NEW Lanai PLANTATION
LANDS OF PALAWAI TO BE PUT
INTO CANE.
Estate Containing Nearly 1000 Acres
to be Capitalized at About 81 900, 900
--KaneOhe Plantation.

Palawai. on the Island of Lanai, Of
which slight mention was made yester-
day, will most probably be the next
plantation opened. The promoters are
now at work upon the general lines of
the scheme, and the books will likely
be opened for subscriptions early next
week.
The lands of Palawai are just across
the Island of Lanai from the estate
of the new Maunale Sugar Company.
But while Maunalei is low, Palawai Is
on the high fiat with the still higher
country Immediately above. In It's
location it catches ample water for
ordinary purposes and the facilities
for supplying excess water are of the
best.
There are nearly four thousand ac-
res of the best sugar land in the tract
which will be put into cane at once.
4 year ago when the place was first
examined with a view to business the
present promoters planted cane in va-
vious parts of the estate for the puI'-
pose of experiment There is cane on
the place now eight feet high, besides
a quantity of seed cane.
The capitalization of Palawai will be
between 81. 600 600 and $i,500.0O0 There
will be a large block of assessable
stock a part of which will go on the
local market. The shares will be 500
and the money will be called in as re-
quired in 10 per cent assessments.
Gear, Lansing q Co. have obtained
lease of a considerable tract of land
at Kaneohe. beyond the Pail. and pro-
pose establishing a plantation there
on the lines of Maunalei A part OF
the tract belongs to the Kaneohe Ranch
Company and a part has been hereto
| fore leased to Heeia. Engineers are
| now on the ground establishing water
| plans, etc.
| A 10 per cent assessment on the stocl
| of the Nahiku plantation is now due
and payable. The time will be up OF
| Monday afternoon

FASHIONS LATEsT FLATS.

The latest fad in feminine adorn-
ment among the smart set, say those
who have just come from Broadway,
where Dame Fashion exhibits her lat
est conceits, is the Nethersole bracelet.
1t is made both in silver and gold and
is Orientalesque in design Olga Meth
ersole, the actress, gave the idea both
of the bracelet and the design by the
bracelets she wore in one of the plays
she presented with so much success
this season.
Another of the very newest things is
modification of a novelty that first
appeared last fall. The original nov
city was scarf belt for women in the
very brightest hues of silk, fastened
with a gold or silver buckle of open
work design. The scarfs are in one
color or several, in plaids, stripes, or
any other striking design. This
springs modification of them is the adj
of wearing the scarf about the throat,
as well as at the waist
In scarf pins both for men and for
women, the proper thing as Broadway
proves, is a straight stick pin with a
pear shaped head. This head may be
of any material, gold, silver, pearl,
enamel or combination of one or
more of these. plain or set with a sin
gle precious stone. Pearls have be-
come wonderfully expensive of late,
| the price having gone up fully 100 per
| cent. For that reason perhaps they
are more sought after than ever.
In jewelry there is a reversion to
the heavy carved style of thirty or
| forty years ago instead of the plain
or chased ornamentation that has pre-
| vailed of late years. Some of the de-
| signs show classical figures as well as
| the more conventional scroll carving
In this heavy setting just a single
! stone is placed. With this reVersion tC
the heavy carved designs has come a
| revival of the seal ring. In these Jade
sardonyX, bloodstone, amethyst or any
material capable of being cut into a
| SEAL is used.
In women's rings, the plain gold I'M
ornamented with chasing or carving
| still holds its own but in the setting
| the Marquise form is going out of date
| and the stones are set in combination
around the ring instead of across it
| While diamonds and torquoises are
still as popular as ever, the sapphire
| has made long strides into favor
! In cuff buttons, while the dump.

ular than ever, and the extent to which
they are being ornamented with pre-
cious stones knows scarcely any limit
| but the depth of the purse itself.
