able time. Eva reached $32, with little
offerings at that figure.
There were two sales, aggregating
10 shares, of Hawaiian Pineapple
Company at 1925, indicating a renew
ed interest in the stock. Other stocks
were for the most part quiescent. and
there was little trading outside those
mentioned. The bond market was
weak, the total transactions amount
ing to only $4,000 par value.
Dividends Declared.
The hearts of stockholders were re-
joiced during the week with the usual
monthly dividends of such stocks as
are returning interest on the invest
ments. Hawaiian Electric declared a
special 2 per cent. dividend in addi-
ton to the three-quarters regular.
Retail Trade.
The Christmas retail trade has al
ready commenced, and the local stores
are doing good business. A number
of them have begun keeping open IN
the evening, giving the usually desert
ed night streets of Honolulu an ami
mated appearance.
Coastwise Suspension.
The agitation for the suspension of
the coastwise shipping laws still con
tinues, and there is every prospect
that congress at the coming session
will relieve the Territory of the bur
den it is now forced to bear. There
are hundreds of tourists known to be
on the Coast waiting for an opportu.

get passage because bookings are re-
fused by the steamship companies.

but to general confidence on the part
of the buying public. 1t is known that
crop conditions are better than ever
before, while the sugar market is very
firm and the prices quoted are higher
than for many years. The quotations
for the new crop promise to open I'M
usually high, and everything indicates
that the coming year is going to be a
prosperous one for the plantations. I'm
der such conditions a general advance
in the price of stocks is to be expected,
and there is no reason to anticipate
any serious reaction.
McBryde Still Active.
McBryde still continues to hold the
first place in the selling list on the ex-
change. and the transfers of this stock
during thepas week have been heavvy.
An average price of $3.50 has been
maintained, though the stock has sold
up as high as 1913 and down to $6.25
during the week. Despite the denials
of any prospective amalgamation with
Makaweh. the stockholders appear to
regard the prospects of the plantation
as warranting better prices, and sellers
are much more scarce than buyers
Waialua Advances.
Waialua has been particularly strong
during the week and has made an ad,
vance that might almost be regarded
as sensational, if the transfers of stock
had been larger. That they were not
larger was due TO the fact that holders
were not anxious to part with their
stock and that little came out. The
stock opened at $122.50 and closed yes,
terday at 1924, with 1926 asked.
Pioneer Goes Up.
Pioneer is the strongest stock now
listed on the market. 1t sold last Mon
day at $3.50, but went up to $l92.50 for
the last sales, with little offered and
holders standing out for nothing less
than 5000. After the session closed yes
terday the stock sold on the street as
high as 1913. There is no boom in the
stock. however, the monthly 81 divl'

Commercial Review

The better business is, as a rule, the
has been good the past week, but the
business transacted was not of the kind
that creates news. There were no big
transactions, no amalgamations or mer-
gers, no large bankruptcies. Business
was simply good, that was all, and that
is enough to satisfy the business in
terests.
There was not great deal doing out
side of the stock market. Real estate
is still at a standstill, which, however,
is to be expected when the stock mar
ket is active There have been no land
sales of any Importance reported
though few are still hanging fire.
The reported amalgamation of Maka
well and McBrvde plantations is vigor
ously denied by representatives of both
concerns. Alexander & Baldwin have
not yet taken over the agency from
Davies & Company, but it is confidently
expected that the deal will be made.
A committee representing Alexander
& Baldwin went over to Kauai this
week to look over the plantation. and
yesterday a wireless was received from
them saying, Committee is satisfied
with the reports This is interpreted
to mean that the prospective agents are
of the opinion that it would be good
business for them to take over the man
agement of McBryde and that this will
be done in short time.
Looks Like Kona.
Really the most important factor
this week from a business standpoint
is the weather. At the present writing
all indications point to a kona, and this
is good news for the plantations and
for all interests which are directly or
indirectly dependent for their success
upon good sugar crops and prosperous
season. Rain is badly needed in all
parts of the territory, and the prospects
of kona look good to the sugar in
terests 1t has been many months since
there was good, hard rain and a gen
eral storm would mean dollars to the
community at large. Aside from eco
nomic reasons. there is a great deal
of typhoid and other disease about the
territory. and a general rain would
greatly improve health conditions.
Stock Market Strong.
Although there have been no sensa-
tions on the stock market, the market
has been very strong all during the
week. Nearly all stocks have been in
heavy demand and prices of nearly all
listed have advanced pereePtibly.
This is due, not to any artificial boom,

Golf as a Source of Worry.
rom the Philadelnhia Innnirer

The London Lancet, which is never hap
Ply unless it is finding some fresh occa-
sion to be miserable. has just made the
startling discovery that the game of golf
is injurious to the nervous system That
1t is a frequent occasion for profanity
is a circumstance with which the comic
writer's, whose taste exact for fault 'eSS
fact amounts to a disease, have made the
public aware. But that it should be more
of an irritant than sedative; that the
recreative effectiveness of the exercise
which it necessitates and of the fresh
air which 1t involves should be more
than counteracted by the mental worry
Of which 1t is the occasion is a discovery
which 1t has been reserved for that sol.
emn kll-joy of Lancet to distinguish
itself by making.
than soothe the feelings" This is a state
ment which neither those who play the
game nor those who are content to watch
other people play it will be Inclined to
dispute. There certainly is a good deal
in golf to ruffie the feelings. as the be-
ginner finds out when the drive he has
intended materializes in cloud of dust.
But what of that? To control ones ruff
fled feelings is healthy discipline. and no
human being Of normal intelligence can
long pursue the game without becoming
a good deal of a phi osopher. Perhaps
few things are more efficacious than golf
i'm taking a persons conceit out of him.
and there is some reason to suspect that
it is knowledge of this circumstance
that keeps quite number of people Oft
the links. But since when has the abate-
ment of self-concet been an unhealthy
process?
