DEATH OF HI. T. KNIGHT.
He Passed Away at Hardin Springs,
Lake County.

Word comes from Hardin Springs,
Lake County, of the death there on
Sunday of H. T. knight, one of the
Oldest and most highly respected citi-
zens of Sacramento County. Heart
failure was the cause of his death.
Mr. Knight came to California in
1851, and for most of the years since
then had been identified with important
enterprises in this county. For fourteen
years he was Superintendent for the
Natoma Water and Mining Company
and for the last six years was Chief
Engineer for the Sacramento Electric,
Gas. and Railway Company at Folsom
The splendidly equipped powerhouses
on the American River at that point
were erected under his supervision.
He leaves a son and two daughters
c. r., Clara and Bertha Knight. The
former a few weeks ago succeeded the
deceased as Chief Engineer of the
company's plant. The funeral will take

A FINE FEATURE.
One of the Promised Exhibits at

Director A B. Spreckels of the State
Board of Agriculture has written to
Secretary E. F. Smith to the effect
that he has secured from the Union
Iron Works the promise that the COM
pany will make an exhibit at the State
Fair in September of the models of all
the armor-clad war vessels built at
the Union Works.
Nothing that could be exhibited at
the fair will attract more attention
than these models, as all Of these ves-
sells have figured conspicuously in the
brilliant naval engagements that have
brought such renown to American arms
during the present war. Everybody
has read Of the wonderful achievements
of the Oregon, the king-pin of the
American navy, and of the other YES
sells built at the Union Iron Works
on this coast, and people will travel
many miles to see them even in minia-
ture form.
Everything points to an exposition
of rare interest this year. Secretary
Smith says he has assurances that the
manufacturers of the State will make
extensive exhibits The leading fac
tories, being in and about San Fran

les Fair in that city, which hereto

SOME WONDERS OF HAWAII.
"UNCLE SAM WILL GET THE
LARGEST VOLCANO.
Though It Is Not Active It Is More
Wonderful Than Those
That Burn.

With the acquisition Of Hawaii many
facts not heretofore generally known
Will come to light, representative Of
the Record Union who is familiar
with the islands says 1t should be I'M
derstood that there are many wonder
full plantations on the islands, and
their fertility is SO great that few can
estimate the extent of the country's
natural resources.
One of the most interesting of all the
group Of islands is Maui, which boasts
of having the largest and most pictur-
esque extinct volcano in the world,
as we'll as the greatest OF
all plantations, that of the
Hawaiian Commercial Company. This
is the plantation owned by the
young Spreckels boys, Gus and Ru-
dolph, who are not friendly with Claus
Spreckels, their father.
The volcano of Haleakala is about
thirty miles from the town of Spreckels-
vile, on the island of Maui. 1t is the
very heart of the plantation. The town
is interesting, but the plantation alone
is worth a careful study Visitors to
the island seldom go up to the almost
inaccessible crater of Haleakala, though
many venture as far as Spreckelsville.
Haleakala is likely to become great
pleasure resort in the future. 1t is
highly probable that road far more
accessible than any that now exists
will be put through to the summit of
the mountain that contains this great
crater, as the roads to it are now al
most impossible.
The great crater of Haleakala, which
is called that because the word means
the palace or "home of the sum-" is
a spot that is from 800 to $500 feet
deep, and almost thirty miles in cir
conference, being great pit that was
once a living volcano. There is gap
on one side that leads to the ocean,
and through this the mists rush every
morning in such a way as to form
many fantastic cloud-forms. Sir Ed
win Arnold, Mark Twain, and other
well-known writer's have described this
as the most marvellous sight in all the
world.
But before one gets to this enchant
ing spot he comes to the town of
Spreckelsville. One will there see as
many as 5000 acres of sugar growing
at one time. To properly conduct the
business of the plantation requires
fifty-four miles of railroad over the
farm. There are six or seven separate
camps, or settlements, Of workmen, all
connected with the main office by tel
ephone. There is a town for the peo-
pie; there are hospitals, doctors, har-
Dor for the ships owned by the COM
pany, besides great steam plows and
such refineries as one will see in few
places in the world. The irrigation sys
tenn is complete, the water being
brought from a point forty miles from
the center of the plantation. There
are fully a thousand horses in the
stables of the company, while the har-
Dor of Kahalui is at times one of the
busiest centers in the Pacific. 1t is
likely that all this property will take
on a new interest and value under an
nexation.

INCANDESCENT LIGHTS.
The Folsom Electric System to be
Shut OFF at Midnight.

During the low stage of water in the
American River the incandescent lights
Of the Sacramento Electric, Gas and
Railway Company's system will be
shut off at midnight.
Never in the memory of the oldest
inhabitant has the water in the Amer
lean been as low as at the present
time. This is owing to the unprece-
IDENTIFY light snowfall in the mountains
the past winter and spring, a condition
that may not be encountered again in
twenty years-perhaps not in forty.
While the situation is an annoying
one to consumers, it is of course doubly
so to the company, but it is one Of
those things that cannot be helped.
Under such circumstances there is but
one thing to do-to accept the situa-
ton as philosophically as possible,
avoid "cuss" words and pray for early
rains

THERE ARE OTHERS.
But Fortunately They Are Rarely
Met With.

A little incident occurred on street
car the other day which forcibly illus
trates the difference in persons of the
gentler sex in the matter of good breed
ing.
A gentleman was riding up street
on one of the outside seats Of an cleo
tric car being the only occupant. AT
cross street a we'll dressed la-woman
got on the same seat. The gentleman
looked about and noticing that the sun
shone partly on the. woman left his
seat, stepped down on the sidewalk,
and said, as politely as he knew how:
Madam, you may have this end of
the seat, which is in the shade"
The woman moved up couple Of
feet, but instead Of thanking the gentle
man for his thoughtfulness and solicit
tude for her comfort, she snapped out:
Il think you might have done that
when I got on,"
The gentleman was about to reply
when he noticed that the creature with
the up-tilted nose had reached that
period when gray hairs are accepted as
a defense against harsh words, and
he held his peace.

THE WHEELMEN.
Road Race Prizes Distributed-F. T.
Dwyer's Eastern Story.

At a meeting of the Capital City
Wheelmen last evening, President Q. M
Goethe presiding, there was a large at
tendance. The prizes won at the late
road race meet were distributed and
gave satisfaction.
The question of series of road races
was discussed in all its phases, and the
matter referred TO the Race Commit
tee, with expression in favor of a series
either with or without the point and
percentage" systems, but the senti-
ment was in favor of intervals of three
weeks
BY request Francis T. Dwyer gave a
very interesting and detailed lecture of
his observations during a five months
visit at the South, East and North, in
some twenty States of the Union. He
dwelt on wheeling interests first, road
conditions next, on social club life at
the East next, and on wheel ordinances
and their enforcement in cities and
towns
He was especially emphatic on the
New York ordinance concerning vehi-
cles of all classes at crossings and in
turning corners, in passing and in sig
mailing. The same ordinance, except as
to signaling with the hand as to the di-
rection about to be taken, is, an ordi-
nance of Sacramento, but is neither OBJ
served nor enforced, though wherever
adopted in the East it has proved pre-
ventive of accidents and life saver
His observations concerning parks,
street construction, wheel paths and
roadways were deeply interesting and
full of valuable information. 1t was
such a lecture as ought to be heard
by all people who feel an interest in
highway bettermentS
