THE TRAMWAYS FOR GUAM
Mr. Bell Writes There is a Great Open
ing for Old Cars.
Fineen Americans Had. a Red Hot Fourth
'.Horses, Plows, Hoes, Rakes are f
Io Demand.
A market has boon opened for
tho cars and tracks of tho Ha
waiian Tramways whon it gots
ready to soil ont.
D. Boll who went to Guam
sometime ago haB written to F. J.
Gross of this city detailing tho
opportunities for tramcar transit
in tbo new island possession of
tbo Uaited States. Bell says
Agana, whero he is located is five
or more miles from the harbor,
and the only means of hauling
freight and passongors to and
from tho landing place is tho
bullock carts. "A tram line
would pay well" says Mr. Bell
and ho asks that one or two oars
of tho Tramways Company be
sent to him as ho anticipates that
by this time "tbo rolling stock
can be bought cheap."
Horses cannot bo had in Guam
Eor lovo or tnonoy and Spanish
refugees going to tbo Lndrono
islands state that horses cost an
enormous figure in Manila at
present. Horses iu Hawaii are
cheap and Boll guarantees a
handsome profit Eor tbo man who
sends tho first vessel load oE Ha
waiian horses to Guam. Tram-
cars, rails una horses aro pro
mised groat profits.
It is also stated in tbo letter that
"nuotlH-r party" ia to write to
Honolulu on tho same matter.
thus indicating that the rapid
transit problem is stirring the
publio mind oE Aaana. Shortage
of modern implements is evi
denced by Bell's remark that he
has bought a nice pieos oE land
but ho will not attempt to cultivate
it until he can get "An American
plow, rako and hoo." Whether
tboro aro bpanish plows, hoes and
rakes in the island ho does not
say.
Tho postscript is interesting:
"Fifteen Americans hero now and
wo had a red hot Fourth oE July."
They All Pleaded Guilty.
The four boys arrested yester
day on tho charge of stealing
toys from E. W. Jordan's
store, appeared iu tho Polico
court this forenoon before Judg
Wilcox. They all pleaded guilty
to tho charge. One was allowed
to go free, two hnd sentenon sus
pended for tho term of six months
nnd the other, John Bull by
name, wbb sentenced to a month
in the Reform School.

Howard J. Rogers, Director of
Education and Social Economy,
who has charge of the educational

Just recently Mr. Townsond re
ceived ji lotter from Mr. Rogers
dated from bis headquarters in
Albany, N. Y., stating that space
would bo set apart for. the Terri
tories and Colonies of the United
States.
On account oE the limited space
assigned him for tho exhibit (35 x
100 feet) bo would have to ask Mr.
Townsond to condense as much as
possible. The f.dlowiug outliue
was given iu tho letter :
1. Albums or poriEolios oE pho
tographs of typical sobuol build
ings, and tbo work of tbe schools
in tho rooms.
2. Statistical charts showing
tbe growth of education in the
Islands, methods oE administra

4. Pamphlets or monogrphs
on publio education in tho Isl
ands. A
Speaking of tho exhibit, Mr.
Townsond Baid: "Now that wo
have had space assigned ns I shall
begin work on a plan. Of coun-o
you understand that money js
short so that I, will havo to work
on tho basis of economy and still
keep to the plan mapped out by
Mr. Rodgers. Photographs will

"Tho schools all over tho Isl

Government schools alono. Pri
vate Bchools Eor tho general pub
lio will bo invited to contribute.
"Tho exhibit from the Islands
must bo in place at the Exposition
by April 15. This will mako it
necessary to forward it abont the
middle of tho winter term as it
will first have to go into Mr.
Rogers' bauds for arrangement."
AT TUB ORPIHV9I.
A very croditable performance
was given at the Orphoum last
night. The curtain raiser was
very good. Miss Ethel Dixon ex
colled. Sho was most pleasing in
both her sentimental nnd coon
songs. Miss Dixon was encored
three times. Al Htzzard, the ven
triloquist, introduced nn entirely
new set oE jokes ns woll as two
more Httloi sawdust folk. The
performer kept the audience in
coutinnal laughter thus proving
himself an excellent entertainer.
Mr. Hazzard's cornet solo at the
end of his part, was very cleverly
done. Tho remainder oE tho pro
gram was up to tho usual btaudard
oE excellence.

Mr. H. T. Lake, former head
carpenter of tho Baldwin Hotel in
San Franoisco, destroyed by fire,
eoino timo ago, is ono of tho pas

Mr. Barry wa iu tho Black

oC work tbo woalth seoker dis.
covered n rich deposit of gold
yielding about $19 to tho ounce,
almost reaching the limit.
Mr. Barry will not sav any
thing in regard to the sizo oE bis
pile, as he intends returning to
tho Klondike early uext yoar to
work his claim. Ho is afraid that
in 'the event oE his talking too
much about it. others would bo
likely to tako ndvautago oE his
discovery to his detriment. OE
course he will say nothing more
than that his find is somewhero in
tho Black Mountains.
Among his effects Mr. Barry
has many very fiue specimens of
tho cold which his discovorv
yiolds. Tho return Klondiker
is a retirod mate and
has spqnt eleven years oE his life
at soa. Ho is a young man and
can tell many most interesting
and adveuturous stories of his 18
months experinco in tho' gold
fields of tbo Klondiko. He is
making the round trip with Cap-,
tain Kelly unless Honolulu tempts
him to linger hero until ho again
returns to his claim in the far
north.
