On the north side rises a peak. All

which the rock is vaulted along the
shore, and the top clad to the summit
with casuarinas. Valleys lied with
trees lead up 10 the sum NIT" OF the
view from the highest point of this
island, Mr.. COau says: around Us
was vast panorama of cones ridges,
spurs and valleys. Hills heaped. on
hill and spires bristling among
spires, the whole appeared as if a sea
of molten rocks, while raging, toss
ing and spOuting in angry pillows,
had been suddenly sOlidified by an
omnipotent power. 1t was mild
assem- bIage of hills and ridges, of
CULTS and chasms, of towers and pre-
cipices.'
A little distance south of Hivaoa is
Tahuta, or Christisna, like the rest of
the group, "a great heap Of scoria,
tufa, cinders, and basaltic Iavas, brist-
ling with ia ged points, traversed with
sbarpand angular ridges, and rent with
de- y al j avn ..hss'n5." The valley
VaItohu at ResoIuIon Bay on the
west, One-half mile deep, is shut In
by rugged precipices 1000 feet high,
and filed with breadfruit, cocoa palm,
vi, orange, guava, and other trees.
The southernmosLi island OF this group
is Fatuhiva, called also MaGdaIena.
The chief valley of this Island is
OmOa, one mile wide and three miles
deep, having five lateral branches one
half Il mile or more deep, all walled in
by towering precipices and filled with
magnificent vegetation. The inhablt-
ants of these islands are the same Poly
nesian race that is found in nearly all
the Pacific. So similar is their Ian
guage to that OF Hawaii that they
easily read Hawaiian Bibles and other
books. They are described as "physF
ically the most perfect of the human
species, many of them six feet high,
muscular, symmetrical, agile, grace
full, and lighter in complexion than
Tahitians." The American mission
aries remarked that they were more
noble in form and stature than the
Hawaiians, and the women, vile as
they were, more comely, though some
of the people are horribly tattooed.-

SUGAR CONSUMPTIONFO FOR 1895
Willett & Gray Give Interesting
Figures for Planters.

Willett q Gray's latest statistical
circular gives the following infor-
nation concerning the consump-
ton of sugar that will be read with
interest in this country:
"The figures given herewith show
the total consumption of sugar in the
United States to have been l, 145 IA
tons against 2,O12, ia tons in 1894,
1905, S62 in 1898 and 1,S53,37O tons in
1892 The decrease in 1895 is 81, $40
tons, or 8. II per cent. against an in
crease in 1894 of 106,S12 tons, or sos
per cent, and an increase in 1898 of
81, 492 tons, or 2.S3 per cent. The con-
sumption of 1895 consisted of 324, 506
tons of domestic cane sugar, 10000
tons of domestic beet sugar, 800 tons
of sOrgham sugar, 1900 tons maple
sugar, $4,000 tons of domestic manu-
featured mOlasses sugar, total of
377, 1906 tons of United States produc
ton and l, 460, 573 tons of foreign cane
and SO, 500 tons of foreign beet sugars
and 2S,O63 tons of foreign refined
sugars, together I,572 43S tons of for
eign production. The total melt
iDgs of our refiners in 1895 Were
1,73S, IA tons, 2S,037 were refined
abroad and 1872, 1854 tons were con-
sumed in the raw and plantation con-
dition. OF the 1,738, IA tons melted
by refiners, the American Sugar Re-
filming Co. manufactured 1880, 744
tons, or 1875 per cent, and the indie
pendent refiners 70S,000 tons, or
% per cent.
"The invisible stock of sugar is now
at minimum, while last year it was
so, 900 tons in excess of the preceding
year.
eff the invisible stocks are properly
adjusted the consum ption of 1895
would show but about $1,000 tons
smaller than 1894, but in the above
figures we have taken no account of
the invisible stocks.
"The American Sugar Refining
Co - production in 1895 decreased
lbs, 43S tons, and the Independent
refiners' production decreased 27,306
tons under the business of 1894. The
difference between raws and refined
in 1895 averaged 1888 against So cents
in 1894.

pleasing. He is possessed of a good
physique and an excellent voice. His
lecture on ''Oliver Cromwell or The
Power of Conscience" was a masterful
delineation and presentation of the
character of the great protector. 1t
defended Cromwell against the false
estimates and calumnies that have
been pnt upon him by men cotempo-
raneous with his times and assigned
him his true place in history as the
defender of the right of petition and
the right to worship God according to
the dictates of conscience. Mr.. Gal

than this he inspires to higher living

Although it is out of the season for
lectures, the full house that greeted
Rev. G. W. Gallagher Thursday even

lagher's ability was unknown when he
delivered his lecture here last winter
and consequently only few heard
him. They were however, unstinted
in their praise of his eloquence. The
friends he made then contributed
largely toward securing full house
at this time. Beside acting as moder-
ator of the conference, and preaching
the opening sermon, Mr.. Gallagher
gave an able address on The Minister

Oregon has recently held her
election which is the first gun of
thecampaign. Thelegislature will
be republican, which insures a re-
