MATTERS BEFORE
THE PROMOTERS

At the meeting of the Hawaii Pro
motion Committee held yesterday af-
ternoon, B. Won Damn, of Hackfeld
& Company, Ltd, was elected
member and treasurer of the body to
succeed w. A. Bowen, who has found
it necessary to resign.
The matter 81 the prospective rush
of tourists during the winter came
up, the special phase considered be-
ing that of hotel accommodations. II
numerous letters in the hands of the
committee prove accurate, the city
will be overrun with visitors this
winter, and hotel room may become
a problem. It was decided to secure
and keep on file at the Promotion
Rooms list, not only of hotel rooms,
but of accommodations to be had at
rooming buses and even in private
residences, if any. This arrangement
will enable the committee to meet
any demand or call that may be made
upon 1t.
A number Of people filed applica-
tions for slides or other assistance to
be used in lectures on Hawaii abroad.
While disposed to encourage all such
plans of a promising character, the
Committee did not feel able to grant
requests of this sort.
Secretary Woods report, publish
ed yesterday, was read and discussed
at length.

WALDRON BACK
FROM NEW ORIENT

There was a large crowd on the
wharf to welcome the Chiyo Maru,
from the Orient today, but they were
prevented from encroaching too close
ly to the gangway, which enabled
passengers to disembark comfortab.
ly and have their luggage examined
without the inconvenience which u.s.
ually has attended landing here. o
On board the Chiyo Maru were ma
ny members of the commercial par
ty which visited China, Japan and the
Philippines, among those returning
being: Mr.. and Mrs. Fred L. VALID
ron, Mr. and Mrs. E. P. BosbysheT,
Mr. and Mrs. w. H. Booth, G. Burn
ham, Mr. and Mrs. o. NJ. Clark, c. X.

Mr. and Mrs. VIM. Piggott, ]. f.
Shaw and L. v. WEIGH.
Mr.. and Mrs. Waldron were hear
lilly welcomed by their many friends
who had gathered on the wharf, and
they were surrounded as they step
ped off the ship. Mr.. Waldron ex-
pressed himself as immensely plea
sed with the trip, but declared that
it was impossible for him to give
review of his trip in a few words, re-
marking that it woud take columns.
He had glorious time, he said, and
the Chinese gave them a welcome
which surpassed anything ever at
tempted by the Ceiestials before.
Business in China was fair on the
whole, though it was very promising

| hal still suffered from the overs spec
ulation in rubber, which caused such
an upheaval IT the city last June, bur
Hankow. Canton and other towns
were prosperous. HongKong, said Mr..
Waldron, was just the same as the
Hongkong we read about; it was q
different place entirely rom the otn-
er towns along the coast. Mr.. Wal
dron is optimistic regarding the flu
ture of Manila. Business was boom
ing there, and there were enormous
possibilities ahead for further eXpan-
sion. Mr.. Waldron will submit his
report to the Chamber of Commerce
as soon as he is able to prepare It,
which will probably be within ten or
fourteen days.

"See?" said the petty officer. "Now
wait till n of them lights his pipe"
In a little while a sailor filled his
pipe, got out his match and faced the
open door Of the barroom. There was
not a breath Of breeze coming through
the door, but the sailor covered the

boiler half full of water and put in
two cupfuls of the soap mixture, turn
your clothes out of soak and put in

in two waters. You will find the
clothes a snowy white without any

GIFT THAT PLEASES)
CRYSTALIZED FRUIT PEEL AL
WAYS WELCOME.
Simple Method of Preparation That Is
in Every Way Satisfactory-FuIi
Directions for Its Manufac.
ture Given Below.

An attractive gift that may easily be
made at home and that gives an
mount of pleasure quite d%ispropor.
tionate to the labor involved is a box
of crystalized fruit peel. The charm
of the gift lies partly in the delicious
flavor of the candy and partly in the
attractiveness OF the packing. One es-
pecially effective box was packed with
crystalized pineapple and candied or
ange, grape fruit and lemon peel. with
a decoration of candied mint leaves,
cherries and angelica on the top. AZ
ter packing carefully, before putting
on the box cover, the candy may be
covered with a paper lace dolly.
There is a simple method of prepar.
ing the crystalized peel that is in every
way satisfactory. Take the rind of two
grape fruits or four oranges, removing
any portion of the tough fiber sepa-
but leaving the white lining of the yell
low rind. With scissors cut the peel in
strips one-quarter or three-eighths of
an inch wide, cover with plenty of wa
ter and boil slowly for half an hour.
Drain, cover with fresh cold water and
boil again for another half hour. Then
pour off all the water, add q large cup
of graduated sugar and half a cupful
of cold water and boil until all the
strip has been absorbed. Scatter on
pieces Of brown paper to cool and dry
a little, then roll in fine granulated
sugar. The peel of lemons, mandarins
and lines may be prepared in the same
way and a few strips of each mixed in
a box OF candied orange and grape
fruit afford a pleasant variety.
Candied pineapple strips are deli,
cious and are easily prepared. The
fruit is first peeled, then cut in strips
W inches long, half an inch wide and
about a quarter of an inch thick.
Measure the fruit and add half the
quantity of granulated sugar, and let
1t stand until the sugar is dissolved,
which may be nearly twenty-four
hours. Drain off the juice and boil it
five minutes, then add the fruit and
cook for three or our minutes; drain
the pineapple and spread on a platter
to dry. h process may be fastened
by putting the platter in the sun, the
warming closet, or even on the top of
a radiator. The fruit should be turned
once and then rolled in fine granulated
sugar. The process is a much more
lengthy me than that required for tho
fruit peel, but a few pieces put in each
box make a delicious addition.
The cherries and mint leaves may be
prepared in similar fashion, but as they
are easily secured at large groceries
or confectionery shops, together with
angelica, which has such an exquisite
flavor, and as only a small quantity is
required for a dozen or more boxes, it
seems hardly worth while to make
them at home. A single cherry in the
middle of a box with a circle of mint
leaves and narrow strips of angelica
about it gives to the sweets an artistic
touch.-Los Angeles Herald.

Care of HORSES Feet.

II the horse already has defective
feet keep them carefully trimmed and
shod if necessary. The soft hoof
should be shod and reshod every six
or eight weeks in winter where the
ground Is frozen and at all times of
the year where the roads are rocked
or graveled. BY keeping the horse
with poor feet properly shod it will
do good service without loss of time.
But it is best to breed for good feet.
