Export Forbidden.
This proviSo is inserted because In
two OF the provinces of Canada (On-
tario and Quebec> there are regulations
which forbid the export from these
provinces OF wood intended for use in
the manufacture of paper The situa
ton is peculiar. The government Of
the Dominion does not own and has
no jurisdiction over the land of the
older provinces OF the Dominion.
These lands, known as crown lands
are the property OF the various prov
inces, and In the case OF Ontario and
Quebec the officials OF the two prov
inces have elected to put these re-
strictions upon the use of the crown
timber lands. Wood pulp may be ex-
ported under certain conditions, be.
cause the wood pulp Industry OF On
tario and Quebec Is thereby promoted
But there la rigid provision against
the export Of raw timber
Now, in addition TO Ontario and Que

Of the Canadian provinces, also have

tions have been imposed. at this point

WILL TRY TO HOLD
THE LURuNE HERE
Scheduled to Sail Before Floral
Parade-0nly Boat for
Twelve Days.

An effort win probably be made 70
induce tho shippers Of sugar by the
next Lurline, scheduled to sail ON Feb
ruary 2l, to consent to the postponing
of the sailing hour until after the
Floral Parade on the twenty second. It
is thought that if the shippers will
agree to having the vessel held here,
the Matson management win raise no
objection.
It happens that, because of the drop
ping of one trip Of the Honolulan and
the charter of the wilhelmina by the
shriners, that the Lurline will be the.
only passenger boat able to carry pas
sengers TO the Coast from the sixteenth
to the twenty.seventh Of the month.
The Japanese liner Chiyo Mara and the
British steamer Asia both sail, but the
.coastwise laws forbid them taking
anyone aboard here. As consequence
there will undoubtedly be big run on
the Lurline accommodations, as she is
a popular boat In any event.
1t is thought that it would be unfor-
tunate if the only boat leaving for
twelve days should have to go on the
eve of the annual fete and the effort
to have her held for twenty-four hours
viii be made. 1t is thought that if the
shippers of sugar at this end would
agree, Captain Matson would as usual
be glad to help ont 1t is known that
he has taken a great personal interest
in the charter of the Wilhelmina by the
Shriners, who are making the trip to
the Islands for the Parade, and if the
holding back of the Lurline to enable
the fifty or sixty people, who are likely
to be leaving by her, can be arranged
without loss to anyone, it is believed
that the Matson Navigation Company,
as well as Castle s Cooke win readily
agree to the change in schedule.

interesting Ceremonies in Con

Castle Memorial.

The exercises of the formal presenta-
ton of the Castle memorial will take
place at Pauahi hall, Oahu College,
next Wednesday afternoon, February g.,
at half-past three. This memorial is
presented to the college by the trustees
in appreciation of the service to the

Mr.. Castle was the college treasurer

terest and generous giving, was always
one of the school g best friends. The
memorial is in the form of bas-relief,
sculptured by Gordon osborne, and rep
resents Mr.. and Mrs. Castle sitting in
garden. AS work of art and as a
likeness, it has been much commended.
Judge A. S. Hartwell, a longtime
friend, will speak reminiscently of his
acquaintance with Father and Mother
Castle. Judge Dole will present the
memorial in the name of the corpora
tion and Lowthian Williams, president
of the senior class, viii accept it for the
school. A pretty ceremony of decora-
tion will be performed by the senior
class, led by Laura Atherton and Cyril
Damon. The college glee clubs will
sing.
The exercises will interest all the old
friends of the family, and friends of
the family and of the school of the
younger generation as well. Weather
permitting, the program will be given
ont of doors in front of Pauahi hall.

RUSSIAN BOY is
KILLED ON FRONT
ExplOdes Gasoline Tank With a
Firecracker-Left Leg Is
Torn Off.

Playing with frecraekers given him
by Chinaman to help celebrate Ko-
nohi, thirteen-year-o Domeki zazilov
yesterday exploded large tank par
italy full of gasoline, the end of the
drum almost tearing his leg from his
body. The tragedy was witnessed by
large number of people, stevedores
and workmen on the wharves, and the
police ambulance rushed the boy to the
Queen IS Hospital as fast as possible.
Doctor Cooper amputated the leg and
endeavored to save the boys life, but
the hemorrhage and shock were too
much for him, and he died few hours
after the accident.
An inquest was held last night, rs-
sulting in a verdict of accidental death.
Domeki lived with his parents, Rus
slams, in the Iwilei stockade, and was
playing with number of other Russian
children along the waterfront. At the
foot of the Hackfeld wharf the Ha-
waiian Fisheries Company has num-
Der of gasoline iron tanks drawn up on
the shore, from which the sampan en-.
gines are provided. A number are
empty, and other are filed with dis
tillate.
After throwing around the frecrack-
ers for some time, DOmeh threw one
under one of these tanks. He was seen
to watch it expectantly for some time,
and then, as, it did not go off, he walked
toward it.
just as he neared it there was ter
rife explosion, and the eark shot high
in the air. The force of the explosion,
while going away from the boy, blew
out the end of the drum, which caught
him ON the left leg just below the hip.
When his mangled and bloody body was
picked up there was little left of the
leg but split bone and torn muscles.
