mail, and the Wilhelmina due on Tues
day with one days accumulation.
Schooner Crescent's Record Passage.
The intimation that the tive-masted
schooner Crescent had reached Port
Townsend in twelve and a half days
indicates that she must have had eX-
tremely favorable weather. for it is
the fastest time ever made, accord
ing to statistics.
The record was established in 1880,
when the Hawaiian schooner Kaui-
keaouli arrived from Port Townsend
in thirteen days seventeen hours.
Her time had never been beaten I'M
til the Crescent lowered it by clip
ping off one day and an hour. The
American bark Fresno came close to
it in 1895, WIN she accomplished the
journey from Port Townsend in four
teen days ten hours.
Lurline Coming Tonight.
The Matson liner Lurline is expected
in at midnight from Kahului The
work of loading her will begin imme-
diately, and when she leaves here on
Saturday afternoon for San Francisco
she will have a full cargo, totaling
about seven thousand tons. The chief
item will be sugar, with a few odd
lines of island produce.
Klnau Replaces cIaudine.
The Kinau will take up the Clau-
dimes run to Maui and Hawaii ports
tomorrow, while the Claudine is be-
ing overhauled. The Mauna Loa is
running on the Kauai run in place of
the Kinau, and the Claudine will in
all probability go on the marine rail
way today.
The Kinau, when she came up to
the dock this morning, looked fine,
and in spite of her twenty-eight years
she is said to be as sound as ever
AS soon as the Claudine has been
overhauled the Kinau will take up her
old running to Kauai, the Claudine
will resume the Hawaii-Maui service
and the Mauna Loa will be over
hauled.
Mexican Out This Morning.
The American-Hawaiian steamer
Mexican got away shortly after five
O'Clock this morning for Salina Cruz.

eral merchandise.

MALAY ENTERPRISE
CONTINUED from page oneJ

Kong Lee (Perak) Plantations, Lin
tied, of Glasgow, who went out to the
Peninsula about four years ago to rep
resent DR.. Waterhouse, returned to
Honolulu on the Siberia the first OF
the month, and as soon as he arrived
the work of organizing the company
and getting the stock subscribed be-
gan to be rushed. Success has met
the efforts of DIR. Warehouse and Mr..
Cool1son, and it IS understood that
sufficient stock has already been sub
scribed to assure the plantation being
started.
Five thousand acres makes a big
cocoanut plantation Mr.. Cookson
states that it is proposed to plant 5000
acres to cocoanuts to start with. This
will mean no less than 100000 trees
which, at full bearing would produce,
even at the estimate of fifty nuts per
tree, seven and half million nuts
per year. And it is considered that
an estimate of fifty nuts per tree is
exceedingly moderate, as the Kong
Lee (Perak) Plantation is producing
an average of seventy nuts per tree
from young trees.
One feature which greatly simplifes
the transportation problem, and will
materially reduce the cost of produc-
ton is that a navigable river runs
through the center of the 5000 acres
of the proposed plantation The nuts
and copra can thus be taken to mar
ket by water, or the Chinese vessels
can ascend the river and load directly
at the place where the copra is pro-
duced.
The bindings Cocoanut Estate will
be managed by Mr.. Cookson, now gen.
eral manager of the Kong Lee planta-
tions. He was formerly a teacher in
the Kamehameha Schools, and for the
past four years has been engaged in
rubber and cocoanut planting in The
Malay States. The Selama Estate is
to be managed by C. b. Thompson,
who was also formerly teacher in
the Kamehameha Schools. He has
been in the Malay States for about
two years and has had considerable
experience in rubber For a time he
was acting manager of the Kota Tam
pan Rubber Estate, leaving there 10
open up the Selama Estate.
The two estates are in the same
district, though not adjoining. 1t is
possible, however, to go from one to
the other in three hours by automo-
bile.
The making Of copra on the Dind-
ings Estate will be greatly different
from the method pursued in the South
Seas, and the results will be much
better. The method now practiced on
the Kong Lee plantations will be that
used on the new plantations.

stantly, but the year is divided into
six parts for practical purposes. The
plantation is divided up into ten fields,
and one field is picked at a time. It
takes about two months to go over
the entire plantation, and by the time
the pickers have finished it is time TO
start over again. The nuts are held
for month before being turned into
copra.
Did you ever try to husk cocoa
nut? If you did, it probably took you
from ten minutes to half an hour But
the Chinese employed for the business
on a cocoanut plantation, Mr.. Cookson
states, each husk no less than 1900
in a day.
A stake three feet high is firmly
planted in the ground and shod with

Handy With the Rope

Custer: That she can throw a
lariat as we'll as teach school, was
shown by Miss Alta Scott, a young
teacher, who is displaying the fur
of a coyote caught by that method.
Miss Scott was on her way to
Hermosa when she spied the ami
NAL. She had the lariat handy
and, spurring her horse, gave pur-
suit and when she let the rope fly,
deftly slipped it over the coyotes
neck. She had no weapon, but
we'll aimed stones dispatched the
coyote and the hide was brought
to town and is being made into a
rug.

A Brooklyn Sunday school
teacher once had occasion to cat
echize new pupil whose ignorance
of his Testament would have been
amusing had it not been SO ap-
palling. One Sunday she asked
the little fellow how many COM
mandments there are. To her sur
prise the lad answered, glibly
enough, Ten, ma'am." "'And
now, Sammy" asked the teacher,
what would be the result if you
should break one of them?" Then
there'd be nine,'' triumphantly
answered the youngster. Fun.

Mr.. KEMP PLEASES AUDIENCE
First Number of the Lecture
Course Proves to be Better
Than Advertised

A well-tilled house greeted Ev-
erett Kemp Tuesday evening at
the Grand theatre and listened to
the story of "Sevenoaks" as told
by this versatile impersonator and
interpreter with an absorbing in
terest seldom manifested in any
production which has appeared in
our city. The speaker was intro
duced by Attorney O. X. Whit
ney and after a few appreciative
remarks, waded into the story.
Not dull moment existed from
the time of the beginning of the
narrative until the last words were
spoken and the audience hardly
realized that they had been enter
tained for nearly two hours with
out wait in the program. AS
Mr.. Kemp proceeded with the
beautiful rural story of Seven
oaks" the attentiveness of the lis
teners grew apace and at times
the silence of expectancy was so
profound that the drop of pin
could almost be heard. and then,
again, the comic side of the pic
ture was turned toward the aud
fence, causing laughter to supplant
the more pathetic veins of the
narrative. The versatility of the
man is amazing. Taking over
twelve different characters during
the recital, he clothed them in
genuine individuality, each one
distinct and separate from the
other and adapted himself to the
various roles with keen perception
and Interpretation. We hope that
Mr.. Kemp will some day visit our
city again.
The committee of business men
who have been instrumental in
securing the lecture course for this
winter are very much gratified
over the results thus far and are
very grateful to the people of
Philip and vicinity for the support
and assure you that the following
numbers will be as greatly enjoyed
by those who attend as the first
number of the course which was
rendered Tuesday evening.

Salem: A young man named
William Frick met with q tragic
death Thursday. Frick, who was,
carpenter, was at work in one
of the grain bins in the big eleva{
tor which was filed with wheat.
The workmen in the adjoining bin
we're attracted by Frick's calls for
help. One ran to his assistance
and found him being sucked down
by the wheat. He tried to attract
the attention of the engineer but
the distance was too great. Final
" one of the men ran to the en-
gine room and had the machinery
stopped. They then returned to
the bin and all that could be seen
of Frick was his hands. He was
gotten out as soon as possible, but
life was extinct, he having beeu
smothered to death.

has been suggested that the pas
sage of the Simmons agricultural
experiment bill of the sixty-frst
congress would result in the tax.
ing up of such matters as farming
with dynamite in a practical man
ner that would advance the agri.
cultural interests of the country
to great degree.
Out of the ENHANCEMENT of po-
litical conditions within both of
the old political parties a few
things are beginning to show that
look like real indications of what
may, or may not happen, and
firstly to be noted is the drift of
Wall street influence to the Har.
mon candidacy. The great money
power of the country evidently be.
lieves Governor Harmon can win
against President Taft. The sec.
ond point being made clear is that
the Roosevelt talk is proving
more than interesting" and is in
fact disturbing" to administra,
ton circles. The only real activ-
ity, however, in the republican
camp is that of the LaFollette
supporters, who are industriously
booming their candidate through
the medium of a we'll organized
bureau.
When congress convenes on De-
cember 4th the country may ex-
pect to hear great noises resulting
from announcements, pronounce
ments, and discoveries of the sew
eral chairmen of special commit
tees who were delegated by the
special session to investigate near
ly every phase of the nations
economic, industrial and political
condition. Nearly every one of
these chairmen started out with
the fond hope of being able to un-
earth either sensation or 1T least
few grafters, and the exploita
tion of their work is bound to
make fine material for home con-
sumption in the different districts
in the interval between December
1st and Christmas.
For the first time in seven years
meeting of the Cabinet was held
at the White House this week,
instead of at the Executive Offices.
