Mr.. Ford has been recognized as the fore
most after-dinner speaker id America. but
his immediate success as a writer stamps
him a great hum0rist. Mr.. Ford lends to
his every sentence charm Of expression

Few of the writer's of humor from Arte-
mus Ward to Mr.. Dooley, were able to

Even SO great a speaker as was Mr., Beech

Of American humor, and his advent into

VIII be Completed by
July 4.
DEDICATED ON THAT DAY
Three Steamers Are Now Engaged in
Laying Sections Between Philip
pines and Hawaii.

Washington, May 15.-An official Of
the Commercial company announces
that the expectation of the company
is that the cable between Honolulu and
Manila will be completed by July 4,
and for sentimental reasons it is de-
sired to open the entire line from San
francisco to Manila for business on
that day. The company has three
steamers engaged In the work Of lay
ing the stretch Of cable between Ha-
waii and the Philippines.
One steamer will put down the cable
from Manila to Guam, another from
Guam to the Midway islands and the
third from the Midway to Honolulu
where it VIII be connected with the
cable already operating between that
port and the United States.
Outlook For business Good.
The stretch Of cable between Califor.
MIA and Hawaii was laid from east to
west; the other three sections will be
laid from west to east. The indiea-
tions are that when the new line Is
completed it viii Immediately get suf-
fcient government and private bust
ness TO make It's outlook good
1t has been noted that the cable
from San Francisco to Honolulu has
thus far carried little business, and
also that the new British Pacific cable
connecting Canada and Australia Is
doing practically nothing. The govern
ment business with the Philippines,
however, continues to be heavy and
will be heavier with the lower rates
by the new Pacific cable 60 into effect.

who has pneumonia The hearing was at

The state was not ready and asked the

a continuance, which was granted to MAY

Of the property holders within

solves itself into this, viz. Can the com
