A|RSH|P MAY
HAVE BEEN KITES

Ibid you see the airship?" was a
question asked around town yesterday
morning and inquiry brought out the
fact that mysterious green and red
lights had been seen soon after twi-
light. Saturday, over the western sea.
The bright moonlight, later, failed To
reveal ship or smoke, and. besides. the
lights were far too high to belong to
anything that sailed the ocean. There
seemed no way to explain the phe-
nomenon except by the airship theory.
Reports were current recently in Ia
coma that an airship had been seen
lowering over the waters at night, and
it was thought the Tacoma airship was
here, but explanation followed, ac-
cording to news brought by the Ala
media, when it was learned that Ger
tain wireless experimenters of Tacoma
had been testing certain theories by
the use of large aeroplane kites. and
colored lanterns were attached to the
kites for the purpose of keeping them
in view.
what was discussed, before they sail
ed. aboard the Brazilian and Chilean
training ships which left here for Yo-
kohama on Saturday, applies in the
case of the supposed airship over these
contiguous waters Saturday evening.
The Brazilian warship. Benjamin
Constant. is equipped with a fairly
good wireless apparatus. though not
powerful while the Chilean has no
such wireless, although one of her Of
ficers recently acquired a modern re-
ceiving apparatus. He and Monsieur
Luis Popelaire, newspaper correspond
ent aboard the Chilean, the General
Baquedano, conceived the idea of rig
ging a kite aerial surface and receiv-
ing messages from the Brazilian dur
ing the voyage to the Orient together.
The Brazilian left here eight hours
ahead of the Chilean, but they are
both sailing. and there was probably
not more than forty or fifty miles be-
tween them at twilight on Saturday.
They were probably the Chilean's
large aeroplane kites with red and
green lights that were mistaken for an
airship by numerous Honolulu people,
According to the plans, the expert
ment was to start the first evening
after departure and the Chilean's two
kites were to be connected and were
to support delicate wire leading to
the receiving instrument aboard, the
red light on one kite and the green
light on the other to indicate their
positions. They were probably at an
elevation of 1000 feet when taken for
an airship.
The Brazilian can send messages TO
the Chilean, but the latter can not
respond. Incidentally, at night the
Brazilian can see the lighted kites of
the Chilean at 9 considerable distance

SOCIETY

Most gratifying news has been re-
ceived in the last mail regarding the
signal success scored by the young
Hawaiian vocalist, Lot Kaulukou, who,
under the name of Carlos Sebastian,
made his debut in grand opera in Mon
dow. singing the principal baritone
part in the production oft"Don Pas
quale" His success at this debut be-
fore a critical audience was phencme-
nal. the young singer being called re-
peatedly before the curtain at the con-
clusion of the opera, when he was
greeted with tremendous applause and
the shouts of Bravo baritone"
The news of the triumph of her pro-
tege was written by Mrs. Agnes Nom
tague Turner to her brother, Mr.. C.
NJ. Cooke, in the letter being enclosed
a number of newspaper clippings, criti-
cisms from Roman and Italian publica-
tons, all praising the performance of
Carlos Sebastian and some Of them
prophesying brilliant future for him.
The debut was made in Mondovi, an
important musical center Of the Italian
provinces, but the newspapers of Rome
devoted almost as much space to an
appreciation of the new singer as the
local papers of Mondovi.
In her letter Mrs. Turner writes:
Lot was less nervous than might have
been expected and consequently he was
in finer voice than in his former trials. |
He went through his solo magnificent

criticisms. His pronunciation of italian

FEARFUL SEIZURES Of PAIN
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills Remov-
ed Dozen Large Stones and
Relieved the Pain.

Joseph Deloge. OF RentOn. Wash,
L. S. A, writes OF his wonderful cure.
He says:
Il think the alkali water of the West
affected my kidneys. I began to have
pain in the back, headache and dizzy
spells. I was so stiff and lame it hurt
me to work. I came to Seattle. but
the change of climate did not help me
1t was dangerous for me to work at
my trade. Once 1 was taken with. a
dizzy spell when walking along the

taken with an awful pain in the groin.
1 thought 1 had appendicitis. In agony
1 went to a doctor. He said gall stone,
and administered morphine to ease my
pain He gave me some effervescent
salts and said it would dissolve the
stone, but it didn't.
Soon after this, 1 heard about Doan's
Backache Kidney Pills, and began
using them faithfully. The treatment
very quickly began to dissolve the
stone. 1t crumbled and came out in the
urine, in the form of a sandy, gritty
sediment. For several days this con-

could be scraped off the bottom Of the
vessel in large quantities. One day
the urine stopped flowing. and 1 was
taken with a frightful pain. It kept

There was constant desire to urinate,
but could not pass a drop. In the
morning that big stone 1 sent you came
