SAILORS UNION
IS TO ACT
WILL APPEAL TO COAST BRANCH
Es TO SECURE LEGISLATION
AGAINST Overlooking SHIPS.

Had there been a quorum present last
night at the weekly meeting of the Sail
ors' Union, some action along the lines
suggested by the Star regarding the
overlooking of sailing vessels, would
have been taken by the sailors Owing
to inability of members to attend in
sufficient force however, the matter
was postponed until the meeting next
week.
That some action looking to reform
will be taken, seems certain. The local
members of the Union are very much
aroused over the probable fate of the
ship Florence and they propose to en-
list the aid of the entire organization
of coast sailors to effect some reform
in the matter of overlooking of vessels.
The matter will probably come up in
report on the subject by ]. p. Ras-
mussen, the agent of the local branch
of the Sailors Union. = He will incor-
porate In his regular report to the main
office in San Francisco the fact that
the local Sailors Union is very much
aroused to the necessity of some action
on the subject. The Sailors Union in
San Francisco will be asked to lend it's
aid in the matter and to cooperate with
the local union. 1t is not improbable
that the entire Sailors Union all over
the Pacific coast will unite on this mat
ter and endeavor to secure some Con-
gressional legislation. The local people
seem to think that the worst offenders
in the overlooking of vessels are the
coal ships that go from the Sound to
the islands or from the Sound ports to
San Francisco.

KAIMI[OA AGAIN
IN COMMISSION
STARTED YESTERDAY UPON HER
CAREER AS AN OIL CARRIER.
PUT FUEL ABOARD ALAMEDA.

The Z old rejuvenated Kaimiloa is
again factor in the worlds events.
While she does not boast such a proud
and distinctive occupation as the sOli-
tary warship of a Conquering nation,
she gives promise of becoming quite a
respectable member of the commercial
family.
The vessel was used yesterday for the
first time in her new capacity as fuel
oil carrier for the port Of Honolulu.
She has been undergoing repairs for
some months past at the Eva end of
the harbor. Her tanks were recently
pumped full of oil and yesterday about
noon, she was towed over alongside the
S. S. Alameda and there discharged oil
into the mail vessel. The tug Rover's
pumps were used to transfer the oil
from the Kaimiloa into the Alameda.
The Kaimiloa is also being used today
to supply the tanks of the Alameda
with Oil

the Oceanic wharf discharging freight
from the starboard side and loading
sugar from the port side.s The steam

no piles of coal no gang of shovelling

is being accomplished with practically
as little trouble and noise as is the fill
ing of the liners water tanks,
The Alameda hauled over to the Rail-
way wharf last night and loaded 5120
bags of sugar. She hauled back to the
Oceanic berth this morning. She sails

DEAD SEA EVAPORATION.

Scientific observation justities the es-
innate that a daily average of 6,5OO'OOO
tons of water is received into the Dead
sea from the Jordan and other sources
during the year. During the
rainy season the amount 'isv very much
greater during the dry season 1t is OF
course, very much less, but this average
will be maintained year after year,
There is no outlet and the level is Kept
down by evaporation only which IS
very rapid because of the lntenese neat
the dry atmosphere and the dry wind
which are constantly blowing down the
gorges between the mountains. This
evaporation causes al haze or mist to
hang over the lake at all times, and'
when 1t is more rapid than usual, heavy
clouds form and thunder storms some
times rage with great violence in the
pocket between the cliffs, even in the
dry season. A food of rain often fails
upon the surface of the sea when the
sun in shining, and the atmosphere
is as dry as bone half mile from the
shore. The mountains around the
Dead sea are rarely seen with dis
tinctness because of this haze,

HIGHER EDUCATION
OF CHILDREN
by an Easy Method.

BY an Easy Method.
How often does the thought flash
through fond mothers or fathers
mind, what will be the future of my
children, supposing they should be sud-
denly left either motherless or father
less, or both? The grim reaper knows
no distinction Of age, class or nation
ality, and is sure to come. When, we
cannot tell! What shall l do to pro-
tect them in such a case? or what can
do to place them in a position when
they attain their majority for facing a
cold, hard world whose selfish aims
and plans they must accustom them
selves to earlier or later. There is one
easy way and that Is to save a small
stated sum each month, place it safely
at interest, and If commenced at rea-
sonably early age, in few years more
they can be given practical education
in some special line to fit them for bait
Ting with the world in future years.
The Phoenix offers a speciality in this
line not obtainable from any other
source, and what is more, absolutely
guarantees the amount you will receive
at stated time and further guarantees
to give you all the profits made besides
