the holder not to violate or allow to

TAFT STORY too
GOOD To Be TRUE

81 have heard nothing about Presi-
dent Taft coming here on the cruiser
St. Louis, except what I saw in the
newspapers, was the comment of Cap
tain Benson, Chief of Staff of the Pa
eifc feet, when asked if confirmation
of the report could be given on the
flagship Tennessee.
Captain Benson added that he did
not believe the President would make
such a trip, as his itinerary had been
made out and it was close connections
throughout, and to deviate from it to
make trip here would disturb all the
prepared plans.
An afternoon paper stated that the
news of a visit of the President to
Honolulu on the St Louis was received
"on board the Pacific feet by the of
ficers today" Captain Benson knows
nothing of such report and he is in
a position to know if any such had
been received.

POsTOFFICE PLANS
IN THE HANDS Of
THE AUTHORITIES
BY Ernest G.. Walker.
Mail Special to the Advertiser.1


WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.--The Uni
ted States Treasury Department today
decided to join the Civil Service Com
mission in recommending to the Presi-
dent the exemption from the classified
service of the employees of the leprosy
investigation station in Hawaii. The
President may make the required ex-
emption during his western trip. He
will be practically compelled to do so,
as nobody can be found who is willing
to take the examination for positions
at the place where leprosy is investi-
gated.
The Marine Hospital Service is
about TO open station on the Island
of Molokai for the thorough study of
the dread disease. Buildings costing
$75,0 900 have been erected, and the staff
for conducting the Investigations is
now being organized.
DR.. D. H. Curry, of the Marine Hos
pital Service, the new director of the
station, is now on his way to Hawaii
from abroad, where he has been at
tending the international congress on
leprosy at Bergen, Norway. DR.. Wal
ter Brinckerhoff and DR.. Holman, both
experts, will be his assistants. Con-
gress has appropriated $4,000 for the
expenses of the station, and it is ex-
pected that as a result of the investi-
cations to be conducted a cure for
Ieprosy will be discovered.
After President Taft signs the exec
utive order it is expected that the at
tendants and assistants will be secured
in Hawaii
The ARCHITECTURAL competition for the
plans for the new Federal building at
Honolulu closed at ? clock this af-
ternoon. A board of architects of the
Treasury is now at work on the plans.
The award probably will be made in
about ten days.

that he has seen,-is satisfied with his

for several days, they remained here un-

A week ago our people were dominated
by conjecture as to who the couple would
be, who were said to be most interested in
a rumored marriage to take place in a day
or two, and this conjecture was aggreVat-
ed when it was declared by the few within
the lines, that it would be one Of much
surprise to us all. About all OF the uncer-
tainty vanished Monday evening when MIR.

ed in connection with the coming surprise
marriage) bis daughter Mrs. Allie Lorick,

REPEAL OF LIEN Law.
Statute Will be imperative After
January /.

Columbia Special in the News and
Courier: Merchants and farmers through
out the State do not appear to be worrying
much about the effect Of the repeal OF the
lien law, which goes into operation on an
uary /. It is stated that the situation as
to the securing Of liens will practically re-
main unchanged.
One method suggested is taking a mort
gage on the personal effects OF the honor
at the time goods are furnished and later
when the crop is up taking a second mort.
gage on this. The personal effects would
consist of COWS, horses, etc., and as there Is
a crop mortgage law on the statute books,
the difficulty occasioned by the repeal OF
the lien law would be overcome. The meth
cd, it is said, has already been put into
practice by lien merchants in various parts
Of the State.
The sole change under the repeal Of the
lien law is that no mortgage can be taken
on a crop that Is not up. The lien law al
lowed this and was generally described as
a mortgage on what is not" Other
means may be used to get around the re-
peal of the lien law, but it is very probable
that the plan outlined above will be the
most popular.
