ACRUISE VENTURE.

A novel voyage was begun on
the fifteenth instant when the ..
S. torpedo boat Cushing left the
Washington navy yard for Key
West, Florida, under orders to
avoid as much as possible max
ing any part of the trip on the
open waters Of the Atlantic, and
to travel at such speed as may
enable the little craft to return
to Newport, r. l., within thirty
days.
The object of the cruise is to
demonstrate the feasibility of
sailing from one end Of the Ats
lantic seaboard to the other
without exposure to danger from
hostile fleets or inclement wea-
Their. Thanks to the line of sandy
islets which stretch like a sell
wedge all along our Eastern sea-
board, it is possible for a vessel
of light draught, propelled by
steam, to make the entire journey
almost without once venturine
into the otfing.
"Albemarle"Cushing, in whose
honor the torpedo boat is named
carried his little craft from New
York to Plymouth harbor, Who'll
ly by inland canals and natura
waterways; so that he was en-
abled to destroy the mighty ran
Albemarle. Twenty years after
wards, Nathaniel H. Bishop indi
Gated the possibilities of interna
navigation for the lightest-
draught crafts by padding hi
canoe {, 900 miles, from Quebe
to Florida, without Drawing NOR
than once or twice, and then 70
a brief tempestuous hour, TIL
dangers of the Atlantic. OWN,
to the supineness of our govern
ment, England has been permit
ted to line our Atlantic seaboar
with a chain of mighty f%ortresses
from Halifax to Santa Lucia; an
our only defence lies in the pro
vidential system of sounds
bounded by sandy islets, benin
which our torpedo fleets an
light-draught despatch boat
may maintain communicate
with our great seaports.
AS Hon. Don M. Dickinso
r pertinently pointed out la
? week, England has no object
building up those fortress
t save as a menace to the Unite
f States. Some day we may hay
Occasion for d Jackson in tt
White House to demand that the
be dismantled; and when tt
jackson arrives and makes tn
S demand, it will be needed. Mea
while it is well to be on qua.
y against the enemy who comes
the night, or in the day of O
sore distress.

THE laboring men of this G

The laboring men of this coun-
try will think long before vot-
ing for a financial system that
would increase the price of
everything they have to buy one
hundred per cent without doubl-
ing their wages. "The laborer
is worthy of his hire" and he is
entitled to receive his hire in a
good dollar. That is exactly
what the free and unlimited
coinage advocates are seeking to
prevent.

OF China sent to the Six Companies

NO LONGER IN EXISTENCE.
Dissolution of the Famous Chinese
Six Companies of California.

The latest talk in Chinatown at
the present time is concerning the
split in the powerful six Compa-
nies," which, until a few days ago,
had for its membership every Chi
naman in the United States who
thinks anything of his native coun-
try. Now four of the companies
which were in the organization
have stepped down and out, and
hereafter there will be two organ
izations. Chinatown in this CITY
has been billed with copies of a
proclamation announcing the Sc
cesslon of four of the companies
from the Six Companies. The
proclamation appeals to all adher-
ents of the seceders to stand to-
gether and boycott the other COM
panies. The local Cinnamon are
said to be divided. Some will stand
by the old organization and others
will unite with the new.
Ihe story comes from San Fran
cisco that the disruption is due to
a recent murder in the Chinese
quarter OF that city. Chinaman
Tong Wei was murdered and the
police arrested Moe Tai for the
crime. The prisoner, it is alleged,
was not the murderer. The Chi
nese merchants got together and
members of the company to which
Moe Tai belonged said he was in
nocent, and urged that the wit
nesses to this fact be sent to the
trial. For some reason the mer-
chants did not take any steps to
save Moe Tai. Things became so
interesting that the Ming Yunp
Shue Hing, Hop Wah and Kong
Chow companies withdrew from
the Six Companies and organized
what is now known as the See Yum
Company. The See Yup Company
will spend money and time and
bring much powerful pressure to

MONGOOSE IN HAWAII.
They Have Proven a Great Pest
Here-Destrovs Game.

Some five or six years ago the
mongoose was imported into the
islands for the purpose of extermi-
mating rats in the cane fields. Va
rious methods were adopted to rid
the fields of the vermin, but all
signally failed until the little ami
mails were brought from Jamaica.
They are repeating in Hawaii what
was done by them in the island of
Jamaica. After destroying rats in
the cane fields the mongoose have
attacked birds and fowls, material
ly decreasing their number by eat
ing eggs and the young. As con-
sequence there are but few quail
and turkey on the islands. Es-
pecially is this noticeable on Ha-
waii, in the vicinity of the volcano,
where previous to the introduction
of the mongoose species of this
game were plentiful. The country
in that locality is simply alive
with the pests, for they have proven
to be that. They attack as we'll
young fowl and sucking pigs, and
have been known to attempt to
carry off grown animals, after first
causing their death by strangula-
ton. AS the mongoose finds the
rats, toads and crabs disappearing
it attacks sitting fowls and carries
off their eggs, and kills young pigs,
kids, lambs, calves, pups, kittens,
poultry and game birds, destroys
fruits and vegetables, and is sus-
pected of sucking sugar cane, eats
meat and salt provisions, and
catches fish.

THE DECEMBER PARADISE" ."
Current Number Ends Eighth Vol.
ume of the Magazine.

The current number of The
Paradise of the Pacific ends the
eighth volume. 1t is a good num-
Der. The literary features are:
A story on West Maui, by Charles
Ewart; a sketch of the life of Will
lam e. Wilder, with an excellent
portrait OF that gentleman; a
descriptive article on the volcano,
by leigh Irvine, the well known
newspaper writer, and the conclu-
sion of Thomas G. Thrum's "Com-
mercial Development in Hawaii"
The half-tone pictures show up
sharp and clear, and the type mat
ter is near perfection. Views of
Kilauea accompany Mr.. Irvine's
article on the volcano. The other
pictures illustrate japanese quar-
ters on a plantation, and the asy-
lum for insane in Honolulu. Copies

Nothing in the Work Offensive
to Cleveland Administration.
SECRETARY HERBERT LIKES 1T
No Disposition to Persecute the Lieu
tenant-Unnecessary Excitement
Aroused over Alleged Suppression
of the Publication-The Author.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Is. "A great
deal of unnecessary excitement has
been aroused over the alleged sup
preston of the book on Hawaii, writ
ten by Lieutenant Lucien Young Of
the navy. As matter of fact, there
is no telling just what Secretary Her
bert has done, as he refuses to say
word about But the friends OF
Lieutenant You g who have seen the
manuscript and pictures as prepared
for publication say positively that the
sensation mOngers are making "a
mountain out of molehill. There is
nothing in the book which could be
construed as offensive, or which was
intended so to be. The Lieutenant's
relations with the Administration are
not, and have not been, strained. The
submission of the manuscript to the
Secretary of the Navy was a volun-
tary act on his part, and the general
suppo-itiOn is that had he not once
made himself unduly conspicuous in
connection with the Hawaiian affair
there would not have been raised the
slightest objection to publishing his
book low or at any time. Under the
circumstances it was deemed in ques-
tionable taste for him to bring him
a. in alat
Hawaii, as it would simply cause
revampiug of subjects which would be
better for him to let slumber. The
Secretary likes Young, who has the
Southern impulsiveness of nature
which sometimes causes the heart to
run away with the head; and if there
were any place where a brave man
could make record by taking his life
in his hand and tempting fate against
great odds, the Lieutenant would be
given the chance 10 make himself
famous.
1t Is pretty well understood that
Mr.. Herbert is interested in Young'-
book also, which he regards as most
entertainingly written. There has
certainly been no disposition on the
part OF the Secretary, or of any one
else connected with the Administra
ton, to persecute the lieutenant. On
the contrary, the only restraint, even
moral, which appears to have been
applied, narrows down to this: that
Young voluntarily submitted his book
to his chief with the understanding
that, after what had already happen
ed, it would be the part of discretion
as well as courtesy to receive the Sec
retary's approval before putting his
work forth, and that the Secretary has
not yet given the desired assurance
The hubbub which has been raised
over the matter is not likely to move
Mr.. Herbert to more accommodating
frame of mind. His desire that
Young's Fourth of July performance
at Honolulu, and his subsequent es-
cape from discipline on account of his
record for personal galIantry, should
be given chance TO blow over before
the lieutenant should be projected
against Hawaiian background again,
would have come nearer fulfilment if
a little longer interval had been per-
mitted to elapse between the two pub.
lie appearances.

THE USEFUL BANANA.
Its Leaves and Pulp Applied to
Many Purposes.

In the West Indies the dried leaves
and prepared portions OF the stem are
used as packing materials. fresu
leaves are used to shade young coffee
or cacao seedlings in nursery beusi
and to cover cacao beans during Ter,
mentatIon. The young unopened
leaves are so smooth and soft that
thew are used as dressing" for blls-
ters. In India the dried stalk OF the
pIantain leaf is used as a rough kind
of twine, and the larger parts are
made into small boxes for holding
snuff, drugs, etc
In the Malay Peninsula the ash OF
the leaf and leaf-stalk is used instead
of soap or fuller's earth in washing
clothes, and a solution of the ash Is
often used as a salt in cooking. In
the Dutch Indies the skin OF the plan
tain is used for blackeuing shoes. The
Juice which flows from all cut parts OF
the banana is rich in tannin, and of so
black a nature that it may be used as
an iudelibIe marking ink. In Java
the leaves of the "waX banana" are
covered on the under side with white
powder, which yields valuable kinds
of bananas. The most valuable wax,
clear, hard and whitish, forming an
important article of trade. The ashes
of the leaves, stem and fruit rind are
employed in Bengal in many dyeing
processes. In Siam cigarette wrap
per is made from the leaves.
Fibre is got from the stems Of many
is the "Manila hemp" of commerce,
which holds the chief place for max
ing white ropes and cOrdage Old
ropes made of it form an excellent
paper making material, much used in
the United States for stout packing
papers. The Manila hemp Industry
is large one. About $4,000 tons of
fibre, valued at e3,000,000, are annu-
ally exported from the Philippine
islands. The Manila hemp plant is
grown exclusively in the southeastern
part of the Philippines, and all at
tempts to grow it elsewhere have
failed. Many articles are made from
Manila hemp-mats, cords, hats, lace
handkerchiefs of the finest texture,
plated work and various qualities of
paper At Wohlau, in Switzerland,
an industry has been started for max
ing lace and materials for ladies' hats
from it. By a simple process it il
made into straw exactly resembling
the finest wheat straw for plating.

OF INTEREST TO MANAGERS
OF PLANTATIONS.

A Model Plant is not complete without
Electric Power, thus dispensing with
small engines.
Why not generate your power from one
CENTRAL Station? One generator can
furnish power to your Pumps, Centri-
fugals, Elevators, PIows, Railways and
HOists: also furnish light and power for
a radius Of from Is to 70 miles.
Electric Power being used saves the
labor of hauling coal in your field, also
water, and does away with high-priced
engineers, and only have one engine to
look after in your mill.
Where water power is available it costs
nothing to generate Electric Power.
The HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY
is now ready to furnish Electric Plants
and Generators of all descriptions at short
notice, and also has on hand a large
stock of Wire, Chandeliers and all Elec-
trical Goods.
All orders will be given prompt atten-
tiOn, and estimates furnished for Lighting
and Power Plants: also attention is given
to House and Marine Wiring.
