PLANS OF THE HIGH SCHOOL
Interesting Session of the Board Of
Education is Promised.
VIEWS OF TWO FACTIONS ARE IN CONFLICT
Members Are at LoggcrheRds Over
the Question OF What the
Structure, ShOrn of Equip
ment, Should Cost.

The special meeting of the Board of Edu-
cation this evening, which is to be held
for the purpose of enabling the members
to consider the plans of the High school sub
mtted by Architect Mcdonald, promises to
be an interesting session. 1t will bring two
elements in the board which have been at
loggerheads since the school building matter
came up, into direct conflict.
The fight will come up over the cost OF
the building. Architect Mcdonald, in ac-
cordance with suggestions that he has re-
ceived from a number of board members, has
drawn plans of a structure which he esti-
mates will cost S14O0 900 or in that neghbor-
hood. While S150,000 was voted by the peo-
pie for High school purposes, there is an
element in the board which insists that the
actual cost of the building shall be much
below this amount.
This element desires, among other things
that $685. 900 of the s15G,00O shall be used for
equipping the manual training department
and the chemical laboratories. The board
members who are working for this insist
that this money must come out of the pro-
ceeds of the bonds, because the bond propo-
sition provided that the money should be
used for High school facilities" and not a
High school building solely.
This view Is combatted by another element
in the board. This element declares that
the money used for the equipment of the spe-
cial departments Of the High school should
come out Of the general fund and that it was
the intention of the people to permit the
board to eXpend the entire $150,00O in the
erection of a building. This is the matter
over which the board members will lock
horns. 1t will come up. in the shape of a
committee report which was introduced at
the last meeting and laid over appropriating
$4,000 out of the $1500OO for the equipment

II it finds time the board will also con-
slider the specifications and plans of the Cass
school building. The plans and specifica-
tions were submitted by Architect Latenser
at the last meeting, but the board membe
desired time to go over them in detail. 1t is
anticipated that they will be adopted with
out any material changes.

THE PORT OF BOTTLES.


 A Dead Spot in the Caribbean Sea That
 No Floating Flask Can Get Away
 From.
 "There is a dead spot in the Carib- bean sea-" said the first officer of Brazilian ship, chatting at the custom house the other day, that ought to be called the port of bottles. It lies very nearly midway between Cartagena, Tn Colombia, and Kingston, Jamaica, and at q guess I should say it was due east of Cape Gracias Dios. It is out of the steamer tracks, and the action or | the great currents going one way and | another has left a space of stagnant water without any real movement at all. Anything that gets into the dead snot is apt to stay there unless driven out by some big storm, and will simply drift round and round, gathering sea l grass and barnacles.
 l "The last time I saw the place was in '95 when I was on board tramp from Rio that had changed it's course little l to take up some rubber at Central l American port While we were passing l thro1eh we noticed a floating spar, and 1 among q lot of rubbish attached to 1t was a peculiar looking object, brlght l red in color We put off boat to ln- 1 yestigate and 1t proved to be a patent l buov. which had been set adrift from a | Florida lighthouse station in 93, ana | was part of a systematic attempt to l ascertain the speed and direction or l currents. Inside was an official memo | randum which was ,afterward returned to the navy department with data or | when and where found. But what IS a l good deal more interesting is the 1act | that while we were securing the buoy
 we discovered three bottles sticking Tn l the drift all covered with weeds ana 1 slime One was empty and the other two had papers inside. The first was d | memoranda that the bottle had been | dropped from yacht off the Grand | Cayman in, I think, the year 1892 ano the other inclosure showed that It came from a ship bound for Montevideo, or what date I forgot. In each case it was evidently the whim of some idle pas
 senger. but it was a little odd that we should find the whole collection togeth' ] CT.
 q noticed a lot of other driftWood h
 the dead spot, and I am confident thai
 no end of bottles could be cuiied from
 the place. Hundreds are dropped over
 board every year. but very few escapt
 being knocked to pieces unless they
 happen to find their way to some sucf
 a still place as have described. '-Nev | n,Iea,c Times Democrat

EIgHTY-THIRD ANNITERSARY
Ofthe First Baptist Church Commence
 rated Yesterday.

The eighty-thlrd anniversary of the First Baptist church was held yester- day. the exercises taking place in Re- nublican hall, the temporary meeting place of that church. The annual rally day exercises were also held yesterday morning in the hall and brought out a large gathering, both of young and old' The exercises opened with a prelude' followed by the doxology and the invo- cation. Hymn BPS was then heartily sung by all present, and the Sunday school then repeated the first and tWen- | ty-third psalms.
 The address of welcome was made py Miss Irene Hardy. Miss Hardy, who is one of the young scholars in the sun day school, spoke very nicely Welcoiii- ing the Sunday school teachers schoi- ars and all workers in the church
 dialogue by Master Herbert Harfls and Madeline Gardner was then giVeh followed by beautiful anthem py the choir. The rest of the exercises were taken up by recitations by May Gibson, Herbert Mcclure, Joey Collard, Reuben Palmer and Ella Angus.
 There was duett by Flora and Eva Wagner. an acrostic by fifteen glrls ana bows of the Sunday school. The schol- ars of the Sunday school recited the hooks of the Bible and the nineteenth l psalm.
 The nastor of the church, Rev. Addl- son Moore. made brief address, Tn which he told few interesting stories to the members of the Sunday school. The axercises were very we'll attended. Tn tbe evening the tenth anniversary of the Y P s. c. E. was held. These eX- ercises like those of the morning were held in Republican hall and were very largely attended. ,..
 An interesting history of the society WAS read by Miss Florence Watrous' and addresses were made by pr. Frea- erick Sperrv, Mrs Gertrude Hunt, John Y Shepard and the pastor Rev. MT Moore's topic was 'The Nineteenth Century Crusade and was very inter- esting.
 A meeting of the congregation of Hope Baptist church will be held on Wednesday of this week to take 1inal action on the matter of consolldatlhe with the First Baptist church people If is understood that the majority ol the Hope Baptist people are in favor oi the combination of the two congrega' tions, and that an invitation will be ex- tended to the First society this week As the First church is also anxious te take the step there now seems ltth chance of the proposed union dropping through.

RAPID TRANSIT COMPANY MAY

Government Says GO Ahead" to an
Application to That End-Numerous
Matters Discussed

IL every application for car tracks on
King street means business that thor
oughfare may be as full of iron rails
shortly as a telephone pole Is full of
wires. Already the Hawaiian Tram
ways Company is doubling its track
When it's application came in the Gov
ernment said ''go ahead"
Now the Honolulu Rapid Transit
Company wants King street line from
Nuuahu stream to Victoria street, or
the further end Of Thomas Square. Go
ahead" the Government said this morn
ing. In both cases the replies or as
sents have carried the words subject
to- such and such acts, being the laws
under which the respective companies
are operating.
The result of the thing will simply be
to bring the matter into the courts.
When the rapid transit starts to build
there will be a suit and the whole ques-
tion of priority of rights on certain
streets will be settled once and for all
by the supreme court.
At the Cabinet meeting this morning
claim for damages for the land in
front of Mays new block required in
the street widening bill, was presented
but went over The claim is for SIS a

as other condemnations in the neigh
borhood have been made on basis OF

feet in the little strip required.

GIN. IRVING HALE

Gen. Irving Hale, the gallant colonel
of the Colorado volunteers who won
laurels and wounds in the Philippines,
is a through passenger on the Doric.
He is accompanied by his wife.
Gen. Hale passed through here as
the colonel of the Colorado volunteers
more than a year ago. The part he
and his regiment played in the cap
ture of Manila, was one of the roman
tically chivalrous and striking Incl
dents of the war. 1t was the Colorado
band that played "a Hot Time in the
Old Town" when they and the troops
were advancing at a double quick to
the assault.
Col. Hale was made a BrigadieI Cen
eral of Volunteers for conspicuous
ability and bravery. At the time of
the Filipino attack on Manila, Febru-
airy 4, his brigade consisted of the
Colorado, South Dakota and Nebraska
regiments and 1t was on the front of
the Nebraskans that the fighting be-
gan. Under Gen. Hale they captured
Block House and the waterworks.
Gen. Hale's brigade advanced with
Gen. MacArthur'S division and took
part in the capture of Malolos and
afterwards occupied Calumpit and San
Fernando. He was at San Fernando
when the order came to muster out the
Colorados. The Volunteer Brgadier
Generals are being mustered out with
the regiments in which they entered
the service. Gen. Hale left Manila with
old regiment July Is on the Warren,
He left that vessel there and after Il
week spent in Japan came on the Doric.
He expects to reach san Francisco
about the same time that the Warren
does
The rainy season had commenced
when he left and as far as he knew
the plans We're TO hold the places al
ready captured but not to attempt
. important movements. He declined To
express an opinion on the management
of the campaign or ON the number OF
/ troops needed.
/ General and Mrs. Hale drove to tT'

JUDGE FREAR HAS CHINAMEK
BEFORE HIM.
Yellow Men Trying to Prove Their
Right to Enter Hawaii-Some of the
Witnesses and Testimony.

The two Cinnamon who have secured
a supreme Court hearing under a writ
of habeas corpus for an alleged ille-
gal attempt of the local Chinese agent
and customs authorities to deport them
were before Judge Frear in his office
at the judiciary building this morning.
Mr. Cathcart appeared for the petition
ers and Attorney General Cooper rep
resented the respondents.
The trial is taxing the turn of a re
view of the case, amounting in effect
to an appeal from the district magis-
trate, with the burden of proof this
time on the Cinnamon themselves
They viii have to prove that they have
complied with the laws of Hawaii ara
are entitled to land.
Mr. Cathcart read the petition Of his
clients. Mr.. Cooper then submitted the
answers of Chinese Agent Brown, Col
lector IVers and Deputy Marshal Hitch
cock. already noted.
All of the witnesses of the petition
ers are Chinese. They have started ON
the stand. Judge Wilcox has been re-
quired to produce all the official rec
ords of the case in the District Court
and he will also submit oral testimony
as to the reasons for his findings.
Agent Brown and Collector Ivers
will both go on the stand in their own
behalf. They will exhibit the permits
presented by the men in quarantine
and will give their reason for assuming
them fraudulent. Another witness will
be Jailor Henry, who will explain about
| the mittimus and his reasons for de-
tanning the men.
1t is almost certain that the case
will last today and nearly all of tomor-
row.
