A WICKER-WoRK BOAT.

Rather new departure in lifeboat
practise is one recently constructed by
, Mr.. C. J. F. de Vos of Rotterdam
There is, however, nothing new or un
usual in the model, the new departure
is the adoption of a new material. The
hull is made of cane or plated wicker
work, and the inventor claims many ad-
vantages over other and older forms.
The first advantage is, obviously, its
practically unbreakable character. A
rather severe test was accorded it in a
collision on the River Mas between a
sailing yacht and motor boat. The
violence of the collision was consider
ably mitigated by the wicker lifeboat
being between the two craft, and acted
as sort of buffer. and the only dam
age received was the breaking of the
llfeboat s mast and stays.

Starting with the arrival of the
AriZonan and Mongolia this morning
the week will be a busy one for pilots
and harbormaster. Possibly never be-
fore in the history of the port of Ho-
nolulu will so many large steamers
have entered here. It will tax the
accommodations of the harbor consid-
erably to handle the thirteen boats
which are to arrive and will keep
things humming among the boat boys
until after the departure of the men-of-
war, which viii be due here on the
10th.
Tomorrow the Glacier and Ajax, of
the Auxiliary Fleet are DUE On Wed
nesday the Matson liner Hilonian and
the U. S. S. Arethusa, Panther and
Yankton are expected.
The Korea, from the Orient, due on
the 9th, win probably arrive Wednes-
day also and depart Thursday when
the Observation-Disclosures steamship Tex
and should arrive.
The Relief and Culgoa and Alameda
will be the next for the end of the
week arrivals.
Captain Fuller is getting the different
dimensions of the coming fleet of auxil-
liaries so as to be able to place them

on arrival but will not interfere with
the steamers now about to come,

Transport Takes Many Local
Pe0pIe-No Music
Nor Leis.

The absence of the band and the
presence of but one lei-seller made the
departure of the transport Sheridan
yesterday anything but typical Ho-
nolulu steamer departure. The crowd
was there, the enthusiasm of departure
was in evidence, there were the fond
farewells and tender glances as at all
steamer leavings, but it was noiseless
fume of MALE and the other flowers
which are usually seen in such profu-
sion.
All Honolulu was interested in the
sailing of the Sheridan, as thirty of
the Territory's teachers sailed away in
her for the Coast for their vacation and
to attend the summer school in Cali
fornia. Besides these, several others
well known in the city took passage,
and their friends were present in great
numbers to say goodbye.

TWO TAFT ADMIRERS
ON THE TRANSPORT

The army transport Sheridan from
the Orient and Manila arrived bright
and early yesterday morning She re-
ported herself by wireless when still
some twenty miles away, and entered
the harbor about six o'clock. The big
vessel brought over five hundred pas
sengers, who are going through to San
francisco, and took about fifty from
here, including the school teachers and
some marines and sailors, sailing again
at six last evening for the Coast.
With the exception of piece of the
tail of typhoon and two deaths the
trip over was an uneventful one. the
sea most of the way being as smooth
as the proverbial mill pond and hardly
a breath of wind stirring.
On June % and % the Sheridan fell
in with a bit of wind, which for awhile
caused the great boat to be hove to.
Captain Stinson says the wind was the
hardest he has ever experienced, and
reckons it attained velocity for awhile
of ninety miles an hour Being on the
edge of the storm, the seas were not
as they are In many cases
of blow. The mere force of the wind
stove in one of the starboard lifeboats
and tore it from its fastenings. In get

suit of his injury.
Two deaths of enlisted men, one from
consumption and the other from
Bright's disease, were recorded on the
way from the last port of call, and
both bodies were buried at sea.
1t was thought by the quartermaster
captain here that the Sheridan would
not get away before tomorrow morn
ing, but there being nothing to keep
her she pulled out at six for the Coast.
1t is expected she will arrive in San
Francisco on next Monday morning

THIS WILL BE
A FAIRY CITY
Streets to Blossom With Two
Thousand Incandescent
Lights.

Honolulu is by degrees being turned
into a fairy city. A corps of men are
wiring the principal streets of the city
and making networks of wire round and
about some of the largest buildings, on
which dazzling array of electric lights
will blossom during fleet week.
Never before has such an elaborate
scheme of decorations been attempted
here and when all is finished and the
current is turned on Honolulu will pre-
sent sight worth going a long way
to witness.
Lights have already been strung
along Alakea, Hotel, King and part of
Fort street. There remains to be fin,
ished the waterfront from the iron
works to Fort street, part of Fort
street, and Bethel street.
The Capitol building is completed but
the grounds have still to be wired and
strung with lamps. Four hundred lights
will be put in and around the old fish
market, and the Seaside Hotel is to
have two hundred lamps installed in
readiness for the feet festivities.
So far 1000 incandescents have been
strung along the streets, and this is
exclusive of the Capitol decorations.
Over eight tons of wire will have been
used when the work is completed.
Thirty three men are on the job to-
day and are working hard to finish the
illuminations by Tuesday week. 1t is
probable that general test will be
made next Sunday.
Sunday is the best day for test as
on that day the engines have less de.
mand on them than on any other day
of the week.
The demand for extra electricity is
being met by the combination of the
plants of the Alexander Young Hotel,
Cation, Neill & Co.; Honolulu Iron
Works and the Hawaiian Electric Com
pany In the good cause, each plant
helping out as much as possible in its
own district.
Alexander Young is furnishing his
own electricity for the Illuminating sof
the Young, Hawaiian ana Moana hotels
The general wiring of the city is
being conducted under the supervision |
Of A. Menefoglio, superintendent of the
Hawaiian Electric Co.
A very effective decoration is being
at the headquarters of the |
Rapid Transit Company. Pains are be-
ing taken to make the display unique
and as effective as any other illumina
ton in the city.

SHERIFF IAUkEA To
MEET MINISTERS

The meeting of the Ministerial
Union at Central Union church this
morning promises to be an interesting
session. In addition to the members
of the union, it is stated that there
will be present Sheriff Iaukea anl a
number of representatives of some Of
the leading corporations of the Terri
tory and that the question of the en-
foreement of the Territorial law deal
ing with the social evil will be dis
cussed.
The Sheriff, it is understood, will Law
bare the situation before the CLERGY
and laymen present, explaining that to
carry out the law to its logical con-
clusion viii involve some of the eitv,s
leading business firms, corporation
owners or agents for tenderloin
esperty.
A The police have been WORKING alono
lines looking for the closing down of
the disreputable houses of the citv. and
these lines have led the investigators
into some unexpected quarters.
This whole situation will be discuss.
ed and steps recommended, probably.
that will do much to eliminate the evil
and at the same time 90 away with
unnecessary publicity and the dragging
in of names into the proceedings of
persons personally not in the least re.
sponsible for conditions.

To AVOID TALK
Of DICTAT|ON
R00sevelt'S Tour Abroad BeinQ
Planned to Silence
Criticism.

| According to a recent statement at
tributed to President Roosevelt. on,
of the chief objects in his planning {
tour abroad at the end of his presen
term is to avoid any criticism to tn.
effect that he was debating to Secre
tary Taft-that is, in the event of tht
| latter election. This statement ap
pears in the following article dated al
Washington:
Should President Roosevelt s present
desire be realized he will spend the
first year after his retirement from of
fee in travel outside the United States
Mr.. Roosevelt s itinerary has not been
determined. His plan is to see some of
the rugged and little frequented por-
tions of foreign lands as well as to
travel the beaten tracks of the tourist.
That the President will indulge in his
fondness for hunting big game is be-
lieved by those to whom he has con-
fided his intentions.
1t was at the recent dinner of the
Boone and Crockett Club in this city
that the President@Iast told of his in
tentions for next year. He was told of
the opportunities for hunting in Alaska
and urged to arrange for trip there.
This, he said, would interfere with his
plan for foreign travel, and would have
to be considered, if at all, at some fu-
ture time.
President Roosevelt is quoted as add
ing at that time:
eff William H. Taft is nominated
very gratifying, it would make impos-
sible criticism if / were abroad, to the
effect that I was debating to him, sor.
that I had been debating and had been
turned down in my suggestions. -
Plans for the occupancy the coming
summer of the President s Sycamore
Hill home are under consideration. and
it is expected "the summer capital
at Oyster Bay will be opened for busi-
ness before the. end of June. 1t is the
President s intention to remain at the
White House until the returns from the
Chicago convention have been received,
but it is likely that Mrs. Roosevelt and
the children will be settled in the old
estate before the President reaches
there.
1t is predicted that the usual regime
of "quiet" will prevail at Oyster Bay.
Secretary Loeb is working out the old
plans of keeping the calling list down
to the minimum, and nothing but the
most important business will be allowed |
20 come over the direct White House |
wire and through the special mail pouch |
from Washington.
AS to politics, the President will be
simply an interested Observer and |
will find no cause to make
to Sycamore Hill.
Before the return from the summer IS
uting the President will undoubtedly /
ave prepared his last annual message
o Congress, besides doing many other
important tasks, all of which are made
o fit into his perfected plans of rest
nd recreation.

And. as candy must be classed as a
luxury pure and simple, without any
beneacfaT erect to the community at
large. this Increase Is charactsrlstfc
OF the latter day spirit OF the Amer
lean people.
According to the United States Gems
sus figures the capital invested in
Slle manufacture of confectionery was
ST. 4S6. ST4 in 1880 This had tncfeaS-
ed in 1890 to S22,3264799. IN 1900
to $26,319 .195 and in 1905 to $43,-
125,4OS. The cost OF materials used
have increased from $17,125.7T5 in
1850 TO iS31 ,1d6,629 in 1S9O.s to
$685. 81 !20S In 1900 and to $4S,s10,-

port -the wholesale value of the hnish-
ed product as SIS, $50 33 in 1880. as
$55, 997,1O1 In 1890, as '$60,643 $40
in 1900, and as $s7,OST,253 In 1905.
Thus in COS, the estimate of the or
gan of the trade in placing the
wholesale value of the product at
500. 100000 is conservative. At
the present time there are approx
imately 1900 factories engaged in
this work.
According TO Henry W. Hoops.
President of the National Confect-
toner's Association. people in the
trade figure the average value Of
the finished product, at the factory,
at Is cents a pound. so that the esti-
mate of 100. 100000 for the product
this year would mean an output of
approximately 667.OOo.OOo pounds of
candy. or nearly s 1-2 pounds per
annum for every man, woman and
child in the United States.
The amount of glucose, parrafne.
chep flavoring extracts and various
deIeterious substances used in pro-
ducfng this output can scarcely be
guessed at. According to chemists
and health officials parafftne is used

tent hat the purchasers of chocolate
candies annually treat their digestive
organs to several tons OF candles In
this way When the ingredients CT
large proportion OF the cheaper grade
of candy are considered it will be
seen that the tax on the health
of the nation through the consump-
ton of candy is infinitely greater
even than the tax on the pocket
books of the purchasers.
