HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC
WILL DOUBLEl'PLANT

At meeting of the board of directors
of the Hawaiian Electric Company yes
terday it was decided to double the
canacity of their present plant. For
some time the machinery at the plant
has been loaded to it's capacity and as
the business has been constantly in
creasing it was necessary to take some
action in order to get the new unit in
stalled before the beginning Of the next
Christmas heavy lighting. They de-
cided to install a Parsons Westinghouse
steam turbine of $50 kilowatts capacity,
together with all necessary condensing
annaratus. air pumps, circulating pump
and steam superheater. This viii be
the first steam turbine ever introduced
into these islands for stationary work
and represents the latest practice for
generating current in central stations
and much interest has been expressed
by local engineers.
The nominal capacity of the new ma
chine will be 1925 H. P. at full lo@d. but
these machines are capable of a very
heavy overload and the maximum ca
pacity will be 1900 H. P.
This is the second large Improvement
the electric company has undertaken
this wear. as they are now installing
additional ice tanks of a capacity OF
sixteen tons per day, and have built
a new boiler house and rearranged their
boilers. and erected new boiler settings.
These changes will result in more
economical operation and the addition
of the experimenting plant and turbine
will enable them to approximately
double their DreSent load.
There are few cities in the United
States of the size Of Honlulu Where
electricity is so universally used Tor
lighting as in Honolulu and the con-
slant increase in the business OF the
electric company would seem to retute
the idea that the population of Homo
lulu is decreasing.

Finding his revolver useless, Chaeng
rushed in with a snarl of anger and
smashed the weapon in Stevens face.

blood pouring from his face, but, re-
covering himself in an instant, he

The suddenness of the shot brought
the crowd to an instant stand. There

Our 1908 Easter Cards

zz=zz.-s-@ g ~ acM
we are now displaying one of the
handsomest lines of Easter Cards this
season that has ever been offered to
the trade. These are cut out crosses
in a variety of shapes, decorated with
spring flowers. angels, and illuminated
texts. The folders are shown in many
styles, exauisitely colored and design
ed. One of the daintiest is a series of
ten designs with delicate green bor-
ders and green palm leaf cross with a
few flowers in the center. The in
scription inside is printed in colors and
gold.
Among the novelties there are cut
out rabbits that have moving eyes,
and also large hen sitting ON bas-
ket with holes in it, behind which is
a moving card showing chickens peep
ing out through the holes. Among the
cunningest cards for the children are
little cut out chicks all dressed in their
Easter finery.
Out of town customers would do well
to order early.

AN OLD NEWSPAPER MAN
Will Appear on the Y. M. c.
A Lecture Course.
The Man Whose Wit and Humor
Have Stirred Millions to Laughter
will Tickle the Public's Ribs.

Strickland, w. Gillian, the Balti-
more American man, is slated to ap-
pear on the local Y M. G. A. Lee
ture Course on next Thursday night.
'Gillilan hoists the fun signal and
turns loose the laugh sacks in the
physical anatomy to. remarkable ex-
tent. He is the man whose lines have
been running in Judge, Success, and
other magazines and they are always
full of humor and fun. Just stand
aside and Watch Yourself Go By"
|'She Felt of Her Belt at the Back"
"Finnigan," FThe Girl-Child" and doz-
ems of other humorous poems, MIN
gled with delicate blending of pathcs
and good solid advice.
Mr.. Gillilan's newspaper work is
what has put him on litertary easy
street where he now resides, starting
from the backwoods farms which
gives the rural touch to this mans
stage appearance today, possibly, he
toiled his way through college and
finally reached that high calling to
the editorship of country news
paper, which is one of the big respon-
sible positions in the country-to the
editor himself. While holding the
responsibility of his first editorial
position, he began sending some OF
his fits of foolishness to New York
funny papers. II hasn't been so many
years since, but Gillian's verses have
found their way to every newspaper
In the country. In addition to news
paper work he is now giving consider
able time to the lecture platform be-
cause as he says, !since the people
had shown keen appreciation for
his verses in print II struck him
that hey might like to hear him read
them himself
Mr.. Gillian does not lay claim
to beauty as one of his personal at
fractions but the lecture course man.
|agement assure all that they will soon
forget the awkward, gawky appear
ance OF the speaker who, at first sight,
would seem to be more at home In a
pair of over-alls than dress suit.
|Gillllan's subjects, Sunshine and
Awkwardness" and "A Sample Case
of Humor" are thoroughly character
istic OF the speaker. Doubtlessly
the Sample Case of Humor" was
picked up during the lecturers exper-
fences with sleeping cars of which he
tells so eloquently and humorously.

a number of dogs were caught kill

Iof farmers soon gathered to the res

was followed to this city and a num-

The farmers are using nearly every
