SECOND STORY.

The exterior of this cottage is we'll
broken by gables and dormer windows,
which, with the long sloping line of roof
which extends over the veranda, give a
most pleasing appearance. The roofs are
painted q venetian red; the shingles in the
second story and clapboards in first story a
light drab, with dark drab trimmings, with
holdings and sash picked out in bright
red. The effect of the whole is chaste and
pleasing to people of refinement. If so de-
sired, comfortable bathroom could be
added in the second story at small cost.
The hardware in the first story is of
bronze; in the second story bronzed iron
with jet knobs. This house, with heat
ing, etc, and bathroom complete, would
cost about -. 500, Without the bathroom
it could be built Cor $500

goes without saying, intelligently in seven

Chang has appeared before Queen Victo-

Chang is married. His wife is an Aus

NJ Chang, who not long ago was decorat-

man in the world. This giant, who is feet
tall, strangely enough was born in China,

MIR. BLoUNT's APPOINTMENT.
He Has Been Made Minister at the Hawaiian
Islands I'm Place of Mr. Stevens.

Ex-Representative Blount of Georgia has
been appointed United States minister at the
Hawaiian Islands in place Of Mr. Stevens. who
Is said TO have displeased the President .by his
active interest in the cause Of annexation.
This change was made several DAYS ago. but
was kept secret until now. 1t was generally
expected that Mr.. Blount would receive this
appointment, but il was not looked for until
near the end of this month. Minister Stevens
had arranged TO leave Honolulu on the 2.tb
instant, and it was thought he would be al
lowed to serve until that time. His alleged
activity in behalf of the annexationists is said
to be the principal cause of his earlier relief.
Officials OF the State Department desire il
known that Mr.. Bowen and Mr.. Sewell. who
are now in Honolulu. are not connected with
the department in any capacity. These gem
hemen are stimulating the annexationist senti-
ment, and the impression mas obtained that
they represented the administration. Mr.
Blounts appointment would seem TO disprove
the statement that Minister Stevens had been
requested 10 continue to act Until the question
OF annexation had been settled one way or the
other.

THE HAWAIIAN PROBLEM.
Annexation Claimed &c BE the Only satis-
factory solution.

Annexation Claimed &c BE the Only safis-
factory solution.
The following is an extract from private
letter by gentleman for many wears identified
with Hawaii and holding a high position there
as an educator:
1.-The logic Of the situation here is altogether
favorable to annexation. A protectorate would
simply perpetuste what has always xisted. VIZ,
quasi dependence on the friendly mediation
of the United States when trouble threatens.
This has not contributed to the stability of the
government. nor has il reinforced the prestige
of the United States in the premises. There
has been a steady drift in recent wears toward
British sentiment, and there have been times
when the English contingent here has success
fully combined and advanced anti-American
interests. Should the present opportunity pass
unlmproved there will be a distinct falling OF
in American influences The American policy
OF refusing 10 assume the responsibility OF pro-
viding for the government of this country az an
integral part of the United States. while at the
same time declaring that the intervention OF
any other nation will not be permitted, is to
say the least. a sortid and unjust policy if, in
deed. II Ia not untenable. Hawaii must get
along as best it may, for according to this
policy America does not care TO shoulder any
obligation and will not permit any other ma
ton TO do so. Or. putting II another way, tho
United States wants all the advantages Of the
control of Hawaii without comforting on her
citizens any adequate compensation for such
control. not allowing any other nation even to
buy such control by providing a stable govern
ment. The morals Of annexation not all on
one side. American sentiment would be rapid
were England, for instance. to enunciate any
such doctrine this: We will not take the
islands. but America shall not have them. and
We will not permit the people in the islands to
secure absorption into any other nationality"

Municipal Lighting.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
After reading Mr. Dodge's communication
on the subject of electric lighting. &C.. VEN
'ure to ask him through THE STAR for infor-
nation on the following points, which his arti-
Gle does not seem to cover: Do the towns and
cities mentioned as doing their own lighting
string their wires on poles or use an under
ground wire insulated in conduits as is done
here? Is it not likely that lighting could be
done here at a very much lower rate and with a
greater profit to the lighting company if thew
were allowed to use the cheap and nasty"
system as is done in some of the places mem
toned? Coal suitable TOR generating electric
ity can be purchased in the anthracite regions
for from IS cents to 81 per ton. How does that
compare with the prices paid here?
Will Mr.. Dodge kindly furnish an estimate
OF cost per mile for laying underground wire,
including cost OF conduit. cutting and repair
ing street, cost of lead-covered wire &c?
Does il actually cost twice as much to oper-
ate a two thousand candle-power light as a one
thousand candle-powe lamp? C.

MARRIED MEN IN THE ARMY.
They GIVE the Department More Trouble
Than Single Men.

1t appears that married men are not wanted
in the ranks of the army and that the re-enlist-
ment of married soldiers is to be discouraged
The recent ruling TO this effect has naturally
aroused the benedicts and they have protested
against the discrimination.
An officer of the adjutant generals depart
ment explains the departments action as fol-
lows:
lit is found that married soldiers give the
department great deal more trouble than the
single men Whenever there is to be q change
of stations the married men begin 20 work FOR
C transfer. so that their families NAV not be
compelled TO pack up and move with the troops.
This causes the annoyance Of securing other
men and leads 10 much extra clerical work. A
recent experiment in DENYING transfers and
compelling married men TO go with their troops
did not relieve the department of annoyance,
for the married soldier usually left his wife at
his old post and devoted himself at his new
station, with the aid Of bis wife AZ the former
post, TO securing transfer or discharge.
The War Department has given lite recruiting
and enlistment officers TO understand that mar
ried soldiers may be denied re-enlistment In the
army"

Health Officer Hammett to Close Those
Found to Be Polluted.
Disease has been attributed to the rank pol
luton of some of the wells of the District and
Health Officer Hammett, after consultation
with the Commissioners today, decided
to make a careful and thorough analy-
sis of the water from all wells and
springs within the city limits. He proposes to
begin the work of collection today. and the
chemist of the health Office will at once com
purity.
DIR. Hammett is very much interested in this
work. and said to reporter of The STAR this
morning that he believed that the investigation
would result in the closing of a number of
wells.
The District of Columbia has at present
about 275 wells and springs. most of which, In
addition to its aqueduct, are in public use as
sources of water supply by large number of
people. With few exceptions these
wells are shallow, averaging In depth
about thirty feet. In some cases thew are
supplied by flowing springs, in others only by
ground water. but all much influenced by
the latter, and as they are not sealed up in a
water-tight banner receive varying amounts Of
storm watsf teaching through the surface
soil They are subject therefore to the
following sources of contamination: Oxi-
died products of filth from soil. which has
supported a dense population for many years.
carried into the wells and springs by the
teaching process. Direct sewage contamination
from improper sanitary arrangements. or from
adjoining sewers forming part of our sewage
system. Storm water carrying in surface filth
Roots of trees reaching the well. Dripping
back into the wells of water from
the pump. The health officer is
determined to examine this matter with
the greatest care, and if wells or rings are
found that are contaminated to such an extent
as to be dangerous they will be filed up and
abandoned. On the other hand. if it is found
that the pollution is not of serious character,
but due to the uncleanly condition of the well.
it will be thoroughly cleaned before allowed to
be used

missioners today: "We have examined a
number of the applications on which
liquor licenses were granted last year.
In so doing we find that on the
list of owners and residents are the names of
persons who do not live on the street at all.
some of the persons whose names are forged
and Others of persons who are neither real
estate owners nor housekeepers. We will
submit proofs of these statements in another
paper. In view of these facts We humbly beg
that YOU have the list of signers to each appli-
cation published in the daily papers of this
city. This is due to property interests and to
the character and interests of private citi-
zens. We also urge that You require
that all applicants for liquor saloons be re-
quired to give the names and addresses of
each one favorable to the application. and that
the assessor be required to give the names of
all the property owners in each street in
question; and the police officer who is
required to verify the signatures be required
to give in each case the full number of resi-
dents In the square or squares concerned in
