hard to see how such a charge could
be made for such a small camera as
a quarter-plare would be. 1t would
take a photograph only 3HX44
inches, and the half-plate would be
only 4l4X6la inches.
Counting gold as worth $50 an
ounce and the lens of the camera at
500, the camera would have to weigh
nearly 500 ounces to have $4,000
worth of gold in it. That is, it would
have 10 weigh more than 30 pounds
avoirdupois. This is an absurdity.
Carving, jewels, engravings and the
height of ornamentation might make
a camera cost as much as 1O,50O, but
you couldn't prove it by a quarter
plate negative"
In general, the cost of a camera is
in the lens. For a sneak thief there
is scarcely a more inviting field than
a first-claSs photographers studio.
While men lock up bartenders in the
ice box to raid a saloon cash register
with S6.S5 in it, a sneak thief easily
might unscrew a $500 portrait lens
from a camera and sneak out with
the booty in his coat pocket. For a
costly camera the lens usually costs
ten times as much as the box, and it
has not a hundredth part of the bulk.
The largest lens ever made for
camera was nearly nine inches in
diameter, was ten inches long, and
| lens and metal casing weighed 40
pounds. This lens, made under the
most trying circumstances, cost So
| 600, and was designed for a plate
4xs feet. The first photograph taken
/ through it was a life size photograph
/ of DR.. John Alexander DOwie, short
/ lv before he was reincarnated into
Elijah III.
The plate which registered this
Counterfeit presentment" of Elijah
I cost 500. and it cost at least five
dollars to develop and fix the mega
tive, the prints from it costing about
| three dollars each.
The unusual size of the lens for
this camera necessitated a camera
box 4xs feet and a focal adjustment
of IS feet. IN making the lens 1t
was difficult to find glass sufficiently
| large and free from flaws, air bub-
bles. and "striae." When one glass
had been cut and adjusted it had to
be thrown out because of one of
those almost intangible blemishes
termed striae.
In a lens of ordinary size the de-
riation of one-thousandth of an inch
in its thickness will make it useless
for photography, causing 1t to dis
tort images. Testing these lenses
grinding and polishing and fitting
. them and correcting them to hairs
breadths is the work Of the human
hand and eye, but so accurately are
these experts trained that IN a box
of a dozen lenses of the same style
it is the boast OF the manufacturers
: that no man needs search to find
best one.

Hawaii will remain territory. 1t re-
marks:
Delegate Wilcox, of Hawaii, who
is enthusiastically advocating state
hood for the territory of Hawaii, is
wasting his time. Hawaii is not fit to
become a state, and it will be a long
time, if ever, before it viii be so fit
ted. There is no evidence whatever
to show that Hawaii would be better
off as a state than as a territory,
while its expenses would be greatly
increased.
The talk of uniting Hawaii with
California meets with no favor either
in Hawaii or in California, and is chi
merical. Congress would give no con-
sideration to such a proposition. Tn
der the decision of the United States
supreme court, Hawaii needs no
statehood, and, like all our other pos
sessions. can be well governed under
a territorial form of government
such as it now has.
"As to complaints about the al
legged ignorance and corruption of its
legislature, they count for nothing
in view Of what some of our state
legislatures do, particularly that of
Pennsylvania. No territorial legisla-
ture viii probably ever exhibit such
rottenness as has characterized the
Pennsylvania Legislature, or that Of
Montana, and fortunately no terri
torial legislature would have the
power to rob the people of the terri
tory in the way the Pennsylvania leg
islature has robbed the people of this
state"

prise to his friends in the church, as
it had been expected in ecclesias teal
circles that Rome would take such ac-
ton.
Rev. p. J. Muldoon has been prom
inently before the Catholic public for
the last ten years Born at Comm-
bia, Cal, in 1853, his elementary edu-
cation was received in the schools of
that town. At the age of Il years he
was batrieuiated at the collegiate
school of St. Mary's, Louisville.
Graduating from that institution, he
pursued his studies for the priest
hood at st. Mary's seminary, Balti-
more. He completed his course when
20 years old and was ordained and ad-
mitted to the priesthood.
His first assignment was as assist
ant TO Father Henneberry, the pastor
of St. Plus church, Chicago. There
the young clergyman began to assert
himself and make his activity felt,
first in the affairs of the parish and
then of the archdiocese.
His ability as d director was recog-
nized early and he was appointed
chancellor of the archdiocese of Chi
cago. During the worlds fair he at
tracted much attention as secretary
of the Catholic exhibition, which re-
ceived such favorable recognition. In
1895 he resigned the chancellOrship
TO become the pastor Of st. Charles
Borromeo church, Twelfth and Cy-
press streets.

SULTAN OF MOROCCO.
Young African Ruler Has Many
EXtraVagant Fads.
Pays $4,000 for Two Cameras with
which to Photograph His Wives
Lenses Are Set in solid
Gold Instead of Brass

News that the sultan of Morocco
has bought two cameras, one quar-
template and one half-plate, costing
SlO,50O and S4,5OO, respectively, is re-
garded by camera experts Is sug-
gesting that the sultan of Morocco
is a good deal more fond of spending
money than is the sultan of Turkey.
1t is doubted if he has any prettier
harem than has the Turkish sultan.
and if he has it is argued by experts
in camera goods that he could get
just as good a picture of his favor
ties with a S1O0 machine.
According TO the story of the sui
tan's purchases in London all the
metal work of the quarter-plate
camera is of solid gold, even to the
screws and hinges, every piece bear
ing the British hall mark It's total
weight is $50 ounces. The half-plate
instrument is of silver, with finest of
mountings.
DR.. William H. Knapp, of Chicago,
representing the manufacturers who
made the lenses for the sultan's
cameras, says in effect that the sui
tan paid through the nose for what
he got, so far as pictures are con-
ceTned.
For such cameras we couldn't
make a lens that would cost more
than $780," said DR.. Knapp to a Chi
cago Tribune reporter. The bes.
framework for a lens is brass and
one set IN gold would be less adapt
able in photography. We make the
best quarter-plate lens for ST., with
$40 more added for a shutter. The
sultan hasn't got anything better,
though it may be set in solid gold.
But even in solid gold, wherever
the metal could be worked in, it is

Col. Stowe points out that the consul
of Spain there gets 1900 more than
the salary of the American consul gem
eraI. the Dutch consul $1,000 more, the
French, s., 800 more. and the German,
81, 900 more, and this in the face of the
fact that American trade interests in
Cape Colony are more extensive and
important than those of any other
country. In addition TO their salaries,
some foreign consular officers at Cape
Town are furnished with residences,
rent free, while the American consul
general pays his own rent.
Col. Stowe remarks that it cost him
nearly a years salary, travelling ex-
penses not being allowed TO the United
States consular officers, to bring his
family of three from the United States
to Cape Town and back TO the United
States. When he came home recent
lv on leave Of absence he was obliged TO
leave his family here, because il cost

Col. Stoves legal residence is Kan
sas City, Mo. He has been consul gen
eral at Cape Tswn since January 10,
1895.

THE FATE OF HAWAII
Politicians and Statesmen Are Much
Interested in It.
Natives Want Statehood or Annexa-
tiOn TO CalifOrnia-OthersT Think
Territorial Government Is
Good Enough.

While Delegate Wilcox. of Hawaii,
is urging that the archipelago (now
a territory be admitted TO the union
as a state, the recommendation is
heard in some quarters that the is
lands be annexed TO California. The
Honolulu Sunday Volcano. for exam
pie, says:
The Volcano, in advocating the an
nexatiOn of Hawaii to California,
does so with the most patriotic mo-
tives. The Hawaii of to-day is carry
ing all of its eggs to market in one
basket. We are raising two products
sugar and children. The contract
labor laws having been abolished,
children are hardly a commodity of
commerce. Hawaii under present
conditions to be prosperous must have
a stable market for it's sugar. The
market for Hawaiian sugar is Amer
lea. Under the Downes decision of
the United States supreme court con-
gress has the power to levy a duty on
any or all goods shipped from a ter
do not believe that congress will ever
place a duty upon Hawaiian sugar.
But, believing this, would it not be
presumptuous to say that congress
never will do it? There is No telling
what an Hawaiian legislature or an
American congress will do.
'Is it not best to be safe in this
matter? Haven't the people of Ha-
waii had enough dearly purchased ex-
perience in assessment sugar stocks
without investing in an assessment
government. By becoming a part of
California, Hawaii would be forever
free from a tax on it's sugar. What a
strong argument this is for annex
alton to the Golden State!"
The semi-official Philadelphia Press,
however, expresses its belief that

COL. STOWE RESIGNS.
United states Consul General at Cape
Town Unable to Live on the
Salary Allowed.

The resignation of James G. Stowe
from the office OF consul general Of the
United States at Capt Town, Cape Col
onv. has been received at the state de-
partment. Col. Stowe says the salary
or S.. 600 is not sufficient for his ex-
penses. and ne is, therefore, compelled
TO leave the consular service.
Cape Town, he explains, is the most
expensive place in the world, but the
salary is not as large as that of some
consuls at posts where living is cheap.
Other governments recognize this, and

Exquisitely carved treasure jars

has uncovered a large portion of the
palace area. BY an extraordinary

were traces of a mighty c0nfagration.
Burnt beams and charred wooden col
umus lay within the rooms and corri-
dOrs. There was here no gradual
decay.
On the floor of one of the magazines
were found huge store or treasure
Jars. One of these, found in a small.
separate chamber, which is shown in
the Illustration, was nearly five feet
81 height Only few Of the jars were
opened. They proved to be empty.
The jar was profuSely ornamented
with decorative designs, and the col
ors were almost as brilliant as when
first laid down, over 5000 years be-
fore. Excavations are still in prog
ress in the palace grounds. and addi-
tional finds will undoubtedly be
brought TO light in the near future.

Lightning Strikes Feathers.

under which delusiOn many people
scary about lightning climb under

square of a country town and struck
a rooster which was running across
the opening. 1t hit him square on the
head, and, of course, killed him in

RARE ART TREASURES.
EIgufsfteIy Carved Jars UneaFthed
in the Ruins of an Ancient
Palace in Crete.

The recent unearthing by Mr..
Arthur Evans of the famous palace OF
King Minos, with its mysterious laby-
rinth and chambers, on the ancient
Eite Of Knossos. in the island Of Crete,
has brought to light some wonderful
art treasures. King Minos, it viii be
remembered, was the wise raler and
inspired Iawmaker. He is styled the
Cretan Moses, who every nine years
repaired to the cave Of Zeus and re-
ceiyed from the God of the Mountains
the laws for his people.

finds, SAYS the New York Herald, is

length. This height is necessary to
admit the passage of ships through

This aerial span was preferred TO

BY What Test:

We see variety Of opinions as to the abili-
ty OF the Filipino to govern himself, or rather
for the Inhabitants OF the Philippine Islands
to set up state government. Some Of our
people believe that they are now eminently
qualified for setting up good governm ent for
themselves. Others think less favorable Of the
Intelligence and fitness Of the citizens OF the
islands for selfgovernment Others, again
think the Filipino may be something like
negro who needs little help In the matter Of
governing country. The Indians who inhab-
tied this country more than a hundred years
ago. were deemed incapable of self.govern-
ment Our forefathers were obliging. and
volunteered to help them. AS a result we
have good government today.
We are not informed by what test the Fill
pinos are judged In the matter Of ability for
conducting a government. They live in a
tropical country, and we suppose the habit Of
shutting the door, or leaving 1t open, cuts no
ice with them.
In q country like this, the test OF civili.
cation rests on the fact OF q mans habit Of
shutting the door or leaving 1t open on enter
ing house when the atmosphere is at the
freezing point. Judging by this test, large
number Of Americans would be disfranchised
in New York. Men who walk into heated
room, while the temperature outside is at the
freezing point, and leave the door open after
them. might he required to surrender their
registration tickets-if they lived In Alaska.
A citizen of Alaska who doesn't know enough
to shut the door after he enters q warm room
on a cold day, should have his citizenship
transferred 10 warm country, or else he
should be given q nice warm seat on the
stove.
