STOWAWAY FOR
THREE LONG DAYS

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 3---Pedro
Fajpmera and Isaac Villannewa, Filipi-
no stowaways, after having hidden in
the coal bunkers for three days on the
transport Crook, which arrived yester-
day, were driven by hunger from con-
eealment. They came on deck and an
noGnced their willingness to be put to
work. Both were bright lads, having
gone TO the public school at Honolulu,
and they paid for their voyage by
shoes, cleaning decks and wait
ing on table
The Filipinos sneaked on board the
transport while it lay at Honolulu, and
concealed themselves in the coal bunk
ers, where they remained for three
days. before hunger compelled them
to come forth. They were covered
from head to foot with coal dust, and
caused a scare among the lady passen-
gers as they bashfully sided down the
deck in the sunshine. After being
given a bath they were put to work.
Pedro and Isaac say they have been
companions for years. Having heard
of the great outside world they want
ed to see it. Pedro has an uncle in San
Francisco and thought it would be
good idea to give him a surprise. They
were allowed to land.

TOWN HALL QUESTION.
A citizens meeting was held at the
Waikiki court house Tuesday and
Thursday evenings to hear the offer
of the superintendent of Public Works
to give the free use of the old court
house to the citizens of Waikiki for
town hall. A large number of people
were preset. Rev. ]. Nua was elect
ed chairman and Charles Wilcox sec
rotary
]. W. Kalua stated that the trustees
of Kaahumanu church. of which he
was a member, had never offered to
lease the premises to the citizens OF
Wailuku but they were willing to give
the free use of the same for county
park free of charge to the county su-
pervisors of the County of Maui with
the understanding that the old court
house was to be moved on the site
and they We're to be allowed the use
of the building when so desired for
their meetings. A committee consist
ing of Moses Kauhimahu and l. NJ
Baldwin was appointed to see what
the county board would do in the
matter.
Moses Kauhimahu reported on
Thursday that he and [. NJ Baldwin
had called on the county board and
had secured from them the promise
that they were willing to appropriate
sufficient funds to move the building
over on to the site offered by the
church trustees but We're not willing
20 act as a committee who would have
control of the building. The super
visors made if clear that the building
and grounds must be for the free use
of the public or else they could not
have anything to do with it.
When the matter of selecting the
committee came up Rev. Mr.. Nua ad-
dressed the meeting and stated that
the trustees Of the church bad held a
meeting at the residence of J. W. Ka-
lua on Monday evening and had de-
cided that they must have a majority
of the committee which is to have con-
troll of the building and grounds. The
majority Of the committee must be
selected BY the trustees of the church.
H. NJ. Coke of the News pointed out
that this demand on the part of the
trustees Of the church might cause the
whole scheme to fall through for the
reason that it might be felt that the
building and grounds were in reality
in the hands Of the church trustees
and not at all necessarily public in
stitution, for which reason neither the
Superintendent of Public Works nor
the county board could assist the com
mittee
1t was finely decided to make the
committee consist OF FIVE members and
]. y. K. Keola and L. n. Baldwin
were selected as the two members for
the citizens which were to meet with
the majority of the committee of the
church trustees.

Question.

WAILTKU, February 15.-At a meet
ing of the Board of Supervisors of the
County of Maui, report Of the treas
urer on his trip to Honolulu in con-
nection with the bond issue was read.
The banks of Honolulu were not in
clined to take any of the bonds, as the
money stringency has made the inter-
est on loans much higher than the
bonds called for. There was a ques-
ton, to-, as 10 whether the act was a
legal one and until the legal question
was cleared by the Supreme Court no
one would think of advancing any
money on the issue. It was estimated
that the cost of having the bonds
printed and duly certified would be
not less than $500.
G. D. Lufkin, cashier of the First
National Bank of Waikiki, offered to
take $4,000 of the bonds at ninety-eight
provided the matter of the legality of
the bond issue was entirely cleared up
and provided that the board would give
him an option on the rest of the issue
or 100000 more.

CHANGED HIS MIND.

A few months ago the County of
Hawaii was anxious to secure strip
of land to complete a road near the
postofice at Kalapana. The land be-
longed to L. H. Haaheo who was ask
ed to name a price at which he would
sell the land to the county, lie did
SO and the County Attorney recon-
mended that the offer be refused as
the price was exorbitant, equal to 217
cents per square foot for lava rock.
The deputy tax assessor got out his
returns to see Mr.. Haaheo's sworn
value of the land for tax purposes.
There was evidently discrepancy
somewhere for the two values did not
agree. Mr.. Haaheo was notified that
there would be an immediate change in
the amount of his taxes. This made
Haaheo do some thinking and he wrote
letter to the Board of Supervisors
in which he stated that he had asked
the county to pay the exorbitant price
Of 211z cents per square foot for right
of way, but he now begged the Board
to take the land as a gift for the
benefit and welfare Of the people of
the county and of the district of
puma . The gift was duly accepted
with thanks and Clerk Pua was direct
ed TO arrange for the transfer Of the
land. In the meantime tax assessment
quotations remain normal at Kalapana.

DERELIcT POLICEMAN.

There has recently been a change in
the membership of the Honokaa police
force. One of the brave and vigilant
arrested two offenders of the public
peace and morals, taking s75 bail from
them. He then proceeded to the house
of friend where, it is stated, he
imbibed once and more frequently. Be
ing tired after his unwonted official
duty he fell asleep. Later, he awoke
but the SIS bail money was gone, so
the officer decided to make another ar
rest and, to make sure of his prisoner,
arrested and handeuffed his friend.
Then the guardian of the peace took
another drink and another sleep.
While he slu1nbered the couple who
gave the bail made up with the Of
Tended Territory of Hawaii by get
ting married The next act revealed
the officers latest captive, unattended,
but still handeuffed as security for the
missing seventy-fve, wandering into
the jail and asking to be relieved of
his bracelets. AS the bail money was
not diseoverable. friends and relatives
of the officer made it good.

whether air castles remain to be seen.
At its meeting last night it spent I'M

things over.
Mayor Grimm told the council
about an electric plant and system
being in prospect, but did not inform
the sages as to who are behind the
movement. The plant is to be sort of
perpetual motion affair, as the mayor
said all that would have to be done
would be to start it of evenings and
close it down of mornings
Another matter under considera-
tion is the proposed purchase of the
old school lot for town home site.
hut 1t turns out the town has no
money for the purchase.
Still another matter that took up
their time was deeply desired water
works and sewerage system.
About the. only thing really done
at the meeting was the allowance of
"a few small bills.
