HAS COMMENCED WORK

The new okolehao distillery in
South Kona started work Thursday.
Ralph tombstone and c. D. Pringle
of the internal revenue department
were present to see the work inaugu-
rated. Mr.. tombstone will return to
Honolulu after the first of the month
but c. D. Pringle will remain, hav-
ing been appointed store-keeper gau-
ger at the new distillery, He was
formerly at the bonded warehouse
here. His place will be taken by r.
NJ. McCauley, who has been appoint
cd store-keeper gauger for the Homo
lulu warehouse.
The capacity of the new okolehao
distillery is still a prOblematicai mat
ter. The new plant is in the way of
an experiment, and nobody appears
to know yet how much okolehao can
be obtained from a bushel OF ii root.

Mr.. Myrick talked steadily on this

HAWAIIANS WANT
JACK
LUCAS FOR MAYOR

The question Of the first mayor of
Honolulu is commencing to be discus
sed along the waterfront and on street
corners. The Hawaiian workmen are
up to their ears in it at this time.
Many of them do not read nor can they
understand the English language, still
the boost of BeclEley for Governor has
reached their ears
"Moehau might be very good man,
but | think he is better off with the
title of Admiral" said one of the steve
dore leaders
Jack Panini Uucas) is my man.
said Kelekona, a road overseer, when
lack was a Supervisor he gave us
plenty to do, but when he went out
there was very little to do
Il believe Jack Lucas will make q
first class mayor" said Alapai, anoth-
er leader Of the workingmen. Jack is
a man that receives all classes OF men,
rich or poor, big or small. He is inn
partial in the discharge of his duties,
AS for Sam Parker and Moehau, they
are only good for the rich people They
would not listen to us. They would
tell us to wait until mahope.'
Jack is very popular among the
Hawaiians all along the Koolau dis
tricts," said one Of the County officials.
The natives are ready to vote for
Lucas at any time, They know very
well that if he would become the first
mayor of Honolulu there would be no
ceremony in approaching him on any
subject With him at the wheel, the
natives would feel more at home. Jack
speaks the Hawaiian language fiuently
and the natives could express them
selves openly to him without the aid
of an interpreter. The natives admit
that sometimes Jack makes some I'M
complimentary remarks, but they all
take them as mere wind. Those who
are spoken of more commonly among
the natives are Jack Lucas and Chas.
Hustace.

and tried to take away the custom
ers from the hotel men, charging
them at the same time thirty-five
cents a head for hack hire. The ho
tel men offered them more comfort
able and pleasant accommodations.
On the representations of the hotel
keepers, the immigrants deserted the
lacks which they had already noun
ted and followed up the runners.
At the terminus of the car line, in
front of the iron works. the immi-
grants were damned onto the car
and were soon at their hotels on Lii
iha street. 1t was reported by one
of the hotel runners that each immi-
grant was taxed twenty-five cents
by the runners, only five cents of
which was paid for carfare, while
twenty cents went to profit and
loss
The hack men, about thirty in all,
angered by the tricks played by the
hotel runners, attacked them merci-
lessly. Quick action by some of the
neighbors prevented what might have
been one of the most serious fights
between Japanese ever occurring in
this country.

AERIAL NAVIGATION.
Horace Walpole's Prophecy That May
Yet Be Fulfilled.

In the year 1881 the problem of hu.
man flight was occupying Il prominent
place in the public mind as 1t is
today The Frenchmau Jean Pierre
Blanchard had Just made his first as
cent from Paris In II balloon filed with
hydrogen. lie took with him wings
and a rudder, apparently proposing TO
fly but found them useless. Later
Blanchard crossed the channel in his
aerial machine Horace Walpole com
ments on the doings of the "airgo-
nauts" as he calls them You see"
he writes. 1.-THE uirgonauis have passed
the Rubieon. BY their own account
they We're exactly birds. They flew
through the air, perehed Oh the top Of
n tree; some passengers climbed up
and took them In their nest" After
seeing n balloon descending Walpole
amuses himself by meditating on the
future of what he calls "airgonation. j."
He sees the art of flying perfected and
deposing that of navigation. Flourish
ing Seaports become deserted vii
lagos, while Salisbury plain. Newman
kct heath and the downs become dock
yards for aerial vessels Public roads,
becoming useless, are broken up and
thus make II great Increase In the area
available for tillage. Walpoles proph-
eces may yet be fulfilled. = London
