Notes.

MAUI, Jan. 9.-The question of an
nexation is again being agitated on
Maui. There will be a meeting some
evening of next week in the Walluku
Court House, to which citizens from
all the districts of the island have
been invited.
1t is stated that all the old district
societies will soon be revived. AS far
as it can be learned the sentiment on
Maui in favor of union with the Unit
ed States has steadily increased during
| the last year or two.
The beautiful Lahaina church, built
from plans designed by Ripley & Dick
ey of Honolulu is well-nigh compile
ton. This artistic structure is the gift
of Hon. H. P. Baldwin, and s intend
ed to replace the old adobe Vance
church, in which DR.. Baldwin, father
of Mr.. Baldwin, preached for many
| years.
The kona wind of last week blew the
iron roof off "Craigielea," the summit
house of Haleakala. The fierce blast
scattered the sheets of iron all over the
mountain side; not piece remains in
position, and the rafters have bcen
badly injured, so violent was the sturri

GEORGE WILL co

Visit United States.
Entertained Friends on Kinau-Will
Purchase Big Flag.

Fifteen employees of the Wilder S.
S. Company and several friends accept
ed invitations to dine with Purser Geo.
C. Beckley on board the Kinau yester-
day afternoon. The genial host met
his guests on deck, and with them pro-
ceeded in body to the saloon, where
an elaborate spread was in waiting.
Captain T. X. Clark of the Kinau oc-
cupied seat at the head of the table,
and officiated as POSTMASTER. The
others present were: Purser Beckley
of the Kinau, Captain E. F. Cameron
of the Claudine, Captain r. Andrews,
shipping superintendent; ]. Suther-
land, chief engineer of the Claudine; j.
Little, superintendent-eng of the
Wilder S. S. Company; A. Inman, first

the Kinau; D. H. Davis, freight clerk
of the Kinau; w. A. Beckley, assistant
freight clerk; l. Solomon, first Off
GER; c. Kruger, quartermaster; w. Luz
cas-, and reporter for the Advertiser
AS the napkins were being unfolded
Mr.. r. D. Davis arose, and, on behalf
OF the donors, presented Mr.. Beckley
with purse and a handsomely en-
crossed memorial
Mr.. Beckley was taken by surprise,
but responded gracefully. He said:
1.-THE money will be used in the pur-
chase of the largest Hawaiian flag ever
seen in Hawaii. 1t will be larger than
the great flag of the American League,
and will fly from the foremost of the
Helene from San Francisco to Honolu-
lu. Then it will float from a tall pole
in my yard on the slope of Punchbowl
hill"
From this point, Mr.. Beckley gave
an interesting account OF his career as
mariner, and paid a glowing tribute
to the late S. G. Wilder, to whom, he
said, he owed all he was and expected
to be in life. 1t was nearly 50 years
since Mr.. Wilder took the speaker in
his employ, and ever since that he had
been connected with the business Of

ENPLoRERs RETuRN.

English Officers Do SUGGEST al Work
on Chinese Frontier.
The Picking and Tientsin Times OF
the 5th of December says: On Wednes-
day evening there arrived here from
Picking the long-expected English cf-
ficers from India, Captain Welby of
the Eleventh Hussars and Lieutenant
Malcolm of the Ninety-third Highland
ers These hardy explorers left Leh
in Ladakh in April last and have thus
been eightmonths en- route, undergoing
the usual privations that such travel
ers experience. They started with a
retinue of II Argauns and SO mules;
but death and desertion gradually
thinned their numbers, and they ar
rived with three attendants and three
mules. AS each mule died it became
necessary to sacrifice clothes, instru-
ments, ammunition, food, etc, so that
Northern Tibet is dotted with their
belongings. On arriving at the from
tier, between Tibet and China, they
found themselves penniless, as Lon
don letters of credit are not of much
use there. They were fortunate enough
to meet Mr.. Reinhart, Dutch mis-
sionary, who, although personally i'm
able to assist them financially, was
able to recommend them to apply 10
Messrs. William Forbes & Co.'S agent,
who at once relieved them of any furth-
er anxiety and financed them right
through to Picking. They were able
to induce Mr.. Reinhart to accompany
them to Picking, and his experience OF
travelling in North China proved in
valuable and enabled them to get along
without undue extortion. The trav-
elers looked well and declared they had
enjoyed their expedition immensely.
Their route was through Western and
Northern Tibet. They spoke very
highly of the kindness and hospitality
of the Mongol tribes. Captain Welby
and Lieutenant Malcolm left yesterday
to join the Nanchang at Tangku, in
order to proceed to Hong Kong TN
their way back to India. 1t is to be
hoped that their journal will be pub
lished, as they seem to have great
deal of interesting facts to make known
They discovered one of the sources
of the Yangtsze, and followed the river
down for seven days.

declined TO join with the other pow
ers in coercing Japan TO relinquish
part of what they had won, the feel
ing underwent complete change, and
the japanese realized that the British
were their friends, not their enemies.
At present an unspoken dread of Rus
STA exists throughout the country, and,
profiting by the experience of the Chi
nese campaigns, the Japanese are still
further perfecting and Strengthening
their forces, both on land and sea.
NO; do not consider that there is
any likelihood of an influx of japanese
into Australia. The Japanese have For
mosa, which is a splendid country, and
their surplus population will be en-
couraged to go there"
Mr.. Burns (of Messrs. Burns, Philip
& Co., agents for the N. Y. K. line)
added that the Nippon Yusen Kaisha
intended to spend a good deal of money
in the Australian ports. AS agent for
the line, he had been instructed to
victual and coal the steamers at Sgd
ney, the owners recognizing that it is
necessary to become good customers
in order to secure profitable trade.

There are people in Hawaii, who fol-
lowing an old custom, buy their groceries
in California believing that they can save
money. It is possible this might have
been done with success in the long ago,
before competition reduced the cost of liv-
ing on the Islands. 1t is possible, too,
that the people who continue to buy at
the Coast are not aware that the canned
and bottled goods, 1--WE mean delicacies),
may be bought from US at strictly whole
sale prices. 1t is not probable that per
sons ordering from California order in
small quantities; they probably get case
of vegetables or fruits in an order. We
are prepared to fill such orders in Homo
lulu at astonishingly large discounts from
retail prices. The opportunity is here for
you to save money without sending to
California.
We have all manner of timed goods
an order for any quantity will be promptly

Fabulous sum Paid for Filaments in
Electric Lamps.

Fabulous sum Paid for Filaments in
Electric Lamps.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 29.-Uni-
ted States Consul Norris, at Client, has
reported an interesting fact to the State
Department regarding the manufacture
of incandescent lamps. 1t is that the
most expensive product in the world
is the charcoal thread employed in
the lamps to furnish light. This will
be interesting news to the public who
use electric light nightly without be
ing cognizant of such a proximity tc
wealth.
1t is, for the most part, manufactur-
ed at Paris and comes from the hands
of an artist who desires his name to
remain unknown in order to better pro-
tect the secret of manufacture There
have been many unsuccessful attempts
to learn this secret, and fabulous sums
have been offered to the manufacturers
to divulge even the artists name
This product is sold at wholesale by
the gramme, and, reducing this price
to the basis of pounds, it is easily
found that the filaments for lamps CT
20 candle-power are worth $4,000 per
pound, and for the lamps of 80 candle
power the fabulous sum of $4,000 per
pound.
The former have diameter of TWEEN
ty-thousandths of l millimeter, or l.
S74-1O-millionths, and the latter less
than one-fifth of this size.
The f1laments for lamps of three can
dle-power are so light that it requires
nearly 100000 of them to weigh one
pound. Placed end to end these 1,50O,-
600 filaments would reach 1877 miles.
