WAS THE FIRE
INCENDIARY2
HIGH SHERIFF IS INVESTIGATING
THE BURNING OF BIRBE's KAA-
AVA SCHOOL.

The matter Of the rebuilding Of
"Birbe's" school at Kaaawa has not
yet been decided upon by the admins
tration. The Public Works Depart
ment will take no action in the mat
ter until requested to do 50 by the Edu-
cation Department and the latter de-
partment Will not move until the At
torney Generals office has reported.
There is strong reason to fear that
the fire was of incendiary origin. There
was native candidate for the school
mastership and as all Of the scholars
would have been native, there was con-
siderable feeling over the appointment
Of haole to the position. The new
school, 1t will be remembered, was
burned only a day before Birbe was to
have taken charge.

"trip to the orient the big s. s. Texan
of the AmorIoau-Havaiau lime made
her appearance this morning Off the
hlrbor from Manila. 10 days out She
came to load sugar FOR Delaware Break
water. She left Seattle originally
for the Orient ON October a. The
vessel carried "a special cargo of II 600
tons of general stuff principally FOR
Japanese and Chinese consignees Much
of the stuff was contraband of war and
had the famous Russian VladivostolI
fleet been I'm commission the Texan
would have stood a good prospect Of
being siezed.
She was certainly worth watching
for. She carried 10000 sacks of -four
100000 feet of lumber, ,94 steel plates
and 500 tons Of general cargo. The
plates were evidently intended for use
in the japanese navy yards while most
of the flour was also for japanese con-
signees. The lumber went to Manila.
The outward trip was rough The trip
from Manila passed without incident.

vessel at this place and return to the

The $. S. Nebrlskar arrived this
morning from San Francisco after a
very disagreeable passage. She car
ried 5000 tons Of cargo weight and mea-
surement which is about the biggest
load that has ever come out Of San
Francisco on the local steamers of the
American-Hawaiian line. She had live
stock consisting of pigs, mules and
COWS and calves. The seas were for
several days very heavy and were con-

loaded very deep. The deck pens We're

retired detective has noted is that
criminals are better educated now
than they were in the early 70's. He
thinks that crimes which demand in
the perpetrator a fair education and
considerable knowledge of the way Of

more common than they were.
