TAKES
AN IMPORTANT STEP
Church Workers Decides to Invite
Men and Religion Movement
to Honolulu.

Members Of the Inter-church Fedora
ton have decided to start negotiations
with Fred b. Smith, of New York, lead
er of the Men and Religion Movement,
and Raymond Robins, social service ex-
pert, to have them stop here next Jan
uary on their trip around the world
on a religious campaign. This was au-
thorized at a meeting held at the Y
NJ. G. A. yesterday afternoon.
A. f. Larimer, acting secretary of
the Y. NJ. c. A., was instructed to send
a cablegram to Mr.. Smith stating that
the federation favored considering the
plan to have the workers visit Homo
lulu and carry on great religious
campaign in this city.
The action of the federation was in
response to message received from
Mr.. Smith some days ago stating that
the workers would come here if sIf
ficient backing by the local church peo
pie was given to the plan. Those who
are working on the arrangements to
bring them here hope that the condi-
tons under which Mr.. Smith Will ar
range to visit this city will be such
that the federation can accept.
If the workers come, one of the
greatest campaigns, ever inaugurated
here in the interest of religion will be
carried out.

Big Sum from Lots.

The three appraisers whose late re.
port occasioned all the recent hurry Of
the government were j. i. Cooke, c.
Hustace, Jr., and Joe Andrade. Their
estimates of the value of the land were
made without any consideration of the
Improvements which have been made
upon them by the Portuguese since they
occupied them. The residents will so be
able to purchase their lots at their
value at the time they first took up
occupation.
Almost $4,000 will be realized by
the government from the lots sold un.
der preference rights and at auction, If
the latter go at even the upset price.
This money win be used in public inn

by the present administration when the
Fuuchhow preference rights were set.
He'd, the appraisemcnt ON the Auwaio.
linn lots filed and the advertisements
for the sale Of the big tract perfected
Under direction Of Governor Frear
almost all departments for the govern
ment have been working on the Punch
bowl lot problem for two years. These
lots hav e figured in political battles
as well as personal ones and legislative
action has been taken on them, and in,
spite of the time which they have alto.
gether taken up it was at high pressure
that the offices of the attorney general
and land commissioner finally wound up
the job.
1t was necessary to advertise that
part of the Punchbowl lots on which no
preference rights were allowed in this
morning Is paper as the last day the law
allowed if the sale was TO come off on
August Is. On that day the lease which
the Kapiolani estate holds on the tract
terminates and it is the desire of the
government to transfer ii at once to
private ownership.
There are POI lots in all in the tract
and of these preference rights have
been allowed ON l6l. This means that
on that number the Portuguese who are
living and have made their homes and
gardens on them will be given the first
chance to buy them at the upset price.
The Others will be sold at auction.

Tremendous Work.

"The appraisements run from two
to twelve cents a foot, the difference
being due TO the fact that some lots
are rocky and covered with shale as
compared with other lots of all good
ground. The work Governor Frear has
done on this has been tremendous, lay
ing out new lots, new roads, adjusting
preference rights and negotiating ex,
changes in ownership where corners of
lots have been taken for roads.
The preference rights will net the
government 500, 567 63, while the land
sold at auction, if taken at the upset
price, will net $5l, 72193, making to.
tai of $l4s,29I.5G. SO much of this as
is needed will be taken for roads, for
laying sewers and water mains. Punch
bowl will become one of the model dis.
triets of the city.
One-hfth of this amount must be paid
down so the government gets $3.50, 900 mt
the start. The balance may be paid at
intervals Of one, two, three or four
years with six per cent. interest"

Caused Hot Battle.

1t was the Punchbowl lots which es.
tranged Governor Frear and Delegate
Kuhio originally and which caused the
hottest of legislative battles in the last
session. 1t was one of Governor Frear Is
chief ambitions that this big work
could be finished within his administers
tion. The work on it has been ire
mendous.
81 think the appraisements are very
fair, said Acting Governor Mott.
Smith, yesterday afternoon, "both
those on the preference right lots and
those that are TO be sold at auction.
] think this should be so. The fact
that Governor Frear inserted the pref.
erence right clause in the amendments
to the Organic Act made this whole ar
rangement possible. 1t is very crafty
ing that it has been finally brought to
a head.

DEFYING THE LAW.

Several weeks ago attention was
called to conditions existing on the
river front of Alexandria on Sundays.
Since the government has reclaimed
what was known as "Baptizing Cove"
arks have been anchored nearby from
which liquor is alleged to be dispen-
sed every Sunday, and drunken men,
mostly of the younger generation,
are seen in that locality every Sab
bath. Gasoline boats are said to be
employed in transporting patrons to
and from these floating dispensaries.
Yesterday evening, while people were
endeavoring to find relief from the
torrid wave young man apparently
in his teens was being carried from
that locality in helpless state of in
toXication.
1t seems strange that notwithstand-
ing the Byrd law, those of this city,
the District of Columbia and Mary
land, such open violations of the law
are tolerated. The reclaiming of
Baptizing Cove was hailed with de-
light by people living in the south
eastern section of the city, as the new
land affords a pleasant carousal for
old and young, and strollers can now
sit upon the channel banks and wit
ness the panorama of big and little
boats passing up and down the river
Should present conditions continue,
however, it will be a place to be
avoided.

OYSTER SEASON OPENS.

Today marks the commencement of
the oyster season which however will
not become active until after the
weather becomes cooler. While many
bivalves have in late years been
brought to Alexandria and Washing
ton in barrels on steamers, the great
bulk still come in sailing vessels.
The oyster trade of Alexandria has
ever been one of it's principal indus
tries, although during past years it
has not shown to the advantage it did
in ante-bellum days. In the olden
time what was known as the oyster
docks were situated between King and
Prince streets, and all the bivalves
were landed on wharves designated
for that purpose. They are now
landed at different wharves and by
both steam and sailing vessels.
Oysters are sent from Alexandria
to dealers in all parts of the interior
section of Virginia.
The prospects for the trade this fall
and winter are said to be extremely
good.

MORE TORRID WEATHER.
Oppressive Conditions Throughout
Yesterday and Last Night.

The temperature yesterday was as
trying as that of any day during the
summer now about to draw to close.
In the early part of the day 1t
was moderately warm, but in the
afternoon the light breezes which had
prevailed died out and the heat be-
came intense. AT the close of the
day no relief was in sight, and the
temperature throughout the night
rendered sleep difficult and in many
cases impossible. There was no
breeze to afford relief, and although
at night lightning flashed incessantly
in the northern heavens, no rain
came to the rescue.
Warm weather will prevail during
the next two or three days over the
Middle West and during the greater
part of the week in the Eastern and
Southern States.

tertainments give evidence of the eitl-
cient work done along both lines.
This year the faculty announces the
introduction of department for the
study of art, where under an expert
enced teacher and artist, lessons will
be given in china painting, water col
ors and oil with special attention to
the foundation principles of drawing
upon which all successful color work,
studies from life or landscape may
be built. Other special features that
show St. Mary's to be ever progress
i've will be the introduction of physical
culture, elocution and similar branch
es for the development of the aesthet-
ic faculty in the young girls soul;
thus combining the useful, the beau
tiful and intellectual and the religious
elements, the Sisters hope to make the
education given at st. Mary's second
to none in Virginia.
Over two hundred pupils were in
attendance during the past year; this
enrolment is a proof of the schools
efficiency and of the place it holds in
the estimation of our citizens. With
the added advantages it aims to offer
its patrons. there is no doubt the year
which begins tomorroy will show a
marked increase in the number of its
ambitious students.
