SOCIETY LADIES
WILL DANCE WITH
THE bLUEJACKETs
CFrOm Saturdays Advertiser)


Viii the society women of Honolulu
attend ball given for the enlisted men
of the battIeship fleet, asked the Adver-
tiser yesterday, prompted BY a remark
made at one of the reception commit
tee meetings the day before by George
W Smith, a member of the executive
committee Yesterday many society
women OF the city answered the ques-
tiOn, and did so emphatieally. OF course
they would attend such all and dance
with the sailors of Uncle Sam 5 battle
ships Just as freely and graeiousIy as
did the soeety women of Los Angeles
and the members of the exclusive Cali
fornia Club of San Francisco.
This answer was gratifying to the
members OF the entertainment com
mittee, which has worked diligently on
the plans for the grand ball to be given
to the officers at the Moana and Sea
side hotels, and to be followed by an
other for the men. The members of the
committee, which met yesterday morn
ing, did not like the cold blanket thrown
on their plans, and said so, several of
them remarking that the objections
were coming in rather late. In view
of the opposition developing, however,
nothing further in the matter was at
tempted, but the matter viii be def
nitely decided at the next meeting Of
this committee on Wednesday next,
after the heads of committees have talk
ed over all matters and decided on some
definite plan for the weeks doing. This
meeting win be held in the rooms of
the Promotion Committee on Monday
night, and viii be one of the most i'm
portant meetings so far held.

The sailors crowded to the side and
affectionately watched the "old man"
in silence as he slowly and carefully
made his way down the gangway.
Carefully the sailors lifted him into
the waiting launch, and his aids step
ped in after him. There was no cere-
mony. there was no official farewell.
The Admiral was leaving quietly, go
ing to the hotel. and IT was desired TO
get him there as quickly as possible.
That was next 10 his last visit TO the
ship. On Saturday he goes back TO
haul down his flag and that viii surely
be the end.
The launch moved of a few feet. and
gathering headway turned the bow Of
the flagship. Slowly the admiral's flag
came futtering down from the peak.
and quickly the small tyo-starred blue
flag was put up at the bow Of the
launch. As the small boat pointed to-
ward the city wharves. Admiral Evans
turned and looked long and steadily at
his ship.

SAID TO FEEL
LACK OF FUNDS

CHICAGO, Aug. 12.-There has
been sudden falling off in interest
in the Independence party since the
national convention of the organiza-
tion last month, if the dismissal of
clerks in the national headquarters
can be taken as an indication.
Several have been laid off by Secre-
tary Charles A. Walsh and the rumor
was spread today that the good angel
of the party has gone away to some
indefinite part of California and fail
ed to leave behind the key to the
strong box
This alleged lack of funds was de-
MED at headquarters. One of the en-
ployes asserted that request had
been sent to New York to William
Randolph Hearst for funds, which
was made necessary because at the
time Mr.. Walsh and other leaders in
the national headquarters did not
know exactly where Hearst was in
California. No public statement was
made regarding whether there was a
deficit.

FOURTH FURNACE
NOW INSTALLED

SALT LAKE, Aug. 1.-THE fourth
reverberatory furnace installed at
the Garfield smelter of the American
Shelters Securities company has been
placed in commission, thus providing
facilities for the handling of the
great tonnage of ores being directed
toward the big plant out on the south
end of the Great Salt lake. Other
improvements are being made, and it
will not be very long until the COM
pany will be prepared to reduce the
amount of accumulated ores to con-
siderable extent and to take care OF
the ores offered to it for treatment
from all sources.
The Garfield smelter is now treat
ing from 1900 to 1000 tons of ore a
day, and is producing copper at the
rate of 100 tons day, or 5000, 900
pounds month.

SALT LAKERS
ARE MISSING

SALT LAKE, Utah, Aug. 12.-Sat-
urday night party of four, consist
ing of Joshua T. Midgley, manager
of the Badger Coal company; Harvey
Selley, of the government weather
bureau; Joshua Selley and William
Selley left Salt Air beach in mo-
tor boat for tour across Great Salt
Lake with the intention of returning
Sunday night. Since then no trace of
them has been found. Searching par
ties in motor boats have explored the
shore line and islands for miles with
out result, and unless the party
reached shore before the storm which
swept the lake Sunday night, it is
feared their boat was swamped and
the men persisted.

EDISON HAS AN
AIRSHIP scheme


NEW YORK, Aug. 12-Thomas A.
Edison had Henri Farman as his
guest at Edisons home at Orange,
New Jersey, today. With the invita-
ton to visit him Edison sent Farman
! a plan of his new device for lifting
the latter's aeroplane off the ground
to whatever altitude might be chosen
: for its flight, instead of having it run
along the ground as at present before
rising gradually.
The familiarity with flying ma
chimes thus manifested led to the re-
port that Edison was inventing an
aeroplane along new lines, but he
! told Farnam that while he had long
been interested in the subject he had
not time to seriously devoting him.
self to modelling an airship. He en-
couraged Farman to go ahead, and
expressed his willingness to give him
such ideas as he had.
The aeroplanist was greatly i'm
pressed with Edison's gyroscope He
declared that it embodied far better
ideas than the machine which he had
brought from France for his exhibit
tions in this country.

HOT ON TRAIL OF
POSTAL ROBBERS

SANTA CRUZ, Aug. 12.-United
States Postofice Inspectors Madeira
and O'Connor, who were sent from
San Francisco to run down the bur-
glars who looted the Santa Cruz
postotfice Sunday morning, spent last
night and today investigating the
case. Late this afternoon Postmaster
Lincoln reported the loss to be about
$4,000 in coin and stamps of all de-
nominations, principally cents. AS
the strong box was not forced, Lin
coin says the only cash secured was
a quantity of dimes, nickels and cent
pieces stored with the stamps in the
outer apartment of the safe. The
amount contained in registered let
ters and packages cannot be esti-
mated. In their hurry the thieves
overlooked lot of registered outgo-
ing matter, and getting only small
portion of the registered mail just re-
ceived.
The robbers had evidently care
fully planned their work, as they Sc
cured the sledge used in forcing the
locks off the vault doors from a re-
mote blacksmith shop and chose Sat-
urday night, knowing that the en-
ployes are later getting to the office
on Sunday morning than, usually. A
young ex-convict recently liberated
from the state prison is under arrest
as suspect.

STATES EXPENSES
SHOW INCREASE
Exceed Fifteen Million Dollars
for the Fiscal Year
Just Closed
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

SACRAMENTO, July According to
State Controller A. B. Nye, it cost the
state of California $f,334,792.50 more
to run the government for the fiscal
year which ended June 80 than the
year previous. The net expenditure
for the year just ended amounted to
$15.4SS,78a.2S.
That the expenses of the state are
rapidly increasing is shown by the
statement by Nye that ten years ago,
or for the fiscal year of 1898. the
net expenditures were but $S,123, ,503.75.
Within the past 10 years a number Of
new departments have been added to
the state government and have run up
the expenses. Controller Nye says that
while the expenses have increased, the
tax rate has not changed materially.
This is due to two causes; first. the
levy Of new taxes, and second, the in
crease of the assessment roll
During the fiscal year the inheritance
tax produced in round numbers $609,0O0;
the insurance tax. $2s4,00e; the corpora
ton license tax $3.50, 900; the sale of
hunting licenses $4,000; the fees col
lected in the office of the secretary of
state $204.000; motor vehicle licenses
| $4,000. The sales of school books
amounted to $3.50. 900 and the receipts
Of the San Francisco harbor commits
tssion were S1,1S2, 600.
Last years increase of the assess
ment roll over the year before was
nearly S285.000. Notwithstanding the
large expenditures, the state treas
ury is in good condition. The receipts
for the year exceeded the expenditures
by about $4,000. The state has nearly
$4,00O,000 of unused funds on deposit
in about 100 banks. and there is ap-
| proMmately 100000 in cash on hand.
