An event Of double importance was
recorded in local history last night when
Nine. Lillian Nordica gave the dedica-
tory concert in the auditorium of the
new Masonic Temple. Thirteenth street
and New York avenue. A more brilliant
recital has rarely been heard in Wash
ington and, furthermore It marked the
dedication Of a music hall for which
Washington has been longing many
years.
The big auditorium and its galleries
were filled when Nine. Nordica appear
ed. The prima donna received a warm
greeting, not only when she first bowed
10 her audience. but throughout the en-
tire evening She was deluged with
flowers. and proved 50 gracious with en-
cores that the audience was unwilling
even 10 leave the hall wnen the program
had been concluded.
Her Fulsome Voice.
Rarely has Nine. Nordica sung with
greater effect Her big dramatic voice
rang through the concert hall, and its
fire and enthusiasm seemed almost 10
lift the listeners from their seats. In
the numbers requiring the full strength
Of her beautiful voice. Nine. Nordica
proved most effective. This was partic-
ularly true Of her opening number. the
aria from The Queen Of sheba," and
the spirited and delicious work Of Mrs.
Beach, The Years at the Spring"
The latter number was given bv re-
quest and Nine NOrdica aroused the
most pronounced enthusiasm BY her
superb reading. One Of the daintfest
and most clear cut numbers was the
familiar Mia Piciralla" Of Comes.
ms was one OF group Of Italian
songs, each differing in mood from the
other, but all Of them delightful. A
group or German songs closed the pro-
gram, and 20 these Nine. NOrdica add
ed Rogers At Parting" Another eff
tective encore was Nevin's Mighty
Lax A Rose which the prima donna

audiences. After each group Of songs

investigation of the United States
Geological Survey.
Mr.. Fernaid believes that the gas
engine or internal combustion ma
chine, as it is called, will be installed
in naval vessels of the United States
within the next few years.
United States to Lead
II expect to see the United States
ahead of every other nation in this
innovation" said Mr.. Fernald. "rhe
gas engine, in my opinion, Is feasible
on any vessel because of its economy
over the steam engine, but It is espe-
cially desirable on the fighting ship
for the reason that it makes no
smoke. The gas Is generated BY u
producer which has no chimney and
needs none. The coal is turned di-
rectly into gas, wGich goes straight
to the engine.
The elimination of the smoke is
sufficient to call for the installation
of the gas engine, yet there are many
other features In it's favor. The yes-
sci would have free deck for the
play of its big guns. There would he
no towering stacks to puncture or
destroy, thus perhaps Gripping the
boat. Then 1t would he unnecessary
to carry as much coal, for the same
. power can be developed with one
third less than the steam engine
uses.
The Government through the Geo
logical Survey has been experiment.
ing with the gas producer and gas
engine for several years and has
demonstrated that this type of engine
in stationary plant is capable of
Generating from twice to three times
as much power from a given amount
of coal as the steam engine.
1t also has shown that the gas en-
gine can develop more power from a
low-grade coal. such as the Ignite of
North Dakota, than the steam engine
lcould with the same weight of the
best bituminous coal.
The tests in the gas producer at
the Government plant have shown
that many fuels Of such low grade
, as to be practically valueless for
| steam furnace purposes, including
: slack coal bone coal, and Ignite
may be economically converted into
producer gas. In this way Ignite

/ tive and contains a number Of men
whose record In public life will as
sist them materially.
The unanimous nomination of Wise
for Sheriff. Kalauokalari for County
Clerk, and Cathcart for County At
tOrney is the best proof that could be
offered that they will have the solid
support of the party. It also bears
out the conclusion that the critics Of
Wise, and CUthcart We're not Justified
in the attitlde assumed toward these
men. The makeup Of the convention
was such that these candidates could
not have gone through without oppo-
sition If they lacked he confidence of
responsible party men and the COM
munity generally. These candidates
will be elected, as will Auditor BiCk-
nell. who is especially strong.
In securing II. NJ. Won Holt for
fortunate. or Mr.. Won Hollis quail
ncations for the Office no argument is
necessary. and as Il campaigner he
will undoubtedly turn out as one of
the chief supports.
Convention delegates and party
managers are to be congratulated on
! the manner in which they have car
ried through the work of the last
few days. They should get down to
work Immediately for united effort in
Trolling up a good majority for the
straight ticket.
II matters little whether, in the
esteem of one faction the political
generals in the convention were found
to lack in judgment. The foundation
fact of the whole situation is tina
lspllt-ticket voting was and is at tn,
bottom of the occasional outcroppiug
of bitter feeling.
When party lines are more strict,
drawn. there will be an end of tn
fractional divisions that are bad TO

steady progress of local self-govern
ment.
The average citizen who believe
in a square deal and straight polite
will vote the straight Republican
ticket.
We believe there is a large major
ity of such citizens in the City an
County of Honolulu.

THE REPUBLICAN TICRET.

The Republican convention of Sat
urday had more candidates to name
and more factions to handle than any
convention the party in this Terri
tory has ever held. The work was
brought to n partial completion with
the greatest measure of success. Con-
sidering the bitter contests that were
waged in one or two instances. the
ill-feeing aroused was insignificant.
The Republican ticket strikes Il
higher average than many expected,
considering the complications. As for
the harsh things said In the fight,
forget them. Stand by the ticket
Until the situation in the Fifth
District is Strengthened out and the
Fourth District delegates formally
name their slate, the ticket can hard
ly be said to be complete, but the
prospect OF a withdrawal in the Fifth
will probably strengthen the party
on the other side of Nuuanu", and
the Fourth Is certain to elect all its

District convention on Sunday morn
ing was hasty and ill-advised. Sus-
pension of the rules under such cir
cumstances is always dangerous. We
believe that serious deliberation of
wide-awake delegates would have re-
suited with much more credit to the
convention and the delegates.
The ticket as whole is well bal
anced to meet the demands of all ele-
ments. II deserves the support of
Republicans and should appeal to all
voters. The Senatorial ticket Is eX-
ceptionally strong in trained and ca
pable men. The final Representative

The Presidential campaign has Ia
ken. on religious tinge which will
not be objectionable If bitterness
and personal rancor are introduced.
We may be assured from the start
at any rate that the unitarians will
be judicial and dispassionate, for
these qualities come to them by in
heritance, and are a part of their
philosophy and ethics. They have
always stood for liberty of conscience,
and Thomas jefferson, one of their
early members, put their doctrine in
to the Declaration of Independence.
They preach the divinity of man
and the humanity of Jesus; the in
trinsic goodness of the human heart.
And whatever may be said or done
in the heat of debate, written or oral,
IL will be the part of the liberal size
to parry thrusts only, and to put in
its true light the essential belief of
all Unitarians. The Unitarian, -
whether called Arian, Socinian, Ana
Baptist, Universalist, Quarker, or
Waldesian, long suffered all
sorts of persecution for his belief in
one God; for his denial of n dogma
forced upon the primitive churches
lby Emperor Constantine.

alive for his pamphlet denying the
deity of Jesus. He persisted at Dub
