DAZZLING VIVID coLoRs

London Special: The extent to which
vivid colors are combined in voman's
dress is almost unbelievable. There is, in
deed, n perfect craze for contrasts OF dar-
ing, even violent. description. and hardly
an eyebrow was raised when a dark-haired
lady made her appearance at the Ascot
races in q directoire coat of emerald green
taffcta worn over a cling!ng robe of ivory
crochet lace.
The hat accompanying this costume was
probably the largest yet displayed out Of
Paris, and its wide, high crown was en-
circled by an enormous ostrich feather
in the same vivid green. while a tall green
sunshade was carried. Another hand
some racegoer had the courage to wear q
Rose du Barri coat in satin charmeuse
with a dress Of chalk white Shantung. The
effect was really rather good. and the pink
hat, lined with white and masscd with
roses In all possible shades of red. unde-
nfably becoming.

WALTZ Always IN FASHION,:

Dances may corne and dances may go.
but the waltz. which this year attaino
it's centenary, never loses its popularity.
1t is the most graceful dance left to
us now that h days OF the minuet
are over, and 1t has inspired some of
the most delightful strains fl the world
of melody. Where every other dance
nowadays is a waltz it is necessary to
accomplish this really well, and the girl
who gains a reputation as a graceful

Of "wallfowerdom" If we may coin such
a word.

LOVES THREADS OF GOLD.


In the night she told a story.
In the night n all night through,
While the moon was iii her glory,
And the branches dropped with dew.
Twas my l.fe she told, and round it
Rose the Years as from a deep:
In the worlds great heart she found il
Graded like a child asleep.
In the night ] saw her weaving
BY the misty moonbeam cold,
All the weft her shuttle cleaNing
With a sacred thread OF gold.
All: she wept me tears of sorrow,
LullinS tears SO mystic sweet:
Then she wove my last tomorrow,
And her web lay at my feet.
OF my life she made the story:
nus weep-so soon twas told!
your name did lend 1t glory.
And your love it's thread of gold.

Cream Of Clam.

A cream Of clam soup, though more
expensive. is even more delicious. The
same ingredients are used with the ad-
dition of a pint of cream. The clans
are washed and placed in a saucepan
to simmer for a few minutes. The liq-
uor is then drained off and the clans
are pounded in a mortar through a
course PURGE sieve. Proceed as direct-
ed in the foregoing recipe, adding the
cream when the pounded CLANS and
their liquor is added. Serve very hot
with croutons.

MANY USES FOR THE
M'kINLEy FUND CASH

! number of plans for the use OF the
fund in the hands of the Mckinley
Memorial committee VIII be discussed
this afternoon at the meeting called
for three o'clock in the directors room
OF the Bank of Hawaii. One of the
uses to which it will De suggested the
fund be put will be the clearing of
and preparing of the Mckinley park.

the county or the Territory will agree
TO take the park over and maintain it.
This matter has already been present.
ed 10 the authorities, the Territory
passing it up to the county as within
its jurisdiction. Chairman Hustace, Of
the Board of Supervisors, is authority
for the statement that the matter is
to be taken up very shortly by the
Supervisors to see if ways and means
can be provided. 1t is understood that
this plan, if it can be carried out, is
the one desired by the committee.
The representatives of the Kilohana
Art League will be on hand at the
meeting to present the petition, ad-
dressed TO the Governor and others in
authority, asking that the old market
be retained as a public building, an
indoor park and a place where public
meetings can be held. The Art League
representative will urge the carrying
out OF their proposition that the Nc
Kinley fund be used to erect a Nc
Kinley Memorial arch as an entrance
for the building. Mrs. W. VI. Grham,
who is actively representing the Art
League in the matter, has been as
sured by Governor Frear that the
building will not be destroyed and that
If the necessary funds are forthcoming
arrangements can no doubt be made
TO transform the structure into such a
building as the League desires.
The matter of building stadium
with the fund will be brought up, while
yet another plan will be suggested, the
particulars of which will not be made
public until at the meeting itself This
plan has been confided to some of the
members of the committee and is said
to meet with favor.
Providing no assurances can be Civ
en- that the park idea can be carried
out, it seems rather probable that the
dark horse proposition will take the
money

CAPT. DWELL
ON PEARL HARBOR

Captain Orwell. seen by . reporter
yesterday. gave out some interesting
data regarding Pearl Harbor esti-
mates. He said in part:
1T is estimated that on the basis
of a channel 500 feet wide and S. feet
in depth. there would have to be re-
moved 2.2Ss,7O5 cubic yards of compar-
atively soft material and l,s4S,1se cubic
yards of hard material.
The figures on the basis of chan
mel only so feet in depth were as fol-
lows: 1.7Ss.sss cubic yards of COM
paratively soft material and $50. os7
cubic yards of hard material to be
removed.
1t will be seen that there is a great
difference between the amounts of ma
terial which it will be necessary to
remove in the case of the IS and the
S0-foot depth basis.
An idea of the cost which will be
involved in the excavation of the ma
terial mentioned above may be formed
from the figures which the department
has been paying for the excavations in
Honolulu harbor. The sum of 20 cents
per square yard was paid for the re-
movaf of soft material in the harbor.
but in this case the material was silt.
while in Pearl Harbor il will consist
of loose coral. sand. etc.
While the cost for the removal of
soft material will thus probably be
greater in the case of Pearl Harbor
than il has been in the Honolulu
operations. it is probable that the
cost for the removal of hard material
Will be smaller. 1t is costing the de-
partment g. cents a cubic yard under
the contract under which the harbor
work is being done at present. but it
is believed that this. figure is rather
high"
Some time next month Captain OF
well will 60 TO Kahului TO have a pub
lie hearing of the Maui people to as
certain their views regarding the
proposed Improvements in Kahul6
harbor.
