SAYS IT WAS 80
MILES AN HOUR

ct has become the custom of
chauffeurs to use Kapiolani street as
tryingout course for machines"
said e. NJ Cheatham in the police
court this morning, in testifying in
support of charge of needless driv-
ing preferred against Eric Gay. Gay
was not In court, but he was repre-
sented by Attorney Charlie Chilling
worth, and the evidence of Cheatham,
who was the complaining witness, was
taken in his absence.
Cheatham lives on Kapiolani street
between Kinau and Lunalilo, and on
Thursday last, while on the verandah
of his residence, he heard very VIC
lent and continuous footing of an au-
tomobile horn. He looked towards
Thomas square and saw a large car
proceeding up the street at very
fast pace. Pulling out his watch
Cheatham timed the car from Kinau
street to Prospect street, a distance
he afterwards accertained to be 1900
feet, and this distance was covered
in thirty seconds. There were no other
vehicles on the street at the time as
far as Cheatham remembered. He
remarked that the practice of trying.

SENATOR JUDD have just told
Mr.. Ray Stannard Baker, the rmaga-

J. A. McCANDLESS-Two Shriners
tell me that the only public festivals
to equal our floral parade are the an
nual ones at Nice and Pasadena. The
Mardi Grass at New Orleans isn't in
the same class.
SHERIFF w. p. JARRETT The
festivities in connection with the
Shriners' pilgrimage, the Elks' carniv-
al and Washington's Birthday, passed
off admirably from a police point Of
view. The crowds were large but or
derby. In fact, it was as quiet a hol.
iday as we have ever had.
ALEXANDER HUME Ford
am trying to get up a movement to
have the four Wall brothers take
charge of the next Floral Parade. and
IL they do ! will guarantee twelve
grass houses. That one that took a
prize Yesterday cost only $25 1t shows
the malihinis just what they want to
see-the poi pounding and that sort
of thing, the old Hawaiian life to
gether with Oriental features. Take
care Of the tourists here and you will
not need to do any advertising. That
is what Australia and New Zealand
are doing, and get the business.

C. w. AUTOMATICALLY the
most unenterprising concern in this
territory is the Bishop estate In
stance its neglect for many years of
is city properties, consisting of the
lore, at Palace square; Bishop Park,
opposite the Young hotel; and the
park grounds at Nuuanu avenue and
Pauoa road, all of which were long
left as public eyesores, until by pri
son labor and priva;e subscriptions,
they were cleared and beautified And
now ! note that one of the large and
beautiful bougainvilia vines, the one
nearest King street, in Bishop Park,
having been torn from it's mornings
by the late storm, has been left to
wither and look generally seedy, by
the "enterprising" management of the
estate. A much longer indictment of
It's niggardly policy concerning it's out

ELKS' SUCCESS

The Elks' carnival committee has.
not yet figured out the results of it's
