D. r. Kerr, Hrebiteef.

1t is only four years since H. L. Kerr,
the architect, located here. but in that
time he has designed many business
blocks and been identified with the pro-
motion of new and important indus
tries, the most notable one being the
manufacture Of Honolulu brick, which
is now being extensively carried on.
Perhaps the best known of his build
ings. on account Of its location, is the
two-story brick erected by the Hawaii
an Electric Co., and occupied by their
general offices, store and shop. Has a
frontage of SO feet on King street and
81 feet on Merchant street, with a
depth of 13s feet. The King street
front is finely fitted up for the offices.
Another handsome building is the one
just erected for Frank Hustace on
Beretania street. next the Progress
Beretania street and a depth of 105
feet. It contains two stores with base.
ments, two rear warehouse rooms and
there are sixteen Office rooms on the
second floor. The front is of yellow
pressed brick with terra Gotta trim
nings.
a large block, from plans by Mr.
Kerr, is that of Y. min on the corner
of King and Maunakea streets. This
contains sixteen stores on the first floor,
with a basement for each ana sixteen
store rooms on the second floor. The
building has a frontage of A33 feet on
King street and 1S3 feet on Maunakea
street, the stores having a depth of 30
feer.

Oil as 3uel.
BIZ IORRlk 4. ThURSION.
PPRoxIMATELY 100000 tons Of


" coal per annum are being con-
stunned in Hawaii; the. bulk Of it for
pumping water for irrigating cane.
The cost delivered at the pumps ap-
proximates so a ton, or an annual ex-
penditure of s., oo0, 600. This is equal
to per cent on over s33, 000, 000. How
to reduce this enormous expense is OF
vital interest to the Hawaiian sugar
industry.
Much has been written about crude

the subject has been difficult TO OBJ

civil engineers of San Franeisco;. Mr..
W. s. Miller, Pacific Coast manager Of
the Standard Oil Company: Mr.. John
Baker, manager of Union OIL Compa-
ny; also a report of the California
State Mining Bureau.
A number of questions present them
selves to those who are considering the
aGvisability of adopting oil as fuel
The more important OF these questions
ale:
1. Is the supply of oil permanent?
2. What is its fuel value relative to
ccal? -
2. What quality of oil is best for ISL
and purposes?e ~
4. What changes and additions are
necessary to adapt a coal burning. 70
an Oil burning furnace. and what do
they cost?
5. What is a fair price for. oil; what
price can be depended upon; what will
the saving be?

Enormous deposits of crude oil, or
petroleum, have recently been found IN
Wyoming and Texas, but the cost OK

from consideration, than California.
Oil wells have existed in California
since 1855. when unsuccessful attempts
were made to refine il. c.,

took place in 1864 and 1865, at which
time great finds were made in Penn

The causes for failure at that time
were that the appliances for boring
wells to anything but q shallow depth
were crude and inefficient; that the
