There are twenty-five million gallons
of water in the new Nuuanu reservoir
and more millions are pouring into it
from the saturated hillsides and the
Lulumahu stream. The latter is run
ming stream through the recently
dug ditch four feet wide and fourteen
inches deep, two million gallons in
twenty-four hours. Below. in reser-
voirs one, two and three, are more mil
lions of gallons, all the result of the
good soaking rain that fell in Nuuanu
on Wednesday and yesterday.
Marston Campbell, while delighted
at the breaking of the drought, is just
trifie sorry that he did not get a
chance to smash rain cloud with a
bomb. This is the only cloud on his
horizon while the Nuuanu clouds
gather and spill.
Yesterday there were things doing
at the dam Contractor Wbitehouse
was on the job at daylight oiling up
his pumps, and when the starting whis-
tie blew he had everything in readi-
ness to turn his hydraulic stream
against the sluicing bank. All day the
stream tore into the red earth and all
day the fumes ran brimming with their
loads for the fill. There the bank
commenced to grow, the water bring
ing down the material in such guam
titles that "you could see the dam
growing before your eyes as the Su-
perintendent of Public Works de-
scribes it.
The sluicing is taking million gal
Ions of water day, the quantity be-
ing kept down to that limit because
the drainage from the fill is being run
into a big sump and used over and over
again. The amount used represents the
waste. The use of this sump has a
double purpose. Not only does it econ
on1ize the water in the reservoir, but
it leaves it clean from the rolling of
the sluicing operations, clean and ready
to be run into the city mains.
The use of the word clean, in this
particular, is comparative just at pres
ent, because the reservoirs Of the
whole system were so low when the
waters started to come on Wednesday
that the supply was muddied up. This
will settle within day or so, but at
present the taps run red.
The rain in Nnuanu was good one.
It came just right. The first slow
drizzle soaked up the surface soil and
left it ready for the runoff when the
big rain came Now the whole water
shed is saturated and with the ordi-
nary Nuuanu showers the water sup
ply in the reservoirs will be sufficient
to keep the city supplied and allow
the sluicinp work on the construction
to go on from now without any further
interruptions.
So far as the reservoir bank itself is
the drought has not been an
altogether bad thing. The big earth
pile, was allowed to dry out and the
sun baked it until it was almost brick
like in its consistency. 1t shrank and
hardened and settled until it was al
most impossible to drive pick IN 1t,
and this improves the work immense
lv. Now that the rains have come,
the drought help to the dam can be
talked about cheerfully.

of the campaign, several hundred vot-
ers listening to the speakers and stay
ing out one or two little showers that
drifted down from Nuuanu. 1t was
political crowd, number of prominent
party men being in the listeners seats,
while the interest shown was evidenced
by the retorts and questions that came
out of the darkness toward the speak
ers' stand. One drunken man in the
front row, Jesse Makainai, ex-Repre-
sentative. interrupted conspicuously
and noisilv until he was ealmed down
by the police. Then he subsided and

HAWA||ANS ARE
WELL SATISFIED
Pleased With Board of Health S
New PoIicy-.-Waiting Word
From Washington.

Governor Frear has received many ex-
pressions of opinion, oral and written,
from Hawaiians regarding the new
policy of the Board of Health, adopt.
ed on Tuesday last, and without ex-
ception the opinions favor the new
ideas advanced This is decidedly sat
isfactory, inasmuch as there was no as
surance that the policy would not be
regarded on first thoughts by the ma
iority of the Hawaiians as something
antagonistic, something tending to
transfer the care of the leper station
and the leprosy patients over to Fed
eral control An afternoon paper, IN
it's review of the news given in the
Advertiser, gave prominence to the
Federal side of the question and ask
ed: "Will Territorial officials be sup
planted by Federal physicians in the
work being done Ter the lepers at the
Molokai settlement"
r'There is nothing in this at all, -
said Governor Frear yesterday, answer
ing the question. InSfe Is TO DC
nothing surrendered to the Federal
physicians of the rights of the Terri
torial Board of Health, but the Fed
eral physicians will be given the oppor,
tunity to extend their research WORK
to Honolulu and cooperate with the
Territorial physicians.
;'I do not wish it understood in any
thing that I may have said in this
torial physicians have done nothing.
everything that was possible at the
settlement, but there has not been the
continuity or eomprehensiveness in the
work of treatment that we want. The
matter of treatment has not been gone
into as exhaustiyely or thoroughly as
we will do now The Territory has
not had trained specialists and scient-
lists devoting their whole time to the
investigation into the causes of the
disease nor making the treatment and
study of the disease the primary thing.
Neither have we so arranged matters
that these Investigations could be made
here except as preliminary to sending
the patients to the settlement.
81 do not want to depreciate what
has been done by our Board of Health
physicians, but we have heretofore not
had the money to carry out the treat
ment as we desire and as the Federal
physicians can do. We are now putting
every facility possible at the disposal
of the Federal investigators and they
will probably begin their systematic
work here just as soon as thev receive
word from Washington that they may
use part of the appropriation voted
for the carrying on of the investigation
at Molokai to carrying on part OF
their Investigations here Permission
to so use a part of the appropriation
has already been asked from Washing
ton.
F'I do not see what there can be in !
the new policy to alarm the Hawai- |
ians. Tt is exactly along the lines of
the policy they have been advocating. !
So far every expression of opinion / |
have had from the Hawaiians has been |
in favor of the resolution of the !!
Board. -

"When [ got back to Honolulu from
Denver, my ears rang with vote for
this man. Don't vote for that man,

it is a policy I viii oppose with my

Early in his speech at Aala Park
last night, Frank Harvey startled his
hearers with the above words, causing
a sensation with them and with the
roast he gave the advocates of the
color-line policy and ticket. When he
first began to speak on the subject he
was greeted with hot and angry re-
torts from the crowd. but before he
was through he had his objectors ST.
fenced. until, at the conclusion of the
address he was warmly applauded His
was speech dangerous for a politician
to make at this particular time. but
he stood up bravely aad denounced the
color-llne advocates as enemies of their
own race. The address, which was the
first one following the opening remarks
of g. j. Waller, national committee
man, who presided, gave the keynote to
the ratification meeting, several of
those who followed him speaking in a
like strain.
There was a fair attendance at the
park at last night 's meeting called by

WE'D DING RING
FOR CHAMBER
Local Kings OF Commerce In
vited to Compete For
Trinket.

at the meeting of the Chamber Oh
Commerce yesterday, President Nor
gan, wearing, among other things, a
broad smile, presented a letter from
California accompanying a plain gold
wedding ring, photograph and card
The letter was signed by nice old
lady in San Pedro and the ring was to
be given to the first member of the
Chamber of Commerce marrying an
American girl. Evidently the donor
felt that the chamber needed some
civilizing and Christianizing influence.
The letter reads as follows:
<fTo the Chamber of Commerce of Ho-
nolulu.
CT extend my greeting and ask that
this wedding ring be given to the first
one of your members who may choose
an American bride. May the blessing
of God and good and love be and abide
with you.

side vote was then taken that Mr..
Pfotenhauer, in view of his interest in
the ring, should supply case of fzz-
water to fill, many times over, the low
ing cup recently received from the San
Pedro Chamber of Commerce. This
cup. according to correspondence be-
tween Secretary Wood and the San
Pedro people. was intended for the
local Chamber of Commerce, but in
some way the inscription included an
other local organization. The inscrip-
ton will undoubtedly be changed. The
cup was sent to commemorate the
growing union of interests of San
Pedro and Honolulu through the Trans
pacific yacht race.
President Morgan exhibited a fine
old ealabash. on the side of which was
a silver plate inscribed as follows:
"To Hawaii's Good Friend,
Gorham D. Gilman,
From
The Honolulu Chamber of Commerce,
July 4, 1908.'
This is the token of appreciation
tiOn of the good work done in Boston
and on the Eastern Coast by the vet
eran kamaaina.
1t was decided to get out an annual
report of the Chamber of Commerce,
to include, besides the list of officers,
meetings, etc, some valuable articles
on Hawaii. its resources, ETC., by off,
cials of the Territory, both Territorial
and Federal. and the best writers on
specialized subjects. 1t win be full of
exact and valuable information, and it
is intended that copies shall be sent
to other chambers, Libraries and pro-
motion committees.
It was decided to hold the annual
meeting on August 10 at p. nj. The
president was authorized to appoint
nominating committee to propose
names for officers TO be voted upon at
the next meeting.

TOOLS OF DEATH FOUND IN RUINS
Evidence Indicates that Mrs. Guiress
Used Cold Steel on Victims.

Laporte, Ind, May 13-The
mining" operations which have
been promised by Sheriff SmulZer
for several days started in earnest
yesterday in the ruins of the Guin-
ness home. Louis Schultz, who was
employed by Sheriff Smulzer to
sluice the ashes in the cellar, COM
pleted his apparatus early and began
work yesterday.
Additional evidence regarding the
methods by which persons whose
corpses were found on the Guinness
farm met their death was unearthed
yesterday. Almost two dozen pairs
of scissors, bent and curved in the
fashion of surgical instruments, are
said to have been found in the
ashes in the cellar, and in addition
three knives, two of surgical char
acter and another an unmistaka BILE
dirk, were picked up. In the absence
of evidence to the contrary it is be-
lieved the dirk may have been the
chief weapon employed in the series
of murders which has brought noto-
riety to the farm. An expert hand
could easily have slipped the snake
like weapon between the ribs of the
victims and penetrated their hearts.

| RAIN COMES DOWN IN TORRENTS s
Heaviest Precipitation Of the Season
Visits Ellis County.

1t rained and it poured and then
rained some more.
The precipitation which visited
Ellis county Tuesday evening was
the heaviest of the season
The local observers rain guage
registered two and onehalf inches.
The clouds began assembling in
battle array late in the afternoon
and tongues of forked, zig-zag. hori-
zontal and perpendicular lightning
shot athwart the heavens. Shortly af
ter six O'Clock the rain began fall
ing and at times the downpour was
quite terrific. Storm sewers and gut
ters were taxed to their utmost ca
pacity to carry off the water, ard it
was not long until Waxahachie
creek was bank full. A light wind
from the southwest accompanied the
rain
So far as reports indicate the
rain was general over the county,
and in some sections crops were
badly damaged by the land wash
ing, At Il o'clock Wednesday, the
county commissioners, who are in
session here, stated that
no reports of damaged bridges had
been made to them. Joe Jarrett, who
is constructing cement piers under
a steel bridge on Red Oak creek,
said he lost some lumber by reason
of the high water.
