A Model Plant is not complete with
out Electric Power, thus dispensing
with small engines.
Why not generate your power from
one CENTRAL Station? One gener-
ator can furnish power to your Pump,
Centrifugals, Elevators. PIows. Rail-
ways and HOSTS; also, furnish light
and power for a radius of from Is to
80 miles.
Electric Power being used, saves the
labor of hauling coal in your field, also
water, and does away with high-priced
engineers, and only have one engine to
look after in your mill.
Where water power is available it
costs nothing to generate Electric
Power.
THE HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COM
PANY is now ready to furnish Electric
Plants and Generators of all descrip-
tions at short notice, and also has on
hand a large stock of Wire, Chande-

Katahdin.

Boston, May 31.-The United States
ram Katahdin, Commander Wilde.
which has just completed extensive re-
pairs to her starboard engine, made a
trial trip in the harbor today, which
proved not to lie very satisfactory. She
made few circuits of the harbor and
then ran down in the direction of the
fort. When opposite Fort Independence,
the machinery again broke down and the
ram was helpless until the navy yard tug
Iwana was dispatched to her assistance
and towed her back to the yard.
Machinists will be set at work immediate.
~ to make the necessary repairs.
There was mourning on board the ram
as Ensign Joseph Campbell died at the
naval hospital yesterday. He had been
suffering from typhoid fever for some
time. His body will be sent to his former
home at West Union, Ohio.
Commander HowiSon expects to be able
to send the collier Southery away from
the yard the first thing Wednesday morn
ing.
The Maine Naval Reserves are being
examined for positions as regular blue
jackets on board the monitor Wyandotte.
According to the navy yard officials, most
of the men examined are rejected. Out
of one company of sixty-nine men ex-
amined it is stated that but eight or nine
passed.

Mn Indications Of Breaking Camp
at Tampa.

Tampa, Fla, May 31.-There were no
Indications of an immediate movement
today and orders for breaking camp are
not expected until after Gen. Miles's ar.
rival 1t is reported that orders have
been issued to the four batteries of heavy
artillery at Ybor City to be ready to
move at o moments notice, but nothing
in the way of loading supplies on the
ship was done today.
The report that heavy artillery is under
orders, rather lends color to the theory
that Santiago de Cuba is to be the OBJ
jective point of the expedition. That the
war department. expects a protracted cam.
paign is evident by the immense amount
of commissary supplies that have been
received here. Rations for an army of
70, 00O men for three months are now
stored in the government warehouses
or await unloading, while hundreds of
carloads more are expected. The month";

ments was held today. The inspection
was unusually rigid.

Navy Department Has No Fear of the
Cadiz Squadron.


Washington, May 5l.-The frequent re-
ports from Spain through other countries
to the effect that formidable fleet is be-
ing prepared at Cadiz to sail for the Vest
Indies in aid of Cervera causes little ap-
prehension here. Naval officers, through
private means of communication, have

Cadiz fleet is a paper fleet. In other
words its offensive power is altogether
illusory. More than half the vessels whose

order.

that our naval officers are neglecting to

Calais, May 3l.-The body of an aged
man was found hanging to tree in the
woods near the lake shore at Harvey sta
ton, N. B., Sunday. There is no doubt
but that it was case of suicide. The
man came to Harvey by the Boston train

to be travelling to Calais and said he had
been carried past the junction. He is
OF medium size with gray hair and
wh1skers, and is well dressed in black
serge coat and vest and dark gray wooden
trousers. There was nothing in his
pockets that would give clue to his
lde pity, excepting box of morphine
pills put up by Z. 6. Kinsman,. drug
glst, OF Augusta. No one in this city can
suggest who the unfortunate might have
been. The body was out down and
