TABU CRACKERS
AND CONFETTI

Although there was no quorum at
the meeting of directors of the Mer.
chants Association yesterday after
noon, the four present advanced some
business subject to approval by the

The fleet entertainment committee

with preparations, the Association
having $3.50 available on condition that
the Chamber of Commerce give like
sum. A day of field sports for the

officers are designed.
1t was voted to ask cooperation of

WOMAN NEIGHBOR OF CEDERLOFS
GIVES SIGNIFICANT EVIDENCE

The star witness for the prosecution
in the McMahou trial. Mrs Alexander
n. Cederlof, widow of the man whom
Sergeant John McMahon is accused OF
numbering, is telling her story of the
shooting this afternoon This sensa.
tional feature of the trial has been
eagerly or anXiously awaited by both
sides, her evidence being regarded as
the most important Of any for the
government.
Mrs. Cederlof was to have been put
on the witness stand this morning, but
she did not arrive in time, and at
ll:45 a recess was taken until
O'Clock, at which time the widow was
to take the witness chair.
Important evidence for the prosecu
ton as given this morning by Mrs
Alois FeiereiseL next door neighbor OF
the Cederlofs, who stated under oath
that when she grabbed Sergeant Nc
Mahon as he was being led out Of the
Cederlof gate after the shooting and
asked him why he did it, he replied
Just crazy"
To this Chief Of Detectives McDunie
added his testimony to the effect that
when he, escorting the prisoner to
town the day after the shooting, asked
him why he shot Cederlof, Mcmahon
said. That shows what booze will
do"

IS SUMMONED
TO WASHINGTON

A telegram was received at mill
tary headquarters this morning from
Washington, directing Lieutenant
Sheridan, of the Fifth Cavalry, to pro-
ceed at once to the capital, by the first
transportation
That was all the message contained
Nothing was said about why he is TO
report, and no surmise would be made
by the local officials. 1t is not clear
from the telegram whether Lieutenant
Sheridan is to go by the next trans
port or by a mail liner. It is expected
that definite orders on this point will
be received later.

court thought he had, so Andrews
asked but one question: How far
were you from the house when you
met McMahon and Glant?"
Thirty or forty yards" was the re-
ply.
That's ALL" said Andrews, and
Hoag was excused.
William X. Sixsmith took the stand.
After the usual preliminary questions
he was asked how close his quarters
were to the Cederlof house. About
block he replied. Questioned, he
stated that he saw Mcmahon at his
training quarters about 1880 the even.

NEW INTER4SLANp STEAMER
KILAUEA WELCOMED TO PORT

1t is doubtful whether any new boat
ever got so great a welcome to Homo
lulu as the Kilauea did this morning.
Thousands thronged the wharves to
watch her pass up to the old Matson
dock, the steamers screamed their
alohas as she passed, and the Hawai-
ian band, from the wharf at the foot
OF Fort street, played Aloha Oe. 1t
was indeed an inspiring sight to see
the Kilauea come up to her moorings
in such auspicious circumstances.
Contrary to all the expectations of
the people in the Wilhelmina, the HI
lauea was the first to arrive. She
was off port at daylight after a run
of six days and fourteen hours. The
medical officers and the customs men
were soon through with their work
Shortly after they had left the boat,

BITUuTHIC BID
LOWEST FOR
KING STREET

Joe Gilman's bid on behalf of the
Bitulithic Paving Co. was the lowest
for the paving of King street from
Nuuanu street to Nuuamu stream and
Kekaulike street from King street to
the harbor. 1t was the lowest of four
bids by three bidders for the whole
work.
In competition with bitulithic Lord

ately. Both the two last-mentioned
bidders went beyond the appropria-
ton, which is $4,000 or thereabouts
as the fund now stands.
The entire work includes storm sew
ers and appurtenances and a concrete
base. The bids were as follows:

was quickly demonstrated, however,
that there was something wrong with
the mechanism, for not an inch could
the machinery be made to bulge. Then
Captain Freeman began to get wor
ried and took hand in directions to
the workers.
The delay kept on growing and at
last the whole engineering staff was

had clogged up the parts SO badly that
nothing would bulge them. The men
had to take some of the covers off

point to prove Is whether they are

The character of female educa-
ton may seem foreign to our sphere
of sanitation. yet it has a close re-
lation to the physique. Co-educa-

overwhelming proofs that the rates
OF mental development OF boys and
girls are SO different. and the men
tai characters also. that the two
sexes cannot possibly keep pace
without one tagging and keeping
back the other. or being unduly
strained to keep up. Girls naturally
surpass the boys and yet are dread
fully strained in some ways In the
competition. The Curriculum In the
female college should, therefore.
not be patterned after that OF male
schools. and We notice as fact that
the trend is now toward domestic
economy in the former with a view
of making the alumnae better part
ners In a life team. not necessarily
wage-workers.
Nevertheless. the woman who Is

MERELY RAIN

The American poet, Longfellow,

immortalized himself and his sub

ton of his on the dampness was
penned before the days of irrigation
in the then unknown west. When
he wrote Into each life some rain
must fall" he sounded the malcon-
tent of those to whom rain meant
depression.
Instead of the lament echoed by
those who have known rain as an
untoward circumstance in the life

part of a great domain an acclaim
of rejoicing when there is precipita-
