WILL START
ON MONDAY
Work Of Dredging
Pearl harbOr
Bar.

The first Of next week will see a hun
dred men, two suction dredges, a tug
boat. scows, and launches at work on
the dredging of the bar at the entrance
to Pearl Harbor. Cotton Brothers are
the work and will probably get through
with it in a hurry.
A big force of men is now getting the
two large suction dredges ready. These
dredges are at present lying between
the Railway wharf and the new Hack
field wharf. on Thursday Captain Par
ker will take the largest dredge down
to the bar and the other will follow
at the end of the week. Captain Par
ker's dredge has been undergoing re-
pairs for weeks. The ladder, which sup
ports the large suction pipe, has been
fitted with two large air-tight iron
floats to assist in supporting it's i'm
mense weight. All the machinery has
been put in the best of order. AS some
bad Kona storms are frequently en-
countered on the bar which cause the
waves to rise to great height the
dredger has been specially prepared to
encounter them. on deck, arouno the
engine room, water-tight barricade
of planks four inches thick has been
erected to keep the water out of the
machinery.
The Amy house boat which is to be
used as quarters FOR the regiment of
men who are to be employed on the
work has already beeh towed down to
Pearl Iarbor ana is cited up ready to
house the men. In this they viii have
every comfort. Each man will nave "a
bunk of his own so that he win not
have to turn in on quitting work into
the same bunk that a man who is to
work on the succeeding shift has just
turned out Of. The dIedges as now
equipped have no quarters on board for
anyone and it viii be relief for the
men to have a place to sleep away from
the noise of the heavy machinery. as
provided for by The use of the house
boat.
1t is anticipated that Cotton Broth
ers work at Pearl Harbor will be done
quickly as their dredges are specially
fitted up for the class of dredging that
will be encountered on the bar. The
firm of Clarke & Henry failed to carry
out the work at Pearl Harbor because
of their inability to use their clam shell
dredge for the work as the sand on the
bar simply sifted right through this
dredge with the water. Under Cotton
Brothers system the sand will be
first stirred up by a curious SHAPED
pillow and then sucked through the
pipes and run out on the scows which
will carry it far out to sea.

NEW LINE
STEAMERS
MAY STOP
Ships Will Make
New Voyage
Soon.

Information has been received here
that plans are being made whereby the
trip. of the Messageries Narratives
steamers, which now run from Mar
settles to Sydney, will be extended SO
as TO include stops at New Caledonia,
Tahiti and this port. the terminus of
the run being San Francisco. The deal
whereby this Is to be accomplished has
not been completed, but information in
the last mail leads to the conclusion
that the added run will be made, begin
ming very soon.
The contamination of these plans
would mean the bringing into monthly
communication with the outside world
the French possessions OF New Gale
donna. where there are being made ex-
tensive developments, and the colony at
Tahiti, while the prospective coming of
the cable here will make this an i'm
portant point in the run of the ship,
in addition to the trade which it is ex-
pected may be developed If the ships
direct from Marseilles should decide to
make this a port of call. The inten-
ton Is said to be the making of the
voyage one which could be completed
within two months time, and this
would mean the putting on the run of
eight steamers so that the interval be-
tween sailngs would be only four
weeks.
The Messageries Narratives divides
with the Compagnie Trans Atlantique
Generate the distinction of being the
principal French shipping line. Making
its home port Marseilles there ply out
of the Mediterranean many lines of
steamers, and 1t is said that under the
house flag of the line there are now
some sixty bottoms. The principal lines
of the company are to South America,
to Cape Town. by way of Madagascar,
to Yokohama by way of Chinese ports
and 10 Australia ports. 1t is the latter
line which will be simply extended to
take in the proposed new run If the
plans are accomplished.
On this run at present are four ships,
each of $500 tons, and they are models
of sailing craft, being in some ways
superior to the vessels of any line ply
ing the Pacific. The ships are Vile de
la Ciotat, Armand Behic, Australian
Polynesien. They are fitted in the best
style, have large staterooms with win
dows instead of ports on the maindecks
and according to travellers of both that
line and the p. d O. are in fitting
superior to the English line The ships
are differed by Naval men and the
routine is that which makes life aboard

Scarcity of Heavy Ripe Cattle.

At all leading markets there is a
noticeable want of good, heavy, ripe
cattle, says Drovers' Jounal. The de-
mand has been evident for some time,
and the supply does not seem to be
forthcoming. The situation is not
only being seriously felt in this coun-
try, but is reaching to foreign nations,
where the better class of live cattle
and meat products are being exported
Late press dispatches from Vienna in
dicate that Austria is destined to un-
dergo a meat famine similar to that
which is being experienced in Ger
many, and has been for some time
The possible difference is that the
German scarcity seems to include all
meats, while that in Austria is large
ly restricted to the higher grades and
will, at present, necessarily fall large
ly upon the upper classes. However,
is must be only matter of time when
the shortage will be felt all along the
line. 1t is notable that the scarcity
is due to last seasons failure of the
corn crop and the decreased supply of
live stock and high grade products
from abroad

Finished Products.

From Farmers Review: Much
complaint is heard as to the low prices
of poultry, dressed or alive. just
complaint in one sense, for the price
is low as compared with the prices of
other things, but there is a cause for
it and considerable of the cause could
be remedied by the ones who sell the
poultry. How? Did you ever notice
the poultry in the shops, either the
dressed product or the live poultry in
coops? Did it look appetizing? After
looking it over did you go away with
a strong appetite for chicken for din
ner? One day with another the stuff
exhibited in shops is decidedly the
reverse of appetizing, and the main
cause of the poor appearance is poor
stuff, poultry poor in flesh. Perhaps
if chicks were devoid of feathers there
would be fewer skinny things" on the
market, but anyone can tell whether
the poultry is fit to eat or not by the
weight of them.
Do you think if it were the rule
for hogs and cattle to go into market
in such flesh as poultry does that the
returns would be as good as they are
now?
Another great cause is the poor
shape in which they are sent to mar
ket. If dressed they have not been
properly bled, picked, cooled and
packed; and if alive they are sent in
heavy unsiehtly coops. too low, and
over-croTdea- They are mixed UP

Do Typhoid Germs Pass Through
Cows.

The Oregon experiment station
gives an account of experiments made
with various germs found in water.
During the experiment water impreg
mated with germs of different sorts
usually found in water were given to
the cows to drink, but no trace could
be found of them in the milk. Later
typhoid bacilli in the water were ad-
ministered, with only a trace of the
typhoid germs in the cultures made of
the milk. The results obtained by
this investigation are gratifying, in
asmuch as they are conclusive: First,
that a pure culture of typhoid bacilli
mixed with water and given to the
COW to drink did not pass into the
milk Second, that they did not pass
from the COW alive with the excreta;
third, that they did not pass from the
COW alive with the urine, and fourth,
that they were not taken into the
udder by capillary attraction through
the tear orifice.

New York women,s Clubs.

The New York Ladies' Club, now
nonexistent, was the most exclusive

was but $50, and the annual dues
amounted to $50. 1t costs $25 to join
Sorosis, while something like $33 will

Dairy Cattle In the United Kingdom.
The preliminary returns of the num-
ber of live stock in the United King
dom on June 4, 1902, are issued, and
show that the total head of cattle In
Great Britain was 7,918 less than
last year, while in Ireland there was
an increase of 10S, ,SS1, which gives
total reduction of 99,037, says the
Dairy World of London, England. The
milking herd in Great Britain was p
556,126, being 46,168 less than last
year, while in Ireland there was 1,510,-
7O1, being an increase of 8,21S, so
that the total reduction was only IT,
95O- The reported deficiency of about
100000 in the milking herd is there
fore very wide of the mark. 1t is
curious to note that while the
droughty summer of 1893 reduced the
milking herd of the United Kingdom
by SS,569, and all other cattle two
years old and over by 90,s11, or near
ly equal to the milking herd, the
droughty summer of last year reduced
the milking herd by only 1880, and
the cattle two years old and over by
59,512, or more than three times the
reduction of COWS and heifers. 1t
may be that the higher price of milk
last autumn was the factor which in
duced the farmer to keep his COWS in
preference to his other cattle. 1t was
not so with butter, for the price was
only farthing higher a pound than
in 1898.

Process Butter Sales Decreased.

1t is reported from various mar
kets that the effect of the recent legis-
lation regarding oleomargarine and
process butter has been to greatly
curtail the sale of both Process but
ter men declare that the effect has
been disastrous ON their business,
especially on the exportable surplus
of this butter. We think the great
mass of dairymen will not find much
fault with this result While the
maker of poor butter may not so
readily sell it as formerly, the max
er of good butter will not find pro-
cess butter taking his trade away by
means of an article that masquerades
as fresh-made creamery butter. The
present law merely prevents fraud,
