In returning we got out OF the

Mr. Pannell informed MISS Chiles

THE FLY on THE
WALL

There was a halt at the foot OF the
mountain and all got out to walk up
the switch-track. We had not gone
far before We understood the reas-
on. The roadway was almost per-
pendicular and a horse became the
veritable fly on the wall 10 was
all he could DO TO pull himself and
carriage up. and TO carry a load was
out OF the question. We turned a
round the road and there on the
side Of the mountain were three CO.

by Headwaiter Smith and one OF the
others by Mr.. 5. ID. Pannell. Away
above all OF these was the residence

A MOUNTAIN RESORT.

We ended the journey at Pine

Mr.. J. Clarence Noel. He has pur-
chased enough land to make an ideal
pleasure resort. He is laying of a
tennis court and with the ham

Dinner was served here. After

DIR. SHEPPARD AND HIS MAD
AME.
Returning to the cottage, we were
surprised to see a tall stately gentle
man leading a horse up the hill. Be
hind the animal was a carriage and
in this was a lady. He was very
gentle in his manner and method.
His light pants or breeches appear

KONA
FOR Al LONG TIME
THE WEATHER BUREAU GOT IT'S FIRST INDICATION OF
SATURDAY WHEN FA1.L-wENT TO
THE LOWEST POINT REACHED SINCE UNITED
CHARGE WEATHER

Honolulu was treated to the first real
Kona storm for many moons yesterday
and today, and from what the weather
man says, there is more to come.
Sunday dawned brightly enough but
by the time that the good people were
getting ready for church black clouds
had hidden the mountain tops and the
wind from the south and southeast had
in it the warning that heavy weather
was coming. Minor showers of a local
nature fell before noon and towards
two o'clock the rain began to descend
in earnest. The downfall was as pecu-
liar as most rainfalls are in Honolulu
for while it would be raining heavily
in one place, another block away the
dust would be blowing in the road.
The wind rose rapidly as the after
noon wore on and at 2:10 it was blow
ing at the rate of 2S miles an hour, as
recorded by the weather bureaus ane-
mometer. This rate was pretty stead
lily maintaine d for an hour or so and
then it dropped off gradually until at
$50 25 miles an hour was recorded. All
through the afternoon in the city the
heavy showers continued to succeed
one another until the streets were ver-
liable rivers in places. out at Waikiki
and especially near Diamond Head the
storm struck earlier in the day and
save for few showers of a light ma
ture the afternoon was fairly fine but
further out at Waialae bay the heavy
weather did not start in until o'clock.
Yesterday evening saw rain wind

Wake up
THE DELEGATES TO WASHINGTON
WILL HOLD A MEETING TOMOR-
ROW TO DISCUSS MATTERS.

After several days of Information the
Washington delegation woke up today
and commenced to do something. Noti-
fication was sent to each of the dele
gates, as well as to Case of Maui and
Loebenstein of Hawaii, that a meeting
would be held in Galt's office at two
o'clock tomorrow afternoon for a gem
eral discussion of preliminaries. Until
then matters will remain quiescent.
Il think that a big mistake has al
ready been made in not employing a
permanent secretary" said one of the
delegates this morning. 1--WE will need
one. l don't care whether he be
press man or not, the need of a man to
look after the details of the work is ap-
parent. For instance, both Case and
Loebenstein were to have been notified
of what has been done so far but If
they We're written, neither received the
letter. There will be a deal of clerical
work which must be attended to thor
oughly on the trip"
Loebenstein went off on his own ac-
count this morning and engaged his
passage by the S. S. Mongolia.

said as he produced his ticket at noon
today. Il went to get my ticket and

CONSEQUENCES FILED TODAY

An attack on the Revised Laws of
Hawaii-the whole volume,-was be-
gun this afternoon in the circuit court,
when former Judge Gear filed a petit
tion for a writ Of habeaus corpus in
behalf of the Tom Pong, based i'm part
on the claim that the book known as
the Revised Laws was not legally pass
ed. The volume is the report OF
code commission. 1t was passed in
a lump by an act declaring it to be the
laws of Hawaii, and Gears petition
claims in part that the supposed laws
therein contained were not read three
times in both houses, as required by the
Organic Act.

ARMY COAL
CAPTAIN HUMPHREY LOCAL DE-
POT QUARTERMASTER OFFERS
LARGE QUANTITY.

Captain Humphrey the local depot
Iquartermaster has decided to sell
through Jas. F. Morgan 1000 tons of
Nagasaki coal which is part of the
army supply now on hand. The rea-
son for selling this cargo is the fact
that there are pockets in the pile where
there has been fire or else very highly
heated coal. Captain Lyman of the
transport Thomas refused last week
to accept some of this coal and Cap
tain Humphreys will dispose of the
stuff. He will not take the respOnsf-
bility of putting the coal when heated,
into the bunkers of a steamer where
spontaneous combustion is likely to
ensue.

morning the wind kept up in the neigh
bCrhood of 25 miles an hour, but at $3.50
today the 30 mile record was again
reached.
With the experience Of the storm it,
self, most people will be surprised to
learn that the rain gauge at the U. s..
Observatory shows only 47-1OOths of an
inch for the twenty-eight hours ending
at noon today. From this 1t is to be
presumed that the roof of the Young
building did not catch such wetting
as did other parts of the town.
1--WE got the first indication of the
comingstorm at noon on Saturday,"
said Director Ashley Of the Weather
Bureau this morning. THE barometer
then began to fall rapidly and 1t has
been falling ever since until now it is
as low as it has ever been since we be-
gan operating here. The first decided
wind indication occurred at 4:30 a. IN.
yesterday when the wind shifted to the
southeast. The storm was on us before
the dew point and humidity gave any
indications. The humidity yesterday
was very high but it was probably not
noticed on account of the high wind.
The outlook seems to be that there is
still heavy weather ahead of us, at least
there are no indications Of a change up
to the present time"
There was little damage to be record
ed beyond the breaking of a few trees
and the partial flooding of one or two
cellars.
Yachtsmen whose craft We're down at
Pearl Harbor expressed some anxiety
as to how their property Jared as the
harbor there is more exposed to the
south gale than is Honolulu

the Peninsula this afternoon to look

Some red-hot cablegrams have re-

pOintment of Judge Robinson.
one of them was from Bishop Libert,
and it is said that HIS Grace spent
twenty-eight dollars of the country in
telling President Roosevelt what he
thought.
The Young Mems Institute sent an
other cablegram which was of the kind
popularity supposed to make the cable
hot. And finally the Red Men blew in
some of their wampum to let the Great
Father at Washington know what
good man Judge Robinson is.
The position which has been taken by
Governor Carter in regard to the NOM
ination of Judge Robinson to succeed
himself has stirred up veritable hor-
nets nest in Roman Catholic circles in
Honolulu, and not in Roman Catholic
circles alone, but also in the ranks of
certain fraternal bodies of which the
Judge is an honored member
Judge Robinson, as is known, is an
adherent of the Catholic church, a con-
sistent member, standing high in the
esteem of the clergy and laity, it has
never been limited that the matter of
his religious belief ever served him
hairs breadth from his duty as
judge. When however, the present sit
uation arose, many among his fellow
adherents began to show their feeling
In the matter. Consequently at the
last meeting of the Young Mems In
stitute, that great organization which
numbers hundreds of thousands of
good Catholics and loyal citizens in it's
ranks, the question of Judge Robinson's
re-appointment was taken up. Natu-
rally enough the meeting was not an
open one, but the feeling on the sub
ject is so strong that the news has
leaked out that a cablegram was care
fully drawn up and sent on to the Pres
ident at Washington and the head of
the Y. NJ. I. was also notified.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1906-01-15

AS explained by a member of the Y
M. l., that organization never inter-
feres with political matters or appoint
ments, but in the recent trouble over
the judgeship the personal character of
a member who has enjoyed the conf
dence and esteem of his fellow mem
bers has been as they believe, wantom-
ly and unjustly assailed so that the
members feel that they would be do
ing less than their duty did they not
stand by him
Added to this, Bishop Libert has talk
en- a personal stand in the matter.
Knowing President Roosevelt, as he
does, he has dispatched a long cable to
Washington giving direct denial to the
suggestion that Judge Robinson ever
participated in or permitted any orgie
