HOLT AFTER NEW
PERSONAL TAX
BEING MORE VIGOR-
OUSLY LOOKED AFTER BY THE
TAX ASSESSOR.

The men who own great big diamonds
and who sport repeating, srlit-second
lchronometers are not say ns anything
about their possessions these days. The
diamonds are turned towards the wall
and the fine watches are replaced for
ordinary wear by the common or gar
den variety of Waterbury which may
be had for eighty-five cents. 1t IS Tax
Collector Holt who has wrought this
sudden change, for he has dug up the
section of the act of 1896 which bears
on the taxation of personal property
and finds that watches and JeVelry are
specially mentioned as fit objects for
taxation. 1t has of course been plainly
impossible for the collector to 'stimate
the exact value of the watches ana
jewelry of certain citizens, but there is
nothing like being on the right side add
the estimates that he put on The be-
longings of certain estimable citizens
has been bringing them hot foot to the
. tax office.
There is nothing new in the applicd-
tion of the tax to such articles of per-
sonal property" sair the collector. "A
good many people forget to make re-
turn of their iewelry and so 1 have to
remind them of it, Several people l. I'VE
called to see about 1t but it Is only
necessary to show them the act which
deals with the matter"

and the substitution of Damon at the
eleventh hour was felt to initiate
strongly against the success of the blue
and white while the comparative green
ess of the bulk of the Myrtle crew was
source of worry to the followers of
the scarlet.
The men were given an excellent start
and the Healanis forged at once to the
front with a stroke of thirty-three.
They gained good quarter length on
the Myrtles and kept the lead for the
first quarter mile. Here Crozier, who
had been rowing at thirty, called to his
men and uuickened noticeably The
crew responded and the scarlet b & to
pick up on the blue. Inch by inch the
Myrtles crept up until they were on
even terms and then slowly but very
surely they began to forge ahead. Da-
mons stroke had dropped to twenty
eight at the half mile and he tried to
raise 1T but with the only result that
the waist of the boat got a little out of
time. still the Myrtles drew away,
until they were a good three and a half
lengths to the good with only a quar-
ter mile to go. Opposite the Healani
quarters a mighty yell from the blue
camp followers put heart into stroke
Damon and his stalwarts. He called
for tl9ssDnFt and the men went to it
like wolves. They struck the water
well together and were putting every
pound of their beef into their work.
There was a yell of delight from the
Healani supporters on the bank as the
big gap between the boats began to
close perceptibly and to add to the ex
citement of the occasion the Myrtle
crews work began plainly to weaken.
The Healani stroke had gone up to
thirty two while the Myrtles were hit
ting it at tweny but the squirt had
come too late. The gun sounded just
after the clear water had been closed
with the Healanis gaining rapidly. The
Myrtles had won by a scant three
quarters of a length. Time 10:4S 1-5.
The crews cheered one another heart
lily and rowed back to their quarters
The Healanis had no excuses to offer
and all agreed that they had rowed a
magnificent race. The Myrtles were
loaded down with well deserved con-
gratulations Their work throughout
was clean and consistent Craftsmanship
They used every pound that they had
and they used it well.

Honolulu
Celebrates
The Fourth

The Natal Day dawned bright and
clear this morning. The prospects for
perfect day for the celebration were
early apparent. Att o'clock brisk show
ers began to fall generally throughout
the city. The rainfall lasted but a brief
time, however and served to cool the
air and lay the dust so that the day
was delightful. During the exercises
at the Capitol grounds a slight shower
fell, but the rain caused no inconve-
nience.
In the city the center of the celebra-
tion was of course at the Capitol
grounds where several orations were
given. But the largest crowd naturally
attended the annual rowing races at
Pearl Harbor in which the crews from
the Healani and Myrtle Boat Clubs
participated. These races occurred in
the morning, the usual special train
leaving the city at o'clock for the
Peninsula to convey the large crowds to
the scene of the race course. The
crowds returned during the forenoon
Immediately following the ending of
the last race.
The military and civil parade in the
city started a few minutes before 9
o'clock. 1t was not so large as has
been seen in former years, but it was
quite impressive, as there was large
turnout of military including the regu-
lars from Camp Mckinley, the marines
and the National Guard of Hawaii. The
fire department made a splendid turn
out in this parade. The exercises at the
Palace grounds occurred shortly after
10 o'clock. There was an excellent crowd
at the grounds. All available seats
provided by the committee We're occu-
pied and hundreds of people stood dur
ing the program.
At noon occurred the national salute
of forty-five guns, This was the sec
ond salute of the day, however, as sun
rise had been ushered in with the ma
tional salute also.
The day festivities will be continued
Immediately after the lunch hour. At
1880 o'clock interest will center at the
base ball park when there will be a
game. between the Kamehameha and
the Elks teams. The second game be-
tween the H. A. C.'s and Males will
follow Immediately after the close of
the opening game. 1t is expected that
the ball park will be crowded.
In the evening fireworks viii occur at
the Palace grounds. The fireworks will
begin at 1880 o'clock. Fireworks have
always been a popular form of enter
tainment in Hawaii and large crowds
will throng the grounds and streets
this evening.
Following the fireworks celebration,
there will be dancing Cne dance WI
be held at the Hawaiian Hotel while
another will be given at the Young Ho-
tel, The dancing will commence at
o'clock. A general invitation is ex-
tended to the public ~ the Fourth of
July committee to attend the events.
Dancing viii be continued until quite
late. The Rapid Transit Company will
operate cars as late az 1890 O'clock
These cars will make through connec-
tions with all parts of the city. The
music for the dancing is to be furnish

HAWAIIAN HOTEL TONIGHT.

The dancers at the Fourth of July ball
tonight at the Hawaiian Hotel will en-
joy the newly renovated lanais in their
beautiful new white coat of polished
paint.
The floors have not been allowed to be
used since their renovation fortnight
ago, and as a consequence they have
become with the addition Of wax well
rubbed into them, hard and well polish
ed on their surface, and will be a de-
light to the participants in the dance.
The main building N the past few
months has had a new white coat from
the top to the basement, and at night,
with it's myriads of colored electric
lights, presents a beautiful appearance.
In honor of the day new light decora-
tions have been added to the top story
of the building. and the grounds to-
night will be a dream with some new
effects in Japanese lanterns

ANOTHER SHARK
AT AQUARIUM
BIG FELLOW CAUGHT TODAY AND
NOW ON EXHIBITION-CHR
TENED INDEPENDENCE.

Another big shark has been caught off
Waikiki and is now in the shark pen
at the Aquarium. The fish was cap
tured this morning. 1t is now enjoy
ing life in the rather confined limits of
the pen.
A ten foot shark was captured and
taken to the pen some days ago but
the shark did not survive Imprisonment
and died within few DAYS. Great
disappointment was felt when the death
of the shark became known. The pre-
sent shark is slightly larger than It's
predecessor. The shark will no doubt
attract large crowds TO the Aquarium.
1t has been named lndep, n1ence in

lNYRTLES WON 5
HEALANLS 4

This was a great day for the scarlet
and white, for the Myrtle Rowing clubs
representatives won both the senior
and the Junior races at Pearl Harbor
and there is naught but gloom in the
camp of the Healanis. Both races were
well rowed throughout and the Hsalanis
though beaten have the satisfaction Of
knowing that they put up a gallant
fight in the face of conditions which
would have disheartened any but the
pluckiest of athletes.
The attendance at the course was
large, for in addition to the people who
make their summer home in the neigh
borhood of Pearl Harbor, a special
train of twelve cars took out many
hundreds of enthusiastic boosters"
both male and female, from the city.
The scene at the yacht club grounds
was pretty one The loch was gent
ly ripping in a pleasant breeze and the
different craft afoat We're all gay with
bunting of every hue. The special
arrived at ten and it's appearance was
the signal for the two crews to paddle
away down TO the starting point at the
head of the loch.
. The crews: in the senior race were.
Heaani Crew. B. Damon, stroke;
Dan Renear No. 8; Paul Jarrett, No.
.; Bert Heilbron, Bow; Harry Steiner,
Coxswain.
Myrtle Crew-George Crozier, stroke,
Ned Crabbe, No. 3; Ernest Kopke No.
.; Louis King, Bow; Luther Hough
Coxswain.
The officials of the day were in a
launch which followed the racing crews
throughout. They were:
Judges-A. A. Wilder, A. L. c. Atkin-
son, Lieut.. Hamilton.
Timekeepers-C. L. Crabbe. L. p.
Scott, Chris Willis.
Regatta Committee. G. Rhodes, w.
W. Harris w. SOper,
AS the seniors left their respective
quarters they were heartily cheered by
their fellow members and the crowd up
at the finishing point began to feverish-
ly to discuss the chance of their favo-
rite. The popular opinion was that
the Myrtles had the better and this
influenced the betting to the extent
that Healani money was looking for
short odds. There was however no
heavy betting to be seen, most of the
spectators putting up small wagers
merely for the fun of the thing. The

the Healanis, after weeks of training

ed by three quintette clubs. Dancing
will be held on the lanais of the Ha-
! waiian Hotel and in both ball rooms of
the Young Hotel.
Captain Samuel Johnson of the Ma
tional Guard was marshal of the day;
and had entire charge of the parade.
The parade was formed on Richards
street with the right resting on King
street. The procession moved along
King street to Nuuariu, thence up Nuu-
anu street to Vineyard, thence along
Vineyard to Emma, down Emma to Ho-
tel, along Hotel to Fort, down Fort to
King, and Waikiki on King to the Pal
ace grounds where large crowd re-
viewed the parade.
The column was headed by the drum
corps, then following Captain Johnson
and aides. Behind him came the Con-
cordia band. This organization showed
much Improvement in their playing and
furnished quite lively husic. The Ma
tional Guard followed Immediately af-
ter the band. The two companies Of
artillery from Camp Mckinley under
command of Captain j. c. Nichols
formed the next detachment in the line
of march. Following the artillery COM
panies came a detachment of marines.
The Fire Department headed by Fire
Chief Thurston, was the last division of
the column. The engines and depart
ment made a splendid showing. The
metal parts of the outfit had been bril-
l.antly polished and shone in the sun
| light. The engines and carts were
handsomely decorated in the national
colors. The department was highly
praised all along the line of march. But
for the department the parade this year
would have been entirely military in
character.
The parade dispersed Immediately at
ter passing the capital building and the
crowd in the grounds then had to wait
for nearly three-quarters of an hour
before the musical and literary exer-
cises began. All of the speakers, sing
ers and guests of honor occupied seats
on the band stand. At 1915 o'clock the
Concordian Band which had been sta
toned on the Eva side of the grounds
burst into the strains of America
which began the program. Colonel ].
W. Jones was chairman of the day. He
called the meeting to order and intro
duced Rev. Doremus Scudder who op-
ened the exercises with prayer.
Following the close of the prayer,
Frank e. Thompson was introduced.
Mr.. Thompson read the Declaration OF
! Independence. The young orator read
the thrilling statements of the famous
document in a most impressive style
and at the close was given hearty APP
! plause.

SEASON NEAR
Manager Leahy of the Tiyoli
Will Bring Noted Artists
From the City of Mexico

W. H. Leahy, the managing director
of the Tivoli Theater Company, has
just returned from a fortnight's trip
to the City of Mexico, after having
closed a)contract of great Importance
to the music lovers of San Francisco.
The success of Mr.. Leahys visit means
that the Tivoli will inaugurate a four
weeks season of grand opera on Mon
day evening. January 9, which will out
rival in extent and musical Importance
any of the former season Of grand
opera with which the Tivolis chief fame
is associated.
The company that will present these
operas is an organization of over one
hundred people imported by the Mexi-
can Government directly from Italy. 1t
has been giving a season of grand
opera in the City of Mexico under a
liberal subsidy from the Mexican treas
ury. 1t was the original intention of
the directors of this organization to go
straight to Havana after the conclu-
sion of their engagement in the MeXi-
can capital; but through Mr. Leahy's
efforts and his tempting financial in
ducements their tour was rearranged.
In, every department this company is
completely equipped and the full list
of principals is as follows: Soprani-
Signora Tettarazzini, Signora Berlindi,
Signora Flory and Signora Bettini;
Mezzo soprani and contralto-Signora
Claessens and Signora march,; tenors-
Signor Coli, Signor Baselli, Signor
Frosini and Signor de Marcho; barry
tones-Signor La Puma, SiGnor Rom
boil and Signor Rossi; bassi-Signor
Rossi, Signor Mugnoz and Signor Cervi;
conductors-Signor Pollacco, Signor
Golisciani and Signor Longo; stage di-
rector-Signor Saporeln.
There is a superb chorus composed of
fresh faced, young and talented Italian
signors and signoras and an orchestra
which, when increased by the addition
of some specially engaged players Of
the Tivoli orchestra, will number fifty.
The total force of artists, chorus, or
chestra and others engaged IN the pro-
duction will be 125.
The complete repertoire to be pre-
sented during the engagement will in
clude: Faust" by Gounod; "The
Pearl Fishers" by Bizet; "Migno1," by
Ambrose Thomas; 'Manon Lescaut."
by Jules Massenet; "Lakme,' by De-
libes; "Rigoletto," by Verdi; Son
nambula,'' by Bellini; La Traviata,"
by Verdi: ''Dinorah,' ''Pagliacci," by
Leoncavallo; "Cavalleria Rusticana,
by Pietro Mascagni; Lucia" by DON
izetti; 'Puritani," by Bellini; "The
Barber of Seville by Rossini; La
Tosca,'' by Puccini; "Adrienne Lecouy
rier," by Cilea; Fedora" by Gior-
dani; Andre Chenier," by Giordani.
and "Zaza," by Leoncavallo. Many of
the artists who will appear in these
operas have created in Italy the roles
in which they Will appear. They have
sung them at La Scala in Milan, the
San Carlo Theater in Naples, the Con-
stanzi Theater in Rome, the Paglion in
Florence and the Mosimo in Palermo.

ARTHUR'S POSTMASTER
IS UNDER ARREST
Accused by Inspector Dennis Coyne of
Having Failed to Produce Gov
efnment Money.

Henry d. Heckdendorf, blacksmith
and postmaster at Arthur. Mendocino
County, was arrested yesterday on
complaint of Postoffice Inspector Den
mis- Coyne on a charge OF not having
Government money on hand when
called upon to produce it. 1t appears
that Heckdendorf had been in the
habit of keeping his private money
and the Government money in the
same purse and using it in his busi-
ness. When called upon by the in
spector he was $25 or $50 short. but
went out and brought it in in a few
minutes. Inspector Coyne does not
believe that Heckdendorf had any
criminal intent, but he had violated
the letter of the law and his arrest
was obligatory upon the inspector.
Heckdendorf gave bonds and was re-
leased. He bears a very good repu-
tation.

Miss Wagner is a girl of strong per-

which traits were amply demonstrated
whsh she defined "a society girl in
such terse pungent terms on the wit

While attending most of the big
smart set functions, Miss Wagner
rather deprecated the giving up of
much time to social pursuits, prefer
