About half an hour before meals the
chemists who were conducting the
dietary studies were on hand TO weigh
the food materials, which were sent
to the table before the meal began.
In concluding the report on the di-
etary studies the authors make this
interesting observation:
THE especially large proportion OF
protein observed in the dietary stud
les of the university boat crews, Of
football teams, of the professional ath-
lete and of the pugilist, as compared
with the dietary studies of college
men with ordinary exercise, and with
ordinary families of workingmen and
professional men, accord well with a
view not uncommon Of late among
psychologists. According to this view
men who perform continued muscular
labor, even if 1t Is active enough to
rake the total amount large. do not
require especially large amounts of
protein in their food so long rs they
undergo no special mental strain OF
muscular fatigue, the principal re.
quirements being an abundant supply
of easily digested food material.
ION the contrary, when a man OF
animal must perform intense muscu
lar work for a short period of time
and is therefore under more or less
nervous as well as muscular strain
considerably larger supply of pro
tein seems to be required than under
normal conditions Of slow, long con
tinued work. In other words, If 9
large amount of work must be done
in short time considerable excess
of protein is required in the food

San Francisco, Cal, June A.
Local warehouses for some time past
have been crowded with freight for
Honolulu awaiting the new tariff
which becomes effective to-day in
Hawaii. From now on goods will be
shipped to the islands as rapidly as
possible. The Honolulu Automobile
Co. has 60, 900 dollars worth of hacks
and carriages stored at Post Costa,
on which the old duty would have
been 1900 dollars, but they now will
be admitted free. Cigar smokers on
the Islandslwill lose by the new reve-
nue. laws. Hawaiians smoke Manila
cigars which formerly were admitted
free of duty and sold at two and four
cents apiece. Dealers have laid in
large supplies, as under the new duty
the price will be trebled. Hereafter
the following articles manufactured or
produced in the United States cannot
be exported to the territory of Hawaii
in bond without payment of tax nor
with the benefits of drawbacks as here
tofore. Distilled spirits, stills and
worms, tobacco, snuff, cigars, cigar
cites, fermented liquors, playing
cards, oleomargarine, mixed -four,

Honolulu state that preparations were
being made for the Inauguration of

osition was turned down.
