SUPERVISORS
TALK LITTLE
Routine Business Is Quickly
Disposed of Without
Discussion.

A laudable desire to get through
with business as soon as possible and
get home, pervaded the meeting of the
Board of Supervisors last night. There
was practically no discussion of any
of the matters that came up and every
thing went through sweetly and
smoothly.
The appropriation bill passed third
reading on the mention of its title
and the call of the roll in which there
were no dissenting voices.
Tt looked as though there might be
heated discussion at one time when
the matter of appropriating sufficient
amount to purchase an inkpot and pen
for the Ash inspector came up, but
Aylett explained so clearly and neatly
the necessity for these articles that
oil was poured on the troubled waters
and the appropriation was passed with
out dissent.
After the minutes of three previous
meetings had been read and approved,
Logan stated that he needed more time
for the report of the ways and means
committee. Appropriations were then
made for the municipal office rent,
$3.50; donation to the Leah home,

The CHILDREN
SWAN LIKE
DUCKS
Some Of the RainboW's
Victims Lost Their
Clothes.

The following detailed account of the
capsizing and sinking of the gasoline
launch Rainbow off the coast of Mo-
lokai on Sunday afternoon, in which
the lives of twenty five school chill
dren were in peril for some time, was
received yesterday by the Rev. W. B.
Oleson, secretary of the Hawaiian
Board of Missions, from Matthew Ka-
ne, dated at Halawa, Molokai, July g.:
The Halawa Sunday-school pupils
numbering forty-two in all, besides the
three men who managed the gasoline
launch, met serious accident while on
their way to attend the Hoike of the
Molokai Sunday schools at Kaunaka-
kai
The launch left here a little after 4
clock yesterday with a crowd of
about forty people. About half of
this number were children. When they
got around the Kapuupoi point the sail
was hoisted thinking that by doing so
they would get down to Kaunakakai
sometime before sunset.
While the launch was about one
quarter of a mile from shore out of
the Honoulis an unusually large swell
came up. The launch listed to one side,
that is, to the leeward side; the pas
sengers, who were all on deck, were
also moved to that side by the motion
of the boat. As this weight was too
great the ballast could not bring the
boat to its right position. The sea
came into the engine room and in
very short time the launch was upset.
It was a pitiful sight to see young
children of ten years old swimming
about. AS many as the little boat on
the launch could hold were carried
ashore. The rest of the children were
carried ashore on boards except ten
people, among whom there were five
young children, who held on to the
launch as they could find no object to
rest on.
An old lady, who was among this
number, died after one hour of ex-
canoes with helping hands were near,
the helping hands came three or four
minutes after she expired. 1t IS for
tunate that the upseting Of the launch
was seen by some cowboys who were
on the hills. They sent word from Mo
anui by telephone to our Sheriff who
sent his canoes well manned to the
scene of accident, saving the party
who chung to the upset launch, and
also brought ashore the remains OF
our dead sister in Christ.
We are thankful to Mr.. Cook, of
Kaunakakai, for coming all the way
from Kaunakakai to the scene of ac-
cident He did all he could to
help clothe those who needed such help.
Each one of these people have lost
their baggage and all. Some even
took all their clothes and they did not
have very many clothes.
Today they haven It anything worthy
TO be called clothes-they have moth
ing else to wear but their old denim
working shirts and pants.
Do you think these people win get
help in matter of clothes from those
who are able to give help?

AMBASSADOR O'BRIEN

A native living at River and Vine
yard streets picked up a little airgun
last evening and aimed it at his female
honsekeeper, saying loosely, I'm 60

replied and he pulled the trigger. The
small bullet imbedded itself in her fore
head and she had to be taken to the
hospital to have the lead extracted.

1t is universally conceded by
all who have investigated the
facts that Saul's Addition to
the city of Washington is by all
odds the most highly improved
and the most beautiful resi-
dence section in the District Of
Columbia. This opinion is JUS
tilted by the following points
of superiority.
It's delightful. elevated location and
picturesque surroundings; a perfect
system of city improvements. including
macadamzed streets. wide granolithic
sidewalks, city water, sewers, gas and
electricity. double rows OF shade trees
on every block. uniformly beautiful
homes, high-class citizenship, abso-
lutely perfect transit facilities over
one of the best car lines in the world.
nice cars: smooth rails, quick time;
no delays. Compare these distinct ad-
vantages with those offered by any
other properties in the vicinity of
Washington and you will readily per-
ceive that they are not in the same
class with Saul's Addition.
