FISHMARKET
FOR CITY PARK
Supervisor Quinn Wants Govern
ment to Turn 1t Over to
the Supervisors.

eff the Territory viii turn over the
old fshmarket at the foot Of Alakea
street to the county, / will assure the
public that within a very short time
they will have one of the prettiest
parks there to be found in the city, -
said Supervisor Jim Quinn yesterday
as he slowed his big auto up before
the big iron shed to allow a couple
of reporters TO take look.
Quinn points to the old fishmarket
as an eyesore at present, first because
the big shed lacks paint, secondly be
cause the interior is almost in need of
a visit from the board of health and
third because the grass and trees have
become unkempt, the grass being almost
dead
He states that if the county had the
square that prisoners would be put to
work to dig up the soil and plant new
grass. trim the trees. clean them. plant
more trees and paint and clean mp the
big iron structure. Quinn believes the
fshmarket will be needed when the big
Pacific liners dock at the Alakea wharf
and most Of the tourist business cen
ters in that section. The shed affords
fine shelter for soldiers and sailors and
provides an airing place for large
number Of people.
That the county il doing fine work
in the parks needs only visit to the
various breathing spots about town.
Makiki field IS now a beautiful place
and in time will he surrounded by
poinciana trees. The entire field has
been regrassed and looks fine. The
cricket club s store shed Is now lat
ticed in and vines are growing over IT,.

Mail Special to the Advertiser.)
WASHINGTON, November 1.-THE
Territory of Hawaii has not the right
to lease any part of a federal bird
reservation.
Secretary Ballinger's letter, deciding
that the lease by the territorial au-
thorities to Max Schlemmer of guano
rights on the Laysan and Lysianski is
lands is illegal, probably goes forward
in the same mail as this letter. The
amount involved is not large. Mr..
Schlemmer was to pay the Territory
but $25 for this privilege and was to
plant trees upon the islands, but the
federal government S superior claim to
authority over the islands is note
worthy. Secretary Ballinger is writ
ing to Governor Frear that the lease
is. without the slightest efficacy" as
territorial authority has been terminal
ed over the land where there was es-
tabished bird reserve.

WASHINGTON. November 24.-The

awaiting definite word from Nicaragua
in order TO determine what steps may
properly be taken to bring that turbu'
lent country and its dictator to sense
of the responsibility that rests upon
anyone who misuses or takes the life
Of an American citizen unjustly. Until
there is some definite information re-

executed by order of Zelaya were ac-

or were acting independently in their
opposition to the Zelaya government,
the United States can not proceed.
Yesterday the cabinet members dis
cussed the Nicaraguan question, but the
result of their deliberations has not
been given out, the only word being
that the government was still marking
time, ready to proceed at once as soon
as there was definite ground for action.

TAFT EXPRESSES HIS
SYMPATHY FOR WIDOW
(By Associated Press.)

BUTLER, Missouri, November ga
Congressman De Almond, with his six
year-old grandson, was burned to death
in his home here yesterday. The bodies
of the two victims have been found in
the ruins of the house. The entire
building was totally destroyed by the
flames. Yesterday President Taft sent
message of sympathy to the bereayed
wife and mother.
David Algernon De Almond, congress
man and lawyer; was born in Blair
county, Pennsylvania, on March IS,
1874. He was reared on a farm and
was educated in the public schools. Fin
ally he saved enough money to go to
the Dickinson seminary at Williams
port. Here he studied law and finally
went back to his home town to prac-
tise He was elected a presidential
elector in 1884 Afterwards he became
a State senator and then was appoint.
ed circuit judge. After that he was
a supreme court commissioner and then
entered congress from the sixth dis
triet of Missouri and was there from
1891 till the date of his death.
In politics he was a Democrat and
was one of the most highly respected
of the middle West congressman. His
constituents regret his sudden death,
las much for the loss of a good man
as for that of one who consistently
boosted the farmer s cause in congress.

The little fellow got down to business
today, and his gymnasium in Market

in the gym takes a rundown and a

anyone who ventures to sacrifice the

THE NEXT DERBY

The $4,000 grand international Mara
thon race, which will be run at the
Polo grounds or Saturday afternoon,
May 8, for the purpose of deciding once
and for all the championship of the
world. is already the main topic of con-
versation in athletic circles. Entries
for the event are pouring in from all
parts of thes globe, and were all the
runners who want to start allowed to
toe the mark they would just about fill
the Brush stadium. which, by the way,
is the new name for the Polo grounds.
1t is the intention of h promoters to
allow any runner who has shown that
he is possessed OF class enough to be
entitled to start in the company of the
topnotchers, to go to the post.
The entries of six runners have been
accepted up to date. These are: st,
Yves. the Frenchman, who won the
derby at the Polo grounds; simpson,
the Indian; Dorando, the Italian; Ma
loney, the h-American. and Orphee
and Cibot, the winners of the recent
Isix-day so-as-you-please race In Madi-
son Square Garden. In addition to these
men invitations have been sent to Pat
White, of Ireland; Carvajal. the
Cuban; Fred Appleby, who twice de-
feated Shrubb in England; Svanberg,
the Swede; Alfred Shrubb, johnny
Hayes, Tom Longhoat and the winner
of the all-Canada professional Mara
thon, which takes place in Toronto
next Saturday.
AT the time OF the derby several of
the runners mentioned abov raised a
fearful howl about being barred from
competing. In the coming race there
will be a S1o.0 900 purse, divided as fol-
lows: $1,000, $1,000. $1,000, $500, $500,
$500, $500.
