FOR A BENEFIT

There has been much suggestion
about "a benefit game for the All-Stars.
The first suggestion was for them to
play at Aala Park on Sunday morning
against a picked Aala team. Then
there was a suggestion for them to
meet an all-Japanese team with bor
rowed battery at the league park on
Sunday morning.
1t would be very courteous thing
TO give the visitors q benefit. The
PLAYERS get only their salary, and one
can imagine how far that goes on n
trip through the Orient with so much
attractive stuff to buy and so many
incidental expenses.
The players themselves have nothing
to do with this The suggestion first
came from a prominent officer of some
Of the local leagues and it looks like
good one. Nothing definite as vet
mas been arranged, but it is very prob
able that the Stars viii play pick
ed japanese team next Monday after
noon at the league park, with Bliss to
catch and Burns to pitch. Shonld this
he arranged. there 5 no doubt that
the bleachers and grandstand would
be filed at a general price of twenty
| FIVE cents admitting TO all parts

WATERFRONT NEWS
ALDEN BESsE :
OUT Il DAYS
Vessel With the Los Angeles
Cargo Should Arrive
Here Soon.


The Alden Besse, which is bringing
a cargo Of Los angeles products to
Hawaii, IS now out nineteen days from
San Pedro, and should be poking her
nose in sight almost any minute. She
is not remarkably swift craft, how
ever, and it may be that she will not
show up for several days, or even a
week, yet. According to the Los An
geIes Evening News, the company
which is sending the cargo here from
the Coast viii hold an exhibit in Homo
lulu OF the made-in- Southern Califor-
ma goods as soon as the ship arrives.
Inc following clipping appeared in the
Los Angeles News some time ago, be-
fore the boat sailed for this port.
Lying at anchor IN San Pedro har-
Dor, filed with cargo of Los Angeles
products, IS the seaworthy bark Alden
Besse, which viii carry to Honolulu the
hrst cargo of Southern California mer-
chandlse to be introduced in the Islands
III order that Angeleno merchants may
get share of the Hawaiian trade. upon
which San Francisco at present has a
monopoly.
The Los Angeles Hawaii Commercial
Company has had the boat ready for
the past two weeks, and has contracts
signed up with forty leading merchants
and manufacturers Of this city to help
fill the hold with samples of ..madein-
Southern California articles.
Shortly after the boat s arrival at
Honolulu Southern California exhi-
-hition will be held. which is being
boosted at present by the numerous
Angelenos who have gone there. in
ending William Langton, editor of Par
adise of the Pacific, and Norman Dens-
ham, well-known Los Angeles sport
writer, now sports editor of the Com
mercial Advertiser OF Honolulu. At this
fair samples of Los Angeles articles
will be distributed, II being planned
TO establish a heavy trade between here
and the Islands. This seems perfectly
possible, as the trip from here to the
Islands can be made twenty-four hours
quicker than from San Francisco.
The bark, which registers at So tons
net, viii set sail at an early date. as
soon as the cargo can all be gotten
aboard.
Bolt Signs Discharge.
r. Bolt, the young man who closed
his bunkmate s eve after an argument
on the freighter Mexican regarding fra
ternal organizations, signed his dis.
charge and was given his pay yester-
day by Shipping Commissioner Almy.
Bolt viii be returned to the mainland
by the company, and viii probably be
sent up on the Pleiades.

HALEIWA WALK
CONFERENCE

St. Clair Bidgood, he of the Hale
iva hostelry was il town yesterday
stirring up Marathon business. 1t was
gently insinuated to him that the town
was baseball crazy at present and that
it was no time to stir up trouble But
Mr.. Bidgood had merely come IN to see
what was going on and TO reassert his
declaration that anything the commit
tee decided on was quite good enough
for him.
There are many people in town who
want TO know about this event and
when it is coming off. Nothing has
been decided up till now but there Will
be another mass meeting in the Young
Hotel roof garden next Tuesday TO ap-
point another committee on open sport
ing events.
The meeting win be called at hatf
past FIVE. as this seems to be a time
that suits everybody and all those who
are at all interested in this long dis
lance go-as-you-ple race, are request
ed to make a point of being present.
The work done by Mr.. Cheatham, OF
the last committee. cannot be too high
~ commended Densham was Ill and
Ayres went to Hilo, but the last walk
ing match came off in grand shape and
the credit must go TO Cheatham, who
hustled round out Of working hours and
did so well that the second race was a
greater success than the first one II
every way.
There are at least twenty people II
| Honolulu who have expressed their IN
| tention of entering this race and the
! sooner details are fixed the better. Ev
erybody take a tumble and turn up at
the meeting next Tuesday at half past
! five, in the mauka Young Hotel pavilion

MOANA BUCkED
STRONG WINDS
Although Ship Arrived Ahead OF
Time. She Met a Steady
Blow.

With but five passengers for Homo
lulu, the Canadian Australian steamship
Moana arrived ahead of her scheduled
time from the Colonies last night, and
Immediately began discharging what
cargo she brought for this port. As
she came into the dock. she listed far
towards the shore, and it was freely
predicted that the boat had encountered
such serious gales that her cargo had
shifted to one side This, however,
proved not to be the case, for, although
the Moana met remarkably strong
winds almost all the way from Aus
tralia, there were no especially heavy
seas, nor were. any actual storms en-
countered
1t is probable that this boat will be
taken off the run this summer, as soon
as the Australian tourist season be-
gins, and the Manuka, the fine new
liner of the company, viii be put in
her place. No definite information re-
garding this can be learned, but it is
the general talk among the officers of
the ship. The Manuka has been through
here once or twice, and she has made
a very favorable impression. The Mo-
ana, now in port. is an old boat, and
she viii probably be given a shorter
run in the Colonies when she is trans
ferred from this voyage.
The trip to Honolulu was uneventful
the only feature of the voyage worthy
of mention being the steady strong
winds which were met by the steamship
every day after she crossed the Equa,
tor. There was not the slightest sign
of let-up in these in all the time, and
even when the vessel neared the IS
lands, she had to buck a nasty head-on
blow.
The following is the purser's report
of the trip:

teen months. After his discharge he
went west and landed in San Fran
cisco. Finding nothing to keep him
there, he took passage on the bark
Comet to Honolulu. This vessel
brought to the Islands the first news
of Lincoln s reelection.
Once here, he decided to remain and
went to work for the Honolulu Iron
Works, shortly after going into the
plumbing business, to which trade he
had been apprenticed at home. Later
on he started the old Fountain res
taurant and temperance saloon on Fort
street, and finally branched out by
starting an ice works under the tnen
new ammonia process.
Selling out his interests in Honolulu
he went to Brisbane, Australia, where
he again started an ice works and was
nearly successful in having his own
system introduced on the steamers for
the purpose Of taking frozen mutton
to Europe. Failing in this he returned
to Honolulu in 1877 and went to Ha-
wall where he started in the ava ship
ping business. He did well in this and
took up land, going later into the cat
tie business.
He was one of the first to start eof-
fee-growing and planted three hundred
acres in lower Puma, but this venture
was not great success and he sold
| out his Puma holdings to sugar syndf-
cate. He had so much faith in the ia
| ture of Puma as sugar raising eoun-
| try that he took large amount Of
stock in the new company and came
| to Honolulu IN 1899.
Here he started in the soda business

STREET CONTROL
IS QUESTIONED
CONTINUED from Page One.)

Supervisor Logan differed from Mr..
Quinn in regard to the Kaimuki sand,
saying that he had been informed that
the Japs were seen shoveling it from
the streets. Mr.. Quinn stated, however.
that the road lunas had been instructed
to watch this matter closely.
Mayor Fern declined to put the mo-
ton to accept the report, as the COM
mittee was not of his appointing. It
went the 81, 2, 81 route.
Should Control Streets.
A report from the roads, bridges and
parks committee presented by MIR.
Quinn stated that in regard to the per-
mission granted TO the Rapid Transit
company to cross Kalakaua avenue to
connect its track with the army engi-
neer track on Saratoga road, assurance
had been given the Superintendent of
Public Works by the Rapid Transit
company that the latter would put the
street in good condition again. 1t was
further stated that the Superintendent
of Public Works is willing to do all in
his power to assist the county IN re-
curing corporations that dig up the
streets to replace the latter in the same
condition. and will also require them
to give bonds to do so. The superin-
tendent recommended that the Board OF
Supervisors present a bill to the Legis-
lature to put all streets in the control
of the City and County government so
that the city would have proper au-
thority to enforce proper repairing OF
trenched streets.
County Has No Authority.
Mr.. Quinn stated that he had learn
ed that the county actually had no
authority in regard TO streets; that IS,
to enforce anything in regard to them.
However, the Superintendent of Publle
! Works had referred the Kalakaua ave-
nue. matter to the board as matter
of courtesy Mr. Logan in moving the
| adoption of the report added that the
| CITY Attorney be instructed to draft
measure covering the recommendation
presented by the committee. The mat
ter went through by the 81, :, g.
method.
