SPECIAL EDITION
OF THE FRIEND
CELEBRATES IT'S SIXTIETH AN
DRAwAL OF MISSIONARY BOARD

The Friend celebrates the occasion of
its sixtieth anniversary and marks the
withdrawal of the American Board of
Missions after eighty years occupancy
in Hawaii, with a special edition of
forty pages on the best of paper, en-
bellished with forty illustrations, gem
orally occupying at least a third of a
page, gathered within an attractive
poster cover.
The number has been awaited with
much interest by all those interested in
Hawaiian religious history, so closely
identified with other island happenings
and the issue makes a practical souve-
mir of Hawaii for four score years that
perhaps never has been surpassed in
general interest.
The writer's best acquainted with
their subjects have been drawn upon
and old albums searched through for
faded photos and drawings that could
be used to show the things of yesterday
Besides an article by the Secretary of
the American board on the conversion
of the islands, other subjects and their
authors write on Conditions in the ISL
and Prior to 1920 by Mrs. e. Van Cleve
Hall; Stations of the Missions by Cur
tbs j. Lyons; Attitude of the Early
Chiefs by Senero Bishop Bible Trans
lation by Mrs. Coan; Early Industrial
reaching, Prof. Alexander; Revival of
81 and '3S by Serene Bishop, also Early
Church Building. Miss Chamberlain,
the Revs. Gulick, o. p. Emerson, and
II. H. Parker, Governor Dole, w. N.
Armstrong, ] b. Atherton, w. r..
Castle and others contribute unique in
formation in interesting style.
| The poster cover in several colors re-
presents the arrival of a whaler at the
islands, similar to those which brought
the missionaries while the back shows
a map of the group with color markings
showing original mission stations and
churches The Illustrations consist of
reproduction of halftones in decorative
groups and a series of pen and ink
drawings typical of past and present
conditions. They were drawn and de-

HARBOR
TO WAIKIKI
DOCKS AND SLIPS MAY BE BUILT
LULU GTBRALTER OF PACIFIC.

In the opinion of several men who
have given their attention to the sub
ject, the future harbor of Honolulu will
see a long series of slips and wharves
extending, not towards Kalihi but to-
wards Diamond Head. Behring'S have
been made and the dredging is said to
be feasible, SO that the Beach road may
be turned into practical value as a
driveway for wagons and drays from
the vessels of steamer lines yet to come.
The discussion of feIer~l sit has OPEN
ed up several plans for the extension
of the harbor which have hitherto been
unsupported by the general public
During the committee meeting of
Saturday morning on the subject of
federal sites and building, the question
of the probable growth of the harbor
was discussed at some length. Collec-
tor Stackable stated that his present
location was practically a central one
for his work, taking as extremes the
railroad wharf toward Eva and the
Channel or Quarantine wharf towards
Waikiki. While central he added that
the wide range of the harbor created
long distances to travel and the GUS
toms employees were forced to pay their
own transportation expenses.
George R. Carter thought the collec-
tor mistaken as to his central position
at least as far as the future was con-
cerned and thought the trend of extern
sion Ewawards would soon leave him to
one side. Frank Dodge speaking as a
surveyor, thought that the present Gus
tom House was not more than a block
out of the way of either extremes of the
departments scope of action and he
thought the present site would continue
to be central.
Argument followed as to the oppOr-
tunities for slips and moorings on the
Eva side of the Channel as opposed to
the apparently limited room on the
Waikiki side and Mr.. Dodge, made the
statement, corroborated by others pre-
sent, that he believed Honolulu would
ultimately see a line of slips extending
along the Beach road. Behring'S had
been made by him all the way to Wal
kiki and the results showed the posi-
bility of dredging and clearing. He
thought this was the natural extension
of the harbor, not towards Eva.
1t is generally thought that the ques-
tion of harbor extension is liable to be
modified by the decision of the national
government as to naval and military
Notifications. Military experts who
have visited here have announced the
strategic Importance of Hawaii and
voiced their opinion that if Honolulu
was fortified at all it should be made
practically impregnable to prevent its
being seized by a foreign fleet and used
as a base of supplies from which to
harass the Pacific Coast.
officers of the artillery now located
here will not be surprised if an entire
regiment of Coast artillery is ultimate
ly located here. which means the plac-
ing of perhaps a hundred disappearing
guns in protection of Honolulu, max
ing the place so formidable that it
will become the Gibralter of the Pacific
and let well alone by conflicting pow
ers. The location of these guns may
be made on lands yet to be condemned
or bought and may materially alter pro-
posed harbor extension.

HOPE
FOR PARDON
PARDON DAY" WILL SOON BE
HERE-ONE MAN MAY RECEIVE
HIS LIBERTY.

The most interesting time of the year
for prisoners serving sentences at Oahu
prison is approaching. Pardon Day"
will soon be here and there are several
prisoners who are eagerly looking for
ward to favorable action on their APP
plications.
No intimation has as yet been given
by the Governor of his intentions re-
garding the applications for pardon.
Two applications which have favorable
endorsement from High Sheriff Brown,
Tailor Henry and the prison commits
siOners have been filed with the exc
cutive. One of them is of Otsuga a
Japanese who was convicted of murder
in the first degree on Maui and sentence
ed to be hanged. This sentence was
committed to life Imprisonment and
later this Communication was reduced to
20 years Imprisonment. The prisoner
has been so docile and amenable in his
demeanor that the officials are favor
ably impressed with his request for a
pardon. He has already served ten
years of his sentence.
The other application is for cOmmu-
tation on behalf of Kakaio a native
man who is serving a 20 year sentence
for manslaughter on Maui The pri-
soner has served ten years. The APP
plication seeks for five years cOmmu-
tatiOn.
There is an unwritten rule in the
matter of pardons that they shall If
possible, be granted on New Years
day. This is a rule which is followed
all over the Mainland and it has also
been the custom in these islands. New
Years Day has therefore, come to be
known as Pardon Day" Whether it
will bring forth the blessings of liberty
in these islands in the present instance
remains to be seen.
While all of the prisoners are not
indulging in any wild hopes for par
dons, they are eagerly looking forward
to the annual Christmas luau which
Tailor Henry gives. The officials at
the Jail will first be served at noon after
which the prisoners will enjoy the luau
There will be pig, fish, poi, potatoes,
soda water cigars, cakes and a few
other delicacies that may be provided.
AT the same hour the members of the
police force will sit down to their an
nual luau at the police station. The
prisoners at the police station will also
have a luau after the officers shall have
finished the meal.

been presented in Honolulu, amateur or
professional. MY Turn Next" COM
ing second on the program, lasts for
about three quarters of an hour and is

together that they seem logical. The
piece is comedy pure and simple and is
sure of success. George Potter plays
the leading role with Mrs. William
Montrose Graham, Miss Hartnagle,
Ward w. Z. Stanley, r. w. Single
and Allan Dunn assisting.

GAME or CHESS DOES NOT PAY.
Earnings of the WORLDS Be~t Players
Surprisingly Small

Apropos OF the great chess tourna-
mont which has attracted attention at
Monte Carlo. there Is no game In the
world at which II is so difficult to make
money as chess. Chess Is unquestion-
ably the most scientific pastime In ex-
istenee and requires very high de-
gree OF intelligence TO excel at IL. but
professional chess-players are a sipsu-
larry ill-paid. body OF men. Putting
aside jockeys-who are more or less
millionairos-fourth- players OF
many games earn far more than the
most distinguished chess players.
Manuel Lasker, the worlds greatest
chess player. has lately been appointed
to a professorship OF mathematics AT

In the Monte Carlo tournament are
men OF worldwide fame. but most OF
them are glad to compete for prizes Of
which the highest is only worth a few
hundred pounds, and such tournaments
only occur once In two or three years
A professional chess-playor's earn
ings for the most part consist Of such
fees as he receives for teaching chess

TO STOP RAILWAY COLLISIONS.
Plan to Utilize the Wireless Biography
OF Marconi.

Marconi Of wireless telegraph fame
has a plan OF utilizing his system for
the absolute prevention of collision
accidents on railroads. and the ar
rangemont he proposes could be in
stalled on every railroad IN the coun-
try at a less expense than any other
form Of safety devices or signals. The
fact that he has given considerable
thought to the matter is importar'
for the public confidence is strong in
man OF his scientific attachments,
but the proof he offers that his plan
is simple, cheap and practical in its
operations at all times gives It a
greater significance.
As We all know, Marconi has devised
the means to detect the vibrations set
up by the sparkling Of an induction
coil More than that he Is able to do.
for he can so arrange his transmitting
apparatus that only a certain length
Of ether wave shall be sent out. or.
more properly speaking. a certain ar
rangement OF the transmitting ap-
paratus will send out only one con-
slant length OF wave. Another ar
rangement will send out another
length OF wave. and so on to almost
inhnity. since the different rates Of
vibration possible for these kinds Of
ether waves vary from hundreds Of
thousands to billions per second. The
difficulty has previously been With the
receiving apparatus.
II was necessary to get each sepa-
rate receiver so arranged that II would
respond only TO the vibrations sent
out by particular transmitter. This
difficulty Marconi has already over
come. Apply the principle now 70 use
on moving trains. As It has been
shown, in the case OF sending mes
sages the vibrations are sent ont in
the order OF Morse code words. II
would be simple enough to keep the
transmitier in operation all the time.
provided the battery power was re-
newed when necessary. - Leslie's
