OPENS TO-DAY.

The Home Bakery Cafe opens this af-
ternoon after being closed for few
weeks, for renovation and improve
ments. The most favorable circum-
stances attend them, being first of all
in one of the best locations in the city,
and the new company have behind them
both ample capital and experienced
men to manage. Honolulu is about to
have what has long been needed, a
really first-cass cafe. The visitor this
evening will find on entering everything
new, bright and clean, with accommo-
dating and experienced walters to serve
them. The unseen part of this estab-
lishment is what will make it popular,
and what is absolutely essential to the
success of a cafe. The kitchen contains
every facility for catering and is in
charge of a capable white chef. Dinner
will be served at p. m. today and the
public is invited to call and be con-
vinced that the Home Bakery Cafe Is
all that has been claimed for it,

HAD TO SLACK UP FOR SEVERAL
HOURS.


The smoke hanging over the Island of
Oahu and neighborhood was more dense
today than ever before. Very early this
morning it was impossible to see a man
a block away. All of the day the noun
tains back of the city have been OBJ
scured. At times it was quite hard 10
see Punchbowl from the business cen
ter.
The smoke seems to be general all
over the Island. At Waianae 1t is re-
ported to be thicker than in Honolulu,
having settled between the mountains
and sea about the plantation. Smoke
is reported at Waialua and other points.
Shipping is beginning to notice the
smoke. and the situation at sea is seri-
Gus. The schooner Alton came near go
ing on the reef off Diamond Head early
Monday morning on account of it.
The most notable instance of marine
inconvenience is the case of the Mari
posa. We picked up the cloud of smoke
about two days ago when some 900 miles
from Honolulu" said an officer of the
liner this morning. 1T then appeared
as a thin cloud, scarcely moving, hang
ing rather high in the heavens. AS we
approached nearer the Islands the hori-
zon darkened and finally we had the
smoke all around us. At first We
thought it was fog, such are met with
about San Franciso: but this theory
/
on the next that of the volcano.
Yesterday afternoon the smoke was
very dense. 1t was impossible to see
many miles ahead. At 2 o'clock this
morning we came in the neighborhood
of this Island and had to slow up. 1t
was dangerous to go farther for we
could see nothing ahead. From that
time to I O'Clock we were not far off
! KokO Head. Had it not been for the
smoke we would have been in port be-
| fore daylight.
"No, though lying straight off the ISL
| and we could not see it.. Even after
| daylight when we came closer in, Koko
Head was not distinguishable. We pro-
ceeded around the heads slowly and
carefully"
| When told that the vessel was not
seen until she was off Diamond Head
and right i'm front of the signal station
! the officer said he was not surprised al
all for he thought 1t would be impos-
sible to make out a ship more than a
| mile away.

JOHN w. WIDMAN.

A report in San Francisco that i. II.

died here a short time ago is denied
there and is known here to be untrue.
The gentleman underwent an opera

getting along nicely. A late Call has

IwALANI BRINGS LATEST FROM
THE ERUPTION.
Hilo Engulfed in Smoke and a Dark
Volcanic Cloud Hangs over the ISL
and-Outbreak Increasing.

The Iwalani arrived this morning
from Honokaa with later news from
the volcanic eruption on Hawaii.
Among her passengers was Deputy At
tOrney- General Dole, who was in Ha-
makua on court business.
The most interesting thing brought
by the steamer was that the lava flow
is apparently filling up the table land
between Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea
near or at the Humuula sheep ranch
The smoke from the active crater is
more dense than ever before and the
light at night is something wonderful
"Hilo and the whole island of Ha-
waii is covered with smoke" reports
an officer of the vessel. Just before
the Iwalani sailed from Hamakua a
telephone message from Hilo stated
that the smoke over the town was sc
dense that the eruption on the noun
tain could no longer be seen from that
point.
1t is also learned that the smoke is
dense on the Hamakua, Kohala and
Kona coasts. One steamer officer re-
ports that it so thick that a ship car
not be seen a hundred yards away
Mr.. Dole reports considerable excite
ment on the big island and a rush OF
people to the scene of the eruption
Smoke is thick everywhere and indica.
tions are that the outbreak is increas
ing in violence.
1t is reported from parties that have
returned from the outbreak that the
lava flow is down fifteen miles from
the starting point. This would take
it to if not beyond the sheep ranch.
j. F. O'Connor, the guide, who re
turned yesterday did not go up to the
active crater. He just went far enough
to locate the eruption and the course
| of the flow.
Harry Kleugel was right down a
the crater. He made a number o.
! memoranda on the spot of the appear
ance of the eruption and flow. Hi
story is substantially the same as tina
of Frank Davey, published yesterday

MIR. TOWNSEND TELLS OF LOCAL
SCHOOL SYSTEM.
Responds to Speech Of National Com
sions-Over 2OOO Teachers.

The National Educational Associati ton
opened at Los Angeles on the afternoon
of July H. In the hall were 1000 teach
ers from all parts of the Union. All of
the Hawaiian delegation was there, and
a Hawaiian flag was displayed among
the decorations on the speakers plat
form.
Governor Gage was one of the speak
ers on the opening day. Dr.-Elmer f.
Brown, who was in Honolulu two years
ago as head of the summer school, and
is so pleasantly remembered generally,
was another. He made one of the Wit
tiest and best speeches of the day, wet
coming the visitors to California.
Hawaii came to the fore at the even
ing session when w. T. Harris, United
States Commissioner of Education, de-
| lvered an address on the subject of
AN Educational Policy for our new
Possessions" treating the difficulties in
this line that beset Cuba, Hawaii and
other islands of the sea. This brought
out response from Honolulu, which
is given in the press dispatches as fol-
| lows:
Mrs. Emma L. Dillingham; was to
! have dealt with the Hawaiian school
| question to some extent by giving an
| address reviewing the history of the
| existing schools in the Islands. Owing
| to her unavoidable absence this pha sc
of the subject had to be foregone, hut
| Henry S. Townsend, Inspector-Genera

made to think and feel as Anglo -SaXons

CITY Of PARIS IS SAVED
GETS CLEAR OF THE ROCKS INTO
DEEP WATER.
Success of Salvage Operations Of Ger
man Firm-The Great Liner viii
Again Plough the Main.

FALMOUTH, England July 12-The
coast guard reports that, as the Paris
began to move and to tug at her an
chors this morning. the crew was obllg-
ed to let out cables. and in about an
hour the liner got quite clear of the rock
and into deep water.
LONDON, July 1.-THE salvors have
moved the American line steamer Paris
astern for distance of $50 yards and
have shifted the vessels position slight
ly to the eastward. They hope to be
able to get the after stoke hold fires
alight.
The Paris is now clear of the rocks.
The sea is smooth, but heavy fog pre-
walls tonight.
The intention of the salvors was sim
ply to slew the stern of the liner so as
to facilitate the operations of the divers
but it was found that she moved more
freely than was expected Three sal
wage boats alone practically removed
her from critical position unaided. She
still has distinct list to the starboard
and cannot be assumed as out of dan
ger. The tugs are preparing to tow her
to Falmouth harbor.
The German salvors are elated at
their unexpected success in floating the
Paris. She had been weighted with
nearly a thousand tons of granite at
/ the stern, with a view of hosting her
bows from the rock. The divers had
| difficulty in getting at the rock and this
was the reason for the tentative effort
| to move her.
! 1t was then decided that the vessel,
{ being in a position of comparative
safety. should remain where she was
! for the night and that the divers should
| continue their work of patching the
| hull, so as to minimize the risk of tow
| ing. Unless something unforeseen oc-
ours the Paris will be towed to Fall
mouth tomorrow, and if, on inspection,
| her condition warrants it, she will be
! taken to Southampton or to some other
| dock for repairs
The weather late this evening is rath-
er unfaVorable. the indications being
rain, fog, falling barometer and a
| slight wind from the southeast. The
pumps are coping with the water and
| there is no danger of the vessel sink
! ing. 1t is understood that the salvors
are the same parties who fioated the
! Peninsular and Oriental steamer China,
which went ashore in March last year
on AZadea point

FORMALIN WOULD NOT KILL THE
BACILLI
Microbes Smoked on Saturday are Still
Alive-Sulphur Proved the Best Rem
edy-Report Today

The experiment of Or. Day and DR..
Alvarez with FOrmalin as a means of
destroying bacteria of contagious dis
eases, made last Saturday, proved al
most if not a total failure.
The Board of Health will be informed
this afternoon that most of the mi
crobes used in the experiment are
alive, and that perhaps all are in a
state to be resuscitated. This will be
disappointment to those who have so
steadfastly advocated the new process
of fumigation.
On the other hand the experiment
made by Mr.. Reynolds with sulphur
has proved "a success. The bugs
smoked on Sunday are mighty dead.
This is the report of the specialist after
thorough examination this morning.
That Formalin is first-class as a dis
infectant is undeniable, but it's use as
a destructive force will not again be
attempted here. 1t would seem that
the success of the sulphur treatment
shows conclusively that it is effective
in fumigating infected freight, and it
will in future be used exclusively here.
1t is stated that the Formalin is APP
piled in such a way that it cannot get
into the freight At present the
method of introducing it into the
freight room is through a pipe and
nozzle and a small hole in the wall
1t is considered impossible to inject
! sufficient smoke into the room by this
method to destroy the bacteria, even
were the preparation perfect in its
| effect.
On the other hand there is an en-
! gine of considerable power to handle
! the sulphur fumes and the room is
! literally loaded with smoke. On that
as much as anything else, perhaps
hinges the success of the latter expert

of the Shamrock on Sunday says: 1T
is generally conceded that she is the
fastest light-weather craft in the So

ed very easy on the helm, quite up to
expectations. Her canvas filled well
and the trial was extremely satisfac-
tory in every way"
A member of the crew said to the
correspondent of the Associated Press:
THE Shamrock will do what she is
built for and will beat the Columbia.
She sailed admirably, without a hitch
and answered her helm to perfection,
which is one of the greatest consider
ations. We are going to win, but it is
impossible yet to judge of the yachts
full capacity"
Sir Thomas Upton expressed himself
as satisfied with the spin"
