no trace of the general sentiment can
be found connected in any way with
Feb. ID. 1t is thought that the Gus
tom may have originated with the an
cient Romans who celebrated in the
month of February and at this time
put the names of young women in
box, from which they were drawn by
the men as chance directed" and the
christian clergy finding it difficult to
eliminate this pagan practice, gave it
religious aspect by substituting the
names of saints for those of the wom-
en-. This comes down to the present
day in the Roman Catholic religion,
where it is customary, more or less, to
pick out a patron saint who is termed
valentine for the year. One writer
says about this time of the year
the birds choose their mates, and
hence probably came the custom Of
the young men and maidens choosing
valentines or special loving friends on
that day"

LARGEST SUGAR
MILL YET BUILT

The largest mill yet constructed for
the crushing of sugar cane has just
been completed by a firm at Govan,
Scotland. 1t can deal with 1900 tons
of cane daily, and has been built to
the order of a German firm for work
in Argentina. Altogether the plant
weighs about 100 tons. 1t consists of
IA rollers in the form of a combina-
lions of four three-roller mills pre-
ceded by pair of preparatory crusher
rollers. All are connected by gear
ing, driven by two horizontal steam
engines. The preparatory rollers are
each three feet in diameter and seven
feet in length, and have deep circum-
frential and diagonal grooves.
The mill proper consists of four
three-roler mills, with rollers forty
inches in diameter and seven feet in
length. The top rollers are fitted with
hydraulic appliances at both ends, the
rams being fifteen inches in diameter
and having a working pressure of Ia
tons per square inch. The cane car
rier for feeding the mill is 200 feet
in length, and is driven by twin
cylinder engine through triple gear
ing. The speed OF the rollers is from
20 to 26 feet per minute. The power
for driving the fun plant is obtained
fram two single cylinder, non-conden-
sing steam engines. These have cy-
finders 32 inches i'm diameter and 60
inch stroke, and they are designed for
working pressure Of 12O pounds to
the square inch,

TWO ADDITIONAL
OCEANIC BOATS

The determination of the Oceanic
Steamship Company to purchase two
more boats will no doubt be carried
out shortly. This will mean probably
that one will come on the Honolulu
San Francisco route vice the Sierra,
and the other go on the San Francis.

little, old Mariposa,
1t has already been announced In
these columns that the service be.
tween San Francisco and Sydney, via
Honolulu, Page Page and Auckland,
will be resumed this year by the So.
mona, Ventura and Sierra. The work
of bringing the Sonoma and Ventura
up-to-date has been in hand for long
time now, and should be completed
at an early date At least one of the
boats will be ready for commission
soon. This will in all probability be
the Sonoma, and she will come on the
Honolulu-San Francisco Service, vice
the Sierra. The Idea is to test thor
oughly the alterations and the new
oll-burning apparatus on the Sonoma.
While she is running her trial trips,
the Sierra will go into dock and be
made just as up-to-date as the other
two.
With the resumption of the AUS
tralian service, the local boat will be
lost to Honolulu, but not likely for
long. It is regarded as certain that
the Sierra will be succeeded by an
other boat of her own class, if not
better,
In this way Honolulu will get even
better service, for there will be a
three-weekly service to and from Aus
tralia and San Francisco, and the
Sierra will have successor that will
give an additional mail and passenger

FIRST WEEK OF NEW YEAR
VERY BRISK ON THE EXCHANGE

With almost every stock on the list
going up rapidly from day to day and
prices at the weeks end generally
much higher than at the beginning Of
the week, the year 1912 starts off with
the briskest trading that has been wit
messed in stocks and bonds for months,
and that is particularly astonishing in
view of the fact that slump is gen.
orally looked for the week following
the holidays.
No less than 6804 shares of various
stocks changed hands during the week,
the aggregate price paid for them be-
ing $23S, 703121a. Both in the number
Of shares sold and in the total amount
paid for them the past week has been
far ahead of any week for months.
Oahu was the strongest seller of the
week, total of 2249 shares changing
hands for an aggregate of $SO,6S1.25.
This stock advanced from 80 to So
during the week.
Waialua and Hawaiian Commercial
were both strong and in demand and
both made material advances during
the week, Waialua selling up to 1923.
Prospects seem particularly good for
continued brisk trading, while most Of
the brokers are predicting still higher
prices than those now being obtained.
The following is a summary of the
trading in stocks and bonds during
the past week;

HON. CON. GAS
FOR Los ANGELES

SAN FRANCISCO, December 90
The Midway Gas Company, which re-
Gently gave a deed of trust to the
Mercantile Trust Company of San
Francisco to all it's interests in sew
eral section of land belonging to the
Honolulu Consolidated Oil Company
and located in the Buena Vista hills
region of the Midway district, appears
to have been organized for the pur-
pose of piping natural gas to some
city outside of the oil regions, pre-.
sumably to Los Angeles. The prop
erty which it has pledged for $1,000
000 presumably to secure the payment
of bonds. consists in a contract with
the Honolulu Consolidated to furnish
it with gas.
According TO the best information
obtainable, the Honolulu Consolidated
contracted some time ago, to deliver
25,OOO,OQO feet of gas a day for a pc
Rod of ten years, at FIVE cents per
thousand feet, and binding itself to
supply artificial gas in the event that
the natural gas supply failed. The
original plan was to pipe the gas to
Los Angeles and, according to the in.
formation, survey for the pipe line
was made and accepted. -.
1t is believed that the Midway Gas
Company is based on this contract
The moving spirits in this corporation
appear to be Mr. Deuffel of the Santa
Clara Sash & Blind Company, who
owns one-half interest in the Gilroy
Gas Works, L. p. Lowe of San Fran
cisco, who owns the Economic Gas
Company of Los Angeles and Johr
Martin, who is closely associated witt
/ the Honolulu crowd.

route was taken to the Philippines,

ish Burmah and several of the great
cities of India, then coming home as
he went by the Pacific route.

impossible to particularize. For one
thing met very hot weather.

the actual shooting,
Wives Will Remain.
With the canceling of the original
orders began activity in another di-
rection, for the reservations made by
nearly all the wives of the officers
in the Mongolia had to be Cancelled.
So certain were some of the officers
that the boats would leave this morn
ing, that they paid out for the berths
instead of merely reserving them.
Captain Berger Was on Hand.
Captain Berger had had no official
intimation that the fleet would not
leave, so he was down on the Califor-
MIA this morning to see whether it
were true or not. He found that it
was true, and then joined in the gen
eral delight at the delay in sailing.
