SMALL TIDAL WAVE
IN SOUTH SEAS

The Samoanische Zeitung of a late
date contains the following account
of tidal disturbances in the South
Seas.
Mr.. Amtmann Williams reports to
the government, under date of Octo-
Der 30th. as follows:
1 have to report to you that small
tidal wave occurred here last Sunday,
2Sth October. at $50 p. m. 1t did not
come from the sea outside the reef, 1t
seems to have made start little
beyond Safai ran up in the town and
damaged one boat and three canoes.
Then it ran along to Satoalepai where
it hurt an old woman by knocking her
down. it also washed away two small
children which were afterwards found
none the worse. 1t ran round Faga-
malo at the rate of about 20 miles an
hour, but the width of the wave was
not more than SO yards; it just came
in on the ground at the government
buildings. In my opinion 1t must have
been caused by some channel from the
lava because it did not come in from
the sea. And, on account of the
narrowness of the rush, when it pass
ed here it ran right along and out
to the harbor. Had it been about two
feet deeper in the rushes at Safai and
Satoalepai there would probably have
been lot of deaths, for it came so
sudden. AS it is, I am glad to report
as above.
Your ohedient servant
WILLIAMS
Further reports about this tidal
wave have been sent 10 The Samoa
Observatorium from Faasaleleaga and
Aana, from which it is evident that
the wave was also felt in those Places,
with gradually diminishing force. The
registration of the tidal gauge in Null
nuu, however, IS very indistinct. There
was no earthquake at the time in
question Therefore the conclusion
may be drawn that the phenomenon
was purely local and slight, and had
no direct connection with the volcano.
Probably some new land formed by
the lava at Iealatele has slipped into
the sea, which of course can be ascer-
tanned. There is no occasion for fears
ON account of a small tidal wave of
this kind, even should it recur a few
times more.
DR. LINKE.
1t is reported that on October 4th
the tide at the Union Group went out
much further than usual, leaving the
reef about two feet out of the water.
The tide remained out for IA days. At
the northern portion of the group the
rise was hardly perceptible; in the
southern parts at times it rose to
about the level of the reef. Large
quantities of fish were left high and
Try on the reef and persisted there.
The natives got a fine haul of fish off
he reef. On October 18th, the tides
again became normal

made like advances. The authorities
for what I say I can give. as I have
them before me.
Inc Church of England maintains
her historic Catholic position and APP
peals to history, as she always has
done, firmly relying on the truth.
Your view that the Church is mon
archial | have disproved by citing the
action OF councils as recorded In the
acts and in history.
Ii one accepts Your theory then your
position as to Henry VIII. must fol-
low as matter of course.
But if one carefully examines the
matter and finds that the theory has no
historical bases, then all that you have
built upon it with reference to the
Church of England falls to the
ground.
The facts are these: The Church
was planted in Britain in early days.
st. Augustine found seven British bish-
ops there. When the Saxon kingdoms
united in one. the Church assumed a
national character. The influence of
the See of Rome as the chief see in
the west was early felt. BY degrees.
notably by the Norman conquest and
the weakness of King John, the Pope
acquired dominion over the English
Church In due time the Church, aid
ed by Parliament, threw off the yoke
and regained her primitive state. This
action created no new Church, nor re-
formed it out of existence-it simply
was the same Church with a usurped
power cast off,
Thanking you again for giving me
the opportunity of bringing the facts
in the case before the public, faithfully
yours, HENRY B. RESTARICK,
Bishop of Honolulu.
P.S.-References by you to the d.
yorce, etc. I have not touched upon,
as irrelevant to the main question "a

Why Import When We Can Produce.

Strange conditions find their way
into Oregon industry. At many q vi.
tai point arrangements are out Of
gear. Some of them of late have been
pointed out In these columns. There
are others.
Z Here is the statement made at the
nui serymen's meeting at Salem that
eight carloads of canned strawberr les
of this seasons pack have been i'm.
ported from other states into Oregon.
The known fact that the best straw
berries In the world are produced in
Oregon, and the further admitted fact
that Oregon has simply unlimited
power of soil and climate to produce
straw berr ies, make of this fact q
curious comment on Oregon enter
prise. Why we're Oregon strawberries
not grown to meet this demand, why
did not Oregon capital and Oregon
labor can them, and why we're they
not sold to Oregon consumers under
Oregon LABELS? Would we not have
saved middlemen's profits? Would we
have not saved the freight? Would
not the money sent as profits of pro-
duction and manufacture to growers
and canning establishments In other
states have been saved and paid to
growers and canning concerns in Ore.
