RULES FOR A MAN WHO is CON-
TEMPLATiNG MATRlMoNY.

Facts to ascertain when meeting an
attractive young woman with whom
you may fail in love:
Is she selfish? You can tell this in
three ways: BY the manner in which
she listens to what you say; by the
way she accepts what you do for her;
and by the difference between the way
she treats you and the way she treats
others.
Is she tickle? If she talks about
light things she isn't. Deep, she is.
Is she ~extravagant? BY the way
she protests against your spending
money on her. and always arranges
matters SO that 4 cant help but
do It.
Is she a bad housekeeper? BY the
way she dresses. If she isn't spic
and span, she isn't. II she is, then
she Is.
THE SOLUTION.
When you have satisfied your mind
that sheeis all of these things. marry
her at once. II you can get her. for
the following reasons:
First, because If she really loves you
she will change.
Second, because IL you love her, 1t
Will be so much more interesting.
Third. because you are probably
mistaken about her, anyway.-Judge.

YACHT GALILEE SAFE
IN CHRISTCHURCH
MAGNETIC SURVEY SHIP PUTS
INTO NEW ZEALAND TO PASS
CHRISTMAS.

WASHINGTON Dec. PA cable
gram received at the Office of the de-
partment of terrestrial magnetism OF
the Carnegie institution announces the
safe arrival of the magnetic survey
yacht Galilee at Chrstchurch New
Zealand, December "a, with all well on
board. The scientific party consists
of w. j. Peters, commander; p. II.
Dixie and d. c. Sewers, magnetic sur
veyors, and DR. George Peterson, sur
geon.
This vessel is engaged in charting
the magnetic variations in the Pacific
ocean. Since August /, 1905, the ag-
gregate length of it's cruises, extend
ing from the Aleutian islands down 10
New Zealand and from Asia to the
North American coast, has amounted
to $4,000 miles.
Results already obtained have en-
abled the United States photographic
Office to issue recently more correct
charts of the lines of equal magnetic
variations than has hitherto been pos
sible 1t was found that along the
tracks pursued by the passenger liners
previous charts were out from three
to five points.
1t is expected the Galilee, after COM
pleting her work at New Zealand, will
leave for Callao, Peru, about the mid
die of January and will probably ar
rive at this South American mort short
ly after the departure of the Pacific
fleet. From Callao the Galilee will re-
turn to San Francisco and close her
work about May Is, 1908

CAPTAIN RINDER
RESIGNS POSITION
SUPERINTENDENT OF PACIFIC
COAST STEAMSHIP COMPANY
QUITS.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1S.-Consid-
cradle surprise was expressed in ship
ping circles yesterday when the fact
became public that Captain John H..
Kinder, superintendent of the Pacific
Coast Steamship Company, had resign
ed. Concerning his retirement the
captain was reticent, but his more in
innate friends said that it was due to
friction between Kinder and the high
err officials of the company.
Captain Kinder assumed the duties
of superintendent of the steamship
company's property IA months ago,
succeeding Captain Wallace.
Who will be Rinder's successor is a
question the company has not yet de-
cided, but it is generally believed that
the new superintendent will be man
favored or selected by the Pacific
Coast Company, which controls the Pa
cifc Coast Steamship Company.
Captain Kinder is one of the best
known mariners on the coast. He
commanded the Pacific Man liner Cop
tic for a number of years, and brought
the Hartman steamship Mongolia
around from the Atlantic for service
between this port and the Orient
About three years ago he Joined the
Hill interests in the north as COM
mander of the Great Northern Steam
ship Company's liner Minnesota, and
remained aboard that big transPacific
vessel until he came here as the sue
cessor of Captain Wallace in charge Of
the Pacific Coast Steamships Com
pany's docks and steamers.

CROWDS At POULTRY SHOVE


The third annual poultry show which
opened yesterday afternoon at the Re
gimental dril shed attracted one Of the
largest crowds that have ever been
present at like show. and until the
doors were closed last night at ten
O'Clock a steady stream of people surg
ed through the hall
The finest collection of birds seen
here were on view, and their owners
came in for a good deal of congratula-
ton. The judging Of the exhibits had
not been completed up to the closing
hour last night. Women and children
seemed to be in the majority during
the show yesterday although there
were large number Of men. The ex-
habits of fruits had special attraction
for the children and their mothers and
sisters had some trouble getting them
away from where the ripe fruits we're
displayed.
One of the best exhibitions outside Of
the poultry was the display of the Ha-
waiian Fertilizer Company under the
direction of Walter Doyle, who present
ed the visitors with neat samples or
their best fertilizer.

UNITED STATES WANTS
SOME FLYING MACHINES
THE WAR DEPARTMENT FORMALLY ISSUES SPECIFICATIONS AND
CALLS PROPOSALS FOX AIRsHPs-MUsT BE REAL AIR
SHIP NOT DrRlGBLE BALLOONS NONE LESS SPEEDY
THAN SO MILES PER HOUR WILL BE CONSIDERED

WASHINGTON, Dec. 24-The Ma
tional government has become de-
voice of the gentle art of aeronautics,
and invitations to inventors all over
the country have been issued from the
War Department to submit proposals
for the construction of a heavier
than-air" flying machine. The Van
ishing Fleets" may thus after all, be-
come more than the weird dream of a
novelist, and Roy Norton, like Jules
Verne, with his Twenty Thousand
Leagues Under the Sea" and Around
the World in Eighty Days" may have
merely anticipated history.
The invitations to inventors are in
the duly prescribed form, and they
bristle with figures and with specifi-
cations which indicate more than any
thing else that the proposed construc-
ton of flying machines, sans gas bags,
to support not only their own weight,
but the weight of at least two men, in
addition to the propelling apparatus
and fuel, is regarded as a practicable
ity.
If the desired end is accomplished.
and the Wright brothers, or Prof
Alexander Graham Bell with his mar
velously developed tetrahedral kite or
some other enthusiast comes forward
with flying machine which will real
| ly fly, the United States government
will be far ahead of its European con-
temporaries, who have been expert
menting for years in aeronautics. but
have not yet succeeded in passing the
stage of the dirigible balloon.
Two central ideas are said to have
animated the War Department in
| again taking up the aeroplane idea
where it was dropped Unto the Poto-
mace by Prof. Langley. One, the de-
sire to stimulate invention by hanging
up an Immediately available prize be-
fore the eyes of the successful pro-
ducers of real flying machines, and the
other, the purpose to provide the Sig
nal Corps with a dirigible machine
which may be operated under almost
| any COuulIlOuS III SeCllOuS OF I0e COu0-
try remote from civilization, and re-
mote from sources of supply of gas
which is now the prerequisite of all
aerial navigation
1t is said that prospective bidders
for the airships are practically assur-
ed of material aid in their undertake
ings from automobile manufacturers,
who are willing and anxious that
their engines shall be tried out above
the clouds, and also that the govern
ment will cooperate in the work pre-
liminary to and during actual con-
| struction.
According to the formal advertise
ment for bids, sealed proposals will
be received in the department up to
noon of February I, 1908, for furnish
ing to the Signal Corps a heavier
than-air" flying machine, and it is
stated that all proposals received will
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-01-09

be turned over to the Board of Ord.
nance and Fortifications for official
action at its first meeting after that
date. The specifications cover the
construction of a flying machine sup
ported entirely by the dynamic reac-
ton of the atmosphere and having no
gas bag. The government reserves
the right to inspect any and all pro-
cesses of manufacture
The drawings must show in scale
the general dimensions and shape OF
the proposed machine, together with
statements of the speed designed, the
total surface area of the supporting
planes and the toal weight. 1t is al
so required that a full description
must be given of the engines to be
used for motive power, and of the ma
terial of which the frames planes and
propellers are to be constructed.
In describing the results which
should be accomplished the depart
ment states that it is desired that the
flying machines be designed so that
they may be taken apart for transport
tation in army wagons, or assembled
within the space of one hour. 1t is re-
quired that each machine proposed
shall support not only it's own weight
but the weight of two persons of an
average of $50 pounds for the two and
the weight of fuel necessary for a
fight Of 1875 miles.
The general aim of the department
is to obtain for the Signal Corps an
aeroplane which shall have a maxi
mum speed of forty miles an hour, but
it is stated that bidders must also
submit quotations depending on speed
attained in the trial flight on the basis
of the following scale: Forty miles
an hour, 100 per cent; thirty-nine
miles, 80 per cent; thirty-eight miles
so per cent; thirty-seven miles, 70 per
cent; thirty-siv miles, GO per cent. Any
machine flying at a slower rate Of
speed than thirty-six miles an hour
will be rejected. If they believe it pos
sible TO produce aeroplanes travelling
at a greater rate of speed than the
standard the inventors are required t.
submit quotations of cost according t.
the following ratio: Forty-one mile!
an hour, 40 per cent; forty-two miles
100 per cent; forty-three miles, 13t
per cent; forty-four miles, 140 pei
cent. 1t is desired that each airshiE
shall be provided for safe descent in
case of accident. Prospective inven.
tors are informed that all speed and
endurance trials will be held over q
course of more than five miles in
length, with flying start and flying fin.
ish The endurance test will include .
sustained flight of at least one hour.
duration 1t will be required that the
ship. to be accepted, must land safely
after IT'S fight and without the aid o
special apparatus and also that y bt
in such condition that another fligh
may be undertaken Immediately.
