Mauna Kea Was Tot Aground.
At the offices of the Inter-Tsland
company the report that the Mauna
Kea went on a reef at Makena Point
Maui, is denied, They say that she
was not near this point and that the
story is made out of the whole cloth
the only basis for it being that some
of the engineers say that on her last
trip they thought she struck float
ing log, AS for stopping for ffteer
minutes and backing off the reef, it is
stated that nothing of the kind oc
cured.
The Inter-Island officers think that
the story was given currency through

are interested in trying to queer

FIELDER CHALLENGES BLEASE.
Intimates Personal Encounter and
Suggests Libel Suit.

Atlanta. Ga.. June 2.-Attorney
Thomas B. Fielder, of Atlanta, today
issued an open letter to Cole. L.
Blease, governor of South Carolina
practically challenging him to per-
soral encounter or to a libel suit, II
the governor is so inclined. He states
that if the charges he (FeIder) makes
ara true, then Blease is not fit to be
the governor of even "nigger' col
Thy. Fielder states that if his charges
arc untrue, then they are libelous. and
offers if Governor Blease will bring
suit, to give bond for any amount he
asks for his personal expenses and for
his attorneys fees. which he will pay
provided Blease wins.
Moreover. with apologies to the
shades of my departed ancestors,
he says, 'I modestly claim to be your
equal and if you are aggrleved by
the charges it will be my pleasure to
meet you at such time and place,
without the confines Of your State,
that may suit your convenience, to the
end that abundact opportunity may be
afforded to redress your grievances" !"

AFTER MANY DAYS.
To Our Girls, Nhc Meet at Due West
Female College on the Occasion
of Its Fiftieth Anniversary.

Once more we're brought together
Where we in girlhood days,
Spent years and months of pleasure'
Ere the parting of our ways.
Our hearts are full, o'erhowing
With memories of those times,
Our beings filled with music
OF the olden love-toned chimes.
impatient, wait the elasping
Of loved ones in our arms,
Our eyes, with greed desiring
To witness time wrought charms.
To catch the glints Of pleasure
That flash from eye to eye,
To Danish every sorrow
To vanquish every sigh;
To tell about the loved ones
Who, at home, with us rejoice;
And all that makes US joyous,
TO lovingly give voice;
To see once more the mother
Of our young scholastic life,
TO crown with lasting garlands
Her brow, with good so rife;
To view again her beauty,
And for her contest wage;
Renew to her our pledges
In her fiftieth year OF age.
Bespeak for her the bounty
That pours from open hand
Our fond, our loving mother
The choicest in the land.
In this, our time of gladness,
Let there be not one blur;
Tho time has aged US slightly
We're the same girls that We were.
Mayhap a CLINT OF silver
Has touched the tress of old,
Yet, the heart beats on, as ever,
The same old heart of gold
Then in our arms EMBODIED,
Let there be naught but mirth,
And love, and Joy and gladness
This last time on this earth.

Hon, Wyatt Aiken. He said he knew
Mr.. IDominick very we'll; had heard
him speak and that aside from his be-
ing a good "miXer,' he possessed
more ability as a speaker than rne
governor and that if he got before the
people, Aiken would not be able to
hold his own.
The announcement in the papers
that Mr.. Dominick will be candidate
for Congressman Aiken's seat, has
provoked considerable talk and specu-

Gentleman and that if the report was
not true, the matter had taken such a
shape that there can be little doubt
but that Mr.. Doninick will be urged
to make the race.

Inspectors Report No. 2 Township.
I submit my report as directed by

in my township are in better condiQon
than I have ever known lnem Tor this
time of the year. Some of the roads

The road leading from Mrs. Wilson
Caldwell's place down to the township
line at the old Blair place has been
worked by the changing and is in
splendid condition; better than
have ever known it, and I have known
it for forty years. I find some roads
too narrow-not room enough for wa
gons to pass each other, with no
bitches at all. I recommend that
overseers will attend to the widening
of said road. AS far as l know, all
my roads have overseers. have in

at all. Fill up the Old bridge gully

task of burning the war bonds issued
by the government during the civil
war has been resumed. Represent

Scientific Freight Handling.
San Francisco Call, November g.
The American-Hawaiian people have
just received report from Hamburg
regarding the condition in which
freight from here via Tehuantepec ar
rived there. In view of the numerous
transfers necessary in shipping by
this route, shippers will be interested
in knowing that practically all the
freight shipped this season reached its
European destinations in perfect con
dition.
These shipments are loaded here on
steamers of the n-Hawaiian
fleet At Salina Cruz the freight is
transferred to cars, which, for greater
facility in loading from ship tackle,
have removable roofs. At Puerto Mex
leo the freight is again transferred
from cars to the Europe bound steam
ers. Freight handling over this route
has been reduced to a science and the
good condition in which California
shipments reach Europe has helped
the reputation of California products
in the foreign markets.

the lowest and accompanied by proper
credentials.
On the motion being put the report
was unanimously dopted,
Low OHends Murray.
A proposition was received from $.
F. Bowser & Co., FER Associated Gar
age, Ltd, for supplying a gasoline
storage outfit for the city garage.
Thence arose an acrimonious passage
between Low and Murray over the
question as to which committee the
matter should be referred, the ways
and means or the police committee.
A reference by Low to familiarity
with tanks" was taken by Murray as
q personal insult, which Low immoLi-
atcly disclaimed the intention of. For
a time it looked as if the business
would go to the police instead of the
police committee, but the breeze
passed and the police committee will
report on the proposition.

relative to whether the company had
been consulted by the committee rs
to it's part in paving. He said the
committee had not consulted the com
pany until he had preached the mat
ter to it himself. Then he had dis
cussed the matter with MI Low.
The company would prefer paving
that involved a higher initial cost with
a low expense for maintenance than
a lower initial cost with high IN
pense for maintenance We believe
that the ohia blocks will have glcl;rr
durability than the bitulithic whore
the traffic is heavy" Mr.. BallCutyne
proceeded. I'VE undoubtedly favor
ohia blocks, especially for the space
between the rails. The difference in
cost is not worth considering, being a
matter of only few hundred dollars
| firmly believe that the ohia block
will be in good condition when the
bitulithic paving is worn out"
Mr.. Low asked if the company had
not found ohia blocks it laid on Fort
street unsatisfactory. Mr.. Ballen-
tyne answered that the experience
had not been long enough for a test.
Mr.. Low asked him if he was not
aware that the blocks had worked w
an eight of an inch. Mr.. Ballentyne
did not know it, but said the blocks
were not properly laid,
Nj. Gilman, on the mayor asking
if the contractors present had any

Mayor Fern testified to the long life
of ohia blocks on the wharves, from
his personal observation dating back
to fourteen years before he became q
county supervisor. He was surprised
at receiving no data on the merits OF
the paving bids, as he would be asked
to sign the contract, before the com
mittee brought in its recommends
