"CHERILLA L. LOWREY,
ANOTHER SAD BLOW
TO THE DOVER FAMILY

Eddie Dover, the twelve year son
of the late Capt. u. =. and Mrs. Eunice
Dover, passed away shortly before five
0 clock Yesterday afternoon at the Chill
dren s Hospital. The little boy had been
suffering with organic heart trouble for
some time, and had only recently been
placed in the hospital.
The particularly sad feature of the
death of this little fellow is that his
mother was buried just a week ago to-
day, leaving the invalid child and four
other little orphans dependent upon
charity, the father having died some
three years ago.
Honolulu Harbor No. 81 the local
branch of the American Association of
Masters, Mates and Pilots, of which the
late Captain Dover was a member, will
probably assume charge of the funeral.
\ meeting of the harbor will be held at
nine o'clock this morning, at the Inter
Island wharf, as announced elsewhere
in this paper.
The funeral will take place from

California Man Writes Asking
Terms for Local Aviation
Meet.

Following closely upon the predic-
ton Of DR.. Alexander Graham Bell
that some day aerodromes may tiv
from the Coast to Hawaii. comes the
proposal of G. G. Jameson of Alameda
California, for an aviation meet in
this city. The promotion committee
yesterday received letter from Mr..
Jameson. dated May II, asking if the
committee would support the bringing
Of an aviation meet being one of the
greatest things to boost a town. -
Mr.. Jameson states that he is a direc-
tor of the Alameda Chamber of Com
merce. An aviation meet was held
there recently to which thirty thou
sand people came. The proposition
looked so good to Mr.. Jameson that
he has now gone INTO the business
He proposes three sets Of terms:
First a fiat guarantee of $4,000; second
a guarantee of $4,000 and twenty FIVE
per cent. of the gate, or. third, the
advance sale of tickets before the
meet, in which case the local organ
izarion would take hold of the meet
and sell the tickets. He believes that
every merchant would take several
tickets. These are the same terms ap-
PLYING in the mainland cities
The writer states that their aviator
is Capt. Ivy Baldwin. one of the great
est baIoonists and aviators in America,
and Jameson guarantees flights.

powered to appoint subcommittee, the
chaIrmen OF which should keep in con-
slant touch with the central committee
Sueh subcommittee should be one on
finance, one on publicity-to keep the
subject before the people through the
newspapers and otherwise, that there
may be intelligence and enthusiasm on
the part of women regarding register
ing and voting. This committee should
be very large, and their work would
be very heavy, requiring house to house
visitation, urging qualified women to
register and to vote, whatever their
views on prohibition, the object of the
whole meeting being to secure an honest
opinion of the wOmanhoOd of Hawaii;
one on the printing of posters for regis
tration and election, etc. and one of
three persons in each precinct division
to act as registrars and later as inspect
Ors Of ballots The large part of the
work of the central committee would
he the preparation of detailed instruc-
lions throughout the precincts.'
After outlining in detail the prelimi-
narics of the election and the election
itself, the report continues:
1.-The foregoing seems to be the sim
plest and the necessary form of pro-
cedure for such an election as is pro-
posed. There are, however, certain diff
ficultes to be enumerated:
81 Expense not heretofore consid-
cred of an Office and clerical force.
90. The absolute inexperience both
of those who would conduct the election
and of those who would vote.
%. The marked shortness of time.
81 Because of the shoFtnesS of time,
the necessary looseness of registering
and Of balloting.
" Before taking a vote on this plan
the committee ask that there be a show
ing of volunteers who will pledge them
selves to organized work if this plan is
; adopted. Respectfully submitted.

KANSAS CITY, Jan. 18.-Physi-
clans who examined the stomach Of
Colonel Thomas II. Swope, Kansas
City millionaire who died October
3 under mysterious circumstances,
declared today they found evidence
of strychnine.
MIR. Swope's nephew, Christian
Swope, died December 2. and it
was established beyond all doubt
that there was poison in his stom-
ach. 1t was suspected both men
were poisoned by some one who
hoped to receive a portion of the
Swope fortune after their removal.
Examination of Colonel Swope's
stomach was ordered by relatives.
1t was made under direction of DR..

At the city engineers office it
is learned that nearly everyone
that applies for work on the Mon
roe street bridge wants to be either
a foreman, timekeeper or book
keeper.
1t is said that men have gone to
the engineers office recently with
the hardest kind of hard luck tales
wife sick, children hungry, no
fuel in the house-yet after days
trial with the pick and shovel have
thrown up their jobs with the state
ment that they guessed they would
have to do something else to sup
port the wife and kids.
A large per cent of those who
go to the engineers office with a
recommendation from some city
official or politician are after
soft jobs and not hard labor. The
soft jobs have all been passed out,
and the men who actually want to
do the manual labor on the bridge
go to the job and make application
to the foremen.
The charge that there has been
any favoritism by the foremen in
passing out the laboring jobs is not

operators, as the title. "girlless,"
would suggest. A large number Of
girls will be required for long dis

that the automatic phone was in

For seven hours Johnson had

was the man who. Johnson said.

threw him into the alley where ne

ally several times while at the hos

story, which the police believed un-
til the youth asserted that he ha0
knocked down the 200-pound ban

finally Johnson confessed his play
to get wages without working.
