capslzed in Harbor.
HILO, April 24-Three or four
young men of this city had a narrow
escape from drowning yesterday aft
ernoon, and only the fact that the
Wilhelmina was in the harbor, and
launches were continually running
back and forth between the Matson
steamer and the shore, prevented loss
of life. Young Canario and two or
three companions were taking advan-
tage of the fine WIND that was blow
ing to do a little yachting, when they
were suddenly struck by a heavy
squat which overturned the boat and
threw ali the members of the party
into the water. One of the local
launches was but a few feet away,
however, and was quickly at hand
and effected a rescue.
General Notes.
+ Mr.. and Mrs. Gus E. Schaefer of
Honolulu were among the Wilhelmina
passengers for Hilo. They brought
their automobile with them and after
stopping for several days at the Vol
cano House went on TO Mahukona o
stay with the Elgins, Mrs. Elgin be-
ing a sister of Mr. Schaefer.
A. f. Knudsen of Kauai was a Wis
itor to Hilo by the Wilhelmina, bring
ing with him Mr.. Roy Lippincott, an
architect from the East, who is greatly
interested in Hawaiian woods for in
terror finishing. They paid a visit to
Pahoa and also had practical exhi-
bition of both koa and ohia in the
office finishings of Hackfeld & Co.,
which they admired very much.
On Thursday last a Japanese fell
over the pail at the Ookala landing,
a distance of two hundred feet. He
was badly bruised but no bones were
broken, and he is in fair way to re-
cover On the same day Porto Rican
got his hand entangled in the ma
chinery of Papaaloa mill and had it
badly crushed.

like expressions which come in handy
in the hurrying along Of a job.
It is expected that the tunnel will
be completed by the first week OF
October as at the present time about
one hundred and seventy feet on the
south end and one hundred feet on
the north end has been finished. The
entire tunnel will be 1850 feet in
length when completed and inside
the timber will be fifteen feet wide
and twenty-one feet high, though two
feet more is allowed for timbering.
The Enterprise brought in large
amount of machinery which will
mean much more rapid progress than
has been going on in the past. It is
expected that six machine drills will
be kept steadily at work on each end,
the power in one case being supplied
by gasoline engine and in the other
case from water power obtained by
means of a Pelton wheel. The drills,
engine, Pelton Wheel compressors,
etc, came by the Enterprise on Sun
day. In order to get them to the
scene of the work they must all be
! lowered down the side of the cliff to
the tunnel entrance, which will be no
slight job in itself The entrance on
one side is about eighty-fve feet from
the top of the cliff and at the other
end about forty feet down.
Mr.. Aston states that the tunnel is
being driven through solid lava rock
all the way, and for about one-third
I OF the way this rock is very hard. It
lis in stratas, but when blown out by
the giant powder comes in big chunks
weighing from 500 pounds down, and
which must be broken up again be-
fore they can be handled conven-
iently.
AS the tunnel goes in, the air nat
urally becomes more and more foul
and fan blower, which drives the
air in through a twelve-inch pipe is
used to overcome this. When the
tunnel is completed it will have only
natural draught or ventilation. 1t
will be the longest tunnel Of it's kind
in the Territory and will bring the
level of the railroad down consider
ably where the gulch is crossed. This
will be done by steel bridge, which
will be considerable of a structure
itself. being one hundred and seventy
three feet high and one thousand feet
in length
New Telephone Building.
HILO, April 24.-The Hilo and Ha-
waii Telephone Company has pur-
chased a lot of land in a central loca-
ton in this city upon which they will
soon start the erection of a building
to take the place Of the present struc-
ture, which is Jointly occupied by that
concern and the public land office.
The property on which this is located
has recently been set aside by proc
lamation of Governor Frear for fire
station purposes and the telephone
company, which has long been look
ing for suitable location, will be
soon forced to move.
Anticipating this, the telephone
company has purchased the lot Of
land on King street mauka of the
Elks' Club, which belonged to c. c.
Kennedy, for the sum of $4,000. The
lot is ninety by sixty feet in size, but
ten feet of the width will be taken up
by an alleyway to connect with a
number of small cottages which are
located in the rear. The telephone
company proposes to erect a two-story
frame building and will use the upper
story for its operating room and offices

tryward. McQuade dictated few let
tiers, one of which he directed to be sent
by messenger. Then he left the Office
and called upon the editor of the Times.
This conference lasted an hour. Nc
Quade was chief owner Of the Times.
WARRINGTON was greatly surprised
when, at $3.50, O message was brought
to him requesting him briefly and po-
litely to do Mr. McQuade the honor to
call on him between and 5 that after
noon He had met McQuade at the
Chamber of Commerce dinner The in
tr auction had been most formal. What
the deuce did McQuade wish to see him
about? Should he go? A natural aver
sion to the man said no; but policy
urged him as well as curiosity. He
went to the telephone and called up Nc
Quade's office. Mr.. McQuade was not
in, but would return at 4. All! 1t was
the typewriter who spoke. Would she
kindly notify Mr.. McQuade on his re-
turn that Mr.. Warrington would be at
his office at 4:30? She would. Thanks.
Warrington smoked uneasily. He had
no desire TO meet McQuade. Their ways
were widely separated and reached
nothing in common. But he readily
recognized the fact that McQuade was
not q man such as one might heedlessly
antagonize,. What could the politician
want of the literary man? McQuade
dabbled in racing horses; perhaps he
had horse to sell. In that event. they
would meet on common ground. But
his belief in this possibility was only
half hearted. He filled his pockets with
cigars, whistled for dog, and de-
parted Both of the Remington houses
were closed; the two families were up
north in the woods.
Promptly at 4: 80 Warrington and his
dog entered the elevator of the Nc
Quade building and were dislodged on
the third floor They went along the
dim corridor, scrutinizing doors, each
hunting for one Of his kind. Jove
couldn't read, but he could smell. Fin
ally Warrington came to a stand. Upon
the glass panel of the door he read:

their owners drew closer round the

The door opened noisily, letting in a
blast of the storm raging outside, and
in its wake followed Rufe Blevins, a

A woman tells how coffee kept her
rom insuring her life:
Il suffered for many years chiefly
from trouble with my heart, with
severe nervous headaches and neu-
ralgia; but although incapacitated
at times for my housework, l did not
realize the gravity OF my condition till
I was rejected for life insurance, be-
cause. the examining physician said,
my heart was SO bad he could not pass
me.
This distressed me very much, as
was widow and had child de-
pendent upon me. 1t was to protect
her future that l wanted to insure
my life.
Fortunately for me, l happened to
read an advertisement containing a
testimonial from man who had been
affected In the same way that was
with heart trouble, and who was bene-
fted by leaving off coffee and using
Postum. / grasped at the hope this
held out, and made the change at
once
"My health began TO improve imme-
uiately. The headaches and neuralgia
disappeared, gained in flesh, and my
appetite came back to me. Greatest
of all, MY heart was strengthened
from the beginning, and soon all tie
distressing symptoms passed away. No
more waking up in the night with my
heart trying to fly out of my mouth!
Then ] again made application for
life insurance, and had no trouble in
passing the medical exa .niration.
