First-class grocers include
among their patrons people
whose tastes run to the dainty.
1t may not pay the dealer TO
handle such goods alone but
if one of our 1900 customers
wants Armour's Sliced Bacon
in tins we feel under obligations
to that customer to keep a
stock on hand to supply his
wants. That's how we came to
order it first, one man wanted
it. Now our sales average
nearly a dozen cases a week
and we seldom sell more than
one tin at a time-Armour's
goods are all right, particularly
his sliced bacon.
The best Block Butter is
worth half a dollar a pound
too high to use for cooking.
The next grade is California
Creamery-sells for 25 cents;
still high for a large family
where much of it is used. A
kit contains rs pounds, we
sell one for $3.50 and the but
ter is good enough for the
table. This is what you call
economy.
California Pig Pork is a
delicacy here because more
and better care is given to the
feeding of the pigs. There's no
question about the quality of
the American hog and this
pig pork we sell is from select
ed young pigs, nothing strong
about it and not a bad piece in
a 25lb. key. It's yours to try.
Other articles we recon-
mend Salmon Bellies and
Bioater Mackerel. They are
as great a delicacy as can be
found-we swear by the
bloaters because they are prime
and fat-a single one if you
want it or a kit.

MORE CABLE NEWS
Matter Under Discussion
in Ottawa.
Hawaii Has No Power to Grant
Cable Concession to
England.

OTTAWA, June Sir Mackenzie
Bowel asked whether the report of the
Canadian Commissioners, appointed to
attend the Pacific Cable Conference
will be laid before Parliament. The
Secretary of State said the Government
is not in a position to make the con-
tents public yet, inasmuch as the mat
ter forms the basis of a further con-
ference, which will take place between
Mr.. Laurier and the Imperial authori-
ties during the Prime Minister'S visit
to England.
Senator Macdonald, of British Co
lumbia, asked if the Government of
Hawaii has consented to allow the
landing of the Pacific cable on the ISL
ands, as reported in the newspapers.
Mr.. Scott was unable TO give any in
formation. Sir Mackenzie Bowel
pointed out that the Government of
Hawaii could not grant any such per-
mission without abrogating their
treaty with the United States, as I'M
der that treaty the consent of the
United States is necessary. That con-
sent has already been refused.

OAHU COLLEGE.

The graduating exercises at
Oahu College Thursday evening
were indeed gratifying evidence
of the progress of that institution.
The essays delivered by the gradu-
ates showed careful study, and the
subjects dealt with were such as
to give scope to the originality of
the pupil without reaching out to
the ponderous, fictitious general
ties that sound well but mean little.
The graduating parts were true in
dicators of the development of the
youthful minds under the course
of study mapped out and carried
out by the teachers of the institu-
ton. Year by year the officers of
Oahu College see the steady pro
gress toward the fulillment of the
hopes and plans of the founders.
The teachers keep in touch with
the onward march of educational
methods, and seek constantly and
successfully to introduce new feat
ures in the curriculum that will
give students the opportunity to
lay broad and sound educational
foundations. Whether Oahu Col
lege will in the future more nearly
approach the higher college stand
ards of the United States depend;
largely upon the financial assist
ance given for establishing new
and more advanced departments
Certain it Is that the officers are
now making excellent use of the
funds placed at their disposal and

AN ELECTRICAL SCHEME.

Power to Be Transmitted Many
Miles From Santa Ana.
One of the most stupendous electro
cal engineering schemes on record by
which power is to be conducted from
Santa Ana to Los Angeles, distance
of so miles, under a pressure of $4,000
volts, is now in process of consumma-
ton, says the Call of June 5th. Two of
the gentlemen who have undertaken it
are now at the Palace Hotel. Their
names are H. H. Sinclair and o. H.
Ensign, vice-president and electrical
and mechanical engineer, respectively,
of the Southern California Power Com
pany.
Henry Fisher is the president of the
company. The nature of the undertake
ing and what contracts have so far
been closed up are explained by Mr.
Ensign as follows:
This company has been organized to
develop the water power of Southern
California. In this instance, we pro-
pose to deliver electrical energy equi-
valent to 1000 horsepower in the car
house at Los Angeles. The power sta
ton is in Santa Ana Canyon, II miles
from Redlands and so miles from the
point of development.
1.-THE current will be generated at
1000 volts and transformed into $4,000.
This will be the longest distance
that has ever been transmitted; yes,
more power than twice as long as any
heretofore. The highest voltage that
has ever been attempted ere this is
$4,000
'The power is derived from the wa
tiers of the Santa Ana River, which is
to be directed from the stream by a
canal, fume and tunnel work along the
side of the canyon to a point where it
suddenly drops through 1900 feet of
pipe distance of $50 feet to the water
wheels. This will give vast head, or
pressure"

AN PARTICULARS HOUSE.

Queer Devise of Tokyo Professor
to Prevent Rocking,
Prof. John Milne, head of the I'm
perial College of Engineers of Tokyo,
and the greatest authority on earth
quakes, has devised building that
cannot be damaged by earthquakes,
solved the problem that for over 30
centuries baffied the ablest scientists.
Professor Milne abandoned all pre-
vious ideas and devised building on
entirely new lines. 1t is novel, simple
and absolutely safe. The whole secret
is in the foundations, which rest upon
huge iron shot. When an earthquake
occurs the whole building rolls with
the movement of the earth. 1t is real
" ball-bearing building. 1t has been
tiled several times, and on each occa-
sion proved all that the inventor
claimed for it.
Professor Milne has also invented an
earthquake coat" 1t reaches from
head to feet, and is really two coats,
one over the other. The space between
is heavily padded. A hood with four
inches of padding in the crown goes
with it. Instead of buttons there are
clasps, so that the coat can be donned
in a second On each side are 10 pock-
cts for provisions. Each pocket is de-
signed for certain articles, and alto
gether they will hold enough proVi-
sions for several days. The coat is
designed for use as last resort only.

THEY ARE FRIENDLY.
Legation Says Japan's Claims From
Hawaii are Just.

Hawaii are Just.
NEW YORK, June 1O.-A Herald dis
patch from Washington says: So far as
the Japanese Legation is informed, Japan
has not modified her original demand up
on the Hawaiian Government for indem-
nifty in money in the cases of the Japa-
nese emigrants refused admittance to
Hawaiian ports in alleged violation OF
treaty rights.
A high official of the Legation said to-
day that, although he had not yet learned
the precise amount demanded, it is a
moderate and reasonable one. He said
the intensity of feeling in Japan, both
as regards the Government and people,
against Hawaii has been greatly exag-
gerated. The Japanese Minister to Ha.
wall, Mr.. Shimamura, had had several
friendly conferences with the Hawaiian
authorities, and all the proceedings in
the matter had been conducted with di-
plomatic courtesy, and there had been
no show of hostility on either side.
The japanese expect that their demand
will be acceded to, and that the existing
treaty between the two countries will be
reaffirmed and its stpulations observed
in the future.
eminent, through Secretary Sherman,
had made a request of Japan that she
modify her demands upon Hawaii is de-
MED by the officers of the Legation. Nc
communications on the subject have been
made by Secretary Sherman.
The officers of the Legation are author
ity for the statement that Japan has nc
desire to annex Hawaii to her dominions
nor in any way to influence the admins
ration of the Hawaiian Government, and
in the event of any movemet on the part
of the United States toward annexation
Japan would stipuiate only that her pres
ent treaty rights with the United States
and Hawaii be respected and preserved.
