FUTURE OF SAMOA.
To Settle the German Claims and Buy
Them Out.

LONDON, Oct. %. In an interview
with DR. Lempriere, agent of the late
Mr.. Sherwood, owner of PagO PagO,
the largest harbOr of Samoa and the
only one secure from cyclonic dis
turbances, be said: "There have been
constant communications between the
British, German and American gov
ernments regarding the future OF
Samoa. The present situation Is an
impossible one, and can only result in
the absolute destruction of trade and
the gradual extinction of the natives.
According to last accounts trade Is at
a standstill and the natives are In
condition of turbulence. New Zeal
and being the nearest British posses
sion and largely interested in the de
velOpment OF Polynesian trade, is the
proper quarter from which the que7-
ton can best be pressed on the
attention of the imperial gov
ernment. / have the greatest con-
tideuce in Mr.. Ward, the surveyor
of that colony, laying before his
government some scheme having in
view the alteration of the present cou
dition of affairs. The Psc tic cable,
having been decided on and the money
guaranteed, is a matter OF vital I'M

That America and Great Britain are

the cholera epidemic a fee was
charged.
An application from Mrs. 5. J.
Hutchinson to go to Molokai to re-
side was denied by the Board. An
other from Mrs. Hutchinson to the
effect that she be allowed to visit
the place was placed on file for fu-
ture consideration.
Health Inspector Reynolds re-
ported that passengers for the other
islands had evaded having their
baggage fumigated. He wanted to
know if it was necessary to keep up
the fumigating operations. 1t was
voted that all restrictions on travel
be removed. This means no more
permits for passengers and no fumi-
cation. In other words, the port is
as it was before the beginning of
the cholera epidemic.
Several claims for damages
through the regulations of the
Board of Health were denied.
DIR. Emerson reported for the
committee appointed to look into
the matter of houses overhanglng
the banks on Nuuanu stream. 1t
was decided that these houses be
allowed to be tenanted provided
the pipes in the parts overhanging
the river be cut off, the drains be
made to flow into cesspools and that
proper water closets be built.
The following letter was received
from Medical Inspector Wayson:
By your directions L have exam
ined the premises now being filled in
10y the dredger and l find the material
used is mostly or wholly made up OF
black sand with scatte ring sea shells.
The sand is clean and OdOrless and |
see no reason why any disease should
arise from the material now used; nor
any discomfort given the inhabitants
around the place. At the present
time it is impossible to put the houses
around the place in good sanitary con
dition, due to the fact that they are
built over mud flats ami stagnant
pools of water, where cesspools and
vaults cannot be made deep enough to
be of any use. When the place is pro-
perly filled in the houses C N be put in
fairly good sanitary condition.

yesterday, "and when you see them
around the fire house on King street
watching the antics of the two little
monks or sitting in the shade OF the
veranda opposite the house on Union
street, you may depend upon it they
are simply taking breathing spell.
A fireman's life is not all beer and
skittles' here, even if we don't have
many fires" And then Chief Hunt
pushed a cracker box toward the AD-
vERTISER man and invited him to
make himself comfortable while he
put the men through a he'd drill. Ev-
cry mothers son of the "fire extin-
guishers" was ordered to re ire, and
the lot scrambled upstairs just the
same as if they wanted nap
real bad and were glad Of the chance
to get it. AS soon as they were dis
robed and under the covers and the
mosquito nets pulled down and tucked
around them the chief Inspected the
dormitOry and found the men playing
pOssum just as naturally "a boy who
has come in late and wants to let his
mother think he has been asleep for
hours and hours.
Then the chief gave the alarm aud
like bees that have been disturbed the
men were Oh the floor and getting iu'

toward the engine aud cart, aud the
automatic harness dropped over Their
backs. A if charged with electricity
the men moved toward the uicki@-
plated sliding poles and went down
through the openings in the floor al
most on top of each other aud then
took their places on the cart; the
driver was in mis- seat on the engine,
aud the doors flew open for him to
drive the team out. From the time
the gong st uck until the doors were
opened just eighteen seconds elapsed.
As soon as the Chief got control of
his breath he asked the reporter to
have one with him, meaning drill,
but the invitation was declined.

HOUSES OF EVEN TEMPERATURE
Novel Habitations Designed by In-
genious French Architect.

mover DeSiS ~ All Ah-
genious French Architect.
A house at Chamounix, built on what
must assuredly be termed the most
modern principles of construction, is
claimed to possess, as its most remark
able feature, a constant temperature,
in addition to its strength, durability,
comfort and beauty. The builder, Nj.
Caron, says the Philadelphia Ledger,
first put up Il frame of steel water tub
ing, allowing continuous circulation to
stream of water, and around this
frame the house was put up, the pecul-
iaritv being that all floors and ceilings
are crossed and recrossed by the water
pipes--the water, after passing through
the horizontal tubes first, that is, un-
der the floors and ceilings, passes
through the vertical tubes until all
have been similarly treated. In sum-
mer spring water, fresh as is only the
water Of the snow-capped Alps, clrcu-
lates under pressure through the net
work of tubes, cools off the walls, and,
having run it's course, flows off consid-
erably warmer than when it entered.
But in it's course it has absorbed much
heat, which it carries away. During
the long and severe winter the water,
entering through the basement, is first
heated to nearly one hundred degrees
and then forced through the tubing.
Of course, much of the heat is left all
over the house, and at the outlet the
temperature of the water is about forty
degrees, and the speed of the circula
ton of the water can be regulated SC
as to allow the fixing of certain tenn
perature for the house, which is equa,
throughout. The house measures about
six thousand cubic yards and weigh!
one hundred and twenty tons.

And where thou art, o love,
may not go.
Hook on land and sea;
deem all things as grey;
Life holds no light for me-
Thou art away.
Above, the dull. dark cloud;
Below, leaden tide;
weave heavy shroud,
For hope hath died,
Behold. the sleeping tide
Stirs meath a sudden wind;
The clouds are scattered wide,
And show, behind
The blue of heaven: the earth
Is gladdened by the sun;
Now JOY hath sudden birth,
New hopes are won.
And l, too, can rejoice
My heart leaps with the tide;
Isee thee, hear thy voice;
