RESOLUTIONS BY THE Bar THIRTY LIVING ROOMS IMPRESSED BY NAQAQ QGNS SUCCESS
THE NEW HOTEL CORNER KING
AND ALAKEA.
Contract Awarded to Peter IIigh-A
Modern Lodging House-Wire and
Plaster-New Campbell Block,

The contract for building the new
hotel at the corner of King and Ala
kea streets has been let to Peter High
d Co., for the sum of $1,000. Plans
call for "A plaster building with wire
latticing, the same material as was
used in the Judiciary building. The
building will be Spanish style of de-
sign frequently met with along the
Mediterranean. Decorations and the
outside arrangement will be oriental,
specially designed for the tropics.
The house will contain thirty living
rooms, parlors, dining hall, culinary
department and a number of business
offices on the ground floor on Alakea
street. On this side will be about ten
magnifcently decorated arches, SO ar
ranged as to give the appearance of
an oriental arcade. In addition to
this there will be a balcony overhang-
ing the sideyalk the entire length of
tn building on Alakea and King
streets.
James Campbell and the l. o. o. F.
people have failed to agree on terms
for the building on Fort street, in
consequence of which the improve
ments to that vicinity will be curtailed
for the present and the new Camp
bell block will only extend from
Wichman's jewelry store to Chilton's
barber shop. AS soon as the Odd Eel
lows building can be acquired the
block will be extended through to
King street.
The first move will be to take out
the old wooden structure occupied by
Gertz' shoe store, the Boss candy
mans shop and the old Ehlers build
ing. 1t is proposed to have the new
! building front with the Wichman
block and it will be of similar design
After the balance of the property has
been acquired it will be Il simple mat
ter to extend the block out

READABLE DESCRIPTION SENT
OUT FROM CHICAGO.
At the Bottom of the Pit-Traycrsing
the Crater Absolute Silence Over
hovs-Geologist Astonished.

CHICAGO.-W Word comes from Ha-
waii that the volcano of Kilauea is
again in very troubled state. Thus
far the outbreak is not as violent as
that of 1894, but it possesses that pc
culiar interest which has always cen
tered around the least disturbance of
this remarkable crater
One who has recently visited the
scene. among the hundreds who have
been constantly going there from
Honolulu during the past few weeks
as a sort of summer diversion, writes
to friend i'm Chicago that the VOL
cano has broken out again with great
violence" This does not mean, how
ever, that it is throwing up vast guam
titles of lava, as shown in pictures cf
the eruption of Vesuvius, for Kilauea
does not perform in that way. The
writer from the scene of the eruption
SAYS:
THE fire is in the bottom of fun
nel-shaped pit about 700 feet deep and
200 feet across at the top. The
shape of this opening is irregular, and
these dimensions make it look shall
lower than it is. The effect is conduc-
i've to larger estimate of the out
break than it really warrants, for
though it lacks nothing in the element
of interest and wonder, there is no
great danger to people who keep at a
respectful distance"
The writer above referred to des-
cribes the scene, as he witnessed it.
as wonderful and remarkably impress
sive. He says:
"1'he approach To the volcano, over
three miles of cold, black desolation
is weird and uncanny, and no one
would be surprised at any occurrence
that might take place. If the ghosts
Pele herself, were to appear and for
bid the approach of the curious tour
ist, it would not take much persua
sion to cause one to turn back with
out question. The approach is very
| like walking over hell turned cold
and the crater itself is hell in active
operation.
"The absolute silence of the whole
proceeding is perhaps the most i'm
pressive thing about it. You hear NJ
kissing, no spouting, no splutter; onl,
occasionally, when a fountain of law
is thrown up. 1t falls back on tn,
black or scarlet surface, with soft
gentle and yet terrible rustic. like It's
sue paper, which gives one some ide
of the quiet horror of real flow o

ARIZONA.

Arizona stands at the threshold Of an
era of wonderful social and industrial de-
velopment. There can't be doubt about
the fact The dawn for which she has
waited so long s breaking at last There
is every promise of a day of great 9ros-
perity and permanent upauilding just be-
fore her. The impulse OF Il new and ener-
giving hope is. visible everywhere among
her people. While the cumulative effect of
many things, which made but small i'm.
preston as they transpired singly, is now
commanding for her a fall share OF atten-
ton and interest abroad: among home
seekers and capitalists.
. A lively competition has sprung up for
the possession of things which have hereto
fore gone a-begging for ownership. There
is a scramble for franchises. Nothing more
surely indicates great industrial awaken.
ing than this. The rates of interest arc
falling to moderate figures. Nothing more
surely indicates confidence and competition
among the money lenders than this.
Arizona has reached that climacticel
period which every western state has ex.
perienced sometime in its history when
after long and weary struggle and doubt
with each side of the balance first up and
then down. the clouds of dependency
have suddenly rolled away, and a sunhurst
of cnergizing hope has thrilled the droop
ing spirits of the people to greater aMc
Drawer endeavor than before.
For the last twelve years the subsistence
of the great Tombstone boom and the com
pletion of two transcontinental lines O
railroad across her territory ha.
rather dropped out of public attention
but in that TINE she has been quietly &C
cumulating fund of substantial wealth
and force Of moral character which
qualify her now to rise up and take hel
destiny in he2own hands.
The population of Arizona is Mexican
This is a mistake of great Importance from
the moral point of view. There is but on,
considerable center of Mexican population
in the territory, the city of Tucson, anC
even there it IS not by any means at pres
emf the predominating element. 1t thinl
it is certain that Arizona has not to-day
nearly so large Mexican population al
Colorado and not above one-tenth as mucl
as New Mexico. -"Fitz- Mae" in Denve
