When DR.. Bloomfield was bishop Of
London he received several letters
complaining that the architect of a
new church In his diocese had disfig-
ured the interior and exterior with
useless gewgaws." Consequently the
bishop went down to the little town to
make an inspection of the building
and summoned the architect to meet
him there.
The bishop could find nothing amlss
with the exterior Of the church nor
with the interior until just as he reach
ed the chancel he looked up and saw
four wooden images apparently guard
ing the pulpit.
"What do those figures representa-"
he inquired.
1.-THE four evangelists, my lord" re-
piled the architect.
"They appear to be asleep" said the
bishop.
do you think so. my lord?"
"That's the way they look to me-"
said the bishop decidedly.
"John," called the architect to a
man who was ut work on one of the
pews, "bring your chisel and open the
eyes Of the evangelists."

Or as the flights of eagles are.
Or like the fresh springs gaudy hue.
Or silver drops Of morning dew.
Or like a wind that chafes the flood.

Zen such Is man. whose borrowed light

The wind blows out. the bubble dies,

The dew's dried up. the star Is shot,

Three plantations, all of which will

managers, are reported by Alexander &

ment:
I'VE expect from the showing which
has been made up to this time that
the Hawaiian Commercial crop will
run up to about $1,000 tons for the
present season. This will be about
1000 tons over the estimate though
about 5000 tons short Of the crop for
last season. 1t includes the Kihei
crop, Of course. The excess over the
estimate is accounted for by unusually
good cane juice. Everything on the

that, where a matter of S25O,00O was
concerned, her reward should be as
sWed.
Promises were made that if the gold
was forthcoming she would receive
her share. Her excuse met by this
state of affairs, the tall lady took re-
fuge in the claim that she was in fact
entitled to the greater proportion of
that which should be discovered.
Meanwhile at least one member of
the party, the lady doctor, became dis
gusted and packed up her things and
left Honolulu.
Then, the story goes, the men, act
ing on the tall lady's directions, rent
ed cottage in KalIhi, on which prem
ises the coin was alleged to have been
buried, and by day and night there
were the sounds Of picks and shovels.
But, and not so strange 10 relate,
there was never a glitter Of gold.
Now this gold was supposed TO have
been buried here by Bloom and Dou-
glas, a couple of Australian adventur-
ers, about twenty years ago Bloom
and Douglas came here in the schoon-
er-yacht, as they called her, Beagle.
One report had it at the time, prob
ably the report they themselves chose
to publish, that they had been paid
large sum of money to get out of
Australia and so fail to be witnesses
in case in court which involved sew
eral fortunes. Another report, more
generally accepted, was that they had
robbed a bank in Australia In any
event, there came to British Commits
sioner Wodehouse an official commun-
ication from Australia which sought
to have Bloom and Douglas returned
to Australia, but such efforts failed
through technicality or otherwise.
While here Bloom and Douglas
spent money like drunken sailors.
They made their headquarters at Abb
ram Fernandez place on King street
and received like princes. There were
feasts and luaus and dances and Meth
er Bloom nor Douglas ever had less
than a golden sovereign in change.
They freely told of the riches they
had, more than fifty thousand pounds,
and appeared not to worry about the
future. They purchased expensive fur
nishings for the King street house at
which they made their headquarters
and they paid their bills before they
got out of town, probably going with
their little old-fashioned English gun
boat for she had been a gIn-boat,

two being the Hongkong Maru and the
Manshu Maru. They will sail from
Hongkong on a six-weekly schedule,
taking little over four months for the
round trip. The Hongkong and Anne
rica Marus are well known in this
city having recently been replaced by
the Chiyo and Tenyo Marus. The
Manshu Maru is five hundred tons
smaller than the America Maru and
of the same general type, being twin
screw steamer which has been used in
the trade between Japan and Austria
liza.
The next Toyo Kisen Kaisha vessel
on the South American run to arrive
here will be the Hongkong Maru,
which is due on June % and is follow
ed by the Manshu Maru on July 30.
This will mean that after the schedule
is in running order the city of Homo
lulu will be visited by one of the ves-
sells of this line about once every three
weeks.

plantation is looking very well.
THE crop on the Maui Agricultural
property should run as high as $4,000,
which will be 5000 tons more than
last year and will exceed the estimate
of 25,5OO tons by $500 tons. This is
due mainly 70 heavier cane, as regards
the estimated excess, and to larger
acreage as regards the excess over the
previous crop.
Mallaweli is also going to show
fine excess and we expect to have a
total crop of $4,000 tons as against the
estimate of 22,5O0. On this plantation
the cane is not as heavy as was eX-
pected but the juices are so good that
She deficient weight is more than

Phantom gold has still sufficient
charm to bring persons with a passion
for easy riches far from overseas, and
even up-to-date. hustling Honolulu is
today the playground of the sprites OF
gilded chance who have successfully
beckoned from as far away as New
York men and women to come to dig
in romantic Kalihi for kegs Of gold
en- coin that were never planted there.
About the story there is the mys-
terry of a woman's wit and the old,
old proposition of so-called wiser men
remaining mum when they have dis
covered that they are fooled and foil
ed.
Recently there came to Honolulu a
tall, middle-aged young lady, accom-
panied by a woman doctor and two
''fnanciers," father and son, who at
once registered and put up at the Alex
ander Young Hotel.
Ostensibly, the men had come to en-
gage in a little business in connec-
tion with New York real estate. They

much of the charms of Honolulu

and where she had lost one husband
Whether she was financially fixed

where she longed 10 again make her
home, on her own resources, or whe-
ther she saw a grand opportunity to
get back to the Paradise of the Paci-
fic at the expense of her eastern
friends, with, perhaps, few cash on
the side to warrant residence at the
Young Hotel, are matters which may
be gone into deeper as time goes
on, but concerning which it is per-
haps more charitable not to inquire
too closely just now.
Be these things as they may, it was
hopeful party that registered at the
Young Hotel a few weeks ago.
The tall lady had agreed to point
out where there We're buried, near the
city of Honolulu, certain Iiaint kegs
containing fifty thousand golden Eng
lish sovereigns, pretty little fortune
of $250,0OO, quarter of a million dol
lars.
But when it came to the tall ladys
