JOHN MARTIN 'E's
ARRIVED At SEATTLE

Seattle Times.-JOhn NJ. Martin,
chaplain of the Oahu prison in Homo

sesses a curiosity in the shape of a
newspaper written by hand, by the
prisoners of that Institution.
The paper is composed Of four pages,
written in script. The various articles,
all of which deal on prison life, are well
written, and spelling and grammar are
above criticism. Poetry and editorials
are contributed by the convicss to the
editor-in-chief. who is man who has
had some experience in newspaper work.
The money received through subserip-

which is used to purchase books and
magazines for the prisoners.

accompanied by John NJ. Martin, repre-

The possibility and advisability or
enforcing the tuberculin test for all
cows, from which milk is sold in this
county, was the chief topic of discus
sion at the open meeting held last night
by the sanitary committee of the Board
of Supervisors for the consideration of
the proposed milk ordinance. That the
tubercuin test is advisable seemed to
be the general sentiment, but how to
legislate fairly in regard to the matter
seemed to be problem.
AS originally drafted, the ordinance
required that all milk sold within the
county should be from tuberculin test
ed cows, the ordinance to go into effect
Immediately. This raised considerable
objection, D. P. R. Isenberg saying that
the cows of the county could not be
put to the test in less than years
time. He also thought that the county
should do the testing, in order to re-
lease the small dairyman from the
burden of the expense.
In reply to question from Chairman
Logan, Territorial Veterinarian Nor
gard expressed the belief that the
Board of Agriculture might undertake
the testing, were the county to furnish
the funds. He expressed the belief
that the ordinance was pretty stiff in
some respects. He called attention to
the fact that milk is sold from some
$500 cows in this county, and that put
ting all of these animals to the tuber-
culin test would take some time.
Percy Pond thought that campaign
for the putting of all cows in the coun-
ty to the tuberculin test might well be
undertaken, and expressed the belief
that Honolulu will find it comparatively
easy to keep all cows up to standard
once the test has been made.
On the other hand he believes that
the test should be made at the expense
of the authorities, though he himself
has made provision for the testing of
his cows.
Isenberg thought that the time has
come for the putting all cows to the
taberculin test, but believes that the
county should bear the expense. He
has tested his cows.
Said he: Are we going to allow
only the milk barons to sell milk, or
are we going to allow the poor man to
engage in business also. Unless the
county pays the cost of the tuberculin
test, the poor man will be driven out
of business. I am glad that the time
has come when the dairy cattle are to
be- inspected, but I certainly believe
that the county should bear the ex-
pense."

YEARS BUILDING
BREAKS RECORD
Statistics Show Forty Per Cent
More Work Than in
1903.

Building activities in this eity so far
this year exceed those of 1908 by more
than 40 per cent, according to Archi-
tect II. L. Kerr. Kerr is making up
some statistics for the annual report of
the Chamber of Commerce, and his in
vestigations show that building is great
ly on the increase in all directions.
Not only does the amount of build
ing which has been carried on through
the last year much exceed that of the
year before, but the type of the strue-
lures IS far superior, said Kerr yes
terday. "The 1908 record was swelled
by the rebuilding in Chinatown, but
even at that was not comparable with
that of this year The buildings that
have been completed since the last data
were collected, and those now under
construction, are of the very highest
type, and are an honor to Honolulu >
As the year 1908 was considered a
record breaker, the 1909 showing is
particularly satisfactory to business
men,
One of the noteworthy buildings near
ly completed is the new home for the
Yokohama Specie Bank. This structure
is of the very highest type of Glass A
far as construction is concerned, by any
edifce in the world. 1t is absolutely
ireproof, not sticksof wood or other
infammable material having been used
in its makeup.

: HAWAII DAY. WILL
Be AUGUST A-25

SEATTLE, July 21.-The Hawaii
delegation at the Alaska Yukon-Paeific
Exposition is making elaborate prepar-
ations for the celebration of "Hawaii
Day''-or rather Hawaii Days, for it
has been decided to extend the form
alities over a portion of two days, Au-
gust 81 and %. On the afternoon of
the first day formal reception viii
be held from to O'Clock in the
Washington State building, with an
elaborate ball in the evening. The
entire Hawaii delegation will assist
Commissioner and Mrs. Knudsen in re-
ceiving and entertaining, and Kaai IS
orchestra will furnish the music. In
vitations will be sent out within few
DAYS to the directors and officials of
buildings, and their ladies, as well as
to some of the prominent Seattle citi-
zens.
On the second day the entertainment
of the general public in the Hawaii
building will be on an exceptionally
elaborate scale. Fifty thousand
"Aloha' buttons will be distributed
if so many are necessary, a special
musical program will be arranged by
Kaai's Hawaiian orchestra, and bana-
mas will be distributed to the multitude
in so far as the supply that can be OBJ
+ainrd will hermit
1t is hoped that Governor Frear and
a large delegation from the islands will
find it convenient to be present on this
occasion to assist in making the day
a notable one.
Commissioner Knudsen also has ten
tative plans for an informal luncheon
or smoker dinner to be given for the
leading officials and directors of the
exposition, on one of the two days.

Seattle Letter Carrier

From Sound.

SEATTLE, Wash, July 21.-In the
big visitors register in the Hawaiian
building, at the Alaska Yukon Expcsi-
ton, William L. Lindsey, Carrier No.
5, Seattle postoffiee, entered his name
and occupation as just given, and then
wrote in the column headed-''When
do you expect to visit Hawaii, the
following: fFrom Seattle to Honolu.
In in a launch-1910 or 1911.''
To one of the Hawaii officials who
happened to be near at the time, Mr..
Lindsey then unfolded his plans fol-
a little holiday vacation, which, if he
carries out, will constitute one of the
most daring adventures on record. Not
only does he propose to make this
twenty four hundred-mile trip in a lit.
tie 34-foot gasoline launch, but he
states that he will do it without the
aid of other instruments for naviga
ton than an ordinary magnetic com
pass.

RESERVOIR SITE IS
.RECE6ED To HAWAII

The Diamond Head reservoir site.
which was taken by the War Depart
ment as a part of the military reserva-
ton, has been receded to the Territory,
and there is probability that still more
of the reservation will be given back
to the community in time.
This is one of the matters which the
Governor took up with the Washington
authorities on the occasion of his last
trip east. Nothing was done in regard
to the matter for some time, and the
Governor wrote to Washington urging
some action.
Yesterday Governor Frear received a
copy of an order giving back to Hawaii
the 5.52 acres comprising the reservoir
site. The order stated, also, that, al
though the rest of the Diamond Head
reservation is continued temporarily, it
would be continued only until it should
be determined how much of the land is
needed for permanent reservation.
