Dreaming of Home,

1T comes 10 me often in silence.
When the freight sputters low
When the black uncertain shadows
Seem wraiths of long ago;
Always with throb of heartache,
That thrills each pulsive vein,
Comes the old, unGuiet longing
For the peace of home again.

PROF. PR|TCHETTS WORK
SURVEYING TWELVE HUNDRED
MILES OF COAST LINE.
Eighteen Hundred Maps in the Sur
veyor Generals Office Here at His
Disposal-Has a Long Task Ahead.

From talk with Curtis j. Lyons
of the surveyor generals Office this
morning some idea of the vast
amount of work to be done by the
United State geodetc survey corps,
under the direction of Professor
Star. That gentleman said:
professor Pritchett has been agree
ably surprised to find that the survey
work of this Office is as well adyanc-
ed as it is, and that so much of our
work can be utilized. As | understand
it a complete set of Photographed
and Typographical maps of the Islands
are to be prepared in Washington and
printed under the direction of the
United States land and geodetic sur
vey officers. Very little triangulatlon
remains to be done here and the
United State surveyors will use the
bases we have already established to
start from. They really go on with,
elaborate and complete the surveys
we have already made, and where nee
essary will verify them.
You will perhaps be surprised to
learn that we have about eighteen
hundred maps on file in this. office,
and no one except practical survey
or like Professor Pritchett can appre-
ciate the amount of work embodied
in preparing these maps. We have so
many little holdings or grants-ku-
leanas-everywhere about the Islands
that make the work. Some of these
maps are almost priceless, and all OF
them are valuable.
Professor Pritchett comes to do
photographic work, to survey our
harbors and inlets, locate shoals and
hidden rocks, and make soundings
along the entire coast. The magni-
tude of this work may be estimated
when | tell you that our coast line is
1,200 miles in extent. We have some
twenty maps of various harbors and
anChorageS about the islands, but
these will all have to be verified with
the exception of Pearl harbor and pos
sibly Honolulu. / understand that Hi
| 10 harbor is to receive attention al
most at the beginning. We have a
| map of the harbor, but it is many
years ago since | made it. Our coast
lines are well established and there
are numerous triangulation stations
that can be used. All this work can
be utilized, but what the United
States wants is complete survey of
the coast line extending clear out
into deep water. Soundings will be
taken along the entire 1,2OO miles and
as far out as may be necessary. Ev-
cry coral reef. sand bank or Shoal will
| have to be mapped. and this is no
easy task. Take. for instance, what
we call the Maui sea, the water lying
in the basin formed by the Islands of
| Maui, Lanai and Kahoolawe, which is
a vast shoal, but it will all have to
he sounded and the depth of water
put down on the charts. The Unit
ed States Photographed maps are on
a scale we have never attempted and
| they extend clear out to and some
times beyond deep water. The new
Typographical maps can be largely
| prepared from data and maps furnish
ed by this office. but the preparation
of the photographed maps will take
one or more survey vessels long
! time"

STOCKEXCHANGE ASSURED
MEETING TO ORGANIZE HELD
THIS MORNING.
The Whole Subject Fully Discussed
and Committee Appointed to Draft
Constitution and BY Laws.

\ stock and bond exchange is assur-
ed. The first step for its organiza-
ton were taken today. \ meeting
was held, at which it was thoroughly
discussed and "A committee was ap-
pointed to draft a constitution and
by laws.
The meeting was held in the office
in the rear of the Bank of Hawaii
There were present George II. Carter,
Colonel J. H. Fisher, Willard E.
Brown, William \. Love, e. c. Mac
farlane, Harry Armitage, b. Il. Ban
ming, j. q. Wood, j. w. Luning, w. NJ.
Graham, T. II. Lansing and Frank
Hustace. f. Pollitz acted as chair
man and explained at length and in
detail the workings of the stock and
bond exchanges, and their advantages
to the broker, the investor and the
corporations whose stocks and bonds
are dealt in. He said that prior to
the organization of the San Francisco
exchange conditions there were SIM
liar to those here, though worse.
There were no standard quotations and
securities were sold at widely differ
ent prices on the same day, causing
dissatisfaction to buyers and sellers,
and in their minds discrediting brok-
ers. With the organization of the eX-
change business had been increased
and simplified and brokers relieved
from the effects of the misunderstan-
dings of their customers.
At first there was a disposition
among corporations not to list their
stocks on the exchange. But now they
were not only willing, but glad to do
it, paying fee for it and a yearly
amount to keep them listed.
At the time of listing the most exact
and detailed statements as to the
business of the corporation was re-
quired, so that investors had open to
them all the information that could
possibly be of service. The method of
calling the various stocks listed for
bids or offers was explained in de
tail. He suggested that until expert
ence had shown exactly what was re-
quired to meet conditions here that
the constitution and by laws OF the
San Francisco Stock and Bond EN-
change offered WORKING models.
\ committee of five. consisting of
George II. Carter, j. II. Fisher. f. c.
Macfarane. Harry Armitage and
lllaru u. Drown, was appointed TO
draft a constitution and by laws and
to report at a meeting to be called by
it as soon as its work was ready.
1t is probable that the Chamber of
Commerce will be secured temporarily
for the use of the exchange. The
number of seats will be limited and a
price fixed for charter members and
higher price for those that come in
later. The current expenses of the
exchange are to be met by dues. The
membership fees will go into a fund
which will be invested and kept intact
so that the seats will always have the
value of their first cost and whatev-
err additional value business has Civ
en- them. Seats can be sold by men,
bers on the approval of the exchange.

THERE HAS BEEN ABSOLUTELY
NO CHANGE.
Interest on All Hawaiian Bonds is
Being Paid by Minister Damon, the
Same as Uusual.

Questioned as to the present finan-
cial status of Hawaii, Minister Damon
said this morning:
There has been absolutely no
change whatever. Everything is go
ing along just the same as it would
have done without annexation. except
that | have stopped the sale of bonds
until Congress determines our right
to issue more. This of course will de-
lay all the Improvements contcm-
plated under the appropriation bill
from the loan fund, but we can do
nothing until Congress acts"
about the interest on the bonds,
Mr.. Damon: who pays it?"
AS | said before" was the answer,
there has been no change. | am pay
ing the interest coupons as they be
come due. While it is true the United
States assumes four millions of our
debt by the terms of the Newlands
resolution, | have received no advices
whatever as to when the transfer is
to be made. Nor do | expect any. as
my understanding is that everything
of this nature is to be provided for by
Congress. The commission will prob
ably report on our financial problems
as well as others. | am perfectly sat
istied to let matters jog along as they
are doing, for as long as the United
States allows us the revenues from
the custom house and pOstoffice I am
perfectly willing TO pay the interest
on the national debt and ask no uues-
tions as to when the United States
wants to assume it,"

He STATSBSHOP Willis VIEWS OUR FINANCIAL POSITION
THINKS UNION WITH AMERICAN
CHURCH PROBABLE.
1t will Come About Through Mutual
and Amicable Arrangement-Ile EX-
poets to Attend Next Convention.

Much has been said i'm vagueg in
determinate way, about a possible
change of the Anglican church in
these islands from its present eccle-
siastical jurisdiction to the jurisdic-
tion OF the Protestant Episcopal
church in America, following anneNa-
ton. No clear or authoritative state
ment of the matter has been made,
however.
Bishop Willis is preparing a state
ment of the ecclesiastical status OF
the diocese of Honolulu, and the con-
ditions from which a transfer if one
| is made, will have to come. This will
go as fully into the history of the
church here as is necessary for clear
understanding of the matter. This
statement will appear in the next is
sue of the Honolulu Diocesan Maga-
zine.
In regard to the matter Bishop
Willis said this morning: THE change
of flag in and of itself, will make nj
difference in our relations with the
church of England or the church in
America, because there is complete
separation of church and state in the
United States, just as there is and has
been here. The change of sovereignty
therefore, of itself, cannot affect the
church.
However. following what may
prove convenience of administration,
there may be, and | think will be, a
change. and we will become a part of
the American church. But this will
not come Immediately. | think. and
when it does come will be the result
of conference, concord and amicable
arrangement between the church in
America, the church i'm England and
the church here, the three parties in
interest.
without saying how the iniative
for this change will come, il may he
said that it may come through the
/ Board of Missions of the church In
America addressing the authorities OF
/ the Church of England on the subject.
/ From that point there will in ali prob
/ ability be IA mutual exchange of views
on the subject taking into considcra-
! tion all the conditions here and the
/ best means of conserving and streng-
| thening the work of the church.
"The subject will very likely come

Of all the published matter emanat-
ing from the Islands concerning an

them reproduce all of them. In most
cases full credit is given to The Star.
In several instances very compliment

Coptic, and which is the only public
expression on the subject which Pres

DOUBLING OUR NAVAL FORCE.

The Springfield Union says that
with the Nicaraguan canal built the
navy would be almost twice as useful.
1t would not have to be as large as
otherwise to protect our interests.
The canal would also be of immense
benefit to our commerce. 1t would
have been constructed some years ago
had it not been for the opposition of
the railroad interests that feared the
competition in freight rates. There
is no valid objection, either, to gov
ernment ownership of such a water
way. 1t will not be difficult when
the next Congress meets to secure an
appropriation for constructing this
canal
