Miss Montgomery took down her curl
 papers. donned her holiday attire and
 went shopping yesterday. From the
 shank of the morning to the hook of
 the evening shop keepers and their
 employees crowded on steam to accom-

 who had money with which to buy. It
 was the shortest and the busiest day of
 the year.

 of the last day. It was Saturday, per-

 loosening up in the financial situation.
 All of these things injected ginger into
 the retail trade. The appeal of the
 shopkeepers for all who could come and do their holiday buying early also had its effect.

 The horse naturally plays a conspic- nous part in mall carrying, although the almost monopolizing role which 1t played a half century ago has been largely succeeded by more modern methods of conveyance. Still the equine is prominent in the large cities everywhere in collecting the mails and in delivery to sub-stations and he is an indispensable adjunct of the rural deliveries.

SAMOA ALSO
MAKES 4 KICK
WITHDRAWAL OF THE OCEANIC
STEAMERS CUTS OFF REGULAR
MAIL AND FREIGHT SERVICE.

The Samoanische zeitung publishes
the following:
From latest American papers we
learn that the Oceanic Steamship Com
pany is on the verge of financial col
lapse, the loss of the mail contracts
resulting in an annual deficit of $780,
900. On this account the company was
forced to withdraw it's steamers from
the Colonial service. The company
has not stated its intentions relative
to the disposal of the three steamers
employed on the San Francisco-Auck-
land-Sydney route, but it is expected
that they will be offered for sale; Jap
an being possible purchaser.
"The withdrawal of the Oceanic line
of steamers from this service mas
wrought, and will work great changes
and important substitutions in the traf-
fic of that part of the Pacific which it
served. For instance, in the case OF
Samoa, it deprives both the German
and American possessions of regular
and direct commercial connection with
the United States, and to great extent
with Europe also. AS regards Tutuila
it has been up to the present, entirely
cut off from direct steamer communi-
cation with the rest of the world. The
Union S. S. Company has now also
decided to include Tutuila in the in
ter-island run, and the steamers Of
this line will call regularly every
month at Page Page
This withdrawal also cut New Zea'
land off from a through service with
the North American continent, the
Canadian-Australian line not touching
at New Zealand. Australia and FIJI
by the last-named line have still
direct sefvice with British North Am
erica. But it is hardly to be credited
that after having enjoyed a mucl
quicker and better service for so man!

and New Zealand will consent for lon
to remain with no better facilities an,

SUCCESSFUL TEACHERS.

considerable weight and may be grant
ed. At least he means to recommend
it to the Board at its next meeting. 1t
is as follows:

Kipahulu, Maui, seeing the appoint
ment of Mr.. and Mrs. Taylor for Ko-
nawaena, Hawaii, wish to enter pro
test to have them remain here as we
have the utmost confidence in them.
They have built up the school and the
yard is a credit to them.
when they came here the yard was
full of lantana and weeds and now it
is full of fruit trees and flowers, so
we think they ought to enjoy a little
of their labor, and we hope the Honor
able Board of Commissioners will lis

CRUISER HAD
NARROW ESCAPE
THE MILWAUKEE, NEARLY HIT A
LOG RAFT THAT WOULD HAVE
SUNK HER.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-THE
United States cruiser Milwaukee, rae
ing from here to Central America to
protect Americans, narrowly missed
running INTO a great log raft at Point
Arguello the night of June 30. The
tug Dauntless was towing from Astoria
to San Diego raft containing 5000
logs. It had a displacement of 10000
tons and was bound together by $780, 900
worth of log chains.
Capt. Downey of the tug says it was
dark, dirty night and the lights on
the raft had blown out. The Dauntless
had hove to willie the crew were max
ing a trip to the raft to relight the
lamps.
SUDDENLY a great white shape loomed
up, heading straight for the Daunt'
less. 1t was the Milwaukee.
Not until within 200 feet of the tug
did the cruisers lookout sight the
towboat's lights; then the cruiser
swerved just in time to avoid running
down the tug. The lookout did moi
discover the raft astern until the cruis'
err had cleared the Dauntless. Those
on the tug heard him cry, What in
hell" Then they heard him hail the
bridge. The Milwaukee's siren shrek
ed and the cruiser disappeared in the
fog.
