieors of the North.
Starvation or Death by Freezing More
Than Probable.

New YORK, September Now
that the iceship Kite has returned
from the frozen North, after depos-
iting Lieutenant Robert E. Peary,
his wife and his five associates in
Mccormack bay, North Greenland,
people acquainted with Arctic
travel have received information
that gives them an opportunity
of weighing the Peary expedition
in the balance, and there is strong
feeling among them that there may
be sad addition to the already
too crowded volume of polar suffer-
ing, a chapter sadder than any yet
written, since it concerns the fate
of young and beautiful American
woman, who accompanied her hus-
band with no thought or knowledge
of what an Arctic winter means.
From the start the expedition, it
is alleged, was based on miscon-
ception and transformation. Some
scientists think that Greenland eX-
tends to about eighty-fve degrees
north. Others are convinced that
1t reaches $50 miles further, or to
the pole itself. Peary went north
to find out which party is right,
his own opinion being that about
So degrees north is its extreme
limit. At the present the Peary ex-
petition stands in this position:
They are encamped in a desolate
and almost inaccessible region, with
the task before them of making q
trip next spring four hundred miles
north into a region, also probably
inaccessible, and then coming back
and finding themselves no better
off than they were before. In other
words, they have calmly under
taken to do in q few short months
two tasks, either one OF which ord
mary people would consider i'm
possible.
If they take the northern trip
over the ice cape and cannot get
back starvation awaits them. If
they do get back and then fail at
making the trip south to civiliza-
ton, the same fate may be theirs.
The verdict of Arctic explorers
everywhere is that those regions
are not the place for white
woman, and on board the Kite
there was an outburst Of indigna-
ton when it was known that Mrs.
Peary had actually been induced
to remain in Mccormack bay.
None of the members of the Peary
expedition, with the exception of
the colored man Mat, who thought
Greenland q sort of Atlantic City,
knew that Mrs. Peary was to re-
main. Each member declared that
he would never have enlisted had
he known it.
Peary is also short Of coal, and
he will not be able to procure any
supplies from Danish officials be-
cause he omitted to obtain peTmls-
sion to land in Greenland.

BARK LANCEFIELD.
The Probable Cause of Her
Present Leakv Condition.

The Probable Cause of Her
Present Leaky Condition.
The owners of the cargo of the
bark Lancefeld will make a good
thing out of the misfortunes of that
vessel. She loaded in Tacoma with
wheat and left that port on the Goth
of June. When eighty days out
and already IA deg. south of the
line, she sprung a bad leak. She
was then $500 miles from Valpa-
raise and about 2,400 from Homo
lulu. Owing to the war she did not
try to go to Chile but made for
Honolulu, reaching this port in
twenty seven days under easy sail.
The leak was so bad that it was i'm
possible to carry much sail. All
hands were kept at the pumps day
and night. The seams had opened
all around the vessel for width of
about eight feet. The Lancefeld
was loaded with large cargo of
wheat, 456 long tons-of which
about $50 are now unloaded The
cargo was not damaged but the OBJ
iect of unloading is to tighten the
vessel, so as to permit repairs to be
made. Not much more will be taken
out.
The outside planking has been
stripped off and ship carpenters are
busily at work on the vessel, recaulk-
ing the seams. The vessel had been
overhauled last in Port Townsend,
but no difficulty of this kind was
suspected. The trouble probably
arose through defective work IN New
York, where the present sheathing
of the ship was put on. The mate
observed: "They forgot to put any
oakum in the seams"
The Lanceield was built IN New
Brunswick and is about ten years
old. The present repairs will occupy
several weeks and will cost in the
neighborhood of $1,000. As soon as
they are completed the vessel will
proceed with her cargo to Havre,
France.
Since the Lancefield left Tacoma
the price of wheat has risen greatly,
and as it will doubtless continue to
rise the owners of the cargo will net
a handsome profit.

OFFICIAL SALARIES.

A Washington correspondent of
the st. Louis Post-Dispatch writes
as follows: The recent reslgna-
ton of United States Judge with
the frank statement that the sal
airy of his position would not war
rant him in longer holding it, calls
some attention to the salaries paid
officials of the Government as COM
pared with those of other coun-
tries. Our Minister to France gets
S17 900. England pays her Min
lister to France $4,000 and gives
him a palace to live in. We pay
our Minister to England SIT, 500.
England pays her Minister to
Washington 100000 year, and
gives him a great mansion fully
equipped and furnished, and $4,000
year for entertainments. Eng
land even pays her Minister to
Persia $4,000 year and gives
him a palace. She even pays
her representative to Greece
more than we pay our highest Off
GERS. We pay our Chief Justice
S10,500 a year, and our Associate
Justices $4,000. Chief Justice
Coleridge gets $4,000. The
other eight judges of his Court
get a salary of 5000 year each.
Even the English Consul at New
York receives a salary of over S20,
900 year. General Sheridan gets
something like $4,000 a year;
General Wolseley gets about S40,-
600. The Clerk OF the House of
Representatives receives 81, GOO
year. The Clerk of the lower
House of Parliament in England
receives about $4,000 a year. The
Queen Of England, for herself alone,
receives every year from the En-
glish Government over $3,O09,O 600
for life. Our President receives
$50, 900 year for four years. The
Prince of Wales draws every year
5000, 600 from the English treasury.
The Princess of Wales, for pin
money, gets $4,000 year; Prin-
cess Louise Marchioness of Lorne)
gets $4,000 l. year, and Prince
Leopold about the same sum. Then
comes the Duchess of Cambridge,
$4,000; the Princess of Teck, $780,
600; the Duke of Cambridge, $780,
600, and any number of others.
