or a little over $4,000 a month. 1t
seems little enough in view of the
of the work, yet the
Ways and Means Committee of
the Legislature propose to cut into
it very seriously. 1t is difficult to
see where anything can be cut off
without serious loss.
METEoROLOGY.
The reports made each month
and published in this paper render
it unnecessary to make much Of a
review. 1t is interesting, however,
to note that the large number of
volunteer observers of rainfall con-
tinue the useful statistics from
which, after a few years, import
ant general deductions can be
made.
A monthly leaflet is now pub
lished giving the important facts
of the preceding month. The tide
gauge observations are of interest,
and demonstrate what many have
observed, that there is great irregu-
larity and variation III our tides
Specimen sheets of the monthly re-
ports are given.

REPORT OF THE MINISTER OF IN.
TERROR.

This report is mainly compila-
ton of reports of different bureaus
and officers belonging to the Int
rior Department, with a short re-
port of the Minister appended.
The reports of the Boards of Health
and immigration are separate. The
main report makes volume of 2S4
pages, besides an index, which, by
the way, is a very creditable fea-
ture of most of this years reports.
The reports covered by the Minis
ter are those of the Surveyor-Gen-
eral, with Meteorological officer,
Fire Department, Insane Asylum,
Water Works, Road Supervisor and
Road Board, Superintendent of
Public Works, Electoral Registrar,
Registrar of Conveyances, Commits
sioners of Agriculture and Forestry,
Clerk of Market, Veterinary Sur
geon and Kapiolani Park. These
reports will be separately treated.
1t may be promised that there is
some confusion and waste arising
from the fact that in some instan-
ces two bureaus or officers deal
with the same subject and report
without much, if any, apparent
gain to the public interests.
sURvEYoR-aENERAL.
The work of this Office is always
interesting and valuable, perhaps
never more so than during the last
period. 1t is also surprisingly va
ried. The country is to be con-
graduated in retaining the services
of SO eminent and learned a scien-
tist as Professor Alexander. The
report does not state and it is not
generally known that his valuable
services have been recognized in
other countries. lie has recently

surprises in this election, losses oc-
curing where success was deemed
certain, and gains where there was
small chance of victory. 1t seems
that the Liberals will succeed in
electing a majority of the House of
Commons, though the majority
will not be nearly SO large as was
anticipated before the election be-
gan.
One thing is made clear - the
cause of Home Rule has met with
serious setback. The English
voter, seeing the Home Rule party
in Ireland separated into factions
and the northern counties prepar-
ing for revolt should a Parliament
be set up in Dublin, may well be
pardoned for holding the opinion
that the granting Of Home Rule
would be the signal for plunging
Ireland into civil war. The appeal
of Protestant Ulster to Protestant
England, Scotland and Wales to
sustain Imperial rule, was address
ed to the strongest of all sentiments
the religious one. 1t is now toler-
ably plain that before the Irish
people can hope for Home Rule
they must ask for it with practical
unanimity. That is to say, the
North and South must compose
their differences, and the names of
Parnellite and anti-Parnellite dis
appear from politics.
Must Apply to Congress.
| WASHINGTON, July 7.-Secretary
Foster of the Treasury Department
recently received a letter from the
Spreckels Company, calling atten-
ton to the fact that large quantities
of beet sugar are imported at San
Francisco and elsewhere from the
free port of Hongkong, where an
extensive manufacturing plant has
been established by English col
onists. The Spreckels Company
says that the raw material is pro.
duced there by slave labor and
that the men employed in the re.
fineries receive only 10 cents q
day. The company says that
these importations are destructive
to American industries and asks il
they cannot be prohibited under
the reciprocity clause of the Nc
Kinley law.
Secretary Foster has replied tina
in the absence of any evidence
that Hongkong is discriminating
against the United States in favor
of any other country he fails to SCI
, any warrant for Executive inter
ference in the matter, and he sug
gests that Congress alone can pro
vide remedy.

the ordinary, unsightly black
things that have been sold for
centuries. There are improve

Now is the season for cold
things-and we commend to
your notice the triple-acting

freezers say this is the best
make that has ever been put
on the mark. About nine
minutes is the amount of time
necessary to make ice cream.
In six weeks the close sea-
son on game expires and the
local sportsman will be, off for
his regular Saturday til Mon
day jaunt. Last year our
sales of ammunition to
shootists were fifty per cent.
larger than the previous year.
Why? Because we were
careful in the selection
of the goods suited
to their purpose. This year
we are better prepared to sup
ply their wants than ever.
There's a roomy corner of the
store crowded with Cartridges
of various good makes. Not a
dreary heaping up of tiresome
mistakes but a clean, clear,
well-chosen stock of just what a
sportsman wants in the way Of
ammunition.
Just inside our door you will
notice heaps of Cocoa Mats
They are sent to us by our
London agent and reached us
by the "Phuger." They're
cheaper than dirt, which in this
country implies a great deal.
Did you ever hear Of a Cocoa
Mat for fifty cents Come to
us and we will show them to
you; not poorly thrown to-
gether things but good ser
vicable Mats, good enough for
anyone.
A good thing to go with the
Cocoa Mat is a Hartman Steel
Wire Mat for Kidding the foot

of a Hartman is its length oil

not seen any that have been
in use a hundred years but
there is no doubt Of their being
built strong enough to last
for ever.

No Tslsgraph POLES In chiaa.

There are no telegraph poles in China.
Not because there are no telegraph lines,
nor yet because there IL not wood suitable
for use as poles. Strangely enough the
reason 10 purely religious. The Chinese
worship their dead fathers and grand
fathers and regard the resting places Of
their remains as SO sacred that they deem
It sacrilege to allow a shadow to be
cast upon their graves. When the line
men Of the first Chinese telegraph COM
panies began operations they were em-
barrassed in their operations by crowds
of Inhabitants who followed them about
and, with the most frightful blasphemies,
cut down the poles almost as fast as they
were erected. For some time no expla-
nation could be obtained, but at last the
working parties discovered that in the
more thickly-settled districts OF the
Celestial empire graves were everywhere
to be found, and scarcely pole could be
erected anywhere but that at some time
of the day 1t cast its shadow on grave.
The difficulty was insuperable, and the
Chinese government, anxious as 1t was to
render assistance, stood powerless. So
all the wires went underground, and it is
said the system proved perfectly efficient.

The amount of lime sSits In water
which drains from districts made up Of
granite and basalts Il found by compare
son OF different analysis to be on an aver
age Of about 3.7S parts In 10000 parts Of
water. Il d further assumed BY those
who take this mode Of reckoning the age
OF the world that the excess areas Of ig-
neous rocks, taken on an average through
out all geological time, will bear TO the ex-
posures Of sedimentary rocks ratio ofone
70 nine. From these and other more COM
plicated data II has been inferred that the
elimination Of the calcareous matter now
found In all the sedimentary strata must
have been going ON through q period of
6OO, O00, 600 yearsl This, therefore, repre-
SCENTS the minimum age Of the world.
Biologists also conclude that the forma-
ton Of the Laurentian, Cambrian and
silnrian strata occupied period OF about
2OO, O0O, 900 years; the red sandstone, the
earboniferous and the pecilitic systems
another zoo, 00o, 900 years, the remaining
2O0, 000, 900 years being taken with the
formation Of all other stratas. Thus we
are led to believe that geological time
has been enormously In excess OF the
limits urged by certain well known ply
sicists, and that II has been ample to all
low for all changes which, on the hypo-
thesis OF evolution, have occurred In the
organic world.-St. Louis Republic.

for making this positive assertion in re-

All the works of man, of whatever

materials already in existence, and all
the work done by man and his enginery
has been accomplished by using current
natural forces, such - the gravitation Of
water, the power Of the wind and the
heat energy OF the sun, or the stored en-

While girls reach full height in their
