SHARKS COME BACK
TO PEARL HARBOR


4 Yachtsmen report that the sharks,
turtle and hihimanu are returning to
Pearl Harbor. Until dredging opera
tions commenced the turtles and hihi-
manus could frequently be seen sun
ming themselves on the surface of the
inland waters while a shark hunt was
always productive.
The presence of the big clam-shell
scoop and later the huge snake-iike
suction pipe in mid-channel seemed,
however, to scare away the ffnny life
that lives alternately inside and out
side the bar and for a long time little
was seen of these specimens.
A few weeks ago, however, the
sharks reappeared and their fins were
seen frequently gliding along the
channels. The smaller fish of the
lochs once more began to be harassed
and made known the presence of the
larger predatory fish from the open
sea by flushing from the surface like
coveys of frightened birds.
Then the hihimanu came back and
next the turtle so that Pearl Harbor
once more is the haunt of big game,
from the anglers standpoint.

to bosses whose rivalry has heretofore
never failed to divide the political
front of the colony at critical juno
lures. The Portuguese local paper
Liberdad, is heartily supporting the
movement.
Places are in view for the schools
and fund of money is in hand. The
teachers are not yet all appointed, but
the promoters have selected an able
faculty of lecturers whose services
they hope to procure. These are Dis
trict Attorney r. w. Breckons, Judge
A. s. Humphreys and Assistant Dis
trict Attorney J. j. Dunno.
It is hoped to have the whole institu-
ton started in January. J. M. Ca
mara, president of the Portuguese
Republican Club, was empowered at a
recent meeting to go ahead with the
preliminary arrangements.
From what is expected of the Punch
bowl University of Political Science by
some of its promoters the colony will
he in a position by next general cleo
ton to retire j. NJ. Vivas as its law
giver, with a vote of thanks for his
long period of service and perhaps a

THE PROJECTED PUNCHBOWL
UNIVERSITY OF POLITICS

Great oaks from little acorns grow"
OF all the wise old sayings, none have
more exemplifications of their truth,
in the institutions of modern civiliZa-
ton and philanthropy, than the one
just quoted.
So, from the movement now being
inaugurated in the Portuguese colony
of Honolulu, the prophetic vision may
descry the germ of great educational
foundation. The University of Punch
bowl to make Palo Alto paler allo-
gether than it may now be in COM
parison with the greatest of the world S
older seats of learning.
This institution is being planned up
on scientific if humble basis. Tribu-
tary to the university and integraIly
part of it will be a number of colleges,
whose students of all grades will have
the benefit of regular lectures by mem
bers of the university faculty At
first the number will be two-one for
the elder members of the colony and
another for the rising generation there
of.
Both schools will have their sessions
in the evenings. Each will have its
own principal, with probably some as
sistants. At stated times the schools
will be brought together for the hear
ing of lectures from members of the
university faculty. While the curricu-
la will nave a general educational
bearing in cases where needed, politi-
cal science and economy will be the
specialties. Instruction in the Ameri-
can system Of government. from mu-
nicipal up to federal will be sedulously
impaired. Tuition in the subordinate
schools is to be in the Portuguese
language, both for the sake of exact
definition and because there is strong
feeling in favor of preserving the
mother tongue of the colony English
will of necessity, at the same time, be
cultivated to some extent, more espe-
cially as the professors will employ
English in lecturing.
Although the enterprise is being pro-
NOTED by the Portuguese Republican
Club, the institution is intended to be
strictly on-partisan-except per-
haps, as it may be calculated to deliver
the Portuguese voters from thraldom

The Chinese games are not running.
They have been making preparations TO
start UP business on large scale after

the police in raiding che ia games has
deferred them from their contemplated
action. Smaller Chinese games are rum

is seventy-five cents and a dollar. and
