Editor Advertiser: In commenting
upon real estate some time ago. no.
ticed, you seem to be of the opinion
that rents and real estate are rather
high in Honolulu; and as this seem to
be the general opinion, l would like TO
say a word or two upon the subject
Now rents may be rather high in Homo
lulu as is also every thing else, yet
know for fact that there are houses
to let in this city that would bring
higher rent price in San Francisco.
Most of the cottages here, for one thing,
have larger yards and more spacious
grounds; and which make them more
costly, and which is not often taken
into consideration. Again, however
high rents may be there are but few
houses, when every thing is taken into
consideration. that pay six per cent on
the money invested in this class of
property.
In fact I know of properties that do
not bring in three per cent, notwith
standing the houses have every modern
improvement. I also know of a lady
who has some of the finest houses in
town, and that are situated in the most
desirable locality, who wishes to sell
and put her money in something that
Will bring in an income of six per cent,
and if she cannot, under the most fav
orable circumstances, get an income of
six per cent from her houses 1 don't
see how others can. Any real estate
agent, if he speaks the truth, viii tell
you this is a fact, and if one doubts
their word, all one has to do, is to
go into this class Of investments to-
quickly find it out A great many per-
sons. too, have an idea that if they own
their home the expense of paying rent
is saved; and yet, to own ones home is
often the dearest way of paying rent

MYRTLES TO HAVE
THEATER BENEFIT
NELL Company viii Play for the
CIubmen on Monday
Night.

Myrtle Boat Club colors and Myrtle
club men and their ladies and many
friends will be the conspicuous adorn-
ments of the Hawaiian Opera House
on Monday evening. The Neill Com
pany will give a benefit performance
at that time for the Myrtle Boat Club
to assist that worthy organization In
raising funds for the moving of it's
boethouse to the new location near the
breakwater. Arrangements have been
completed whereby the Neill Company
will present one of it's most charming
productions in Honolulu, Nancy *
Co." which the boys feel sure will
draw out large crowd.
The Myrtle clubmen have waxed en-
thusiastic over the prospects, and al
ready see the parquet, dress circle,
loges and galleries thronged with an
audience of Myrtle sympathizers
which, of course, includes their rivals
for aquatic honors, the Healani Boat
Club.
Although the time is short for pre-
pairing for the benefit night, the COM
mittee appointed by the Myrtles has
already done commendatory work in
arranging for the sale of tickets, dec
Grating the auditorium of the theater,
and giving the glad hand to everybody
they meet. The NeillS themselves like
TO play Nancy & Co." and those who
saw the performance are glad of the
opportunity To again see the play, and
a rousing entertainment is expected.
It is proposed by the Myrtles to dec
crate the boxes. galleries and even
parts of the stage with the brilliant
red symbols of the club. One of the
boxes is to be reserved for the Hea-
lanis and the color tints about this
viii undoubtedly be in blue. The ush-
ers, doorkeepers and others in attend
ance around the theater viii be chos-
en- from the Myrtle clubmen. and viii
appear for duty in natty red hunting
coats and white trousers. The abbre-
waited rowing costumes of the CLUB
have been barred after consultation
with the police. Tickets viii be sold
by members of the club, as we'll as at
Wall. Nichols ComPany's store Tick
cts sold by the members can be eX-
changed for reserved seats at the sta

deny the soft impeachment that they

THE PRICES OF REAL ESTATE
IN THE CITY OF HONOLULU

And besides this the man with average
intelligence, can, if he has any knCwl-
edge of business, or finance, do far bet
ter with his money then to put it into
a house If any one doubt this state
ment let him find out what the plum
bers. painters, and carpenters, etc,
charge for doing repairs, and making
slight alterations, and he will find that
three or four hundred dollars viii often
have 10 be paid for a little work that
can scarcely be noticed when it is
finished.
And then the up keep of property is
a constant source of expense, and this
is particularly true when the houses
have been built by incompetent, or in
experienced workmen. 1 will also say,
that to design a house that is anything
like perfect. and one that will not in
the near future need extensive altera-
ton or repairs, is a most difficult thing
to do, and there are but few that ac-
complish it. And the man that can de-
sign a house that will suit every class
of tenants. is yet to be found.
Besides all this, there are other ex-
penses. The cost of taxes on the prop
erty, and taxes on the income from the
property, and cost of insurance and of
water and many other things that foot
up no small amount; and leave but
small amount for the owner of the
property.
Then beside all this there is the dan
ger of the houses becoming vacant, and
which is only too often the case, and
in which case the house is likely to go
to rack and ruin quicker than when it is
occupied. In regard to Honolulu /
think it is destined to become a large
and prosperous city, if it gets no set
back, but for the present number of in
habitants we think the building craze is
overdone.
Yours very truly,
OBSERVER.

Fruits and Vegetables Freed from
Water to Serve ms Food for
Soldiers.

Dessicated vegetables are coming on
the market for use, especially by pros,
pectorS and hunters, who are obliged
to economic every ounce in the
weight of the provisions they carry
Necessity compels them to select such
foods as combine the maximum of nu-
triment with the minimum of bulk and
avoirdupois. This implies water-free
substances and dried fruits and veg
etables are especially adapted for the
purpose. Of late the war department
has been experimenting with prod
ucts of this kind; it has found them
wholesome and in all respects desir-
able, and is likely to use them largely
in future years. -.
White potatoes, carrots and sweet
potatoes have been found particular
ly available for dessica ton. The
sweet potatoes are cut up into little
cubes, while the white potatoes and
carrots are sliced. When wanted for
use they have to be soaked in water
before cooking them; as sold, they
are supposed to be absolutely water
free. What a saving in weight and
bulk theyTrepresent will be realized
when it is understood that fresh white
potatoes contain so per cent. of water,
and fresh carrots 80 per cent.
Experiments have proved that the
drying process causes no loss of nutri-
ment, and that the product furnishes
a most valuable addition to the food
of people who are unable to get fresh
vegetables. The dessicated white po-
tatoes are as rich in muscle-forming
elements as the best wheat -four,
though consisting mainly of the
starchy material which is so useful as
fuel for the body machine. The same
thing may be said Of the carrots and
sweet potatoes; but a notable fact is
that dried eastern vegetables are rich
err in starch and poorer in muscle
forming material than those grown in
California.
These dried vegetables are sold I'M
bleached, as a rule, bleaching prepsra-
tions being bad for the digestion. !

Cast of Old Roman Tablet.

Boston Post.
The classical department of Harvard
University has recently received from TIA
IL Cast of very ancient inscription which
WAS excavated under the Roman Forum
near the so-caled black stone, where, ac-
cordlng to tradition, RomuluS WAS buried.
This is the oldest Latin inscription on
stone that has ever deem discovered, dat
ing back to the seventh century b. g. The
incripton is on stone pillar The upper
part is broken of and destroyed. This Is
supposed to have been done when The
q ,uls sacked Rome iu the fifth century.
The original was unearthed in June, 1899,
and this is the first fac simile imported to-
America.
Prof Ceci, of the University of Rome,
has made the following translation OF the
inscriptions: "Whoevpr wants 10 immediate
pregnant COWS he should do 1t 10y the
shrine. Pregnant SONS should be immo'
lated away from the shrine. The ritual
cakes used in sacrificing should be brought
to the rex sacrorum at the time of the full
moon. Whoever wants to immediate preg.
nant COWS or SONS, having obtained leave
from the rex sacrorum through the kaIator
must take tie auspices and present his
votve offering. The same rules must be
followed when sacrifices are performed at
the first quarter of the moon. Whoever
disregards the sacred laws concerning the
auspices and the votive offerings, let him
be sacred to Jupiter"
Many of the best German and Amerl-
can scholars doubt the accuracy of this
translation, and claim that 80 many words
and letters are obliterated that it is impos
sble to make any authentic translation.
The Harvard College library has also a
large and valuable collection of Nihilist
books and others representing extreme
liberal views Of Russian altlir including a
complete set of Tolstois works. These
books we're all published in Geneva, as
the publication of them is forbidden in
Russia.

A Forgotten Craft.

1t was probably known to nearly
every Roman citizen how the mortar
which cemented the stones of their
buildings was made-just as it is
known to the majority of people that
the principal ingredient of English
mortar is stree Sscrapings, says a Lon
don newspaper. But, the knowledge
being general, nobody wrote it down,
and in time, as the Romans shifted
their building upon slaves and foreign
ers, the recipe of their mortar was lost.
So far it has not been discovered,
though the secret of it would be i'm
mensely valuable, for the cement out
lasts the very stones which it joins.

found very few remains of animals which

THE VOICE OF VIRGINIA.

Commenting on the statement that op
position in the Constitutional Convention

that no such device will be engrafted upon
our suffrage plan, the Brunswick Gazette
says that if this is true the people of Vir-
ginia will have abundant cause for thanks
giving aud rejoicing. ''Such subterfuges, /"
adds our contemporary, 'are unworthy Of
the GLORIOUS traditions of this grand old
Commonwealth. They do not bear the
impress of craftsmanship and are not re.
sponslye to the wishes of the better and
more intelligent class Of Virginians."
We believe that the Brunswick Gazette
expresses the sentiment of the great body
of white men in this State. Virginia has

tation among Ststss which her people
would have her maintain. Virginia is a
