NIIHAU DEFINITELY LOCATED

established a station on Niihau and left
an observer there, and then returned to
Kauai where he established number
of stations with the intention of Sc
curing a series of triangulations. as
the distance apart of the two islands is
such that it was not thought the trian-
gulation could be accomplished with
out the aid of the heliOgraph. The
even PROV ed that the use nf the hello
graph was only incidentally of advan-
tage Difficulty was experienced in eX-
changing signals. The assistant on
Niihau was never able to make out DR..
AnleXander's signals, and DR.. AleXan-
der was only able to make out his as
sistant's signals once. But that once
was enough. 1t gave him the locality
of the station and then he was able to
make it out with his telescope. By
this means he made a series of triangu-
lations, and though the notes have not
been worked up yet, it is believed they
are sufficient for the purpose.

Niihau is tied to the remainder of the
group It's location is fixed. The
charts can now be corrected.
DR.. W. d. Alexander of the Coast
and Geodetic Survey returned from
Kauai this morning by the Mikahala,
having as he believes, secured sufficient
data from which to determine the exact
position and location of the small ISL
and of Niihau.
Some months ago DR.. Alexander was
notified by the Coast and GeOdetic Sur
vey, that the survey vessel Patterson
would be sent down here this winter to
Icarry on work in this group, and that
one of the things to be determined was
the exact location of Niihau. Later
he received word that the vessel could
not be sent here, and asking him to
proceed with the work as best he
could, without the aid of the vessel and
it's complement of officers, and the APP
pliances it carries. Accordingly DR..
Alexander took the field himself. He

was first thought that the regatta
sports would be held in the morning
but the officers in charge of the sports
stated positively this morning that the
regatta would be held in the after

that the baseball games will not be

Associated Press Cable to the Star.

There is general speculation among
the Territorial departments as to how
the transfer of government will be eff
fected on January 4, or a week from
next Monday, when the county act
goes into affect. A large proportion
of the appropriations for carrying on
the territorial bureaus will cease with
the end of this year. while there is
nothing in sight for the supervisors to
carry them on.
The bureau of water works is a sam
pie. It's appropriations for salaries,
etc, will cease at the end of the year.

and the supervisors will have to find

The probabilities are that there will
be no baseball this week at least, be-
tween the fleet teams and local clubs.
Ever since the first arrangements for
baseball games fell through, the men
on the fleet have been unable to make
satisfactory arrangements whereby the
time could be filled in with baseball
games.
1t had been planned to have the base
ball matches on Saturday afternoon.
There is little likelihood that such
games will be played however. The
Kentucky team which is the undis-
puted champion of the fleet will not it
is thought, be able to play as several
of the men will play on the football
team.

result is that every vessel will need

TO HAVE DEPOT.

It has now been definitely settled that Fl Paso is to have a UrIon de- pot, to be erected by the various -ai,, roads entering that city. Not only has it been definitely decided 10 build the depot, but the cost of the building has been determined upon. Final agreement was reached at g meailg of the representatives of the roads ,a- terested on Friday last when the Union depot company was organized. The roads interested are the Santa Fe, Southern Pacific, c. H & s. A, E. P. & x. E., and Fl Paso & Southwestern. The officers of the depot company are H. U. Nudge general manager of the Santa Fe, presidents c. P. Eddy pres ident of the Fl Paso & Northeastern, vice-president; L. s. Stewart of the First National bank Of Fl Paso, secre. tary and treasurer A building com mittee was selected to take charge oi all details incident to the construction of the depot. This committee is composed of E. B. Cushing of the c. H. & s. A, E. O. Faulker of the Santa Fe and s. J. Simmons of the Fl Paso & Southwestern. The Union depot Is 10 cost not less than S250,000. The construction of such a depot building in Fl Paso is but another evidence of the unbounded faith the railroads have in the future of that city. Fl Paso has made a wonderful growth during the past few years. caused by the cen. tering of so many important lines Of railroads al that point. Grea: -qachi. Uery depots have been established there because of the good facilities provided for reaching vast mineral country. With such railroad advan' tages 1t is not surprising that Fl Paso should grow. A few years ago El Paso merely had a speaking acquaint snce with the large volume of busi. ness that passed throughout that city from Mexico en route 10 Denver. Kan sas City and other eastern cities tc buy mining machinery and other sup plies. If Fl Paso continues to grow which it surely will. it will not b. long until practically all the trade iron Mexico will be handled there Thi: trade alone would be sufficient to sup port a much larger city than the pres ent Fl Paso, to say nothing of the in creasing trade from Arizona which !! assured.

Since he took his position, under appointment from President Roosevelt, many charges have been preferred against him It seems that Pat has almost wholly neg lected his social duties and knows ab- sclutely nothing of the rules of eti- Quette and has often shocked the smart set" both in Fl Paso and other places, by his appearance at important and swell" social functions. without the regulation "svaller tail'' dress suit, but be it said 10 the credit oi Pat that he has never went after a smuggIer without taking his gun along. The latest charged lodge against the Fl Paso collector comes from Mir.
