The Hawaiian Gable Survey.

WASHINGTON, June 23.-Lieut.
enant- Commander Clover, the
photographer of the Navy De.
partment, was to-day shown an
article from San Francisco ex-
pressing some apprehension that
the Pacific cable survey was in
jeopardy because the United States
ship Thetis, which at first had
been selected to do this work, had
finally been sent to the Behring
Sea. Mr.. Glover said: "You may
assure the people of the Coast that
this matter will not be neglected.
/ am anxious to have this work
done, and you may rest assured
that it will not be long until it is
accomplished, perhaps very soon.
At any rate, you may say that
without doubt it will be completed
before the next meeting of Con-
gross. "-[Telepraph Dispatch.

ia AOOU VI OoAoOAO OiSc ouu otoOp-
era, and the wharf builder who
wants planklng that will stand
hard usage from iron-shod horses
and dray wheels. For these latter
purposes where durability is the
great object, no island wood equals
ohia, Of which we are told there
are four varieties, called in native
apane, kauokahiki, kumakua and
ahihi, though no doubt the same
wood had different name on each
of the islands of the group.
The various purposes to which
the different woods were assigned
before the discovery, or re-dis-
covery, of the islands by Cook, Is
both curious and interesting, thus
the 'Hama" maba sandevicensis was
held in high esteem by the old
priests and chiefs and was the only
timber allowed in the elaborately
wrought wooden fence surround
ing a temple Or house of Lono,
while the ohias furnished the wood
preferred for certain idols.
The principal, and most widely
known and universally useful of
all native woods is OF course the
koa of which there are several
varieties, that Familiarity known as
"curly koa" being the prettiest for
ornamental cabinet work, though
other varieties are rarer, closer In
grain and darker in color, and
these were used for the paddles of
the canoes of high chiefs, as we'll
as for spears and digging imple-
ments.
In speaking of koa, of course,
one must needs refer next to kou,
always favorite wood with the
chiefs, and now a combination OF
these two remarkably handsome
woods is the favorite material for
the cabinet maker.
The ke'a or kalamona and the
uhiuhi are both hard, dark, and
ebony like woods, the latter was
formerly used for spears, war clubs,
agricultural implements, tapa beat.
ers, etc.
The illahi or sandal wood formed
the first article of export from these
islands, and the high prices given
in China for their precious incense
bearing wood led very soon to it's
almost complete extirpation. The
naio or bastard sandalwood gives a
fragrance not unlike sandal wood,
but too pungent.
The timber of the ulu or bread
fruit is too soft for general use and
moreover it was protected by rea-
son of the food value of the tree,
but the sap being of very gummy
consistency was used by the old
bird catchers for Inning the 90
for the famous yellow feather
| cloaks.
Without specifying any other of
the ninety-seven indigenous woods
of which specimens were brought
together by Mr.. Thrum, it would
be we'll for all Hawaiians to re-
member that there are yet great
number of very beautiful woods in
this country, that there formerly
were many others, some of which
have been wantonly or of mere
greed utterly exterminated. Wheth-
er the next generation shall have
richer or poorer exhibit of val
liable wood depends largely On the
present rising generation.
Planting should bear some rela-
ton to cutting, and cattle fences to
numbers of cattle.

MONDAY, July 6.

Has it ever occurred to you,
that the best insurance is a fire
and burglar-proof Safe ? Per
haps it has and you thought,
from what your friends have
told you of the price they paid
long ago that you could not
afford to buy one.
Good Safes at prices less
than reasonable are an inno-
walton here and we believe we
are responsible for it. Take a
peep at those just inside the
entrance to our store.
We mentioned, incidentally,
last week something about
Haviland ware; we're through
stock taking now and have
opened a number of casks of
just such China as you want to
make your table a poem and
| your China pantry a picture.
Haviland ware not only inn
proves the appearance of the
table but adds, as we'll, to the
taste of the good things set
before your guests.
One great advantage in
Haviland is the fact of your
+being able to buy a single
piece at the same rate you
would a hundred and you don't
have to buy a full set at one
time. You can buy 1a doz.
plates and have a nucleus of a
dinner or tea set and add to it
as you wish. Ifyou have what
is called a regular set " of
decorated China and your SER
want breaks even a single
piece your set is ruined be-
cause it is impossible to match
dishes in such sets. With
Haviland's it is different, we
make a specially of and rec
ommend a very pretty pattern
known as "2Ie6." Selected
because Of its delicate beauty,
and because it is the prettiest
of a hundred or more different
patterns made by Haviland.
| The flowers are so natural in
appearance that they need
only fragrance to tempt one to
pick them from the dish. You
think we exaggerate but we
don't; come and see for your
self. In addition to the regu-
lation pieces for dinner or tea
we have sets for fish, berries,
salad, ice cream or roast beef.
If you already have a set that
you do not want to lay aside
we will help you to break the
monotony of the meal by sell
ing you the necessary pieces
for a single course, saya salad
set. You'll make a great i'm
preston on your guests if you
accept our suggestions, and
you will be pretty well pleased
with the taste you have shown
in the selection.
Are youinterested in lamps?
We are and for that reason we
are careful to get the best. So
should you. If Diogenes had
provided himself with one such
as we offer you he would have
found the honest man he was.
looking for and would have.

with considerable difficulty he crossed
