Bernard Kelekolio and Charley Clark
had little clash over politics on a
Liliha street car Tuesday evening.
Bernard, the t'Boy Orator, says Char
ley called him lowstripe politician
and even threatened to make things
warm for him. The Boy Orator says
he was then at loss TO understand
what Clark meant, but later learned
that Clark believed him to be the au-
thor of a certain Republican slate
which was published in the Bulletin
with Clark proposed therein for Depu-
ty Sheriff under Wise. Charley worked
himself to believe that the Advertiser
got Bernard to draw up this ticket
and then to keep the conspiracy going,
had it published in the Bulletin, which
Of course, was the last straw. Clark
seems to have lost all patienee over
his discovery and when he found the
Boy Orator on the street car, he vocal
" warmed the atmosphere However,
nothing more came of the meeting and
Clark got off at Vineyard street.

W|RELEssED
FOR POLICE
A $40 Gold Piece of Old Date
Causes Message to Be
Sent.

A call for the Honolulu police fash
ed through about one hundred miles
of air yesterday from the steamship
Hilonian, which was then approaching
the islands from San Francisco. The
message was sent to the steamer s local
agents, and told briefly a story con-
eerning a certain gold piece which did
not appear to have the true ring, nor
the proper inscription, and in addition
the date was so far back of the Civil
War period that suspicion arose in the
minds of some of the officers that the
man aboard who passed it might ne ed
looking after on arrival
The police were on hand and went
out to meet the ship at the entrance
to the harbor. The man who paid over
the gold piece was in the steerage. The
fact that he and a stowaway appear
ed to be quite chummy, and that their
talk was suspicious, determined the
officers to take no chances. So they
wirelessed aboard for the police to be
on hand The officers shadowed the
men up town and already know com
siderable about their habits and late
residences. The gold piece, wGle not
appearing just up to standard, was
thought by some to be O. K.

OPPORTUNITY
FOR DELEGATES
Transmississippi Congress to

Governor Frear yesterday received
an interesting circular concerning the
nineteenth annual session of the Trans

waii is entitled to representation. Ha-

Governor Frear and H. P Wood. Last

Oklahoma, and Governor Frear was
present representing Hawaii.
No representatives have been ap-
pointed yet, but Governor Frear in
tends to appoint one or more delegates.
Each state or territory is entitled to
ten delegates and each county to one,
so that Chairman Hustace may ap.
point a delegate if he chooses. Each
business organization may appoint one
and additional ones according to size,
so the Chamber of Commerce and the
Merchants Association might each be
represented.

subject of discussion and others are:

No ManeuveTs Are to
Be Carried Out on
Cruise.

In way satisfactory to the Admiral
IN command and a source of gratiica-
tion to the officers and men comprising
the personnel of the fifteen ships of
war which arrived in Honolulu harbor
yesterday from San Francisco, one
fourth of the towing cruise test was
completed yesterday forenoon just as
the feet rounded Diamond Head. Just
before the noon hour the graceful flag
ship West Virginia steamed slowly
down the channel into the harbor,
saluted by the Naval Station battery
and followed by the other warships.
AS the vessel swung past the Naval
docks the guns of the starboard and
port batteries belehed forth an answer
ing salute, and presently she was moor
ed alongside the Alakea wharf. BY
five O'Clock all the warships were
berthed in the positions assigned them
by Captain Rees, U. s.. N, command
ant of the Honolulu station.
The torpedo destroyers were east off
before the feet passed Diamond Head
so that each cruiser was free from a
drag, the big ships being followed by
the little ones in fotilla.
Towing was Successful.
The cruise was test of the towable
qualities of the destroyers on one hand,
and test of the efficiency of the sys-
tenn of towing by larger vessels of the
Navy on the other hand. From both
viewpoints the test, so far, is consid-
cred satisfactory. The destroyers are
vet to be towed to Samoa, them back
to Honolulu again, and still there re-
mains the last leg of the journey from
Honolulu to San Diego. When the
cruise is completed the final judgment
on the system of towing will be passed.
Three or four of the tow lines parted
during the voyage but this was due en-
tirely to friction of the hawser over
the bows of the destroyers. The
weakest part of the link in the long
towline was designedly nearest the de-
stroyer. In case of a line parting it
was best that it should be nearest the
boat in tow, so that the larger vessel
could manage the longest portion of the
broken line. If the line parted nearest
the towing vessels the vessel in tow
might get entangled.
On board each towing vessel was
dynamometer which registered the
strain on the hawser. The latter had
TO stand a 10000 pound working strain,
although for test the strain could be
made greater.
A Fine Spectacle.
There was not so large a crowd along
the docks to see the ships as in the
case of the Atlantic fleet, but those
who stayed away missed a treat. The
cruisers are more graceful in outline
than the battleships. Each vessel is

spirit of burning devotion to duty which drove them forward, each to do the right as 1t was given him to see the right, in the great years when Grant, Farragut, Sherman, Thomas and Sheridan, when Lee and Jackson and the Johnstons, the valiant men of the north and the valiant men of the south, fought to finish the great civil war. They did not themselves realize in the bitterness of the struggle that the blood and the grim suffering mark ed the death throes of what was worn out and the birth bangs of new and more glorious national life. Might is the heritage which we have received from the men of the mighty days. we in our turn must gird up our loins to meet the new issues with the same stern courage and resolute adherence to an ideal which marked our fathers who belonged to the generation of the man in whose honor we commemorate this monument today.
