CRACKERS WAY
UP IN PRICE

AS the result of the rise in the
price of flour all over the world the
price of crackers in this city has been
raised fully twenty-five per cent. The
local manufacturers, as well as those
on the Coast, have raised their prices
and the consumer must pay more or
go without. Flour still remains at
$6.25 per barrel at wholesale here but
that it will advance at the end of the
month when the next shipment comes
in is certain. In the East flour is
now selling at $3.50 per barrel at re-
tail.
There is one note of consolation in
the local market, that fruits and We
getables from California will prob
ably be lower than they have for some
time past. The crop of peas and as
paragus in California this year pro-
misses to be unusually large and on
the latter vegetable the price is only
slightly more than half of what it
was year ago. In spite Of the phe-
nomenally heavy rains in California
which brought disastrous floods to the
San Joaquin and Sacramento riv-
err valleys, the asparagus crop will be
extremely fine both in quality and
quantity.

CAPT. NICHOLS
BACK ON JOB
VETERAN OFFICER OF AMERICAN
HAWAIIAN NOT ALLOWED TO
RETIRE.

An old friend on the local water
front, who was hardly expected to be
in this port again, arrived yesterday
on the Columbian in the person OF
Captain Nichols. Some time ago he
decided to retire from active seafaring
life, but the American-Hawaiian com
pany, who have always looked on him
as the commodore of their fleet will
Aot allow him to get away and have
practically forced him back into ser
vice.
Captain Nichols, who has been run
ming to these islands for many years
and recently as the commander of the
Mexican, resigned and decided to stay
on shore. Then a vacancy occurred
on the steamer Isthmian, running be-
tween the Port de Mexico and New
York and he was asked to help out
by taking her for a couple Of voyages.
Being willing to help his old employ
ers he did so. Then Captain Colcord
of the Columbian was slightly injur-
ed and asked for vacation and again
the Observation-Disclosures called on the
veteran for assistance. AS the result
he is on the Columbian in this city
while Captain Colcord is taking a two
months vacation. At the expiration
of that time Captain Nichols says he
is going to retire in earnest and give
up the seafaring life for good.
1t is doubtful if any steamship COM
u1gOdpr coming IN HOnO1u11 has mora
friends either in his own line of bust
ness or socially in this city than Cap
tain Nichols. He has been running
in and out of here SO long that every
one on the waterfront knows him and
as he walked up town from his YES
sci this morning he was accorded a
number of impromptu receptions on
the street by his friends who had not
heard that he was in town.

DOG STAR
WITNESS
HIS ALLEGED ASSAILANT is
COMMITTED TO THE GRAND
JURY.

A dog was the main witness in a
case in police court this morning. He
did not take the witness stand, but
His Honor, Judge Andrade, came
down off the bench to examine the
animals eye and feel his hide for gum
shot wounds.
Two able attorneys were pitted
against each other for several hours
over the dog. Douthitt represented
the dog. Peters, contra.
Chung Hung, Chinese, is charged
with shooting Towser, alias Fido, alias
Rover, the Chinese words for these
names not appearing in the complaint.
A multitude of witnesses testified
for either side and the dog put his
wounds in evidence. He was probably
the only witness in the case who told
an absolutely straight story, and he
wasn't sworn at that.
Judge and learned counsel rinsed
their fingers at the police court water
coler after feeling Brunos hurts and
His Honor committed the defendant
| for trial in the circuit court, should
| he be indicted.
This means that Beauty, alias Come
lhere-old-fellow will have to appear be-
fore the grand jury.
1t seems that there has been bad
blood between the owner of the dog
and the man who is alleged to have
shot him, also has there been ill feel
| ing hetween the wives of COMPLAINT
and defendant.
Complaints dog was shot, but who
shot him remains to be shown. AL
concerned are Chinese, except the dog
who is Scotch.
During the course of the trial il
was shown that the interpreter un
derstood very few of the important
questions which he was supposed tC
interpret.

WAILUKU TO HAVE
ANOTHER PAPER

Waikiki is going to repeat history
in having an opposition paper to buck
the Maui News. 1t looked like short
commons for one paper in Hilo when
the first weekly sheet started there,
but within a short time there was
another one to Sass" the pioneer
sheet, and both have managed to live
now for many years past Now it is
Wailuku's turn to supply journalistic
representation for the faction that
thinks it needs it. 1t will be the turn
of Kauai next-that is, if that island
has anything but a common cause
against all the rest of the group, which
at present appears highly doubtful. At
all events, a movement is on foot to
start another paper in Wailuku

SAVES HANDLING
EASTERN FREIGHT
ALAMEDA GOES TO CHINA BASIN
EACH TRIP, CUTTING DOWN EX-
PENSES.

With the last trip to San Francisco
the Oceanic Steamship Company has
made an improvement in the freight
service given this city which should
be much appreciated by the local mer-
chants. This is in the decision that
the steamer will call at the China
Basin to receive and discharge over
land freight on each trip made to
the Coast BY doing this she will re-
ceive freight for this city which has
come by the overland route of both
Santa Fe and Southern Pacific direct,
the necessity of transhipment
across the city in dTays. This cost
making a considerable saving, as no
extra charge will be made by the Ocea-
mic people.
1t is suggested by w. G. Irwin &
Company the local agents of the
Oceanic line, that if the local mer-
chants make this fact known to their
shippers in the East both time and
expense will be saved, the regular SER
vice of the Alameda giving a con-
siderable advantage in this manner.
The first trip to the China basin
was made by the Alameda on her last
voyage and proved very successful, a
large amount of freight for this city
being shipped direct to the East, which
was done under the new plan with
one less handling than is ordinarily
necessary. The same thing was true
of freight received from the East and
destined for shipment to this city.
