4 NEW CEMETERY
IN WA|ALAE TRACT

A new effort is being made to estab-
fish a cemetery on the Waialae side
of the Kaimuki ridge on the site orig
inaily selected several years ago and
recommended by the Board of Health
of that period. The Waialae Gene
terry Association has been organized
by the Real Estate Exchange to carry
out the project. The company has the
right to purchase fifty acres. which is
regarded not only as the most suita-
Bile, but the only available cemetery
site within a radius of ten miles of the
city limits.
1t is claimed that water in plenty
can be piped to the site which can be
made into a beautiful cemetery park,
as the soil is of chocolate loan with
a disintegrated sand subsoil, free from
rock to be blasted and no water to
interfere with the graves.
The projectors propose twenty acres
for Protestant churches. ten acres for
Catholic churches. five acres for Chi
nese, five acres for japanese, three
acres for a mortuary chapel, crema,
tory building, lawns and seven acres
for reserve driveways, walks, etc.

Fear the United States.
There was an interesting incident at
Eva plantation yesterday morning
when High Sheriff Henry, a photo
grapher employed by the attorneys in,
terested in the prosecution of the as
sailants of Giiehi, two prison lunas and
a representative of the Planters Asso
citation, entered hall on the plantation
to secure evidence for the trial of thugs
already under arrest.
"A number of Japanese were in the
hall discussing the strike situation, but
they ceased talking when the party en-
tered When the photographer pointed
his camera at placard ON the wall
which bore in japanese hieroglyphies
: the names of the members of the
Higher Wage Association, one Japanese
came from group and shouted to his
fellows to call in all the Japanese from
outside, to smash the camera and to
rush the haoles.
There was immediate compliance
with the first part of the order. Mes
sengers ran out and in short time a
big crowd was on its way toward the
building. Interpreter Doyle was present
with the haole party and quickly inter
preted the shouts and the party realized
it was in danger. But the photographer
snapped his camera and photographed
the tell-tale placard.
"A hasty conference was held result
ing in the High Sheriff going to the
veranda where he shouted to the Japa-
nese to halt They were making a
great deal of noise and he ordered them
to dispense. His orders were interpre-
ted by Doyle and the crowd subsidized
somewhat. Then attorney w. A. Kin
ney stepped forward and spoke to the
men advising them not to commit any
acts which might be interpreted as a
State prison offense He told them to
remember that that they were aliens in
a foreign land and must respects its

involve them in a conflict with the
power of the United States. AS he
continued speaking the hotheads among
the crowd subsidized and in short time
everything was still.
Mr.. Kinney advised them that the
United States government had laws
bearing on the subject of mob rule.
Finally one man came forward and said
that if it was the United States they
were up against they would subside.
He said he thought it was a plantation
matter.
High Sheriff Henry has brought all
the prisoners to town, and they number
about a score. He made a trip to the
plantation late yesterday afternoon in
full uniform, accompanied by two
prison lunas and Interpreter Doyle.

VACATION SCHOOLBOYs
MIGHT HELP PLAN TIERS

Editor Advertiser: I would offer a
suggestion, and one which the planters
might seriously consider at the present

the long summer vacation and with the
large number of young men of all ma
tionalities attending these schools who
VIII be idle for at least three months,
why not give them an opportunity to
do certain work on the plantations, ir-

made that there would be a ready re-

uation TO a great extent, and would
undoubtedly be good thing for the
young men.

Our Two Natures.

There are two natures in man that
are as distant as day and night. With
the old Adam within us if we do not
keep him down in the place of death
he brings us into captivity.
1t takes us about all our lifetime
to find out who and what we are, and
when we think we know something
happens to make us think we are
farther away than when we started.
The heart is deceitful above all
things.
In the sixth chapter of Romans it
is written: Knowing this, that our
old man is crucified with Him, that
the body of sin might be DESTROYED,
that henceforth we should not serve
sin. For he that is dead is freed
from SIM" And in the eleventh verse
there are just three words to be es-
pecially considered: Reckon your
selves dead. If we we're really dead
we would not have to reckon our
selves dead Judicially we are dead,
but in reality we are still fighting the
world, the flesh and the devil. Some
people seem to think they have got
away from the flesh, and that they
are soaring away. in sort Of seventh
heaven. but they getback again soon
er or later. You cannot make the
flesh anything but flesh. 1t will be
flesh all the timed. L. Moody

Memorials For Poe and Randall.

The late James r. Randall was a
son of Maryland, native and to the
manner born. Edgar Allan Poe was
an adopted son. It has been sug-
gested that the bodies of these gifted
men be buried in Baltimore in the
same mausoleum. This suggestion
is prompted by worthy sentiment.
but its appropriateness is open to
question.
Poe died in Baltimore on October
z, 1S49, and his body was buried in
this city. His grave, often neglected
AMI perhaps forgotten at times, e.
cept by few faithful admirers OF his
genius, has long been reproach to
Baltimore. There Is now in existence
an association organized for the pur-
pose of rearing in this city an ade-
quate memorial of Poe. This monu-
ment should commemorate the great
ness of Poe alone, Cor reasons which
are obvious and convincing. Edgar
Allan Poe was not only poet of the
highest pronounced, indeed, by
some eminent European men OF let
ters the greatest poetic genius the
United States has ever produced--bus
he was also a master in the field of
fiction and literary critic of power
and distinction. For these reasons,
therefore. he is entitled t. a separate

NEwsBoY's BEREAVEMENT.

1t wasn't much of a dog, Just a
| plain, everyday sort of dog, that
lay yelping with pain in Maiden Lane
yesterday afternoon, where it had
crawled after it had been hit by a
passing automobile.
A crowd of newsboys had gathered
around it when a little crippled fell
low came hobbling up, and, parting
his way through the crowd, went to
the side of the dog, and, STOPPING, he
patted it on the head, saying: Poor
old Jack. youse is done for now, I
guess"
The poor brute knew the little fell
low, and in the midst of great agony
he wagged his tail as token Of dog
esteem
"Youse best old dog said the
crippled newsboy, as he grabbed
bunch of papers from little boys
hand, and, rolling them up, lifted up
the dogs head and laid them under
it SO be would have pillow.
Hey, there, kid" yelled one of
the onlookers. You got me papers.

money"
Cheese youse fuss" said another
and bigger boy Cant youse see
de pore dogs done for and dyin'?'
The little crippled boy stopped
nearer to the dying dog, whose yelp-
ing by this time could not be heard
above low whine. He took the an
imal in his arms, and as he seemed
to kiss his head there was trem-
bling of the dogs body, another halt
whimpered whine, and his life went
out.
For half minute the little Grip.
pied newsboy held the dogs head in
his arms. Then he dropped it and
began to cry. One of the big boys
stepped to his side, and. taking his
hand, raised him up.
Oats all right, Grip" he be-
gan, as he took dirty handkerchief
and began wiping the boys eyes.
Oats all right. Yves will get you
another dog some place"
IT knows you will" stammered
the crippled boy. But youse will
never be able to get mother dog like
Jack. He was always my friend and
mothers too. Fellers," he went on.
II don't want him carried away and
burned. l wants to take him home
and give him a decent funeral"
Come on, youse kids. shell out

SERVANT LORE.

With so much battling with the
servant problem there has sprung up
little code of servant superstiti-
tons which many housekeepers OBJ
serve. Il always SILVER when new
cook burns hole in her apron" says
one woman, "for it means that she
will not stay with me long. don't
like to have my girls come to me
dressed in black, either, for it is a
sign they won't stay the year out"
Questioned as to some of the other
superstititions which influence a
housekeeper in dealing with her SER
wants, she said:
Don't allow your new servant to
come just as the old one is departing;
it's very unlucky.
TT is unlucky for maid to reach
her place of service so long as there
is light enough for her to see to hang
up her wraps.
If you hire maid on Friday you
may expect smashed china.
A girl hired on Monday gives the
best satisfaction.
eating hearty meals the first day she
is with you, for, if not permitted, her
appetite will never be satisfied and
she will eat you out of house and
home.
If you praise your servant be-
fore breakfast you will have occasion
to scold her before dinner.
IF your new servant has many
scars from burns on her hands it is
sign she will be good cook. Look
for them if you are hiring cook.
IF maid has short, stubby fin
gers it is a sign she is wasteful and
extravagant in the extreme.
DO not hire maid with hair of
the tight curling variety, for it's a
sign she will not be neat in her
work.
IF servant calls you lady fire.
quently in conversation beware of
her, for she is probably dishonest"
