himself but desired all his officers to
do so.
The committee found Admiral Swim
burne, his Chief of Staff, Commander
Oliver, and aide, Lieutenant Poteet, a
most hospitable trio. The Admiral 3
cabin rang with laughter over the Ad-
miral IS tales of his former visits. 1t
was the comment of some of the com
mittee that it seemed coincidence
that Mr.. Smith should be at the head
of committee to arrange for the Ad-
miral's official doings ashore, when in
1898, at the time of the overthrow, he
was among the leaders who officially
received the Admiral, then Command
err. when the marines were landed from
the cruiser Boston.
During the committees visit with
the Admiral. Rear Admiral Sebree was
announced and the interview came to
an end.
The committee was then escorted TO
the torpedoboat destroyer Stewart by
Lieut.. Poteet and placed in charge OF
Lieut.. Edwards, who, arrayed in denim,
escorted the visitors over the ship
They were interested in the knife-blade
quarters of the seamen and the mass
of machinery. In fact they discovered
that destroyer is merely a thin skin
of steel crammed full of machinery,
not unlike peas crowding a pod.
In the room directly under the
bridge. where the ship is directed, the
visitors were shown that marvel of !

modern science, even surprising the
wireless telegraph. This was the wire
less telephone. 1t is a small appara.
tus, looking not unlike the exchange
phone apparatus in corporation
store. All the destroyers are not pro-
vided with wireless telegraph, so conn
munication is maintained between the
units of the fotilla by the wireless
telephone. When an officer Of the
Stewart desires to talk to Lieutenant
so-and-So of the Truxtun he merely sits
down to the table takes the receiver OH
the hook, so to speak, touches up the al
eohol spark, and then calmly speaking
into the transmitter calls up the officer
in question. That officer responds, and
the conversation is carried on across
the water without wires. Then the
apparatus can be used for telegraph
purposes as well
This wireless telephone apparatus,
the De Forrest system, was installed
in the torpedo fotilla when it left
Hampfop Roads in advance of the At
lantie feet on its long cruise around
Cape Horn. It is not altogether a sue
cess yet, for sometimes the spark

RECORD HOUSE At THE
ORPHEUM LAST NIGHT

Never since the Lumley company
opened in this city have they had such
bumper house as that of last night.
From noon there was a steady sale of
seats and before eight o'eloek it be-
came question where to put the vast
crowd who poured into the doors in a
steady stream. Chairs were hurriedly
requisitioned from all parts of the
building and finally it was necessary
to refuse the late corners from lack
of room. There was big attendance
of sailors who cheered enthusiastically
the famous war drama. 1t seems that
the impetus that Zaza gave the attend
ance was destined to last as the re-
ceipts have steadily mounted and it
looks as though the last week of Lum-
ley was going TO be a banner one. 1t
has taken the Honolulu public some
time 10 find out how good a company
Mr.. Lumley has brought with him and
now that the company has been seen
IN representative pieces and as they are
finishing up their season here the usual
late rush has set in. It is perhaps
true that the company has reserved
some Of their strongest pieces for their
farewell week but their repertoire has
been so good that it has been very
difficult thing TO say just what they
have been best seen in. At any rate
last nights house was a record and
the enthusiasm of the audience was
applause being given gen.
erously to all of the performers and
to the orchestra as well, as the patrio
to the orchestra as well, as the patriotic
airs they played brought the sailors
up cheering. There is something about
a full house that always brings the
actors mp to "eoncert pitch" and they
certainly were at their best on Satur-
day night. Every one was in good
humor and things went so smoothly |
that it seemed the company had been |
playing together in this piece weeks
instead of few days. It is pretty |
safe prediction that the company will
do a record business from now until |
they close on next Saturday night.
