But this 10 the transportation depart
ment. and railways by no means monop-
Ollie transportation on the face OF this
globe Of ours. Transportation by water is
magnificentiy represented. though instead
of the steamers and large ships of course
we have to be contented with models of
them. But these models are accurate and
beautiful and enable the average visitor
to study marine architecture to better adj
vantage than he could by expending his
energies and confusing his mind Chamber
ing about the mighty originals. These
models of naval and merchant marine
ships fascinate great throngs of visitors.
The people seem never to tire of looking
at the models Of her majesty's cruisers
and battleships-"TheS Scout, y" 1.-The Terp-
sichore," America" and others; nor at
the Spanish warrior. lei Destructor." or
the models Of the famous transatlantic
steamers. Among these last the record
breaking '.Campania" is always center
of interest.
The nearest approach 20 . reproduction

out of the side of monster modern pas
senger steamer. It - seventy-three feet
long and thirty-five feet wide. 1t shows
the smokestack, or one-halt Of it, rising
seventy feet from the door. 1t contains
four floors, or decks, and shows steerage.

A single exhibit, that Of tho oldest

ton. It consists not only Of cid loco
motives and cars side by side with q mod
ern train, but most surprising and in
structive collection Of pictures which
graphically show the development of rail-
ways in America. England, France and
Germany. Nothing like it was ever before
attempted. There are more than LOO
pictures in all. and how they were ever
gotten together is moro than one can
imagine In addition to all these there is
a display Of steam carriages used in the
last century before the development even
of the earliest locomotive. This single ex-
hibit cost $50. 600. and is q mon ument not
only to the enterprise of an American rail.

amazing department one is quite ready to
believe the statisticians who tell Us the
railways of the world represent one-tenth

one-quarter or 'one-third Of his invested

Americans study railways only BY the

saved so many lives and won for herself
impershable renown.
We have had hurried glimpse at trans
portation by water and transportation by
rail. But many methods OF land trans
portation remain to be seen. 1t would
never do to forget street cars and vehicles
for use on common roads for the more
fascinating steamships and locomotives.
Even more important to man than his
railways and his ships are his carriages
and wagons. OF these there are literally
acres and acres. There is nothing in the
line Of vehicles for use by man with draft
animals that is not shown here.
1t is pleasure to not that both in de-
sign and workmanship the American
makers Of wagons and carriages easily
lead the world. Where other nations fol-
low beaten tracks the American boldly
strikes ont for new adaptations. This -
particularly noticeable in the field OF light
pleasure vehicles and wagons for special
industrial purposes. In both these lines
the Yankee makers have made wonderful
progress during the last five or six years.
They fashion a new, light. graceful and
convenient road or driving wagon for
every day in the year. For every phase of
industrial or commercial activity they

The way Chicago's rich men re-
spond to any appeal to their civic
pride is something which may be
commended to millionaires of other
cities. The Worlds Fair city now
wants a Columbian museum. Its
home will probably be the beauti-
full art palace at Jackson park. Mar
shall Field was the first rich man to
come to the front. He promised
100000, and he vas seconded by
George M. Pullman, who gave
100000. With such a nucleus
the city is sure of a fine museum.
In New York or any other large
city in the country it would have
required mass meetings and hard
work in personal solicitation to
raise half the amount which these
two enterprising Chicagoans fur
nished in ten minutes.-Ex.

Honolulu will require, and, as
we now have some six large
wiring contracts to begin on,
as soon as the Australia gets
in with a big lot of assorted
wire, we would call the atten-
ton Of those wanting ELECTRIC
LIGHTS in their Houses at an
early date to the advisabilty Of
having the wiring done soon.
AS only limited number of
good house wire men are to
be had, contracts for wiring
will have to be taken up in
turn in the order received.
After the Australia gets in
we will have a complete line
of everything needed to wire
any building, including Elec-
troliers, Brackets, ETC., and a
large assortment of plain and

Says the enthusiastic (O
supporter of newspapers, who
may suppose that Il daily
journal owes each issue to the
amount it collects for the edi-
ton at two cents a copy.
The price at which the daily
newspapers in Honolulu are
furnished the reading public is
lower than any city in the
United States, comparative
to the possible number of
patrons.
1t seems eXpedient to eX-
plain that the terms on which
a paper is left at your door is
not two cents a copy, and
wait month to get fifty cents,
nor can a daily newspaper af-
ford to sell at two cents a
copy even if every person call
ed for it each day, at the same
time paying for it.
But to insure the public that
an account of occurrences OF
