Churchill Settlers Lose Their Homesteads

Louis j. Cohn, register of the gov
eminent land Office at Carson City, has
notified twenty settlers ON the Truclee-
Carson irrigation project, in Churchill
county, thai their homestead entries
have been cancelled because they have
failed to pay two of their installments
for government water. These settlers
have just completed new homes and
put the fields in shape to produce, and
hoped to have the time of payment ex-
tended, but the government has re-
fused to give them any extensions of
time and has ordered the homesteads
cancelled Summarily.

SHIPPERS WEIRD YARN.

Chroniele-Captain j. o. Youngren,
the popular commander of the Matson
liner Enterprise, which arrived here
Wednesday, said yesterday that the
immense crater of KiIauea, on the Is
land Of Hawadi, thirty-two miles from
Hilo, had again become active. The
crater presented a fine sight from the
bridge of the Enterprise as it threw
up columns of la1lten lava into the
air. Captain Youngren says that the
immense fountain of lava and smoke
was visible for seventy miles out at
sea. The lava boiling over the pit of
the volcano fell $50 feet from its
summit.

Worked Out to a Very
Successful Conclusion

Honolulu was en- fete yesterday, from
the hour of nine clock when the first
gaily decorated automobile wheeled in
to the Palace grounds to take its place
in the Floral Parade, until midnight,
when the last dance of the colonial
ball was played By Kaai's orchestra.
The parade was better than any of the
previous ones, still higher placing the
mark for the committees to come 20 aim
at; the street carnival was quite as
much of success as something alto
gether new to the great majority of the
residents could be expected to be on
the first time, while the colonial ball
at the Young was scene of gaiety,
beauty and mirth.
The weather was perfect but for the
momentary showers that drove across
the reviewing grounds at Kapiolani
park, and the discontinue from the
few drops that fell was not at the
actual rain but at the prospect that it
might last. The arrangements at the
Capitol were splendid, the parade be-
ing started without the slightest de-

lay, but there was a wait at the re.
viewing end, consequent on the dis
lance of this park from the center of
the town. This delay was not sufficient
to dampen the ardor of the immense
crowd congregated at the park, how
ever, and the slight patience necessary
was fully paid for when the parade re-
united at the park entrance and swept
down the track to where the judges
were waiting to award the we'll earned
prizes.
Enthusiasm was higher than ever
before at the annual event, while the
crowd on the streets at night, which
was somewhat petrifed at the begin.
ming, soon grasped the idea that
street carnival was something in which
everyone must take a hand to enjoy
themselves and did so. There was
scarcely mask in sight at clock.
By nine there were nearly two hum
dred in masquerade costume on the
streets and hundreds masked and load
ed with confetti.
Last night the hard worked mem,
bers of the 1909 Floral Parade COM
mittee slept peacefully, satisfied that
their efforts had succeeded in uphold
ing the reputation of the community.
The parade started on the minute
and moved without a hitch along the
appointed route, the presence of the
boys of the Fifth Cavalry at the head
of the parade adding greatly to the
effect. Following them came the au-
tomobiles, not so many as had been
hoped for but each one beautiful and
the whole forming magnificent show.

they rode through the streets, splendid

MOTORCYCLE
RACES TO-DAY

The motorcycle meet viii come off
this afternoon at Kapiolani Park, and
the main attraction will be five-mile
race between Jim Herriek on FIVE
horsepower Indian and S. R. Berger on
a six horsepower Reading Standard.
The race will start promptly at three
o clock and will be well worth seeing
as there is a question of some age to
be decided by the race. Herriek is at
a disadvantage as he weighs nearly
sixty pounds more than his opponent
and has less power in his machine, but
thev are both very confident of win
ming and there are several wagers up
on the result.
Tn addition to this race there will be
open events over various distances and
attempts to lower the Hawaiian records
from one up to ten miles.

CHARLOTTE C.
IS LAUNCHED

There was a very successful launch
ing down at the Myrtle club Yesterday
morning when the trim little yawl
Charlotte C, built and owned by George
Crozier, slipped from the launching
scow into the water, just as Miss Flor
ence Crozier broke the wine bottle over
the bows and repeated the mystic for
mula that gives craft name and
luck.
High tide was due early in the morn
ing but the launching did not take place
at that time as the hull of the boat
had to be moved from the back of the
clubhouse onto a seow and then towed
to deep water where she was allowed
to slide off into the water.
Mr. Crozier took care that everything
was done in shipshape style. st. Peter
must have been in genial mood about
that time for everything went off in
great shape and the sailor snpersti-
| ton about a launching has been salts
fed in every way. In addition to the
Saxon ideas of launching some local
ones were added. Proper kahuna was
done by placing three chicken feathers
on the bowsprit, an ava root on the
cabin house and hanging bottle of
| ssSquare face from the pumpkin.
The rigging and mast are all ready
to be put in place and the yawl will
be ready for her trial spin within a
month. Her iron keel shoe has not yet
been put on but this will be done this
week after the hull has been hauled out
on the ways.
The little craft sets well in the water
and. when she is drawn down to her
lines by the weight of the keel and
inside ballast, will have as pretty an
appearance as one could wish to see
The overhangs have been nicely judged
! and the slight tumble home is just
enough to give the appearance of speed
Mr.. crozier and those who have worked
with him have done a splendid pieef
of work and certainly deserve that th'
Yacht should have the speed and steadi
ness that her appearance prophesies.

TENDER kUkUI
ON THE WAY
Hawaii's Lighthouse Steamer
Is En- Route to
Honolulu.

The Lighthouse tender Kukui sailed
yesterday from Mare Island for Ho-
nolulu, news of her departure being
received by the Merchants Echange.
The Kukui was built especially for
service in Hawaiian waters and is at
tached to the lighthouse bureau here
for use IN carrying supplies to the
various lighthouses, looking after
buoys, and generally to be at the beck
and call of the naval officer in charge
of the local lighthouse service The
vessel was christened the kukui, the
name being supplied from Honolulu,
the kukui being tree which bears a
nut which is full of oil, and the Ha-
'waiian word for a light is also stku-
knl. In olden times quantity of
kukui nuts laid in torch of leaves
and lighted produced glaring light,
and the name was suggested as being
particularly appropriate for the name
of lighthouse tender. The Kukui is
about the size of the Inter-Island
steamer Kinau, and has thousand
horsepower. 1t is likely that she will
bring along lot of supplies and light
house materials, thus saving freight
charges.
Captain Moses, u s. n, in charge
of the lighthouse district in Hawaii al
present, has made efforts to learn wheI

but received no reply to his cable
