Arrangements have been made by Islam

session of that body to be held in the
crater of the active volcano Kllauea

SAN FRANCISCO, September 26.-
Improvement of harbor facilities for
the islands of the Hawaiian group
promises to be the most immediate re-
suit of the visit to the insular terri
tory of the party of twenty-three Con-
gressmen which left San Francisco Au-
gust "a and returned yesterday on the
Pacific Mail liner Mongolia. The Con-
gressmen studied the island situation
and came back yesterday with fairly
concurrent views on the problems of
the midpaeiic possession. They are
lodged at the st. Francis.
Without exception, apparently, the
members of the delegation were con-
WINGED that. the harbors of the four
largest Islands in the group must be
improved, The port of Hilo, on Ha.
wall, the largest island of the group,
in the opinion of many of the party,
called for immediate attention. A year.
ly appropriation of between 100000
and 100000 for the construction of a
breakwater should, in the opinion of
some, be made by the Federal govern
ment until the haven is perfected.
The four islands are Oahu, where Ho-
its port; Maui and Kauai.
The labor and immigration problems
of the Islands interested the congress
sional delegates. Some of them favor
ed legislation which would directly en-.
courage the immigration of Europeans.

GUILTY
Jury Returns Verdict
Against Sheriff's
Besiegers.

"Guilty as charged" was the YER
diet brought in at 4:55 O'Clock yes
terday afternoon by the jury of Judge
De Bolt s court that has been deliber
ating on the evidence in the Wanna
ralo riot trial. And the judge imme-
diately handed out sentence of eight
months in prison to each of the eight
japanese rioters.
In addition to the sentence, the
judge gave the rioters a severe lecture,
telling them in effect that so long as
they are in this country, they must
abide by the laws of this country,
that they can not set up a govern
ment of their own and set at defiance
the laws of the country in which they
reside. 1t will not do for them to
think that they can oppose them
selves to the laws and statutes of the
Territory of Hawaii, just because they
happen to be foreign born, and escape
having to pay the penalty.
The sentence passed upon the con-
vieted rioters amounts virtually to a
year IN prison for each, for they have
been in Jail about three months await
ing trial, and no account is taken of
the time thus spent.
The Waimanalo riot trial has taken
less time than most of the other trials
that have grown out of the recent
japanese strike. It was conducted, in
the main, without fireworks and with
out any squabbling among counsel.
The evidence against the defendants
was considered by those who listened
to the trial to be overwhelming and
the jury was confidently expected to
bring in a verdict.
Comparatively little interest, how
ever, attached to the trial partly be-
cause of the fact that the strike is
now a thing of the past and partly
because the defendants are all Japa-
nese of the lowest class and of NO
consequence as individuals, although
they amount to considerable when con
sidered in the mass.

FASHION VERSUS BEAUTY.

Boston Sculptor Tells How Female
Form Is Being Ruined.
That woman's figure has been ruined
by slavery to fashion is the declaration
Of Hugh Gains, the Boston sculptor.
He says:
"Woman's figure is getting poorer
and poorer every year. The women Of
today are getting farther and farther
away from the Greek figure Of 1000
years ago.
"As one instance Of this, those who
determine What is fashionable are try
ing to bring the waist line farther
down all the time At present an eff
fort is being made To get il down as
low as the hips, This is all wrong. Of
course. for nature long ago determined
that 1t should be just below the breast
allowing a soft. graceful line from hip
to armpit. So long us fashion dictates
that the waist shall be close to the
hips, so long will we have women with
bullying. mmpy hips aud other deform
tiles.
If women would have just such 4
waist as they seek--the beautiful that
we see In classic paintings and ScuIp
ture, the waist that characterized the
ancient Greek woman-let them avoid
fashions"
