This gives to him the highest position
in Masonry here among the brethren
who work under dispensation of the
Grand Lodge of Scotland, under which
Pacific Lodge No. S22 was erected.
Just now this is the only lodge here
working under the laws of the Scottish
Masons, but it is a question of but a
short time when two other lodges will
be organized under this dispensation,
and Minister Cooper, as District Grand
Master Depute, has the power to erect
them. There is no Grand Lodge here,
nor has he the power to erect one; the
Pacific Lodge is subordinate to the
Grand Lodge in Scotland, and will re-

On the left of the entrance and form

fitted up with the same style of furni-
ture as will be found in a reception

room in the tower to the right of the

This will be under a stairway begin

degree, of which, by the way, there are
but two residing in Honolulu: Gideon
West and II. II. Williams.
Minister Cooper, however, has reach
ed the S2d rung in the ladder, and 1t is
barely possible that while he is abroad
on his tour he may take the last or
33d degree.
He is the most active worker among
the craft, and it astonishes some OF the
younger men how a man with so many
busy days in his Government life can
do all that he has done and is doing
for the good of the order in Hawaii.
Until his advent in the country, Ma
sonry dragged along as many other
things. slowly; but he seems to have
infused new blood into the order. and

two others, is the result.

a dispensation granted by the Grand
Lodge of France.
Minister Cooper was passed and
raised a Mason in the United States,
and was Master of his lodge there. On
| taking up his residence in Honolulu
he became a member of Hawaiian
| Lodge No 21. When the membership
of the lodge grew and the necessity
for another was evident, Minister
Cooper arranged through r. Lee-Bryce
of Queensland for dispensation from
| the Grand Lodge of Scotland. Mr..
Bryce's position in the order gave him
power to erect lodges, and Pacific
Lodge No. 822 is the result. On Aug
ust /, 1895, charter was issued by
the Grand Lodge of Scotland, and since
then the lodge has grown rapidly, hav-
ing now about fifty members. Some of
them were at one time members of
other Honolulu lodges, but a majority
are entirely new in Masonry.
This is Minister Cooper's jubilee
year in Masonry. Besides the position
mentioned as having DSSH recently
given him, he is r. w. Master of Pa

The stable of W. G. Irwin now in
course of construction on his Waikiki
property will be the handsomest pri-
vate building in the vicinity of Homo
lulu with perhaps two exceptions.
Mr.. Irwin is one of Honolulu's citi-
zens who believes that man should be
merciful to his beast, but when the
new stable is completed it will take the
horses from turning up their noses at
Mr.. Irwin's residence on the next lot.
The horses will have the best of it until
the residence which Mr.. Irwin contem-
plates building is erected.
The plans for the stable were drawn
by Messrs. Ripley and Dickey and are
from the Moorish style of architecture,
different from anything on the islands.
The work is being done entirely by
days work and is under the personal
supervision of Mr.. Ripley The build
lot, convenient enough to the road to
be visible to people driving by Trees
which formerly stood on the lot have
been cut down so as to make a clear
roadway, and at the same time give an
unobstructed view.
The building will have a 13O-foot
frontage and depth of more than
fifty feet, and will be two stories in
height. The entrance will be through
a large arch way between the semi
circular columns. On the left of the
entrance is the carriage repository,
the dimensions of which are 32x55 feet.
This is supplied with the latest ap-
pliances by which carriages are han
died while indoors. Back of this is
the room where the carriages are to
pass through the washing process.
This room is 1SX27 and fitted with
enameled iron sponge racks and has
slat flooring and a number of water
taps, and every convenience and ia
cility for keeping the carriages clean
The heavy slat flooring is directly over
and in close proximity to the sandy
soil, and all the waste water will run
off there instead of collecting. An ad-

riage room and occupy a space be-
tween it and the stable. The dimen-
sions of this room are 16X16. with
everything necessary to the proper
care of harness. The most modern de-
vices for the holding and protecting of
harness have place in Mr.. irwin 5 sta
bic. There's the iron rack on which
harness saddles will rest, and another
appliance for holding the rest of the
harness. Two other and different iron
fixtures will hold the gentlemen's and
ladies' riding saddles. The hooks for
headstalls and pieces of harness sep
arate from the sets are covered with
rubber tubing to protect the harness
from injury. Here also are handsome
iron racks for holding sponges. An
other room SKIP is for the finer sets
of harness.
The stable proper is at the right of
the main archway, and has 'all the
comforts of home" The dimensions
of the stable are 32x42 feet, with a
height of 20 feet from floor to apex.
The ceiling is finished in natural wood,
oiled and vanished. 1t contains five
open and five box stalls, the former
separated with wrought iron lattice
work. Each stall is 1Ox11 feet and is
furnished with enamelled iron hay
racks and grain boxes. All around this
stable room will be a corridor, so that
the horses may be fed without the
stablemen going into the stalls. Feed
is obtained from the feed room on the
upper floor by means of chute.
Beyond the stable is a room 16x32,
with slat floor similar to the one on
the opposite side, which will be used
as place for washing and grooming
horses. Like the other departments,
this room is fitted with everything
necessary to keeping the horses in a
condition approaching the spick end
span.
The elevator in the left of the build
ing and in the main carriage house
will be used to hoist carriages, when
not wanted, from this room to the one
on the upper floor. The grain rooms
are thoroughly rat proof, being finished
entirely on the interior with sheet iron.
This room is 22x44 feet. Opposite this
room, and adjoining the upper carri-
age house, is a room 12x12 feet to be
used by the coachman as a bed room
This is fitted with the same convent
ences one would expect to find in
fashionable residence. The entire
building will be made perfectly mos
quito proof
While the building is of wood this
material is so thoroughly covered that
it cannot be noticed. 1t is solidly
sheathed with wood and covered with
P. & B. sheathing paper and narrow
strips of lathing nailed perpendicularly
over this paper. Laths are then nailed
across and cement, colored with a yell
low preparation is put over all, the
only wood work not so covered is al
strip of moulding about two inches
wide running around the door, this will
be painted and sanded so as to be inn
pregnable to bOrers.

When the building is finished with
its yellow tinted cement and Spanish
steel tiles, the effect on one will be
startling because this most beautiful
style of architecture is entirely new
to this country That it will be an
ornament to Waikiki will pass without
a question. The estimated cost of the
building, and this includes the solid
masonry and concrete foundation will
be $4,000

style of architecture and will be the

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, OF Washington,
New Jersey, the great Organ and Piano

has worked his way up 90 as to cell so
far, over 100000 of Beatty's Organs and
Pianos since 1870. Nothing seems to dis
hearten him; obstacles laid in his way,
that would have wrecked an ordinary
man forever, he turns to an advertise
ment and comes out of it brighter than
ever, He was mayor of Washington,
New Jersey, from 1879 to 1883, five terms,
and recently declined denomination for
the sixth term. His instruments, as is
well known, are very popular and are to
be found in all pats of the world. We
are informed that during the next ten
years he intends to sell 100000 more of
his make; that means business of S2O.-

each. 1t is already the largest business
of the kind in exitence. Write or call
