that they are headed for the sandhills

in Oklahoma, where they will lay their
eggs. Possibly they may go clear to

Straw Hats and Trimming Wrinkles.
Correspondence of The Journal
NEW YORK, February 9Th. Some of
the prettiest and most striking frocks
show great use of striped materials, in
wolfe, silk, novelty mixtures, cottons and
linens. Striped and bordered challies are
very chic and never before have these
been shown in such variety of dainty
colorings and patterns.
Borders and bordered effects are re-
sponsible for the style of many of the
best models put out by exclusive design
ers. Cleverly manipulated to bring out
the lines of the frock, these are not only
most effective, but are the greatest pos
sible aid to clever dressers who must
study economy, since little other trim
ming is required, and the little dress
maker can turn such frocks out almost
as srnartly as the high-priced profession
ais. It is largely a question of choosing
the right pattern and not attempting
anything very complicated. The very
handsomest costumes sent over bv
French houses are usually simple in de-
sign though expensive in detail work and
materials.

rather narrow white stripes spaced at
nearly an inch, was made with one of the
gathered skirts with raised waist line,

ent modes-but as it hangs straight
down and the material has little BODY.
the effect is as narrow as the hips per-
init. Above the three wide tucks that
nearly met at the foot of the skirt, was a
band of ecru Venise lace in a pattern
suggesting an old altar cloth, edged on
either side with tiny double piping of
black satin and deep rose colored chiffon.
The square lace draperies of the bodice
were edged with double hens, like over
tapping tucks of the rose and black chif-
fon. A small square plastron and collar
of the rose combined with narrow lace
and draped girdle of black satin COM
pleted the costume.
A SMART LINEN DRESS.
Another dress for the same order was
OF heavy gray linen with one of the
square cut short coats that are the COM
ing style for tailormades. This was
trimmedswith heavy Cluny lace, dyed to
match and used band fashion on the
skirt and coat, as wide braids have been
employed during the winter. Buttons
Of heavy crochet in the same color, and
handsome frog fastenings of gray mer-
cerized braid were used to close the
jacket just below the waist line. A hat
of very coarse straw with high square
crown trimmed with twist and stiff
cravat bow of velvet was all in shades of
gray. The waists that went with this
suit were both of white cotton wolfe en-
broidered in Bulgarian style with most
gorgeous combinations of reds, blues,
yellows and greens, with dash of black
in the necktie to heighten their style.

The value of DR.. Williams Pink Pills

RIOT OVER TEN
CENT TICKETS
Three Go to Hospital Because
Two Hawaiians Want a
Rebate.
lFrom Thursaay,s Advertlser.l

A mansfield riot disturbed the ORR
entail calm of Moiliili yesterday even
ing, which resulted in almost the en-
tire special staff being called out on
the jump, and three of the rioters were
finally taken to the hospital, all more
or less badly damaged. The fight was
between Hawaiians and Japanese, one
of the first examples of trouble be-
tween these two nationalities yet ex-
perienced.
The refusal of the Japanese proprie-
tor of moving picture show to per
nit two Hawaiians to enter on FIVE
cent tickets preeipitated the riot. One
of the men had purchased two of the
tickets, and the police believe that he
was trying to get himself and his com
panion in on the same, although sub
sequent events are rather vague.
When the proprietor persisted in his
refusal, demanding the payment of an
other nickel, the purchasers eompan-
ion, Kaaikaula, hauled off and wal
loped the Japanese in the face. 1t
was lovely wallop, breaking the man s
nose, knocking out five of his teeth and
shutting both eyes.
The next moment there was an uproar
and the two nationalities were mixed
in general confusion all over the floor.
The chairs and benches were broken to
pieces and all the lamps were also
smashed, the burning oil running all
over the place, which escaped fire by
"a miracle.
Several women were injured in the
scrimmage, but not badly. The Hawa-
iian who struck the first blow had his
hand cut with knife, and a young
Hawaiian had cash cut in his head
which took four stitches to sew up.
The chief ordered the injured ones
brought to the hospital in the police
auto, the Hawaiians who started the
fight being placed under arrest. The
house is situated a little to the town
side of the church, below the spot where
Hawaiian girl was recently killed in
an auto accident.

COMMISSIONER
MAY Be CONSUL
LANG Lean Fang Will Probably
Be Named at Once for the
Hawaiian Post.

The fact that the Chinese consul has
denied The Advertisers story that his
cabled resignation has gone forward to
the Chinese legation at Washington,
is no particular reason why the story
is not correct. AS matter of fact,
it is correct.
1t is further certainty that the
resignation will be accepted and that
instructions viii arrive, probably to-
day, for the Chinese commissioner here
to take charge of the local consulate
and preside over local Chinese affairs
until new consul is named
1t is further probable that the one
named will be Liang Lean Fang, the
commissioner himself, who has been the
second secretary of the Washington
legation. The acting-consul win take
charge here as soon as his authority
arrives, and will spend some months
in Honolulu at any rate.
Yesterday the resignation of Liang
Kwo Wing was celebrated Throughout
Chinatown.

are good prospects of its completion in
the near future.
F. l.. Hadley, Of Wailuku, is expect.

lights installed in the main streets of
Wailuku and several at Kahului while

skirts of both places.
Lights win also be installed along the
road between the two towns. The plant
will be situated halfway between Wal
luku and Kahului, Hadley selecting oil
as his fuel for generating purposes in
stead of water as was first thought.
Contractor Chaplin is rushing work on
the new Episcopal Church and it win

EARTH SLIDE ON
TANTALUS FALLS
into MAN0A VALLEY

There was landslide up on Tantalus
yesterday morning, not a political one
but just plain dirt. A small section
of the mountain slid off its perch and
tumbled into ManoS Valley, and now
the owners of the part that did the
sliding will have to change the loca-
ton of their boundary stakes, although
the owners of the land in the valley,
whose real estate has been covered,
may also make claim under the old
law of fotsam and jetsam.
The slide of earth carried away about
fifty feet of the premises of James G.
Wilder, who is now in Paris, missing
his house by about six feet and the
water tank by a few inches. The slide
also caused several large cracks in the
earth surrounding the home of G. II.
Diekey. Mr.. Dickey may have to put
a hoop around his yard and caulS the
cracks.
Quite a slice of the land belonging
to the Bishop Estate is also reported
to have shifted from the mountain to
the valley, carrying several trees
with 1t.
It is believed that the heavy rains
during the past few days loosened the
earth from its rock bed and the heavy
winds acting on the trees and shrub
berry gave it the first impetus to start
1t moving.
