HURRICANE AND
WRECK At SEA
Captain JosseIyn Spins a Yarn
of One of His Stirring
Adventures.

''If there had been one woman among
those who put off in boats from the
sinking Eclipse, there would have been
better discipline among the men and
everything would have gone straight, .
said Captain Josselyn of the bark Nu-
uanu in the course of his address be-

stranger can make his entry.
The cottages built some time ago at
Lake Lanuto are still open free OF
charge to whosoever may be tempted
to take a few days holiday in this
exhilarating atmosphere, 5000 feet
above the beach. The stock of fish in
the lake has increased, and few
ducks are often procurable, while pig
sticking and pigeon-shooting are in
season most of the year. At Malolelei
a cottage has been erected by private
enterprise, where one may hire either
single room, or the whole place, be-
ing supplied with all cooking appara-
tus, cutlery, crockery, and general fur
niture at very moderate charge, while
milk, vegetables, and farm supplies are
to be had daily, at moderate rates

2500 feet, and walk of 80 minutes
places the sojourner at the apex of
Upolu, where he may view the ocean
to the southward, and note the curves
and bends of the coasts and the inter
mitting reefs; or, looking north and
west, he may desery a scene as in
spring and beautiful as the whole wide
world could produce. In the distance
looms up Savaii, from one of whose
cones there rises an ominous cloud of
smoke, denoting volcanic action, while
far distant from this rises cloud on
cloud, seeming to come out of mother
ocean, as indeed they do, for these are
formed by floods of liquid lava, which
pour over the cliffs directly into the
ocean, filing up its bed and extending
the island. One is quite appalled, and
mystifed when he considers that this
great discharge goes on with little in
terruption day by day, and that the
amount of molten material that flows
into the sea never runs under 5000 tons.

SLOW TRANSIT
STILL PROSPECT
Company Refuses to Improve
Street Car Schedule to
kaimuki.

Fifty Rapid Transit enthusiasts from
Waialae, Kaimuki and the region of
Palolo gathered at the Government
nursery last night to consider the mat
ter of a better street car service to
the Kaimuki district.
Albion F. Clark presided and D. w.
Anderson acted as secretary.
w. NJ. Minton, chairman of a com
mittee appointed to wait oh> the Gov
ernor and the R. T. s. L. Co. reported.
He stated that the company had turn
ed down the request for 1920 minute
schedule. If a hundred more families
resided in the district the company
might see its way clear to make the
change asked for. AT present nothing
could be done.
The committee had asked Governor
Frear not to signify his approval of the
present twenty-minute Waialae-Aala
park service, as requested by the com
pany, until they had had chance to
present facts and figures. The Gov
ernor had promised to hold the matter

CHINESE EDITOR
UNDER ARREST

Prosecuted.

Lo Sun, the editor of a Chinese daily
newspaper here, was arrested yesterday
under the Chinese Exclusion Act. He
is charged with being unlawfully in
the country. u s. Commissioner F. L.
Hatch held him to answer in $4,000
bail.
Antoine Manuel, messenger of the
United States District Court, had the
distinction of arresting Editor Lo Sun,
having previously been sworn in as a
special deputy marshal. Marshal Hen
dry and Deputies Winter and Bruins
have simply been overwhelmed with
warrants to serve for the past two
or three weeks on the four largest is
hands of the group. Hence the en-
hstment of Manuel for special duty in
that line

The yarn the skipper spun smacked

four days, was begun on Friday, No

bark sailing deep laden with rice for
Singapore. The vessel lay a mile off
shore to load from the junks, and on
the eve of sailing the captains wife,
announced that for the first time she

WHAT SAMOA IS TRYING TO
DO TO SATISFY TOURISTS

APIA, Jan. 15.-Under the inspira-
tion of Governor Self, society has
been formed in Apia to beautify the
town, and to provide various convent
enees for the residents and for visitors.
Vehieular traffic is to be improved
and regulated. The cry of the tourist
that he is being robbed by exorbitant
cabmen, guides, and takers has been
heard, and the people of Apia are
about to make such reforms as will
prove. very satisfactory to themselves
as well as those who come to this lit
tie town with the idea of passing a
few pleasant days or weeks.
Various matters have been referred
to the different committees, who will
act with the government. Defects in
roads, fences, walls, and buildings will
be rectifed as fast as possible, and
bshade trees, seats, watering troughs,
d-.zking fountains, etc., viii be pro-
vided. Though this committee will
