The past few weeks has shown
that the most serious obstacle in
the way Of developing our mining
properties is the lack of good com
mon roads. The railway problem
lis in a good way to be solved at an
early day; the problem of the com
mon roads is in the hands of our
people, and if they are at all care
full Of their own interests they will
sol 70 it properly and without de-
lay. Good wagon roads would not
enure to the. advantage Of the
mines alone. Every pound of
farm produce grown by the farm
ers would be benefited as much
or more from good roads than the
mines.

Speaking Of calcite crystals

Speaking Of calcite crystals
what we term Gale spar, an inter
esting lecture was delivered before
the Mineralogy and Mining de-
partment of the Brooklyn insti-
tute the other evening on this sub
ject. We make a brief extract:
"The rich yellow Of some Of the
Joplin crystals is due to very
minute amount OF oxide OF iron.
The lilac color which is sometimes
seen in the center of Joplin crys-
tails, is due to manganese. The
grayish green Of Frenoh Creek cal
cites is due to the dense enclosures
of needles Of bissoline A gorge
Gus crimson cleavable calcite oc-

due to the red oxide OF copper.
Calcites from Bisbee are some

GOOD WEATHER STARTS UP MINING PLANTS

The drift being run from the
$50 foot level OF the Columbia
shaft will block out a large body
of zinc and lead ore Of a very
high grade character. The break
will have the 80 foot level, which
has been carried from the shaft
100 feet, as its upper line, giving
a body of ore in this one place
equal to 70xlOOx6, equaling A..
600 cubic feet, or between 4 and
5000 tons. II will be understood
that every hundred feet that these
two drifts are carried ahead will
duplicate this amount Of Stopping

in width from 4 to 7 feet. 1t is

cause strongly attracted to this

that in which most of our veins
are supposed to run.

section of line is finished the wireless
company will begin drawing the sub
sidy of $4,000 voted by the legisla-
ture. The money is to be paid at the
rate of 1000 per month. One of the
conditions was the completioa of the
Kauai connection, which was accom-
plished several weeks ago.
Manager Cross said yesterday that
he expected the telephone line from

YACHT CLUB
HAS CHOWDER
End of the Season
Reunion at the
Peninsula.
Feast of ChoWder and a
Flow of Converse
ton Enjoyed.
Representative Members Com
mingle and Talk Over
Club Affairs.

An enthusiastic and representative
band of members of the Hawaii Yacht
Club enjoyed the first chowder spread
in the new clubhouse at the PENN
sula on Saturday evening. Aside from
the much appreciated conjunction of
a first class chowder and cold beer,
the evening was made profitable and
enjoyable by speeches from F. M.
Hatch, Commodore Macfarlane, Fred.
NJ Whitney, T. w. Hebron and 9TH
ers, interspersed with songs and yarns
of the doings of those who go out on
the waters in yachts.
The chowder admirably fulfilled its
purpose, that of a reunion where by
gone pilikias could be adjusted in
friendly fashion, and possible obstacles
in the future obviated. Regatta Days
see the yachtsmen more or less in com
bative spirit and little time is pre-
sented to talk over the general well
fare of the club. Chowders and SINH
lar gatherings, on the other hand, find
the men conscious of their membership
of united interests rather than their
natural attitudes as shippers of COM
peting craft.
Port Captain Ward was responsible,
as master of the feast, for the general
comfort of his guests and the chowder
was chef d'oeuvre. Succulent oys-
ons and potatoes with the richest of
milk, composed the concomitants of
the pot au feu, which with the accom-
paniment of ships biscuit, coffee and
beer chilled to the precise temperature,
proved SO appetizing that the bottom
of the. cauldron was speedily found.
After the flowing bowl came the feast
of reason. F. NJ. Hatch, whose health
and business have combined to keep him
| out of active yachting of late, con-
graduated the club upon the erection
of it's comfortable quarters and the
| camaraderie of the club spirit.
"Such house and such chowder fol-
lowed by friendly talk in discussion of
future plans and reminiscent anec-
dotes" We're, the speaker said, what
he had always hoped for the days of
(! early yachting in Honolulu. Meetings
like these promoted good fellowship
and established the club ON a firm
basis
I Mr.. Hatch intends to take more ac-
: tive interest in yachting in the near
future and will in all probability send
the Healani down to Pearl Harbor and
refit her.
Commodore Macfarlane made an apt
speech for the good of the club, follow
ed by Fred Whitney and T. W. Hebron
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1903-09-07

who talked on matters of general in
terest.
Mr.. Lyle of the Mary L. and the
Malihini stated that he was building
boat for the express purpose of beat
ing Walkers speedy Defiance. This
led to a discussion of the establishment
of some system of measurement for
next season whereby the classes can
be made up Of boats competing on fair
ly even terms. Many suggestions were
made and offered which will be
brought up and acted upon at the next
general meeting. AS matters stand at
present. the club has a sin~ularly
large assortment of boats, all of about
the same overall line, but of far diff
ferent sailing qualities. Swamscott
Dories, sidewalk freaks, cabin boats,
all are included in two classes and
some system of handicapping will have
to be established to prevent the max
ing of numerous classes of two and
three craft each and the consequent
expense of many prizes. The Mary L.:
Gladys, Helene and La Paloma, meas
uring about seven, eight, fourteen and
twenty-four tons respectively, form a
fairly even class despite their difference
of tonnage. The Dewey and Hawaii
are SO much slower as to demand a
separate class. The Malihini, Wiki
wiki, Princess and Myrtle are almost
equal over ordinary courses, but the
Defiance outfoots them so much as to
make race uninteresting to the 9TH
ers without a liberal allowance
1t is the hope of many of the MEM
bers to start a practice here, much
used in Australasian and Japanese wa
a set of plans by first-class designer
calling for certain dimensions and spe-
cifications. This establishes a class.
and yachtsmen wishing to compete in
that class, build boats from these
plans. This brings out fleet of boats,
apparently alike in all important de-
tails but which alternate as winners
owing to superior seamanship or vary
ing good luck.
The building committee. Commodore
Macfarlane and Ex-Commodore, Hob
ron, was congratulated on it's successful
efforts. Some thirty in all sat down
to the chowder at long table, spread
on the downstairs lanai of the club
house. After the talks, George Turner
of the regatta committee started the
entertainment ball rolling with a song,
which was followed by yarns and
cigars. There was full moon and the
affair did not break up until we'll on
towards eleven O'Clock The night was
spent aboard yachts, in the big mos
quito proof dormitory of the club, and
at the residences on the yachtsmen
who own residences on the Peninsula.

UNCLE JEEMS'
RHEUMATIC CURE.

An entirely new and rather remark
able cure for rheumatism is one eX-
planned to a young lady and gentleman
who were in search of scuppernongs in
a vineyard on the outskirts of the city,
by Uncle Jeems, a typical "befo' de
war" darkey and the caretaker of the
place.
While among the fruit Uncle Jeems
made his presence known to the young
couple with the warning, Look out TO
snakes, Cap'n. Theys mighty frequent
aroun hyah." Thinking the old man
was merely trying to brighten them
away, the visitors asked him where the
snakes We're to be found.
"They's right in hyah ez much ez
eny whar," came the disconcerting re-
ply. EN- they's crate big whoppin'
rattlers, too. Yu needn't b'leeve me
eff you hain't a min to- but tells ye,
We had better be keerful.'
A few questions skillfully put drew
out the old darkey, and, forgetting the
object of their visit to the vineyard, the
young people were attentive listeners to
Uncle Jeems.
