1t was a mellow day for such ser
mon. The year was fulfilling all of
the promises made in early spring. In
the woods there was blaze of red, the
ripe juices of autumn. and in the air
there was that melancholy sweetness
that makes a man think, that makes
him look upon his neighbor as his
brother. On bench not far from the
pulpit old Lin Jucklin sat, determined
to surrender himself to the influences
of the sermon. During the week just
ended human nature had not been
overstrong in him. He had told one
man that the only truth about him
was the truth that he was liar. had
snapped horses with a chicken ped
dler and was glad now that he had
not succeeded in overtaking him aft
terward he had trapped a few quails
out of season, but had sent the most
Of them to the sick--had done a few 9th
er things not strictly in line, such as
hating for a few moments at livery
stable to see two dogs fight; but now
as he sat ready to listen to the word
he knew that down in his heart he
hated no man.
The old minister arose and gave out
the hymn, militant verses written by
some ancient fighter. and then looked
with a scowl at the empty benches at
the rear end of the room. Old Dock
Hency cleared his throat and settled
himself down and Sister Buckworth,
repository of every neighborhood scan
dial for more than two generations,
smacked her mouth, for she felt that
this was to be an occasion for what
the rude slangists called hot stun"
And it was. The preacher tiptoed in
his wrath against the world. Never
before had that broad boulevard lead
ing to destruction been so frightfully
crowded It did not seem that there
was a possible show for anyone to be
saved. And it was not a figurative
hell that the preacher painted. but
great pit roaring with flames. Into
the house he so strongly brought the
smell of sulphur that a boy sneezed,

EX-GOVERNOR WALLER.
Says Under No Circumstance WIIf
 He Run For Office Again.

It has been suggested that Hon. Thomas NJ. Waller of New London might be the next Democratic nomi- nee for the governorship. and natur- ally the popular ex-governor's host of friends are interested in the sug- gestion.
 When asked at his home in New London this week what he thought about 1t, Ex-Governor Waller laugh ed and said that there was not the least bit of plausibility in suggest ing his name.
 He said that he appreciated the freindliness and courtesy of putting forward his name among the possi- bilities. but that he would not ac- cept the nomination, were it offered him. under any conceivable circum- stances.
 While I am not out of politics." he said, T am out of office holding. I shall never consent 10 have my name used as candidate for any office.

MARINE

The United States Army transport
Sherman sailed for Manila, via Guam.
last night promptly at o'clock, Ieav-
ing the Naval dock with her upper
deck lined with the prettiest crowd Of
girls which has ever passed through
here on transport. Apparently there
we're about three women in the first
cabin to every officer.
For nearly two hours before the
transport sailed Berger's band gave
concert on board. The Hawaiian boys
we're seated on the upper deck and
both the music of the Dand and vocal
selections by its members, proved very
pleasing to the army people. During
he last hour the band of the Four
tenth Infantry played on the wharf,
filling in the time when the local play
ers were not in action.
In response TO a cablegram from San
Francisco, Chief Taylor and his men
searched the Sherman thoroughly for
a highwayman from that city, who
was supposed to be on board. All the
men from the vessel were ordered on
the dock while the search took place
but no trace of the criminal could be
found. It is not thought that he is
on board but should he be, ne has
small chance, as Simmons, known
through the West as the Cowboy De-
tective'' is there and has his descrip-
ton simmons was one of the men
whe worked with William j. Burns in
The uncovering of the graft in SAN
Francisco and is now on his way to
Manila, where he will take a position
in the secret service.
Five stowaways were sent ashore
from the sherman just before she left.
Among them was one man who had
served in the army, and had also been
a steward on one of the transports.
His wife and family are in Manila
and he was DESTROYS of reaching them
but had no money. Captain Babcock
was anxious to take him along but
could make no exception to the rules.
The stowaway pest on the transports
has become so bad that strenuous
measures will be taken from now on.
Captain Babcock states that anyone of
this description caught on the Sherman
will be placed in irons in solitary con-
ffnement and fed on bread and water,
till the end of the voyage. If going
to the Coast they will have to be re-
leased on reaching San Francisco, but
if going to Manila, they will be kept
on board and brought back to this city.

now practically finished the work and
their dredge has been brought back
to this city where it has started work
on the government contract in the
harbor here.
Captain John r.. Parker has been In
charge of the dredging work and to
his efforts. in a great extent, the rapid
completion of work is due. The big
suction dredge has kept at work day
and night. and the masses of sand and
soft coral which it has brought up
have formed the base of the entlre
inner portion of the breakwater.
J. n. S. Williams, of the Kahului
railroad has been in active charge OF
eratfons, assisted by a corp of young
engineers, and he has rushed the work
through very rapidly. His office is
located within a stones throw OF the
breakwater and daily inspection OF
the work which has been accomplished
has been one of the duties which ne
has carefully performed.
The breakwater itself is divided into
two sections. The first or inner sec
ton starts about five hundred yards
from the Railroad wharf and is over
five hundred feet in width where It
leaves the shore. This section extends
nearly loco feet out. narrowing down
very slightly to a point where the sec
ond section begins. The structure IS
so large that it appears to be Simply
a, long point of land. It was formed
by planting huge boilers, which mas
been used at the Puunene mill till their
usefulness there was exhausted, lar
out in the water. Then stones were
dumped in around them till finally
strong wall was built. This was done
all along the outer edge till small lake
or lagoon of shallow water was form
ed. Into this the big suction dredge
commenced TO discharge its masses OIL
coral.
Al first there was nothing but lay
er of mush. but. as the water leaked
out. and left the dry coral, structure
as solid and compact as dry land was
formed. Against this the ocean waves
which come in with terrific force waste
themselves without doing harm.
Then the more difficult part of the
work was commenced. This consisted
in the building further out. Waves
ten and twelve feet high are cons}t err
ed small at the point where the break
water is built and to contend against
such power as they possess, was a job
which required not only care, but an
immense amount Of labor. Again the
big boilers came into play. Over thir-
~ feet in length and perhaps eight
feet in diameter, they made an elegant
bed on which to build railroad
track was built to the end of the struc-
ture and first one Of these big masses
Of iron would be taken out and

THE KAHULUl
BREAKWATER
Continued from Page One,

of freighters no longer dislike to take
their vessels. The sugar from the Pu-
unene mill. the largest mill in the
world, is all shipped from Kahului and
with this enormous output it was
found necessary TO make such i'm
provements as would allow easier and
cheaper handling of freight.
At first it was proposed to built the
breakwater and to dredge the harbor
to such an extent that the big Amer
ican-Hawaiian vessels might ccme
longside of the wharYes, but when the
cost of such work became apparent, 1t
was decided that it was not practic-
able to follow out this plan. Their it
was decided that the breakwater
should be built out far enough to make
safe anchorage for vessels and to
handle the cargoes by means Of
lighters.
The contract for the dredging was
awarded to the Hawaiian Dredging
company OF. Honolulu. and they have
