over route to be selected later.
Tickets for the trip were issued
on the same plan as those used in
railroad travelling, and the fare is
identical with that charged by the
standard railways to the delegates
who prefer travelling by rail. These
tickets will be countersigned by the
mayors of the various towns through
which the delegates pass.
This is the first time in the his
tory of American transportation that
automobiles have been utilized for
long distance passenger service in
competition with trunk line rail-
roads, and Committeeman Sullivan S
selection of this novel method of
travel for his delegates is a prece-
dent. The touring cars which will
compose the train each will seat
seven passengers, and are built on
the same type of chassis as that of
the war message car, which recently
made an arduous trip with army
dispatches from New York to Fort
LeavenWorth, Kan.

American Commissioners VIII Spend
Several Weeks in Paris.
Washington, June 26.-When the
Vaderland sails from New York to-
morrow it will have as passengers
the members Of the American COM
nilsson chosen to confer with a SIM
liar committee appointed by France
to draw up new reciprocity treaty
between the two countries. James b.
Reynolds, assistant secretary of the
treasury, is chairman of the Amer
lean committee.
On reaching Paris, the commission
will begin Immediately their series
OF conferences with the French COM
mission. Mr.. Reynolds recently re-
quested that all persons having COM
mercial intercourses between this
country and France favor the COM
mission with suggestions in the in
terest Of trade-expansion. Circulars
bearing on the subject were sent to
the chief commercial and trade
bodies of the country. Many helpful
replies have been received, and much
data of useful character in franz
Ing new treaty is at hand.
While no attempt will be made by
the American commission to drive a
hard and fast bargain with France.
1t is understood that many conces-
sions now desired by business inter-
ests will be sought.
French wines, works of art, china
ware and manufacturers generally
will figure prominently in the new
treaty. The commissioners probably
will remain abroad three months.

Illinois Delegates Will Make The
Trip in Automobiles.


Chicago, June 26.-Four touring
automobiles, loaded with Illinois del
egates to the Denver democratic con-
yention, with baggage car to bring
up the rear, will constitute the queer
caravan which will leave Chicago to-
morrow for the mile high" city.
Roger C. Sullivan, national demo-
cratic committeeman from Illinois, is
the originator and promoter of the
scheme.
The trip will be made by easy
stages, as on account of the num-

a day.
One of the most important stops
will be made at Lincoln, Neb., the

parent to the democratic nomination,
who will hold a reception for the
visiting delegates. After leaving Chi

THE DENVER CONVENTION HALL
Building in Which Bryan VIII Be
Nominated Is About Ready.

Denver, Colo, June 26.-Denyer' S
mammoth auditorium, in which the
democratic national convention will
| be held, is now almost ready and its
| doors will be formally thrown open
-, tomorrow. Over a half million dol
| lars have been expended in the con-
struction of the monster edifice, with
| the result that Denver now has one
of the best buildings in the land for
entertaining vast assemblages. Over
1850 people can be comfortably
seated within its walls, giving it a
larger seating capacity than the Col
iseum in Chicago, where the repub-
lican convention was held, or Madi-
son Square Garden in New York A
perfect heating and ventilating sys-
tenn and numerous exits, allowing
the building to be emptied within
most perfectly adapted halls of it's
kind in the world.
Arrangements for the democratic
convention are now nearing compile
ton. A platform and rostrum occu-
pies the west side of the auditorium
with the seats for the delegates and
alternates extending along the floor
of the stage proper. Upon the plat
form will be 445 seats, which will be
! he har r,f
tional committee and for the guests
of honor. The number of seats on
the rostrum will be 101.
Seats for the delegates in front of
the rostrum are arranged nearly in
the centre of the building. The num-
Der of seats is 1,005 and immediate
ly behind this section are the seats
of the alternates, also ,005 in num-
Der.
The main entrance is on Curtis
street. On this side Will be 1913
seats for the general public. The
same plan prevails at the opposite
end of the building, where 826 seats
will be reserved for the general pub
lie Back of these sections and also
along the Fifteenth street side of
the building are boxes with a total
capacity of 544 seats. In addition
there will be seating space for zoo
people more at the Curtis and
Champs street ends of the structure.
The front rows in the balcony and
gallery will be reserved for the fam
lilies of the delegates, alternates and
convention officers, The actual seat
ing capacity of the balcony will be
3,626 and of the gallery 1889.
The auditorium is constructed
without pillars or posts to obstruct
the view, and the acoustic properties
are so perfect that a speaker can be
heard from any part of the building.
The auditorium is freproof, no
wooden material of any sort being
used in its construction, even the
sashes in the windows and the lath
being of iron.
A band of music will be stationed
in each balcony. A signal wire viii
be run from each band stand to the
desk of the sergeant-at-arms, so that

fully and kept out of the sun. Plates

does away with passing the food from

to the other. Paper napkins are good
enough for the average outdoor func-

ever, be supplied in quantities so that

Proper Arrangement and Packing OF

Too much luggage spoils the picnic,

time have it look tempting?
There is a hamper made OF light
weight wicker and yet strong enough
to stand the wear of many outings in
the woods.
A telescope shape is easy to handle
and its size can be regulated to mt
the contents so readily that the wom-
an who thinks ahead and of the par

instead of the square or OblOng hamp-
er made after the fashion of the Eng
lish tea basket.

glasses are superior in many ways to
leather ones. The lighter covering
may not wear so well as the others.
but it looks much cooler. Hamper
fittings can be bought separately and
tucked away in a plain basket, and II
well packed no danger of breakage
need be feared.
Wooden plates are really much
more picnicky than china. If sand

HAMAKUA DITCH
CHANGES NAME
Will Be the Hawaiian lrriga-
tiOn Company After
This.

The Hamakua Ditch Company has
cation Company, Ltd. The approval
of the change was one of the last Of
fetal acts performed by Governor
Frear before leaving the Territory, the
papers being brought down to him on
the transport Crook to be signed.
The change is made at the suggestion
of the London syndicate that is to take
up the bonds of the company, and the
reason for asking it is that in their
opinion the bonds will sell better to
English investors if they are the bonds
of company the name of which means
something to them, than if the name
means nothing to them, as the name
Hamakua, does mean little or nothing
to people as far away as England.
The action of the company was taken
yesterday afternoon and the papers
were not made out until the business
part of the day was well along. They
were brought up to the Capitol by c.
F. Clemons of Thompson Clemons
where the changes were approved BY
the Treasurer and the Attorney General.
The several copies of the document
were all carefully compared in the of
fee of the Registrar of Public Accounts.
and just a few minutes before the
transport Crook sailed they were taken
aboard for the Governor s signature.
He had been apprised of the fact that
hey were being prepared for his sigma

MOTT-SMITH IS
ACTING GOVERNOR
Governor Frear Plans Work
During the Voyage to
Coast.

Governor Frear left the Capitol
shortly after four clock yesterday af-
ternoon ready to sail for Washington.
a.He had held his final conferences with
leads of departments. All matters that
nave come up that are likely to need
attention before he returns, had been
considered and referred to appropriate
officials to be dealt with during his alb
sence. His desk was cleared up.
Carefully prepared memoranda have
been aeeumulating SLring the weeks
that the Governor has been preparing
for this trip and there preceded him to
the transport an abundance of data and
material in the shape of carefully pre-
pared tabulation, or as carefully pre-
pared statements of facts and deserip-
tlOns in regard to the various matters
which he expects to deal with while
away. Governor Frear expects to do
a good deal of work ON the voyage up,
and he went prepared with the material
to work with. Private Secretary Me-
Bride went along with his typewriter
to aid the Governor. During the six or
seven days spent on the ocean, Govern
or Frear expects to prepare great
many matters which he has not had
time to prepare before starting. The
land laws viii receive his attention and
he expects to prepare a number of
amendments to the public land laws for
presentation to Congress. These will
Abe along the lines suggested in the re-
port of the Advisory Land Law Com
mission. In fact that report followed
not very far off, in most things, from
policies that Governor Frear had al
ready given his approval to.
Other matters which will engage his
attention in Washington viii be the
effort to secure the extension to Hawaii
of the benefits of the laws in relation
to reclamation, photographic, tcpo-
graphic and soil surveys.
Mr.. Newell who, with his wife, sailed
on the Crook, has been very busy the
last week or two in preparing his re-
port on his visit TO Hawaii. This is
well under way, but is not completed |
yet. He took with him aboard the |

SALVATIONISTS
WANT BUILDING
Colonel Miles of the Salvation
Army Appeals to Local
Business Men.

Colonel Charles Miles of the Saliva
ton Army talked to the representative
business men of Honolulu yesterday af-
ternoon in the Chamber of Commerce
rooms and, in the parlance of the pave
ment, he made very decided hit.
The essence of the Colonel's talk
was "You can t get away from the
Salvation Army because we are every
where and the Salvation Army is not
only necessity but is coming to be
the solver of great social problems. -
R. H. Trent introduced Colonel Miles.
and said: F'It does not matter where
you go you will find the Salvation
Army there before you. All over the
world, even in Korea, their uniform is
seen and the grand work that these
militant workers and relievers of suffer
ing do is known to all of you. Colonel
Miles viii speak to you of his expert
ence in Salvation Army work and, I
hope, will touch on the subject of i'm
migration. I would also draw your
attention to one point in connection
with Salvation Army officers that is
not generally known, their pay is ex-
tremely small and officers of high stand
ing in this Army receive less pay than
non-eommissioned officer in a fight
ing army"
Colonel Miles is an FuUIishman nv
birth and has very clear voice and
pleasing diction. He spoke shortly but
very much to the point and his talk
was listened to with keen Interest by
the roomful of business men present.
The idea which Colonel Miles tried
to convey was that the Salvation Army
is ubiquitous and is doing grand work
and that their work should be aided in
every way possible by the citizens of
Honolulu. He said that they needed
a permanent home very badly and that /
they had an option on very desirable |
business site with a suitable building
thereon for $4,000. He wanted to !
know if the merchants of Honolulu |
would back the Army up in the pro-
position and help out by subscribing |
sufficient to enable them to purchase |
this land and building.
F'The Salvation Army" said Colonel |
Miles, "has become an absolute neces- |

The progress Of the lightships has
been watched with much interest by

presents elements of risk much greater
than those under which the battleship

cruise, travelled.
