authorities to furnish them with power
at two and one-half cents a kilo-watt.
This is less than it costs the municipal
plant to make power and the authorf-
ties are closing a contract at this rate.
Already the single company above
named is furnishing more electric pow
err than any other water power COM
pany in the world except Niagara. A
company is now being formed to create
water power in the mountains of the
San Joaquin Valley, convert 1T into cleo
tricity and transmit it 140 miles to Los
Angeles All of this goes to show the
extreme cheapness of water power and
to draw attention to the fact that large
amounts of water power are now going
to waste on the Islands which can be
utilized to advantage for pumping wa
ter, thereby greatly reducing the now
high cost of irrigation. The Waianae
Plantation has for several years been
irrigating with this power and the La
haina Plantation is now installing sew
eral plants. If similar enterprise is
displayed by other pumping plaEta-
lions, it will, doubtless, result in the
saving of several hundred thousand
dollars year now expended for fuel.

did not depart from the realm of bal

accent The most ambitious effort was
an aria from "Pique Dame" by Tschat-
kowski, revealing the possibilities Tor
more serious effort and the range OF
voice that has not yet reached its fulI
breadth of tone. The higher notes OF
Miss Little's voice are hute-l1ke In

and power. Her lower range is well

RoSEBERY AND THE VICAR.
Satisfactory Answer Given the Noble
Lord by CIergymnn.

When Lord Rosebery is stopping at his
seat at Mentmore he is an excellent host
in a quiet way to his neighbors, more es-
pecially to the clergy of the district On
one occasion young vicar. but recently
appointed to his benefce was asked to
dinner. When the ladies had withdrawn
the vicar was somewhat embarrassed by
his hosts suddenly accosting him TO this
effect:
Il have just had occasion to visit two
of the largest and mos. beautiful
cathedrals What is the use or purpose
of such vast buildings, that are so rarely
filled. and that are so often in very small
cities? You come, Mr.. -, from ca
thedral town. Can you kindly solve the
problem"
After a moments hesitation the young
vicar replied: y have sometimes heard a
question asked by strangers on the roads
in this district: What is that vast and
beautiful house on the high ground yon-
der?' meaning your lOrdship's house of
Mentmore. The answer is: Why. that is
the seat of one Of the kings CHIEF mobiles
With such an answer people are well con

of the company thought he was annoyed

ITALY'S FORMER QUEEN
MAY VISIT AMERICA
Rome Dispatches State She
Will Come Here.
Marsherita's Reported Trip Did
Not Verify News.

Press cablegrams from Rome yesterday
stated that the Dowager Queen Margher-
ita of Italy intended to visit America in
the incognito of the Countess Stupinigi.
1t was said that she would visit the
Yellowstone National Park, Niagara
Falls, and go as far west as California.
At the Italian Embassy the report could
neither be denied nor affirmed yesterday.
Signor Emanuele Fronani, the second
secretary of the Legation, who Is in
charge in the absence of the Ambassador.
Signor des Planches, and his secretary,
said that no news had been received at
the Embassy.
Embassy Not Notified.
Signor Fronani said that there is a
Countess Stupinigi in Italy and pointed
out that it is hardly probable that the
Dowager Queen would travel under her
title. Continuing he said:
Everything is possible in these times;
therefore / should not be greatly sur
prised to learn that Queen Margherita

come to this country. | expect very soon
to hear that the monarchs themselves will
be coming over in the endeavor to
strengthen the bonds of friendship be-
tween their own countries and the United
States. | think, however, in view of the
solitary life the Dowager Queen has lived
since the assassination of her husband,
that it is hardly probable that she will
fall into the procession and come to
America"
The DOwnGcr Queen.
The Dowager Queen Margherita is of
Italian and German descent. She and
her husband, King Humbert, were noted
throughout Europe for their affection for
each other. The greater part of their
married life was spent at the Kings IA
vorite palace in Milan.
The King and Queen were the most
democratic rulers of the nineteenth CEN
tury. No citizen or common labOrer
was too humble to be denied bow and
d smile from them on their daily prone
nadcs through the city.
The murder OF King Humbert in August

Manilans All Catholics.

In reply to a question by Mr.. Patterson
as to the average intelligence OF the peo
pie, Governor Taft said it was impossible
to appreciate the ignorance and super
stition among those who did not speak
Spanish.
The difficulty which We find in the
Filipino people. and the difficulty which
will remain during the present generation
is the ease with which an educated Fill

There is normal school in Manila at

in Luzon and other islands.
There is great interest and enthusiasm
on the part of Filipino teachers in study
ing English and preparing for better sal

THE Jesuits have a very large school
in Manila.
The Washington times., 1902-02-02

Mr.. Taft-"They are teaching the Fill
pino children English and the rudiments-
reading, writing, and arithmetic.
Il had supposed that it was necessary
that our teachers should know Spanish
or some OF the dialects of the islands,
but l think they get along better without
such knowledge.
There are between 900 and 900 towns
in the islands, and there are American
teachers in less than half of them-in
255 garrisoned and 200 ungarrisoned
towns.
