selfish needs Of one man, the con-

Of such are the suffagettes, in large
numbers: women who have put their
youth, their affection and every

whose disappointment at finding
him spoiled by years of coddling is
keen enough to darken their lives.

.HILo, September 1.-THE moment
news Of the breakwater bids had been

that Metzger has for months past been

ding, it being most generally believed
that he was interested with the Phila-
+, delphia .lRreakwater Company. g,
Metzger returned from Honolulu last
Sunday and was asked the question
outlined above. He answered that it
was at present impossible. to say what
would be the recommendation of Major
Wootcn in regard to the bids, and the
entire matter was still in many ways
uncertain, and for this reason it would
be for him preferable to say nothing at
present about what he had to do with

he admitted, he would have consider

next chunk of breakwater.
Metzger was asked whether in his
Judgment the protest against the low
est bidder, the Philadelphia firm, on the
grounds that it had not furnished
samples of the rock which it intended
to use, was likely to prove fatal He
replied that he did not think SO. In
the past the samples which had been
submitted with bids, had been allowed
to remain in Honolulu, and they had
never been used as a standard of com
parison. AS matter of fact when Lord
& Young bid on their present contract,
they submitted samples of stone from
their Waiakea quarry only, and this
had not prevented them from using
rock from the Kapoho quarry when Il
was found that the Waiakea quarry
could not be used to advantage.

Nothing can be done about school
building for WATERFOWL, according to a
statement made by Chairman Eben Low
of the ways and means committee Of
the, board of supervisors before Super
intendent Pope Of department of pub
lie instruction yesterday afternoon.
Low says that there is absolutely no
money to build a schoOlhouse at Water
town and it is impossible to hire a
building suitable for a school. The
county has no money to expend in the
building of a temporary structure,
even, and if it had there is no land
available.
The Bishop Estate was asked year
ago by superintendent Pope to give
some land for such a purpose or to lot
the department have Il on long lease,
but nothing came Of the negotiations
which were entered into AT that time.

The antibllboard club, started BY

Since the Legislature passed it's bill

more numerous and are more offensive,
from the standpoint of the appear

difference between those now used and
those used before the law became effec-

There has been some curiosity as to

The reason is plain. Automobile
owners purchase cars for the pleasure

easy means of getting into the country
districts, the comfort they obtain in
getting away from the artificial sights
in the city to the natural scenery only
to be found miles and miles away from

The auto takes lovers of scenery and
smiling nature to just the. scenes they
like, and it is upon Goodrich tires, as

That is where the rub comes They

DISMAsTED SCHOONER
JUST Makes PORT
Schooner Sailor Boy Springs a
Leak-HurriCane Snapped
Off Main and Mizzen.
(Ffom Thursday's Advertiser.l

Rolling heavily, leaking badly, and
with her main and mizzen masts gone,
the American schooner Sailor Boy was
towed into port shortly after one
o clock yesterday afternoon and an
chored in the stream. just a week
ago the vessel was struck by a hur-
ricane, but at the o1tset the sails were
hauled down and she rode the storm
bravely, when suddenly in a heavy
lureh the main and mizzen masts snap
ped off and fell, carrying away much
of the rigging. The crew was set TO
work to clear away the wreckage, but
owing to. the fearful blow prevailing
this was difficult and the work was
retarded
Meanwhile the bottom became strain
ed and the seams opened until the sea
poured in at an alarming rate. The
pumps were manned and the crew went
at them with a vim for the ship had
not only to be saved but their own
lives. Captain Enatt showed a good
example in the energy he displayed to
keep the ship above the surface and
showed considerable navigating skill.
The water gained steadily but the
crew worked with a will. The captain
had been injured in the falling of the
masts but he contlnIed to direct oper-
ations. Five days ago it was thought
the vessel would have to be abandoned,
but she remained above although roll
ing like log. Yesterday morning she
arrived off Diamond Head and re-
port was sent to town from the obser-
walton station that an unknown three
masted schooner in distress was coming
in. The Tug Intrepid went out to meet
the vessel and brought her in.
The schooner which left Tanning Is
land on August Il for San Francisco
has cargo OF. l04 tons of eOpra, eurios
and other small shipments from the
British cable island. The schooner will
be put on the marine railway for re-
pairs.

TOWSE AND MURRAY
MIX 1T A LITTLE
Supervisor ResentS What He
Said Was an Insult to
the Supervisors.

That Ed Towse iRsulted the members
of the board of supervisors in his re-
marks Wednesday evening was the
opinion of Supervisor Murray, and the
latter took warm exceptions to the re-
marks of the representative from Kai
mulsi, with result that they ended in
each shaking long, quivering fingers in
the face of the other and had to be
both called to order by the Mayor.
1t all came about over the matter
of the fire station for Kaimuki. the
residents of that section holding that
Murray was averse to allowing them
any FIRE station at ALL Murray said
that he was not opposed to fire sta.
ton in the ozone belt, but he was OPP
posed to the purchase of the selected
site at a cost of $4,000, this being the
Noyes lot, the price including $500
for the house upon it. The proposal
is that the Territory would pay $500
to complete its park lot, leaving the
city to pay for the building, $1,000, be-
sides several hundred more to make a
residence over into fire hall.
Members of the board believe they
can construct fire station, when the
time comes and the apparatus is avail.
able, for much less than $4,000. The
Territory has offered the county a lot
adjoining the Noyes lot, free, for FIRE
station, and all that the county gov
eminent would have to do would be TO
build the house for the apparatus
Towse said that Kaimukites ought to
know where they wanted their fire
house, and they had decided on the
Noyes lot.
