EDUCATION BY FLEET

The Cruiser fleet has come and
gone. To epitomize the variety OF
ways in which the visitation has done
Hawaii good is a large task.
Some men will think first of the
money the men of the ship have left
in the town. The amount is not in
significant. but this fact is a mere
incident of the benefits this COM
munity has derived.
The size of the ships, the power OF
men and metal, the preparedness OF
the whole outfit has been an eye
opener to more than one citizen. II
may have had an effect on alien res
idents. If so we have no doubt 1t has
been good one.
Our own people should be inspired
to renew the struggle for the equip
ment of Pearl llarbor so that 1t will
be possible to take care of such war
ships, and relatively large and pow
errul merchant ships during peace or
war. We want Pearl Harbor opened
and developed. The country needs
Pearl Harbor, which is useless UNI
less opened and developed.
There is no doubt of the value to
this city and the nation, of whatever
influence our people can exert to
secure the recognition by Congress
of American necessities in the Pa.
cific. Pearl llarbor is one of the
first.

Series
Of Burg|ariaS
At Beach

A remarkable series OF burglaries
have taken place on the beach near
Diamond Head within the past month
and the police say that they know
nothing about 1t. The burglar picked
his victims among the aristocracy, Sc
'ecting Hawaii's only two ex-gover-
nors, one eminent divine and a promi-
nent member of the bar. Still Sheriff
IauSea, when asked about the matter,
said that he knew nothing about 1t,
except that he had heard that a watch
had been taken from the S. b. Dole
place. He had not been handling the
case, he continued, but had left this
to other officers of the department.
The other heads Of the department
were asked, but they professed to
know even less about 1t than their SUI
perior.
In the mean time II is only charit-
able to state that the police were not
quite as ignorant as they professed to
lie. II Is known that at least one of
The victims made a report to the po-
lice. but he stated today that he
doubted very much that they had
done anything about the matter. 1t

AN ODD MISTAKE

When Mrs. Morton returned to her
home at Makiki, after an absence of
a week in the country, she missed
her jewel case, and Immediately not
flied the police that 1t had been stol-
en-; it turned out, however to be a
mistake. Morton, who is a prudent
man. had taken. the case and placed
it in the Safety Deposit Vault of the
Henry Waterhouse Trust Company,
Ltd. He says "A man can't afford to
take chances, when absolute security
can be obtained for four dollars a
year"

CRUISER FLEET BOYS
ENTERTAIN CITY
Thousands Crowd Naval
Wharf And
Dance
DECORATIONS GRAND,
SHIPS ILLUMINATED
The Navy Boys Did the Honors
Of the Occasion Like Old
Masters and Pleased
Everyone.

The reception rendered to the Hoo
nolulu public by the boys of the Navy
last night was decided success IN
every way. The decorations used on
the previous evening at the Admiral's
reception were left In place yesterday
and served their purpose last night.
Many, on pleasure bent, sought the
entrance gates long before the APP
pointed hour for opening. BY the
time the reception was in full swing
there were many hundreds of specta-
tors watching the gay sights from
every point of vantage.
On went the dance to the sweet
strains of the Ellis Quintet alternated
by music from the flagships band.
Refreshment booths lined all sides OF
The wharf, and with the effects of the
many brilliant lights presented an APP
pearance that will linger in the minds
Of all who attended for many days to
come.
During the day the Navy boys had
smoothed up the asphalt dock to the
best Of their ability, and it was not SC
bad to dance on as one might suppose
The illumination of the ships was
repeated last night. This feature in
itself was enough to draw many Ia
the waterfront who had missed the
sight on the previous evening.
Governor Frear, Admiral Dayton
of the Pacific fleet, Admiral Very OF
the Hawaii Naval Station and thu
commanders of each of the cruisers
were each honored by dance. The
Hawaiian National Guard and Ha'
waiian band were also remembered
and the boys did not forget to dedi-
cate a dance to the beaten st. Louis
baseball team. ,.sl
Pretty souvenirs in the shape Of bit;
Of ribbon were handed to all the fail
ones attending. to be cherished as re-
membranes of the occasion. The
dancing did not let up until quite late
Rapid Transit cars ran It'll o'clock
but hardly anyone thought of going
home at that early hour.
1t was well said farewell to the
Navy boys, one that will be remem-
bered by both SIDES

seems probable that the police, de-
spairing Of being able to land the
criminal. have preferred to let 1t be
enveloped in silence in order that
their shortcomings should not come
before the notice of the public.
It was learned today that the first
Of the burglaries was made at Judge
Dole's place. Here a watch belonging
to Chinese servant was taken.
Shortly after this the burglar made
an attempt at entering the house of
G. L. Clemens, the attorney. He was
in the act of crawling through an open
window when Clemens was awakened
by the noise he made. The lawyer
was not armed. but he ran to the win
dow and called out to the man, who
Immediately fled. At later hour
during this same night the burglar
entered the kitchen of the Kaalawai
beach residence of Rev. John osborne,
hit at this place he was also dlscov-
cred and had to make his escape with
out securing any booty.
A short time later a burglar. pre-
cumably the same man, entered the
Kaalawai beach home Of Ex-Governor
Carter. 1t could not be ascertained
today how much he got away with. as
Carter could not be found, but It is
reported that he made quite haul.
Clemens did not get a good view of
the mans face, but he described him
as being rather short, thick set, wear
ing a coat with the collar turned up.
He wore no hat. Both Clemens and
Carter think that he is a Hawaiian
who was until recently in custody at
the Oahu jail

The general tone of dispatches sent
out from Washington seems to be
such as will educate the people to
the value of building more ships for
the navy. The response is generally
of a character to satisfy those who
understand the great value of these
ships as national insurance.

Sergeant Bard has received a tele-
gram from the War department at
Washington stating that all men en-
listing in the Richmond district can
have the choice of a position in the
18th United States infantry located
at TT. Benz Harrison at Indianapolis,
over all other stations, if they should
not wish to leave the state. This will
mean much to some men who have
probably contemplated enlisting, but
did not want to go far from home.
Clerk is Sent Here.
Sergeant Frank T. Gilbert of the
general staff, has been assigned as as
sistant to Sergeant Bard and will act
in the capacity of advertising clerk to
the local station. He reported here
Saturday and probably will remain
with the station here, for at least
three months.
Sergeant Bard has also received no.
tice from the department that here
after the salaries of all men enlisting
will be increased from s13-s75 per
month to s15-s94 per month This
will undoubtedly be a greater induce
ment, and means the government is
very anxious to get a better quality
of men in the service. Quantity
counts for nothing with Uncle Sam.
A request for two plumbers. two
painters. and one machinist from the
Richmond district accompanied Ser
geant Bard's orders Saturday. In
case these men are enlisted they will
be assigned to duty with the signal
corps at Washington, d. c.

Union for the quality of men sent in
