BUESos AYREs, Sept. 22-The latest ad-
vices from Brazil are that the ships of Adj
miral De Mello are biockading the port of
Santos. II is also reported that the in
surgents have captured Desserro, q city of
Brazil on the west coast of Santa Cath

LoSpos, Sept 22-The following dis
patch was sent by the Brazilian govern
ment yesterday afternoon: THE sedi-
ton is confined TO part of the squadron.
Ali the states without exception agree with
Presldenl Pelxoto as to the necessity of
suppressing the sedition. The vessels in
the bay are deprived of the power of move
ment, and cannot land owing to the resist
ance of the land forces nor leave the bay
on account of FIRE from the forts. The
Republica succeeded in escaping, but was
repulsed at Santos.
A prominent Brazilian diplomat now at
Vienna is quoted as saying that the rebel
admiral was q trusted friend of the
late Dom Pedro. He is convinced that
he will eventually triumph and
Prince Pedro, grandson of Dom
Pedro and son of the Countess D'Eu,
now in France, viii be placed on the
throne. A representative of the Asso-
ciated Press discovered the princess place

opinion concerning the revolution. simply
deprecating the trouble and hoping there
would be no bloodshed.
A Brazilian legation representing the
rebels arrived today on diplomatic mis-
sion, supposed to be touching recognition
of the new government when established.
Adviees early this morning from Rio
Jansiro are to the effect that the city is
still in the hands of the government
forces, but surrender is momentarily ex-
pected. The rebel admiral. firing of
the dilatory tactics of the govern
ment, has ordered the decks cleared
for action, drums beat to quarters
and guns shotted and run out.
All eyes were turned toward the flagship,
whence the signal to commence firing is
expected every moment. The utmost con-
sternation prevailed among the inhabit-
ants seen in the city. Everybody expects
today to decide the fate of the city, either
to be shelled into subsection or surrender
before firing begins.

menced week ago Wednesday and fin
ished on the Saturday following. The
quantity of hops this year will not
be quite up to the expectations OF .
few weeks ago. but the quality in
nearly every case will be better than for
many years past. Growers are exercising
the utmost vigilance in seeing that their
hops are picked free CT leaves and stems.
so much so that pickers complain and de-
clare that the most rapid ones can not
pick much over q box in day. Growers
now realize that in the past they have been
entirely too lenient regarding this matter
for their own financial good, and have
called halt.
Seemingly but little attention is being
paid to the market just now. the principal
anxiety being to harvest the crop in a
proper manner There will be plenty of
opportunity to look after prices later.

story.

NEW YogK. Sept 22-The steamship
Prince Wilhelm l., from Port an Prince,
brings news OF the laundering OF Cape
Theron of the Haitian rarship Aiessan-
Dire Potion, with q crew of eighty men and
the following Haitian diplomats en- route
20 Santo Domingo to negotiate treaty:
Gen. Molini. II. Cohen, Haitian ex-fnilis-
ter 10 Mexico, and NJ. de Jeans, Haitian
consul general. One sailor was saved
The disaster occurred September about
fifty miles south from Cape Theron. The
cruiser had Just been put into commission.
She left Port an Prince September 4, bound
for San Domingo. The suddenness and
completeness of the disaster, only one
sailor escaping. makes the affair most
mysterious. Ii is probable the real cause
OF the wrecking Of the ship
wall never be known. According to the
testimony Of the sole SURVIVOR there was
absolutely no warning. Neither collision
with another vessel. submerged coral
reef nor storm can account for the occur
renee.
The day was fair and the passengers
were enjoying themselves in the cabin.
Suddenly the vessel began to sink. The
officer of the watch ordered the men TO
pass the word in the cabins and forecas.le,
reach the deck quickly and jump over
board. IL was already too late. There
was terrible confusion in the cabin as the
panic-stricken passengers struggled to
reach the deck. In minute from the
time she began TO sink the vessel was en-
tireiy under water. The one sailor,
as the ship sank under hims
snafched n nair of oars from n iifeboat and
threw himself into the water. He caught
a plank on which he drifted for thirty-six
hours, with nothing to eat or drink. He
was picked up about fifty miles southeast
of Port Humet. For a long time the east
away was unconscious aud could not
speak. The lost vessel was doubtless of
the mitrailIease type Of gunboat so popu-
lar with the Haitians.

BAD LATIN AND WORSE GERMAN
Inscriptions That Any Schoolboy Would
Be Ashamed OF.

The Latin and German inscriptions
on the cane presented to Claus Spreck.
els have been the cause of much
amusement to educated people. The
authors of that insulting and lbeous
inscription, besides showing an abund-
ance Of impudence combined with a
want of common deccncy, have dis
played the grossest ignorance Of the
first principles Of both Latin and Ger
man composition
The Latin line "Ave, Claus, mort.
tuyi te SdIutdHS" combines plural
subject with the first person singular Of
a present pirticiple. The original ex-
preston, familiar to every primary
scholar in Latin, was used by the
gladiators on the occasion of mortal
combats in the Roman amphitheatre
and was addressed by them to the
great Caesar as he sat N the royal box
just previous to the actual combat.
The original reads, "AVe, Cesar,
moyitHri te SdLntamuS,' the correct
translation being, Hail, Cesar, we
who are alb )ut to die salute thee"
But If the Latin is bad the German
composition is even worse. On the
cane the inscription reads "LeJen Sic
hmdeH fahye ind niemalS steyben. "
1t should have read "Leben sic Elm
handeyt jahre md stsrbsn sic MIN
mey," which, correctly translated, means,
May you live hundred years and
never die" The authors of this won.
derful array of hog-Latin and Ger,
man, t content with displaying their
ignorance Of those languages. must
needs accompany it with faulty English
composition. The expression of the
wish that King Claus should never die
makes the wish that he should live a
hundred years a superiority. The eX-
preston of agony which will be APP
parent on the faces OF the educated
men to whom Spreckels is liable to
show the cane when he gets to San
Francisco can better be imagined than
described, while the ignorance displayed
in the inscription itself will reflect on
the intelligence of all those whose
names accompany it.

Alaska was annexed. The time
may come when it will want to be ad-

OUR ELECTRIC SYSTEM.
DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW
BUILDING.
A Splendid Brick Structure About to
be Erected at Halekauwila and
Alakea Streets.

The Board of Directors of the Elec-
trio Light Company held an informal
meeting yesterday in the office of
architect Ripley for the purpose Of con,
sideriSg the plans prepared for the new
building about to be erected on the
ground recently purchased by the
company on the corner of Halekauwila
and Alakea streets. While several
minor details have not been folly de-
cided on, the plan of the main building
and its general features has been
approved. The building will be one
story high, built of br Ok, and will front
Io2 feet 9 inches on Halekauwila
street, and 100 feet on Alakea street.
The front, looking towards the water,
will present the appearance of double
building there being a wide central
arChed door at each end with arChed
windows on either side, one of these
doors entering into the boiler and fuel
room and the other into the engine and
dynamo room. On the Alakea street
side there will be five large windows
and two doors The height of the
building from fl or to ceiling will be
II feet; the walls ranging in thickness
from I3 to II inches On the Eva
side there will be two windows, while
the rear wall juts against another build
ing. The structure will have double
truss roof covered with corrugated,
each half being surmounted with a
raised ventilation extending the whole
length of the building, similar in APP
pearance to that over the new Spreck-
els warehouse. In the front of the
building are two long, narrow openings
for the wires. The corners of the
building and the window and door
facings will be of native dressed stone
and will present handsome and i'm.
posing appearance. The foundation
walls will be of stone and cement, laid
directly on the coral, six feet below the
level of the street, while the main floor
will be one foot above. The interior
plan of the building shows a main
brick partition wall cutting the struct-
ure into two rooms connected by an
arched doorway. The room on the
EVA side will be "A #. 4 in. by 97,Io
in the clear, and is designated as the
boiler and fuel room. The floor of
this room will be macadam. The
other room will be 81 #. by 81 it. 10
in. in the clear and will contain the
engine and dynamo, storage batteries,
offices, etc. The new building viii be
amply sufficient to contain all the ma
chinery needed to supply electric lights
and motor power for a city twice the
size of Honolulu, and INTELLECTUALLY
considered would be an ornament to
any city. c. B. Ripley is the architect,
and bids for the prompt instruction
of the building will probably be asked
for in few DAYS.

How About Your Eyesight.

This is a matter that H. + Wich-
man, the popular Fort-street jeweler,
is anxious about, according to the terms
of an adv. in another column. In
conversation with Mr. WlChman this
morning he told STAR reporter that
his business in the optical line has
more than doubled since he moved
into his new store, while his business
generally has largely increased. He is
more than satisfied with the returns
from his new venture. With recent
improvements in optical machinery,
Mr.. Wichman is now prepared to grind
special lenses to order, which is more
than can be done at any jeweIry esta5.
