RUSHED THEM ON BOARD.
A Naval Officer Tells of the Troubles
on the Adams.

A naval officer on the flagship Bal
timore stated this morning that the
trouble at present being experienced
on board the United States ship Adj
ans, is due altogether to the action
of the government in rushing lot of
unframed and inexperienced youths
on board the Adams.
This same officer stated that the SER
vice is entirely new on the Pacific
station. On the Atlantic side the
boys are carefully selected and given
six months training and discipline on
shore before being taken on board.
They have been handled with success
there. This encouraged the extension
of the service to the Pacific side and
in order to get it started the navy de-
partment placed the youngsters on
the Adams without a days training.
The officers on board are having a
frightful time of it. The Adams will
arrive in Honolulu next month.

Some one has said that when
the enterprising burglar isn't
burgling, he is just as good as
any other man. 1t may be so
and it may not ; but at any
rate it is mighty cold comfort
for the man who has been
touched for his gold watch
and his winnings on the bicycle
races. The festive burglar has
been very busy of late. He
finds a good field in Honolulu,
where the latch string is al
ways out. But his occupation
will soon be gone. Residents
are becoming more careful /;
they are investing in safes for
their homes. Judging from
our sales during the past week,
we have reason to believe that
we are doing most of the sup
plying. We handle Victor
safes. We selected this line
because we know that no better
safes are made. This guaran-
tee goes with each safe-they
are both fire and burglar proof.
Most people imagine that a
safe costs a barrel of money ;
they don't. We have a small
safe made by the Victor peo-
pie; it is called the Queen. 1t
is just the thing for putting
away coin, jewelry and valua-
BILE papers, We sell it for
$500. We carry six sizes
from the small Queen to the
standard size. Orders for
larger sizes are filed at short
notice. We have supplied two
well known business houses
during the past week with
large Victor safes; the buyers
took Victors in preference to
any other make. They were
wise.

A NEW INDUSTRY.

The remarks of practical truck
and fruit farmer which were publish
ed yesterday, are well worth ponder
ing over. While so many of our own
people and also settlers who rnne
from abroad, give their attention to
coffee, he is willing and eager f. go
into line of business which is com
paratively untried, but which he feels
assured will bring him financial sue
cess.
His comparison between this place
and the Southern California of TWEEN
ty-eight years ago is quite right. No
one, in those days, supposed Southern
California could raise its own fruit
and vegetables, but now not only does
it raise sufficient for it's own needs,
but carload upon carload of its fruit
and garden produce go East to less
favored climates.
1t may be said that there S no
market for much produce. In the first
place there is our own market. In
the year 1896 according to the Custom
House statistics this country import
ed over $4,000 worth of fresh fruit,
and over $4,000 worth of potatoes and
other vegetables. This probably
meant a sale of 100000 worth of goods,
for invoice value and retail value vary
quite that amount. Not all of this, it
is true, could be raised on the Islands,
but very large part of it could. The
one item for lines and lemons ought
TO be wiped out entirely and the arti-
Gle appear upon our export and not
upon our import list.
But the figures given show that
there is quite a market locally. More
over, at the present time, many of
these imports are sold at prices that
are prohibitory to all but the wealth.
Ter portion of the community. But let
such articles as peas and caulifiowers
be raised in or near Honolulu, and sold
at reasonable prices, and the market
for them would increase enormously,
for it must be rendered that bigger
profits are made from selling many
things at a small price, than ever are
made by selling few at large one
The 25 cent razor has made fortunes
where the $50 razor only brought a
fair return for the capital invested.
Given the home market. the pros
perity of this industry, properly con
Quoted, is assured. but what we want
is foreign market, and that is fur
nished us by Canada. Bound up in icy
SHOWS for large part of the year
these southern isles should furnish the
Canadian markets with fruits anc
vegetables at seasons when they can
not be grown, and when such goods
are at a premium. We have regu
Gar monthly service now, and WE
shall probably have a fortnightiy
service before long, and through tn,
months from November to April there
would be an open market for sucf
goods.
We have so long depended upon tn,
Chinese for our vegetables, and they
furnish such an inferior class of goods
that we have come to the conclusion
that nothing can be done in this line
here. The thorough experiment to b'
now made will be matter of interes
to those who are interested in tn,
development of the small industries
of the country.

The report of Miss Burbank shows
that there are only $50 regular sub
scribers to the Library. This is not
large number when we consider that
there are 1880 Americans, British and
Germans in the city, and 3,46S Part
Hawaians, making a total of 4,79S,
fully one-half of whom are capable OF
reading English fiuently and of I'M
derstanding what they read. Some
thing should be done to increase the
regular subscription list. This com
munity is a reading community, and
is well posted in the affairs of the
world; it should therefore give un-
grudging support to an institution of
this kind. One did not expect that the
report of the Librarian would have
given the regular subscribers to this
institution as stationary, and especi-
ally as there has been no financial de-
preston which has caused people to
cut off their little luXuries. 1t is no
ticeable that fourteen people have
during the year withdrawn from the
association, and it would seem the
duty of the administrative commit
tee to find out why they withdrew, so
that if there have been objections
these might be met. One fruitful
source of complaint is the lack of
printed catalogues. People go to the
library and unless they have heard of
a particular book they are at sea as
