Improved Heating Apparatus.

John Garbarini is putting the
finishing touches upon the plumbing
of the new residence of the superin-
tendent Of the Kennedy mine, near
the east shaft. The building is pro
vided with the radlometer method of
heating. That is ny means of pipes
charged with hot water. This process
is easily regulated, and an even tenn
peIatlre can be readily secured. One
fire answers the purpose of heating
all the rooms. Ihe first cost is con
siderable, but once in operation the
process is economical as we'll sas

adopted for the court house aud hail

the saving of fuel in the course of a

a Bold Robbery.

Joe Dalo's saloon on Water street
was the scene of boldly conceived
robbery during Saturday night. The
saloon is in the front part of the
Rocco building. There is a hallway
on une side, leading to private rooms
III the rear. In this hallway there is
glass door leading to the card room
of the saloon, which connects with
the barroom. Two nickel-in- the-slot
machines stand in the barroom, and
one of them had been kept running
pretty lively up to a late hour
Saturday night. Dalo left for his
home after II O'Clock, leaving a cleo
trio light burning both in saloon and
cardroom. The door in the card
room leading to the hallway was Sc
cured by a simple catch in staple.
Mr. Dalo's father arrived Sunday
morning to open up business, and
discovered that the premises had
been burglarized, The cash register
had been riiled of Its contents. and
the back of one of the % cent lot
machines had been pried off. and the
entire contents in cash had been alb
stracted. The burglar had obtained
entrance through the glass door con
Meeting with the hallway. One of
the panes of glass had been broken,
and all the glass removed. The
opening made was l0xl7 inches, and
through this the burglar mnst have
entered. All the electric lights were
e::tInguished by simply unscrewiug
the globes sufficiently to disconnect
the wires. One light in the cardroom
was left, to afford sufficient light for
the robber to ply his mission. The
back of the slot machine was pried
off by the stove poker found in the
room. There was Sl5 in the cash
register, and it is thought from 500
to $50 IN the slot machine, which con-
stltued the sack received by the
burglar.
An em pty sack identified as belong
ing TO the premises was found under
the old planning mill by j. Barton on
Tuesday. 1t is thought to have been
used by the robber in packing the
money from the premises, and thrown
under the mill. The discovery is of
little value as a clew, except to in
dicate the direction the intruder
took after capturing the coin.
An Italian named Amadeo Bonello,
was arrestedW ednesday evening at the
Chicago hotel on Broadway, on
suspicion of being implicated III the
burglary. 1t seems he had been
boarding at the Chicago house. On
Sunday he went to Jackson Gate,
staying two or three days. Accord
ing to reports he was we'll supplied
with quarter dollars, spending them
freely. On his return to the board

OAHU WILL De
PACIFIC MALTA
CFrom Saturdays Advertiser)


I DO rot think it possible that this
Congress can fail to make appropria-
tions for the improvement and fortifi-
cation of Pearl Harbor," said H. P.
Wood. secretary of the Promotion
Committee. who returned yesterday by
the Alameda from several months on
the mainland. a large part of the time
spent in Washington.
The appropriations will not be large
ones, but they will be abundantly large
to keep the work going until another
Congress meets. The sentiment is
everywhere that the Island of Oahu
must be made a fortified and a defend
ed position. to which even Malta can
scarcely compare. The report that was
sent out that the Naval Committee Of
the House had turned down the Pearl
Harbor proposition was misleading.
The committee decided not to put the
Pearl Harbor items in the naval forti-
fications bill because, being new items,
they could. under the rules Of the
House, be thrown out by one member
objecting. So the committee appointed
a subcommittee 10 draft a new bin,
which has been done, which provides
Tor the beginning of construction of
drydock, repair shops, navy yard, and
all that sort of thing. The channel,
too, will be Strengthened and deepened.
Admiral Dewey is most enthusiast
tic and insistent on the matter of Pearl
Rarbor. No matter what subject is
talked about. he will bring up Pearl
Harbor. He said repeatedly that Pearl
Harbor must be improved and fortified.
The President is as warm an advocate
of Pearl Harbor as Admiral Dewey.
He buttonholes Senators and Represen-
tatives on the subject everywhere. In
fact, every army and navy officer l
met believes in the improvement and
fertilization of Pearl Harbor and is an
gressmen who We're out here. We
never did a better thing than when we
got these Senators and Congressman to
come here and see conditions for them
selves. Every one of them is our friend.
with the improvement and fortifi-
cation of Pearl Harbor will also come
more troops. That is a military GER
tainty. 1t is planned to have four
company post of artillery at the mouth
of the channel on this side. Fort
Shafter is now being enlarged. I do
not doubt that there will be a full
regiment at Leilehua very soon.
The relief map of Oahu, duplicate
of the one in our window here, has
been one of the best things that was
ever sent to Washington. Admiral
Dewey asked for it and kept it for sew
eral hours studying it. This town will
become a brass-button town. Admiral
Pillsbury, the new head of the Bureau
of Navigation, also asked for the re-
lief map to take to a meeting of the
joint board of Army and Navy, which
meets once a week, and a whole ses-
sion was occupied in studying that
map in the light of the defenses of
Oahu. For it must be understood that
it is not merely Pearl Harbor that is
to be fortified, but the whole Island of
Oahu. There win be no stop until
Pearl Harbor is in a position to with
stand any attack. Pearl Harbor is
the only defensible harbor in the Pa
cifc 1t is receiving more military and
naval attention than any other place in
the world that engages the attention
of military and naval men,
