A LIVELY PASSAGE
FOR TIE COOKIES
Bin, Pop.

NEW YORK, Sept 16.-Passengers
who arrived here yesterday on the
Cunard steamship Etruria agreed that
they had had about the toughest
passage on record, and even the officers
allowed that the wind had blown
The racks We're on the tables when
the ship got to Quarantine because even
at breakfast off Fire Island the sea
was still heavy. At least two of the
passengers showed marks of their ex-
periences-they had been rolled from
their berths on Tuesday night. one
man, a Mr.. Bennett, got a bad scalp
wound
It came on to blow on Monday night,
and on Tuesday the seas We're terrific.
Pretty nearly every passenger was
sick. One old lady got in the main
saloon and knelt in prayer. One of
the officers told her that there was no

chances. Before [ left New York
fortune teller told me that if L took an
ocean voyage I would never get back
alive. I must do something to counter
act that prophecy will continue my
prayer"
Then there was a rather nervous
man. When he was awakened early
Tuesday morning by the rolling of the
vessel he got the life belt from under
his bunk and without waiting to put on
all of his clothing ran on deck. There
he ran about until two stewards as
sured hin. that he would be called in
time when the ship began to sink. Then
he went back to his stateroom.
A woman missed her husband and
hunted in all parts of the ship known
to her, but she could not find him. She
got the notion that he had fallen over
board, and eyewitnesses declare that
she wanted to go overheard to see if he
was there. Later she found him in the
smoke room; sitting up with a tall glass
of Scotch and soda.
Among the passengers on the Etruria
We're Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. NJ. Cooke, of

OTHER PINES WANT

Editor Advertiser: In very inter

that Wahiawa is not the only place on
these islands where pineappies are
grown and an extraordinarily fine
aroma and an excellent sweetness" is
claimed just as well by the pineapple
growers on Maui, as it is no doubt also
by those in Hilo and in Kona. MIR,
E1schner is no doubt fairminded and
would not want to award the laurel

competition. There is an expert Flori-

ma, Who can say? Competition in Ha-
waiiau canned pineapple is getting keen
and auy direct assertions in regard to
quality as by Mr.. Elsehner are liable
to be made stock of and possibly hurt
othe- packers in these islands. All we
want is fair play with the rest and a
chance for the wreath. Unless Mr..
Elschner has examined further than
Just at Wahiawa. he can not he quail
fed to state more than that all indica-
tions seem to point to the Hawaiian

Following the reading of this paper
a bag of dried fruit was passed around.
The fruit proved to be strips of the
mango dried in the sun, most palata-
bic and delicious edible, almost in a
candied form, although no foreign
agents had been used in preparing 1t.
This is a product which Mr.. Thomas
of Wahiawa brought to the meeting.
He said the strips were dried in the
sun for three days. The delicaey of
the fruit was a revelation to those pres
ent and the opinion was expressed that
dried mangoes would be a profitable
industry and could easily replace dried
apples.
Jared Smith read a paper on Fruit
Culture as an Industry in the Hawaiian
Islands, He told of the vast POSSIBLE
ties of fruit raising and the great
and increasing demand for tropical
fruits on the mainland. Already 81,
100000 worth of fruits are imported
from Hawaii and Porto Rico. There
could be no overproduction in Hawaii.
The development of the fruit trade
here depended upon the quality, the
packing and the efficiency of the trans
portation facilities, and, last but not
least. the advertising given it. Two
years ago the Hawaii Experiment Sta
ton had experimental in shipping ALI
gator pears TO the New York market
and successfully The pears were pro

experiment last year did not turn out
so well because the shipment was held

CASE CONTINUED

Judge Robinson granted the motion
of defendants for continuance to the
January term of the damage suits of
w. c. Weldon against Mr.. and Mrs.
C. W. Chaplin. E. NJ. Watson also had
his motion for a commission to take
the testimony of defendants amended
so as to have the American consul at

officiate. The attorney said in court
his clients would testify that Weldon
was riding on the wrong side of the
road, while Mrs. Chaplin was driving
her automobile on the side she ought to,
when the collision occurred. They
would also testify that the automobile
had stopped and Weldon IS horse, I'M
controlled by its rider, ran into the
machine. A Perry and l.. A. Thurs
ton are attorneys for plaintiff. The
suits are for $4,000 damages. Mr..
Weldon was badly done up in the mis-
hap, being laid up for many weeks.
A decision was given in the Kunul-
akea estate case by Judge Robinson,
being that the claimants had not proved
their righs to the property. S. III. Der
by for the claimants had stated that
he would put on no more evidence,
seeing that the court had indicated
its belief that the claims had not been
established J. J. Dunno, as amicus

ing he was prepared with further evil
dence in support of the opposition to
claimants. Mr.. Derby, the ruling hav-
