DEATH CLAIMS A CHERISHED
FLOWER.

On New Years morning, just few
moments after the bells had ceased
extolling the advent of the New Year
surrounded by the family, (all that
were in Butte), Mrs. Charles Foster
Clark passed peacefully into immor-
tality. Contrary to the wishes Of
those who so ardently prayed and
hoped against hope that the
patient would recover. A fav-
orite in Butte's social circles,
a young wife and recently the
mother of her first born, she was one
whose graces of person and of char
acter were many and whose daily life
brought often into manifestation the
most admired traits of sterling wo-
manhood. A large local public found
itself deeply interested in the It'd
ings that came respecting Mrs.
Clark's condition, during the days
when she was known to be making
an intrepid fight for life. The mes
sages of cheer that sometimes came
serve to make all the more distress
ing the unwelcome announcement of
her death. 1t is an affiliction in
which the large company of those
who esteemed and admired Mrs.
Clark will share.
The New Age, as the voice of the
entire colored population, extends
its sympathy to the surviving family
and friends.

Born To Mr.. and Mrs. Webb.

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. A. S.
Webb was visited by a new conner
last Friday. Scarcely had the little
infant opened its eyes until they
were closed-never again to look
upon the light of day. 1t was laid
to rest last Saturday afternoon in
Mount Moriah cemetery. The mother
is resting as well as could be expect
ed under the circumstances.
While sorrow and affliction is hold
ing its sway, our sympathy goes out
to them during the gloom of sadness
which is shadowing their household.

Thankful Behind Prison Bars

A most unique Thanksgiving gath
ering, and one which at first thought
would seem to be a contradiction, was
that at Oahu Prison yesterday morn
ing. Warden Henry and Deputy Ka-
mana. as their charges understand and
appreciate, believe that occasional dep
utations from the Y. NJ. C. A. are a
help rather than hindrance to prison
discipline. 1t goes without the say
ing that the everyday life ION the
reef is monotonous, so the special
music and the variety of short talks
were decidedly welcome to nearly 200
more or less willing listeners Mrs
Annis Montague Turner's Aloha De,
with chorus sung by all, was greatly
enjoyed, and her singing of Where is
my wandering boy?" seemed to fur
nish food for thought. Little Miss
Lyle's sunbeam song also seemed to
touch their hearts. The meeting was
conducted by Mr.. John M Martin,
chairman of the committee on prison
services, of the Y. M. c. "A. Other
outside speakers were Mrs. Carroll
Mrs. Coe, Rev. J. H. Behrens and
Messrs. Cooke, Van Valkenberg, Lyle
and Secretary Brown. From the in
side several selections We're rendered by
double quartet and some of the most
touching testimonies were given.

CAPTAIN RODMAN'S
WORK ON HAWAII

THE Hawaiian Islands and the ISL
ands, Rocks and Shoals to the West
ward is the title of volume, num-
bered lis, just issued by the United
| States photographic Office at Wash
! ington, the greater part of which is the
compilation of Lieutenant Commander
Hugh Rodman, U. S. N, captain of the
| Z. S. Tug IroquoiS at the Honolulu
| Naval Station.
| The volume is complete, concise, we'll
written, giving an accurate descrip-
| ton of the islands. history and gov
eminent, physical character, geological
formation, coral reefs, anchorages and
| harbors, topography and fydrogra ply,
seismic and other disturbances, espe-
cial attention being given naturally, to
the character of the channels, anchor
ages, depths and lights, and coast lines
on all the islands.
The preface sets forth that the first
edition compiled by Ensign r. C. Ray,
u. S. Navy, in 1899, was an advance
publication of so much of a contem-
plated book of sailing directions for the
Pacific ocean as related to the Hawai-
ian Islands and neighboring waters.
The present edition covers the same
region, but has been entirely rewrit-
ten.
Chapters to ", inclusive, relating
to the Hawaiian group proper, were
PREPARED by Captain Rodman, who
voluntarily undertook this labor in adj
dition to his regular duties, employing
therein the results of much personal
observation and experience In the
compilation, certain matter already in
print was Incorporated by Captain
Rodman, who also makes acknowledge
ment for contributions of valuable data
to the Superintendent and members of
the Hawaiian Government SURVEY
ONCE; to Prof. c. J. Lyons of the
Meteorological Office; to Prof. w. D.
Alexander, formerly Superintendent of
the Survey, and to the numerous mas
tiers of vessels, pilots, and others who
have aided in the work.
Speaking of depths of the coast of
Oahu, Captain Rodman says The
soundings around Oahu seem to be
much shoaler than around the other
islands; much of the southern shore is
made up of an extensive reef fiat from
one-half to one and one-half miles
wide, which extends from Diamond
Head to BARRIERS Point. Along the
northeast shore from Makapuu Head
to Kaoio Point there are coral reefs.
much cut up by small islands, and
shoal soundings extend well off-shore
Along the western shore there are
many places where an anchorage can
be found, but are much exposed.

HONOLULU AS
TRANSPORT POINT

WASHINGTON, Nov. LIT has
been thought proper in AN official re-
port to refer to the army transport ser
vice as a most costly luxury" says c..
F. Humphrey, Quartermaster General
of the Army, in his annual report to
sued today.
"As to its costliness. I submit actual
figures and facts. ! do not know in
what respect the service can be looked
upon as luxury. unless reference is
make to the excellence of the enlisted
mems accommodations. If it be a
luxury to furnish our enlisted men
with the class of accommodations now
provided in all the army TRANSPORTS,
then / favor the continuance of that
luxury.
I'm my opinion the transport service
needs no defense whatever, and no ex
cuse is offered for it by the department
charged with its operation. I, for one,
do not claim that there is any mex
orable military necessity for it's con-
tinuance, but submit that the service
is unquestionably a very valuable and
The duties that have been performed
through the transport service, with the
relative costs of transportation by the
Government, and by contract are
shown in the report. Insular transport
service for the year cost $939,606 in the
Philippine archipelago, while the cost
of transporting the same numbers of
passengers and animals and the same
amount of freight and mail under the
prevailing tariff rates of the Philippine
steamship companies. the report says,
would have been s1,027,97
During the year 1880 passengers
were carried by the transport service
between the United States, the Philip
pines, Hawaiian Islands and Alaska
Freight carried between the same
points amounted to 1921 tons.

and civilian employees were brought

Recommendation is made that Homo
lulu be declared a regular port of call
for all transports going to and return
ing from the Philippines. On account
of the inability of the department to
realize anywhere near the value of
transports no longer needed for the
service when offered for sale, it has
been determined to lay up the spare
ships in the harhors on the Atlantic
coast and at San Francisco. These
ships will be kept in condition to be
put into service on short notice should
any emergency arise requiring their
use.

Carrie Nation makes her periodical
disturbances as a matter of business.
They advertise her lectures and give
her chance to sell miniature hatchets.
The authorities, with the grim sense
of humor which is an American trait,
do not interfere with her much and,
like the Washington police judge,
listen with amusement to her TRADES.
It was the same way when Susan B.
Anthony was forcing her vote into the
ballot box and DR.. Mary Walker was
around in trousers. The official idea
was to let the show go on with but
moderate restraint in any case. Mrs.
Nation occasionally gets a small fine
which she charges up to the adyertis-
ing account.
