WATER METER SYSTEM
PLEASES Los ANGELES

In 1905 the daily amount of water
supplied to Kaimuki residents during
the month of November amounted 70
under one million gallons. In No
vember, 1911, over three million gal
Ions per day were used. The in
crease is expected to be just as great
during the next five years.
Regarding the meter system that it
is proposed to institute in this city,
the experience of Los Angeles, where
$4,000 meters are now in use, is in
teresting to read of.
Otto C. Whitaker, of the Los An
geles water department, is at present
in Honolulu, and this morning he had
a talk about water meters with the
chief of the department

Damn Hemenway was not present

one of the parties to the gathering.
The meeting was entirely informal,
and means nothing more than a few
of us wished to see how nearly our
ideas coincided. There was no inten-
ton to slight any one, and there is
nothing to prevent as many more
meetings being held as those who are
kicking desire.
There is absolutely no intention
of trying to force anything on the
meeting Friday night. There will be
nothing to prevent other nominations
being made. We took 1t for granted
that the sense of the precinct was
definitely learned at the meeting held
several weeks ago, whom II was de-

The next of the Mahuka site cases

Mr.. Breckons says he val combine

those of the Office Speciality Company

nearly as long as the flrsa one" said
Mr.. Breckons. THE way has been

Wedding Was Not
An EIopement

Lorrin K. Smith, a son of Hon. w.

daughter of Joseph G. Pratt, post
master of Honolulu, were married on
Maui yesterday.
There was talk about town this
morning as if the event was an elope-
ment. This proves to be not so. AL
though the news of the wedding came
to the respective parents of the con-
tracting parties Unexpectedly, from
what can be learned from friends Of
the families the event is not dis
pleasing.

However, it was not an elopement
in that there was no running away by
the loving couple. Both the groom
and the bride have been living on
Maui for some little time past. Young
Smith it is true not long ago came
home, but recently after a short stay

er of Fort Shafter.
There has been trouble of late be-
tween the Shafter men and a gang OF
natives and several outbreaks have
occurred on the street cars with the
result that the police were asked to
take the matter in hand.
On Sunday night, according to Ser
geant OFisher, he was returning to
camp by the last car. A little past
the Palama fire station Haili and two
privates boarded the car, the latter
sitting just in front of witness, while
the native remained on the running
board.
Hail and the soldiers in front had
a dispute and suddenly the former
swung from the car to the ground and
struck Fisher blow on the neck
while so doing.
The car was stopped and the de-
fendant was chased by the soldiers
and eventually caught by Motor Cycle
Officer Abreau who happened to be
close by.
Hail admitted having struck Fisher
though he stated that the latter did
not strike him. He hit him on gen.
eral principles just because he was a
soldier.

MANUFACTURING FAKE OPIUM
CHARGE AGAINST LUM CHEONG

The process of manufacturing sec

pipes was Interestingly described in
detail at a hearing before the United
States commissioner this morning,
the result of which was that the ac-
cused, Lum Cheong, was held under
bonds in the sum of $500, to answer
to the grand jury for the offense with
which he is charged.
According to the testimony of one
of the Chinese witnesses, old opium
pipes, impregnated with unconsumed
opium, are bought in large quanti-
ties. These are broken up and the
fragments boiled to extract the opium

FratGrniZG

Right Rev. Bishop Henry B. Res

church in Hawaii, accepted an invita-
ton to visit the Methodist Episcopal
church conference, and yesterday paid
his respects to the conference, accom-
panied by Rev. Leopold Kroll, one of
the diocese clergy. Both of the Wis
itors delivered very cordial and grace
full addresses of greeting to the sister
church.
Rev. John T. Gulick was also pres.
ent as an invited representative of
the Congregational church, likewise
offering fraternal greetings to the
Methodists.
Right Rev. James w. Bashford,
Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal
church in China, who presided at the
conference since his arrival on Sat
urday, responded most pleasantly to
the addresses of the three visiting
clergymen of the other denominations
mentioned.
After the speeches of fraternaliza-
tion the conference passed reso!u-
tions by which the visitations became
enshrined in the records of the con-
ference. A delightful hour was spent
in the fraternal ceremonies.

SHOCKING CASE
At LEPER STATION

Charles Morena. an under-keeper
at the Kalihi receiving station, will
answer, probably tomorrow, at hear
ing to be held at the station by the
United States commissioner, to an
extremely serious and disgusting
charge.
Morena is accused of being the
father of a child recently born at the
station to a girl held there as a leper
and who Is not his wife. So far as is
known, only one other case of like
nature is on record, A keeper at the
leper station in San Francisco was
tried some years ago and found
guilty of immoral conduct with one
of his hopelessly diseased charges.
The matter was first brought to the
attention of the Territorial authori-
tics, but so serious did they deem the
matter that they asked the Federal
to take it up. United
States District Attorney Breckons
consented and has made a thorough
of the matter, with the
aid Of the attorney general, the result
being that a formal charge has been
laid aPainst Morena and he will havA
to answer an accusation of the most
5hockingly disgusting conduct that
has ever disgraced the community.

The resulting liquid is then boiled
down to a certain consistency, when
it is mixed with yenshi and the com,
pound boiled again until it reaches
the viscious consistency of opium.
The result is generally sold at about
fifteen cents a smoke.
1t is charged that Lum Cheong has
been engaged in the manufacture Of
this second grade opium on quite a
large scale. The implements of ma
nufacture, together with the mate
rails, were introduced in evidence and
We're followed by some of the finished
product. The commissioner thought
the evidence sufficient to warrant
