The Obligations of Savings Bank,

The Savings Bank is the creature of
the people From the people it receives
its privileges and protection and to the
people it stands obligated for it's
existence, its privileges and it's protec-
ton. AS it receives so should it give,
and in no way can it give more than to
invest the money of its depositors at
home where it will help to foster and
build up home enterprises, the life of the
community.
The Hyde Park Savings Bank has
always felt the business of this obliga-
ton, the burden of this responsibility,
and has always invested its money in
Vermont, where it not only helps the
depositor and the state, but is safest for
the bank

The Nobel literary prize which will be
awarded to Rudyard Kipling is valued
at 100000. No man, however great, is
always at his best, but it is seldom that
such extremes Equality are found in an
authors writings as Mr.. Kipling has
displayed. The New York World
recognizes this when it speaks of his
"dreary verse" and "drearier prose-" and
then adds: But the pen that perpetrat-
ed this stuff has also the double distinc-
ton OF having put ON paper both the
finest imaginative verse and the finest
imaginative and descriptive prose writ
ten in the English language in more than
one generation. This is his achievement
which well deserves the prize Brat

FLOOD OF JAPS
MAY BE STOPPED

WASHINGTON, January 25.-Com-
missioner of Immigration Sargent re-
ceived a report from Commissioners
North today on the Korea and Ala
media cases. The report states that
careful examination shows evidences
that thirty-seven of the Japanese on
the Alameda had come to this country
under contract, but that as they had
landed in Honolulu and remained there
for some days or weeks, they could not
be denied entry. OF the 4S4 on the ko-
rea, thirteen showed evidence that they
were contract laborers, but they also
had been allowed to land first in Ho-
nolulu and could not be excluded on
that account. Besides the thirteen,
there We're 162 who said they were GO
ing to work on the railroads, but they
did not know what roads.
1t is believed from evidence adduced
in the examination that most OF the
Japanese now coming here are under
contract for one to four years, and
that they are brought over by steam
ship companies or immigration socie-
ties. They apparently are billed IN
most cases to Honolulu, and getting
better offers to work on the minland,
they go there. Sargent expects to Sc
cure evidence which ultimately will en-
able him to stop the landing of contract
laborers in Honolulu, He says that he
examined many Japanese there per-
sonally, and they declared that they
go there because they wished to better
their conditions and knew that there
was plenty Of work to be had. They
said they We're induced to so in soma
cases by friends who received them on
landing. They all gave replies which
showed that they had been carefully
coached. and they usually had about
$50 in money and We're physically
sound.
North win continue to observe the
immigrants with the hope of gathering
evidence which win assist in stopping
the making of a halfway house OF Ho-
nolulu.

[. TENNEY PECK SAW
EVERYTHING BUT SNAKES

L. Tenney Peck, who was called to
Hilo as a juryman in the Federal court
on Tuesday, returned on the Enter
prise yesterday, The court convened
Wednesday night and a special venire
was called the next morning when, the
box being filled, and no defendant on
hand, Judge Dole excused those jurors
whom he felt it would be necessary to
be in Honolulu on Saturday. Mr.. Peck
was one of them. With one other he
left for Kilauea on the afternoon train
Thursday arriving at the Volcano
House shortly after six in the evening.
when we arrived everyone was at
the crater so there was neither guide
nor horse. Demosthenes hustled some
boys with lanterns and sent them to

THRILLING SIGHT ON
HIGH SLOPES OF THE
BURNING MOUNTAIN

this time 1t cleared up again over the
lake that had formed and the beautiful
flashes were gone and the lake seemed
to have greatly cooled off. About this
time a bright of thin lava came down
behind the hill that had formed In the
gulch and began to disappear behind
II and for a few moments seemed to
have gone on in some manner under
meath the hill, but shortly the whole
mass began to turn and then gradually
growing hotter. large boulders began
to leave the immense mass and roll
down its face. These, after an in
teryal were followed by a sliding OF
the face of the hill; then the whole
immense mass fiattened out down the
face of the mountain spreading out
fan-shaped and covering, 1t seemed,
territory at least a mile wide and Tar
down the mountain side to great
depth of a-a. The formation and
breaking away of this hill was most
interesting, showing how mounds and
hills are made and unmade In few

clouds moved away, that there were
no indications of Its existence. Dur

that these beautiful flashes were caus-
ed by electrical conditions. as I could
distinctly hear peals of thunder in that
direction. There We're many other

a residence of twenty-five years In

DIR. C. 3. Greenfield died last Friday
at his residence in Honokaa, after an
illness lasting some weeks. His con-
dition had been serious for some time
and the end was not unexpected. DR..
Greenfield had lived in the islands many
years and his death was source of
grief to very many friends. He was
an Englishman by birth, SO years of
age and former surgeon of the Royal
Navy. He left wife and seven chill

BIC JUNKET
PROPOSED

Secretary Paris has heard from Mr.
Mcclellan. private secretary to tn
Delegate. on the subject Of harbor ap
propriations. An extract from the let
ter is as follows;
"Snce my cablegram In regard L
harbor appropriations, ! have sga't
had assurance that the bill to be re
ported next week will carry 100000 foi
Honolulu and Hilo harbors. In view o.
the fact that the committee regarded
the reports as ambiguous. this larg'
sum is a particularly gratifying victor,
for Hawaii"
Mr.. Mcclellan evidently has the I'm
terests of the country at heart and II
watching every move that tends to-
ward progress here. He is anxious tC
have a delegation of Congress visit
Honolulu and the Territory generally
during the session and has written Mr.
Paris as follows:

Dear Sirs: BY this mail the Delegate
to Congress is sending to Governor
Carter a formal recommendation that
the Legislature be asked to authorize
the Delegate to invite about twenty
members of Congress. with their wives.
to visit Hawaii during June or July as
the guests of the Territory. The Leg
islature should provide for the expense
involved, although If an inadequate
sum were voted 1t would doubtless be
to the interest of the commercial bodies
to make up the amount.

pointedly expressed the desire to do So
All of us who are working for Ha-
waiian interests here ere agreed that
in view of the large sums we are to
ask for each year the bringing out of
selected congressional party would be
one of the best investments that the
Territory could ever MIKE.
And If for any reason the Legislature
fails to act promptly IN the matter, 1T
would be well worth while for the COM

to the Delegate By February 20.
A list of names has already been dis
cussed, and none would be invited ex-
cept such as would be unanimously
agreed upon by the Delegate, Mr.. Hatch
and myself.
In the event of the invitation being
made by the commercial bodies, the
Hilo Board Of Trade should meet the
expense of Hilo trip; it would also be
desirable for personal reasons that
some of the members be entertained
in private houses. which would lessen
the expense as well.

transportation would be from Chicago.

from the Pacific Mail CO. through their
representative here.

statement that crater might be FORM
ed in the future on the southwestern
slope OF Mauna Loa Is. to my mind
very likely to occur. 1t was the good
fortune of the writer to be at the Ka-
buku flow on the night that the flow
ceased. shortly after the cessation of
the flow down the mountain side a
large lake OF lava formed on the high
er hill above where the flow turned
towards Kona. Having n very power
full glass took pains to closely OBJ
serve the formation of this lake. The
side toward the mountain was high
cliff. perpendicular several hundred
feet. AS the lake began to fill up with
LIQUID lava. this cliff became brightly
Illuminated and one could see by the
reflections that 1t was rapidly filling.
Upon reaching the level of the lower
side toward Kona, the lava flowed for
a short distance and disappeared. This
lake 1 should judge was at least half a
mile long and perhaps as wide. Short
ly after forming there began to arise
upon the surface many vivid flashes,
assuming something the shape OF
Monterey cypress trees. but huttering
rapidly and becoming so numerous
that they finally merged into one broad
sheet OF flame. These flashes were OF
the mast vivid colors. red, green, yell
low and in fact, all the colors OF the
rainbow. 1t was continued hash
from one end to the other. Shortly
after the clouds obscured the view
and only dim reflection could be seen.
Meanwhile, apparently about a mile
away and slightly lower in elevation
in a deep gulch, hill began to form,
growing rapidly and becoming as 1t
grew of duh reddish brown. This
hill increased to an immense size,
growing wider until. 1 may say, 1t
was at least as large as Diamond
Head. grandly glowing, then dying
out to a dull red. The "a seemed to
be forming solid hill and one that
