Government Survey Steamer Is Here to
Make New Chart of Local Waters

The United States steamer Explorer
of the coast and geodetic survey ar
rived here yesterday, four days from
Seattle, in command of Captain W. c..
Dibrell. The vessel was in the harbor
for half a day before its presence was
discovered. If the Explorer had been
a hostile fleet 1t could have selected its
own time and place when and from
where to begin the bombardment, and
If the survey steamer had been a
friendly foreign warship the Presidio
would probably have scored another
miss in the matter of returning gum
powder salutations. 1t is only fair,
however. to the lookouts of the marine
exchanges and to the military senti-
nels to state that the Explorer made
Its way in under cover of dense fog
The Explorer has come here to do
some photographic work of great inn
portance to the local shipping world.
Most of the Explorers work will be
done in the harbor and will include a
complete survey of Suisun bay. Cap
tain Dibrell will also investigate the
shoal water south of the Farallones
reported by the liners Alameda and
Mongolia That there has been a great

plorer will find out its full extent.
Captain Dowdell of the Alameda
made soundings recently about six

got bottom at IL fathoms instead of
the 20 fathoms shown on the chart.
The Explorers work also includes a
new chart of the San Francisco water
front. The Explorer is a neat little
steamer of the revenue cutter type and
was built in Baltimore in 1904 The
steamer came to this coast two years
ago and has been surveying in the
vicinity of Kodiak island and in Puget
sound
Although engaged in photographic
work, neither the Explorer nor its of
ficers are in any Nway connected with
the navy. The officers are: Captain
w. G. Dibrell. Executive officer F. H.
Hardy, Chief Engineer Allan Hopkins,
DR.. r. H. Hawkes. and Watch Officers
A. r. Hunter, Henry Bernhardt and S.
w. Tay.
Manchuria Sails for Far East
The Pacific Mail liner Manchuria,
captain saunders, sailed yesterday for
the far east, crowded with passengers
and carrying about $500 tons of cargo
The liner carried about 200 cabin pas
sengers and COS Asiatics in the steer
age.
Among the passengers was Mrs. H. T.
Bosnian, the surplus wife of the Hong
Kong millionaire, who arrived here on
the liner Korea with one more better
half than the immigration department
considers even foreign millionaires are
entitled to have while in the United
States. Bosnian and his two wives
were ordered deported. but the order
was modified and Bosnian and one
Wife permitted to remain on condition
that the other wife went back to

and for half an hour before sailing
time they wept in each others arms.
After the Manchuria's lines had been
cast off, somebody discovered on the
wharf trunk that should have been

FACTS WORTH KNOWING.
(By j. Frantz.)


The material for a man weighing $50 pounds
can be found in the white and yolks of 1908
hens eggs.
Reduced to fluid the average man would
yield .9S cubic metres of Illuminating gas and
hydrogen enough to fill a balloon capable of
lifting 1876 pounds
The normal human body has in it the iron
needed to make seven large nails, the fat for
IA pounds of candles. the carbon for ga gross
of crayons and the phosphorus for 800 900
matches.
out of a normal human body may be obtained
20 large spoons of salt so Jumps of sugar and
40 quarts of water.
man will die for want of air in 5 minutes;
for want of water in week.; for want of
sleep in ten days; for want of food, at vary
ing intervals, dependent on various circum-
stances.
our sun is about 800 miles in diameter
or 1882 times the size of the earth
If Il railway were bull to the sun, and
trains upon it We're at the rate of AZ
miles an hour day and night. without STOP
it would require 255 years to make the jour-
ney from the earth to the sun.
