kauai OFFICIALS
FOR PROHIBITION

When Senator Fairchild reported the
Island of Kauai unanimously opposed
to prohibition and quite satisfied with
what it had in the way of liquor traffic
regulation, he overlooked a great deal,
according to other reports received
from the Garden Island. The fact that
the Kauai grand jury drew attention re-
Gently to the fact that all the cases it
had been called upon TO investigate hal
their relation to liquor and the use of
it, has been noted by Kauaians as well
as others and. there are plenty of the
former to assist in b -'nging about a
better state of affairs.
As matter of fact, the majority on
Kauai for prohibition will be substan-
tial in any event ana will be large if
w. H. Rice and Francis Gay announce
themselves in favor of the noIbooze
side. Some are reported to be waiting
to see how these two align themselves,
but others are already actively working
for the prohibition majority. E
A number of prohibition clubs have
been formed. In almost every one, the
officers are either county or territorial
officials. The Lihue club has A. Kaulu-
kou, deputy assessor, for president and
j. H. X. Kaiwi for secretary. The Ka-
paa club is presided over by John M.
Kaneakua, county clerk of Kauai, while
John Opio, supervisor, is treasurer. The
secretary for the Kapaa club is s. w.
Meheula, deputy sheriff.
William Warner, Judge at Ianalei, is
the president of the club in his dis.
trict with j. X. Lota, the deputy sher.
iff, the secretary.
Rev. ]. K. Akina, pastor of the
Waimea church, is the president of the
Waimea club, with j. K. Kapuniai
deputy assessor, the secretary.

Emeryville Probably Won't Allow
1t and the Plans
Change.
TURN TO SAN FRANCISCO
But Citizens of the Wide-open
Paris of America Also
Protest.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1s.-It is
planned now to hold the Johnsou-Jeff-
ries fight in this city, owing to the
prospect that the local authorities in
Emeryville appear likely to refuse per
mission to hold it there. The promoters
think that Mayor McCarthy's q admins
tration will approve having the con.
test in San Francisco and are planning
accordingly. There will, however, be
vigorous protests if such an arrange
ment is attempted, and there is no GER
tainty yet as to where the fight can be
pulled off.
Though both the fighters are eontinu.
ing to train and promoter Tex Richard
declares that he win certainly pull the
fight of, it is beginning to appear like
ly that there will be trouble over get
ting place. Rickard is insured against
such contingencies as prevention of the
fight.
Some of the leading ministers of San
Francisco have been pointing ont that
practically every State in the Union
has passed laws prohibiting prize fights.
and they denounced the authorities of
Emeryville for bringing California into
the limelight as the only State allow
ing such exhibitions. AS result of
this agitation, it developed today that
there was much opposition among the
officials of Alameda county, in which
Emeryville is, to allowing the fight.
Rickard has appealed to the Nc
Carthy administration for a license to
allow the white and negro champions
to pummel one another in this city.
Mccarthy has declared for a "wide
open" city, and has made San Fran
cisco more "wide open" than she ever
was. 1t is stated, however, that if he
attempts to bring upon San Francisco
the notoriety of being the scene of this
light, there will lbe legal proceedings to
prevent it.

BODY OF KING
LIES IN State
First Stage of Edwards Funeral
Is Completed-Imposing
Ceremonies.

LONDON, May 1.-THE remains of
the late King Edward were today con-
veyed in solemn state through the
streets of London from Buckingham
Palace to Westminster Hall, where they
now lie in state.
lhe original intention had been to
have the removal of the body from the
throne room of Buckingham Palace to
Westminster done privately, but this
pldl was abandoned and the procession
yesterday was one of considerable cere-
mony, the cortege being an imposing
military spectacle, twelve thousand
troops lining the streets through which
the procession passed.
The members of the house of COM
mons assembled in the morning and re-
paired in body to Westminster Hall
to receive the body. After the oaken
casket had been placed in position on
the catafalque covered with the same
purple pail that enshrouded the coffin
of Queen Victoria, the line around the
bier was formed, the first 10 pass being
the assembled members of royalty, in
their official regalia. These were fol
lowed by the peers of the kingdom and
members of the commons. Brief ser
vices were held.
The body win lie in state for three
days, after which the casket win be
taken to Westminster Abbey, for the
reading there Of the 1rst part OF the
burial service. The service viii be con
cluded at Windsor Castle.

Quinn rose in defense of the measure
saying that the city had no money, an
argument which nobody tried to refute
but which made no dent in the firmness
of the opposition. Cox also spoke in
defense of it, pleading for better
streets as soon as possible.

have failed, AHA rose primed with an
other line of talk. He called attention
to the thirty petitions received by the

Awaiting THE
TRANSIT OF
COMET
Scientists the World Over on the
Lookout for Today's
Event.
SOME HINTS OF DANGER
Professor Ellerman Gets Cable
Giving Hour of
Transit.
SOME HINTS OF DANGER
LFrgm wednesday ANvernser.l


Some time today or tonight, the
earth is to pass through the tail of Hal
ley S comet and late this afternoon the
comet IS nucleus or head, will pass be
tween the earth and the sun. A cable
received yesterday by Professor Eller-
man, Of the Mount Wilson Solar OBJ
servatory, who is here as representing
the Astronomical and Astrophysical So
ciety of America, stated that final OBJ
servations and calculations showed that
the comet would be at the middle of its
passage across the sun at 5:l5:1S this
afternoon. As it Will take about half
an hour to cross the sun, this means
that the transit will begin at about a
quarter to five, The exact time of the
earth entering the comet Is tail can not
be stated.
All over the world scientists are
waiting to see what the day will re-
veal. Some voices of alarm are heard,
but an overwhelming majority of the
authorities express the opinion that
the passage of the earth through the
tail of the comet will not have any
effect at ALL except upon scientific in
struments used for purposes of investi-
cation. The present headquarters of
the Astronomical and Astrophysical So
ciety are in Madison, Wisconsin, to
which place the scientists here and in
scores of other places will send their
reports. The result of Professor Ell
lerman' Is observations here will be
known at once, while those of Pro-
fessors Lord and Coddington, at Hale
iva, unless very decisive, may not be
fully detected or appreciated at first
sight.
The hour of transit is what Professor
Ellerman and the other observers came
here for, and it viii afford them and
Professor Donaghho of the College of
Hawaii an opportunity never had be-
fore in the history of astronomy. From
Diamond Head, Professor Ellerman will
watch the transit, while Professors
Lord and Coddington, who also repre-.
sent the Astronomical and Astrophysi.
cal Society, will make observations OF
spectroscopic nature.
The great question which the scien.
lists hope to solve is as to the compost.
tion of the comet. 1t is a question
whether the nucleus is of sufficient
solidity to be visible as it crosses the
sun. "The only other transit of q
comet across the sun that has been OBJ
served was that of the great comet OF
1882" said Professor Ellerman yester,
day. "That comet was so near the
sun,-only about 100000 miles away
that l think it's head was vaporized
and became too thin to absorb light
