Referring to the use of the split log
for road grader the DEBORAH Repub-
lican says: 1T is undeniably the best
practical suggestion as to road making
ever offered the public. 1t has but one
defect; the cost is too cheap. If the
implement could be sold for $25 in
stead of costing 50 to $3.50, the graft
ers would be selling them all over the
state"

Fire" A soldier, who was passing,
ran down to the corner of Liliha and
School streets and turned in an alarm.
The department responded quickly but
the house was too far gone to be saved.
The shack in the rear was Quilted.
Mr.. Puaa said that the fire seemed
to originate at the back of the house
near the ground. AS the Chinaman
often cooks in a little shed at the back
it is thought that he left some sparks
and that these were the cause of the
blaze. 1t is not known whether there
was any insurance but it is reported
that the Oahu Lumber Co. has mort
gage on the building. Residents of the
neighborhood are loud in their requests
for a fire alarm box, the nearest being
at School street and the nearest mauka
at Judd street.

PHELPS MAY NOT
WINTER HERE


This is still considerable question as
to the movements of the ship Ersl5ine
N. Phelps which is at present tied up
at Navy Wharf No. ?. 1t is probable
that she will remain in port until the
opening of the sugar season yet there is
a possibility that she may sail for the
nitre coast to load nitrates for New
York or Philadelphia. In the latter case
it is probable that she will bring another
cargo of coal to this port for the gov
eminent and carry sugar away with her
Captain Graham seems satisfied with
this port and doubtless would cast his
vote in favor of remaining here until
the opening of the season.

very brief as there had been no sickness
aboard. The steamer had most pleas
ant and uneventful voyage across the
Pacific, good weather prevailing on the
entire trip. She brings 500 tons OF
freight to this port and full cargo for
| San Francisco. The cargo for Homo
lulu is mostly Oriental foodstuffs and
goods for the local Chinese and Japa-
nese stores.
The China's passenger list is very
small. She has none for Honolulu and
only 80 for San Francisco. Among the
passengers is Grant Wallace who has
been representing the San Francisco

Reinsurance Paid.

The reinsurance money for the sugar
steamer Conemaugh which has been
posted as lost by Lloyd's has been paid
to the Honolulu people who gambled on
the ships fate. The Conemaugh sailed
from this port last December and was
never heard of after leaving Coronel.
The local shipping men were of the
opinion that she would show up but con-
siderable money was sent to San Fran
cisco to be played against her arrival.
