FRONT ENTRANCE CUT OFF
ST. ANDREWS CATHEDRAL IN A
BAD BOX.
Only Ingress is Now on Emma Street.
Cottage to be Built on the Front.
Bishop Willis Blamed.

The Beretania or front entrance to ST.
Andrews cathedral is closed, and there
is CONSERVATION in the congregations on
account of it; and, justly or unjustly,
Bishop Willis is blamed for the condi-
ton of things.
1t appears that the land in front is
owned by the Cummins Estate, of which
j. o. Carter is agent, and was leased to
the cathedral. When the fedse expired
the bishop failed to negotiate a new one
or to make any terms. A member of the
congregation says it was "a piece Of
cussedness" that it was not done.
The Cummins Estate waited on the
bishop until finally il was decided to
build a cottage on the property. The
bishop, after returning from Samoa,
was notified of this probable decision,
but made no effort to secure the drive
way. Early in the week a fence was
built across the driveway on the inside,
which snut up the entrance for all time.
A cottage win at once be built on the
lot. It's grounds will take in the vacant
plot on the right of the old driveway
and also the driveway itself. This will
| thoroughly shut off a view of the hani l.
some cathedral building from the
streets.
| The result of the whole thing is that
the front, nam and only regular en-
trance to st. Andrews will be by the
gate near the little Chinese church on
Emma street. For the accommodation
of vehicles it will now be necessary to
| use the Emma Square gate at all SER
vices. The Emma street gate will ad-
NIT the congregations.
Many members of st. Andrews CON
gregations are simply wild over the SIT
uation, but are now powerless to act
They say that by shutting up the main
entrance their property has deprecated
| in value several thousands of dollars.

ALL CREWS ARE RESTING THIS
AFTERNOON.
Still Great Uncertainty Among the
Sports as to the Winners-Opinions
Are Even-Trains Tomorrow.

Two excursion trains will leave the
city tomorrow afternoon for the scene
of the championship races at Pearl Har-
Dor. The nrst, going at LAS O'Clock,
Will take the Healani oarsmen, officials,
newspaper men and such of the public
as wish to avoid the rush. At O'Clock
another train, with ample cars, viii
leave the depot. Racing will begin soon
after the arrival of the latter at the
Peninsula.
All the crews are resting today for
the final clash tomorrow. The MyrtleS
will spend tonight at the harbor and to-
morrow morning will be busted prepar-
ing for the races.
The Healani crews have spent the day
in town and will not go to the harbor
until tomorrow afternoon. The re-
manner of the time to the big events
will be spent by the men in getting
pointers from the coxswains.
There was an unconfirmed report
about town last evening that the Hoa-
lanis were offering two to one on their
senior crew. A stampede started in
their direction, but the fellow with the
confidence could not be found. He had
probably already gone to the races. >"
Opinions even, find takers, although
there has been very little betting.
1t is really a hard proposition this
year. Experts, men who have watched
| for crabs on the other fellows oars
ever since rowing began in the Islands,
| shake their heads on tomorrow's clash
IN the crews themselves, on both sides,
| there is a lack of confidence an7 a feel
ing that they must pull like "blazes"
! 1t is a fact if the pointer goes for
| anything, that the Myrtle seniors, in a
| trial spin, have lowered the record of
the Islands. But the Healanis have done
! the same, and there you are.
! The surveyors have found the course
| . little eNo~t and have lengtbaned u
over a hundred feet this year, which will
probably make a difference of about
| fifteen seconds in time.

FACTS FOR THOSE WHO RIDE.
They Impose no Obligations on Those
Who Walk.

Here are a few facts which the police
department. desires to call to the atten-
tion of the public in regard to vehicles,
public and private.
mo horse or mule shall be left in
any street without being securely tied
or fastened.
2-Carriage or wagons standing at any
point along the street must be close to
and paralleled with the sidewalk so as
not to unnecessarily obstruct such
street.
3-Tramcars and licensed buses al
the intersection of any two streets will
be compelled to stop fer passengers al
the further crossing.
1t is also intended to strictly enforce
hack rules and regulations.

RADICAL IMPROVEMENTS.

Sewing machines of the present are
very different from those of the past.
Radical improvements have been made,
AMI women quickly realize the differ
ence between a cheaply made imitation
and the light running, easily adjusted
Singer sewing machine. Singer ma
chimes are so simple that a child can
understand them; they are so strong
that a bungler can hardly get them out
of order. Every point is made with
such scrupulous care and eXactness.

ASYLUM ROAD

A gang of workmen has been started
regularly on the Asylum road and in
dications now are that the driveway
will be completed in short order. Hav-
ing to run through several house lots
and taro patches considerable clearing
and filling will have to be done. When
completed the road will be perfectly
straight and much shorter than the old
round about drive.

MORE NEW VEHICLES.

Gus Schuman has received another In
voice of surreys, phaetons, buggies and
stylish buckboar 8, and they are now
on exhibition at his Fort street reposi-
tory. Morgan & Wright have placed the
agency for the Hawaiian Islands for
their celebrated rubber tires with Mr.
Schuman. A distinctive feature of this
tire Is that there is no space between
tire and rim to allow gravel apd sane
to enter and thus destroy the rubber.

Miss Alcott's drumming Away"


Running away" was one Of the
chief pleasures of the noted authoress
Louisa M. Alcott, when she was q
youngster, and brought the little cul-
prit many strange experiences. Once
she passed the day with some Irish
children, who generously shared the
cold potatoes, salt fish, and crusts with
her as they reyeled in the ash heaps on
some waste ground. When dusk set
in, the small adventures was deserted
by her friends, to sit forlornly on a
doorstep feeling that home was, after
all, nice place If she could only find
it. A big dog allowed her to pillow he1
head on his back and have nap, from
which she was awakened by the town
crier, whom her parents had sent In
search of her. His bell and description
of the loss Of "a little girl, 6 years old
in pink frock, white hat, and new
green Shoes" woke up the truant, and
small voice out of the darkness an
swered:
'Why, da's mer'
She was carried to the crier's home
and Toasted sumptuously OH bread and
molasses while her parents were fetch
ed; but the fun ended the next day
when she was tied to the arm of the
sofa and left to repent at leisure
