A Memorial.

The following is taken from the
the Illustrated London News: A
memorial cross has been prepared
at the expense of the National Lep-
rosy Fund to be erected at Molokai
in the Hawaiian Islands, in memory
of Father Damien, the devoted
Roman Catholic missionary at the
leper hospital settlement there. The
cross, which was designed and exc
cuted by Messrs. J. Whitehead &
Sons, Vincent Square, Westminster,
under the supervision OF Mr.. Ed
ward Clifford, has cost f200. 1t is
of polished and unpublished peter
head red granite. The central feature
OF the work IN the front face is a
sculptured portrait in white marble
by MIR. Jos. Whitehead. The inscrip-
ton is deeply cut and glided upon
the three lower steps, and is In the
English and Hawaiian languages,
as follows: "Joseph Damien de
Ne1ster; born Jan. 3, 1910, died

1 it is believed that the activities of these
elevations are so gentle that no serious
| obstruction to the successful laying OF a
cable would result from such Irregular
/ itv of the ocean bed in that region.
The routes from Honolulu either to
| San Diego or to San Francisco present
no special difficulties. On both lines
with the exception OF one submarine
/ elevation found on eacn route, the de-
scent of the ocean bed from the coast of
California to the Hawaiian Islands is
gentle and regular and the bottom most
favorable for the. reception of cable.
The deepest water found on the San
Diego line was 3,O54 fathoms; on the
San Francisco line Sis fathoms-both
depths close TO the islands or some 500
miles only from Maui OF that group.
The money recently appropriated by
Congress for the further work on the
routes will be expended by the u. 5.
photographic Office in markings supple
mentary survey. Soun6ingS will be made
between the positions or stations OF the
TuScarora surveys; the shorter intervals
viii thus determine more closely and
perfectly the contour OF the ocean bed,
preparatory to the actual laying of the
cable.
The San francisco line will doubtless
be adopted, not only because of the
greater Importance OF that city as COM
mercisl centre but also owing 10 the fact
OF shorter distance rs compared with the
route to San Diego.
When once cable communication is
established between North America and
the Hawaiian Islands, extension TO other
points IN the Pacific VIII surely follow.
Australia, now sending her European
mails across the continent OF America,
already clamors for direct Geographic
touch with the United States and the
Dominion of Canada. In connection
with her neighbor and sister colony New
Zealand, she IS fast becoming such
giant in increase oil population, growth
of wealth, and fervor OF political aspira-
ton and demand, that she will be apt to
get what she wants or know the reasons
to the contrary.
The preliminary survey for a cable line
10 Brisbane from Honolulu via the
Phoenix and FIJI Groups has already
been made This was done by Captain
]. n. Miller, Z. 5. n, then in command
Of the ruScarora. The deepest water
found in the l07 soundings made was
3,44S fathoms so that that route may be
deemed to be practicable.

sidy law into operation. The formal
notice OF the department inviting
proposals for ocean mail contracts
was issued on that day. Proposals
are invited from steamship COM
panies for carrying American mails
to foreign countries in vessels of
American build, of the best construc-
ton and highest speed in their re-
spective classes, over routes infinitely
described.
The American ports from which
service is proposed to start are Bos-

line to the same ports is projected
from New Orleans and Galveston,
and 2 new line from New Orleans to
Aspinwall, calling at the ports on
the north coast of Central America
and ports Of the Spanish Main. A
new line on the Pacific coast from
San Francisco to Chill and to the

ADMIRAL BELKYAP On The PACIFIC
CABLE

We publish on our fourth page OF
this issue a most interesting and, to
Hawaii in particular. a most iE.-
portant letter addressed by Ad-
miral BeIknap, L. S. n, now in
command Of the US. Asiatic Squad
ron, TO the editor Of the Japan Her
aid. on the subject Of Transatlantic
telegraph cables.
It viii be remembered that Ad-
miral. then Captain BeIknap, was
~ these Islands in 1874. in com
mand Of the {. S. S. Tuscarora,
which was provided with complete
deep-sea sounding apparatus, and
was employed in making several
lines Of soundings in the Pacific, Of
which one was from this group to
the Coast and another from the
BONN Islands TO these.
OF these two lines, including
further distance Of 500 miles from
the BONN Islands TO Japan, the
admiral says: As regards the
proposed line for a cable from
Yokohama 10 the west coast OF the
United States via the BONN and
Hawaiian Islands. l consider It
not only practicable but certain
that cable will be lald by that
route IN the not distant future"
Furthermore, the Admiral states
that preliminary survey for a ca
bic line to Brisbane, from Homo
lulu, via the Phoenix and Fiji
groups, has already been made by
the Tuscarora, and that the greatest
depth found in 107 soundings was
3 As fathoms, $50 that that route
may be deemed to be practicable. "
We have had a great deal of talk
both in and cut OF the legislature
about the necessity Of this cable.
and had the hands of those gentle
men who were seriously prepared
to take the matter up been sup
ported instead Of, as was actually
the case in some instances, bindered
and thwarted, the question might
have been nearer settlement than
it is.
Two Acts referring to telegraph
cables were passed by the Legisla-
ture OF 1899. one referring to the
inter island cable prolonged the
period granted for completing the
line, and the other granting assist
ance in constructing, laying and
maintaining q line to the coast.
With this latter Act to help, a
gentleman resident mere, went
henca to San Francisco and Wash
ngton and used every endeaYor TO
enlist legislators, capitalists and en-
gineers to take the matter ND. but

FISCHER 5 wrought steel ranges
and have had to lose sales be
cause they were delyaed in
reaching US. We're all right
nova warehouse full of them
and every size you ask for.
These ranges merit more
than a passing notice, and we
are going to tell you some
thing about them you never
knew before. Housewives
don't like to get new stoves
because there's a something
about them that's unpleasant.
| A sort Of dread that the dam
pers won't work, or the stove
will not draw, crops out, and
the good wife prefers to suffer
the Ills that are rather than
fly to those they know not of.
The term range suggests
bricks and mortar, and
weeks fuss and dirt in placing
in position. Not so with the
Fischer-there's no bricking
up to do. All there is to it is
to place it where YOU want and
connect the pipe. Your range
is ready to receive the meats
and in less than the time it
usually takes to cook things,
your food is on the table, more
palatable than it has ever been
before.
You wonder why the Fischer
range should be better than
any other stove Well tell
you. In this country the mat
ter of fuel is a very large
item of expense. As you
have turned over a new leaf
and intend economizing where
you never thought of before,
you may begin on your coal
and wood. 1t is a positive fact
that the Fischer range uses
only about one-half the guam
THY of fuel any other stove
does. That's one point.
Every one who uses the or
binary stoves knows that once
in so often the fire bricks burn
out or break. The fire bricks
in the Fischer range are made
of steel, and you couldn't break
them if you'd let the wheels of
a loaded dray run over them.
That's another good point.
The ovens, as with every
other part, are constructed of.
wrought steel, and it is an
acknowledged fact that this
material will absorb the heat
quicker, more evenly, more in
tensely and retain it much
longer than one made of cast
iron. The heat is more moist.
consequently the food, when
prepared, is not so dry and
void of nutrition, besides be-
ing more palatable. Two or
three good points in one.
The walls of the Fischer
range are double with asbestos
between the two sheets of
steel, thus making them more
durable, and prevents the rad
lation of too much heat into
the kitchen, as does the cast
stove or range. 1t also pro-
tects the lining from being
torn out when ieaning the
hues. The joints of the oven
are riveted closely, thus,g pre-
venting ashes, dust SCOT or
coal gas coming in contact
with the food and making it
worthless. Now then ! These
are a few of the good points
in the Fischer Wrought Steel
Range. Do you want one ?
They burn wood or coal,
and each has the hot water
pipes in position ready to at
tach to the boiler. The larger
have the broilers at
tached and the smaller ones
have everything ready if you
wish to add the broiler. If you
simply want to broil a steak or
a fish, just light a charcoal fire
in the broiler and in a few
minutes you have a delicious
