WASHINGTON, January IL Delay
ed in Transmission) "A decision in the
charges against District Attorney
Breckons and also some fnality in the
matter of the charges against Circuit
Judge Kepoikai are expected here with
in few days. The Department of
Justice is still very reticent about the
case of Kepoikai, but this is understood
to be because of desire to allow Ke.
poikai to resign. 1t is thought here
that his resignation may even now be
on the way to Washington. The under.
standing, as already cabled, is that Mr..
Kingsbury will be named as his sue
eessor.
Little is known regarding the out.
come of the Breckons charges. Attor.
ney General Bonaparte has gone over
the Harr report and forwarded it and
his recommendations to President Roos-
evelt. The matter now awaits the Pres
ident Is decision, which may come any
day. When the Attorney General had
completed his study of the report, a
copy was forwarded to Senator Warren,
/, of Wyoming, who is understood to have
asked for it.
The President has directed that the
report, or at least certain features
thereof, be forwarded to District Attor-
ney Breckons for his perusal and reply.
Whether this has been done at the re.
quest Of Senator Warren is not learned.

LOCAL BREEDERS

r. II. Dietert, dredging engineer of
San Francisco, who has been in Homo
lulu since the last arrival of the Hi
lonian, departed for San Francisco on
the Mongolia. He has devoted most of
his engineering career to money-saving
devices on dredging plants, and is also
connected with the San Francisco
Bridge Company. one of the well-known
dredging companies of the Pacific
Coast.
Mr.. Dietert while here looked over
the dreagers and all equipment of the
Hawaiian Dredging Company and made
many valuable suggestions concerning
its adaptation for the big Pearl Har-
Dor dredging contract.
The visitor was very much surprised
to find how really up.to-date Honolulu
is, having something of an idea formed
before coming that he would find a
primitive town and things more or less
behind the times. After inspecting the
Hawaiian Dredging Company's equip
ment, he said that the plant for it's
size favorably compares with others.

what it will do, before they take

GOV. FREAR AGREES
WITH BABB|TT'S PLAN

Emphatic approval is given by Gov
ernor Frear to the ideas of Superintend-
ent of Public Instruction Babbitt as
contained in his bill for safeguarding
the health of the public school children.
The bill as drafted by Mr.. Babbitt has
been submitted to the Governor for his
consideration and there is every indi-
cation that he will do all in his power
to have it become a law.
"We do not possess such a service
at the present time" said Governor
Frear yesterday. "There is no doubt
as to its Importance and l consider it
essential.
If the bill becomes law as it stands,
the Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton will be chief of the department
and will be able to carry on the work
in Systematic fashion with the aid
of competent assistants. There is no
such provision at the present time and
the officials of the Department of Pub
lie Instruction consider that it is a
matter that needs immediate attention

Two of the big aquatic events OF
the season hereabouts have already
taken place. On Monday, July 5, the
Detroit Motor Boat club pulled off its
second annual regatta. The develop
ment of the motor boat TO point
where it was satisfactory for racing
has come only recently, hence this
form of sport is still somewhat in an
undeveloped state. The course of the
Detroit club races laid around that
beautiful park owned by the city, Belle
Isle, thus permitting great crowds to
witness to advantage the events. And
there were many of them-as many as

The second Aquatic races which
have already taken place this year are
those at Monroe. For something like
ten years Monroe has been occupying
a considerable sized spot on the map

promotion of aquatic sports The re-
gattas Of it's yacht club have become
events in boating circles, and every
year that they are held sees increasing
crowds in attendance.

is technically known as the Fourth

A generation ago, in the early '70s, the
eyes of the boating world were pretty
steadily fixed on Monroe. It's fame
then extended not only to the Atlantic
ocean, but even spread across the
pond and for time caused a tremor
of perturbation in the aristocratic
bosoms of our cousins in Johnny BulHs

a sick man in their boat, in no wise
served to restore the equanimity of
the Britons, but they carefully avoided
future contests with the sturdy and
wiry Monroe boys by establishing a
rule that nobody but gentlemen"
should be permitted to contest there
after; and then proceeded to define
gentlemen" as people who were not
compelled to work for living, with
a subtle intimation that their fathers,
also, should be gentlemen" Inasmuch
as the Monroe boys were all sturdy
workmen, and in most cases descend
ants of the French pioneers who origin
ally redeemed Monroe from it's state Of
forest wildness, and inasmuch as they
had inherited no wealth. the aristocrat-
ic oarsmen of England were thereafter
relieved of fear of their ascendency be-
ing disputed by the "mudbills" Of the
western hemisphere.
How Boating Started.
The history of boating on the River
Raisin in those days OF the past was
founded, to some extent, on senti-
ment. In the patriot war in the '30s,
in Canada, a certain General Johnson
to avoid capture was lying hidden in
the marshes along Lake Erie; and his
daughter, Kate Johnson, a heroic and
winsome young woman, in the dark
ness of the night threaded the intri-
cate channels to his place Of conc cal
ment in a light lap-streak boat, return
ing before the dawn. When the war
was over this boat was given to Joseph
M. Sterling by Miss Johnson, who was
one of his close friends.
Late in the SOS, when the first be-
ginnings of the Northwestern Rowing
association were rounding into form,
the impetus of boating found a lodg-
ment in Monroe. Mr.. Sterling had four
boys, and these, with some of their
intimate friends, obtained from Mr..
Sterling the little boat, chrisened it
the "Kate Johnson" and organized a
rowing club. In the succeeding years
other boat clubs sprang into existence.
and from then on Monroe boasiag
