Steamship Company the steamships So

is any truth in the story, but it is be-

COLLAPSE Of
MOLTEN LAKE
Magnificent Sights Seen at the
Crater---Lava Rises
Again.
(Staff Correspondence

HILO, Hawaii, September 7.-on
Friday afternoon last an earthquake
shock of unusual force was felt in Hilo
and that evening the boiling lava in
Halemaumau began to pour out in a
fiery whirlpool through the bottom of
! the frepit. On Saturday afternoon
Fanother shock came to the Big Island
metropolis and that night it was re-
ported from the Volcano House that
the volcano was again active and the
molten lake was rising. Whatever con-
nection there may have been between
thei two shocks and the subsistence and
breaking out again of the volcano can
only be spoken of authoritatively by
scientists, but the two affairs were very
generally commented upon by Hiloites
yesterday.
At the time of writing, the reports
from the volcano are that its activities
have recommended on grand scale,
but there was mourning here on Satur-
day night when the word passed around
that the volcano was pau. In Hilo
there are people who have never seen
the volcano, just as in Honolulu there
are many who do not know where the
Bishop Museum nor the Aquarium are,
and like many Honolulans again. there
were many here who intended to visit
the scenes at Halemaumau but who
were putting off the trip until some
other convenient time and the idea that
the volcano had not awaited their con-
venience and that Madame Pele has
gone into hole and pulled the hole
in after her, with all her fires, came
as a shock. For this reason it is prob
able that the stream of visitors to XII
lauea viii be large from now on, al
though the spectacle is not what it has
been for the past several weeks.
The sight of the sinking of the fire
in Halemaumau, as described by those
who watched. is said to have been ter
ribly magnificent. George Fairchild
and his wife are two of those who
stood awe-struck on che edge of the
pit and watched Madame Pele in her
fiery retreat Mr. Fairchild said:
son Thursday night the level of the
lava had reached a point less than
hundred feet l should Judge below the
level of the main crater floor. Old
faithful geyser spouted its fiery flow

THE FIRST BLAST Of
ROCK FOR BREAKWATER
(Staff Correspondence

HILO, Hawaii, September Wed
nesdsy of last week was a red letter
day for Hilo for on that day, back in the
Puma district was fired the first blast
on the Lyman quarry for the rock for
the Hilo Breakwater. This blast con-
sisted of three tons of dynamite, and
while the noise was muffled and the
sounds of the explosion failed to carry
far in the muggy, damp air, yet the
effect of the explosion was felt all over
Hilo. The work on the Breakwater,
which is to give Hilo the finest harbor
on the Pacific and stir it into life, had
really commenced and the satisfaction
could be seen on every eountenance up
and down Waianuenue avenue.

.MOANA AND
SEASIDE DANCES.
Officers and Men Make Merry
Beside the Moonlit
Surges.

Last evening the officers of the Pa
cifc feet and the matrons and debu-
.tantes of Honolulu had opportunity to
meet at an invitational ball given at
, the Moana Hotel. The function was
informal and pleasurabie in every way.
From 8 o'clock until long after mid
night the guests two-stepped and waltz
ed and had a merry time.
1t was gathering of the fashionable
women of Honolulu to display beautiful
gowns and frocks; and an occasion
for the whitejacketed and epauletted
Naval guests, and the consequent wall
Towering of civilians.
The Moana Hotel is finely adapted to
such function and looked its best
The solarium was brilliant with parti-
colored incandescents. This beautiful
coronet of red, white and blue was
visible from the city. Preceding the
ball the Hawaiian band gave an excel
lent concert beneath the hau tree arbor
in the pretty little hotel park.
The ball was graeed by Admiral and
Mrs. Swinburne and their dinner guests
aboard the flagship, including Governor
and Mrs. Frear, and Captain and Mrs.
Rees. Most of the higher officers, as
well as large contingent of the
younger officers, were present.
Sailors Have Dance.
If the American sailor can fight as
well as he can dance, the Stars and
Stripes will hold its supremacy wher-
ever it flies. At the Seaside Hotel last
evening the bluejackets danced in the
pretty open lanai, and had no end of
partners. The lanai was prettily decor
ated with red Oriental lanterns, and
even the trees were sprinkled with red
incandescents. The dance was attend
ed by scores of happy bluejackets.

SUPERVISOR

He Would Be a Good Roads
Servant of the
People.

Jim Quinn has come out for super
visor for Oahu county. Quinn is OF the
Sixth Precinct, Fourth District, and
has looked well to the delegates who
attend the Republican convention. He
is of the opinion that the precinct dele
gates will be for Quinn, and that will
be enough to start the boom.
81 am out for COED roads super
visor for the county of OAHU said
Quinn yesterday. 81 can appreciate
now with my automobile what good
roads mean, and what well-kept roads
mean 1t is all right to build good
roads, but they must be kept in repair
and by a different system than that
now in vogue. Constant repairing to
roads will be cheaper in the end. Build
ing fine, expensive road, and then
leaving it to rip out full of ruts, is
mistake. That would be one of the
principal works I would undertake if
elected ,as a supervisor. And | think
I know what good roads ought to be. y
Achi for Hustace
Achi makes no secret of his backing
of Hustace for mayor. He declares

He puts it in the negative way and
says Lucas is the weaker of the two.
In addition he says that unless he gets
in and works neither one Of the Re
publican aspirauts for the office can
win.
Cooke for Chairman
j. P. Cooke is being advanced for
chairman of the coming Republican
convention. He is urged owing to
Aleck Robertson S statement that he
does not wish to WELD the gavel this
year. Cooke is representative busi-
ness man and has taken decided stand
in politics for the past eight years. He
is one of the few business men IN

Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great a change g
few years of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from u
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.
