FUNERAL Stops,
MOURNERS POSE,
CAMERA SNAPS

Stopping a funeral in order to pose
for group photograph is the latest
innovation in Honolulu. A Japanese
funeral procession which was slowly
winding up Nuuanu avenue toward the
cemetery, on Tuesday, was halted near
the bridge, where photographer was
in waiting, and the mourners, relatives
and attendants left the garages and
were arranged in proper Photographic
groups to face the camera.
The photographer with an artistic
eye for the proper arrangements,
stretched the line of mourners, relatives
and others from the c1rb toward the
hearse, the line and the carriages form

photographer took his station and
snapped the gathering.
But in order that no feature of the
procession should be missing the pho

moved from the carriages and placed

This innovation followed desire on
the part Of relatives of the dead per-

NO GOLD BEING
HOARDED AWAY
Treasurer Is Putting Coin Into
Circulation at a Very
Rapid Rate.

Before the end of the month the ter
ritorial treasury department win have
passed out in good coin over it's coun-
ters for the thirty-one days something
like hundred and sixty thousand dol
lars. A little more than half of this
amount will have been paid over to
the various counties as their share of
the taxes for 1910 remaining; the other
seventy-odd thousand will 20 for cur
rent bills, which are somewhat heavier
than usual.
This hundred and sixty thousand re-
duces to quite an extent the amount of
public gold in the various banks, the
demand for cash having compelled
Treasurer Conkling to go into the bank
vaults to keep enough in his own for
the demand.
The fact that the treasurer is draw
ing rather more freely than usual upon
the surplus deposited in the local banks
accounts for the street reports that the
loan money market is Tightening up,
so far as the banks go. 1t has been
stated that Treasurer Conkling is draw
ing the greater part of the Territory IS
surplus from the banks and boarding the
gold in the treasury vaultc, but this is
an error.
"The sea -city of money reported can
not very well be blamed on the treas
ury department, said Mr.. Conkling
yesterday, when told that he was cred
tied with having sack sful of gold lying
idle, with the street hungry for more
currency. GIVE are passing out the
money as fast as possible and getting

FAIR AUCTI0NEER
MAKES A RECORD
Knocked Down Kapaa Lot at
Figure Twelve Times More
Than Upset Price.

There is material for suffragette
argument in the report of sale of
one ofsthe Kappa TOWNSHIP lots, which
came from Kauai yesterday. The land
was auctioned off by member of the
weaker sex, who kept the crowd so
anxious to respond to her 'fWhat am
bid7 Make it half, half; going, GO
ing, are you all through" until the
upset price was multiplied twelve times
before the hammer fell and the final
"Gone" was spoken.
Miss Berniee Hundley was the auc-
tioneeress. She holds the position of
subland agent for Hawaiian as we'll as
that of teacher in the government
school, and in the former capacity
mounted the steps of the Kappa court
house On Saturday last and faced the
fifty or more men who had gathered
for the occasion. The parcel offered
was one of the best lots left unsold
in the new Kappa TOWNSHIP, having FIVE
rent-prOducing buildings on its twenty
thousand square feet. The advertised
upset price was 500 and there were
several at the sale who figured on buy.

that figure.
They estimated without the knowl-
edge of the auctioneeress, however, who
described the land SO well. in her open
ing remarks that the opening clatter

z. J.. Morgan. head carpenter of the
Kealia plantation.
G. B. Gray, proprietor of the Kapaa
Wine Company, saw the four hundred
and raised it to the half thousand,
The 'tsmall farmers" threw down
their hands and watched. while the
bidding went on, by tens and twenties,
until the wine merchant made it $3.50
and dared the carpenter to call. This
topped Morgan's limit and Gray got
the property.

madness, brought on by brooding and

Quaid yesterday took the stand in his
own defense in Judge coopeS's court
and reheaBed the whole sordid story
which ended in revolver duel in the
city's busiest street.
The prosecution rested its case early
yesterday morning, McQuaid being the
first witness in his own defense after
Attorney Douthitt had given an out
line of the defense to the jury. The
defendant almost collapsed several
times under ordeal of barring the
shame of his family and after break
ing down several times, the court ad-
iourned the trial at twelve clock un.
til this morning.
Driver came to Kona in 1906 when
McQuaid was the manager of the Kona
Development Company and the latter
not only gave him position as book
keeper 1nder him, but introduced him
into his own home, where be lived for
some time while better accommodations
were being constructed elsewhere.
Drivers intimacy with Mrs Nc
Quad commenced during that year al.
though it was not until the first Of
1910 that McQuaid learned Of it. When
he came to that part of his testimony
where he described his first discovery
of his wife unfaithfulness he could
not speak and had to answer with
signs.

Five-MiIe Flight Would Set
New Record.

KEY WEST, January 1e.--Prepara-
tions are being made here by Aviator
McCurdy and his staff of assistants to
fly from this city to Havana, Cuba,
distance, approximately, of one hum
dred and twenty-five miles, south by

McCurdy is confident that in mis- BIZ

distance, necessarily in one fight, un-
less he is blown out of his course to

sandy keys to make landing upon.
Faster Than Amy Tug.
The daring young aviator is negotiat-
ing with the proprietors of an ocean
going tug here to follow him across the
strait in case of some unforeseen acct
dent, but those experienced in flights
assert that the tug will have no chance
to keep up with the aeroplane if the
flight is successful one, even from
the start.
McCurdy says he will start next week,
as all arrangements win be ready by
that time, but the day itself has not
been decided upon, for it will depend
upon the state of the weather as to
when the start is made,
May Set New Record.
If McCurdy's effort is successful it
will set new record for lights over
any large body of water, especially be-
tween two countries. The English
Channel which has been crossed num-
Der of times, is only about one-third
the distance between here and Havana.
The last attempt made to cross the
channel was by the American aviator
Grace, who lost his life.

Kauai Japanese Threaten to
: Leave Unless Radical Meth
ODDS Are Adopted.
OAHU LABORERs sYMPATHlzE
Little Brown Brothers Threaten
and Steal and Highway Rob-
berry Is Common.

After several years of quietude upon
the part of the Japanese plantation
Iaborers, following the Oahuan strike
Cor higher wages, signs of unrest are
again appearing, this time chiefly on
Kauai, where the presence of Filipinos
is causing widespread agitation.
According to information received by
the Hawaii Shinpo, which is, least of
all, an agitating newspaper, the Kauai
laboTers are extremely wrought up and
have notified Several of the plantation
managers that they win no longer work
on the plantations where FilipinOs are
employed.
ALLEGED Labcrers,'
The little brown brothers are sar-
castically referred to as "alleged la
borers" in the Honolulu Japanese news
papers, and the japanese of this island
are also being aroused over the ques-
tion, extending their sympathy and en-.
enlargement to their brethren on the
northern island, who report several out
RACES perpetrated on them by Fill
pinOs.
Calling them ''loafers and highway
men," the Japanese are entering on a
consistent campaign against their Fill
Pine competitors. A number of the lat
ter have been 'ffired" from the lee
ward side of the island and the Lihue,
and neighbOring Japanese are rising in
protest, following several attacks made
upon them by the Filipinos.
Threatened with Death.
The Islanders have been entering the
houses of Japanese, threatening and
stealing, and highway robbery has be-
come common thing they assert.
Monday a Japanese named Nakamoto
was held up at the Hanamaulu planta-
ton, part of, the Lihue plantation, near
the Hhue hospital by three Filipinos
and robbed of fifteen dollars on a
threat of death, ugly Filipino triangu-
lar knives being held at his throat.
Tuesday ten Filipinos attacked a
Japanese named Nakamura from Kappa,
but thanks to a good horse he broke
away from them and escaped. 1t is
understood that several of the managers
are ascribing the trouble to liquor and
have warned the "saloons'' to stop
selling booze, notwithstanding the fact
that Kauai is supposed to be dry any
way.
Japanese papers report that it is dam
gerous for the japanese to go abroad
either day or night, alone and the Jap
anese themselves have issued mani
festo saying that unless radical meth
DDS are at once adopted with the Fill
pinOs, they viii leave all the planta-
TONS where they are employed.

Can Not Appoint.

The answers to these questions, which
have been fully prepared by the civil
service commission not only set
at rest any ideas Cottrill might have
of importing his own force, but also
put the quietus on several attempts to
get other local men into the deputy
ships. Under certain rulings, Carl
Wideman, who has already been offered
the first deputyship, is as much barred
as any man that COttrill could bring.
When the last first-class clerical ex-
aminations were held by the commits
sion, list of fourteen eligibles were
created, but only three of these ex-
pressed their willingness to take posi-
lions in the internal revenue office.
Lately all the balance have done so
and this full list must first be used up
by Cottrill, providing, in the first place
that he discharge amy of the present
staff for cause under the civil service

Civil Service Status.


The answer is as follows:
''The commission has the honor to
acknowledge receipt of your letter of
December 90, 1910, enclosing COM
munication addressed to you by Charles
r. Doll of Columbus, Ohio, in which
he submits list of questions relating
to first grade positions under the Col
lector of Internal Revenue of Hawaii.
In reply you are advised as follows:
First. Federal positions in the
Territory of Hawaii are filed in the
same manner as positions in the same
class in other localities outside of
Washington. Insular positions in Ha-
wall arc not qualified.
ESecOnd. This commission has a
local branch of the civil service at Ho-
lulu which conducts the examinations
which are held at Honolulu for all fed
eral positions in the classified competi-
tive service
"Third. The records show that an
examination was held at Honolulu No.
vember 10, 1910, to establish a register
for filling first grade and clerical posi-
tions in each branch of the federal
service in that city. AS a result of
that examination a register of fourteen
eligibles was established on November
81, 1910, and it appears that only three
of that number were willing to accept
appointment in the internal revenue
service. Tt further appears that one
OF that number has since been notified
for appointment;
