HIGH DIVER MAKES
HIS LAST DIVE

Towers, the high diver, made his
last sensational plunge last night at
the Chutes. breaking his neck in the
shallow tank. With q big crowd Of
pleasure seekers surrounding the foot
of the slender 97-foot ladder from
which he nightly has been making his
thrilling leap, the diver, whose real
name is John Mangels, hurtled
through the sheet of flame on the
surface of the water, but did not come
up.
He had miscalculated, it is pre-
sumed, and instead of quickly coming
to the surface had struck the bottom
with death-dealing force He was
quickly removed and, although alive
when taken to the hospital, he is not
expected to surplye the injury.-San

oregon, are invited to call on Peter
son & Wilson at their offices in the
Smith-Crawford building in Pendleton
or in the Post building at Athena.
Through arrangements made with
reliable real estate agents they are in
position to offer some splendid bar
gains in wheat, fruit, alfalfa, and
other farm lands. The recent ex-
tension of the railroad into that
country has caused great real estate
activity and people interested in buy
ing lands in that new country where
the population is increasing at the
rate of more than a thousand a year
will do well to investigate at once.

he. There is need Of legislation which

She JUST WOULD NOT Be

vessel appeared off port yesterday
morning from the Colonies. She was
a first'class passenger smartly gowned
and wore a patrician look which be-
came her well.
DIR. Ramus, the United States quar-
antine officer, was astonished. 1t was a
delicate matter to deal with deter
mined lady of this type. He sent a
polite request to the lady to appear and
undergo the usual requirements, but
she sent a curt refusal. The doctor
notified the captain and he endeavored
to pursuade the lady that she was max
ing a grave error, but to no purpose.
Finally, DR.. Ramus decided to per
nit the vessel to enter but gave strict
orders that the belligerent passenger
be compelled to remain aboard while
the ship lay in port.

SOLONS VISIT
CITY SCHOOLS

Honolulu s schools were visited by
members of the Congressional party yes
terday morning. The Congressman were
whirled from school to school in autos,
and in this way most of the large
schools, public and semi-public, were
seen. The party was accompanied by
Superintendent of Public instruction
Babbitt, and the entertainments given
by the pupils were of great interest
to the lawmakers.
The first visit was made to Saint
Louis College, where the Saint Louis
band greeted the visitors with music.
Representative Barchfeld of Pittsburg
made an address to the boys. The next
visit was to the Kamehameha Schools,
the Girls School being first inspected,
and then the Boys. Following the visit
to the schools, established through the
benevolence of the late Princess Pauahi
Bishop, Kalihiwaena was invaded.
There the upper grade scholars sang

the many Southerners in the delegation.

AT Kaiulani school, where the visitors
were astonished at the many nationali-
ties, they were decorated with bead
leis. The flag salute was given and
Congressman Prince responded to the
request for a few remarks. The Re-
formatory School for Girls, adjoining,
was next visited. Here they saw the
lace work which is taught to the girls.
The Central Grammar school gave a
rousing reception and Representative
Reeder was spokesman for the law
makers this time. At Pohukaina school,
club-swinging exhibition was given to
the music of the Merry Widow waltz.
The pupils were led by Chinese boy.
Mr.. Padgett addressed the pupils. At
the Royal school the visitors were treat
ed to an unusual spectacle. The scholars
were just pouring out of the building
to form into line outside. The fine dis
cipline which prevailed was the subject
of favorable comment on the part of
the Congressional folk. Finally, at the
Normal School, luncheon was served in
the open air under a new arbOr.

WARRIORS READY
FOR SPEED TEST

With all the ships of the Pacific
fleet in first-class condition, officers OF
the warships expect to make new speed
records in the maneuvers Off Maui next
week. The course for the speed tests
will be, westward from Maalaea Bay
on the leeward side of the island, run
ming parallel with the coast, and then
turning at full speed, finishing the
trials just before reaching the anchor
ages. The trials will last four hours.
Admiral Sebree hopes to find wharf
space for all eight ships when the feet
returns from Hilo next week. The men
will be paid off on that day.
Admiral Sebree yesterday returned
the calls Of the various consuls who
have already left their cards with the
commander.in-ehief.
One Of the fleet officers is quoted as
follows with reference to the coming
speed tests:
"The ships in my mind are able to
make at least 81 knots without very
much trouble, and / would not be at
| all surprised to see them go much fast
er than that. 1t will mean lots Of
hard work for the men down below at
the fires, but every ship in the fleet is
determined to beat the record of her
sistership.
"Most of the men are green in the
engine rooms, but they had chance
to get used to the hard work coming
down from San Francisco, and when
the signal to go ahead is given from
the flagship Tuesday morning they will
jump to their work like seasoned men.
"Most of the ships in this feet made
over 81 knots on their trial trip, and
the eight chief engineers are confident
that they will be able to do just as
well if not better than they did before
they were accepted by the government.
"Most people on shore do not realize
what terrible test it is to go at top
speed if only for few hours, but il
they were constantly on board ships
they would know.
can we hope for is clear weather,
and a fairly smooth sea and think I
am safe in saying that the world will
receive some figures which will aston.
ish them. All the officers from the
admirals down are waiting to see the
results posted, and among the men the
same feeling exists.
"We officers, who have been on
board torpedo boats or torpedo boat
destroyers, know what speed is, but
when it comes to the big armored
cruisers it is much different. The
: height Of the big ships out of water
makes good deal of difference when W.
are out for speed, whereas the torpedo
boats are SO low in the water that Il
does not make very much difference
! However, the results on Tuesday ani
t Wednesday will be watched with {
1 great deal of interest by all the navie
I of the world"

INHERITANCE TAX
CASE FINALLY PAU

The Mary Dame Hall inheritance tax
has been paid a check for $5Sl5, the
full amount of the tax assessed against
the estate, being turned over to Treas
urer Conlling yesterday by the attor-
neys for the estate. This settles def
initely the case which has been thresh-
ed through all the courts and upon the
final decision in which rested the con-
stitutionality of the inheritance tax
law.
The fact that the defendants in the
case gave up and decided not to carry
it to the Supreme Court of the United
States on constitutional grounds rem
ders it extremely unlikely that any
further opposition to the tax will be
made. There are sew al large estates
which have not YET paid the inheri-
lance tax, and it is ~ up to the Ter
ritory to collect these. The total due
the Territory from these sources runs
far into the thousands Of dollars.

demolished, and he was glad of it, for
it was an eyesore that ought long ago
to have been removed. Moreover, he
had not acted on his own Judgment
alone, but had consulted Mr.. Young,
the landscape gardener of Kapiolani
park, who had advised the telling of
the tree as 4 means of identifying
Thomas Square. Mr.. Young, he said,
had some time before indicated serv-
eral trees that ought to come down. All
the rest had been removed and only
the banyan remained yesterday morn
ing. Now it was gone and the park
undoubtedly presented a handsomer ap.
pearance than it ever did before, es.
pecially during the time the Superin.
tendent of Public Works was in charge
of the maintenance and care of the
parks.
"When we took over the parks, u
said Quinn, "Thomas Square was moth
ing but a garbage heap, and now look
at it. We have done all we could t.
bring it into shape, and / think we
have succeeded. We have cut down
trees gradually so they would not be
missed. In week nobody will know
there ever was banyan tree in that
corner. It's great note, turning over
the parks to the city to maintain and
then not letting us cut the trees 'wher
we find it necessary.
"It all comes down to the same ole
question of who owns the parks ant
the streets-the Territory or the City
and County. But we have an ordinanc,
now in process of passage that will
bring the matter to a head. 1t is tn
street ordinance. We will make tn
Mutual Telephone company settle tn
matter for good and all, for the frs
time after the ordinance is passed tina
Superintendent Marston Campbell
gives any man permission to dig hol
in the street, we will have the maj
arrested
So that is the way the matter stand
now. Campbell says Quinn is var
dial, and Quinn says Campbell talks to
much.
