Honolulu now has gas.
The first gas manufactured here from
crude oil was turned into the big tank
of the Honolulu Gas Company at Iwilei
yesterday at noon amid considerable
ceremony. The modern plant just
erected was put to the test by S. G..
Lowe, brother of the inventor of the
Lowe crude oil high pressure system,
who has installed the system. 1t work

tinued until Wednesday, when Mr..
Lowe returns to the coast in the Ala
media, to install another and much
larger plant at Reno, Nevada. Then

which will be ready to supply gas to
whomsoever desires it in the business
and residence area already piped.
The gas plant is located at Iwilei,
makai of the great nest of crude oil
tanks of the Pacific Oil and Union
Oil Companies. Already there, is the
structure covering the boilers. dyna-
mos, blower, generators and other ap-

near by is one tank for holding gas
and another in course of erection. \

tion of crude oil and the company has
options on adjacent land, so that if

be supported by some coast de-
fense ships small monitors. But
this is a form Of economy in which
no nation with oceanborne com
mcrce and distant possessions can
indulge Consequently, men-of-
war are built to 70 anywhere and

Very Fortunate Escape.

The family of Clarence Smith had a
very narrow escape one day last week
and the only wonder is that anyone was
left to tell the tale.
1t seems that Mr.. Smith had employed
William Carl to remove some stumps
from his premises. Carl appeared at the
house with several sticks of dynamite,
which were frozen, and while Mr.. Smith
was making his trip to the creamery,
and Mrs. Smith had gone to some of the
outbuildings to look for turkey eggs.
Carl went into the house and placed one
or more sticks of the dynamite in the
stove oven to thaw and went out into the
yard to arrange some other work. In
less than five minutes the dynamite
exploded, wrecking the room and its
contents. 1t broke the overlays, 12x12,
under the stove, broke nearly all the
dishes, cracked the case of piano in an
adjoining room. There is not whole
pane of glass in the house. The building
is an old fashioned one and the timbers
are much larger than would be used in
modern buildings. Fortunately no one
was in the house at the time of the
explosion. The damage is not far from
5000.

The Baptist Church to be Rebuilt.

The Baptist church edifice is to be
practically rebuilt through the generosity
of Col. S. A. Ilsley, who has taken so
much interest in this society. Plans are
being prepared by W. R. b. Wilcox of
Burlington, the architect who designed
the beautiful new building for the Bur-
lington Savings Bank, and many of the
fine church and school buildings in that
city. The front will be entirely remod-
eled and changed.
The entrance will be in the center,
with entrance to the basement under
meath. The latter will be enlarged and
finished, furnishing fine rooms for the
prayer meeting, Sunday school, and for
social purposes. There will be an addi-
ton to the rear of the church to furnish
room for the choir and a fine pipe organ
in the rear Of the pulpit; for the pastor 5
study, robng and choir rooms, etc. The
auditorium will be enlarged by taking in
the present lecture room and the room
over il and completely refurnished
| New and handsome electric light fixture.
and chandeliers will be put in. The eX
terror will be painted and handsomely
finished i'm tresco. A new and moderr
steam heating system will be installed
using the direct-indlrect idea now pu
into the best schools and churches.
This is only an outline of the changes
that will make this one of the mode
church editces in Vermont.
In an interview yesterday with botl
Col. llsley and the pastor, we We're iii
formed that the report, i'll another paper
stating that Rev. Geo. r. Stair cam'
here largely through efforts of Col Isle,
was incorrect. Col. Ilsley never met o
heard of Rev. Mr.. Stair until he met hin
here as pastor of this church.
The Rutland Daily News says: mid
dlebury is decidedly Fortunate in having
as its good angel" a publicspirited MAJ
of wealth like Col. S. A. Ilsley. In man
fold ways he has given literally towar'
worthy objects in the village. There ar
not only now many who thoroughl
appreciate his benefactions, but ther
are many more who will rise up in afte
!, years to call him blessed. There ar
devious ways in which a man of larg
means can similarly endear himself fOI
ever in the hearts of Rutland people
Thus far this city has unfortunatel
almost entirely escaped the kindly office
of philanthropists."
