British Admirals Who Have Drowned.

British AdmfrotS W no hnFe Oro~neu'
Sir George Tryon is the fourth British
admiral who has lost his life by ship
wreck or disaster unconnected with war
fare since the beginning of the last cen
tury. In October, 1707, Sir Cloudesley
Shovel shared the fate of the crew of the
Association, and on Aug. 30, 1882, Ad-
smiral Kempenfelt was drowned by the
"heeling over" Of the Royal George.
The great loss of life by the sinking of
the Victoria is ascribed to her suddenly
heeling over, as in the case Of The Royal
George, but the present cate ,trophe is,
by comparison, not nearly IS appalling
as the shipwreck Of the st. George, the
Defense and the Hero on be coast Of
Jutland in 1911, when Admir- Reynolds
and 1000 sailors persisted. = London

To the Editor of the Press:
I wish to call attention to a local notice
appearing in Mondays paper under the
heading IA Hot Sunday" and especially
to the following sentence 1.-THE waves
were white capped in the harbor and the
dust blew in pillows in town. Most
emphatieally the dust did blow not only
in pillows but in clouds. 1t enveloped
everybody, filled the newly painted
houses with dirt, and if any cholera
germs were developing around the edges
of the city they must have been sent to
every street and every house in town.
wonder if anyone enjoyed then their
walk to church, or elsewhere! What
might have been refreshing breeze was
turned into an all-permeating dust cloud.
Was there remedy for this annoying
and unhealthy state of affairs?
Yes, it required only that the Street
Sprinkling Co. send their carts on
their regular routes once at 8 a. M, and
again at 2 p. m. Those who are paying
to have streets sprinkled during the
week are wasting money, for the goo6
work is all undone on Sunday so far as
the outside of their property is concern

THE MAINE BUILDING.
Great Times at the Worlds Fair on Mon
day.

Every one attached to the Maine Build
Ing wore his Sunday clothes Monday, and
the finishing touch was placed on every
thing about the place. This was in hon
or of the arrival of Governor Cleaves and
staff and the members of the Council.
They came out to the grounds early, and
went at once to the State Building, where
they looked upon everything of interest.
They then started out on a tour of sight
seeing, visiting the principal buildings.
Gen. Conner was placed in an amusing
predicamenti in the Administration Build
ing He entered an elevator on one of
upper floors to go to the ground floor.
When near the third floor the lift stopped
and all the coaxing the elevator man
could do would not make the elevator
move. The General after a little delay,
however, managed to get out and rejoin
his companions. He said, however, that
when he wants to go up into any building
on the grounds hereafter he will simply
walk up the stairs in the old fashioned
way.
Governor Cleayes expressed himself as
much pleased with the fair as far as
he has been able to see it. He expected
to see it in a more finished condition and
thinks that people who come now and do
not intend to come again will wish they
had waited until later in the season. He
said, however, that there was no doubt
but that man could get his moneys
worth.
The Governor ana his staff have an in
vitation to witness the production of
america" at the Auditorium some
night this week, and will avail them
selves of the invitation. AT o'clock yes
terday he and his staff and the mem
bers of the couecil were the guests of the
Sons of Maine of Chicago at banquet
at the Union League Club.

STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST

A big white can buoy was recently an
chored few miles off Cape Porpoise by
a government vessel to serve as the finish
mark for the New York's twenty miles
trial trip. Bert Norwood, one of the
down river fishermen, was off the coast
Sunday in his fishing smack and sudden
ly sighte this strange buoy. He knew
that the buoy was not usually there, and
more than that he could think Of no
reason that it should be there. The only
thought that entered his head was that
it was a & ,vernment buoy that had got
adrift. He decided to tow it in hoping
to get reward for so doing, and in few
minutes he had succeeded in casting a
painter around it and had it securely
fastened to the stern of his boat. The
buoy seemed to travel through the water
a little at first, as the chain by which it
was anchored had a little slack. but very
soon he begun to be aware that his boat
was making very hard weather of it, 1t
was some time, however, before he tum-
bled to the fact that the buoy was secure
ly anchored and could not have been car
ried off by steam tug.
The so-called Poland Plains in Poland
burned ovey Sunday. This is tract of
lduu VI dUOuG OuU acres, covered WIN low
scrubby bushes and was of no particular
value, except that it was an excellent
preserve for small game. 1t is thought
the fire was set, accidentally of course,
BY some of the laborers employed on the
Rumford Falls railway. Nearly the
whole tract was laid low.
Already people who have cottages at
Bar Harbor are on their way there. Dur
ing the past winter several fine cottages
have been erected there. Among those
who have built are T. B. Musgrave of
New York; George X. Rollins Of New
York; Hugh Mcmillan of Detroit; Dr. j.
D. Jones of Washington, D. c.; Charles
Frye of Boston; Mrs. Daniel Kimball of
Boston; Jesse Hoyt of New York; Mrs.
George Pendleten Bowler of Cincinnati,
and Reuben Hoyt of New York. The
demand for cottages is greater than was
ever known. Among those who have
secured rents for the season are many
prominent people all over the country.

From our San Francisco Correspondent
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1893-09-30

will have to be blasted through coral
reef at great expense. II vessels OF
the United States should try TO emerge
from the harbor in face of n single
formidable ironclad they would prob
ably be hammered to pieces.
'Now If protectorate is established
/ will use all my influence to secure
for the United States a coaling station
at the entrance of the harbor of Ho-
perior to any other location in the
whole islands. 1t can be made avail
able at an expenditure of no more
than $4,000, and the United States
shall have fee simple of ii IL have to
purchase it myself and make il pres
ent to the government"
Spreckels had no sooner reached the
capital city than Thurston heard of il
and also OF what he had said. He also
learned that Spreckels intended 10 see
the president and make the battle
against annexation in that quarter.
In an interview he said that the last
information he had received from the
Provisional government was to the
effect that there was a surplus of $780,
600 in the treasury and that the postal
savings bank had surplus of $50 600.
He regarded as most significant sign
of the governments stability the fact
that the issue Of $780, 900 Of siX-per-
cent. bonds for internal improvements
had been put OIL the home market and
sold, a few of them at 80, but most OF
them at par.
"The attitude of Spreckels," con-
tinued Thurston, sis simply a matter
of business. He wants cheap coolie
labor and knows this system would
be done away with if the country were
an American state"
Thurston. in conclusion, said most
eriphatically that he considered the
Provisional government was strong
enough to hold the reins until the
final decision is reached.
'It is the strongest government Ha-
wall has had for years, if she ever had
a stronger" he said.
On the 21st inst. Mr.. Thurston, rep
resenting the Provisional government,
published an open letter to Claus
Spreckels, in which he reiterates the
charges that Spreckels tried to en-
barrass the Provisional government
by suddenly demanding the payment
of loan OF S95, 900 to the royalist
government. Thurston says that SOL
diers were placed in charge Of the gov
eminent buildings to prevent Spreck-
els and other rOyalist supporters from
carrying out their repeated threat OF
restoring the ex-queen by force. lie
cites the continued peace and the sur
plus in the treasury 20 show the sue
cess of the new government. Thurs
ton declares that planters, almost
without exception, prefer to take their
chances without contract coolie labor
rather than to bear the misgoyern-
ment of the past. Spreckels knows,
he asserts, and other planters know,
and the people of the United States
know that there is as much probable
ity of the Hawaiian planters receiving
the bounty of 2 cents pound on their
sugar as there is of the traditional
rich man entering the kingdom OF
heaven.
