STR|KEbREAKERS HAVE
LOST MUCH SLEEP

"I am still hopeful that many of
the Hawaiian strikebreakers will re-
ceive permanent employment on the
plantations where they have been work
ing since the japanese laborers
struck said L. L. McCandless yes

was laid off this morning, and 1 am
sorry that he is not retained as he
has been an exceptionally fine man.
81 know that many of the Hawai-
ians would like to stay on the plan
tations if they can get good quarters
in which to live. OF course, there
would have to be an adjustment of
the wage scale, for don't suppose
the plantations would continue paying
regular strikebreaker wages.
"Many of the Hawaiians are will.
ing to work, but in town working as
stevedores they have work for few
ays and then have to wait. They
have to live in cheap tenement rooms,
and feel certain that they would like
to take their families down to the
plantations where they would have
steady work. The strikebreakers stood
by the plantations in their time of
need. These men, mind you, had to
get up at . O'Clock in the morning
in order to get down to the train and
then worked all day, reaching town
about 8 p. m. Then it takes them
about an hour to get to their homes
and when they have had supper they
have about five hours for sleep. These
men have shown how much they want

SMALL JAPANESE
GIRL IS KILLED
tFrom Wednesdays Advertiscr)


There was a most regrettable acci-
dent on the Leahi road just before
shutdown last night. A japanese wo.
man, Tame by name, was walking down
the road with her three children, pick
ing kiawe beans. Two of the children
were helping her to put the beans in
sack while the other sat down on the
side of the road for a rest.
Tame heard the sound of an automo.
bile horn and looked round. She saw
n wagon and an automobile, the latter
passing the former and both coming at
a paod speed. She called to her child
to look out so that the little girl was
flustered and ran across the street to
her mother. Before she could reach
the other side of the road one of the
vehicles struck her and she was picked
Gp by her mother in a state of col
lapse.
The automobile kept on its way, but
the wagon, which was driven by care.
full Portuguese boy, pulled up. The
mother ran and picked up her child and
went into the Leah dairy where the
father was working. The latter called
up japanese doctor and DR.. Wayson
and finally called up the police station.
The wagon was sent out and it was
intended to take the child to the
Queens Hospital, but the father stated
that he would prefer to have the girl
sent to the Japanese Hospital, and so
1t was taken there.
After examination it was found that
the child had fractured skull and
there seemed little chance of saving its
life. The doctors did their utmost but
it gasped it's little life away about 10
o'clock.
The child s name was Savaio. She
was five years old. Her father is an
employe of the Leahi dairy by the
name of Mukai. He is said to be a
good worker and valued by his employ.
ers The mother is overcome with
grief and cannot tell very much about
the accident.
All she knew was that wagon and
an automobile came along the road to.
gether and that one Of them struck the
child after she had called to her to look
out She was unable to say whether
it was the wagon or the machine that
did the harm.
The driver of the wagon has n good
name with the firm by whom he is EN-.
ployed and seeing that he stopped i'm
mediately to render assistance, those
who are connected with the bereaved
family do not think that he was guilty
of any negligence. The general opin-
ion seems to be that the automobile
was hustling to get by the wagon and
the frightened child, running to its
r,other, was run over before the auto.
mobile could be stopped.

N||HAU COMES
HOME LEAKING
cFrom Wednesdays Advertiser,

(trom Wednesdays Advertiser)
Slightly leaking and with cracked
steam pipe the Inter.Island steamer
Niihau, Captain Oness, arrived in port
at 1870 last evening after having
spent twenty-four hours pounding on
the Kamalo Reef, along the Molokai
coast. The vessels hull is damaged,
but just how much so will not be
known until she is placed on the ma
rine railway.
left Kahului intending to go to Kau
for load of sugar. An hour after
leaving the Maui port the steam pipe
cracked and for safety the captain de-
cided to return to Honolulu. He steam
ed northward and hugged the Molokai
coast, so that if the pipe cracked en-
tirely he would be close enough inshore
to drop anchor. He continued to hug
the coast and when darkness came on
he picked light and took it for the
Kaunakakai light.
The vessel was steaming along slow
ly and suddenly the bow lifted, the
vessel shivered and before the engines
were stoppd the Niihau had slid her
entire length on the reef. Captain
Oness worked the engines but to no
purpose. The boat hung on the coral
barrier. Wireless word was sent to the
Honolulu office and the officers con-
tinued their Efforts to release the ship.
Shortly after 3 O. clock yesterday af-
ternoon the steamer was worked over
the reef and she slipped back into deep
water and started off for smoke which
came from the funnel of the steamer
Claudine, which had been despatched
to the steamer s assistance. The Nil
hau signalled that she was in no need
of help, and started for Honolulu.
Meanwhile President Kennedy and
Captain haglund of the Inter-Island
company left Honolulu on the Mauna
Kea yesterday noon and intended going
to the rescue of the stranded vessel.
The president was surprised to see the
Niihau coming along the channel late
in the day. He and Captain Haglund
were transferred to her in small boat.
The officials arrived on the steamer last
night.
"The buoy on Kamalo Reef should
be lighted at night" was President
Kennedy's comment last evening. "Ka.
malo Reef is dangerous to navigation
and navigators should be protected to
the extent of having the buoy lighted. !"

MAYOR WANTS HALL
FOR HIS BIC LuAU

mayor Fern is now looking about for
suitable hall in which to give the
Dlg luau which he is planning in honor
OF the visiting Congressman. The
Mayor would like to have the luau ont
OF doors, but he says that there is a
hoodoo chasing him around, and that
ne never plans a function of the sort
unuer u,l consideration but that it rains.
therefore, he will have the Federal
lawmakers under cover, and avoid TAX
ing any chances.
Most certainly I shall give the
luau, said His Honor yesterday. "I
am decided as far as that part of it
Is concerned. But I do not know where
snail give the affair. 1t will reauire
large hall to accommodate the guests.
and want place that will be suit,
able for entertaining the distinguished
company.
81 am now considering two or three
places, and l shall have the matter
settied before the Congressional party
arrives here, but L am not yet in a
position to say where the luau will be
heldn
Already there is considerable specu-
% w NHo lne recipients or lnVl-
tations to the Mayors luau will be.
His Honor has made more than little
reputation from the feasts which he
has given in times past, and, consider
ing the circumstances, it is thought not
unlikely that he will surpass all prior
efforts.
The invitation list, if such thing
exists. is locked up tightly in Secretary
Rivenburgh IS desk drawer, and no one
will probably know who is to partake
of the Mayors hospitality until the

MRS. WALLACE HAS PUT
BAKER OUT OF HER LIFE

Mrs. Wallace had forgotten the fance
and the two plighted their troth.
When the Alameda arrived at Homo
lulu the groom.to-be dashed up the
gangplank TO embrace his expected
bride; he was struck by her coldness,
but nevertheless she permitted him to
escort her to hotel. While Howard
was concluding the arrangements for
his wedding with Mrs. Wallace, debon.
air Baker stepped in and carried her
away to church, and when the old
love arrived back with the license Mrs.
Wallace was Mrs. Baker.
For several days all went well.
Baker was the butterfly of fashion
about the hotels of Honolulu, and his
new wife was well received on account
Of her attractiveness. And then the
hand of the law shot forth across the
sea and Baker was thrown into Jail.
Gable advices had been received from
the United States Marshal at Chicago
that Baker had wife and baby there.
The bigamist made no defense when
he appeared before the court, and even
ioked lightly when the sentence of
three years in prison and the fine of
$500 was imposed upon him for his
crime.
Mrs. Wallace did not care to talk
about her fateful game with Cupid yes
terday, but it was reported that she
confded in some of the passengers that
she had put Baker out of her life,
although he is said to have declared
that he would marry her as soon as he
served his sentence and obtained di.
vorce from his first wife.

DRUG F|END

fore sailing hour Tuesday. The wo.
man is drug fiend, using any sort of
drug she can procure. All the way
across the Pacific she made life miser.
able for the better class of passengers.
She disturbed all kinds of social amuse-
ments and church services, aud few
would venture near her stateroom.
While church services were under way
on Sunday last she broke into them
and cursed and carried on until the
meeting had to be discontinued. Her
language was foul. The passengers felt
that Captain Friele should have locked
her up, placed her under the care of
the surgeon or put her off the boat at
Nagasaki.
Many passengers stated that their
trip had been spoiled to some extent
by having TO travel on the same
vessel with the woman. Some we've

arrive in the Chinese port when the
China was due 10 sail, 1t was their

.REEXAM|NAT|ON To
Be AT KALAUPAPA

The plan of the Board of Health to
have all denominations in the future
made at Kalaupapa instead of bring
ing the applicants across to Honolulu,
has apparently met with the favor of
the people of the settlement. To the
surprise of the Board, however, the
applicants all chose DR.. f. s. Goodhue
as their examining physician.
In addition to the nineteen patients
whom the Board was requested by the
Legislature to have reexamined, there
are six Others, making twenty-six in
all who have chance to be pronounced

Chronicle. Love dreams shattered,
and with only the memory of n few
moonlit nights of courtship with her
bgamsit husband aboard an ocean linen
in the tropic seas to console her, Mrs.
Eva B. Wallace of this city returned
from Honolulu yesterday on the steam
or Alameda, which had been the scene
Of her unwitting dalliance with Dan
Cupid that resulted in broken hearts.
Behind the grim walls of the peni.
tentiary at Honolulu Raymond NJ.
Baker, scion of an established Eastern
family, is serving the first days of a
thrce.year sentence imposed upon him
for the crime of bigamy, for he mar
ried Mrs. Wallace when he had a wife
and child living in Chicago.
And somewhere Charles Howard,
who was Mrs Wallace's fiance when
she succumbed to the wiles of the
fashionable and jaunty bigamist, is try
ing to forget.
Early in MAY Mrs. Wallace, n. hand
some Young widow, sailed on the Ala
media for Honolulu with her little boy.
She was to join Charles Howard, who
had preceded her, in the Paradise of
the Pacific, and they were to be mar
ried.
On the liner also was Baker, young
man of handsome appearance and ur-
bane speech, who represented himself
as an automobile agent. The sprightly
young widow and the automobile agent
became acquainted as persons do
aboard ship and soon he made pro-
fessions of love. Both were aided by
the romance of the sea, and by the
time the steamer arrived at Honolulu

HOTEL STREET WILL
Be MADE WIDER

Arrangements have been concluded
with the owners of the property on
.he makai side of Hotel street, be-
tween Alakea and Richards streets,
whereby that thoroughfare will be wild
ened in the near future. The Terri
torial surveyor will run the lines at
once and as soon as the stakes are set
the County will improve the street.
More widening will be done opposite
the Hotel stables than at the corner
of Hotel and Alakea streets, but this
is unavoidable. An auto garage is be-
ing erected in the corner lot on Alakea
street, to be similar in design to the
Young Hotel stand in Bishop park.

CHAUFFEURS ARE
OPTIMISTIC MEN

Chauffeur Wood of the Young Hotel
auto stand, who owns one of the larg-
est machines in the public service,
states, that, despite the pessimistic
views of some Honolulans that the auto
men would suffer this summer for lack
of business, the tourist trade has kept
up so that about all the auto men are
doing well.
They are assured, he says, of large
tourist traffic for the rest of the season
and the coming winter looks better than
ever. The machines are kept busy day
and night. Although they can not com
plain about patronage of Honolulu folk,
yet they say that the tourists are very
liberal patrons indeed.
Some of the auto people have heard
that r, p. Scherwin, general manager
of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
who is now in Honolulu, has expressed
the opinion that Honolulu is really en-
titled TO a Pacific Mail boat being in
port for twelve daylight hours. This
would give time for the au.o trim
around the island. When the belt road
which Supervisor Jim Quinn is most
anxious should be not only built but
put in the finest possible shape, is com
pleted, the auto people are assured that
they will have full loads from almost
every ship for the "round theisland
tour, This trip is talked of on the
steamers by the officers, and passengers
are extremely anxious 10 make il, even

Kaluanui Agreements.

The Mayor reported on the agree
ments signed by county officials with
Chinese residents on property along the
Kaluanu beach, Koolau, whereby the
tenants have agreed to remove certain
obstacles on rights of-way which they
have granted to the county for new
section of road from the beach within
thirty days, the county agreeing to pay
them $2370. This sum is divided into
five payments to five different tenants,
as follows: 1903, SAB, $4Os, 1913 and
1898.
Mr.. Quinn stated that the securing
of the right-ofway was due largely
to the efforts of Mr.. ]. ]. Bowling,
general manager of the Castle interests
in KoOlau, Engineer Gere and the
Mayor.
Engineer Gere received authority to
call for tenders for building the new

LAW
PASSES BOARD
(From wednesdays Advertiser.)

The automobile ordinance introduced
by Supervisor James c. Quinn into the
Board of Supervisors. is now law and
fifteen days are granted to owners of
machines to learn its provisions and
obey the new rules 1t was matter
of qualification to the auto.driving SUI
pervisor that the ordinance has passed
its final reading and that Honolulu will
now have law governing the speed
and moments of machines by day and
night which will be effective in the in
terests of the pedestrian and buggy
driving public, if only the police
properly enforce it,
Taking time by the forelock one
auto owner has already had his regis
ter number painted on the lamp glasses.
Every auto must now use a red tail
light. Furthermore, it will be unlawful
for machine drivers to permit the
"muffers TO emit loud noises on the
down town streets. In brief, the Board
of Supervisors has opened the throttle
in an anti-noise crusade.
Consequent upon the passage of the
auto ordinance Supervisor Logan pre-
sented a resolution requesting the police
committee to investigate the causes of
recent cases of ALLEGED reckless driving
of machines resulting in accidents
The feature of the Logan request
which gives power to a committee to
make itself felt in various county de-
partments, caused Supervisor Quinn to
express his approval and to voice the
sentiment that this method of going
to the head of department or bureau
would prevent a subordinate from snap
ping his fingers at requests for Super
visors' committees. 1t would enable
the committee he said, to put its foot
squarely on bureaus.

Size of Curbstones.

a remark from Engineer Gere that
the curbstones now average ten inches
depth when they should be fourteen
inches, and that his former communica-
ton to the Board on this subject was
turned down because the Supervisors
thought the matter was satisfactorily
covered by law, drew forth n statement
from Quinn that there is a conflict of
authority between the Superintendent
of Public Works of the Territory, and
the Board of Supervisors as to who has
the right TO regulate matters relating
to the streets. Mr.. Quinn said he was
not inclined to criticize Marston Camp
bell, the superintendent, as Mr.. Camp
bell was assisting the county in many
ways, but this was merely question
of whether the law gave Mr.. Campbell
the authority or the county.
Mr. Quinn cited instances of where
applications had been made to the conn.
ty for right to dig up trenches in
streets, and then he would receive "A
letter later on from Superintendent
Campbell, informing the county people
that he (Campbell) had given permis-
sion to do the trenching.
Deputy County Attorney Milverton
said that he had come to the conclu-
sion that the city and county has the
power to regulate all matters concern.

to be tested. The matter was referred

no action was taken on the proposed
ordinance, he stating that too much
haste was manifested in rushing ordi-
