Fortuna facet fdtuis'' should be made the Of
fetal motto Of New York City after superfn-
tendent Martin, telegraph chief OF the Fire De-
partment has finished his testimony about the
condition Of local fire alarm wires. AS witness
before the Commissioners Of Accounts Mr. Mar
tin has already cited score of facts to snow
that large sections Of the alarm box system
might be rendered useless at any moment by
the simplest accident. If we accept without dis
count Mr. Martins direct statement that the
whole empire of business and palatial homes
south of 59th street might suddenly be bereft
of every alarm box result of absurdly
poor wiring it is hard to resist the CONCLUSION
that Manhattan is the beloved Of the gods

only one who will retain his official

WHERE TO SEE
THE BIC FLEET
Confined from Page one)

From the region of the lighthouse on
the southern slope of Leahi, alias Dia-
mond Head, is the next best place to
see the fleet as it arranges itself to
arrive OFF the harbor, or two-thirds of
it, for one squadron splits out off Molo-
kai and steams for the lee of Maui, to
get under Lahaina to coal.
You can swarm up Leah or Diamond

to hotel refreshmentaries, is another,
and perhaps the third, favorable spot

.PEARY'S START
FOR NORTH POLE

NEW YORK. July 5,-Robert e.
Peary starts tomorrow on his ninth
trip to the North Pole. His ship,
named the Roosevelt, will go from here
to Oyster Bay to allow President
Roosevelt to make an inspection of
her. Mrs. Peary will not accompany
her husband on this voyage. Although
enough provisions to last three years
will be taken, Peary says he expects
to return in fifteen months. He is
confident he will plant the Stars and
Stripes nearer the Pole than any other
explorer has ever done, as all obstacles
met in former voyages have been pro-
vided for and will be overcome, he
believes.
His party includes Professor Ross
Marvin of Cornell, and other men OF
technical training and scientific abil-
ity. A large part of the equipment
will be taken aboard at Sydney, Nova
Scotia.

On Punchbowl is a stin another
point of vantage, although the feet.
from there, will not be seen until It
rounds Diamond Head.
Best of all, of course, is to get up
on Olympus or Tantalus, but such
heights are for the leisure few who
have nothing else to do or for the
workers who have worked SO hard
and made so much money for their
employers that they can afford to take
or can command holiday of sufficient
duration to ascend the pinnacles of the
isle and get what will be almost a
bird's-eye view of the warships of the
greatest nation on the outside Of the
earth
From the clock-tower of the Judi
ciary building, from the roof of the
Executive edifice, from the roof of the
Alexander Young Hotel and from the
rooms of the McCandless, the STAN
genwald and the Judd buildings most
splendid view of the approaching and
evoluting feet will be obtained
incidentally one of the best possible
close-range views will be from the
decks of the Inter-Island steamers
Mauna Loa, Kinau and Claudine which
will tomorrow, as soon as the lookout
notifies the town of the approach OF
the armada, go out to meet the fleet
and, before seven of the boats drop
their mud-hooks of port, will circle
the bunch for inspection, the reception
committee and the band being aboard
the Mauna Loa, Young Bros, too
will take out parties.
Folks out Waialae way and at Niu

How many of the so-called American
flags being displayed about Honolulu

Humphreys started to decorate his
home with flags, and suddenly no
ticed that there were As stars on

each state. Humphreys took down
