MANOA REQUESTS A
BETTER CAR SERVICE

The Manoa Improvement Club held
meeting last evening at the resi-
dence of Fred Waldron, College Hills.
at which committees on roads, police
car service, etc, were appointed, and
these will report progress at another
meeting to be held three weeks hence.
Fred Waldron presided, with Mr.. De
Freest as secretary.
The car service committee will con-
fer with the Rapid Transit officials
to see whether or not the service on
the College Hills branch may not be
improved. AT present the one car run
every twenty minutes over the line is
crowded at certain times of the day,
making it an inconvenience to many.
This is especially true in the early
morning when the trend of travel is
downward, and in the evening when it
is homeward, and again on Sundays
during the church time.
The committee will endeavor to Sc
cure a ten-ninute service in the early
morning and in the late afternoon.
when business men are returning
home. TO do this the company would

was one time in use in the branch.
Otherwise, one of the two cars run
during the evening rush could be sent
up into College Hills, instead of GO
ing around to Pawaa junction, empty,
or almost so, at present, while the one
Manoa car is overloaded.
The road committee will endeavor
to get the county government to paw
some attention to the roads of Manoa
and College Hills, some of which are
in a dep1orable condition. Another
committee will see the police officials
in order to get an extension of the
police telegraph system into the val
ley and to provide otherwise for pro-
lection of residents. Some effort will
be made to provide fire protection. An
effort will also be made to have an
estray pound established, SO that
estray cattle and horses may be i'm
pounded.

arranged for Mr.. Fairbanks and his
family to leave here for Maui. The
Tuesday following the party win go
to Hawaii, returning to Honolulu from
visit to the Volcano on the Mauna
Kea the latter part of the week.
An automobile trip around the island
of Oahu may be given Mr.. Fairbanks
tomorrow, though this has not yet been
definitely settled. During the coming
week, many dinners have been planned
in honor of the guests, and it may
be that a public reception will be held.
1t is also possible that, during the com
ing week, Mr.. Fairbanks may take a
flying trip to Kauai.
Monday morning at eleven o'clock
Mr.. Fairbanks will address the Terri
torial Legislature. On Wednesday he
will be the guest of honor at the
Booster Dinner given by the Honolulu
Commercial Club.
Mr.. Fairbanks, his wife and daugh-
ter, are staying at the home of Gov
ernor and Mrs. Frear, and they will
remain as the guests of the Chief
Executive during their entire visit in
Honolulu.
The party was greeted on the wharf
when the steamer came in yesterday
morning by territorial officials, repre-
sentatives of the Senate and House
and of the Honolulu Chamber of Com
meree.

Yesterday afternoon a penal sum-
mons was served on County Attorney
j.. w. Cathcart, citing him to appear
in the Police Court at nine 0 clock this
morning to answer to charge of as
sault upon Goo Wan Hoy. Cathcart,
in an interview given yesterday after
noon, stated that he ''may have lick
ed Chnaman,'' so the probability is
that he will enter plea of guilty to
the charge. The Bulletin stated that
both Judge Andrade and Judge Long
had refused to issue warrant for the
arrest of Cathcart. Judge Andrade
was not even at Police Court yester-
day, and Judge Long did not refuse
to issue the warrant. He stated to
Judge Humphreys that he would issue
the warrant if such was desired, but
he suggested a penal summons. To this
Judge Humphreys promptly acquleseed.
Judge Humphreys, who represents Goo
Wan Hoy in the proceedings, will make
strong plea for a sentence of, some
weight against Cathcart, and will call
attention to the difference in station
of the two men concerned. aa

 It has been shown by experiments that this form of structure will stand the greatest amount of puncture from shots before it collapses, and so the navy department is replacing the more or less solid structures with this grapevine arrangement.
 The new mast, while rising to the height of the topmast of the old style, is only about one-fifth of the weight, averaging about 1000 pounds, as against 34,000 pounds of most masts of the old style. The height of the new masts from the water to the look. out is about 120 feet, or approximately the same as the old ones, but the eye" of the ship is infinitely safer on the top of the new masts than it was on the top of the old wooden topmasts.

the various business associations as- sembled a few days ago for the difi- cult undertaking of electing an ephe- neral sovereign to preside over this fete. The delegates on arriving at the hall found 15 beauties sitting in state awaiting the decision of the judges. The idle, butterfly type was not repre- sented, for the young woman who was to attain the supreme dignity of queen had to be taken from the ranks of the business women.
 After moments contemplation the president of the committee. NJ. Chal- anson, arose and in carefully selected words set forth the ideas which first inspired the business men to bring in to existence this autumn feast. The delegates were then asked to vote for the queen of the fete. The situation was most embarrassing. Galiantry is proverbial with the Frenchman, and to his chivalrous mind it was almost treason to select one to the discredit of the other candidates. A choice had to be made, however Above each Wcio 1 AuIDDSi duu 6dcu uSI- egate simply wrote the number of his preference on the slip provided for him and dropped it into a box
 The first count showed that the del egates were of divers opinions and no one of the candidates had a majority This necessitated another ballot. A signal was given to the brass band in attendance, and in a twinkling it was thrilling the assembled people with one of the most exciting popular airs. The music gave courage to the timid and faltering judges, so that it was only a question of few minutes before the final vote was cast and counted. This formality over, M. Brandon, mas ter of ceremonies, announced the re- suit and proclaimed the chosen queen to be Mile. Lucienne Joly. queen of the dressmakers, a Juno-like brunette who had received fl votes, thus ma king her Queen of the Autumn Feast
 Flushing with pleasure and greatly agitated, the reigning sovereign thanked the assembly for the honor conferred on her, and the committee then escorted her and her 14 maids of honor to a restaurant, where the cho- sen one was congratulated demonstra. lively by her relatives and compan- ions.

Gen. Walter Kitchener, who is sta- toned at Bermuda, is a brother of Lord Kitchener, and this fact has worked against him rather than for him. He is considered clever sol dier in England, and at the time of the war in South Africa it was thought that he would receive an i'm portant post that would become va cant He was passed over and his brother, Lord Kitchener, was asked for the reason. Tt should have gone to my brother he said, but if had given it to him everybody would have yelled 'favoritism' at the top of their voices, so I picked someone else.''
 Walter Kitchener was expected at Cape Town at a railway station once when an old lady rushed in exeitedly and asked at what platform Lord Kitchener was expected to arrive. No one seemed to know anything about his visit until it finally dawned upon the staff officer that she had heard of the arrival of his brother He in- formed her that this was only Kitch ener that was expected.

THIS QUEEN WORKS
How Paris Chooses a Fete Sov-
 ereign Each Year.
Mile. Lucienne JoIy, a Hard-Working Seamstress Was Queen of the French Capitals Autumn
 Feast This Year.

Paris.-Although France is now republic for the third time, her peo- pie still seem to banker after royalty and their taste runs in the direction of queens. They cant have a regular queen, of course, so they must be con- tented with queens of a lower degree, who are chosen in various trades and various parts of France with all due ceremony.
 From time immemorial the trades people of Paris have celebrated each carnival by electing queen from among the work people, whose chief merit is unusual beauty, the pride of birth being quite an unimportant fac tor.
 The vegetable women select their queen, the grocers theirs, the fishmar- ket makes it's choice and so on. Then these several chosen queens are brought together for an appointed committee to pass judgment on them. The queen receiving the largest num- Der of votes is raised to the highest honor and her title is-Queen of the Queens. It is strange fact that for several years. with one exception, the fish market has furnished the Queen of Queens for this joyous fete
