such process as the Harrison machine
was about to revolutionize newspaper
telegraphy, and he was understood to
be one of the chief stockh olders in a
company that was to introduce the new
invention. But Mr.. chickering's bright
anticipstions were never realized,
and nothing has been heard
of the invention since. We
do not doubt that the in
ventive genius of the country will yet
evolve some method by which news and
other matter will be transmitted in q
more economical way than at present.
There may, in the Harrison process, be
the germ of a principle that will lead to
that end. But, as Mr.. Jaynes says, it
will not come upon the world suddenly
and myateriously. Its perfection will be
reached by slow stages, and when it is
ready for practical use the whole world
will have been advised by experiment of
its successful application.

The job aspect of the Hawaiian annex
alton business is looming up more and
more forcibly every day. Whether 1t is
quoted in Latin or in English, "Make
haste slowly" is an excellent idea in
this delicate matter. President Harri-
son has sent in to congress the text OF
Secretary OF State Msrcy's dispatch to
Minister Gregg in 1S45. Marcy, who
was the embodiment of American sa-
gacity as we'll as pluck, objected to i'm
mediate annexation. II he had known
that there was in the future PROPOSE
tion to annex Hawaii because the sugar
planters there wanted bonus of $2s, ,000,-
900 year he would object even more Wig
orously. 1t is said in the dispatches that
Marcy's position is substantially that of
Harrison's administration. The real posi-
tion of the United States ia to tender pro-
tectorate and fortify and hold Pearl har-
Dor against all corners. With Pearl har-
Dor secured we have all the ''outposts"
and coaling stations we need. This del
icate little intrigue needs careful watch
ing. The desire of Hawaiians to come
under the protecting eyis Of Uncle
Sam is coincident with the development
of American beet and sugar cane inter-
ests. The United States is not in search
either of leprosy or communities cursed
with cheap contract labor systems.

ADJUSTMENTS.

PARK THEATER. = Proprietor Sawyer
and Manager Cooper have reason to feel
more than satisfied with the opening of
their new house last evening, for the
play of Siberia was given to an audience
of fully 1900 people. The parties
named have tranformed Hazard'e pa
vilion into well-appointed theater.
Much of the superfuous space has been
partitioned from the auditorium, boxes
have been constructed, and the seating
made very comfortable. The stage is
equipped with new and effective scenery,
and all in all the house is most attract
i've.
The opening play, Bartley Campbell's
Siberia, was put on most ambitiouely,
and for first night in new theater,
everything went off most smoothly.
The scenery and properties we're all that
could be desired, and the acts were
mounted most attractively, so much 30
that the settings drew forth approving
applause from the audience. A word OF
praise is due to the costumes worn,
which were rich, new and In the main
appropriate.
The play is familiar one and needs
no comment. 1t is strong, full of dra-
matte situations, and abounds in vari-
ETY., there being 25 in the cast.
Miss George Woodthorpe played the
exigent role of Sara, the Jewess, with
great vigor and expression. She won
the regard the audience at once, and es-
tablished herself firmly as capable, oft
times brilliant actress.
Miss Anita Fallop, as Marie, played
with delicacy and ease which were
most enjoyable.
Mr.. Frank NJ. Readick and Mr.. A. G.
Sutherland displayed considerable abili-
ty, as did the majority of the company.
The audience was we'll pleased with
the performance, and the management
has every reason to consider that their
enterprise has received public approval
that insures its SUCCESS.

PRESBYTERIAN ALLIANCE.

1t Considered Temperance Measures Last
Night.
An adjourned meeting of the Presby-
terian Alliance was held in the parlors
of the First Presbyterian church last
night. The meeting was called for the
purpose of discussing. how to unite the
temperance people in aggressive
work against the saloons. A large
number of those present were not mem
bers of the alliance, but believed in pro-
hibition. The result was that the dis
cussion tended to bring the alli-
ance into politics, which was
contrary to the objects of
the organization. The majority
of the speakers favored the use of
the ballot in abolishing the liquor traffic.
After much discussion it was decided
that the best manner of expediting the
matter was to appoint committee
which would call at some later period a
meeting of all persons friendly to the
prohibition cause.
The chairman, Rev. w. j. Chichester
appointed the committee, with DR..
Weller as chairman. The committee
appointed at the previous meeting of the
alliance to report 9 plan to unite tenn
perance workers presented number OF
resolutions, which were adopted.

HOG CULTURE.

Some Data Gathered by the Chamber
of Commerce.
Secretary Willard was recently asked
by Mr.. Cudahy to ascertain something
of hog raising in this part of the state.
In reply to letters of inquiry to the as
SCISSORS OF several of the counties, Mr..
Willard has received some interesting
tacts.
j. A. Toulon of Ventura county states
that 1865 hogs were assessed in that
county last year, but expects large
increase this year, as the farmers have
given this industry much attention dur.
ing the past year.
Jacob Ross reports that there were
2694 hogs in Orange county in 1892.
In San Diego county, last year, assess
ment was levied on 3349 hogs, but Mr..
G. II. Shepard adds, however, that he is
positive there will be 5000 hogs this
year.
The largest assessment was that Of
Tulare county, which reached 1886
hogs. These figures were furnished by
D. f. Coffee, the county assessor.
A. L. Lightner reported the assess
ment for 1892 in Kern county was levied
on 1926 hogs.

A Tree for Vests venth Street.

The West Side Citizens association

After careful inspection of large
number OF ornamental trees they de-
cided in favor OF the eucalyptus cor

permanently symmetrical and hand
soms tree and does not throw up the
sidewalk with lateral roots. The asso

and Ross, and Pierce had no recourse
upon Ross, and could not claim collu-
sion.
Ross states, in substance, that after
Pierce purchased the half interest, they
loaned to Remand the $500, as Renaud
did not have the required amount, and
that he gave his note for his partner g
interest, but was financially stranded
and could not now pay it.
When the men met yesterday Pierce
asked for the money due him. Ross
stated that he did not have it and could
not pay it. Pierce then struck him.
Ross started down Main street, but was
arrested by Officer Rich.
Shortly after the arrest a man ap-
peared at the station, giving his name
as Hood, and stated that just before the
difficulty between the men he had given
to Ross a check for $500 to be placed in
bank. When arrested no check was
found upon Ross.
When questioned about the matter
Ross denied having any knowledge OF
such check, and stated that the mans
name was George W. Crowell, who had
been assisting him in his present finan-
cial straits.

who lacked just $500 of having the pur-

states, Ranaud suggested to him that ae

Now that the commissioners from the
Sandwich islands are trying to get the
United States to annex them, we are re.
minded of filibustering attempt that
was made upon those islands away back
in 1858. The famous Sam Brannan, who
was then the richest man in California,
conceived the idea that if handful of
Americans went to Honolulu they could
easily subvert the government. Hechart-
cred a vessel and took down large num-
Der of "colonists." The vessel was we'll
armed with liquors and other creature
comforts. They arrived at Honolulu,
but the presence Of several foreign war
vessels damped Sans ardor, and the
trip was turned into a huge junketing
expedition. Brannan built a large
bungalow in the suburbs of the town.
and it was opened in blaze of glory. 1t
was afterwards turned into great gam
bling saloon, and Sam and his crowd
returned to San Francisco, the objects
of the laughter and derision OF the
whole state. That was the first attempt
at annexation.

SUPERINTENDENT J AYNEs of the Western
Union Telegraph does not believe that
there is anything in the Chicago dis
patch which announced that company
had been incorporated there to intro
duce the Harrison typewriting telegraph
system. 1t will be remembered that it
was claimed that Harrison had invented
typewriting machine by which dis
patches would be received and printed
as they were sent from the other end OF
the line. These machines, it was
claimed, would do away with the Morse
dot and dash system, and economize
the cost of transcribing the dis
patches at the point of delivery. Mr..
Jaynes believes it to be merely stock
jobbing fake, for no such invention
could be perfected and ready for sue

orally known to telegraphers. Some ten

which he had held for more than year,
1t has just been discovered that he has
held $4,000, recovered as q fine nearly a
year ago from the American Sugar Re.
fining company. The comptroller's first
knowledge that the state had recovered
this fine was by the application of a
San Francisco law firm, to whom the
prosecution of the suit had been en-
trusted, for the stipulated fee it was to
receive. Mr.. Hart, it seems, is in the
habit of keeping the moneys thus re-
covered until the fact that he has re-
ceived them leaks out from some other
source. The legislature ought to bring
