Relations Pleasant.


r. Give Davies testified that he had
been director of Theo. ii. Davies &
Co. since the death of his father, in
1898. Before that he was con-
fidential clerk in the firm, and he was
sure that he was thoroughly in touch
with what was going on. He said that
the relations of the Horners and his
father and the other members of the
Davies firm were most friendly. He
denied that his father had made any
efforts to get control of the plantation.
Wilmington, reading from the com.
plant in the case, asked if Davies and
company had made persistent, and I'M
fair attempts to obtain control of the
business, and after Thompson had got
through Directing and the question had
been fought over and revised, Davies
again replied in the negative.
"The only dealings were in response
to overtures from the other side,'' he
said. H. Hackfeld & CO., he added,
were acting as agents for Kukaiau mill
and J. M. Horner g. Sons.
Isenberg's Proposal.
Davies testified that in 1904 he met
Alexander Isenberg, in the Hackfeld
building, and that Isenberg spoke about
the Kukaiau plantation and mill and
wanted to know if Davies and company
were in a position to buy or sell inter
ests therein. He told Isenberg at that
time that his firm was prepared to con-
slider any offer.

SEWER AND TILE PLANT FORCED
TO SHUT DOWN - SOME
DEALERS OUT OF COAL.
DUNhAM COMPANY MAKING
STEAM OF 50 A TON FUEL
Practically All the Manufacturing
Plants Of the City Are Short of Fuel
or Have Only Limited Supplies
Schools Have Plenty to Last for Sew
era Days.

The coal situation has become more
acute during the last twenty-four
hours. With milder weather today, that
should make ii easier for the railroads
to handle more trains, there is a pros
rect that the situation will be some
what relieved during the next forty
eight hours. Much, however, depends
upon the weather.
One manufacturing plant was forced
10 shut down yesterday on account Of
not being able 70 obtain coal. Another
plant is operated on a patented fuel
at SO a ton. Practically all of the
others are short Of fuel or have only
limited supply on hand.
Some Dealers Out Of Coal.
Some OF tn. dealers are entirely out
of the common and cheaper grades of
soft coal. for which there is q con-
slant large demand. The supply Of
other dealers is SO short that they are
refusing orders except from their regu-
lar customers Practically all Of the
dealers have fuel of some kind, but in
most cases il is not the kind that is
in demand.
Comparatively little coal has been
delivered here by the railroad compan-
les during the last forty eight hours.
The supply that has been received has
been not nearly enough to supply the
! demand and the few cars that have
| been received have been snapped up as
soon as they reached here.

sheds.

TO IMPROVE POOL
Washington Park Swimming
Pool to Have New

Plans are on foot for the improve

slant drainage
When built, the bottom of the pool
was made lower than the street level
of the park. Consequently it has not
been possible to entirely drain il and
it has been found necessary at times
to bail out the water with buckets.
According to the contemplated plans,
a new concrete floor will be built in
and the side walls raised so that the
bottom of the pool will be higher than
the street level Of the surrounding land
and it can be perfectly drained.
No concession at the park has ever
paid as well as the swimming pool, with
the one exception of the baseball

ADJUSTMENTS.
TAYLOR Ar THE AIRDONE.

John Storm, Glory Quayle. Lord Rob
ert IRE and the other familiar charac-
tiers Of Hall Gaines Christian" were
presented TO the Airdome patrons
Monday night by the Albert Taylor
stock company, which has returned TO
FL Paso for an indefinite engagement
The summer theater was crowded TO
its capacity for the first performance
of the old time favorite play. 1t was
an Albert Taylor audience, for he was
applauded whenever he appeared and
when he made the curtain announce
ment preceding the last act, he was
people who had patrOnized his plays in
the past in FL PasO.
The Christian" always has an appeal
and as played by the Taylor stock
company. it pleased the big audience
Miss Maude Hollingsworth appeared in
the character of Glory, the leading
woman character of the play, and
shared the applause which was given
Mr.. Taylor. It is the old story of love
under difficulties, OF plotting men and
trusting women. but with a happy end
ing that does not always happen so in
real life. The character OF John Storm
the man who gives up splendid oppor-
tunities to do mission work in the
slums Of London is a strong one and is
consistent throughout It gave Mr..
Taylor a chance to use his big voice
to a good advantage and develop some
striking postures in the part of the
renowned clergyman The principals
were supported by a company of good
actors and the Taylor company prom
ises to be a pleasing summer diversion
at the cool, outdoor. theater.
The HollingswOrth twins appeared in
a singing and dancing specially be-
tween the acts, as did Miss Emily Will
son, in q ragtime rendering of The
Rag Time Violin"
The crowd last night was a record
breaker for the Airdome, numbering
1888 paid admissions, with only "a
people in the place on passes over 200
people were turned away.
