IN LITTLEOLD NEW YORK
Saome Dance is Craze of One Set
formers Having Merry Time With "Merry Widows" and
Sheath Skirt. Sleeping Baby Stops Traffic Broadway.

NEW YORK, August 10.-The
Salome craze has hit Gotham and
so far the police have not interfered.
The leading roof garden shows are
Offering SaIome dancers as their star
attractions for the summer months,
and although the ministry is united
in condemning the performance the
dance still goes on and will probably
continue until Anthony COmstOck
and his vice squad" get on to their
job again in the cool autumn days.
At Hammerstein's theatre Gertrude
Hoffman initiates Maude Allan, who
has been the European sensation in
the SalOme dance, and has proved
such a drawing card that the other
Broadway shows are falling over
themselves to get Salome dancers.
While you can go to your Bible for
the facts of this dance the theatrical
managers have devised the plan of
telling the story of SalOme and Herod
by moving pictures. However, when
the story reaches the point where
SalOme dances the picture machine
gives way to real flesh and blood.
In the meantime the ministry is
agOg, for large part of the public
seem to have gone mad over the
Merry Widow" waltz, the sheath
skirt and the Salome dance in spite
of their persistent teachings.

a tiny baby in his carriage wheeled
along downtown Broadway. but one
appeared the other day which show
cd that after all the Great White
Way is just like any other place.
Amid all the noises and confusion
of the busy street the little baby
slept peacefully while the mother
pushed the carriage slowly through
the hurrYing, busting crowds PeO-
pie spied the carriage with it's tiny
occupant, however, and stepped aside
while it passed. Occasionally a man
or woman stopped and spoke to the
baby, patting his hand or cheek.
When the mother started to cross
the street the policeman stopped all
traffic until she had safely landed her
charge on the other side. To be
sure only a wee baby, fast asleep
and utterly oblivious of the attention
he was attracting had made a little
journey down Broadway, but those
who saw him slackened their pace,
relaxed their tired faces into gentle
smiles and passed on apparently a
little refreshed.

RETURNED
FROM TAHITI
r. w. CATHCART SAYS THE
FRENCH COLONY is A VERY AT
p TRACTIVE PLACE.

r. w. Cathcart, of this city, who re-
turned from trip to Tahiti few
days ago seems to be very much pleas
ed with that colony. The climate is
very much like this and he states that
the conditions there are very little diff
ferent from those of forty or fifty years
ago except that under the French Gov
eminent the people are still happier
The principal city of the island, Pa
peete, has a population OF about $500
while the island boasts about to TO-
600. OF these about 400 are Euro
peans, three hundred of these being
of the French official c:ass and the
l'other English German and American
In speaking of the natives Mr.. Cath
cart said:
THE life of the native Is an ex-
tremely easy one. There is a great
abundance of bread fruit, cocoanuts,
bananas on which with the fish which
are easily caught, they live very COM
fortably and do very little work. All
speak French and have obtained very
good educations in the French schools.
The products OF the island, which is
the commercial center for that Sec
ton of the Pacific, consist of copra,
pearl shell and banila.
The Tahitian does not drink as hea-
willy as is the case with the Hawaii
an. No liquor is sold except in Pa
peete. There the business is directly
under the eye of the Government and
is watched very carefully. A man may
take a drink or two but you do moi
see the drinking down of big tum
bier of raw spirits as is sometime!
the case here. There are only sly
policemen in the town and they have
practically nothing to do.
There are about three or four hun
dred Chinese in the island, a very de
sirable class and no Japnese whatever
This last matter is one which ha
been looked after by the Government
The climate differs very little from
ours and the majority OF the popula
ton consists of the natives and hal
castles, all of whom are raising fami
= lies and keeping the race from dyin
, out, as is the case here. They ar
very happy and contented under til

WA TER
FOR KULA
A BIG SUM NEEDED FOR SUPPLY
ING THE DRY DISTRICT Or
MAUI.


Engineer Kluegel, of the Department
of Public Works, has completed his
report on the obtaining of a water
supply for the Kua district which
has been suffering for lack of water
for domestic use and has submitted it
to his superior who will probably
place it before Governor Frear this
afternoon. When made acquainted
with the nature of the report Governor
Frear raised his eyebrows with whis-
tie at the enormous expense which
will be needed.
According to the estimates which are
made by Engineer Kluegei it will cost
$4,000 to give the small farmers OF
Kula the water that they need for do
nestle use. That this estimate is not
eXorbitant will be realized when it is
stated that the water will have to be
brought sixteen miles from the source
of supply. The first twelve miles
as far as Waiohuli should be three inch
pipe, and from there to UlupalalIua, a
|
inch pipe may be used. The cost of
material alone will amount to $780,
for the larger pipe and S72SG for the
smaller size. The delivery of this ma
terial which will weigh about $50 tons.
is estimated at $4,000, ana the laying OF
four miles through the forest with the
necessary building of a trail will cost
$4,000 more. The only two other items
are $500 for laying the lower part OF
the line and S2,972 for engineering ex-
penses and contingencies. The total
as has been said, reaches 10000.
According to Mr.. Kluegel the water
supply should be maintained by this
line from the Haleakala Ranch through
the agricultural district of Kua anc
including the Raymond ranch in the
= Honuaula district The supply at pre-
sent comes from the roofs Of the build
ings which are drained into cisterns
which have at present total capacity
of about 100000 gallons. The only
public water in the district comes from
the Polipoli spring to a tank at Keo
ked, WHICH HOluS OuU Sdl-OllS. ne pC
pulation of the district to be covered
is estimated at 1900.
Mr.. Kluegel recommends that thu
water be taken from the Kalepeamo;
gulch, from which there is an average
daily flow of 100000, though when HI
was there on August 25 it was no
much more than $4,000 gallons. Thi
can be taken at a two per cent grad
from its elevation of 1900 feet and dis
tributed from the main line in tire
quarter inch pipes to be provided b.
the users of the water. These SINAI
pipes should lead into the eistern
which will give a plentiful supply t
all.
While there is no doubt of the fac
that the Kula people need water an
need it badly, still there is great dea
of doubt if the Legislature can be in
duced to appropriate $4,000 for an
= such purpose. Such bill will pre-
baby be introduced.
