view from the base of the bowllike
crater.
Upon that summit stood artillery
men with signal flags, and near them
was a wireless mast, not in use, as the
wireless plant on the Navajo is out of
commission.
The Navajo towed the red-hagged
target along the course toward the
fixed target. A shout went up the shaft
to the signalmen to tell the tug to hit
up to seven knots. The flags wigwagged
and a red flag suddenly Haunted over
the tug. Bells tinkled here and there
in the galleries and fire control rooms,
as there are telephones everywhere, the
most complete system one could imag-
inc. There are also strung wires every
where. They seem to be in touch with
everything around the crater.
Suddenly there was a grunt of disgust
as an officer, peering through the tele-
scopes, discovered that the two targets
had come together and were hopelessly
tangled. The tug pulled and yanked
but the targets stuck and the anchored
one followed the loose one. Then an
aggravating delay of about two hours
followed. The tug finally backed uI
to the two targets and men went upon
the RATS and disentagled the hawsers

under the tugs stern. The stern slapped
up and down on the uneasy sea and th'
man was soused up and down as h,

scopes. Finally the targets were sepa
rated and the Navajo pointed off to
ward Koko Head
Then there we're signs of activity ev

MADRID, September 20.-What is
believed by many to be the actual COM

with the populace fighting troops from
behind street barricades and with the
people in the surrounding towns rising
against the authorities and marching
upon the capital to assist in fighting
for the republican party.
Last night the Commune was pro-

revolution are almost prohibitive, 126
per cent being asked.

PREFERENTIAL RIGHTS
ALL THRESHED OUT
Land Department Has Matter All
Ready-0nIy Matter Now of
Surveying the Land.

+. Schnack, of the public lands de-
partment, who has been going over
the applications for preferential rights
in the Kapiolani Estate Punchbowl
lands, has now concluded his work. He
reports that of the two hundred and
twenty-five applications, fully half of
them will be granted without much
trouble when the matter comes up be-
fore Land Commissioner C. S. Judd,
who is at present absent from Honolulu,
after the Kapiolani lease has run out,
in some ten months.
Mr.. Schnack says that as the result
of his work, there will be no necessity
for Governor Frear to send for wit
nesses, except in some special instances.
Land Commissioner Judd, according to
Mr.. Schnaek will take the matter up
as early as he possibly can, and go
right through with the applications
Any difficult cases will have to be set.
/ tied by Governor Frear
One of the chief difficulties will be
where an applicant can comply with
the law in every respect, but is barred
by the fact that he is not citizen
/ This will be got over IN many cases
| by allowing the children to make the
application. Another seeming hardship
is where the applicant is not citizen
and has no children to bridge the
trouble Perhaps this will be got ovel
by the government allowing the appli
eants to appoint trustees to handle the
matter.
1t viii take long time to get tn,
matter Strengthened out, is the opinion
of Mr.. SehnaekF But he feels certain
that everything will 90 pretty smooth h

used by the county officials should all
be equipped with speedometers and that
the readings of these should be taken
by the county clerk each day.
This was amended by Mcclellan to
the effect that the readings be taken
monthly, and was passed.
1t was the object of Low in this
matter to find out just how much each
machine was costing the county for its
operation and how much it was running
on after curfew and Sunday stinspec-

There was a rumor, also said Low.

FEAR FUNERAL WILL
START A MASSACRE

KlEv, Russia, September 2O.-The
funeral of the assassinated premier,
stolypin, will be held on Friday. It
has been arranged to make the funeral
a state affair, but unaecompanied with
any great display, lest the occasion be
taken advantage of for an attack upon
the Jews of the city.
The city and surrounding country is
seething with anti-Judaism and on
many sides the determination of the
Jews by the Black Hundred is being
preached.
Privy Councillor Kokovtseff. who has
been acting as minister of finance, is
said to have been chosen to succeed
Stolypin as premier and as minister Of
the interior. He was appointed to his
present office in 1906, on the same day
as the appointment of the assassinated
premier.
