Retire From The Farm.

Joseph Lannin has sold his fruit ranch
known as "Fruitland' on the outskirts
of Sunnyside and will retire to that
little city to make his future residing
place. He has purchased eight lots of
the Sunnyside townsite and will build a
cosy residence thereon with the in
tention Of making the place beautiful
home. The grounds will be planted to
shade trees, rose bushes and shrubberry
and otherwise embellished. Mr.. Lam
min will then devote his time to real
estate and nursery business. He is
agent for the Stark Bros. nursery of
Missouri and will handle all kinds of
fruit trees and other plants. Mr.. Lam
min has had 10 years experience in fruit
raising. In 1889 he had charge of the fruit
department of the Michigan state fair,
making the most creditable display ever
shown there. He is thoroughly familiar
with fruit raising, having set out and
planned some of the finest orchards in
the valley, in which he takes great pride
and which are now after a few years
growth, showing up fine. Fruit tree
culture is Mr.. Lannin's hobby and has
received much study and consideration
from him.

Hospital Improvements.

The Sisters have under contemplation
a new hospital or additions to the build
ing now used for that purpose. Plans
for the improvement are not yet fully
made, but it is expected that something
definite will be done at an early date.
In its present condition the hospital is
two small. The population of the valley
is growing, and the demands on the
hospital is growing in proportion.

JAMES MAKEE BRINGS HARD
STONE YESTERDAY:
Was Sent to Bishop Museum and No
one Seems To Know Anything OF
Past History.

A very interesting stone was brought
here yesterday from kilauea, Kauai
for the Bishop Museum. Considerably
mystery is attached to the stone al
though probably when Professor Brig
ham hears of the rock he will be able
to dispel all of the uncertainty that eX-
lists regarding it.
The rock which is about two and a
hGlt feet in height and about. two feet
across, is very irregular IN Shape and
weighs half ton. II is the very hard
variety of rock and is found at COM
paratiVely few places on the islands
Just what use the stone served to the
ancient HawaHans at kilauea is un-
certain. There are some deep grooves
running about the rock, THAI would in
diCate the places where ropes had been
attached to the rock to convey it from
one place to another. The rock Is dis
COlored with dirt and only in one place
does the natural dark blue color show.
This is spot that has been rounded
out as carefully as if done by a stone
mason's art. 1t was said by the native al
kilauea that this section of the rock
had been cut to make a bowl on the
side of the big stone.
The rock probably is the same vaIie-
ty of which the Hawaians used 10
make their axes, arrow and Spua,
heads iu ancient times. 1t was sug-
gestel that the rock might have seen
an idol but there seemed to be no such
shape to the thing, as would indicate
such use.
1t was also suggested that Manager
Hewitt Cf Kilauaa had sent the rock
down to be used as a monument. and
wanted to have the suitable inscTip-
tiOns inscribed or it, The fact that the
stone was intendCi Tor the Bishop Mu-
scum, however, disneHed the little joke

HAWAIANS GAIN
A BIG CONTRACT
TANKS TO BE BUILT
ENTIRELY BY NATIVES FROM
ISLAND MATERIAL.
SIXTY THOUSAND BARRELS AL
WAYS ON HAND.
Will Be Completed BY October To Sup
ply Oahu Plantations Who VIII Burn
Oil In Lieu of Coal.

The building of the two big petro-
leum tanks to be erected makai of lwi-
lei for the Pacific Oil Transportation
Company in readiness for the use of oil
by the plantations and railroad on this
island, will be commenced next week
by Hawaiian labor, under an Hawaiian
contractor from material furnished in
Hawaii.
Bids were let last Tuesday, June "a,
for the erection of two petroleum
tanks capable of holding sixty thou
sand barrels of petroleum, equivalent
to a gross capacity of two and half
million gallons. In competitive bids,
native Hawaiians submitted the lowest
figures.
The contract was let to David Rich
ards, 'at present employed on the Ho-
nolulu plantation. Richards learned
his trade at the Honolulu Iron Works
and is thoroughly competent to take
over the contract. The tanks will be
built of steel and have a concrete fOun-
dation for EACH resting on a sand
cushion The steel for the construction
will be obtained from the Honolulu
Iron Works and Richards has stated
that Hawaiians only will be employed
upon the entire contract, the whole
work being purely local in cOntradis-
tinctiOn to the custom, utilized by 9TH
el oil concerns which have tanks on
the other islands of sending away for
all material even to the lumber. Work
will commence next week, and, under
the contract Richards has 100 days in
which to complete the work, by which
time the sailing vessel bringing the
first consignment of petroleum, will be
ready to discharge.
The tanks will be erected on the cora
reef which is now inland, through hall
mile of shallow sea having been filled
! in with dredger material. The property
OF the company lies makai of the Iwi-
| lei section close to the slaughter house
o. the Metropolitan Meat Company
| The oil will be pumped from the tank:
of the vessel through pipes, and a con
stant supply kept on hand for planta'
| ton and other uses.
One OF the plantations has already
experimental satisfactorily with pc
| troeum in the engines and all are max
! ing ready to burn oil in lieu of coal
| The Honolulu plantation has alread!
large contracts with the Pacific Oi
| Transportation Company. The oil viii
! be sent down on tank cars along tn,
Oahu Railroad lines until such times al
the wharves of the plantation are bull
at Pearl Harbor after the channels il
| completed, when the vessels will dis
charge directly into the plantation
! tanks.

SAW BIG SHIP.

Captain Tullett of the steamer James
Makee which arrived yesterday from
her regular Kauai run, reports having
sighted big four-masted bark becalm-
ed off Waianae. The vessel was flying
signals, but Captain Tullett was un-
able to distinguish them. The vessel
was deeply ladened. Considerable un-
certainty exists as to her identity, now
that the Hawaiian Isles has arrived.
She may be the same vessel that Cap
tainW Thompson of the Niihau report
ed some days ago in the Kauai channel
and may be bound to San Francisco.
She is not the Fannie Kerr.

Anyone who has friend or relative
at the Settlement may go on any

the new rule, but may not go further

| There is to be no more personal con-
! tact, no more days on which visitors

/ annual trips of the Board of Health.

DID NOT CELEBRATE.
HUMPHREYS SENDS BAILIFFS
AFTER CLERKS.
They Took a Holiday to Celebrate
with Britons But Were Quickly Sum
moned Back To Toll

The First Circuit Court kept open for
business all day yesterday. Judge
Humphreys stood pat on his PROPOSE
tinn of not closing up for the BritOns
who were celebrating the coronation of
their monarch, and when he found that
some of the clerks were not toeing the
mark he sent bailiffs after them. The
bailitfs not only did not take holiday,
but they had extra hard work. looking
up the absent clerks.
Henry Smith, head clerk, left at noon
under the governors order closing gov
ernment offices at that hour, in honor
of the occasion Humphreys, who had
just got through with hearing court
matter, stuck to his post "a jewel of
consistency in knocking the holiday.
Some of the clerks, however, took their
cue from Henry Smith, and when the
noon whistle sounded they betook
themselves to holiday pastures, leav-
ing Humphreys in chambers to medi-
tate upon how hard royalty dies, while
Judge Robinson wrestled with a land
title case that has held his attention
for a week and shows few signs of
reaching a conclusion.
The holiday of the clerks was short
one. Humphreys happened to drop in
to the clerks office during the after
noon, and he observed the closed and
vacated desks. The clerks of the First
Circuit Court had gone to celebrate the
coronation of King Edward and Queen
Alexandra!
The faithful bailiffs were on hand,
and they were at once set forth to
bring back the royalist clerks and re-
store them to the democracy of the
Circuit Court. After a short hunt the
clerks were found, and duly summoned
to return to where the judge set in
chambers, ready for business that new
eT came.
1t was a very touching" episode to
the clerks who were not in it. and the
returning clerks were greeted with
laughter and joshes from the others, on
account of the half holiday they did
not take. The office kept open till the
usual hour for closing. There were nc
lawyers around, except the two that are
keeping Judge Robinson busy, and nc
business was done, but the principle OF
refusing to close in sympathy with
London's revival of medievalism" was
maintained and the judges decision not
TO close UP was carried out in full.
