new OIL SHIP
FOR THIS RUN

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 2S.-The
British ship Cypromene, which was re-
Gently purchased by Captain John
Barneson, is said to have passed into
the hands of the Matson Navigation
Company, and that it is the intention
OF this concern to operate her in the
same capacity as the ship Marion Chill
colt, which carries oil between this
coast and the Hawaiian islands. In
order TO traffic between the two Amer
lean ports the ship must have an Amer
lean registry, and rumor has ii that
the application is now being consider
ed by the officials mt Washington. The
Cypromene is now at Bodies shipyard,
where she is being measured for the
oil tanks. 1t is stated that the YES
sells rig will be changed and that the
company is, at present, undecided as
to whether she will be schooner or bark
rugged,

WIRELESS PLANT
AT FARALLONES

For the purpose of installing a wire
less telegraph plant at the Farallones,
the United States Navy tug Unadilla
will make trip today rom Mare Is
land to the islands. The government
has at present stations at Point Reyes,
Mare Island and Goat Island. and each
one has been found to work satisfac-
torily. The government has been en-
couraged to such an extent that it will
erect stations along the coast as fast
as the work can be done.
The Farallones lay about twenty
eight miles outside of the Heads, and
are so situated that permanent sta
ton at this place will be of considera-
BILE advantage to shipping men.-EXam-

PHELPS MAY NOT
WINTER HERE

This is eth considerable question as
20 the movements Of the ship Erskine
VI Phelps which is at present tied UP
at Navy Wharf No. p It Is probable
that she will remain in por, until the
opening Of the sugar season yet there Is
possibility that she may sail for the
nitro 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.

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.
The money for the lucky guessers ar
rived on the Sonoma.

FIRE
LAST NIGHT

An alarm of fire sent in from Box II
at 1858 last night called the depart
ment to the corner of Liliha and Kua-
KIM streets, where a small store build
ing owned by one Mau En- Fook. re-
siding at his store at Alapai and Luna
lilo streets, was discovered on fire. The
store. which was unoccupied, was on
ground leased from a Hawaiian by the
name of Puaa who resides in the house
just mauka. A Chinese lives I'm a lit
tie house in the rear of the burned
building and he was the first one to see
the fire, being awakened from sound
sleep by the flames.
Mrs. A. V. Inman, whose husband is
an engineer on one of the island
steamers, lives in the house just makai
of the store. She had just retired and
was half asleep when she heard a
cracking and looked out of her win
dow in time to see the whole store
in flames. She tried to telephone an
alarm but failing she ran out crying
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 We're 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.

KAUAI WANTS
MORE POWDER

The arrival of the bark Mohican,
which is now out twenty days from
San Francisco, is anxiously awaited by
Kauai people, for there is a famine
in the land. The people have plenty to
eat, however, for the famine is one
of blasting powder. The big Maui ditch
which was recently completed is the
cause of the shortage, for nearly all
the powder in Honolulu was used in
the blasting operations there. AS soon
as the Mohican arrives here the steam
err Waialeale VIII make a special trip
to Kauai ports to take the powder over.
Several big blasting jobs are being held

'"The young ones are weak and can.
not fight you,' said Claus.
True agreed Jack though<fully

night-if I can resist the temptation"
he promised. "Good night, CLAUSE
"Good night
The young man went in and closed
the door, and Jack Frost ran on to the
nearest village.
| Claus threw log on the fire, which
burned up brightly. Beside the hearth
sat Blinkie, big cat given him by
Peter the KNOCK. Her fur was soft
and glossy, and she purred never end
ing songs Of contentment.
Il shall not see the children again
soon,'' said Claus to the cat, who kind
~ paused in her song to listen. 'The
winter is upon us, the snow will be
deep for many days, and shall be I'M
able to play with my little friends"
| The cat raised paw and stroked her
nose thoughtfully, but made no reply.
So long as the fire burned and Claus
sat in his easy chair by the hearth she
did not mind the weather.
So passed many days and many long
evenings. The cupboard was always
full, but Claus became weary with hav-
ing nothing to do more than to feed
the fire from the big wood pile the
KNOCKS had brought him.
One evening he picked up a stick of
wood and began to cut it with his
sharp knife. He had no thought at
first except to occupy his time, and he
whistled and sang to the cat as he
carved away portions of the stick.
Puss sat up on her. launches and
watched him, listening at the same
time to her masters merry whistle,
which she loved to hear even more
than her own purring songs.
Claus glanced at puss and then at
the stick he was whiting, until pres
emily the wood began to have a shape,
and the shape was like the head of
cat, with two ears sticking upward.
Claus stopped whistling to laugh,
|
at the wooden image in some surprise.
Then he carved out the eyes and the
nose and rounded the lower part of the
head so that it rested upon neck.
Puss hardly knew what to make of
it now, and sat up stiff1y, as if watch
ing with some suspicion what would
come next. .'.',

idea. He piled his knife carefully and
with skill, forming slowly the body of
| the cat which he made to sit upon it's
launches as the real cat did, with her
tail wound around her two front legs.
The work cost him much time, but
the evening was long and he had moth
ing better to do. Finally he gave
loud and delighted laugh at the result
of his labors and placed the wooden
cat, now completed, upon the hearth
opposite the real one.
PusS thereupOn glared at her image,
raised her hair in anger and uttered q
defiant new. The wooden cat paid no
attention, and Claus, much amused,
| laughed again.
Then Blinkie advanced toward the
wooden image to eye it closely and
smell of it intelligently. Eyes and
nose told her the creature was wood,
in spite of it's natural appearance;
so puss resumed her seat and her
purring, but as she neatly washed her
face with her padded paw she cast
more than one admiring glance at her
clever master. Perhaps she felt the

by the immortals, else they would not
have favored him SO greatly.
SO he began at once to make ac-
through the Valley to the plain beyond,
and crossed the plain in many direc-
tons to reach the abodes of men.
These stood singly or in groups Of
dwellings called villages, and in nearly
all the houses, whether big or little,
Claus found children
The youngsters soon came to know
his merry, laughing face and the kind
glance of his bright eyes, and the par
ents, while they regarded the young
man with some scorn for loving chill
dren more than their elders, were con-
tent that the girls and boys had found
playfellow who seemed willing to
amuse them.
So the children romped and played
games with Claus, and the boys rode
upon his shoulders, and the girls
nestled in his strong arms, and the
babies chung fondly to his knees.
Wherever the young man CHANGED tG
be the sound of childish laughter fol-
lowed him, and to understand this bet
ter you must know that children were
much neglected in those days and re-
ceived little attention from their par
ents, so that it became to them a mar
vel that so goodly man as Claus de-
voted his time to making them happy
And those who knew him were, you
may be sure, very happy indeed. The
sad faces Of the poor and abused grew
bright for once; the cripple smiled de-
spite his misfortune; the ailing ones
hushed their means and the grieved
ones their cries when their merry
friend came nigh to comfort them.
Only at the beautiful palace Of the
Lord of Lerd and at the frowning
castle Of the Baron Braun was Claus
refused admittance. There were chill
dren at both places, but the servants
at the palace shut the door in the
young strangers face, and the fierce
Baron threatened to hang him from an
iron hook on the castle walls. Where
the poorer dwellings where he was well
come.
After time the winter drew near
One day snowfakes filled all the air
in the Laughing Valley and clothed in
pure white raiment the roof of Claus
dwelling.
At night Jack Frost raped at the
door.
"Come inv' cried Claus.
"'Come out" answered Jack, "for you
have a fire inside
So Claus came out. He had known
Jack Frost in the Forest and liked the
rogue, even while he mistrusted him.
There will be rare sport for me to-
night, Claus" shouted the sprite.

Chapter Centb

HUSH lay on the Laughing Val
ley now. Snow covered it like
white spread, and pillows of
downy fakes drifted before the dwell
Ing where CLAUS sat feeding the blaze
Of the fire. The brook gurgled on be-
meath heavy sheet of ice, and all liv-
ing plants and insects nestled close to
Mother Earth to keep warm. The face
Of the moon was hid by dark clouds,
and the wind, delighting in the wintry
sport, pushed and whirled the snow
fakes in SO many directions that they
| could get no chance to fall to the
| ground.
Claus heard the wind whistling and
shrieking in it's play and thanked the
good KNOCKS again for his comfortable
shelter. Blinkie washed her face lazily
and stared at the Goals with look of
perfect content. The toy cat sat op-
posite the real one and gazed straight
ahead, as toy cats should.
Suddenly Claus heard a noise that
sounded different from the voice of
the wind. 1t was more like vail Of
suffering and despair. a.
He stood up and listened, but the
wind, growing boisterous. shook the
door and ratified the windows to dis
tract his attention. He waited until
the wind was tired, and then, still
listening, he heard once more the shrill
cry Of distress.
Quickly he drew Oh his coat, pulled
his cap over his eyes and opened the
door. The wind dashed in and scat
tered the embers over the hearth, at
the same time blowing Blinkie's fur so
furiously that she crept under the table
to escape. Then the door was closed,
and Claus was outside, peering anx-
iously into the darkness
| The wind laughed and scolded and
tried to push him over, but he stood
firm. The helpless flakes stumbled
against his eyes and dimmed his sight,
but he rubbed them away and looked
again. Snow was everywhere, white
and glittering. 1t covered the earth
and filled the air.
The cry was not repeated.
Claus turned to go back into the
house, but the wind caught him I'M
awares, and he stumbled and fell
across snowdrift. His hand plunged
into the drift and touched something
that was not snow. This he seized
and, pulling it gently toward him,
found it to be child: The next mo-
ment he had lifted it in his arms and
carried it into the house.
The wind followed him through the
door, but Claus shut it out quickly.
He laid the rescued child on the hearth,
and, brushing away the snow, he dis
covered it to be Weekum, "a little boy
who lived in a house beyond the Val
ley.
Claus wrapped q warm blanket
ABOUND the little one and rubbed the
frost from his limbs. Before long the
child opened his eyes and. seeing where
he was, smiled happily. Then Claus
warmed milk and fed it to the boy
slowly, while the cat looked on with
sober curiosity. Finally the little one
curled up in his friends arms and
sighed and fell asleep, and Claus, filled

with his handiwork, without knowing
exactly why. Indeed, he had cause to
