MAY EXTEND THE NHARVES
HOW GOVERNMENT MAY GET
DROP ON UNCLE SAM
Significant Tip of Major Langfitt to
Extend and Then Talk About 1t.

Major Langfitt's recommendation to
Washington, in relation to the lines of
Honolulu harbor, are in conflict with
the views of the chamber of commerce.
That is to say the shore line of the
harbor will cut off the extensions to
Sorenson's, Nuuanu and Brewer
wharves proposed by the chamber.
Major Bangfitt left behind him, how
ever, an unofficial statement that is of
great Importance. He said that it
would be several months before bis re-
port would be reached by the war de-
partment. 1t might be several months
later before it is acted upon. In the
meanwhile, the major says, the thing
for the Hawaiian government to do is
to go ahead and build the proposed
extensions. 1t is not believed for n
moment that the war department will
cut off the extensions so long as they
are of real value to the shipping inter-
ests.
1t seems to be that the authority of
the board of survey was merely 20 In
vestisRte and recommend. There was
not power to stop any work nor to al
ter any plans now under way. Not
until the war department issues an Of
fetal proclamation will the new barbor
lines be established.
Shipping agents who have heard Of
this statement, or unofficial rCcOmmen
dation of Major Langfitt to members
of the chamber of commerce, are anX-
ious for the Hawaiian government to
make a move at once along the lines
left to it. AS material has already
been advertised for, it should be mere
ly matter of days until work might
commence. OF course much depends
upon the superintendent of public
works, who may be found too busy in
the pinch.
President Atherton thinks there is
not need for another chamber of com
merce meeting on the matter. The %
sition of the body is we'll known and it
is felt that the government Should now
act Members of the chamber have
informed members of the cabinet as &c
the position of Major Langftt on the
10 ttnn.

TRAINING SHIPS FOR BOYS TENNIS TOURNAMENT PLAN AS TOURIST SEES WA NEW YORK PILOT BOAT
PROPOSED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR
REFORMATORIES.
An Experienced Navigator Makes
Suggestion in the Interest of the
Rising Generation-His Plan.

Editor Star. In The Star of April
20, 1899, | read of "a Crying Need" in
the way of industrial and reformatury
schools for Hawaiian youth who are
allowed to grow up i'm our midst a
hoodlum class, while we are spending
money on higher culture and wrap
ping ourselves in mantle of refine
ment and wealth.
How many and serious questions are
suggested by such an article. To one
reader the uppermost question raised
is Do refOrmatory schools reform?
Another question suggested is: Is
there nothing better to meet such
needs i'm these modern times.
have been thinking of plan for a
school ship for boys; ships for girls
will not answer, and perhaps others
can suggest some modern methods of
reform for them.
For more than twenty years the
writer has sailed from this port and
most of the time with Hawaiian sal
lors, and it is now disappointment to
be obliged to sail with any other class
of seamen. Give the Hawaiian boys a
chance Boys for a reform school
have more of the necessary stuff to
make men of than any other class. The
question is how to make them useful
men. A boy is ordered to the reform
school and to him it means going to
Jail.
The United States would for the ask
ing detail for the use of these Islands
one of their old class of warships with
out charge. Let her headquarters be
| in this harbor. Let her object be
| known as a Pacific marine school, de-
| signed to train and educate boys for
| the sea.
| Such a ship would have ample room
| to devote to healthful living quarters
and large thoroughly equipped depart
ments for educational work. A ship
| with sails (as well as steam) ought to
! be used, because those who are brought
up to watch the winds and waves are
| better prepared to handle steamships;
even though they have no masts nor
! sails
Have proper officers and educators,
non-political, a physician of reputa
| ton should attend the ship daily and
| accompany her on cruise.

confidence in his townsmen's apprecia.

The audience that was there justified
surprise in a man who is not yet ac-
customed to gauge things by the thor

standard which prevails in this COM
munity. The acquaintance of so many
people in the United States, even with
the name of Honolulu, is so recent that
we naturally assume it must be colo

more at home, more thoroughly accuS-

dent expectancy of a gathering, which
while it would tolerate nothing of the

that any one would attempt to impose
on it. 1t was an audience, sure of it

waiian Tennis Association.

placed with the Hebron Drug Compa-
ny on May 1st.
The association has ordered suitable
cups to be offered as some of the pri-
zes, and it is hoped these will be here
before the date of the tournament, SO
they can be exhibited.
Practice among the players of the
different clubs goes on in earnest, and
from all appearances the games of this
season will be quite interesting.
Since last year the Breretania club
has increased it's membership, the Pa
cifics have added new blood, and the
Punahous, with Professor Babbitt's as
sistance, will have quite an entry.
The committee for this years tour
nament call special attention to the
rules. and the umpires will be instruct.
ed to enforce them. 1t is hoped every
player whether he be a veteran or q
beginner in tournament, will peruse
carefully the rules, for the fewer In
fringements made, the lighter will be
the task of the umpire, linesman and
referee. The hope of the committee is
expressed in the following:
IF we play tennis, let us play it
correctly, and adhere strictly to tn.
rules. We have a reputation for cleaI
and manly sport: let us keep it,
A club has just been organized ii
Hilo, and there is some probability tina
it will send representatives to play il

committee hopes it will.

THE T. S. NEGUS ARRIVES FROM
SAN DIEGO.
Is a Speedy, Yacht-like Craft. That
Has Been in the Klondike Trade
Since Her Pilot Days o.

A two masted schooner with grace
full cutter lines came sailing into the
harbor this morning. Her graceful
curves and her appearance of speed
are due to the fact that she was for
merly the New York pilot boat T. S.
Negus. She retains the name, but she
is fallen i'm estate. After buffeting the
dangers of the Alaska seas and the
worse dangers of the E'ondike trade
for two trips she was suld to her pres
ent owner and master Frank Mania,
and now carries fertilizers
When sail was abandoned for steam
by the New York pilots number of
yacht like craft, speedy as the wind,
were thrown upon the market The T.
:. Negus was one of them. The Klon-
dixie excitement about that time SEEM
ed to open another career and the Ne
gus was brought around the Horn.
Her present owner says he was n
grocer in San Diego for thirteen years,
but his health failed, and he bought
the Negus partly to travel in her in
the hope of regaining his health and
partly to use her in trading.
He sailed with her from San Diego
April 9Th. The vessel was consigned to
Henry Waterhouse & Co, by II. 7.
Wood, the Hawaiian consul at San
Diego. Her cargo consists of LOCO bags
of fertilizer, about tons of salt. much

fish and a number of cases of lemons.
She brought all told nine men. Most Of
them came, it is said, attracted by the
opportunity to see the Islands at a
small expense.
Captain Mania says he experienced
calms and light winds all the way. He
may take freight back if it offers, but
he wants to sell the schooner here. She

city limits close upon 10000 paupers

Der compares most unfavorably with
the returns for a similar period during
the three preceding years, when times
were decidedly harder. OF the new
