gineer in charge Of the work, to pre-
pare TO begin on the lower canal. This
ditch will be twenty four and half
miles long, and will have nearly Eve
times the capacity Of the upper canal,
already finished. About 100000 has
been expended on surveys and other
preliminary work already, SO that
everything is practically ready to COM
mence on the big job at once. Three
of the large plantations, paauhau, Ho-
nokaa and the Pacific Mil Company,
have already contracted for total Of
Approximately 46,500,a00 gallons of wa
ter. 1t is estimated that an amount
not exceeding 100000 will be required
to complete the lower canal, and this
it is said. will be done ia about
eighteen months.
By an enactment of the Territorial
Legislature, the company is exempt
from taxation for period of ten years
from the first of January, 1909. The
company has reserved the right to pur-
chase bonds at any time on six months
notice before January |, 1920, at the

| The lower canal, the one on which
construction work will begin within .
very few days, will start at an eleva-

! than the upper canal. After the water
| enters the intake it will be carried in
| virtual tunnels which will not allow i
to see daylight until about ten miles

that it may also be used for cane

Captain Babcock of the United
States transport Sheridan is man VINO
stands little or no trifing, and his repu-
tation for this has gone far and wide.
But there were two young men in this
city who apparently had never heard OF
the aforesaid Captain, for they tried
to make a clean getaway for San Fran
cisco yesterday without the usual little
preliminary of securing official trans
portation.
Sad, sad. indeed, was the fate of
those two gentlemen, for they were
hailed unceremoniously from their hid
ingplaces long after the good ship was
supposed to be pounding the green bill
lows, and dumped to the Oceanic dock,
the passage medium for them being
small manila rope which they were fore
ed to go hand under hand down. Cap
tain Babcock delayed the sailing of the
Sheridan exactly forty-five minutes IN
order that thorough search of the big
froopship for would-be free passen-
gers might be had. And the two were
caught Who they were could not be
learned, but they both were well-dress-
ed and appeared as if they should be
able to pay passage. Slowing away on
the Army transports has got to be
quite the proper thing in street-corner
society, but it is to be doubted If the
wise seagoing buns will in the future
try anv funny business on Captain
Rabeoek = boat N
Watch for Smugglers.
It is understood that the customs Of
ficials were on the lookout for GER
tain young man of this city who has
been. it is said, in the habit of ~smug.
Cling four or FIVE hundred cigars ashore
each trip of the transport from the
Orient. The cigars in question are said
TO be of the very finest variety. In the
future. also, the inspectors will have
sharp ewes out for opium smuggling,
and will closely examine all stray pack
ages brought ashores As yet there has
been no indication of any attempt to
smnggle the drug in this port, but that
there will be now that the exclusion
act has gone into force there IS little
