products. A book will be kept in
which women will be asked to write
their opinions of the food served to
them. The redwood industries of
California have com bined to build a
redwood cottage in which an exhibit
will be made. There will be redwood
shingles and burl. and experiments
will be made to demonstrate the
adaptability of that wood for the man
ufacture of lead pencils. At present
all the lead pencil manufacturers of
Germany use Spanish cedar. and it IS
said the supply is becoming exhausted.
The redwood dealers say that their
wood is superior in every way to the
Spanish cedar, and peculiarly adapted
for lead pencils on account of its even
grain.
Then there will be department for
the promotion of trade. The head
quarters will be fitted up like a model
American business office. 1t is fact
that German business offices are, as a
rule. wretchedly equipped, the usual
furniture being a table and few
chairs, and it is with the idea of in
PRODUCING for general use the many
labor saving devices and conveniences
common in this country that the trade
department was primarily created.
The office will be in charge of Mr. Won
Johannsen. and from it will be issued
100, 900 catalogues, which will be
veritable reference books of American
trade. Mr.. Won Johannsen thinks it
is not necessary to state that most OF
the business men of California who
have become identified with the ven
ture are actuated only by desire for
the greater glory and advertisement OF
the Pacific Coast.
AS the exposition is not competitive,
but purely of commercial character,
no prizes will be given. A thoroughly
equipped fire department and large
guard from the Naval Battalion of Cal
ifornia will protect the building and
maintain order.

BLOW ACROSS THE ATLANTIC.

The first authentic news of the
American fishing schooner Joseph P.
johnson. Captain George Brier, sup
posed to have been lost during the terri
BILE gales of February, reached here
last night in a batch of letters from the
Western Islands, says Providence
town dispatch i'll the Boston Herald.
February 4 she was at anchor ON the
fishing banks, and a month later. after
all hopes of her had been abandoned,
she limped into tho port of Fayal,
1900 miles from home, i'll badly
crippled condition. Captain Briefs
letter says:
Instead of decreasing, as we hoped,
the cyclone kept increasing and the
seas that were sweeping over and
around us were terrible to look at.
Our stout hawser held bravely until
the morning of the 9th, when it
snapped asunder and away we went at
the mercy of the gale. Early ON the
morning of the 18th a nasty comber
came sweeping toward us and struck
the much-abused craft quartering,
until the mass lay fiat ON the water.
The scene at that moment was almost
indesoribable-no one can do it Justice.
As the stricken vessel lay there on her
broadside, with every sea making
clean sweep over her, the chances for
our lives looked slim. At last she was
up again, but in terrible shape. All were
there but one, Manuel Souza Baroas, who
had been swept away, and was never
seen again. The bulwarks on the lee
side were gone, the decks swept of
everything, the figure head smashed
and forstaysail blown to ribbons. The
sea was making plaything of us. All
we could do was to hang on, keep her
head to the gale and trust to God to do
the rest. The gale lasted for fourteen
days and we drifted before it. All
we had to drink was water made by
melting ice taken from the fish pens in
our hold, and our provisions were all
soaked. After the gale moderated and
found out our position and condition
l decided that the best thing I could
do was to make for the Western Islands.
We spoke French bark and obtained
two barrels of crackers, which were
our principal article of diet for the
succeeding twelve days before we
reached this port. The vessel is badly
strained and will have to be recalked
and reftted. We are in hopes to get
away somewhere about the LIST of April
and reach home some time during the
month";

TO SAVE THE FORESTS.
SUBJECT IN wHicu ruE PLANTERS
EviscE DEEr .isrEREsr.
Mr.. Msrsden's Paper - Remarks by
Members Government The
Association AdJourns.

The Hawaiian Planters Associa-
tion, as the Planters Labor and
Supply Company will in future be
called, continued its session in the
afternoon OF Tuesday. +. M.
Swanzy, the new president, unan-
imously elected by the Board Of
Trustees, occupied the chair.
The first paper OF the afternoon
was one on forestry by ]. Marsden,
Commissioner Of Agriculture. The
dissertation was very able and was
applaudei at the conclusion of
the reading. Mr.. Marsden brought
out at some length a subject
touched upon at the meeting
of 1904: Forests on the Island of
Hawaii. Unless something were
done 10 check the destruction of
forests, it surely would not be lor g
before there would be none on that
island to bother. Cattle turned at
large in the forests of Hawaii were
doing great damage to trees; sugar
and coffee estates were encroaching
upon the forests Of mauka lands.
The Commissioner spoke earnestly
upon his chosen subject and hoped
the association would take due
consideration of it.
Mr.. Schaefer, President Swanzy
and other gentlemen made remarks
upon the subject. Mr.. Schaefer as
sured the meeting that the Govern
ment was interesting itself in the
matter Of the destruction of forests,
and some steps tending to the pre-
servation of them would likely be
taken in the near future. Dr. Max
we'll said that during his recent
visit to Hawaii he was forcibly
struck with the amount of timber
lying upon the ground in certain
localities where forests were being
destroyed to make way for some
thing. Mr.. Giffard thought for
estry committee in each district
where there is any considerable
amount of timber would greatly
facilitate the object sought. Com
mittees were appointed to report at
next meeting.
AT the conclusion Of these re-
marks DR.. Maxwell presented a
final paper, on the subject of fer
mentation. The points covered
were remarked upon by the speaker
and by Chemist J. 7. Crawley.
This finishing up business of the
session the Association adjourned
to meet again next October or
November.
