Somehow today the sense Of his isola-

{ EXPLORER Of
ARCTIC SEA

Member of Schwatka's
Expedition Now in
Honolulu.

81 don't see why there is so much
of craze to find the North Pole, for
we have known for long time that
that region is an open polar sea.
B. s. D6nahue of San Francisco, who
arrived on the Alameda and will be a
guest at the Moana Hotel for about
a month, gave the above opinion yes
terday while discussing polar expedi-
tions for in 1873 he was member of
Lieutenant Sehwatka IS expedition
which went in search of the remains
of Sir John Franklin and party.
When asked about the expedition Mr..
Donahue said that it was so long ago
that he has almost forgotten the details.
The party sailed north through the
Hudson Bay in the hundred-ton schoon-
er Gotham With Lieutenant Sehwatka
were some scientists and an illustrator
for New York publication. The only
way in which Mr.. Donahue could be-
come member of the expedition was
to sign on as the amanuensis of the
illustrator.

through necessity for food most of the

that Sir John g bones finally found a

Mr. Donahue was here about twenty.
five years ago while he was making
tour of the world. He came here on
a vessel from Australia and was in
town only few hours. He found Ho-
nolulu an interesting city then. It's
present prosperity he believes to be due
to the activity of the Federal govern
ment in constructing so many perma-
nent military works and he believes
that this prosperity will continue. He
also believes that the present difficulty
in transportation between Honolulu and
the Coast should be remedied and that
a suspension of the coastwise law might
bring it about.

DIAMOND TOM
M'kAy DEAD
Famous Orient Representative
of Pacific Mail Passes
~,@a Away.

Tom Mckay, the famous Far East
ern representative of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, and lately Harri-
mans personal representative in the
Orient, died in San Francisco last week
at the Faimont Hotel.
No man in the transportation bust
ness is more widely known than was
Tom Mckay. He had a striking per-
sonahty, suave manner, and a PEN
chant for loud dress, which, however
was just Toms style. His waistcoats
were marvels of color and his dia-
mond's were generally large and of
wonderful brilliance. Tom s loud dress
and his diamonds were one of his big
advertisements. He always wore silk
hat, even in the Orient.
Mckay was frequent visitor in Ho-
nolulu, where he had large number
of intimate friends. In fact, nearly all
patrons of the Pacific Mail and other
lines calling at Yokohama were Tom IS
friends, for there he met them all and
advised them over what lines they
should or ought to travel. He passed
through Honolulu a couple of months
ago, and before leaving for the Coast
said he hoped the trip would do him
good, as he was not feeling altogether
well. On his return to San Francisco
from New York he became quite i'll.
Mckay was born in Missouri, and be-
fore going to the Orient was for fifteen
years the San Francisco agent of the
Burlington route. He was a great re
contour, and was as much at home talk
ing to prince or nobleman as to the
humblest tourist.
During McKay's illness he found no
tTuer friend than Vice President r. 2.
Schwerin of the Pacific Mail, who call
ed upon him nearly ev,>rv day. Although
Mckay earned a princely salary for a
score of years, it is said that he left a
very small estate, owing to his chart
table acts and his habit of giving his
friends costly presents. Mckay was
sixty-fve years of age.
Chalmers Graham said yesterday
that to arrive at Yokohama and not be
met by Tom. Mckay will be feature
greatly regretted by men whose bust
ness or pleasure calls them across the
Pacific frequently.

MISSED QUARRY
BY HALF 4 DAY

Chief Leal returned yesterday from
Maui with Officer Apana, after making
search for Chinese runaways from
the British S. S. Scottish Monarch. He
went to Puunene and interviewed
luna who said he had seen strange
Chinaman about the place. He ques-
toned the man, who talked fairly good
English and was told that he was mere
" visiting some friends on the plan
tation! When shown a picture of some
of the deserters the luna picked out
one and identified him as the one who
had been hanging about the place.
The luna saw the Chinaman on Fri
day morning and on Friday afternoon
when Leal and Apana made the search
he was gone, and, as far as the officers
could learn had not been seen again
mp to the time they left Maui on Sat
urday.

CLOSE SALOONS,
SAYS MOOLLEY
Temperance Worker Makes a
Strong Plea for Prohibition
in Territory.

TIE saloon came in for round ar
raisslment at the hands of the Hon
oraAle J. G. Woolley last night. Mr..
Woplley delivered his address at the
Recognized Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter Day Saints.
The speaker said that there are 1853
saloons in this Territory, and dwelt
upon the changes which have taken
place with regard to the attitude of
the government toward the liquor dis
.pensary. ''Under the old monarchy
said he, "though the kings were drink
ing men, the common people were not
allowed to frequent saloons. Under
King Kalakaua all this was changed,
the saloon was thrown open to the COM
mon people. and with only 100 years
preparation they were forced to face
a problem which has proven too much
for the white races with 1000 years
of experience behind them.
Mr.. Woolley said that the way to
save the Hawaiian from temptation is
to close the saloon. He made strong
argument in favor of making the en-
tire Territory prohibition, and said
that the Hawaiians have the power in
their own hands to put stop to the
liquor evil could they only see fit to
make use of the remedy.
An excellent song service preceded
the address. Miss Frieda Klein sang
solo in manner which evoked re-
marks of admiration from Mr. Woolley.

OFFICERS OF THE CABINET
CONFER WITH PRESIDENT
Attorney. General Wickersham the Last to Dis
cuss State Affairs at Beverly Many
Appointments Made.

and Secretary of Agriculture Wilson.
THESE visits go to show how closely
the President has kept his hand upon
the helm Of government and how the
sense of responsibility for the fulfil
ment of the duties of his office has
been constantly present with him.
Probably no President before him has
taken summer vacation and done so
much comprehensive work. He has
made an unusual number of Federal
appointments, due to the selection. Of
about 300 census supervisors.
This latter task has been an onerous
one because of the care exercised to
eliminate unworthy applicants and TO
name competent men not likely to al
low politics to influence their activi-
ties. These appointments have been
put out in four or FIVE different Install
ments. The President has gone over
the lists man by man and held up to
the very last the names of supervisors
in the big and populous centers. Those
appointments were of greater import
ance than in the country districts.
Throughout the country generally there
is to be a supervisor for ever Congress
sional district, which means for about
every 100000 Of population. But the
big cities have been organized so that
each will have but one supervisor, one
for New York, one for Brooklyn, one
for Philadelphia. one for Chicago and
so on through nearly all cities of the
first-class. Therefore some of the super
visors will have charge of tb~ Senumera-
