D. Mead of the Planters Association

lulu this morning? Did they see the
| coming fleet of United States cruisers
in the distance? Did they see a mir
age? Or did they just "see things?'
What did they see? That is the
question that is worrying them. Sec
rotary Mott-Smith tells the story. He
Gays that early this morning he and
Mr.. Mead were coming down town in
an automobile. When they reached
The top of the Kaimuki hill they
looked off over the sea in the direction
Of Waianae and Barber's Point, and
they saw out at sea what appeared to
be three white vessels approaching
Honolulu. The vessels looked like
war ships and they at once concluded
that it was the cruiser fleet arriving
ahead of time.
The vessels were prefectly distinct,
Mr.. Mott-Smith says, and neither he
I.or Mr.. Mead had the least doubt rs
to what they saw. The apparitions
were well out to sea, SO there is no
possibility of their having been de-
ceived by white lines of breakers.
Yet no vessels of any kind, with the
exception of the Inter-Island steamer
Claudine, have reached Honolulu or
been reported. After the Secretary
reached his Office, Diamond Head
Charlie was called up on the phone
and asked about the approaching YES
sells. He replied that there were none,
that there was nothing in sight.
And now the Secretary and his COM
panion are wondering what 1t was
hey did see. Their conduct, they say,
was exemplary last night and there
was no reason for their seeing things
which did not exist.
The theory has been advanced that
what they really saw was mirage OF
the approaching cruiser squadron,
which is now probably about two or
three days out at sea. II this explana-
tion be accepted the fourth vessel OF
the feet must have dropped behind or
been in such position that her image
could not be reflected over several
miles of water
1t will be interesting to learn, on
the arrival of the fleet, whether the
vessels were this morning In the for
nation seen by Mott-smith and Mead.
Both gentlemen are deyoutly praying
that such will be found to be the case.
II would prove decided relief,

stimulus of Norfolk's B example. The Library, the Gymnasium, the University Club, the Boys Oratorical Contest, the wealth of music, choral and orchestral, enjoyed by the whole vicinage, all sprang out of an original love for the town of Norfolk.
 Yet when it began in simple way, Norfolk, now thriving community, was quiet little town of about regi- ment and a half, that had been declining in population for decades, and was near ly 300 short of the census of 1860. Town loyalty and public spirit in other words, do not depend on the size of the town, nor the thrift of the town. Indeed, a small town is more sure of enjoying it than a larger one. For man finds it easy to make darling of his village, but it is hard to put your arms around a city.

HEARING ON REMOVAL
OF THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS

Takes Place in Hartford to-day-Ob-
 jections to the Change will Probably
 be Made by Prominent Residents of
 Falls Village.
 This afternoon at two o'clock, in the Supreme Court room in the Capitol at Hartford, hearing will be held on the bill providing for terms of the Court of Common Pleas to be held at North Ca- naan instead of Falls Village or in the town of Canaan.
 Notices of the hearing have been sent to the various lawyers who have occasion to appear in this court, and it is expected that large representation of the Litch- field county bar will be present to make arguments, pro and con. We under stand that there is considerable oppo- sition to the removal of the court, and that some of the prominent residents of Falls Village will be represented by counsel at the hearing. AS before stated, the court if removed to Canaan, will be held in room on the second floor of the Fuller building on Railroad street. Those who favor the change advance the argument that Canaan is more desira- ble location for the court because of its superior railroad facilities.
