Already half dozen prominent citizens are mentioned as appli- cants for the position. The office pays salary of from $i,000 to S5.O00 per annum, and as the appointee will have a little more than five years to serve, the judgship is quite coveted plum.
 Among those mentioned as probable can didates are former Congressman Thomas Williams, Dr. O. S. Justice, w. A. Fucker, w. A. Aston, J. A. Howe, H. J. Lancaster and John H. Parker.

The remedy was named Pe-ru-na, and in 8 short j.me be- came known to thousands of catarrh sufferers north, south, east and west. Al.

StOwaway Rescued From

There was an amusing incident on
Fort street yesterday in which a stow

Bethel street merchant were the chief
actors.
1t seems that some young stowaways
were discovered on the Zealandia dur
ing the trip down from San Francisco
and were landed on their arrival here
to be returned to the Bay City by the
first transport bound for the coast. In
addition to good treatment on board all
the way down, new suits Of clothes and
few dollars each were given them by
the generous soldiers. 1t was on
crowded Fort street that one of the
stowaways was spied by soldier who
seized the lads hat.
Mr.. E. Benner came along at this
time, took him to the nearest halter
and presented him with a first class
article of headgear to replace the one
taken by the soldier.

FOR STOCK GRAZING PURPOSES

A large land transaction was closed
yesterday. w. G. Achl obtained 3,00(
acres of the Honomalino ranch and
other lands situated in South Kona
| from j. NJ MOnsarrat. Leaseholds are
given for 5000 acres while the remain
ing 5000 are bought outright in fee
simple. The price paid by Mr.. Achi
was $4,000
| At present portion Of these lands is
iused for grazing purposes, there being
few hundred head of cattle and horses
now roaming over the territory. About
forty acres, however, are planted In
coffee and are leased to Japanese.
| Mr.. Achi leaves to-day by the Mauna
Loa to look over the property He will
be accompanied by VIM. Blaisdell, for
merly manager of Kealia plantation.
| 1t is not definitely known what the
real estate man intends to do with his
new purchase. The fact that he will
be accompanied by Mr.. Blaisdell pa-
turally leads to the thought that an
other plantation is on the tapis.
When seen concerning his intentions
Mr. Achi said that he had no intention
of starting plantation and that Mr..
Blaisdell accompanies him merely as a
guest. He affirms that it is his int =
tion to turn the property into a large
grazing tract. He says that there is
no excuse for the fact that beef is i'm
ported to these Islands, and intends to
furnish a plentiful supply for the mar
ket.
Another plantation is to be started
on Lanai The site of this last one
proposed is the Palawai lands which
are situated on the opposite side of the
island from the n W Maunalei planta-
ton. The promoter of the new scheme
is w. H. Pain, manager of the Tram
way Co. 1t is expected that the sub
scription list will be opened In few
days
The tract in consideration includes
about 1000 acres of available cane
land. Some time ago when the pro-
posed site was being looked over some
cane was planted which has since
come up very well. The lands are stu
ated in the higher part of the Island.
The new plantation will be capital
ized at about $1,500,000 The shares
will be divided up into $50 each with
10 per cent. assessments. The greater
portion of the stock will be placed
On the local market.

got there the flames had been exiting

seems that a lamp left burning in one
of the sleeping apartments upstairs
had been turned over setting fire to
the netting. Very little damage was
done.

\ Wise Decision.

The Kindergarten Association is still
beloved OF the public, remembered by
it, and cared for as the report of the
Financial Secretary proved at the April
meeting.
The important subject of discussion
at this meeting was, Are We eligible
for membership in the Associated
Charities?' As a Childrens Aid So
ciety, it would seem that we are, and
affiliation with that body will guard
against the displacement of donations
and the i'll use of moneys which should
go to serve worthy needs. The matter
was thoroughly ventilated, and was
voted in the affirmative.
Thus the Kindergarten Association
now stands shoulder to shoulder with
the most advanced thought of the day.
