Honolulu Is particularly happy In

In addition to this are 400 magazines

On March 23d DIR. Vile delivered

There were over a thousand people

MAKE FAIR TRIAL.

why should the Rapid Transit fran.
chisc be amended until fair trial has
been given the company when abiding
by the terms OF Its franchise?
The impression prevails that the
transit company cannot create a
schedule that will be in keeping with
the speed terms of the franchise and
meet public approval. When the com.
pany was forced to obey the law of
its franchise, the schedule was
thrown out all over town and whether
advisedly or not the idea Is abroad
that II is a physical impossibility for
the company to be any more regular
in It's service.
This impression Is not correct. The
Rapid Transit can arrange a schedule
that will comply with the terms of Its
franchise and at the same time secure
for the public proper connections at
the functions of the various lines. The
cOmrany's cars are now running un.
der what is termed a ten.minute head.
way, or five minutes between
switches. There Is no reason why
the company should not run its cars
under a twelve.minute Roadway, al.
lowing six minutes between switches,
or a fourteen minute Roadway, If that
time be required for the cars OF the
company to obey the law.
After n trial has been made OF a
service based on n slower Roadway,
then and not till then will the public
and the legislators be in a position t.
Judge whether they prefer the higher
rate of speed. The company will not
deny that up to the present II has not
given the public a fair trial Of ser.
vice in keeping with the terms of the
franchise. All the company has done
Is to throw out the connections by de.
creasing the speed and not making up
time. The company can arrange a
schedule that will not throw out the
connections.
Let this first be done. There Is
more than one side to this question.
II the Rapid Transit has an earnest
desire to be fair, II knows how to do
1t. The people are favorably dispos.
ed toward the company, and. It is hop.
ed. will continue so, but the people
will not be bully.ragged and misled in.
to doubtful program by even be.
nevolent monopoly.
Try the schedule based on a lower
rate OF speed and then hear what the
people say. Only omnipotent ones
can tell in advance what the response
will be. omnipotent humanity is not
rated high these days.

STANDARD OIL LEGISLATION,

Is II the intention of the Legislature
to do the bidding of the Standard Oil
crowd at the last minute and debauch
the public safety in order that cheap
fuel oils may be brought into the Ter.
ritory?
The action of the House at the
Thursday afternoon session would
seem to indicate that the work Of mis-.
representation has obtained temper.
airy hold upon the members. II these
members, however, display the com
mon sense which has characterized
them thus far throughout the session
they will not let this Standard Oil
program go through without much
more careful consideration than has
thus far been given.
No member of the Legislature can
afford to place Hawaii in the grip of
great trust. No member of the Legis.
lature can afford to go on record as
responsible for the Inauguration Of a
policy, the enactment of a law which
will increase the danger to life and
property on account of the use of dan
gerously explosive fuel oils. There Is
a deep responsibility in this matter
which the members cannot afford to
view with Indifference.
The present prevailing regulation
requiring high test fuel oils has been
found to be thoroughly safe and II has
not, nor will 1t work hardship for
the people or any business concerns.

ANNUAL REPORTS

San Francigco, April iS-The an.
nuol meeting Of Hawaiian Commercial
was held yesterday and reports cover.
ing the operations OF the calendar year
1904 were submitted. President Bald.
wins report showed the affairs Of the
corporation to be In excellent shape
and more satisfactory than for any pre-.
vious year in its history. In brief. he
said the year 1904 was n prosperous
enc, although In some respects not
quite a. good as 1908. The price OF SUI.
gar was better than in 1903. but the
crop fell below expectations owing to
the damage caused by the leaf hopper.
The crop OF 1903i9Oi from ii14 acres
was 2g,620 tons OF sugar. while the
yield in l90i.l905 from 1880 acres will
be $4,000 tons. The company now op.
crates Ave pumping stations for irri.
cation purposes and has an abundant
supply of water. The net returns for
the crop OF 1903.19Oi was s2,27i,4Sl.55
In response to inquiries as to the pres
ent status Of the company's affairs, the
president stated that the corporation
had s121,000 cash on hand and that
1900 tons Of sugar were afloat the
value Of which plus the cash on hand
aggregated sl,1O0,OOO. All told, the
crop, now partially gathered. will
amount to $4,000 tons. Including the
sugar heretofore accounted for and the
1l,600 tons now afoat there will be
about 10000 tons yet to come in. This
makes the total visible cash resources
S2,5OO,0O0. Reports as to the condi
ton of the growing crop are favorable

The ship Title Il. Starbuck will get
away some time this afternoon for
Delaware breakwater with her cargo
of $1,000 sacks of sugar. As was ex.

some of the sailors told U. s. Shipping
Commissioner Holt that they had re.
ceived cash on their allotment notea
from Captain Bray of the Sailors
Home. Four of the sailors are now
held to appear before the Grand Jury
Monday and Capt. Bray has also been
called upon to appear and produce
his books.
The Starbuck shipped four more
sailors and new cook this morning
and will get away without further
delay.

Animals and Fire.

Most animals are afraid of fire and
will fly form it in terror. To others
there is a fascination about a flame,
and they will walk into it, even though
tortured by the heat A horse in a
btirning stable goes mad with fear,
but dog is as cool in fire as at any
time. He keeps his nose down to the
floor, where the air is purest, and sets
himself calmly to finding his way out
Cats in fires howl piteously. They hide
their faces from the light and crouch
in corners. When the rescuer lifts
them they are as a rule quite docile
and subdued, never biting or scratch
ing. Birds seem to be hypnotized by
fire and keep perfectly still; even the
loquacious parrot in fire has nothing
to say. Cows, like dogs, do not show
alarm. They are easy to lead forth, and
often find their way out themselves.

The Ancient Watch.

There is uncertainty as TO when the
portable watch, as we understand 1t
today, came into use. II was proba-
bly, at the close Of the sixteenth cen
tury. Queen Elizabeth owned large
number of watches. Mary Queen OF
Scots was the possessor OF skull
shaned watch. In fact. the deaths
head" pattern was at that time much
in vogue. Endless we're the STYLES, for
there were watches shaped like
books. pears, butterflies and tulips.
The Nuremberg egg was special
shape. and was first made in 1900.
Those queer shapes Of watches pre-
vented their finding nlace in the
roctet. When was tho fob first used
in the dress of man? The German of
fob is "fuppe" and it is believed that
1t came from England through the
Puritans, whose dislike of display
may have induced them to conceal
their timekeepers from the public
gaze
This conjecture is strengthened by
the fact that short "fob" chain at
tached to a watch of Oliver Cromwell
in the British Museum is, in point
of date the first apendage of the kind
known. The watch is small oval
one in a silver case, and was made
about 1925 by John Midnall, of Fleet
street.-Exchange

New Cut Glass.

In cut glass the pattern known as
the chrysanthemum is still the popu-
lar choice.
The very newest, however, Is q
larger design known as Tornado.
This can best be imagined by think
ing Of pinwheel in the act OF ex-
ploding. Being very difficult to cut,
and snowy, 1t is extremely expensive.
The most recent salad bowl is
boat-shaped vessel, very long and
deep. Especially pretty ones come in

This charming glass, by the way, is
an improvement upon that of last

body design are toned down by tint
laid over them, which imparts de-

An Unabridged Dictionary.

Dorothy had driven half the house
hold wild by her attempts to discover
the meaning of a word. At last-her
mother, in despair, took down the big
unabridged dictionary and showed it
to her. The next day Dorothy was in
a strange house and got into an argu-
ment with the youths of the place
over the meaning of another word.
To convince her that they were right
they pulled out small school diction-
airy and showed her the definition.
But if they expected Dorothy to be
impressed they were bitterly mis-.
taken.
Huh" said she, wrinkling up her
nose and mouth in a highly insulting
and sarcastic manner. THAT dicks
honery don't count. That's only one
of those old bridge missionaries.
Wait till you come to my house and
I'll show you I'm right with our big
unabridged one."-Boston Globe.
