U is far cry from the dark, -dingy
of a few years ago to the new,
bright, well-appointed kitchen Of the
modern dwelling. Probably upon no
other room in the house has the. same
careful thought been brought to bear,
perhaps because no other offered the
same problems for solution. The house
keeper Of today must answer the same
questions which face the manufacturer;
namely. the lessening Of the cost of
ton,
Three things must be borne in mind
in connection with the modern kitchen,
if it is to reach a point approximating
the ideal: It must be light; it must
be clean; it must be we'll ventilated,
and unless these conditions are OBJ
served, the whole house suffers.
Basement kitchens, dark, poorly ven
tilated, half underground, are certainly
not productive Of clean, wholesome
food. Experts in England and France
have shown by investigation and ex-
pertinent that certain types Of disease
and undue mortality among cooks are
due to bad light and lack of air in
the kitchens in which they work. ::

A qDISHWASHER FOR THE HOME
Practical Invention Which Will Fill a
q .'@4t Long-Felt> Want.

Even before the servant-gir pues-
ton became SO acute, the drudgery Of
washing was ever a dreaded or
deal in the household. The scarcity of
competent domestic help has of late
brought this old bugbear into greater
prominence. + Devices of many kinds
have contributed to tighten the daily
tasks Of the ,housekeeper, but nothing
has heretofore been invented which
could in any way relieve dishwashing
of its disagreeable features. Dish
washing by hand is not only unpleas-
ant, but positively unsanitary. No less
an authority than Mrs. Rohrer has pro-
nounoed it so. It is impossible to get
dishes as clean as they should be with
out the use Of boiling water, which is
out of the question in hand work.
This most vexing Of all domestic
problems has at last been solved. A
dish washing machine has been invent
ed which will really do the work quick.
or and better than it can be done by
hand. Machines for washing dishes
have been in use for some time it is
true, in the larger hotels, but their
construction was such that they were
not fitted for use in small family.
But the machine recently perfected is
so simple and effective as to be par
ticularly adapted to the requirements
Of the individual home. It is con-
structed on principle which makes it
possible to wash dishes clean in one
minute by the watch.
| It will be Of interest to housekeep-
ers to know that this latest invention
originated in the brain of a woman. It
was developed thru many months of
study and experiment by friend ex.
perienced in overcoming mechanical
difficulties, and at last received the
approval of the mechanical expert of
a large manufacturing concern. who
has since subscribed for some of the
stock Of the new company. Women
who have tried the model in their own
homes pronounce it an unqualified sue
cess, and many individual orders have
already been booked. A number OF
buyers for wholesale and department
stores who have examined the machine
declare their intention to buy in guam
titles as soon as the device is placed
on the market The company now be
ling organized to manufacture this ma

of 100 machines day, and it is hoped

For Folks Afraid Of Fire.

A house which is described as stthe
most remarkable dwelling in central
New York, and probably the most in

by John n. Osborn of Auburn, says the
New York Sun.
It appears that Mr.. Osborn has been
burned out twice.
The upper walls consist Of four inches
of brick on the exterior, then eight
inches Of concrete building blocks, then
a four-inch air space--heated in winter

Moore
Pleads
Guilty
TO CONVICT OF CON
SPIRACY LEFT HIM OPEN TO
MORE SERIOUS CHARGE.

William Moore, in whose case the
jury disagreed last week in the federal
court, this morning pleaded guilty of
conspiracy to pass counterfeit note.
The plea was a result of peculiar err
ror of juryman. The lone juror who
declined to vote to convict Moore made
the argument that he would have been
willing To convict of passing a note but
not of conspiracy to pass. Passing is
an offense with five years as the mini
mum punishment and Moore is in
dicted for that ofrense, whereas con-
spiracy to pass may entail only a very
small penalty Moore was to have
been tried next for the passing and
chose to plead guilty rather than take
the risk.
j. Duffy, who was acquitted of con-
spiracy by the courts direction, is to
he tried for passing now. The case
was set for tomorrow

Public
Policy
Aids Sailors
JUDGE DOLE DECIDES THAT
LIBELS AGAINST VESSELS MAY
PROCEED.

The suits of sailors against the ship
Hawaiian Isles and bark Willscott were
allowed to proceed by ruling of United
States Judge Dole this morning. In
the case of the Hawaiian Isles the
judge ruled that a suit in forma pau
peris was allowable, and in the other
case he sustained the plea that the doc
trine of 'Juratory caution" applied.
George A. Davis, attorney for the libel
lants, was required to show that he
had no interest in the expected judge
ments or if he had to file a Ielinqush-
ment of such interest
''It is against public policy that sail
ors should not be allowed to sue for
their wages without paying costs" said
the judge in making his ruling in the
Wilscott case. The judge further said
that as a matter of public policy he
would resolve legal doubts n favor
of the poor sailors rather than the own
ers.
Many sailors We're in court and after
adjournment the taking of dispositions
in the Hawaiian Isles case continued
before Commissioner Malngs.

SOLDIERS
Three
THE CHAMPION HARD LUCK
CAMP MCKINLEY.

Camp Mckinley has the worst hard
luck story of the year. Its heroes are
three soldiers who went to see san
Francisco and who got back here on the
transport Sherman,
The Sherman left here shortly after
the big earthquake and the soldiers
three, one of them a sergeant, thought
it would be worth lot to see the ruins
of the great city. SO they slowed away
on the transport They didn't want to
be rated as deserters and therefore re-
ported to the quartermaster as soon as
the steamer was well beyond Koko
Head Thus they expected to see San
Francisco at the cost merely of punish
ment for being absent from roll calls
without leave. But they didn't.
The soldiers three were placed in the
! brig of the transport and there they
stayed, during the thirty days of her
/ trip to the coast and back. They saw
/ San Francisco,-through port-hole,
! from the harbor That was all they
saw at the Golden Gate. Then the
| transport went to Seattle and the SOL
ders three saw Seattle in the same
way. The next thing that happened
was that the transport got afire in the
recent big Seattle fire and the three
Adventures We're locked in the brig
They had the scare of their lives, but
were not hurt,-and they never left the
brig.
When the vessel got back here the
three were still in the prison. They left
it only to go to Camp Mckinley as
prisoners and prisoners they still are
1t is not regarded as likely that soldiers
at the camp win choose slowing away
as a means of seeing sights hereafter

AVIATION AFFAIRS

PLANTERS ASSOCIATION MET
MATTERS OF INTEREST.

A meeting of the plantation managers
together with the Planters Association
met this morning in their rooms in the
Judd building. Many matters of in
terest to plantation men were discussed
labor and fertilizers being among the
most prominent things mentioned. The
meeting was called at 8 o'clock and
lasted some two hours.
This afternoon at 2:3O the plantation
men meet at the Experiment Station
to listen to an illustrated lecture on
cane diseases by DR.. Cobb who has
made this subject his special study for
the past several months. DIR. Cobb gave
his lecture once before and it was con-
sidered so instructive in nature that
the planters decided to have the differ
ent managers come TO Honolulu and
listen to the lecture. Nearly every
manager in the territory is at present

as to the scope of the law which pre-

The decision of the Supeme Court Of

the following ruling as to imports:
Goods imported do not lose their
character as imports and become incor-
porated into the masA of property of

broken up by him from their original
cases. Whilst retaining their charac-
