SAN FRANCISCO CABLE ANNOUN--

HAWAIIAN PAYMENT.

Alexander & Baldwin this morning
received cable from San Francisco to
the effect that the monthly dividend of
the Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar
Company would be paid this month on
the tenth, instead of the fiftlE The
delay in owing to the disaster at San
Francisco, where the company has it's
headquarters, and is much less delay
than was expected.
After the earthquake a cable was
sent from here asking what would be
done, as much of the stock Is held
here. 1t was expected that it would
take some time to reorganize business
affairs and pay the usual dividends,
but the cable received this morning
shows that matters are rapidly getting
into shape again, and it is regarded as
very encouraging sign for Hawaiian
securities on the coast.

The New
Reservoir
And Filters
HOLLOWAY SAYS THE PROPOSED
FILTRATION SITE is TOO Low
IN NUUANU.

The filtration plant proposition is one
for the Legislature, said Superintend-
ent Holloway this morning. Holloway
is not doing anything in the matter at
present, having no appropriation. He
is opposed anyhow, to having a plant
in the location formerly chosen in
Nuuanu valley, on the ground that it
is too low.
AT the time that site was approved,
said Holloway, I'VE We're not supply
ing such districts as Mauoa. A filtra-
ton plant on the site in question would
be at such a low elevation that water
would not reach some of Manoa. For
that reason l think it should be higher
up, at the number one reservoir at
least, perhaps at the big new reser-
voir."
The new reservoir is to hsve a capa-
city of about 450,N 900 gallons and
will, it is expected, make the local sup
ply abundant. Holloway was asked
this morning when he thought it would
be finished, and said he thought it
would be at least a year from now.
THE completion of this reservoir, 4"
said the superintendent, will do much
to improve the local supply so that fill
tration will not be so necessary. The
present reservoirs are so small that
mud does not settle. In the big lake
the water will settle and it will be
clear without filtration, However, the
subject is one for the legislature to con-
slider"

SHERIFF BROWN ORDERS THE
DISMISSAL OF OFFICER KUPI-
KEA AT WAIANAE.

THE wishes of the board of super
visOrs relative to the dismissal of Of
ficer j. Kupihea of the Waianae dis
trict, have already been complied with"
said County Sheriff Brown this after
noon. Il have ordered Deputy Sheriff
Holt to discharge him at once and I
presume the order has been carried out
ere this.
II have not decided whom to appoint
as the successor of Kupihea. A man
from Honolulu may be sent temporarily
to take his position. If the conditions
of gambling are as serious as the re-
uOrt made to the supervisors last night
indicates, it ought be an excellent thing
to send some alert man who is new Ia
that district, to start a crusade on the
gambling"

Cheap and Effective House Cooling
System Put in Use in Mon
tana Town.

Helena, Mont.--The town OF Thomp-
son Falls, in Missoula county, has a
strange system of cold storage. In the
hottest days In summer IL is possible
to keep living rooms at a temperature
Of SO degrees, and butter, eggs and
meat are kept cool and frl sh without
the least trouble. The best part of the
cold storage system is that II costs alb
solutely nothing after the plant has
been installed.
Thompson Falls has large number
OF wells that furnish cold, fresh air,
which rushes upward all summer long.
The wells are dug for water. but the
supply of cold air Is fully as important.
The wells of Thompson Falls are
little more than GO feet in depth. The
water veins are found in gravel
formation and are doubtless fed by the
mountain SHOWS at some distant place.
The gravel is porous enough to admit
Of freely moving current of air.

upward in currents strong enough to
snuff out a match held over the wells.
me- utIity vi lHc Soiu All CuiIeutS
was first observed in 1884, when the
Thompson Falls Mercantile company
used the cool air to keep butter, eggs
and meat in large quantities. The air
can be piped in summer to rooms OF
houses. The wells are covered over
tightly at the top. and large pipes tap
the current a few feet below the sur
face of the ground. These pipes con-
duct the air to different rooms In
nearby buildings.
For cold storage plants, a house Is
built above the well and the air rushes
upward continuously, keeping the tenn
perature at an unvarying point.
