big OPPORTUNITY FOR HAWAII
IN EXHIBITING AMERICA" SHOW

Hawaii has just been offered one OF
thoie rare opportunities of getting
something worth while, for nothing
or next to nothing, and it isn't gold
brick, either Secretary Wood, of the
Promotion Committe. is grieving that
he will be unable to take full advant-
age of the golden opportunity, but
hopes to next year-for this remark
able opportunity is to be offered once
a year However, Hawaii will be on
deck to a limited extent this year.
The project in question is big ad-
vertising exhibit to be given in New
York City during the months of July
and August, under the direction Of the
Hotel and Business Mems League, inc,
of Greater New York. 1t is to be
known as Exhibiting America and
will consist of advertising floats ar.
ranged in q big pageant daily, and
afterward exhibited in permanent
place. But the unique feature of the
plan is that the exhibitors will not be
charged a cent for the, privilege ac-
corded them, nor will the sightseers
be asked to pay. The only cost to the
advertisers will be the preparation and
maintenance of their exhibit.
The whole cost of the undertaking
is to be borne by the business men
of New York City, who believe that
they will be we'll repaid for the outlay
by the business which will be brought
to the city, during the time of the
big show, as well as by a lot of per.

will be turned into New York channels

STANPEDES CREW
WITH EMPTY GUN

Especial Correspondence of the Starr
HILO, May 1S.-There was live
ly rumpus down on board the ship
John Ena, last Wednesday night, and
for a time it seemed as if there would
be bloodshed before wild and wcolly
"Bosun" Erickson was subdued, and
convinced that there was really no
reason for his attempt to shoot up
the vessel. Erickson was taken in
charge by the captain and then hand
ed over to police officer, who con
veyed his prisoner to the police sn.
ton.
1t appears that the 'Bosun got
full to overlooking and, going down
on board the vessel at a late hour,
announced his intention of wiping
out sundry members of the crew. He
carried a revolver and in short
time had the rest of the men hurry
ing for hiding places.
Captain Olsen, however, tackled
Erickson, and managed to get the
gun from him Then the discovery
was made that the weapon was not
loaded. This simplifed matters when
the warrior was tried at the police
court on Friday, and he was only
fined $25 for assault and battery. On
another charge of being drunk Erick-
son had to dig up six dollars.
Judging from the marks on Erick-
sons face, he got something of a
licking from someone. He bears
scars that look as if all the fight was
not made by him.
The "Bosun's" friends attended
court on Friday and they helped him
out of his difficulty as much as pos
sible.

IS ORIENT COMPANY NOW
PLANNING CANAL ROUTE?

The possibility of establishing
steamship lines between London and
Australia via the Panama Canal has
been the subject of much discussion
in the Australian papers. 1t has al
ready been stated in the Star that the
Peninsular and Oriental company and
the Canadian Pacific Railway company
have made tentative offers to the
Canadian-Australan line to buy them
out. and now it is further understood
that the Orient Steam Navigation com
pany, the great competitor of the p. &

matter of establishing line.
Further credence is given to this by
the fact that Sir Kenneth Anderson,
