Compliance was given by the Cham
Der with the action of the Sugar Fac
tors Company in endeavoring to pre-
vent the Observation-Disclosures Steam
ship Co., during the year 1908, from
coming direct from Salina Cruz, Next
co, to Honolulu. This course is an al
tentative to that proposed by DR.. L.
E. Cofer, u. S. chief quarantine officer
here, of having a physician travel on
each steamer to watch against any
case of yellow fever. At a meeting
of the Merchants Association, later,
several of its members denounced the
taking of such action without first
consulting the merchants, who give a
great deal of freight to the line. Tt
was shown that the direct steamer
from the Isthmus of Tehuantepec had
begun to furnish the most expeditions
carriage of goods from the Atlantic
ports to local merchants. The general
sentiment of the meeting was that the
fear of yellow fever was not a suffi-
Gent reason for impairing the great
commercial benefits to this port which
had all along been anticipated of the
Tehuantepec route. Nevertheless the
association referred the matter to a
committee to obtain more information.
GENERAL ITEMS.
Former Secretary A. L. c. Atkinson,
while on Maui last week, was most
favorabiy impressed with the provi-
sion of cottages on plots of land being
made for sugar plantation laborers.
He also noted with much qualification
the development of the wine-growing,
rubber and sugar industries on the
island. q
In year or two large new factory
will be erected on Maui by the Haiku
Fruit and Packing Co. to meet the
increased demands of the neighboring
planters.
Besides the investments in Hawai-
ian rubber plantations, several local
people have capital invested in rub
in Mexico and the Orient.
Interest in the rubber industry in the
Straits Settlements is so great here
that the Waterhouse Co. in the Judd
building, has arranged to receive the
reports of the Singapore Stock Ex-
change giving quotations on the shares
dealt in there.
Governor Frear has approved the
location of the spur track from the
Oahu railway to the lime pits being
developed in Waianae district. This
Is a new enterprise under a charter.
1t is proposed by the Rapid Transit
Co. to give through fifteen-nninute
service on the Lfliha-Waialae line. in
stead of a ten-minute service west Of
Nuuanu stream and a twenty-nninute |
service east of there as at present. |
An extension of the King street line |
west to pass the main entrance of !
Fort Shafter at Kahauiki is also pro- |
posed.

slender beautiful young woman, as
she stripped down her front steps to

one Of those miserable, wretched wo-
men has come. And I am worn to the
bone, and my poor legs totter with
I moving all the furniture out of my
/; bed room so that we might have at
\ least three roms for this wretched
8 thing-this so-called bazaar. And
] have decorated all three rooms entire
ly by myself, besides tieing bow in
5 the pigs tail and making him fit to
be seen. Oh, Lordy, how worn out
do feel! But let me tell you about it,
Mr. Barron, for you were in Augusta
and didn't know about this guild

st. Chrysostom Guild are a mean, sell

ing it was only enc week before
Chrlstmas-as we still owed twenty
five|dollars on the new aisle carpet
we decided to have a bazaar out of
nothing-three quarts of dirty oysters
to be paid for out of the proceeds.
And when the question was asked at
whose house we should have it there
sat all the wretched women-even Mrs
Kate Cranston, with that great big,
old, cold, spraddling house within fiji
ty yards Of the public square-and
said not word. There they sat stiff
and silent as mummies. Most Of them
are mummies. So finally, although I
a.. am. out here in the suburbs a mile
from the public square, + offered my
poor little cottage. And all those wo-
men who live SO near the church and
the Court House jumped at it. The
selfish creatures! And it was agreed
that two women should give salt and
pepper, and two butter, and two
crackers, and two milk, for the oys-
ters. And Mrs. Thomas and the Miss
Beltons were to give oranges and CO.
coanuts for that dangerous muck that
is commonly called ambrosia; and
Mrs. Gunton was to give cream cake
and Mrs. Stratton a noisome ehoco-
late cake; and Mrs. Carswell was to
give coffee and cream-blue John
and Miss Collier was to give livid
