GAS WORK RUSHING.

A large force of men is pushing the
Gas Company's mains out towar1 the
Punahou district. Mains have been
laid within the past few days out
Beretania TO Alapai and up Alapai to
Kinau Here the main divides, one
branch running out Kinau, while an
other runs up Lunalilo. A branch CT
the I.unalilo street main runs up Kap-
ioIaui to Green and goes both WAYS on
that street One end of the Green
street pipe turns up Hackfeld and
branches out along Prospect The
other will serve ThurSton avenue. Al
present the mains on Prospect and
IunaliIo streets are being pushed as
rapidly as possible. An immense snip
ment of fixtures has been delayed
somewhere on the road and has inter
fered somewhat with the installation
of lights So many pople are taking
the gas that the company is taxed 10
the limit TO connect the houses as fast
as applications are made.

the japanese thoughtful and they are
welcoming the gospel story. In the
great Toyama hospital, where there
are 5000 convalescent Japanese soldiers,
an assembly of about 600 greeted Mr..
Thwing and other ministers at a gos-
pei service and 60 expressed a desire
to lead Christian lives.
The speaker dWelt much on the sac
rifices the people We're gladly making
to aid the carrying on of the war. The
fathers and mothers give their sons
and do not expect them to return, so
that when they do it is a greater joy
than it would be otherwise. Some of
the people are giving up one meal q
day, Patriotic Doctors Association
is treating patients free so that the
government physicians may devote all
their time to the wounded. Servants
are giving of their small wages.
Mr.. Thwing then told of his obser-
vations in China and emphasized the
fact that japanese influence was dom
inant in that empire. The Japanese
and the relations of the countries are
becoming more and more intimate.
America, the speaker declared, was
making a tremendous mistake in the
way she was enforcing the Chinese
exclusion law. American goods are be-
ing boycotted and millions of dollars

The Manchuria is due today although
she did not leave Yokohama until the
11th. two days late. 1t is probable
that she will arrive this afternoon. She
has over 1000 tons of freight for this
port, so it is not likely that she will
sail until tomorrow at least.

CLOSE Of
CAMPAIGN
Candidates Were Out
Carrying on Their
Fight Yesterday.

This, the last day of what has been
| fought in Hawaii, sees the tide of
Henry's strength still rising and the
fortunes of Brown on the ebb. The
campaign has been almost ferocious on
Oahu, and reports from the other is
lands indicate that it has been scarce
ly less savage there. Indeed, it would
not be surprising if there arises, on
Kauai especially, at least one and pos
sibly two criminal prosecutions as a
result of alleged violations of the cleo
ton laws in their preliminaries. What
will happen there on election day it
self, no man can say.
WILL KEEP ORDER.
But, so far as Oahu is concerned, it
is believed that good order will pre-
vail at the polls. 1T has been the
hottest campaign 1 ever saw said
Comedian-Candf Jim Quinn yes
terday, ''and the most mixed. 1t will
end tomorrow might, and the ending
will be spirited. But L believe that
election day itself will be very quiet.
The voters will all be sober. and will
be watching the returns. And I do not
anticipate any trouble at the polls.''
The election will be closely watched
by all parties. and of course every
precaution will be taken to prevent
trouble. But, if there is no drunkenness,
there is not apt to be trouble. Today
will be devoted to active campaigning,
and tonight the Republicans viii hold
what they intend shall be the largest
meeting of the campaign at Palace
Square. The speaking will be from
the band stand in the Capitol grounds,
so it was said yesterday. The Flu
sionists, led by Attorney Ashford, hav-
ing stormed and captured the band
stand on Saturday night, thereby vio-
lating the precedent that no political
meetings should be held within the
grounds, the Republicans will claim
that they have the same right-and
will exercise it,
CAMPAIGNING ON SUNDAY.
The Republican candidates We're out
campaigning yesterday. notwithstand-
ing the fact that it was Sunday.
series of meetings were held all up and
down Kalihi. from the Detention Camp
we'll up into the valley. They were.
however, only fairly we'll attended.
The Hawaiians for the most part pre-
ferred to remain at home on the Sab
bath. and the other political parties
took a rest. The Fusionists will close
their campaign tonight at Aala Park.
1t is probable that the Home Rule
scarecrow was resting yesterday, like.
wise, as nothing more was heard of
the story that Poepoe was going to
withdraw. In fact, that Home Rule
scarecrow needed a rest. 1t has been
one of the humors of the campaign.
like Candidate Quinn, but it has been
overworked. and it has not the same
eXuberant vitality as the candidate for
supervisor. Besides. the scarecrow
may be needed in another campaign
and it is not thought by those best
posted that Candidate Quinn will be.
