Naval Station Said to

1t is hardly likely that Captain Block

Navy Department. The Illness which
caused him to be- invalided to Mare
Island Hospital will. 1t is said. pre-
vent him from returning to Hawaii,
and in that event some other naval Of
ficer Will be detailed to the command
of the local station.
Admiral Merry viii remain on duty
here until relieved and 1t is not unlike
ly that the Navy Department viii send
another man to Honolulu, as soon as
Captain Blocklinger arrives In San
Francisco, for not until then will it be
known in Washington that he, has been
sent home i'll from Samoa. Who viii
be finally detailed to take command
IS of course extremely problematical,
and in the meantime some OF the ofl-
GERS now stationed here may be or
dered to relieve Admiral Merry tenn
porarily, or until his successor arrives
In Honolulu. IL Captain Blocklinger's
health does not permit his detail to the
command.

HOME RULERS MAY
HOLD CONVENTION

Home Rulers spent several hours in
hard talking last evening though there
was nothing to be done withal. The
regular meeting OF the committee was
expected to be a lively one. owing to
the fact that progress Is being made in
the work Of organization and that there
was supposed to be resolution whicn
would invite into the ranks the party

During the talking it was said ny
some Of the leaders that there would
be no nominations by the Home Rulers

IL Is a question more gastronomicai
than scientific. The fish OF these waters
are much less abundant and OF lesser
variety than on the coast OF Mexico or
other tropical countries There Is prob
ably n good and sufficient reason for
this. Oceanic islands OF this kind are
often lacking In variety OF fish because
of the fact that on such n small piece
of land the varying conditions OF the
