she is officially designated, whose Ia
bic stands directly behind the ear-en-
closed operator. she is in constant
and immediate communication with
each girls section, and can listen to
every word that is uttered--if she SO
chooses, and being woman IS likely
to keep her ears opened wide. If any
operator takes up a conversation with
one of the young men about town, or
is inattentive to the signals Of the au-
tomato drops, or fails to disconnect a
line, she can very promptly be called

the manager can call her into the office
and, with the monitors little slip of
paper report, ask her why she did this.
Or did not do that, Or why she answer
ed subscriber little too sharply.
This is certain to make the next DAVIS
work better, and thus the service will
be one to be proud of and which will
compare favorably with any in the big
cities OF the mainland.

What number %

What number"
Telephone subscribers will soon hear
this familiar metropolitan question
from the central Office, not however
in the deep bass notes of the male
operator, who, for SO many years. has
monotonously answered the patrons of
the local telephone system. Instead
the musical voice of the girl operator
will sing the old, old question OF What
NUMBER" to You. You will, Of course,
courteously answer her query with an
unseen smile, and the next instant
without further care, worry or impa-
thence be in conversational connection
with the desired phone.

THE PLAN A BOON.

This will be boon to the subscrib-
er, especially in the busy hours of the
day, for then he secures prompt and
thorough connections on his line for
the time being, will not be interfered
with, neither will the inquisitiye per
son have the slightest opportunity to
create gossip from the sundry little
bits of conversation which careless
takers allow to percolate through the
wire without thought that there is
possibly leak in the shape of another
phone between them. Still another
feature OF the new system about to be
inaugurated by the Mutual Telephone
Company, is, that when a steamer is
signalled, or a fire in the city breaks
out, and these facts are announced by
the siren-voiced whistles down near
the waterfront, the subscriber cannot
haggle the life out Of the girl operator
by asking her What steamer is that,
central?" or Where is the fire, cen
tral?" She won't answer you at all,
but viii quietly ignore your request for
information, and will sweetly inquire
What number"
NECESSITY Of NEW SYSTEM.
Mr.. Cassidy, manager Of the tele-
phone system, says that under the
present conditions of service, the life
lot telephone operator is an aff1iction
which would have tried even the vail
ant courage OF JOB himself. Honolulu
is an infant no longer, but is grown
city with metropolitan features and
tasks and is rapidly developing beyond
the period where Central can attend TO
all my lady's shopping, oraering her
meats and groceries and the myriad
of little household affairs which have
devolved upon Central for so many
years. Neithe- can my lady just be-
fore leaving her house call up Central
and say ever so sweetly, Central, if
Mrs. SO and So calls me up anytime
this afternoon, tell her can be found
at Mrs. Somebody's house, and Central,
I'll be back at 6 o'clock" ''All right. :
Thank you, good bye"
THE OPERATORS.
In future the girl operator, (and by
the way women don't love each other
too well any way), will not be the re-
cipient OF such requests, but with SIM
Mo inoanuouSnaSS will discomfort such
requests by asking What NUMBER"
Central cannot and will not talk 70
you for several reasons. In the first
place she is supposed to be too busy
manipulating the rlultitudinous stop
plugs in the board il front Of her, and
in watching the automatic and silent
drop-signals which blink and wink at
her from behind the glass enclosed
slots: and in the second place, there
will be G head operator, the monitor.

THE SWITCH BOARD.

Mr.. Cassidy is at present bending
every energy to get his new system
ready for an early termination Of the
old and somewhat unsat isfactory sys-
ten. An Advertiser representative
found him in the new operating room
experimenting the bringing of the
cables and wires into this room and
making the first connection at the rear
frame WORK., which receives the out
side wires. This steel frame work
eighteen feet in length, with its deli
cate wiring is called the cross-connect-
ing board and is situated just behind
the operators working table, or as it
IS commonly termed the switchboard.
From the cross-connecting board the
wires are re-grouped into a smaller,
cloth woven cable in pairs, each cable
provided with three spare" sets,
which are to be used in case an acct
dent or break occurs in the middle OF
the cable and cannot there be repair
ed.
II a seeming maze of forty wires
there is not the slightest chance that
"a certain pair Of wires can be mistak-
en- should break occur somewhere in
the cross-connecting board or in the
switchboard itself By wonderful
system in the arrangement of the pairs
Of wires, which are necessary for each
Tp9anh0nn iha fran
are covered with colored weaving In
a certain pair, for instance, one Rire
has red covering and the other a
blue one; in another set, one wire will
have red and blue covering. and
the other red, and thus the combina-
tions continue indefinitely through the
great mass. These pairs are eventual
ly brought up into the rear of the
switchboard and attached to the deli
cate magnetic mechanism, which, upon
the lifting of a telephone receiver from
it's holder in an office or house in
stantly causes a little brass disk to fall
disclosing the number o. the subscrib-
er desiring a line connection. The
switch aboard has capacity for two
thousand of these sets of wires, and
there is no opportunity for them TO be
burned out with such disastrous re
suits as in the old system.
DETAILS OF BOARD.
As a piece of artistic workmanship
the switchboard itself calls for com
mendation. 1t is thirty-one feet in
length, and about eight feet in height,
mostly made Of polished bird's-eye
maple, the monitors desk being en-
ti1ely composed Of this pretty wood.
The board is divided into sections suf-
lficient for the employment of nineteen
operators. Each section alternates
with a receiving station and a connect
ing station. called respectively : A. and
I"B boards.
In the illustration shown above, the
section Immediately on the end Of the
switchboard is termed the 3D. board,
and the section directly next it, divid-
ed by woodwork is the a board.

Some thirty friends of Mr.. John
O'Reilly, fireman at the Coburn Wooden
Mills, called on him at his home on
Mt. Pleasant avenue, Monday evening,
and presented him with a handsome
purse as a token of their esteem and
friendship. Mr.. John Waugh, overseer of
the earding department, made the pre-
sentation speech in few well chosen re-
marks, and, although taken entirely by
surprise, Mr.. O'Reilly aptly responded.
An enjoyable evening was passed in
games, singing, ETC., after which nice
collation. was served. The party broke
up at late hour, and went their way
with the recollections of a very pleasant
evening.
Winslow, and their family were in town
over Sunday, guests at Hotel Coburn.
They came to attend Easter service at
Bethany church, having been Pensioners
of the pastor, DR.. Spencer, at Watervlle,
and being very warm friends OF Mr..
Spencer and family. Mr. and Mrs.
Sampson contributed very generously to
the purchase of Easter lilies for the dec
Grafton of the church for the occasion.
These lilies were from the greenhouses
of F. G. Danforth at NorrdgewOck,
were growing in pots, and, after they
were used in the church, were distrib-
uted among the members of the society
who were kept from the service by i'll
ness.
