SEEING HONOLULU
A BIG SUCCESS
INITIAL TRIP OF THE SIGHT SEE
ING CAR THIS MORNING GAVE
TOURISTS A GREAT TREAT.

The first Seeing HOalolUrlm" trip
managed by r. H. Trent and the Rapid
Transit Co. was a distinct success to-
day. The threatening weather kept
many visitors from making the trip but
the eighteen or so who rode on the car
must certainly have enjoyed their trip.
1t is not every party that can have
so clever a cicerOne as, this mornings
party had for l.. A. Thurston was the
man who gave his time to the des-
cribing of the different sights and
scenes along the route. Familiar as
he is with Hawaiian history and with
the local traditions and tales here in
Honolulu he made the whole trip a
sort of chatty speech Illustrating his
points with the very scenes through
which the party passed.
Leaving Fort and King streets short
ly after nine O'clock, the ear ran down
to the foot of of Fort stfget ,'and Mr..
Thurston there pointed Sut the site
of the old fort from which the street
takes its name. The car next went I'M
Nuuanu and on the way different points
of interest were described. Queen
Emma s residence, the Along home, the
Japanese consulate and other pro-
minent places were pointed out and a
graphic description was given of the
ever celebrated fight when Kameha-
meha the Great took the Oahuans in
hand. The spot where the fight began
was pointed out to the interested tour
lists.
Returning from the valley the special
car went out by BeretRpIS street to
Manoa. On the way the home OF
Queen Liliuokalani was pointed out
When Punchbowl doomed large on the
port side of the car the passengers were
assured that though the mountain was
an extinct volcano there was no dan
ger of it's breaking out again
That is, not Immediately" explained
Mr. Thurston Our local scientist DR..
Serene Bishop figures it out that it is
seventeen million years since Punch
bowl was active so | don't think we
need worry"
The Normal school, the Lunalilo
home, the Planters Experiment sta
ton and Oahu college were pointed out
i'm turn and then a delightful run up
over the ManOa line was made. Kali
muki was the next point visited and
then Waikiki. From Waikiki the car
took the visitors out the length of the
King street line and returned to town
shortly before noon
The whole trip occupit d about three
hours and it Is safe to say that no
party in Honolulu ever spent a more
enjoyable morning. 1t is the idea OF
the Rapid Transit people to make the
Seeing Honolulu" cars permanently.

there for two days being cleaned and
reprinted. After leaving the dry dock
she remained anchored off Goat Island

of much hospitality but they declared
this morning that they were well salts
fled to return to Honolulu. The vessel
brought new chief officer i'm the per-
son of James b. Barneson. He was
formerly master of the transport War
rem and later chief officer of the Great
Northern 5. S. Dokota. Barneson was
master of the Warren when she
brought the news of the death Of Pre-

The staff of officers is as follows Basil

The vessel did not take on any more

considerable overhauling of a minor
character to do to some of the telegraph
instruments.

During the stay of the vessel in San

knowledge Of carpentry work and this
is what she did after "a few weeks in
struction."
There were tool chests. and shadow
sticks and mineral boxes and dozens
of other things about the room i'm which
busy crowd of girls were working
and these were the work of the students
at the Normal.
we have this manual work twice
week" said Principal Wood. "Some
of the students show remarkable APP
tltude for work of the sort and in a
short time can turn out really excellent
articles OF course we are not at
tempting to make carpenters out Of
school teachers. but you Sc. many of
the teachers go back to country dis
tricts and the work that they can do
in showing the children how to do
things is of the greatest value"
Next to the room i'm which the ham
mers and nails were coming into noisy
conflict was the kitchen and here there
were a dozen or more engaged in the
somewhat prosaic occupation of wash
ing dishes.
1--WE aim to teach the teach rs some
| thing i'm the way of preparing simple
meals" explained the principal and as
| far as possible we make the work self
sustaining. We raise our own vege-
| tables. and the result of the cooking
classess work is sold every day to
such as wish to buy it. For instance
today we had beef stew. To the chill
dren in school the stew with bread and
butter was sold for five cents and that

! ing department is also connected with
the cooking in fact this might almost
be called the housekeeping depart
ment"
Just at this time the Rev. Alexander
Macintosh, principal of the Royal
School appeared on the scene and in
company with him a visit was paid to
the truck" garden which the normal
ties are looking after. There were po-
tatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, radishes,
pumpkins, squashes, watermelons, to-
matoes bananas and dozens of other
plants in process of cultivation and
all were plainly looked after with sc
dulous care.
I'VE use the veg tables in the
kitchen" repeated the principal while
Canon Macintosh was volunteering
sage advice on fertilizers and we have
had remarkably fine results. This
land on the slope of Punchbowl is very
productive indeed as the garden shows.
Altogether the practical work of th'
Normal School must be seen to be APP
preciated. Excellent lessons are be
ing given in matters which are or
dinarily left alone and teachers go GU
into the more remote districts of Ha
wall with an ability to instruct thei
charges in the rudiments. at all events
of mechanical work and of civilized liv
ing.

MEADE'S FIRE
WAS A BAD ONE
HEROIC MEN LOSE THEIR LIVES
IN ATTEMPTS TO SAVE A TRANS
PORT FROM DESTRUCTION

The Chronicle of February / gives
an interesting account of the fire on
the army transport Meade. 1t will
be remembered that the first cable dis
patch which told of the fire said that
the loss would be about 100000 but the
next day the loss was cut down to only
$25. From the Chronicles account the
first story would appear to have been
correct. 1t runs thus:
A fire that baffled the best efforts
of the local department broke out late
last night in the hold of the transport
Meade lying at Folsom street wharf.
The flames were eating their way
rapidly among the combustible cargo
far down in the hold when the first en-
CINE arrived and, despite the heroic
work of the fire fighters and the crew
of the vessel it continued to spread.
Out of the matches poured volumes of
smoke so dense and checking that it
seemed as if furniture stored low down
in the big vessel must be all ablaze.
At l o'clock this morning a second
alarm was rung in and the dock was
soon crowded with apparatus. All the
city ambulances were called out to as
6lSL III CtillllB III TIC AllJ ulCh'
Fully twenty were overcome by the
deadly fumes arising from the hold
several seriously and one, Third officer
George Wallace of the Meade, seemed
to be dying. Fourth officer Dahl who
was overcome at the same time was
raving as a result of his own frightful
experienced and the horror of seeing
his fellow officer fall lifeless, as he sup
posed, at his feet. Wallace was treat
ed by DR.. Devereaux, United States
Navy, on the dock for fifteen minutes
and then was taken to the Harbor Hos
pital There he was placed on the ta-
BILE and treatment was renewed but
it was quickly discovered that he was
dead.
Wallace was 25 years old and a ma
tive of Sydney, New South Wales
He had lived in this country, however
for several years. His bravery during
the early part of the fire was among
the conspicuous incidents of a night
crowded with deeds Of heroism.
Battalion Chief I. N. Fernandez,
with his men, were the first to reach
the scene of the fire. Locating the
trouble in hatch No. 2, he had the
hose taken down there, a number Of
men remaining to hold and direct it.

He appeared to be happy over his 70
lease, but nevertheless stated that he
was willing to stay in Jail if necessary
and if the Grand Jury wanted.
The Supreme Courts ruling is in ac-
cordance with the custom and practice
in other American jurisdictions. Ho-
nolulu has long been an exception to
the general rule, in the matter of maxi
ing fuss and pilikia over Grand Jury
secrecy. While in other places Grand
Jury proceedings, when important, are
usually reported at length, Honolulu
Grand juries have repeatedly summon
ed press representatives, in the appar-
ent hope of citing them for contempt,
for publishing any news at all of their
doings.

ONOMEA FIRE

manned at his post and the centrifugalS
were left to take care of themselves.
Through the superhuman efforts of
Engineer Cant and Assistant Manager
Silver the flames were kept away from
the mill proper and i'm this way much
of the valuable machinery in that
structure was saved. What was left in
the boiling house is principally a massl
of twisted iron. The main vacuum pan
filled with juice in practically intact
on its foundation and not warped by
the heat, the result of the juice being it
it. Some of the newer centrifugals
may be overhauled and made ready
for use when the mill is reftted but
all of the old time centrifugals are be-
yond repair. 1t is believed that with
in three months, possibly two, the mill
will be again in service.
Manager Moir was in Hamakua when
the fire broke out and returned at the
earliest moment after hearing the
bad news. His assistant, Mr.. Silver,
and Engineer e. Cant worked like
heroes and by careful management had
a corps of men at work saving all prop
erty that it was possible to reach. The
first notice Hilo had OF a t1re was a red
glow to the north of town and many
supposed it was nothing more than
trash fire but as the glow increased i'm
brightness alarm was felt and a tele-
phone message brought back the dread
full news. Crowds of people went down
to the water front from which place
fine view of the fire could be had and
many persons journeyed to the scene
i'm carriages, automobiles and on horse
back. The Olaa people went to the
fire i'm autos and in horseback and lent
valuable aid. There were fifteen thou
sand bags of sugar destroyed, that
amount having been sacked and left in
the sugar house preparatory to ship
ment on Monday About eight hou
sand bags had been taken from the
mill during the two previous days and

A MILLION
AND A WIFE
MRS YERKES SETTLES THE IN
COME OF A MILLION DOLLARS
ON HER NEW HUSBAND.

CHICAGO, January 31.-Accordng
to dispatches received here today from
New York Mrs. Yerkes, before her
marriage to Wilson Miner of San
Francisco settled the income from
81, 100000 upon the bridegroom. mas
much as there is no stipulation in
Yerkes' will forbidding her to re-
marry, it is also predicted that she will
now seek her dover rights in the
estate, instead of accepting the sum
allotted in the will.
Chicago lawyers familiar with the
will say there is nothing in the way of
such a course, should she elect to get
more out of the estate than was pro-
vided i'm the WILL Under the law her
dover rights would include one-third
of the personal property outright and a
life interest in one third of the estate.
OF Yerkes estate it is estimated that
more than $4,000 600 is i'm personal
property. She can also claim home
stead right i'm the New York mansion.
Her dover rights also grant her the
privilege of leaving this property to
her children, or, lacking issue, she can
will it to any one she elects If Mrs.
Yerkes Miner goes after her dover
rights it will mean considerably more
/ than the 100000 left her by the trac-
ton magnate.
1t is thought here that all these
/ things have been considered. While
/ Mrs. Miner is 80 years of age and her
new husband barely 30, he is said to
have a clear idea Of the value of stocks
and bonds.
The story of how for seventeen years
Chicago society turned it's back upon
this sensitive woman makes most
interesting chapter in a life that has
seen much of sadness. When the trac-
ton magnate married her, the daugh-
ter of a poor preacher, and suddenly
thrust her into riches and stiff forma
society, the ordeal was most trying
1t should have been hard enough hat
society welcomed her, but it rejected
her through the belief-undoubtedly
unjust-that she had been responsible,
for the separation of Yerkes and hi
first wife. Elaborate receptions wer,
given by Yerkes, but only men, mostly
bankers, attended. Subsequent socia
successes in New York and London die
not serve to break the social ice il
Chicago, and now that Mrs. Yerkes hal
again married, the smart set here il
more indignant than ever.

players think they are doing with the
Grand Jury. At any rate the steady
and open defiance will spur the Jurors
to greater efforts.
Amin, the star witness, was closely
questioned i'm the jury-room about the
proposition of police protection, but he
denied any knowledge of any such pro-
lection. I'm fact Amin was asked who 1t
was he paid for protection. Revela-
ttons are said to have been made show
ing some very suspicious circumstances

police officers, but Amin simply stuck
to a general denial that he knew any
thing about che IA.
All day yesterday in the face of very
severe examination. Y. Amin denied be-
fore the Grand Jury that he knew any"
thing about che ia. Attorney General
Peters did the questioning for the jury,
and he asked the witness over and over
again. the same question i'm different
ways but Amin refused to admit that
he had ever played che IA, or knew
who was playing
one of the toughest questions put to
Amin was as to why he had refused i'm
the first place to answer the question
as to whether he had played the game
or not Amin declined to answer this
question until forced to answer by cor
tempt proceedings. Then he answered
no. The jury wanted to know why, if
he was not playing, he declined to an
swer on the ground that an answer
might incriminate him.
Amin said that he had not had any
time to think about it, He had been
taken off the street by the Grand Jury
and had had no chance to consult adj
visers. He answered all questions he
said, until it came to that one, and
then he wanted time to think about it.
There was a long questioning on this
