RECENT IMMIGRANTS
ARE GOOD WORkMEN

While immigration Inspector r. c.
Brown refuses to make any statement
in regard to his recent trip through the
plantations on this island to examine
the conditions under which the Portu-
guese who came on the Suveric are liv-
ing, it is learned that he was very
much pleased with what he found. The
immigrants themselves are satisfied
and feel that they have been treated
very well indeed by the plantations and
have few complaints to make.
On the other hand, the managers of
the plantations are just as well satls-
fed as those who are working for them
and say that the Suverics passengers
have turned out to be good workman
and will be satisfactory in every way
just as soon as they are completely
used to the conditions here.
In regard to the Spanish immigrants
who came on the Heliopolis, the man
ayers of the plantations on Oahu are
enthusiastic over the families which
were assigned to them. Managers Ross,
Goodale and Adams, of Honolulu, Wal
alua and Kahuku plantations, all have
made verbal reports to the Board of
Immigration, in which they state that
the Spaniards are doing far better than
was expected of them. They could not
make more favorable reports than they
have,

MARINE

From Alaska to Hawaii in fifteen
days, including the time spent to load
with oil at san Francisco, seems to be
pretty fast time, but it is the record
made by the Pacific Oil Transporter
ton steamer Rosecrans, now discharg-
ing at the Railroad dock. A pretty
hard thing on the men, one would nat
urally think, TO go from the Alaskan
climate to Honolulu, but the officers
of the Rosecrans state that at Douglas
Island, near Juneau, where they were,
the weather was warm and pleasant
and that they felt no sign of cold.
The Rosecrans arrived yesterday
morning, having taken on cargo of
oil in six hours in San Francisco, and
made the run to this city in less than
eight days and a half. She brought
down nearly $4,000 barrels of oil and
will probably have finished discharging
by late this afternoon. When she
leaves for the Coast she will have the
little tug Eleu, recently purchased from
the Miller Salvage Co. by Captain Mat
son, in tow. The Eleu will be used to
tow the Santiago, which was recently
converted from bark into an oil
barge, from san Francisco to Gaviota,
the oil refinery located near Los An
geles.

EMMA r. WAY
THE STORY OF THE TRIP.
BY Samuel Johnson.

The Arab Patrol left Honolulu on
Monday, April p, 1907, on the P. NJ
s. S. Co.'S Siberia; between Honolulu
and San Francisco, the patrol was drill
ed every morning and afternoon, and
each drill was harder than any held
in Honolulu, as it was an individual
competition. The patrol was divided
into three classes, and at the end OF
the trip the two best men in each class
were TO receive first and second prize,
$50 being donated for prizes. At the
end of the competition the winners
declined to accept the prizes, and wish
ed that the money be spent for a suit
able souvenir to every member of the
Arab Patrol in memory of the enid
ocean, drill,
The best of spirit and the greatest
of enthusiasm prevailed among the
members of the Patrol at all times, it
seemed that every man was deternin-
ed to use his utmost endeavors in ev-
cry way possible to reflect credit on
Hawaii.
In San Francisco, the Patrol drilled
every day in skating rink, thus the
loss of one man from the ranks dur
ing the voyage was soon overcome, and
the patrol acquired the same efficien-
CIV in drilling with new formation as
it had with the old.
On the train to Los Angeles every
ear, fifteen, was serenaded by the
Patrol quintet, thus making warm
friends for Hawaii. The reception up
on its arrival in Los Angeles was of a
nature that will never be forgotten by
the Patrol.
From the very start, the Patrol made
a decided hit with the spectators, its
excellent appearance and drilling while
marching to the hotel was very favor
ably commented upon by the next morn
ing's press.
To familiarize one with the exhibit
ton drill grounds, the Patrol had
practice drill at Ascot Park, and as
the keeper could not be found to I'M
lock the gate. the Patrol and the ladies
accompanying it were compelled to
climb 12-foot fence to get into the
grounds. 1t can be candidly said thai
it is due to these hard and constant
drills between Honolulu and Los An
oeles that the Aloha Patrol was able
on exhibition day TO put up drIil
that was 30 per cent better than any
gwen in Honolulu.

THE TRAGIC TRAIN WRECK.

SAN FRANCISCO. May ia ter
rible tragedy ended a week Of festivity
at Los Angeles, following the entertain
ment of the Shriners. By the derailing
of a train at Honda, station fifty-nine
miles north of Los Angeles, thirty-one
persons were killed and many severely
injured. The accident was due to de-
fective railroad equipment. 1t was
thought that some part of the maehin-
cry may have dropped from the engine
and derailed the tender. The victims
were mostly from the east, many from
Reading, Pa. They were at dinner
when the crash came. The engine.
tender. baggage ear and three coaches
were heaped in a mass of wreckage IN
the ditch. The wrecked coaches caught
fire. and scores were burned and scald-
ed while lying under the debris. The
greatest loss of life occurred in the
diner. which was filed with passen-
gers. all of whom were killed, being
carried into close contact with the en-

dolph Hearst, for the ''most pie
turesque and attractive eostumed patrol
in line at La Fiesta De Los Flores, -
and it was so engraved. This cup had
no connection with the Shriners' Con-
clave. 1t was foregone conclusion
from the start that the Moslem Patrol
of Detroit would receive this cup as
it consisted of sixty men and five Off
GERS, and their costumes were being
worn for the first time, and were of
the most gorgeous nature. Due TO
worn-out condition of shoes, and the
entire loss of voice of the captain of
the Aloha Patrol, it did not take part
in the parade of "La Fiesta De Los
Flores" In fact only four patrols out
of nineteen took part in that parade.
Aside from making an excellent show
ing in parades and drills, every oppor-
tunity to do promotion work for Ha-
wall was taken advantage of by the
Honolulu party. There were 1O2 tenn
Piles at the Conclave, every State and
Territory in the United States, Canada,
British Columbia, New Brunswick and
Mexico were represented; about 10000
Shriners alone were registered at the
headquarters, thousands of visitors
came in from all parts of the country.
1t is estimated that about one-third Of
a million people witnessed the Con-
claye. Aloha Patrol made friends for
Hawaii amongst every representation
in Los Angeles, and questions concern
ing Hawaii were constantly answered.
The reception given by the Honolulu
party was very successful affair, for
which most of the credit is due TO the
Honolulu ladies. Thousands of people
were present and it was pronounced by
the press as being "one of the pleasant
est times of the week.
In conclusion, it must be said that
the trip of the Aloha Patrol to Los
Angeles was great success in every
way. and that the Patrol "made
good.n No better testimony can be
offered than that which appeared in
the editorial of the Los Angeles Times
on May 8, the morning after the drill;

EXHIBITION DRILL.

In drawing for places, the Aloha
| Patrol drew the last number; several
patrols drew out during the afternoon
| thus leaving eleven to drill. Toward
| the latter part of the afternoon the
| spectators who had for four hours
watched very much the same drilling
/ by different patrols were becoming
rather reluctant in their applause, but
with the appearance of the Aloha
Patrol, it was easily seen that it was
"the most popular of all. F." With the
very first movement which was execut-
ed with the snap not seen in other
patrols the audience stood up, applaud
ed and remained standing during the
entire drill. The drill of the Aloha
Patrol was entirely different from the
others. There was no unnecessary
| marching, all movements were execut-
ed in less than 100 feet square, and
every one toward the audience, a very
important feature. The applause and
noise made by the audience was so
loud, that at times the command could
not be heard, but the Patrol was so
| well-drilled that the men knew the
order of the drill and many move
ments were executed without the com
mand, no mistakes were made. The
spear drill received tremendous out
burst of applause. 1t was so well ex-
ecuted that fearing a mistake might be
made if done second time, it was not
repeated.
Every Patrol at the conclusion of
its drill gave a yell before departing,
everyone different and all loud and
long. Aloha Patrol being new, 1t had
no veil. so at the conclusion of the
spear drill, and when assembled, the
whole Patrol sang the chorus OF
" Aloha De. To describe the effect,
the press expression used was, 'the
audience went wild The Patrol could
not retire until "Aloha Oe' was re-
peated The general opinion of the
audience and of the different Patrols,
who had themselves drilled that after
noon. and who witnessed the drill of
the Aloha Patrol was freely expressed,
and it was said that without question,

BEST
