RAILROAD FREIGHT RATES.

In another column will be found an
article from s. H Babcock criticiz.ny
some statements as to railroad freight
charges that recently appeared In these
columns. Mr.. Babcock represents the
Commercial Club Traffic Bureau, or
eanized to secure better freight rates
TO Utah.
The first point to which exception is
taken. aTd this is the main issue in
yolved in the entire subject, is that
water competition as adversely affect
Ing the transcontinental freight rates
OF the rail carriers has long since
ceased to be much IL anything more
than a mere prctcxt, or subterrupe nm
the part of those carriers.
This may, OF not not, be true. Tha
railways allege 1t as a fact. Mr. Bah.
cock declares it a subterfuge "aa is
evidenced' he says. "by the fact thar
the net earnings per mile of the Union
Pacific and Central Pacific railroads
are higher than those of any of anv
other railroads in the country west of
Chicago" He then gives figures as to
the earnings of these roads.
We are not defending the railroads
but the remark seems pertinent that
the figures presented may be perfectly
correct and yet may have no bearing
"natever upon the question as 10
whether water competition has any IN
huence upon inland rates That tho
lines referred to are making money

stances that readily suggest them
selves
we wish to remove another suspicion
from the mind OF our critic. The ar

rest with member OF our regular cdi-

agreeable. Neither was 1t suggested in

NEW EMPIRE
THEATER SOON

Some time between May l and ID
one of the finest and most up-to-date
moving picture theaters viii be opened
by Messrs. R. n Overend and Frank
Richardson at the corner of Hotel and
Bethel streets. This will be the new
Empire Theater. The first moving
picture theater was opend on that cor
ner in an old tumbledown building. The
new one, built at large outlay of
money, represents the most modern fea-
ture of well-planned and finely equip
ped theater of this kind.
The new Empire is built entirely of
concrete, that is the walls; two stories
in height are of concrete and the en-
tire floor space is eemented. Above
this great area, unobstrueted by
single column or post, is the roof with
great beams, each of which is covered
with galvanized iron. There is not a
part of the theater proper which can
be ignited or be the means of starting
a fire.
The theater will be provided with
gallery, and the gallery in the Empire
will be the highest priced section of
the building and will have opera seats.
The lower portion of the theater will
be the popular-prieed section, where
seats may be obtained for 10 and 10
cents. The gallery seats will be %
cents There will be two entrances.
One on Bethel street for the down
stairs portion and another entrance on
the Hotel street side for the gallery.
Provision has been made for row of
stores both on Hotel and Bethel streets,
but even with this space SO utilized
the theater interior will be the largest
of the kind in Honolulu The entrances
will be attractive and the interior will
be tinted in attractive colors and other
wise decorated.
We will have a first view the night
before the regular opening said Mr..
Overend Yesterday, "and | can assure
you that it will surprise you. When
| was in San Francisco | put in much
of my time going to the moving pie
ture theaters and picking up ideas. We
will have the very finest picture ma
chimes and these will present the pic
lures so steadily and clearly that there
win be no Pickering The interior of
the theater will be cool at all times.
We have built it so that there will
be a current of air cooling and driving
off the heated air.
Across the way, where the New Eng
land Bakery recently stood Mr.. Over
end and associates are clearing away
the buildings that have stood there
for so many years, preparatory to
putting in a theater which will be
one of the most uptodate of its kind.
Where the New England Bakery
stood will be the entrance, and the
theater will be erected in the rear. The
old buildings were really tumbledown
shacks and have had a varied exis-
tence. At one time they were occu-
pied by the bakery and candy store
of Horn They are among the last OF
the sold Honolulu buildings on Hotel
street to fall before the march of
progress.

NO SUFFERING TOO GREAT

Not long since, 3 young woman, suf- fering with an incurable disease, ap. piled for admission to hospital in a southern city.
 ''I know I must die, she said sim ply, to the attendant physician, "but do something to keep me alive for a little while for my babies sake. In a few years they will not need me so much '
 Her one chance lay in very painful operation, but her heart was so weak that the surgeon dared not administer an anaesthetic. Very gently he ex- plaincd the situation-the operation would make but years difference at most; it seemed hardly worth while to suffer so much for so brief a respite; she would best go home and-wait, but the little woman shook her head.
 With motherlove shining in her eyes, she allowed herself to be strapped upon the operating table and there willingly underwent the torture of the knife that gave her a few months to devote to her precious bdbies.-The March Delinea- tor.

BIC PREPARATIONS IN AFRICA FUR
 TEDDY
OVATION TO SPORTSMAN BEING PREPARED BY HUNTERS OF
 THE CONTINENT

MOMBASSA, British East Africa, March l2.-Mombassa is preparing al ready to welcome Theodore Roosevelt when he lands here the latter part of next month on his much heralded Afri- can trip.
 His coming has given a decided impe' tus to the interest in the hunting sea son.
 The governor of the protec torate, Lieutenant Colonel Sir James Hayes Sadler, is getting up program of wei come and entertainment for Roosevelt, but despite this, the greeting will be more to the great sportsman than to the former president.
 East African sportsmen were highly gratifed to learn that Roosevelt refused the offer of the authorities to grant him special hunting license that would have permitted him to kill game to an unlimited extent, instead of confning himself to two elephants, two rhinocer- oses, two hippopotami, etc., of the reg ular license.
 Lions and leopards are classed as vermin and consequently no license to kill them is required.
