SOME CHANGES IN THE ISLAND
STEAMERS.
Shore Boats to be Made Into Life
Boats-Rules Made for the Fire
Drills.

Captains Whitney and Lehners, in
spectOrs OF hulls and boilers, have been
examining the various island steamers
in Honolulu and as a result of their
inspections some considerable changes
have been ordered. 1t has been stated
that some of the vessels would be tied
up If the orders We're not complied with
at once, but the inspectors will allow
time for most of the alterations.
The Inter-lsland steamer Mikahala
was placed on the drydOCk and eXamin-
ed by Captain Whitney this morning.
number of changes have been order
ed down below and the steamer will
have to have additional safeguards
for passengers, which have been order
ed placed on all vessels that carry pas
sengers.
In future every island steamer that
carries passengers will have to have
life-preserver for every person on
board, members of the crew included.
The shore boats will have to be made
into life boats, by the addition of air
tight compartments and there will have
to be a certain amount of life boat
accommodation in proportion to the
number of people allowed on board.
Life RATS are acceptable as substitutes
for life boats, and the Inter-Island
company has sent for half q dozen life
RATS.
flIe uflll Is dnOtnef new lnlnS tndL
is being introduced. The Inter- Island
company has made up a scheme of fire
drill for it's vessels and has posted cir
culars on all the vessels. The orders
provide that there shall be one fire drill,
with lowering of boats from the davits,
on every trip. Complete directions are
given in the posted notice to every
officer and member of the crew, as to
what he shall do in case of fire alarm.
The purser has the best job. He is to
stay with the passengers and allay eN-
citement.
The steamship companies are also or
dering axes, hose, etc, so that the ves-
sells may carry the required outfits.
Life preservers also have TO be import
ed, together with many other things
needed to comply with American laws.
The work of the inspectors will be a
source of much expense to the COM
panies. as in the past the island boats
have been in many respects different
from the requirements of American
law.

been examined by the inspectors and

NUUANU STREAM Is STEADILY
RISING.
a Sharp Watch Being Kept by the
Road Department to be Ready for
Any Emergency.

There was a tremendous fall of rain
in Nuuanu valley this morning and a
coniderable rise in Nuuanu stream is
expected during the afternoon. Road
Supervisor Campbell is a bit uneasy
about the situation and is kesping a
careful watch on the stream for serious
developments. 1t usually takes from
two to six hours for the water to get
down from the valley At this hour
the stream is quite flush and is rising
How long it will keep up it is impossi-
bic to tell, except that in view of the
very wet condition of the valley, it is
feared that the worst of the freshet
is still on the way. 1t is not thought
however that the strong, new bridges
will be any danger.
The heavy showers of this morning
came near doing serious damage along
Alakea street from Hotel to the cleo
trio light house. At the corner Of Ala
kea and Queen the flood burst over the
curbing and a storm embankment laid
there, rushed into the houses and drove
the Chinese occupants to their second
floors. A great deal of damage was
done to goods in the Eva -makai corner
where the water was nearly two feet
deep. The restaurant next door was al
so flooded Most of the Cinnamon were
terrified at the sudden invasion of
water and did not try to save anything.
Around the brick block across the
street the water arose over the side
walk and to within an inch of the door
ways of the stores and restaurants.
Proprietors and clerks in these places
had merry scramble to get perishable
goods above the danger point. The Of
flee building of the Hawaiian Electric
Company, though better protected,
came also near being under water. The
flood rose to the top of the door line and
there stopped. One inch more and the
result can be imagined. For more than
an hour that portion of Alakea street
was impossible for pedestrians. Two
policemen kept guard there to see that
all went we'll Queen street from the
Union Feed Company's store to Rich
ards street was a great sight. The wa
ter was from foot to two feet deep.
and the sidewalks were inundated all
along save for a short stretch on the
mauka side.
The cause of the flood was the heavy
dOwnpour against the hills back of the
city. Water from Punchbowl, Emma
and Berstania streets fairly rolled
down, Alakea in torrents. In less than
fifteen minutes it was up to the curb
ing at the Mutual telephone office and
danger was there threatened of a good
soaking.
Reports from Puunui, at the head of
Wyllie street, are to the effect that the
houses are all under water and the
people have to wade out to leave their
homes at all.
One of the telephone company's poles
on Kaahumanu street near the Bishop
bank was blown down today. The
heavy timber was rotten and narrowly
missed striking one of the Smiths
busses which was passing, The tele-
phone service in that section was Grip
pied for several hours.

CHINESE ARE WORRIED RESULTS OF INSPECTION
FEAR STORM MAY MAR THEIR
NEW YEARS FUN.
Many Entertainments Planned by the
Followers of Confucius-Governm
Band will be Asked to Play.

Chinese are worried considerably over
the prevailing storm. When the wind
blew and the rain fell last week they
did not concern themselves to any
great extent regarding it, but now that
the storm shows signs of continuing in
definitely they begin to fear that it
will interfere with their annual New
Years celebration. ........ ......
The celebration this year will be quite
elaborate for the Chinese are shy"
that of last of last year on account Of
the plague. The present celebration
however will, it is thought, prove all
that could be desired from the stand
point of a Chinese.
In addition to the hospitable private
entertainments which are to be pro-
Yided, there will be special celebra tions
at the rooms of the Bow Wong Wu and
the United Chinese Society. The Bow
Wongs propose to show that they are
westernized and in addition to a repast
of Chinese delicacies they will have ice
cream, cake and other toothsome arti-
cles which the white man likes. The
Bow Wongs will keep open house.
The friends of the society are cordially
invited to come and mingle.
The Chinese also desire to secure the
attendance of the government band.
Where the band will play has not been
determined, provided OF course. that
permission for it's attendance can be
secured. The idea will be to make the
musical entertainment a non-partisan
affair where the friends of the Consul
and the Bow Wongs can gather with
out fear of any disagreement
Two celebrations are to be given. The
majority of the Chinese will observe
Monday the 18th, as their New Years
day while the conservative element
headed by Consul Yang Wal Ping and
delay their celebration until Tuesday.

COLONIST CLARK IN Town
DRIVES HERE IN TRUE FARMER
STYLE.
Discourses on Army Worms Without
Future for the California Colony

Byron II. Clark of the California CO.
lony at Wahiawa was in town today.
Farmer Clark came in, in genuine far
mer style, driving his team the whole
20 miles. 1t was not because of any bu-
collie objection to trains that he drove
in, but because of a mishap to which all
suburbanites the world over. are liable.
He missed his train.
He drove from the colony to the sta
tiOn on the Oahu Railroad expecting to
take the train there and come to the
city. But possibly it being a rainy
morning, he was little later doing the
chores than usual, or something. Any
way Colonist Clark missed his train
and so concluded to drive on into town.
Agriculturist Clark says the army
worms have proved themselves a pest
on the WahiaWa reservation, especially
to garden vegetables, though he does
not on that account aVow any anti
Imperialist or anti Militarism senti-
ments.
'Cut-worms, too have proved them
selves unwelcome assistants to labor.
Cincinnatus Clark says he prefers to
have his crops cut by artificial means.
Still the pastoral Clark is confident that
remedies and defenses will be found
against these insect pests; in fact they
are being found now. Besides they at
tack only certain kinds of crops, or
have only done so thus far, leaving
many other crops that can be grown,
unharmed. The newness of the soil,
the experimental nature of the efforts
of the colony all have to be taken into
consideration, and Rancher Clark feels
that already the pTacticability of gen.
eral farming on these islands has beer
demonstrated.
Poultry does WELL and il is thought
will prove a profitable industry. This
| statement was not advanced by Mr..
Clark as any argument against the in

THE DoRIC IN QUARANTINE.

SAN FRANCISCO, February 2.-Late
yesterday afternoon the steamer Doric
reached port from China and Japan
via Honolulu, ana at once went into
quarantine, having arrived after sun
set 1t was emphatically stated last
night that no news would come from
the Doric until this morning. As the
transport Warren now out thirty-three
days from Manila, is believed to have
put into Honolulu on account of one of
her boilers being disabled. the Doric is
expected to bring news of the vessel,
which is anXiously awaited. Tnforma-
tion concerning the ship Charmer over
due on the trip from Puget sound to
Kahului, is also expected by the Doric.
