over half a million dollars in the year
1907. A summary of the company's
affairs on December 81 is contained in
the following ad interim report of the
president and board Of directors to the
stockholders. which explains also why
such a report is now issued:
In submitting the following brief re-
port we beg to call your attention to
the fact that the Interstate Commerce
rules and regulations have been ex-
tended to this Territory, and to con-
form to all their requirements the old
system of books of accounts were clos
ed on the Both of June, 1907, ,and a new
set opened as of July 1st, 1907. The
system of keeping the accounts to
meet the requirements of the Interstate
Commerce Commission is made uni
form for all railroad companies
throughout the United States ani Its
Territories, and has caused so many

and keeping accounts as to render IL
impossible to make comparative state
ments of the new forms of accounts
with those of the old. The time for
closing the books for annual state
ments is also changed from the end
of calendar years to June S0th. The
books of your company for the new
fiscal year will therefore be closed
June 30. 1908.
The annual meeting for the consid-
Grafton of reports and election of Of
f1cers will be held as soon as reports !
are prepared. AS the usual annual
and accompanying reports |
have been deferred, for the reason
given, it was decided by |
the board of directors that the presi-
dent should distribute to the stock

The beauteous Liliuolalu still holds
the lime spot in the center of the
stage, and verse more or less metrical,
continue to pour in to her address.
Many of the rhymes require expurga-
ton and other obliteration. One, smit-
ten with the charms of the belle of
Oahu, has evidently been handed the
mitten, for he exclaims:
The beautiful Liliuolalu,
Princess of the days of the kapu;
To her lover she said
When he begged her to wed:
''Aole .oe hama wau huhu."
But she has rivals. Note:
The beautiful Liliuolalu;
She's sumner and peace in a pau;
And a big hit she made
In the Floral Parade;
But she wasn't as cute as Kunalu.
others there are, beyond the pale,
who question the very existence of the
fair one and suspect even her blood
relations of being apocryphal. In three
yearning stanzas this doubt is utter
ed. Listen to the yearn:
o Cousin Elali and Liliuolalu,
Parade riders and bellies of Oahu;
Now, if you're SO cute
And each is a beaut,
Please teH us all where and who are
yoM
For we'll each take a run DER the Pail
To see Lii and her cousin, Elali.
Now, please shout;
Bring 'em out;
Name your friends. sweetest Lii and
Elali.
If there is sIeh a girl as Olalu-
She who rides splendidly with the
Bring her out
With a shout
And relieve the fair Isle of Oahu.
Such is fame. Another writer sheds |
light on Lili's past. He says:
The beautiful Liliuolalu
Had married one Billy Pahu;
But he was so coarse
That she got a divorce
Now there's a chance for you.
Another, this one a rival, beyond |
doubt discounts all the joyfulness of
the preceding by announcing Liliuo-
lalu's demise.
It's a shame and it makes me feel ill
To announce the sad death of poor Lii,
But it surely is worse
When 1 add it was verse;
And it's up to the poets to foot the
whole bill.
Lille now can never be mated,
For her body is safely cremated.
She is dead. God be thanked
Let her poets be spanked,
And their verses be now eXpurgated.
But the news of her death seems to
be exaggerated, for later comes the
that
The beauteous Liliuolalu,
Who met only men that her ma knew,
Had a circle as wide
AS the incoming tide
For she knew all the men on Oahu.
Other evidence that sweet Lii is
with us yet is furnished by these: 9i.i

Vote the question of rivals tabu;
For no maid from the Pail
Must venture to daily
With lovers of pretty Lalu.
The beau of Liliuolalu

The canoe got upset,
And the paint it got wet
On the face of sweet Liliuolalu.

FLOATING DEBT
Since the issue of bonds in 1897 to
the amount of s2,0OO,0OO to refund OBJ
legations then existing, your company
has expended for permanent improve
ments: Wharves, warehouses, water
front property in fee, branch roads,
new rolling stock, ETC., $970.377.S7, thus
increasing the total value of its prop
erty about $1,000, 900 without increasing
its bonded debt. The obligations thus
incurred from year to year have been
represented as a floating DEBT, and the
surplus earnings during the past ten
years have been applied to the liqui-
dation of the same, leaving q bal
ance on December 81, 1907, as shown
above.
We consider that this method OF
financing has been more favorable to
the interests of the stockholders than to
have increased the issue of bonds in
1897 to 100000. The practical result
has been the same as If we had issued
s3,Oo0,O0O in bonds in 1897 and redeemed,
through a sinking fund during the first
ten years, % 1-2 per cent, or $S55,000,
of such issue, which would have left
December 81, 1907, s2,145,-
900 bonds, the amount of the present
bonded and floating debt.
1t may be of interest in this connec-
ton to note that the net earnings dur
ing the ten years ending December 81,
1907, have been 1896, 9.S7. and the
amount of dividends paid were 1884,
$4,000.
GENERAL REMARKS.
While the gross earnings for 1907
show an increase over 1906 of s34,07e 81,
the net earnings show a decrease of
s2e,921.79. This is accounted for by the
fact that an unusually large amount
Of work and materials were expended
in repairs and improvements to road
bed and track, renewal and repairs on
rolling stock and macadamizing wagon
roads around the Honolulu termina, to
and wharves, resulting in
raising the standard of the
railway system and the efficiency in
the operating departments.
FUTURE PROSPECTS,
The prospects for a fair increas, OF
business for the year 1908 are grod.
There will be an increase of several
tons in sugar and fruit for
The Waianae Lime
Co., Ltd, which commenced business
near the close of 1907. will provide new
business to the extent of several thou
sand tons,
No serious accidents have occurred
Turing the past year.

Lliuolalu's demise brought forth a
storm of indignant protests yesterday
and there remains no room for doubt
that up to the time of going to press
she is alive and well.
Even the Irish have become inter-
ested in the beauteous Lii and "Kai-
muki' writes the following:
o beauteous Lily DIAL
You're surely the broth of a gal;
If you won't be my wife
Through the journey of life,
Content me by being my pal.
Husband" has evidently allowed
himself to be prejudiced by someone
who has no use for Miss L. Hear his
complaint:
Liliuolalu is keen as a knife.
She'd torment man all his life;
She'd tattle and talk
And at her work balk--
What daisy to take for wife.
"Sceptic" is another who entertains
no high opinion of the lady of the hour.
His arraignment follows:
Liliuolalu has set such a pace
That she's apt to discredit her race;
She has taken to drink
And f1irts with a Chink-
Her ending will be dire disgrace.
The terpsichorean prowess of good
old Lii receives due recognition in the
following lines from Jack:
IN. Liliuolalu's a daisy,
She sets all the young fellows crazy
Her lips are so sweet,
Her form so petite.
And her hulas beat those of Miss
Maize.
''Smitten" harks back to Cousin
Elali. His bark:
I sing of the dark-eyed Elali
Whose home is just over the Pail;
Even birds you may hear
Singing sweetly and clear:
''Elali. Elali, Elali."
At late hour last night the follow
ing was received from the beauteous
herself. The address was Kakaako:
Pretty soon I'll be sending my bill
For the columns I'm helping to fill;
Go ahead with your drool,
You will find I'm no fool,
And I can spell libel"

Tendency Of Times

There are. for instance, restaurants
in the Champs Elysees which are cen
Quoted by propristors With places else
where In the city. Thus it 10 possible
to keep some intimacy Of atmosphere
in them. But the demands on the re-
sources Of these places are so small
that they are not to be compared in
any way with the New York restau-
rants. II any restaurants have the
same problems to meet that face the
New York managers they are those
Of the large hotels in London.
One reason why New Yorf rsstau-
rants have become 30 large 10 the re-
cent union OF the hotel and the rec
taurant. Formerly hotel restaurants
were comparatively little patronised
by any save the hotel guests. The old
Brunswick quarter OF q century ago
tried to rival Delmonico's, which used
to stand opposite. and made some
sort Of stab ut It in the beginning. but
later 1t was only the restaurant that
survived
was with the opening OF the Wal
dorfAstoria that New Workers got
into the habit Of going to . hotel only
to use the restaurant The recent
erection Of 30 many new aAd hand
some hotels with the effort always to
attract outside customers has made
dining in hotels quite as usual as eat
ing In q restaurant. So the posi-
bility Of = quiet and unmusical meal
seems more remote than ever.

Large Restaurants

r HE announcement that there IL to
be in New York n new restaurant
seating 5000 diners at once will not
be q surprise to those who have no
ticed the present tendency in such
matters. The small intimate restau-
rant Of the first class IL almost a
thing Of the past in this city.
II small restaurants do exist they
are rarely Of the same grade as the
large ones. They are small because
the proprietor has not yet been sue
cessful enough to 60 In on a large
scale. As soon a. he does make
money and attracts \ sufficient num-
Der Of customers he iS certain to make
his place just As large az his resources
warrant.
There is no such thing here a. q
restaurant kept small for its own sake
In the European cities there are res
taurAnts which have existed prosper
ously for years and never increased
their capacity for guests by a single
square foot. 1t Ii more customary in
Paris for q proprietor who finds sue
cess in one place to open another in
some other part Of the town.
