back is the fashionable cut.
Everything is being done to make the
skirt as clinging as possible. 1t is
long. and it is cut so as to hang in
straight lines.
The sash is a decided feature of
most evening gowns. 1t is made Of
wide satin ribbon, and It falls from
the high empire waist.
Petticoats are mostly sheath fitting.
This effect is produced either by a
shaped yoke at the waist or else by
darts. The tailored silk petticoat Is
the first favorite .-Brooklyn Eagle.

WHY DAN CASE WOULD
NOT SERVE LONGER

AT a recent meeting of the Maui
Board of Supervisors, Chairman Hen
ming asked County Attorney d. H. Case
to stay in office for at least another
month. Mr.. Case stated that he could
not very well do SO and refused to con-
slider the proposition for the reason that
he had been offered retainers in cases
in which he might have to oppose the
county and for him to represent both
sides of case was impossible.
He said there were three reasons
which he might give why he had taken
the step he had and others which he
did not care to mention.
He had made all necessary arrange
ments to resume the practise of the law
and he did not feet satisfied at this
late hour to change his mind.
(2) Mr.. Crockett, personal friend
of his and in whose welfare he was
interested had at the request of friends
this day put in an application for the
position of County Attorney, undoubt-
eddy being of the opinion that he would
not reconsider the position taken and
that he did not feel that it would be
fair to Mr.. Crockett at this time to
reverse his decision.
That it was the general belief among
many good people that Mr.. II. p Bald
win held the Republican party in the
palm of his hand. He said that word
had repeatedly come to him to the effect
that if he did not continue in the of.
fee of County Attorney, Mr.. Baldwin
wanting him there, he might Just as
well pack his worldly belongings and
leave Maui. That he would unques-
tionably continue to be County Attor.
ney as Mr.. Baldwin had not yet met
his figure and remarks of similar ma
ture.
Mr.. Case stated that he did not wish
to continue to be County Attorney and
thus have many who were not familiar
with the facts believe there was truth
in these charges and that he was in
duced to remain by Interior motives.
Another reason given was that he did
not hesitate to say that Mr.. Baldwin
had lamentably fallen short of his duty
in giving moral support to good men
and good measures.
In view of these considerations he
must respectfully decline to reconsider
the matter of resigning
He thanked the board for the many
courtesies shown him.

THE FOURTH IN HAWAII.

The Fourth in Hawaii really falls on
the 9TH, that being the date when her
annexation was secured. She has been
naturalized long enough now, however,
to feel herself $50 the manor BORN
and is prepared to do honor to the
Fourth with as much patriotism as
though she were one of the original
thirteen colonies, going a step further
and continuing the celebration through
the 9TH.
Hawaii has an extra patriotic holt
day in August, called Flag-raising
Day." In addition TO decorations, fire
works and music, the days festivities
usually include procession of native
maids, dressed in white and garlanded
with flowers. Their hair is crowned
with seashells, small American flag
being fastened in front above the fore

NAVAL OFFICERS MUST
PRESERVE SECRECY

NEW YORK, July I'm an order
which is one of the most sweeping ever
issued at the New York Navy Yard
all officers and men employed in the
construction of the new 20,000to bat
tleship whose keel will be laid within
few weeks are forbidden, to give out
any information whatsoever to the
newspapers or to the public.
So strict is the wording of the orders
chat the officers in charge of the de-
partment of construction and repair, to
whom it is particularly addressed, will
not even give the name of the author.
Rear-Admiral Caspar F. Goodrich,
commandant of the yard, is in Wash
ington, and it is believed that the order
had its origin there. One officer did
venture the information that the con
tents of the document would probably
be made public within few days.

IS CALIFORNIA
HOSTILE TO OUR
PlNEAPPLES?

The plan of fumigating pineapples
before shipping them to San Francisco,
instead of having them fumigated af'
ter their arrival there, is not working
out as satisfactorily to the pineapple
growers as it was expected, or at least
as it was hoped it would.
Several shippers by the last Alameda
received notice that some of their ship
ment had been rejected because the
fumigation here had not completely de-
stroyed all insects.
In the past all pineapples were fumi-
gated after arrival in San Francisco,
for which charge of five cents a
crate was made. The pineapple grow.
ers made no objection to the charge.
But few months ago there was a
change in the personnel of the Board
of Horticulture of California, and OBJ
lection began to be made to fumigating
the fruit there. At the same time the
board would not agree to accept the
certifcation of any official or other
person here as to the effectiveness OF
fumigation before shipment The re-
suit was that shippers, fumigating ac'
cordng to the formula given them,
never know whether their fumigation
is going to be accepted as sufficient at
| rot
be insuperable if pineapples found in
effectively fumigated were fumigated
there as in the past, and the usual
charge made for it.
| But it seems from the tenor of the
letters on the subject received by ship
pers by the Alameda, that this is not
to be done; that pineapples found in.
effectively fumigated on their arrival
at San Francisco, are to be rejected,
and not to be fumigated by the Board
of Horticulture, nor to be allowed to
be fumigated there by agents of the
shippers. Instead they are to be re-
jected, and turned back to the trans
portatlon company TO be resmppeu TO
Honolulu. OF course this would mean
the payment of freight both ways on
fruit that would be worthless when it
got back here.
w. B. Thomas one of the Wahiawa
growers said in regard to the matter
that he had received, letter by the
1
Alameda indicating that a part of one
of his shipments had been rejected. 1t
was not sent back by the Alameda, but
presumably it has either been destroyed
or is held for shipment back by the
next Alameda.
"The first shipment fumigated
here,' said Mr.. Thomas, CATER the
new order was put in vogue, was com.
plimented by Mr.. Bhrhorn, the inspec-

Arrangements for the reception of
the American fleet are approaching
completion. Wellington and Auckland
will be deliberately decorated. The

bers TO participate in the welcome. The
geyernment will entertain from 10000
81 $1,000 men daily, including the
s. ews of the British feet. American
nd British officers to the number of
20 will be guests at an Official ban

Ebther entertainments. AT the recep-
Ftion to the officers the presentation of
"A casket will be made containing ad-

In Parliament yesterday Senator
Wilfrid deprecated the entertainments
on the ground that the tariff and navi-
cation laws of the United States are
hostile to this country. The Yelling
ton Post today strongly condemns the
Senator's advocacy of what it calls
-such gross international discour-
tesy," and contends that the visit is
welcome because it will promote closer
knowledge and better understanding.
