A Modern Typewriter.

Nowadays we demand modern
things. Our great-grandfathers
used quill pens.' They were the best
writing implements then. Few
writer's use them now. They are
out-of-date.
To-day a Typewriter is the most
important adjunct in an office equip
ment. There is mo question about it..
They save time, do the work of
several people.
The Peerless Typewriter
stands out prominently as a modern,
up-to-date machine. 1t combines all
the good points Of any machine on
the market, while it has none of the
defects found in other makes.

that there would be determination

prospects for an alliance as excellent.
All of the old friends are still faithful

installation took place last night in
the lodge room, Masonic Temple. The
new officers were installed by Past
Master John \. Hassinger, assisted by
Past Master Andrew Brown. The re-
tiring master, DR.. NJ. f. Grossman,
was presented with a handsome Ma
sonic jewel. The presentation speech
was made by Past Master Hassinger.
Mr.. Grossman responded in a feeling
manner.
After the installation was over the
members of the lodge and their invit-
ed guests sat down to enjoy a banquet.
The banquet hall was most artistical-
ly decorated with flags and evergreens
and the pleasant sight was increased
by electric effects. The tables were
delightfully."- decorated with cut flow
ers. The repast was prepared and
served under the personal direction of
Manager Krouse of the Arlington
hotel. He excelled any previous eff
forts in this line.
Past Master Hassinger was named as
toastmaster. This selection was re-
ceived with applause. He started by
proposing the following toast:
"The NJ. w. Grand Lodge of Cali
fornia."
Hawaiian No. 21, born unto her forty
and four years ago, renews its pledge
of filial obedience and unchanging
love.
Past master w. F. Allen responded
as follows:
Mr.. Chairman and Brother Masons:
The Grand Lodge of California holds
a most unique position in the history
of Masonry. In 1850 it was the only
Grand Lodge west of the Missouri
river, some two thousand miles from
any other Grand Lodge. Its member
ship was made from Masons hailing
from almost every state in the Union
and it profited by the experience IF
able Masons from the East and South,
so our Mother Lodge, became at once
almost a model Grand Lodge, carried
on most ably and strictly under the
best Interpretation of Masonic law.
The decisions of it's committees on
Jurisprudence have been quoted all
over the United States, and the Grand
Lodge of California has very high
reputation among Masons, which it
gained in the first years of its exist
ence, and has maintained and added
to ever since. Our lodge, as one of its
oldest children (21 out of a total now
of IS4) has great deal to be grateful
for, as our Mother Lodge, after a good
deal of discussion, granted on the 18th
day of January 1852 a dispensation to
thirteen Master Masons, authorizing
them to open a lodge of Masons in
Honolulu, and on the 5th day of May,
1852, formally chartered Hawaiian
Lodge No, 21, with eleven charter
members of American and English
birth.
In granting this charter she did
what was never done before or since
by any American Grand Lodge. grant
ed a charter TO lodge under Ameri-
can jurisdiction off the Continent.

Some three or four months ago
there was sent to The Star for publi-

come from the Cuban Revolutionary

Cuba and assist the patriots there in
their struggle for liberty. The ad-
vertisement was printed and caused
many inquiries to be sent abroad.

With respect to the official report
of Minister Cooper, President Dole

'What are your impressions from
Minister Cooper's report?" was asked.
"My impressions from Minister
Cooper's experiences in the States, the

say nothing at present. We will furn-
ish to the press and people as rapidly
as possible all information upon this
important topic, but we have not de-
cided what in the report may yet be

"As to the Hawaiian plank in the

it is any state secret that it was drawn
by our friend Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge. All of the Senators, l might
say, and public men take it for grant
ed that the Senate resolution estab-
lished an American protectorate over
Hawaii. Senator Morgan is as strong
an anneXationist as ever. These two,
and Senators Hale, Edmunds and 9TH
er. including Mark Hanna, were at
our Washington dinner. This was ar
ranged by our friend Mr. Foster. 1t
was just such an affair as one could
wish for the accomplishment of work

Word has been received here of the death
of Thomas Clay Hannum. who was one of
the brightest of the corps of Washingto
newspaper correspondents for number of
years. He was censumptive, and during
the past year or so his health was such as
to make his death Q probability at any
time. For some months he had been at the
home of his motherJat Conshohocken, Pa,
where his death occurred this morning
Tom Hannum was thirty-six years old
and native of Pennsylvania. He was on

time until some time in 1893 he was in
active work here. HIS health being such
that he was compelled to seek change of
Climate, he went to Corpus Christi, Texas,
as special agent of the Treasury Depart

HARVEYIZED STEEL.
Secretary Herbert to Explain in Re-
gard to the Contracts for 1t.

Secretary Herbert to Explain in Re-
gard to the Contracts for 1t.
Secretary Herbert will appear before the
Senate committee on naval affairs on Sat
urday next, in obedience to the summons
of the committee, to give what information
he may have in his possession relative to
the contracts made by the Navy Depart
ment for the use of Harveyized steel in
armor for naval vessels.
The motive for the investigation is fur
nished in a statement which Senator Chand-
Ter has made. calling attention to the
charges affecting the conduct of Command
er William NJ. Folger in connection with
the Harvey patent while he was chief of
the ordnance bureau and since he retired
from that position. 1t Is alleged that while
holding that office he induced the expedit-
ing of the Harvey patent in the patent Of
flee and the adoption of the Harvey process
in the manufacture of armor by reason of
understanding that he should be en-
ployed by the Harvey company and have
an interest in it. 1t is also set forth that
after the first contract had been made
with the company and after the second
had been arranged for Commander Folger
resigned his office, and, while continuing to
be an officer in the navy, accepted employ
ment with the Harvey company and went
abroad to negotiate with foreign govern
mentS for the use of the process.
1t is also conterded that while in other
cases contracting companies have been re-
quired to pay all royalties to patentees Of
pr rocesses necessary to be used the con-
tract made with the Carnegie Steel Com
pany set apart a fund of two cents per
pound. which was to be paid by the gov
ernment in addition to the contract price
to contest the legality of the patents to the
process of patenting nickel steel to be used
In executing these contracts.
1t is further said that while the prices
paid by this government to the Carnegie
and Bethlehem companies under the con-
tracts made by Secretaries Whitney and
Tracy amounted to from $500 to $3.50 per
ton for armor, the Bethlehem company has
taken the contract to furnish the armor to
the Russian government at $500 per ton.

DISTRICT WATER SUPPLY.

Board of Experts Working on Its
Report on the Lydecker Tunnel.
The board of expert engineers considering
the subject of the District water supply
has been in session early and late at the
War Department every day since Monday.
The members are now engaged in the
preparation of their report, and fully ex-
pect to have it ready for submission 10
Gen. Craighill, chief of engineers, by Sat
urday, and possibly tomorrow afternoon
This report will be of the greatest inter-
est to the people of the District of Colum-
bia, inaSmuch as the board was organized
to determine the best and most economical
method of increasing the water supply of
the city, as well as to determine the uues-
tion of the utility of the long-abandoned
Lydecker tunnel conduit in bringing about
that much-desired result.
The beard will recommend either the
completion of the tunnel, or if that is re-
garded as inexpedient, it will recommend
some other plan for increasing the water
supply, either by new conduit from the
distributing reservoir to the Howard Uni
verSity reservoir, Or some other method
the nature of which has not been disclosed.
There will be no delay in laying the matter
before Congress, inasmuch as Gen. Craig
hill has virtually decided in advance to be
guided almost entirely in his recommends
tion by the report of the board.
