BOTTLE CONTAINING MESSAGE
FOUND ON SHORE OF OAHU

According to the Maritime Register
the bark Haddon Hall, 1882 tons, com
manded by Captain Fookes, sailed from
Liverpool on April of last year and
left Montevideo on August 8, arriving
at Vancouver on December IA, 1908,
or just month after the bottle was
cast overheard.
1t is the custom of masters of ships
to throw bottles containing messages
overheard, and requests are made that
when such bottles are found that proper
authorities be communicated with so
that the information may reach not
only those personally interested in the
vessels, but the United States Hydro.
graphic Bureau and it's branches, and
the weather bureaus, so that data may
be compiled as to the drift of ocean
currents. In this case from the time
the bottle was put into the sea until
found nearly eight months elapsed, al.

the shore for some time before its dis.

POSTER IS ORDERED
FOR PINEAPPLE DAY

Secretary II. P. Wood, of the Pro-
motion Committee, is working out the
particulars for his proposed "Pineap-
pie Day" fete. He has requested II.
NJ. Mist, the designer of the Floral
Parade poster, to prepare tentative
design for poster to advertise the oc-
casion.
Should the plan go through, Wood
hopes to have the feast set for the
middle of August. At that time of
the year he believes that it would be
possible to secure large attendance
from the mainland, particularly Of
school teachers.
The suggestion is made that mill
tary tournament might be held at Wa

racks being asked to participate. Field
sports, swimming races, and the like,
would also be included in the program.
But the great feature of the occa-
sion would be the pineapples. The
luscious fruit would be in evidence on
every hand and the fortunate visitors
from the mainland would have an OPP
portunity to enjoy themselves to their
fill on the juicy product of Wahiawa q
plantations.

this tomb the remains of the great
Kamehameha were laid away. The
secret of the tomb has been handed
down from one generation to the next,
and it is said that, at the present day,
but one person living knows the burial
place and he is member of the Beck
ley family. The remains of Edward,
a younger brother of Mrs. Kahea, are
said to have been buried in an opposite
entrance to the same cave.
Kameeiamoku and Kamanawa were
supposed to be uncles of Kamehameha.
When a small boy they took him in
charge and taught him the art Of war.
Both were powerful men, even in those
days of powerful men. Kamehameha
grew to be giant in stature and
strength, and the prophecy of the two
princes, that Kamehameha would be
the highest of all in Hawaii, was borne
out.
The deceased was a sister Of Hon.
Fred X. Beckley, who was the monar-
chical governor of the island of Kauai
under King Kalakaua at the time of
his death. His son is Fred W. Beckley,
one time Speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives and at present Hawaiian
III tOuIt.
, err brother is George c. Beckley, capi-
talist and for years the purser of the
Inter Island steamer Kinau. Mrs. Ka-
hea has for several years been the
keeper of the Royal, Mausoleum and
grounds in Nuuanu valley. The remains
of many of the Kamehameha dynasty
repose there in a tomb, and those OF
the Kalakaua dynasty in the imposing
mausoleum structure. Her name Ka-
haawelani signifies carrying the heav.
emily one,' because of the fact that
her grandfather carried Kamehameha IS
bones to their secret resting place. She
was one of the ladies of Queen Kapio-
| lani g court.
Surviving Mrs. Kahea, who was about
sixty years of age, are her husband
and five living children, who include
Mrs. Carl Maertens and Leonidas Beck
ley, and her brother, George @. Beckley.
The funeral will take place at 4
o clock this afternoon from the Roman
Catholic cathedral, the interment to be
] in the Nuuanu cemetery.

ACT
OF WAIPAHU
STRIKERS
CFrom Sundays Advertiser.)

(From Sundays Advertiser.)
That the lawless element among the
strikers do not intend to obev the order
of the court in regard to intimidation
unless absolutely forced to, was de-
monstrated late yesterday afternoon at
waipahu when two Japanese. anxious
to return to work, were waylaid by
pickets and threatened. Officers of the
law had been advised Of the intention
of the two men to return to work, and
were on hand to afford the protection.
Nevertheless one was held prisoner for
a short time.
The imprisoned laborer was soon re-
leased and was escorted to place of
safety, while six of his jailers were
placed under arrest and brought into
Honolulu, reaching here about 2 o'clock
this morning.
The Higher Wage Association has es-
tablished picket system at Waipahu,
and all strikers desiring to visit tho
plantation have been required to secure
a pass from the Higher Wage Associa-
ton in this city. One Of the men in
volved in yesterdays trouble procured
such a pass, explaining that he thought
that it would help him get by the
PICKET. He was lost somewhere in the
shuttle.
The other Japanese was taken in tow
and escorted to the Office of the Higher
Wage Association, where endeavors
were made to dissuade him from going
back to work. He was rescued by Man
ager Bull and Officer Scoville.

Mr.. Kluegel was in charge of the
Department of Public Works during
the absence OF Superintendent Marston
Campbell on the mainland, and during
his tenure in Office as assistant to Mr..
Campbell has earned an enviable repu-

necessary through the consolidation
with the departments of land and sur

forced his way into the postofiiee at
Wahiawa, helped himself to the con-

The robbery was discovered yester-
day morning by Karsten Chott, the
clerk, when he opened the office. Though
large amount in stamps was at hand,
the midnight marauder had not touch

might prove discriminating evidence,

Mrs. Maria Beckley Kahea, high
chiefess under the old Hawaiian sys.
tenn of nobility, died last evening at
the Sanatorium, following an operation
for cancer of the stomach which was
more serious than anticipated. Mrs.
Kahea was descended from line of
illustrious ancestors whose influence in
the beginning of the Kamehameha dy-
nasty brought them close to the throne
of the Napoleon of the Pacific.
Mrs, Kahea was the daughter of the
High Chiefess Kahinu and of William
Beckley, the latter being the son of
Capt. George Beckley, foreigner who
not only was the first military COM
mander of the old Honolulu fort at the
foot of what is now Fort street, but
was one of Kamehameha Is advisers.
The Chiefess Kahinu was the daughter
of Prince Hoolulu, brother of Prince
Hoopili and son OF Kameeiamoku, twin
brother of Kamanawa, whose effigies
are to be seen upon the Hawaiian coat
of-arms.
Hoopili and Hoolulu, around whom
much Hawaiian history centers are the
two princes who watched at Kailua,
Hawaii, near where the remains of Ka.
mehameha the Great was buried, until
the guards and mourners became negli-
gent of their duty, when they surrep-
titiously possessed themselves of the
bones and carried them away in the
night. Hoopili left in canoe and
'skirted the shore, landing near the
present boundary line of North and
South Kohala, where he was joined by
Hoolulu, who made the journey along
| the shore, and tradition says that en-
route he met Hawaiian whom he slew
in order that no knowledge be given
that either of the princes had been seen
| going anywhere that night. According
to the stories handed down from gener
alton to generation in the Beckley fam
lily, Hoolulu bound the bundle of Ka
mehameha s bones to himself, dived
into the water beneath cliff, and
swan through submarine opening
which opened into a chamber, and in

(FrOm Mondays Advertiser.)

Legitimate dispensers of liquor have
quietly closed up their sale emporiums
on Sunday in Difference to the mandate
of the License Commission, made Sun
day real dry Sabbath, and, as far as
known, have made no effort to evade
the rule of the commission. But In
spector Fennell ascertained that AT
least one man, who pays neither Ii
cense nor respect to the law, was en-
deayoring to make real wet Sunday
for residents of the Asylum district.
He descended upon the joint yesterday
afternoon and landed the booze and
proprietor.
The blind pig was located on Wal
pilopilo lane and was conducted by a
Hawaiian named Sam HOmano. 1t was
located in an out.ofthe.way place near
the Asylum. With the assistance of an
informer, Fennel located the joint and
sent the infOrmer In. He had no diff.
ficulty in getting a couple OF bottles
Of wine and ON an agreed signal, Fen.
nell entered the room, where he found
the informer slipping the contents of
one bottle. with the other untouched
tucked under his arm.
The proprietor admitted that he had
been selling illicitly for some time.

/, Finally, in the angry uproar, the cap
tain was forced gradually back along
the deck, and was compelled TO mount
the steps leading to the chart-room
deck The men swarmed up the ladder
after him and although two or three
of the ships officers joined the cap
tain, all the officers were forced into
a cabin. The captain closed the door
and pondered whether he should resort
+, to the usual recourse under mutinous
circumstances of using his revolver
should they attempt to force their way
into his presence.
Meanwhile, Fred Weed had taken in
the situation and sent call to the
police station for posse. The patrol
wagon responded on the jump and four
officers rushed down the wharf and
mounted to the steamers decks. Big
Peter Hose, one of the most muscular
giants who ever wore Hawaiian police
man s uniform, was in the van. Some
of the mutinous gang attempted to
bar his way. With two sweeps of his
long arms Hose thrust these aside and
on the advice of the captain seized
the leaders of the mutineers. The other
offices corralled two others. Even then
an effort was made to surround the of
fcers.
The boatswain was not arrested. at

this time, for after he saw the way
things had gone, he attempted to force
the crowd back from the upper deck
and was walloped for his pains.
Captain Suhr stated last evening that
he had been insulted by the men, and
called every vile name that they could
think of. Some of the men insisted
on taking him bodily and throwing him
into the water.
The cause of the trouble was booze,
and the fact that the crew had invited
strangers into the forecastle, visitors
who demoralized the discipline of the
sailors, who, as general rule, are well
behaved men and obey commands with
out question. The captain states that
the men had no liquor aboard of their
own, and that what was drunk was
brought on board by the strangers.
Several of the strange sailors who
collected outside the wharf gate, after
the trouble and almost had a fight
among themselves while discussing the
arrests, were heard to state that they
had gone aboard to buy booze. 1t is
said that one of the ships petty of.
ficers, who had access to the lockers
opened them and that the crew had
sold beer to the strangers. Being a
dry Sunday in town, the news had gone
out along the waterfront that beer could
be obtained on the Flensburg, and they
went on board to get it. Captain Suhr
however. denies this in toto.
The three sailors under arrest are
William Ebert, Frank Yervien and
Schurz.
