HAWAIIAN As ORATOR
AND SOCIAL LION

News etter-" Yes,' said the re-
turned tourist, "there are at least two
very remarkable traits about the Ha.
waiian natives. First, every mothers
son of them is a born orator. Many
time during the late election | have
stopped, spell-bound by the graceful
gestures and torrential flow OF language
that issued from the mouth of some
dry-goods box speaker on the street
corner. could not understand word
of his discourse, but the rhythmical
regularity of his periods and the deli
cate shadings of his tones attracted
me.
"What is he talking abouti" l ask.
ed my kamaaina friend.
''Oh,' replied the old resident, "the
native is never at loss for subject.
AT the present moment this local
Demosthenes has wandered away from
his subject, which was supposed to be
a red hot endorsement of the Home
Rule party. He is temporarily portray.
ing the beauties of the land of Aloha,
and if he receives encouragement
enough, may wander on for hours at.
tempting to depict attractions which
are beyond the scope of language. The
n4tives of every social class have an
innate conception of true courtesy.
They prove equal to every occasion,
and are never at loss under the most
trying tests. Attire a Hawaiian in
evening dress, and if he should happen
to be ignorant of American social Ell.
quette, he will at least blunder grace.
fully. How different from many of
our social aspirants, who after anxious
ly consulting the powers that be in
such matters, manage to give the i'm
preston of country pumpkin in a
drawing room, because devoid of this
invaluable natural nobility.

ALAMEDA IN TODAY.

! With a fair list of passengers and
considerable freight, the good old fer.
ryboat Alameda is due to arrive this
morning at seven O'Clock according to
a wireless from her yesterday morning.
The Alameda has over -four hundred
bags of mail for Honolulu. That the
tourist season to the Islands has about
drawn its last breath for few months
to come is shown by the number of
people who are arriving on the Alameda.
She is usually pretty full, it being un,
usual when she has less than eighty
passengers on board as on this trip.
For the next three months Honolulu
may expect the greater part of the
steamers passing through and coming
here to have considerable unoceupied
passenger space. On the return trip
of the Alameda, however, she will have
every bit of space filed. There are
nearly one hundred and twenty people
booked for the voyage.

CARTER SORRY
FOR WIRELESS
CONTINUED from Page one.)

Legislature, proper provisions replac-
ing those which did not cover all the
necessary ground.
"Governor Frear, i understand, did
not favor the bill ON account of the
fact that it provided the license to be
taxed only ON those operating wireless
for commercial purposes. AS a mat.
ter of fact, l think they should make
no distinctions in the matter, but that
all companies or people operating wire
Less should be taxed the same. The air
IS free, to be sure, but the wireless
has become of too much value both in
the interests of commerce and of human
ity to be used by reckless hands. At
1lre present time, when a man wants to
send an important message to one of
the other islands, he is sometimes mott
Aed that there is nothing doing until
the sehoOlboys have given up the air.
This is not right. Scientific work is
all right, but the promiscuOus use of
abe atmosphere by people who have
Snly pleasure, or, at least nothing of
real value, in view, should not be al
lowed.
"Hawaii is ahead of the Pacific Coast
IN the installation of great power sta
lions, and it seems a pity that she did
aot get in ahead of the Coast in the
matter of legislative protection of the
GiTeIass companies. The value of the
wireless cannot be overestimated. 1t

Ehat great things may be accomplished
from the humanity standpoint. Had it
not been for the aerograms which flash

uyerhanging fog between the Republic
and the vessels coming to her aid,
terrible catastrophe would undoubtedly
have been the result.
$50 it is in Hawaii. There will come
n day when the Hawaii wireless will be
the means of saving lives at sea. But
If there is not some way that the COM
Paniss may be protected SO that they
are certain of the time they may use
xhe atmosphere for sending long mes
sages, the wireless here win always be
an uncertain quantity. Any little
mechanism may intercept messages and
prevent them from reaching their des-
tfnati0ns. Now that the Governor has
refused TO sanction the bill introduced
and passed up to him by the Legislature,

Alesia Not Coming.

The Hamburg-Ameriean tramp steam
er Alesia, which has been on the due
list here for the past week, will not stop
at Honolulu. She had only small
amount of cargo for this port, it is said,
and consequently has not deemed it
worth while to make call here. The
freight which the Alesia has for Honolu-
lu win probably be shipped down here
on one of the regular steamers. The
Alesia belongs to the company which
has sent several big tramp steamers
here during the past year or so.

throughout the countryside. These con sists of ont less than 16 persons with an organizing secretary, who must be paid The necessary books and rubber stamp are supplied by the government at cost price, and suitable cases for the carriage of the eggs arerrfurnished free of cost for the first year. These cases are made of cardboard, and the packing, which consists of wood, wool or light shavings
 is sweet. clean and odorless, and causes no litter. The secretary or the "egg cir cle" pays cash down for all eggs re- ceived. Each egg has its brand, so that bad or dirty egg can be tracked back to the farm from which it comes The eggs are sent to depots in the towns where deliveries will be made, if possible, twice week. In Adelaide alone it is ex- pected that from 2o.oo0 to 5000 dozen eggs a week will be taken by the big caterers, hotels and private restaurants. Experience has shown that superior quail ity stimulates the demand and sets up in- creased consumption. In actual operation the egg-carrying eases arriving by road or rail from distances up to 300 miles contain 50 small percentage of cracked or broken eggs that the loss Is negligible. Tho testing at the receiving depots is by electric light. A bad egg is discovered immediately aftsr it arrives and is not allowed to pass on to the consumer, while the sender is promptly warned. Each egg goes through the hands of the grader, who weeds out all under two ounces in weight. These lightweight eggs go to make egg pulp. The few cracked ones. of course. after being tested for quality, are sold to the confectioners. The sys- tenn is run on cooperative lines. The consumer has to pay something more for guaranteed grade eggs-the increase in price does not exceed penny a dozen- and the surplus Is handed back to the egg producers on q proportional basis.
