EDISON AT WORK.
Houses Built and Machinery Pur-
chased Only to be Discarded.

OGDEN, n. j., Aug. 2S.-Wizard
Edison of Menlo and Llewellyn
Parks has become the wizard OF
this place. Before he made his
appearance here there was nothing
but a few scattered farm houses, a
station and some holes in the
ground. Now everything is chang
ed. A half dozen big buildings
filled with machinery are scattered
about, freight cars are on the sid
ings, teams haul heavy loads here
and there and the whole place is
full of activity. Inventor Edison
has spent, it is said, nearly $4,000
600 in Ogden. He has erected,
abandoned and torn down build
ings and machinery with extra
ordinary prodigality, and thus far
his hackers have realized not a
single cent from their investment.
Just when it seemed that his mag
netic process of refining ore was
success and a return for the stock
holders was in sight, Mr.. Edison
became dissatisfied with the pond
erous rollers in which the ore was
crushed and one morning he took
them all out. Then he set to work
and made new and more ponderous
rollers after ideas of his own.
When these were finished it was
found that the belts would not
move them. and it was necessary
to invent a new method to set the
great wheels in motion. Briefly
stated, Mr.. Edison's process is this !:
He proposed with his great roll
lers to grind iron ore into powder
and pass the powder longitudinally
over a rubber belt and over series
of magnets. The magnets are ex-
pected to to separate the iron from
the rock. The whole process is to
be much cheaper than smelling.
There is To be millions in it for the
country. New Jersey is to be re-
stored to first place among IRON
producing States, and another
laurel wreath is to be added to the
brow of Edison.
evil he succeed, do you think ."
one of the brightest men in his en-
ploy was asked.
81 think he will" was the an
swer.
No thought of failure clouds the
brow of the inventor He is the
same frank, smooth-faced, boy-like
Edison that he was ten years ago.
When he is not busy he visits all
the nearby country hotels and tells
funny stories. When he is busy
he works, as of old, thirty-six and
forty-eight hours at a stretch and
without intermission or stop.

Electric Lights for q Cts a Month";

Honolulu uses the electric current for
lighting purposes more generally than do
most American cities of its population.
The reasons are found partially in the eli
mate conditions which urge the
adoption of light unaccompanied by
heat or an offensive odor. Furthermore,
no gas company has found our city an
inviting field for investment chiefly be-
cause of its scattered condition and the
consequent large cost of reaching
consumers; and electricity has thus met
no competitor except the original oil
lamp and the tallow candle. A third
cause we believe to be largely the fact
that when electric lighting was first in
troduced by the Government, it was
offered to consumers on basis of rates,
which in many cases OF commercial
lighting and especially for night light
ing, considerably discounted the cost OF
oil for the same amount OF illumination.
The demand thus created soon reached
the limit OF that Government supply.
Today the Hawaiian Electric Company
possesses working capacity equal to
more than three times the present COM
bined incandescent output OF the Gov
eminent service together with our own.
We offer lighting at the Government
fat rates as follows:
Stores and Offices per 10 c. p. light per
month $1.00
Residences per Is C. p. light per
month-to lights 90cts.
Residences per Is c. p. light per
month-eXceSs OF D lights scots.
We do much better than this for our
consumers. We place lights in every
nook and corner OF your premises if you
wish, measure the light you use, and
! charge for actual consumption only.
You use light when and where you
need it and you don't forget to shut it off
when that need is satisfied. nor do you
! feel bound to keep the lights going from
dusk till dawn in order to secure the
value of a stipulated bill. We in turn
know exactly what We have delivered to
! YOU and can figure with certainty upon
| definite and rock bottom basis.
The cost OF Is c. p. light per hour is
| Ia to IL cents, varying with the
efficiency of the lamp.
The probable cost to you per month is
clearly indicated DY the following

dence lighting during June. Average

OF these prices and the positive advan-

obvious advantages at the lowest reason

ADMIRAL WALKER TALKS.
He Thinks the Hawaiian Republic is
Firmly Established.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3.-Rear-Ad-
miral Walker is In the city for the
purpose of laying before the Navy
Department his information acquired
In his recent trip to the Hawaiian
Islands. Speaking today Of the
affairs of the islands, he said:
Everything was qnite at Honolulu
when I left there in August, and
there was no prospect of an outbreak.
The new Government seems to be
firmly established and thoroughly
competent to take care OF itself IN
less there is interference from the
outside. Pearl River harbor. where
it is proposed to establish a United
States coaling station, IS beauty.
1t is one of the finest harbors IN the
world and is large enough to accom-
modate all the ships atioat. All 1t
wants ia the removal of little bar at
its entrance. This bar Is all sand
and can be easily taken out in
reasonable time and at small ex-
pense. 1t was thoroughly surveyed
while was there by Max Wood, one
of our officers"
ssHow about annexation
ooh, I can't say anything on that
subject, except that the sentiment
among the people for annexation to
the United States appears very
strong. By the way, Honolulu is a
most charming place and / had a
most delightful experience there.
When will / take charge of the
Naval Academy? Well, that depends
altogether on circumstances. L will
have to remain in Washington for
some time. for a conference with the
Secretaries of State and Navy In re-
gard to Hawaiian affairs They may
want more information than / have
given them in my report. How long
that will keep me don't know. but
the probabilities are 1 shall not go to
Annapolis much before the beginning
of the next term, or early in October"

To satisfy the demand for a
History of the Constitutional
Convention, the GAZETTE
COMPANY has prepared and
today issues a report of its
proceedings, which terminated
with the Proclamation of the
New Constitution on the
Fourth of July at the
Executive Building.
The pamphlet will also con-
tain a fine portrait of Presi-
dent Dole, and the New
Constitution in full, with an
index. The whole is enclosed
in a most artistic illuminated
cover, which of itself is worth
the price charged for the
pamphlet.
Early application is neces-
sary to secure copies of this
memento of the birth of the
Hawaiian Republic, as numer-
Gus orders are on file, and the
edition is limited.
