WOOD PULP FROM sAwDUsT

A pulp mill with every saw mill is the prospect from a new idea that is being worked out in Canada. con- pany with s1,000,00O capital has been incorporated for operations near Van couver, British Columbia, and the work of building a plant has begun. The company already has small mill that is reported to be making pip f IT paper, and the method is merely tt be applied on a larger scale, to use up some 5000 tons of sawtlust that Is made in that vicinity each month. The company is building it's pl mt where there is plenty of water-pow~ CT and water to use for cleansing the pulp. The process Is somewhat differ ent for making pulp from sawdus. and there, is more to do than Is required to make paper of spruce selected for the purpose, but the work gan be done cheaper where there is plenty of wa ter and power. It makes llttle differ ence what kind of timber .ae ,lls. is from, and that suggests the pnssibil- ity of making paper out of anything which has a fiber or can be made to produce fiber by chemical process. As the large lumber companies are row burning their sawdust at more expense than 1t is worth for fuel, the maNimg < of paper from 1t promises an econ omy that should be of interest all over the world The Vancouver company has laid plans to sell it's papar. rlade fir pm the sawdust pulp, in the Cnltel States and Australia, which giges an impress sion that 1t is to make gle,.. deal. The prospectus claims that it will make 360 tons of paper week. 200 tons of 1t being for ne Nspaper print and 160 tons manila or wrapping pa per.
 Millions of tons of sawduss are prac- tically wasted in the Unitei States an nually, though 1t is tur led into o)m- mercial products now much more than in the past There are vari ,us by-products to look after, as the diff 1 ferent kinds of wood make ecmbina i tions and sweet substance is ,re oi 1 them. The prospects are gD,6 that paper for news print will be made l within the year of other materials
 than the fresh spruce and other e CT.
 green trees of the forests. The Ia, straw that has been burned for wears
 Is good for that purpose, as is also tht waste from other materials, and tht i fbers of the tropics are being ex
 perimented upon for the same pur pose. But sawdust has evidentl,
 made a strong start for the leading
 place in this important economy. Con gress may yet be asked to adjust
 tariff duty on sawdust to protect {
 new American industry against Cana
 dian hustle.-Worceste Telegram.

LOST WITH CREW
Vessel Thought to be Leonora, of Mystic, Wrecked Off
 HatteraS.
BUT TWO SAILORS SURVIVE
Gilbert Transportation Schooner Goes to picccs Quickly After Strik-
 ing Shoals.

Norfolk, Va. Jan. S.-A broken message received here over the United States seacoast telegraph wires to-day from Cape Hatteras, on the North car olina coast, reports the stranding and loss on Diamond Shoals yesterday Of an unknown schooner out Of whose crew of seven men five pershed ana two were saved The message, which fails to give the name of the lost yes sel reports her to have been schoo- ner bound from Long Point, Me, to Charleston, s. C., laden with fish scrap.
 The captain of the vessel was amons those who were lost.
 The two men who escaped are report ed to be foreigners, who heard those aboard say that the vessel was forty two years old. The schooner, accord ing to the dispatch went to pieces with- in thirty minutes after she struck on the shoals The gale registered d wind velocity of seventy-five miles an hour at the cape, and is asserted to nave been one of the worst storms In east ern Carolina since 1879.
 The wires to Cape Hatteras are not working to-day, and fuller information concerning the wreck is unobtainable The meagre information obtained had to be passed for some distance up the coast by the patrolman of the life saving crew and then telegraphed into Norfolk.
 The storm to-day has completely passed from this coast and the weather is clear.
 Portland Me, Jan. S.-A possible trace of the identity of the schooner lost off the Diamond Shoal yesterday is the fact that the schooner Leonora, with a cargo of fish scrap. is out from Round Pond, Me, bound for Charles : ton. The Leonora, under command oi captain Brown left Round Pond abou November 25 for Charleston, and was last reported at Saunderstown, R. ;. where she arrived on December 20 anc remained until December 29. The Leon ora registered i'll tons net, and wal formerly a whaling brig hailing iron New Bedford, Mass. She was bull at Columbia Falls, Me. in 1874. Sh' carried a crew of seven men, and wa owned by the Gilbert Transportation company of Mystic, Conn.
 The two men saved from the los schooner, the identity of which is stil .unestablished, are the vessels cook, al American, so nearly exhausted tha nothing can be gotten from him, and Germn sailor, who can speak but fey words of English. The two survivor were washed ashore on wreckage, an' found on, the beach by the life savers who were unableto put into the storn to the rescue of the crew of the i'll fated schooner. The German sailor i unable to give the name of the vessel.

SPOR T S
TENNIS DOUBLES
NOW UNDER WAY

The first three matches in the tour
nament for the tennis doubles cham
pionship were played yesterday after
noon at the courts of the Beretania
Tennis Club and caused some little
surprise. The best of the three was
that between G. &. Bockus and Jack
Guard, the latter a PunahOu student
hailing from Hilo, and c. Montague
Cooke Jr. and l.. Lewton-Brain, from
the Manoa Tennis Club. From the
practise which took place before the
match was started it looked as though
the Valley men would win out easily,
but when it came to the match itself
the change was noticeable. Bockus
and Guard steadied down, the former
using his famous butcher stroke"
with rare accuracy, while their oppon-
ents went up in the air. The Bereta-
mia men won out by a score of to,
SO, 81.
In the match in which Theodore
Richards and his son Anterior Rich
ards were pitted against j. p. Cooke
and Sam Baldwin, the family combi-
nation won out. The feature of the
playing was that of little Atherton
Richards, who, though not very much
taller than the net, was all over the
court and played in very pretty form.
Baldwin and Cooke failed to play a
steady game and gave the match to
their opponents by too much driving
into the net.
The final match of the day was II.
S. Grey and r. B. Booth VS.. w. II.
Babbitt and w. Williamson. The first
named couple proved too strong, I'M
til darkness came to the aid of their
opponents. At that time the score
stood CO, GA, 81 in favor of Babbitt
and Williamson. Then the sun drop
ped from sight and the balls kept fly
ing back and forth across the net in a
surprisingly fast manner, the only
time the spectators could see them be-
ing when they hit the rackets of the
players. Booth and Grey began to

RIGHT OF A MAN
TO COME and GO

OF course we don't want Reilly to
go, but this poppy-cock about his be-
ing under any moral or other obli-
cation to stay and fight frankie Smith
is all rot. A man has a right to come
and go as long as he pays his bills and
steers clear of legal ENHANCEMENT
Reilly doesn't owe a cent and his re-
cords clean, and if he wants to get
away in the Alameda he should have
the God Speed" of every decent
sportsman. He is not under obliga-,
tons to anybody and any talk to the
contrary is hot air and buncombe.
Might as well say tnat a theatrical
troupe which wanted to get out of town
because the receipts were not big
enough, was under moral" obligation
to stay and play. Rot
You may have to take the count, Reilly
With better man than you;
You may feel, some day, you've had
about enough;
But you'll always be a sport,
And do just what you ought
You may take the count, BUT NEVER
TAKE A BLUFF!
If you want to go away, Reilly,
We know you have to go:
For the moneys not as thick as it
might be;
So don't let the crazy fans
Interfere with private plans
Go ahead and leave the kickers where
they be!

GRAND OLD
MAN Of TENNIS

liam Aymar Yarned is the grand old
man" of tennis. At the age of 40 he
showed he is the most wonderful play
er in the country by winning the title
for the fourth time in the recent tour
nament in Newport.
By defeating Beals Wright and
through the default of Malcolm Whit
man, he won his first championship in
1901. The following year he success
fully defended his title against Re-
ginald Doherty of the English cup
team. In 1903 he lost the title to Hugh
Doherty.
Last year he came into his own again
and took the title from William Cloth
Ter, the great Philadelphia player. BY
his achievement, Larned equaled the
record of Bob Wren as a four-time
champion, which is only surpassed by
that of Richard D. Sears, who held
the title from 1881 to 1887 inclusive. By
this recent victory over Richie, the
English champion, he qualified for the
American team that is to go to Aus
tralia on tomorrow to play for the
Davis cup at Melbourne on Nov. 81. He
says he cannot afford to waste the
time.
The present arrangement is to have
Alexander and Wright play in the
singles and then to form a partnership
for the doubles. In sending these two
players the Americans have nominat-
ed for the Davis trophy challenge
round the second and third best men
of this country The general expecta-
ton is that the Americans will certain
ly get two of the four singles matches
and will be victorious in the doubles.

pick up and brought the score to So
At this point the wiser counsels or
the officials of the clubs interviewed
and it was decided to toss up for the
set. Rabbit and his partner won
out, giving them another chance for
the championship honors.
Matches will be played on the courts
of both the Beretania and Pacific Ten
mis- clubs this afternoon. At the courts
on Young and Kapiolani streets play
will start at 4 o'clock, w. l.. Warren
and Sonny Cunha taking the measure
of Harold Castle and f. e. Steere. The
first named combination is a strong
one and should beat Castle and Steere,
following this up with a very close try
for the championship of the islands.
The match of Bockus and Guard
against the Richards combination,
which will be played at the same time,
is a hard one to pick. The Richards
is liable to spring many surprises on
them.
At the Pacific courts there will be
two matches. also beginning at
O. o'clock. r. G. Forster and p. J. Har-
wood, who play slow but remarkably
steady game, should succeed in beat
ing Babbitt and Williamson, who will
be bit tired out after their exertions
of yesterday. There is nothing SNOWY
about the playing of the first named
couple but they keep the ball going
back and forth across the net till their
opponents are well tried out. The
second match VIII be between A. L..
Castle and Dick Cooke, who played
against each other in the finals of the
singles tournament and are both from
the Pacific Tennis, and c. H. Atherton
and l.. S. CONFESS of the Beretania
Club. The first named couple should
win out without trouble though it may
be said that both are stronger in sin
giles than in doubles and when it
comes to the final match Warren and
Cunha should be able to win from
them.
