PRINCESSES TO

IN COLOR
Picturesque Section of Parade
Will BE Brilliant

The Island Princess section of the
parade this year gives promise of be-
ing far ahead of anything of the kind
that has ever been seen in Honolulu.
Miss Rose Dawson, who has charge Of
this section. has her plans practically
completed Five islands will this year
be rcprcsented-kaua Oahu, Maui,
Mookai and Hawaii. The princess of
each island has been chosen with the
exception of Kauai which will PROB
ably be known in a day or two.
The royal procession will no doubt
be an imposing one. At its head will
ride Prince David Kalakaua, the young
son of Princess Kawananakoa, with an
escort of five boys and girls who have
not yet been named. These will all
he attred in proper regalia for the oc-
casiOn.
Following IL prince will ride the
princesses, each with IA retinue con-
sisting of a page and six lady attend
ants. Each island will be represented
by it's special color as eXemplifed in
the costume of the princess of that
island.
CoIors Are Chosen.
As stated kauais princess is not
yet known. She will wear, however, a
purple plush cape and purple silk
pau of lighter shade, Her attendants
will wear black capes and purple
pa-us
Oahu's princes, Miss Libby Peck,
low satin pa-u, and her attendants will
be costumed in similar though less rich
manner.
Miss Becky Copp, Maui's princess,
will wear black velvet cape and
cerese satin pau.
Molokai's coIors, two shades Of
green, will be worn by her princess,
Miss Kalama Meyers, whose cape will
be of dark green plush with pau Of
light green silk. Her attendants will
wear black capcs and green pa-us.
MISS AIlCt ildlllt, lllc -dp-
pointed princess to represent Hawaii,
will wear yellow plush cape and rcd
satin pau
Miss Dawson has not fully deter
mined upon the order in which these
princesses shall ride, and this will
probably be determined with reference
to the best combination of colors, and
not by size Of islands or other plan
The representation for each of the
islands is as follows:

Board of Supervisors.

troduced by Chairman Dwight of the
road committee and adopted by a Re

preliminary towards the institution OF
impeachment proceedings through the

The supervisors with one exception
demand the removal of Road Super

taken steps to abolish a portion of the
duties that official has been perform

A resolution was passed last night
demanding that Fern submit the name

MAN SLATED FOR JOURNAL ~
CLERK OF HOUSE REFUSED /
Leave FROM PRESENT JOB.

Political circles are considerably
stirred up today over the proposed APP
pontmcnt of Nagaran Fernandez as
journal clerk of the House, an ap-
pontment that II. l.. Holstein, bcliev-
ing that he is sure of the speakership
had practically settled upon. Now it
appears that Fernandez may not be
able to take the job, and the news and
the story with it were "a favorite topic
among the politicians this morning
Holstein, it seems, wrote down from
Hawaii some time ago asking Judge
Lymer of the District Court for q
sixty day leave of absence for Fer
nandez who is now clerk of the court
Fernandez was journal clerk of the

Il sent a cable to President Tart
this morning recommending Judge
Robertson for chief justice of the Su-
preme Court" was the statement OF
Governors Erear this morning in reply
to a question as to what he thought OF
the action of the bar association yes
terday in endorsing Robertson.
''Then the action of the bar associ-
alton was in accordance with your
vieWs?" the Governor was asked. D
Yes" responded the chief executive,
but that does not mean that there
were not other good man, but simply
that Robertson appeared to be the one
to receive the most general endorse
ment"
Governor Frear stated that he did not
believe that the fact of Judge Robert
son being on the United States District
Court bench would initiate against his
appointment as Territorial chief justice
by President Taft stating that there
is no analogy between the situation
now presented and that .at the time of
Woodrum's retirement, which is known
to have caused adverse comment by
the President.
Judge Robertson stated this morn
ing that he would be glad to accept
the place of Chief Justice Of the Su-

Chairman Murray stated that he is not
in favor of granting the leave of-abN
sence, and that his committee will
make an unfavorable report on the
proposed change
I'm not in favor of allowing Fer
nandez to hold onto the police job and
at the same time be filling the legislas
tive position" said Murray I'VE would
have to break in new man at.sfhe
police court, and he would hardly have
time to familiarize himself with the
duties before he would be out again"
So 1t looks as if Fernandez uftist
either quit the police job entirely to
take a sixty day position In the House,
or else pass up the journal clerks job
and the good salary attached for q
much smaller salary in his present po-
sition.
Members OF the Oahu delegation this
morning expressed regret that Fernan-
dez can not take the journal clerks
position, as he gave much satisfaction
two years ago and the duties require
experience as well as skill for hest
execution. tk~k

to shipping men. 1t is stated that the

Fort Ruger, Fort De Russy and Pearl

places has been the one on which
officials have been figuring for some
time.

Pearl Harbor would be the garrisoned

LIFE SAVER LOSES LEGACY
SIGNATURE Cut From CodiciI to a Will
lnvaIidates the Whole.

New York, July 27.-Under a ruling
by Surrogate Fowler yesterday
George Shuts of Cooperstown loses
legacy of $4,000 left him by Isaac
Pickford Francis for saving his life
in Lake Otsego ten years ago. Mr..
Francis, who was retired merchant,
gave Shuts one-third of the estate
and Shuts mother further bequest
of $4,000.
The Surrogate declared the will in
valid because the testator's name had
been cut from a codicil to the will,
which did not change the bequest to
Shuts and his mother. The Surro-
gate held that the codicil could not
be deemed a separate instrument and
that in the absence of proof TO the
contrary he must find that the tesla
tor cut off the signature himself. He
also said that as the testator appear
ed to have left grandchildren who
were not mentioned in the will or cod
icil and the chief bene6ciaries were
not related to him the sentence
which the Surrogate is constrained
to pronounce accords not only with
the law but most probably with right
and justice"
