Nile cataracts give exceptional interest
- the scheme. Prof. Forbes, who has
gone over the ground TO be covered by
the prospective operations, has made a
special examination into the needs OF
the culCiyators. lie has already tabu-

would be developed and made prosper
ous and profitable by the Harvesting of
the Nile. He surveyed the river from
Assouan, the site of the first cataract,

which the fourth cataract is situated.
There is between the fifth and sixth
and last of the famous cataracts a
stretch of country of which more VIII

although il has been decided by the
government officials engaged in the
survey TO let il alone for the present.
It is believed that scientific irrigation
would make it one Of the richest tracts
of land in the world. Only a rough

tailed investigation being confined 70

force of the waterfall at these three
points could be utilized for driving

outlined, involved the construction OF
reservoirs for supplying the ~cultivators

SAD OCCURRENCE.
Death OF Miss Mary Mcintyre In
NUuanll

The many friends OF Miss Mary Nc
Intyre will be both shocked and sad
dened TO learn of her death last night
at her late home ON Nuuanu avenue 1t
was shortly after 9 o'clock when she
breathed her last
Ever since last Wednesday, deceased
had been confined TO the house through
illness. 1t was considered by the fam
lily from the complaint from which she
suffered, that she was in danger, but
not until yesterday morning at 10 did
extremely serious symptoms appear.
The family physician called in two 9TH
er associates and, after a consultation,
it was given out to the family that the
only chance for recovery lay in an op-
Grafton. Consequently, at about 6
o'clock last night, the operation was
begun and the patient died while this
was still going on.
Miss Mcintyre was SO years of age
and was young lady very we'll liked
by all who knew her. Wherever she
could be of any use she was always on
hand and where duty pointed, she was
the first TO volunteer her services. She
will be greatly missed from the ranks
of those who had, through her most ex-
ceIlent qualities, learned to love her.
Miss Mcintyre was daughter of
Captain Mcintyre, recently deceased,
and leaves a brother and three sisters
to mourn her death. Two of the sis
tiers are here in the city while the other
is in California.
The funeral will take place from the
family residence on Nuuanu avenue, at
3 O'Clock this afternoon, the Rev. d. P.
Birnie officiating, and the body will be
Inferred in Nuuanu cemetery. Friends
are invited to be present.
