News Notes.

MAIL, august 4.-LaSt saturday ana
Sunday George H Perkins of Burling-
ton, Vermont, and Rob- c. Barrows Of
Haverford, Penn, visited the crater Of
Haleakala and were especially delight
ed with their "trip. Mr. Perkins is
professor of biology in the University
of Vermont and state geologist Of YER
mont. Mr.. Barrows is the nephew OF
DIR. Hitchcock, the well known
in describing the view from Haleakala,
stated that the cloud effect in conjunc-
ton with the crater and the sea was
unequaled anywhere in the world and
that no language could describe the
beauty of the scene presented. The
two gentlemen returned to Honolulu by
the Mauna Loa, having visited both
Kilauea and Haleakala.
TENNIS EXCITEMENT.
AS the 18th approaches the enthusi-
asm for tennis increases-in truth,
nothing is talked of on central Maui
excepting tennis. Eighteen couples-36
players-from the center Of the island
have entered the present cup tourna-
ment and there are certainly as many
more who for various reasons did not
enter, and then there are quite a num-
n MI re in T q hot "a
members of a formerly f1ourishing club.
There are perhaps altogether 100 men
and women players on the island and
these with proper management should
cause tennis to become the most popu-
lar Maui sport excepting only the ma
tional game of baseball
Apropos of the coming tournament
it is generally conceded that Messrs.
Krumbhaar and Basata will be win
who will make the contest close one.
Last Saturday, on the tennis court
at the Haiku residence of Hon. C. H.
Dickey, w. w. Westcott of Puunene
threw his knee out of joint. The doc
tor states that Mr.. Westcott will be
unable to play on August IL.
Thursday afternoon-seven of the
ladies of the Makawao Tennis Club by ,
invitation played on the fine new court
at Kahului. They left Paia by the
regular afternoon train and returned in
a special by the courtesy of H. B.
Weller.

WAS ALSO RETIRES.

Attorney j. NJ. Vivas, who at the last
county election ran for the office of
county attorney on the Fusion ticket
announces that he is out of politics for
good. From what the Maui News con-
siders reliable source it is stated that
the reason Mr.. Vivas retires is because
the democrats have fused and will work
under the Home Rule banner in the
future

TAR0 FLOUR

Political, Personal and
Social Items From
Maui.

"AILUkU, August with the sell
hing and razing of the buildings, plants
and fixtures of the taro factory of
the Hawaiian Fruit & Taro Co., dis
appears one of Mauis pioneer Industrial
landmarks. The taro factory was built
somewhere in the neighborhood of thir-
ty years ago, and was used for the
manufacture of taroena, a vegetable
food product which is being advertised
In the monthly magazines. Last year
quantity was made up and shipped
to New York, and at that time there
was some talk of continuing operating
the factory, but sufficient quantity of
taro which would warrant making up
into taro -four could not be had with
out paying prohibitory price. Thos.
w. Hebron of Honolulu bought the
machinery, and w. T. Robinson the
building. The ground will revert to
the government and will be used for
an armory for Company /.

POLO ITEMS.

Kauai will probably not send team
to the September polo tournament in
Honolulu. owing to the report that the
Rice brothers will be unable to play
Charles having injured his shoulder and
Arthur being ill.
The Maui club has recently built
large stables on its Paia grounds and
a dozen and more ponies are now in
the hands of a regular horse trainer,
who lives at the polo stables and is
putting the animals into fine condition
for the September contest. The play
ers for the Honolulu game have not
all been selected, though the quartet

A Long Felt Want.

What W" really need to make the
world bright ana the Inhabitants there
OF happy is a self working scheme.
There are plenty Of scllemcs-the air
is SO full of tAcm that they sometimes
crowd the microhoS-that appear to be
winners from the head waters Of the
creek when we sit in our easy chair
and watch them turn lunhsprings
through the haze of tobacco smoke.
That Is about all for them. though.
Next day they fall down because they
will not work themselves. as promised
in the prospectus the night before. and
thus the dead sure million dollars that
we were counting on slips through our
hands.
Let u able inventors drop perpetual
motion and fold the wings Of their fly
ing machines and invent Il self working
scheme If they would make a hit worth
while.

C!Gtn ':i::Lp Of Wood.

In Germany, S.,lin and Holland tex
tile goods are made Of wood, and it is
probable that this industry will soon
spread to France. The process con-
sists in mH,;ing the wood pulp pass di-
rcctly through Il metallic plate with IL
number OF slits. resulting in the forma-
ton Of tl,n ribbons which pass from
the slitted plate directly to a machine
which twists them, transforming them
into very regular threads of any desir-
ed size. The wood fiber threads thus
produced are classified by number like
the other threads in use. Mixed with
hemp threads they have been used to
make towels. These mixed fabrics
readily admit of washing, dycing and
printing. The wool pulp thread, which
grows weak when wet, rcgains it's re-
sistancc when dried.

Shoe LaceS For the Fat.

A Cincinnati woman has perfected
an Invention which should prove a
boon to the cOrpulent. This invention
enables men or women to lace their
shoes without STOPPING, and, although
it was not invented primarily for fat
men-thcrc are no fat Woinen-it will
be utilized as much by them as by the
aged and intirm. for whc-e comfort if
was brought into the world. The in
vention is simple. one lace string is
permanent in position. and pulling the
top Of it laces the shoe. Pulling the
bottom string loosens the shoe.

When You sit beside Il maiden.
Holding on the sly her hand.
You Il dream q are in heaven.
Stepped in rapture to the neck.

Music from the dreamy fiddle
Softly floats upon the air,
Bringing gladness as its message.
Softening the voice of care
Touching as with mystic fingers
Every strained and Earring fleck,
But it's all of for the evening

Odors Of the fragrant roses
Drift as from the isle Of spice,
Making you forget such vulgar

Sailing down the e Of romance.
While you pace the quarter deck
Your good vessel bumps the bottom
