GET A MACHINE.

Either the Government or
philanthropic local hui should at
once import Prof. Roentgen pho
tographic outfit and place the cat
hode or X ray on the market.
Contemplate few of the uses and
possibilities sufficient to the enter
prise and outlay.
Smelling committees and indi-
viduals or officials keen for infor-
nation would doubtless pay double
rates for the use of an outfit for
few hours. The impulse or incli-
nation just now would be to dis
cover facts rather than theories or
thoughts.
For one thing the X ray would
be directed at the Tax Office.
Everybody could learn just the
amount of the assessment on the
property Of everybody else. In
some instances doubtless inform
alton we'll worth the bother and
outlay would be forthcoming.
The X ray would be priceless
boon to the Custom House. 1t j:
more than likely that plan Of
photographing original packages
would be adopted. This would in
all probability head off the posi-.
bility of stories to the
effect that impossible containers
really contain opium that by some
legerdemain gets to the proper con
signees without the knowledge o.
the proper officials or the owners o.
the original packages. Perhaps,
however, the trial of the recently
discharged Japanese boy will
throw some common light on this
matter.
Searchers of ships, with noses
trained for opium, but often faulty,
could use the cathode ray perhaps
with profit and result by directing
it upon innocent looking and un'
suspicious parts of vessels. The
system of special secret storage
might come to an end.
The official who issues permits
for buildings could take around his
X ray and discover that what was
pledged in advance to be an iron
structure was really wood with
nothing but covering OF trifle
= heavy tin and about as proof from
fire as safety matches.
And there could be many other
fine applications of the new process
of seeing things now unseen. By
all means send for an outfit by the
first mail.

The utility of windmills on
the Islands has never been
ILLUSTRATED for the reason
that until the introduction of
the Aermotor by the HA-
WAIIAN HARDWARE
COMPANY there was not a
mill that would meet the re-
quirements of the purchaser or
that could be made to run in
localities where the wind is, at
times, so light that it is impos-
sible to make the old style
wooden wheel turn around.
The Aermotor is construct
ed of steel so light, yet strong,
that it moves with the slight
| est wind nor is it affected in
any manner in the severest
gale. 1t is an absolute fact
that the ordinary wooden mill
will remain motionless on ac-
count of the scarcity of wind
while at the same time the
lAermotor will be pumping
water.

Being positive in his convictions and
plain spoken in his sentiments, he was

partiaanship then displayed by the
dominant party. In 1863 he was elected

Tho people of Emmanuel Church are
looking forward TO the time when they
may have a new aud larger edifice in
which to worship. Tho church Is In n
prosperous condition and entirely out
Of debt. IL numbers So families among
Its members.
The church property is now valued at
about SlS, 600 Several years ago now
rectory was erected. IL represented
an expenditure Of about Sl0,000 and
within two years after tho building
was completed, the whole amount had
been cleared up The congregation
does not follow the plan Of assuming n
debt that ii takes years and years to
liquidate, but rather waits until it is
really able to go ahead.
This is evidenced in its course of
action concerning the desired new
structure. When the congregation is
ready to build IL will put up church
costing, say from go, 900 to $50, COO. II

building fund. A collection on Easter
