then on their way to Key West The
pursuing steamer was much large
than the Eagle, but with his usual i'm
petuosity an impetuosity that seems
to have marked most American naval
commanders In this war Sutherland
put out after it.
The stranger promptly hauled
around and stood off to the northwest
and an hour later ran on the shoals
of Piedras Point. A sidewheef river
steamer came Off from the shore and
attempted to assist the stranded craft,
but left after taking off her crew,
when she saw that the Eagle meant
business and was coming in close
enough to use her guns. Switzerland
noticed that the stranded vessel
mounted two big guns forward, bigger
guns than any he carried, and he
opened fire on her as precautionary
measure sending prize crew to board
her. This prize crew discovered her
to be the Spanish armed steamship,
Santo Domingo, mounting two 4.72-
inch guns, and crammed to her guard
rails with munitions of war, clothing
and provisions for the Spanish army.
In her hold were two 12-inch guns,
evidently for use by the Spaniards
in Cuba
The contents of the vessel, after a
hasty inventory, was valued at $1,000
600, making her one of the most valu- I
able prizes OF the war; but as there
was no way of hauling her off the
coral reef upon which she had ground /
ed, and as Sutherland was afraid
some armed force he. could not resist
might appear and attempt to salye
her, he vas regretfully obliged to set
fire to her. She burned for a week
afterwards, and the wreck of her varied
cargo carried over the sea for miles.

RESTORE GRAY HAIR
TO NATURAL COLOR
By Common Garden Sage a Simple
Remedy for Dandruff, Falling,
Faded, Gray Hair.

The old idea of using Sage for
darkening the hair is again coming
in vogue. Our grandmothers had
dark, glossy hair at seventy-fve,
while our mothers are gray before
they are fifty Our grandmothers
kept their hair soft and glossy with
a "Sage Tea," which also restored
the natural color. - i -:
One objection to using such pre-
paration was the trouble Of making
it. This objection has been over
come by the Wyeth Chemical Com
pany of New York, who has placed
on the market a superior prepare
ton of Sage, combined with Sulphur
and other valuable remedies for dan
druff, itching scalp, and thin, weak,
falling hair. ..
The beauty of the hair depends
more on its rich, even shading than
anything else. Don't have dry, harsh
faded hair, when a simple, harmless
remedy will bring back the color in
few days; and don't be torment
ed with dandrutf, itching scalp and
loose, falling hairs. Wyeth's Sui
phur Sage and Hair Remedy will
quickly correct these troubles. and
give color, strength and beauty to
your hair.

SUPERVISORS Want CHANGES
MADE in DANCE-HALL BILL

NJ. Picanco presented a claim for
$S42.50 extra on his Nuuanu road con-
tract, owing to the use of asphalt in
stead of 95 per cent oil at the request
Of the city and county engineer. 1t
was referred to the road committee
and the engineer.
An invitation was received from
the League of American Municipalities
for delegates from Honolulu to it's
10th annual convention in Buffalo, r.
Y, Sept. IS, 10 and 20.
On a resolution coming up for $500
for a road in Manoa, together with
other items for that section, it was
voted, on motion Of Mcclellan, that a
caucus of members be held on the sub
iect on Thursday evening. A deputa-
ton from Manoa consisting of G. G.
Guild, S. De Freest and j. Biddle was
present.
On the recommendation of Road
Supervisor Caldwell, countersigned by
Engineer Whitehouse. the salaries Of
Raymond Duvauchelle and H. K. Ala
pal Of the road department were rails
ed to $50 month, on account of faith
full services and longer hours.
Supervisor Mcclellan orally report
ed on the Waipahu school, submitting
a suggestion of Building Inspector
Miehlstein that a temporary building
to cost about $500 be erected to re-
lieve the overcrowding. It was refer
red to the Thursday night caucus.
There was long conversation
about Broad lane improvement, from
which it appeared that the subject had
been lost in the hands of the was
and means committee, to which it was
referred many weeks ago after the
road committee had reported on it,
Chairman Low of the ways and means
Mcclellan brought the matter up now,
complaining that the chairman never
consulted the other members on mat
tiers referred to that committee.
F. ]. Dntra and William Isaacs. in
terested in property there, declared
their willingness to stand assesc> nts
for betterments. Mr. Dutra, referring
tc a statement. made about proceed
ings in the court of land registration,
said he knew nothing them.
Mr.. Milverton replied that the rec
ords of the court Of land registration
showed that a citation was served on
Mr.. Dutra by registered letter.
Finally the matter was referred to a
special committee consisting Of
Dwight Murray and Mcclellan, to act
with the attorney and engineer.
Resolutions we're introduced appro-
priating $4,000 for repairs to steam
rollers and $4,000 for road oiling.
Adjournment was taken to Friday
evening next, when a report from the
caucus will be due.

PALAMA SETTLEMENT COT
TAGES NEAR COMPLETION

The cottages being erected by the
Palama Settlement on Hotel street in
the rear of the Castle Home are rap
idly nearing completion, three being
nearly ready for occupation. ThN
funds to erect these cottages were do
mated by people Of Honolulu who are
interested in the work of the settle
ment
The cottages are two stories and will
accommodate two families. They con-
sist of two rooms and a lanai each
and an outside staircase will afford
entrance to the upper story.
Two purposes are in view for the
erection of the cottages, one being to
help along the movement to abolish
tenements and the other to encourage
the people who occupy the tenements
to live in a more Clearly manner.
Families who are in need of better
place in which to live may occupy
these cottages as long as they comply
with the rules which have been made
by the settlement for the tenants.

tall and commanding, with excellent
voice and hearty way of speaking
that pleased his large and attentive
congregation. Sunday was certainly
a very happy day for the new pastor
and his wife and the Paia people. For
many months the parish has been
looking forward eXpectantly to the ar
rival of Mr. and Mrs. Bowdish, who
accepted the work on Maui by cable
some months ago. The new corners
have known many people who had ac
quaintances or friends here on the IS
lands, so they too have been looking
forward with glad anticipations to We
work here.
Mr.. Bowdish has had three parishes,
and has been highly successful as
preacher and pastor in each of them.
He was ordained in the year 1901, and
for the last few years previous to his
taking up further study in Hartford
was pastor of the fiourishing church in
Mitchell, South Dakota. This is a
thriving city in that new state, and
tried it's lest to become the capitol
when the people merged from being a
territory into one of the States of the
Union. Mitchell is a University town
and has great influence in the west.

This delightful parish Mr.. Bowdish
left two years ago to take up further
study in the East. He had received
bis degree of Master Of Arts at Yank-
ton College, in 1897, and his degree of
Bachelor of Divinity from Chicago in
1901. Like a great many other men,
who have had few years in teaching
or in pastoral work, he desired to
carry on his studies, and do further
work leading to another degree. This
is the course pursued by large num-
Der of the most progressive men in
the states, when they can get time for
further work in institutions of the
high rank. So Mr. Bowdish turned his
attention to hartford Theological Sem
mary, which is one of the leading in
situations of America. Here he work
ed under the Seminary's most prom~i.
ent men, who rank high in the theoeo-
gical world. In June Of this y41r he
won his third degree-that of Master
OF Sacred Theology-a degree that Is
regarded with great esteem in all the
European universities. The thesis was
"Gilmpses of Personality as Seen in
Some of Jesus Typical Interviews. >
