Daughters of Hawaii Will Place
Commemorative Tablet
at the Pail.

A delightful reunion of the Daugh.
ters OF Hawaii was held Friday even
ing at the residence of Mrs. Whine on
Beretania avenue. 1t being the ami
versary meeting, guests were present
and contributed not little to the en-.
1oyment of the occasion. Mrs. Mills

only just arrived, received warm
welcome from old pupils and friends

battle of the pail, and the victory of

brief statement of the funds of the
society was also presented by the
treasurer, Mrs. Jones, and it was voted
that the committee proceed with the
tablet to its completion if q
suitable spot can be acquired, bids fair

Following this item of business a
most valuable paper was read by Joseph
Emerson, on a legend of the 18th cen

to Hawaiian folklore A guest of the
evening, James Wilder, followed with
a few facetious remarks. He promised
a paper on the famous Kuhina Mrs. XII

daughter were named.
A most interesting paper, prepared
by the historian, Miss Anna M. Paris,

ELbOWING Us

How about our Oriental commerce."
| asked reporter of James j. Hill the
/ other day 1--WE haven't any," was
Mr. Hills reply. Like other intensely
cut to the truth, having in mind a
| commerce comparable with that of
| Great Britain for example, and not a
| mere. rivulet of trade such as that
| which trickles from the Pacific Coast
| ports of the United States.
1.-The commerce of the Orient is a
| rich, mouth-filling phrase, and when
orators have nothing better to say it is
easy to work up passing enthusiasm
with a picture of big-bellied argosies
whitening the Pacific and drawing the
white and yellow millions together in
exchanges of quaint and costly mer-
chandise. But the picture does not
come true very fast. Americans them
selves are to blame, probably. for the
lack of a big Oriental commerce. Their
home market is so much bigger and so
much more accessible and so much
more profitable that it is not strange
that they should give long-distance
Chinese business the go-by while de-
veloping business with white men
whose needs are understood and who
are the best spenders in the world.
ryS% a. hir,f,1 a.
for the whiting away of the small
commerce that has been enjoyed by
Americans in the Orient. They are
cutting down imports into Japan and,
at the same time, are increasing their
exports to China at the expense of the
United States. The wheat fields of
Manchuria are being titled and soon
Manchurian flour will displace the CAL
ifornia article. Now comes the news
that japanese lumbermen are at work
in the Manchurian forests and are be-
ginning to supply not only Japan, but
China, with lumber. Japan's imports
of lumber from the United States were
less by several million feet in 1906 than
in 1906 and Pacific Coast iumbermen
have said good-by to that market. They
are now facing the loss of the Chinese
market, which called for 102, 100000 feet
last year. An authority is quoted in
the Consular reports as stating that
five years hence the American ship
ments of lumber to the Chinese empire
may be limited to general cargo car
riers, as is true of Japan today"
SO. in wholly and partly raw ma
terials. as in manufactures, Japan is
rapidly elbowing the United states out
of Asia.-Washington Post.

Captains Of tramp steamers coming
here complain of the inhospitality of
the town. They say that there are no
clubs here to which they are invited
and that unless they have friends here
and as a rule they haven't, there is no
chance for them to become acquainted
with people worth knowing. In the
agents offices they are made to feel
that business alone countenances
their presence. When business has
been transacted they are left to shift
for themselves as far as social diver
sion is concerned The skipper of a

To Build Large Destroyers.

10 bulld Large Destroyers.
Plans and specifications have re-
Gently been completed by the navy de-
partment for five new torpedo boat de-
stroyers authorized by the last con-
gress. These new torpedo boat de-
stroyers will be Of about 2S knots
speed and 700 tons displacement. The
plans call for vessels considerably
larger than those of similar type now
in service. The largest OF the pres.
ent destroyers displaces but 433 tons,
and is 24S feet long. Bidders will be
given the privilege of submitting est-
mates on boats with oil burning ap-
paratus for generating steam, recip-
rocating and turbine steam engines,
and internal combustion engines.
These items were never before in.
cluded in bids for boats of this class,
but owing to the successful results
from oil burning engines 1t is prob
able that within the near future all the
new vessels will be equipped with
such apparatus. Great care is being
taken by the navy department to
send out circulars and other informa-
ton concerning destroyers and new
battleships only to such concerns as
have the facilities for filling contracts
for the vessels If awarded to them.
This secrecy. says Technical World
Magazine, is in accordance with Sec.
rotary Metcalfs recent orders and is
maintained for the purpose of prevent
ing detailed information of new naval
construction falling into the hands
of foreign governments.
