JAPAN STORES coRpITE.

London, January 29.-It has been
learned that the japanese Government
Is still shipping large quantities Of
cordite from England to Japan. As
previously stated, Japan is laying In a
prodigious stock of cordite. Many
shipments were made last year. The
German steamship Slawentseitz came
to the Thames from Antwerp and Is
now anchored of Holehaven, near the
mouth of tho river, taking In a full
cargo OF the material.
Holehaven is the port where all ex.
plosives are embarked. II Is unusual
for ships to take complete cargo of
cordite, wherefore the Slawentseitz' 8
cargo is causing considerable com.
ment.
The explosive Is made by Kinochs,
the famous Birmingham Arm Of man
ufacturerg of war materials. AS usual
with cargoes destined for the Japan
csc Government, no port is stated In
the SlawentseitZ's charter.

A gold brick instead Of the real
goods is what many who come to Ha-
wall get. A trip Of nine days In,
steamer to land of promise, expec-
tations of the brightest and picture

awaiting them on arrival are some
of the inducements held out to Jap

For a long time the Immigration

little bundle OF luggage each OF the

which she cherishes above all her
belongings. 1t is usually the feat

man.
Having passed her examination,
little Okamisan starts in to wait for
her lord and master. Through the
wickets of the Station gates the girls
with the photos in their hands and
the names OF their future husbands
on their lips peek out at the crowd
of Japanese on the other side, COM

companion.
She glances at the picture and
then around the room. She sees the
interpreter, the Japanese priest there
to perform the ceremony, and an old
bear of a Jap whose name tallies
with that OF her intended.
Okamisan feels hurt. Then she
grows angry and In her artless Jap
anese way refuses to go on with the
dance. Expostulations on her part,
however, hardly count. 1t is explain
ed to her that the photo is a picture
of the sutton for her hand but that
a. was taken long time ago, or that
knowing her charms the swain has
grown to look old with waiting fol-

Honolulu and Honolulu people are
naturally modest, not given to boast
ing. Other cities may faunt their
virtues and blessings, boast of their
climate, their natural resources, their
prosperity, and challenge all other
communities to put forward compar-
alive lists of millionaires, business
enterprises or civic undertakings -
but not Honolulu. The people of this
little burg are by nature modest, re-
firing and bashful, content to sit in
for more pushing and blatent spirits.
Honolulu doesn't even know all the
virtues and blessings which its peo-
pie enjoy.

that his city harbors n whole bevy OF
phlanthropists who so about doing

of his own natural talents and pure
minded disinterestedness, is, OF
course, that prince of philanthro-
pists, Charlie Achi. Charlie lives

not received his Just rewards, but

day he will get them.

As the moon revolves aDout the

efforts, like the two already mem
toned, Joe's specially is caring for
the health of the community. His
position on the Board OF Supervisors
enables him to do this to advantage,
and he spares no effort to see that
the health of his constituents is pro-
perly preserved. Cost what 1t may,
disease must be kept out of the con-
fines of Honolulu. Less philanthrop-
ic men might be content to see the
work of the road and garbage de-
partments combined under one head,
even II 1t did cost the city some odd
thousands of dollars less each year,
but not SO Joe Fern. He knows that
this is neither right nor healthful-
for Archer says so, and Archer knows
the secret. And he intends to see
that things are fixed.
Honolulu has other philanthropists
who might be mentioned, but these
names, unknown and destined to re-
main unknown beyond the shores OF
this group of Islands, are enough to
remind the people of the city that
they are entertaining In their midst
angels unawares.
But virtue cannot always remain
hidden. Some day, after generations
have come and gone, the greatness of
these names will be recognized, and
the Mckinley memorial fund will be
used to erect statues of these men to
remind unborn generations of the
days when Honolulu was the city OF
great men.

was changed into a raging tor

the current is said to have been
so strong that it washed out a
barn and sent some of the tim
