plaee In the Nuuanu cemetery yester-
dav afternoon with the beautiful SER
vices of the Masonic lodge. In attend
ance at the funeral of their brother,
who had died In far off Vladivostok'

others, including many residents OF the
city and a number who had worked
with him when he managed rhe Hono-
IuIu plantation, together with orien-
tails. representing the japanese ana
Chinese OF that plantation, paid their
last respects to the man for whom gen.
eral esteem and affection had been felt
Mrs. Low, the widow. was accompa-
MED BIZ Mrs. Matson, the sister Of the
deceased, and Mr.. and Mrs. George
Ross.
Services were held at the Masonic
Temple. after which the lodge mem
bers and the c0ncourse Of friends es-
corted the body to the grave. The
Temple services were impressive as
read by Master Frank E. Thompson

Kindly Light" and Rock Of Ages"
were sung By a quartet composed OF
Mesdames weight and Crook and
Messrs. Livingston and Wall.
The floral tokens about the bier

these was a broken pillar OF white
asterg, sent by the Honolulu plsnta-
ton. a number OF beautiful floral en-
blems from the different branches OF
the Masonic order and a wreath from
the Pacific Commercial Company Pf
vladivostok. This piece from the Far
East to the sight could not be dis
tinguished from flowers, but when laid
upon the floor gave forth a ring that
revealed an artificial texture. II was
wondrously ingenious and must have
been an expensive tribute. ". O.

LUCRE Is
Nd MISNOMER
Dirt That Comes Out in the
Wash of Coin at the
Police Station.

Plenty of tainted money comes IN
over the counter of the police reeeiv-
ing station, but as much Of the taint
as soap, water and dlsinfectant viii
remove gets off of it before it goes in
the big safe. This money is, for. the
most part, cash bail put UP to secure
the release for the time being of Of
tenders against the majesty of the law,
although some small part-sundry
nickels, dimes and two-bit pieces-is4
the yield Of quick grabs for evidence
during gambling raids. Just how very
dirty these coins are. though probably
not more so than that handled by ev-
cry shop and bank in the city, can be
seen by anyone curious enough to
stand around the receiving station and
watch a. batch of it going through the
wash.
Some time ago sheriff Iaukea issued
orders that all coins should be washed
and disinfected before being passed out
of the station and this order is being
strictly carried out. Just as soon as
a prisoner is brought in and his
pockets turned inside out in the search
that is always made, his money, + he
has any, is dumped into basin con-
tanning clean water and liberal sup
ply of soap and carbolie acid and
swished around If there be any guam
tity of coin the water usually@turns a
dirty brown color. which changes to
black as the microbes and CRIME let
loose of the metal and swim away. The
coins may have seemed bright before
the bath, but from the look of the
dirty water after it the apparent
brightness was an optical illusion.
Yesterday was a regular laundry
day around the station, several hun
dred dollars in gold coin being
scrubbed, dried, mangled and pressed
In the morning a Chinaman was
brought in and eleven big twenty dol
lar gold pieces. wrapped tightly in
dirty handkerchief, came TO light when
he was frisked. These clinked beauti-
fully as the wash basin was rocked
and the coins came out weighing less
the tare of CRIME. Shortly afterward
two other Chinks passed down to the
dungeons, yielding up a bunch of coin
while on their heels came other Chinks
ready to bail them out. As the bail
had been fixed at $3.50 apiece and il
was promptly produced, the little old
basin worked overtime to get the coins
fit TO associate with their clean broth
ers and sisters in the safe.
Filthy lucre is no misnomer and all
who watch through one washing at
the police station VIII keep their
money out of their mouths.

Hours in Preparation for Annual
inspection.

After a half hour for Iunch-army

out any officers mess-the companies
were drilled each by its own captain
and under supervision of the regimen
tai officers. Colonel Johnson watched
the work of CO. B, Colonel Ziegler that
of Co. T, Lieutenant-Colonel Coynel
that of Co. z. and Major Riley that
Of Co. G. The signal Corps was drill
ed at the same time by Lieutenant An

dividual companies were put through
the complete company movements,
platoon movements, extended order,
advance and rear guard and normal
attack, the drill keeping up without a
stop until two o'clock, when the cars
for town were taken.
The drill proved to be of great bene-
ft both to the men and the officers.

much good has been realized, indeed,
that the drill will be repeated next

Gaugine the Rivers. = = !.

To return again to the rivers and
harbors, we need all the time. train
ed body-as efficient at least as the
Interstate Commerce Commission-to
consider all the time the whole prob
lem of waterway improvement, inland
and seaboard, and to view it as unit.
This commission needs to consider
our internal and external trade, plat
the rivers according to their eventual
national utility, and plan for their sys-
tematic development, in order at the
earliest possible moment to attain the
use of them 1t must adopt standards.
so that rivers of A-class, for example,
having, let us say, three-foot draft,
will have lock chambers all of Aisle,
and that on B-class rivers, which may
include the four-foot, lower reaches
of the A-class, there will be the same 4,
size>or larger locks, all B,standard, so
that in ascending or descending the
streams the A-class vessels may be
certain that wherever they go there
will be no obstruction between their
home port and any other .A-class
port This matter of gauge is as vital

ton. It is SO recognized abroad,

THE NEW HREEcHEs BUOY.
II Is Fitted With Signal Lights and
Can BE Used AZ NIGHT as in the Day.

It Is Fitted With Signal Lights and
Can BE Used at Night as in the Day.
After having been in use for over
century without Improvement or
change, the breaches. buoy used by or
ganized life saving crews has been
! improved by a device that has just
been adopted by the United States
Life Saving. Service. The main diff
ficulty with the breeches buoy as here
tofore constructed has been that at
night when it left the shore no one
knew definitely where it was, whether
1t had reached the wrecked ship ornot
or whether any one had got in unless
the mariners had lights on the yes
sci.
John W. Dalton of Gloucester, knows
to mariners all along the Massachu-
sets coast, is the inventor of the der
vices. The Improvement in question,
comprises, speaking in general terms,
small case mounted on an inflated
rubber cushion and surrounded by
four small hollow posts which are al
fixed to the rubber cushion buoy and
on top to a square steel spreader
In the case is a storage battery that
operates a set of lamps One light,
green one, shows toward the ship
wreck when the device is started out
to the vessel; the other light, while
one, shows down through the rubber
cushion into the hreches,a enabling the
shipwrecked people to sac how to get
into tht apparatus. Another white
light shows toward the shore until
the breeehes buoy is occupied, when
it automatically turns to bright red.
going back to white again when the
passenger is landed.
Under the old system when the
breaches buoy was sent out to wreck
it was often hauled back to the shore
by the life-savers before it had reached
it's destination. Now the position OF
the breeches buoy will always be
known to those on shore and on the
wreck The green light moving tow
ard the vessel mutely tells the ship
wrecked passengers that help is at
hand and encourages them to hold on
until the buoy reaches them. AS soon
as one of the imperllled mariners
gets into the breches the red light
signals to those on land to haul the
passenger ashore. - s-@.- ~
The rubber cushion prevents the oc-
cupant below from, being injured by
the block striking him while being
dragged through the surf. Numbers
of persons have been severely injured
while being saved from wreck by
the big iron traveller block as the
vessel lurched back and forth. From

indian Farmers PIant Treee.

A treeplanting revivalfs in progress
in southern Indiana, where many farm,
ers are utilizing waste tracts of land
for the growing Of such trees as black
locusts, hardy catalpas and other fast
growing varieties. The immediate
cause Of this movement Is the scarcity
of timber for fence posts. 1t is said
that land which can be bought at from
six to ten dollars an acre will yield a
good crop OF black locusts in about
ten or twelve years, the product of
which is estimated to be worth from
$3.50 to $500 an acre The forest ser.

Sunday School Lessons for the World.
A power greater than that Of kings
seems to have been welded by the
little group Of thoughtful men who
gathered at the Fenway residence Of
w. NJ Hartshorn to select the lessons
for the Sunday schools of the world.
Every year they gather to make this
choice, and when al decision has been
reached the lessons are handed out
TO the printers and BY them literally
scattered over the planet. The Word
thus goes forth not in one but in
scores of languages. Europe and
Africa, East and West, North and
South, get these helps to religious
study in the yernacular. There is a
supply for Hawaii, Japan and the
islands Of the sea- For India alone
forty dialects have to be provided for.
