RUN ON PATENT MEDICINES
IS CAUSED BY DRY SUNDAY

Some of the drug stores did a rush
ing business in patent medicines and
alcohol last Sunday as a result of the
Sunday closing law and the visit of
the feet.
Comparatively few of the sailors are
boozers. In fact, it has been remarked
many times what fine lot of boys
they are. But they do not take kind
ly to being foreibly deprived of their
bitters, any more than do some of the
local people. Evidently they have Wis
tied other dry towns before coming
to Honolulu and they know the ropes.
Some of them managed to get enough
from street corner bootleggers to see
them through the day, but others, per-
haps less fortunate, had to resort to
sterner measures. That accounts for
the fact that in front of one of the
downtown eating places last night was

SUGAR CROP PAU
END OF MONTH
Continued From Page one.)

The Missourian, which sails Friday
night, viii get full cargo for the At
lantic seaboard. The Lurline will carry
on her next trip to the Coast, $50 tons
of sugar to Crockett refinery.
The small portion of the season 8
crop not handled through the Factors,
is almost as far along as the rest of
the output. Honolulu plantation is
rather behind hand, owing to the labor
difficulties which interfered with the
work Of the refinery, but the machinery
is being driven to its full capacity and
no time is being lost.
Hutchinson plantation is getting its
crop off in fine shape, and all of that
sugar will doubtless be out of the way
in a very short time.
The Lurline and the Hyades, which
are scheduled to sail about the Both,
will clean up the last of Castle &
Cooke s sugar for the year. Seventy
two thousand tons is the total output
of the Castle & Cooke plantations for
the season. In addition to this, the
Makee Sugar Company, for which Cas-
tie G. Cooke act as forwarding agents,
has turned out 5000 tons.
