{. P. DOLE TALKS
OF CABLE CHANGES

1.-THE Pacific Gable has put the people
of Hawaii in touch with the rest of the
world" said Attorney General L. p.
Dole of Hawaii, at the White House
offices today. General Dole is a cousin
an extended tour of the United States,
having sailed from the Islands nearly
two months ago. He was introduced
to the President by Senator Foster of
Washington, who also presented Ar
thur C. Gehr of Honolulu and S. NJ.
Bruce of New Whatcom, Wash.
"Since' the completion of the cable"
continued General Dole, I'VE have en-
joyed a new participation in world af-
fairs. Think of having had to wait a
week for news! When President Nc
Kinley was shot the news was brought
to us with reports on his condition for
the first few days after the affair had
taken place. Then there was a week
intervening De1Ore the next steamer
arrived. The report was so reassuring
that we began celebration and plan
ned services of thanksgiving for the
Presidents remarkable recovery from
the wound. When the next steamer
came it brought news of Mr.. McKin-
ley's death and funeral.
when King Edward was about to be
crowned the English people in Hawaii
got up a monster celebration. News by
steamer told all of the late prepara-
tions for the coronation, and on the
appointed date Hawaii celebrated in
royal fashion. When the next steamer
came it brought the unexpected tidings
that the King was desperately i'll and
had not been crowned. Since then We
have not been holding celebrations
until assured that plans elsewhere had
been realized in full" = Washington

ROAD AROUND
THE BIG ISLAND

It is now possible for one to take a
team and drive completely around the
Island of Hawaii. the great work of
building the belt road having been
completed last week. The broken
spots, being some four miles at Huehue
or Maguire's, and across on the Low
contract, have been finished.
The road around the Island of Ha-
wall is one of the greatest of the
projects which has been undertaken by
the government. and gives to the pros
pective counties of that island great
start in life. Altogether, the drive
from Hilo by way of the Volcano and
Kona, through Waimea and the Hama
kua coast, is 211 miles long, and while
there is stretch where the road is not
of the best. still it Is possible to make
the trip for the entire distance by car
riage.
The distances on such a ride would
be as follows: From Hilo to the Vol
cano, SO miles; Honaupo, 80; to Keala-
kekua Bay, 46; to Kailua, 49, to Puua-
nalulu mountain, II; to Waimea, l6;
to Kukuihaele, 10; to Ookala, 20; to
Laupahoehoe. 8; to Hilo, %. There are
some stretches of bad road In this
length. For instance, the road from
the Volcano to Honaupo is not good,
but il is to he improved the men being
at work upon il. From Waimea to
Kukuihaele the road is steep and bad,
but there is being constructed a road
from Waimea TO Honokaa which viii

COUNTY BILL IS
READY FOR REPORT

The House Committee on County Bill
should be able to close up its report
today and present II to the House i'm
mediately. The work of consideration
has been finished and the amendments
to the bin are neither many nor radl-
cal.
AS the amended bill now stands the
alterations which are momentous are
four in number. These are the incor-
poration of the Kauai school bill, as in
troduced into the House as u supple
mental act by Kelinoi, into the County
bill to replace the provision for Ter
ritorial control of the Department of
Public instruction, the provision plac-
ing district magistrates and road boards
visors and providing that the super
visOrs are to be elected from districts
or wards. These districts are variously
divided. On this island for instance
the district east of Nuuanu street Is
given three supervisors, from Nuuanu
street to Moanalua two, and the outer
districts two on Maui Waikiki has
two and each OF the other districts one,
The county of West Hawaii is wiped
out and its name made Kaniaupuni,
with Hamakua substituted for Kau, in
the constituency, and the county seat
placed at Waimea.
The other changes are minor ones and
will not cause fights on the floor,
though the school matter and the
alteration In the district magistrates
and road boards may raise some little
discussion and cause division of the
vote The House may not attempt to
consider the bill until that of the SEN
ate has been sent down, so that there
may be speedy action had.
The committee which has been in
vestlgatIng the kalihi Detention Camp
win report this morning favoring the
OF the Vida bill providing
for the erection OF an almshouse from
the camp. In committee of the whole
house, as there are several opinions as
TO the proper future of the camp,
The committee which is investigating
the Rapid Transit Company will meet
this morning to hear the evidence OF I

MEASUREMENT OF WATER IN
PAUOA VALLEY.
Honolulu, H. T., Nov. 18th, 1870.

Honolulu, II. r., Nov. 18th, 1902.
To Whom it May Concerns:
Measurement taken at the mouth OF
two perpetual streams, the source of
which are two springs at an elevation
of between $50 and 600 feet, situated in
Pauoa Valley, about two miles mauka
of the terminus of the Pacific Heights
Railroad. These springs are not af-
fected by a lack of rainfall, give an out
put of S5992O gallons in "a hours, and
by developing could be increased by
conservative estimate to ten times this
amount.
Measurement taken from stream
at an elevation of $50 feet in the same
valley, but lower down, the source of
which stream is several small Springs,
gives an output of 25S,7OO gallons per
"a hours.
These springs are all located in Pau
GA Valley, which is a natural water
shed and would be valuable reservoir
site for the Government.

.ITlNE RARY OF
ROOSEVELT'S TRIP

The itinerary of President Roose-
yelt's Western trip has been published,
and IL does not include visit to Hoo
nolulu. According to the schedule as
It is given out the Presidents special
will pull out. from Washington on
April 1.
The first ten days will be spent in a
speechmaking tour, which will begin
at Chicago. The first stop Of import
ance will be at Milwaukee. This
was to have been the last place the
President would visit on his trip last
autumn II the tour had not come to an
untimely end at Indianapolis.
The party will traverse Wisconsin,
part of Iowa, Minnesota, North and
South Dakota, Nebraska, Montana and
Wyoming.
At Cinnabar the train will be side
tracked and the President and Secre-
tary of War Root, leaving all other
members of the party behind, will en-
ter Yellowstone park under an escort
of cavalry officers having charge of the
park by Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Root,
who are seeking absolute rest. There
prohibits the carrying of arms by
sportsmen in the national park. 1t
is hardly likely that the President will
even get any trout fishing, as the sea-
son will not be far enough advanced
for that.
Leaving Yellowstone and boarding
the train once more about April 20, the
speechmaking journey will be resumed
and the President will traverse Ne
braska and parts of Kansas, Missouri,
Illinois and Indiana, arriving at St.
Louis just before April &c. Here the
President will participate in the dedi
cation of the worlds fair buildings. ,
and on the night of April 80 he will
leave over the Atchison road through ,
Kansas to Colorado. After seeing con-
of that state, he will go over
the Southern Pacific through New
Mexico and Arizona.
The President will start through CAL
ifornia from the south. He will spend
two or three days in Yosemite Park,
visit San Francisco, Sacramento and
other cities and take run into Nevada
and Utah.
Returning to San Francisco, he will
proceed north through Oregon and
stopping to attend the
exposition in Portland, which cele
orates the Lewis and Clarke expedition.
The President will cross the Rockies
by another route and traverse the
Territory that he will not touch on his
way West. The entire trip will con-
sumo more than two months.

ter from your springs in Pauoa Valley
allow me to state that after personal
inspection of the springs and their sur
roundings, an examination of speci-
mems of water taken from them and
more especially after reading the re-
port of Mr.. e. c. Shorey and his
analysis of the water, l take pleasure
in recommending the water as an I'M

EXTRACT FROM ANALYSIS OF
WATER FROM PAUOA VALLEY.
SAMPLES TAKEN FEBRUARY
2S. 1903 BY E. C. SHOREY-ANAL-
YSIS MADE FOR MIR: C. w.
BOOTH.
The Nuuanu water while it contains
Pauoa, contains large amount of
albuminoid ammonia and this in con-
nection with the presence of nitrites
indicates rather serious organic con-
tamination.
1t should be said in this connection
that water from Nuuanu valley varies
greatly according to the amount of
rainfall, surface wash, etc.
The samples from Beretania street
and Palama both contain larger
amount of solid matter in solution than
case more than one-half is made up
of chlorides.
The Interpretation of the analysis of
the two samples from Pauoa may be
stated as follows:
/. The waters are organically as pure
as it is possible for natural water to be.
9 They contains less mineral matter
than the artesian waters here, and this
mineral matter is less Objectionable in
quality than that usually present In ar
tesian water.
8. The difference between the two
samples is slight and is such as can
be accounted for by difference in To-
cation and surroundings of the springs.
on comparison of these two samples
of water with the two present sources
of supply for the city viz: artesian wa
ter and storage reservoirs of rain wa
that so far as quality goes the Pauoa
water examined is much superior to
either.
1t is superior to artesian water be-
cause the mineral matter is less and
is made up largely of carbonates in
place of the more Objectionable chic
rides and sulphates common in arte-
sian water.
1t is superior to Nuuanu Valley or
any storage water because free from
organic impurities, 1t is true that FL
tration OF Nuuanu water will greatly
improve it and the value of filtra-
ton plant for that water so long as 1t
is used cannot be overestimated; but 1t
is much better to use If possible wa
ter that does not require fltering. Wa
ter filtration will render tit for use a
water which could not otherwise be
used, but such filtration does not re-
move absolutely all germs, e. 6.
typhoid, and a filtered surface water
can never be absolutely safe as regards
water carried diseases. while spring
water with the source properly pro-
tected Is so.

Electrifying Railroads.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.

rom the brOOkiyu F'agle.
The enormous advantages accruing to the
public through the electrifying of the eie-
va tied systems in New York city are 100
well known to require special comment
here. but there is excuse for at least Il
passing reference to the extension of the
same principle on the part of the New YORK
Central railroad in regard to its general
service. This company will soon equip
most or all. of its suburban trains with
motor cars which will be operated precisely
as the motor cars on the elevated roads are
operated at present This change will make
for cleanliness and greater comfort ns
travel. even If it does not insure greater
speed. But the New York Central proposes
to do more than to equip its suburban
trains with electricity; 1t will apply this
motive power to passenger traffic on the
longer runs. To accomplish this contract
has been given for the building OF thirty
electric locomotives weighing about eighty
five tons each and capable of travelling ct
the rate of sixty miles an hour on a fuel
consumption somewhat less than that now
required by locomotives of the ordinary
type. 1t Is too early to say whether not
these new locomotives will be entirely sue
cessful, but experiments with similar en-
gines have been made in England and Ger.
many with results in every way just.fying
the innovation. Most students of mechan-
ica( science admit that the complete dis
placement of steam by electricity for all
purposes or transit Is only a question %
time. Toward that displacement the New
York Central is making a contribut on
more notable. We think, than that achieved
by our German cousins In their wonderful
high-speed railroad between Berlin ard
Zossen. where record OF 100 miles an hour
w6s lately attained.

The Crime Of Crowding.
n the New York Mail and Express.

From the New York Mail and Express.
The London method of making the crowd
ing of a street car a misdemeanor, either
OIL the part of the conductor who admits
too many people to his the passenger
who crowds in, may some time be prac-
ticable in this city. We trust that it will
be.
But its operation is contingent upon there
being means of transportation sufficient.
or very nearly sufficient, for the people who
wish to travel. That may be the case II;
London. and it is earnestly hoped that it
viii. be the case in the New York of the
future. Just now any attempt to restrfc.
the use of cars here to those who can find
seats in them would result In riots. in
which our best citizens would have their
part. There are not hotels enough down
town to accommodate one-tenth of The
crowds who would be left there all night #
trey were permitted to go home only in
conveyanees In which they could find a
seat
However. 1t behooves the people of this
city to make a note of these London pr1-
eeedings. and prepare to enforce the same
rule in the good time coming. Normally,
crowding in ear is civic crime. 1t tends
to disorder, want OF dignity. and the SORT
of public shamelessness which Is the

MATHEMATICAL EXHIBIT.
Collection Not by Any Means as I'm
interesting as It Sounds.

From the New York Tribune.
Few things on earth sound worse than
mathematical exhibit The ordinary I'M
academic mortal would rather pay a
fine than go to one. Yet only few min
utes are necessary to convince the vlsltor
to the mathematical exhibit at the educa-
tionaI museum of Teachers College that
there is responsiveness, deep human in
terest-one might almost say romance
about the history and literature of mathe-
mates here presented
The exhibition includes three hundred
rare portraits OF famous mathematicians
and one hundred autographs of famous
mathematicians, all lent by Prof. David
Eugene Smith of Teachers College; about
forty rare manuscripts and early editions,
lent by George A. Plimptoh; some valuable
early American books arithmetic from
the library of Columbia University; ancient
and modern computing machines, from the
swanpan of the Chinese laundryman to the
modern machine which will add columns
thousand figures long with one turn of the
crank. and number of interesting eduea-
tional devices.
The oldest manuscript in the exhibition is
a specimen of the first Latin edition of
Euclid the work of Campanus, bishop OF
Jerusalem, who translated 1t about l26O
from the Arabic. 1t Is on yellum, beauti-
fully Illuminated. An arithmetic by Boetius,
made about fifteen years later. Is one of the
gems of the exhibit. with its diagrams done
beautifully on velfum in coloFs.
Arithmetic, to the ancient and medieval
mind, meant something more different from
the modern business arithmetic which en-
