Paper Made $50 Years Axo.

From investigation made by DR.. A..
Campbell, paper making appears to
be a very old industry in India. In
the year 1873 the attention of the
English government was called to the
remarkable quality Of the paper made
in the state of Nepal. The fiber Of
this paper was so tough that sheet
doubled on itself could scarcely be
torn with the fingers. The paper was
so pliable and durable that it did not
wear at the folds during 20 years.
Whereas 4 English paper, especially
when eight OF ten sheets were folded
up in, one packet, could not stand
keeping in this state uninjured more
than four or five years.: A copy of a
Sanskrit work, though $50 years old,
was in perfect preservation, having
all that time withstood the ravages OF
insects and the wear and tear of use.

THE SHAH EN- ROUTE.
Poverty-Stricken Subjects Look For
ward with Dread to the
Journey.

Muzaffer-ed-Din's journey. to the
countries of western Europe is an event
of great moment to the poor creatures
along the line of his progress. The Nor
Oar, an unimpeachable authority on
Persian affairs, describes the manner
of his majesty's journey from Teheran
to Djulfa, on the Russian frontier. Ac-
cording to this newspaper, the
wretched peasantry may we'll look for
ward with terror to the appearance of
the king of kings and his huge convoy.
Says the Nor-Dar: 'In every village
and hamlet of the provinces through
which Muzaffer-ed-Din will shortly
pass on his journey to the west there
is just now activity in the collection of
great stores of provisions of all kinds
for supplying the wants of the many
thousands of persons who accompany
his majesty from the capital to the
frontier. But it is not with Joy, but
with grief and despair, that the poor
people 60 about these preparations.
Such acquisitions are imposed upon
the unfortunate people in virtue of q
legally sanctioned and ancient Persian
custom, according to which the shah,
whenever he visits the provinces, makes
the satraps responsible for everything
he and his retinue require, and the
lastspenny at the cost of the peasantry.
Hence, the imposing progress of the
Persian monarch through his, own
dominions, accompanied by great
bodies of infantry and cavalry and an
enormous personal encourage, costs
the state exchequer not a single farth-

serf to the satrap, whose brow must
sweat to find the ne eedful, first for the
padishah, and, secondly, for the grind
ing taskmaster, who has brought his
satrapy at an imperial auction. Thus
the governors of Kazvik, Chamsa and
Aserbaishan were recently commanded
by the shah to provide all that was
required for the fitting reception of
himself and the host of his convoy on
his passage to Djulfa. That order was
sufficient to sink the peasantry of

"Crowds of these distracted peas

correspondent of the Nor-Dar with the
question whether the shah would-re-
turn by the same route or would he go
by way of the Caspian and Resht, and
thereby relieve them Of the desolating
effects of second visitation. Unfor-
tunately, the correspondent was un-

Reports have been received from
Captain Borchgrevinlk, who headed an
expedition to the Antarctic regions,
his vessel being the Southern Cross.
Ice was first encountered on Dec. 80,
1898, and two weeks later land was
first sighted. It proved to be Balleney
island, but near approach was impossi-
BILE owing to the ice. For two weeks
the vessel was hemmed in the pack.
and preparations for a sledge journey
to Victoria were being perfected when
the pressure slackened little. The
Southern Cross had been hemmed in
for 4S days, and on the night of Feb,
II, dropped anchor in Robertson's bay.
Stores were landed at South Victoria
Land. On the 2sd Of Janury severe
southwest gale occurred. It lasted 4s
hours, and two anchors were lost. But
for the heroic work of the men the
vessel would have been lost. On March
1 the union jack was hoisted on Vic.
toria Land, and on March 2 the South
ern Cross, commanded by Captain Jen-
sen, sailed for New Zealand, leaving
Borchgrevink and party. of ten at
the settlement, of Cape Adare, 2, 500
miles south Of Australia. The party
remained in the vicinity of Adare for
some months, experiencing great hard
ships and suffering intensely from the
extreme cold. On June 26 an attempt
was made toreach the coastland to the
west of Robertson's bay, where the
camp was pitched, with the thermom-
eter registering 40 degrees below zero.
An island was discovered and named
Duke of York island. On this journey
the lowest temperature registered was
experienced-52 degrees below zero.
Subsequently expeditions from Rob
ertson's bay were dispatched during
August and September, with the re-
suit that valuable collections were
made. The land toward the south
west of York island, in the Admiralty
range, was visited and named Geikie
island, owing to it's geological inter-
est. Duke of York island itself was
found to be cut through from east to
west by broae, deep quartz reefs. 'Tt
may here suffice to say" remarked Mr..
Borchgrevink, ''that minerals of great
value occur in this vicinity, and that
undoubtedly, in time to come, science
will receive that support from COM
merce which the progress of civiliza-
tion justifies, and that the future Ant
arctic exploration will never be in
want of financial support. Officially,
l took possession of Duke of York
island for Sir George Newnes. Geikie

To a branch OF q Honolulu family
belongs the great honor OF receiving

by Midshipman John Lucas. Jr., in the

On June q. 1854, Aiidshipman Lucas
was aboard II. VI. S. Hecla. During the
bombardment of Russian fort. a smok-
ing, blazing shell fell on the forward
deck Of the Hecla. Aidshipman Lucas
picked up the shell and threw it over
board. It burst into a thousand frag-
ments a second after leaving the mid
shipmans hand The brave young man
fell to the deck. his clothes being lit

Midshipman Lucas, now Captain Luz

George Lucas, father of these gentle

marine during the las, four decades:

The complete figures for 1890 are
not at hand. but from the partial re-
port OF the Commissioner OF Nayiga-
ton. above referred 10. we learn that
during the year ending June 80, 1900,
| the total tonnage OF American vessels
officially registered amounted to 4l7,03i
gross tons. Full returns have not yet
been received from Honolulu, but up TO
the present about $1,000 tons of Ha-
waiiau vessels are entitled to Ameri-
can documents under the act OF Con-
gress creating the Territory OF Hawaii.
The tonnage OF Porto Rican&Fessels
entitled to American documents is
small. not exceeding 1000 tons, though
quite a large tonnage heretofore be-
longing to Cuba and under the Spanish
flag will receive American registry, and
the same is true of respectable sized
feet and tonnage in the Philippines,
heretofore under the Spanish flag.
Though a great percentage of the gain
in tonnage for the past year has been
due TO the annexation of Cuba, Porto
Rico, Hawaii and the Philippine ISL
ands. yet the fact that no less than
31S,S gross tons of shipping was built
in the United States and added to the
marine stamps the year as one of the
most prosperous in shipbuilding and
maritime extension for the last four
decades.
The most important additions to the
marine during the year have been the
large steel vessels built for trading on
the Great Lakes. They include the
James ]. Hill, 6025 gross tons. the larg-
est merchant vessel ever built in the
United States. On the Eastern coast
and of sailing ships the most notable
additions were the steel ship Edward
Sewall, 1906 gross tons. and the steel
bark Kaiulani, 1870 gross tons. On the
Pacific Coast the largest merchant yes
sci built during the past year was the
steamship Californian, 5S7s tons gross,
which will be the pioneer vessel in
opening up regular steam eommunica
ton between Hawaii and the ports on
the Eastern coast of the United States.
The vessels constructed on the Pacific
Coast during last year amounted to 81,
$50 gross tons. From June Ii to July l
SG31 tons of Hawaiian vessels have
changed flag in San Francisco. Three
steamers. of an aggregate OF 5000 tons,
are building in Eastern yards for trade
with the Island of Porto Rico, and
several others are being constructed
for the trans-Pacific trade. In short,
the past year, while highly satisfac-
tory and gratifying from the stand
point Of the merchant marine, is but
an indication of the further progress
which undoubtedly viii be made in
1901 in the restoration of the American
merchant marine to its former proud
position.
