TO REMODEL
A CHURCH.

Delaware Avenue Baptist Church
OF which the Rev. John Shape is
pastor, is soon to undergo a change
that will make it one Of the pretti-
est churches i'll Wilmington. Re-
Gently the entire debt of the
church was paid Oft, much to the
delight of the congregation, and
now the Improvements are to be
made.
Tonight the revival services
will be held in the main auditorium
for the last time until Easter The
pastor will delivera sermon on "A
Safe Trust and G. A. Cline will

On Tuesday scattolding will be
erected in the church, preparatory
to having the walls scraped and
frescoed The contract for this
work was given Il short time ago
to Roland Cardwell. In addition
the old gas lights will be taken out
and the church equipped with
electric lights. About the ceiling
will be placed clusters of eight
lamps and between each window.
on the walls will be three lamps
with golden fixtures. The bap-
tistry will be changed from clos.
ed to an open one, and the pastor
and congregation are hoping that
at the opening meeting there will
be large number to take the
initial plunge and enroll their
with those Of the communicants
Of Delaware Avenue Baptist
Church. The entire work is ex-
pected to take up the time be-
tween now and Easter, and it is
the intention to have on that day a
great revival meeting and dedi-
cation. In the meantime the daily
there will be at least twenty-five.
There have been many others who
have asked for prayers and who
have been converted. With these
gratifying results the pastor is well
pleased.
Lately the exterior of the church
has been painted, and with the
improvements to the intt4ior will
cost about $4,000 nearly all OF
which has been pledged. The
women of the church expect 1oss

hall on the lower floor, and the
work which has been going on
since the first Of the year will be

INTERVIEWER INTERESTS OF
HAWAII AND CALIFORNIA

The interests of california and Ha-
wall are so close and intimate that
commercially Hawaii is an integral
part of California.
San Francisco alone, is exporting to
Hawaii at the rate of $1,000, 900 a month,
or $4,000 day in raw material and
merchandise.
San Francisco's exports to Hawaii are
twice as large as to China; three times
as large as to Japan, and ten times
greater than to British Columbia.
Imports to San Francisco from Ha-
waii are larger than from any foreign
country, and larger than the exports
to Hawaii.
Hawaii's exports of sugar during 1901
were 100000 tons. For 1902 they will be
about the same. For 1903 they will be
100000 tons. and by 1906 they should
amount to 100000 tons. With capital
for development, in a few years they
viii amount to 100000 tons per annum.
For every ton of sugar produced in
Hawaii, approximately ton of sup
plies is consumed. The overwhelming
bulk of these supplies comes from Cali
fornia. Every pound of hay. grain,
-four and lime and innumerable other
articles, and every foot of lumber con-
sumed in Hawaii come from the Pacific
coast--chiely from San Francisco.
Hawaiian fuel has heretofore been
coal from Australia chiefly. Within a
year this will be entirely superseded
with fuel oil from ~lAIornia, with a
saving of thirty-five per cent to fifty
per cent in cost. Contracts have al
ready been signed for the delivery of
600 barrels of fuel oil per annum
to Hawaii, and within year the con-
sumption will be 1.0Uu,OOO barrels per
annum. All of this oil will be tran
sported in ships built or now building
in San Francisco.
During 1891, 472 deep sea sailing yes
sells entered San Francisco. OF these
231 came from Hawaii. The next larg-
est number were fifty-nine from Aus
tralia; thirty-six from Great Britain;
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1902-09-12

twenty-six from Chile, and nineteen
from Mexico.
If the continents of Europe, Asia,
Africa and South America and the Jap
anese Empire were wiped off the map
by CONFUSION of nature, the loss to
San Francisco would be no greater than
would be the loss of the Hawaiian
trade, for San Francisco exports to Ha-
wall as much as to all the above named
countries combined
The development of Hawaii has only
begun. 1t has population of 10000. It
will as easily support 100000. The
United States Government is now de-
veloping Pearl Harbor and establishing
naval station, which will cost IS. 00O-
600. This win also open to commerce
within the year the finest harbor in the
Pacific. The last Congress appropriate
ed 100000 for military station and
Notifications at Honolulu
The cable from Honolulu to San
Francisco will be in operation in
November next.
The Isthmian Canal will be complet-
ed within a few years. Each of these
viii tend to develop Hawaii and every
dollar of such development is as valu-
able commercially, to California, as
though it took place WITHIN our borders,
for supplies of all kinds with which
to carry on such development must
come from California Hawaiian de-
velopment is even more valuable to
California than development at home,
for dollar produces much greater re-
suits there than here. For example,
with sugar at its normal price, $500
ton, and wheat at seventy-five cents
a bushel. the Eva Sugar Plantation in
Hawaii with 5000 acres of cane land
would produce a gross return equal in
money value to the product of $4,000
acres of wheat land, yielding twenty
bushels per acre.
Hawaii is now CALIFORNIA; best GUS
toner. 1t has developed so far with
out special effort or assistance from
abroad. In no other quarter can Cali
fornia so speedily and efficiently in
crease her foreign commerce and pros

the swell millinery establishments of
Paris, Berlin, London and New York.
The fifty or more Japanese on the ISL
and have become experts in the killing
of birds and according to Mr.. Bryan
one of their number is said to be the
quickest man at skinning the birds
known in that part of the world.
-Taxidermy is a past art on marcus.
Thousands of young birds are being
KILLED. These are skinned and cleaned
and thus with feathers, wings and
heads they are prepared for shipment
to Japan whence in turn they are sent
to the fashionable marts of the world
to adorn women's headgear. The older
birds are killed for the large feathers
The japanese are making great in
roads on the birds of Marcus and kill
them as fast as they can find them.
Mr.. Bryan says the heat on Marcus
is somewhat exasperating and he would
not term it an ideal place for sum-
mer resort. The island is comparative
ly low and the humid air hovers close
to it. The accommodations there now
are nothing to call comfortable, but
they are protection against the ele-
ments.

beach, ranging from thirty-five feet to
seventy feet at the highest elevation.
Most of the island is heavily wooded,
cocoanuts comprising a large portion
of the forest. There is a slight de-
preston in the center. Sand and coral
form the top covering of the island.
There are irregular open spaces in the
thickly wooded parts but generally the
top covering is OF sand and coral. Mr.
Bryan states that the island is of
coral formation and the drift of the
ocean has caught upon this base until
the present island has taken form.
On the south side are quarters of the
japanese fishermen and the marine
guard under Lieu. H. Akinote was sta
toned there. Back of LIS camp on
the western side the Investigations of
Mr.. Bryan were conducted while OBJ
tanning samples of guano and rock
phosphate.
What seemed to strike Mr.. Bryan as
being one of the most interesting fea-
lures of Marcus Island was the indus
try which the Japanese have estab-
lished. This is the killing of the birds
and preserving the skins and feathers

government, for cable station and
these should not be overlooked.
In map which Mr.. Bryan made of
the island, taken from copious notes
and scientific observations, he has Civ
en- the first authentic idea of what the
island consists, its physical character
istics and area. The notes were taken
during Mr.. Bryan's very short stay on
the island under the surveillance of the
Japanese marines, and the map was
drawn on board the Whalen with or
binary ink and upon common yellow
paper. When it was finished piece of
cheese cloth was mucilaged to the back
Marcus Island is almost triangular
in shape and has an area of $50 acres.
1t lies in longitude 154 East, latitude
twentyfour degrees fourteen minutes
North. Surrounding the island is a
fringe of coral reef. The Whalen was
able to come in close to the island ex-
periencing no danger until the actual
fringe was met. Close to the reef the
depth ranges from eight to twelve
fathoms. Between the reef and the
shore line the water is deep. The shore
consists largely of coral shingle The

MARINE COOLEY
WAS SLASHED

About II O'Clock on Wednesday night
near the waterfront two marines from
the naval transport Solace, somewhat
overburdened with fire water, engaged
in an alteration over matter which
probably neither one remembered when
sober, and the affair ended in one
named Cooley being cut across the
face. A police officer was attracted by
the tumult but on arrival at the bat
tle-ground found only Cooley whose
face was covered with blood. He seem
ed to be dangerously wounded and the
officer sent in a call for the patrol
wagon. He was taken to the hospital
where cash extending from his nose
to his left cheek-bone was dressed.
Cooley was still pretty drunk despite
his wound and he raised such a. COM
motion in the hospital that the authori-
ties had to send him down to the Police
Station. Yesterday morning when he
awoke and found his face covered with
court plaster he tore it off Indignantly
remarking that that was no way to de-
face the countenance of a marine.
Turnkey Melanphy was aghast at the
action but the wound was not large
enough to make any trouble. When
asked by Captain Harry Flint who his
assailant was Cooley replied that he
didn't know and added that even if he
did know he would not peach" on him.
Flint took the man aboard the solace

KEEP YOUR HEAD UNCOVERED.

The Constant Wearing of a Hat Prop
agates Dandruff Germs.
There are many men who wear their
hats practically all the time when
awake, and are blessed with a heavy
shock of hair; yet if the scalps of these
same men once became infested with
dandrun germs, the parasites would
multiply all the quicker for lack of air.
Badness would ensue as the final re-
suit. Newbro's Herpicide kills these
germs and stimulates unhealthy hair
to abundant growth. Herpicide is a
pleasant hair dressing as well as a
dandruff cure and contains not an atom
of injurious substances.
