JACK LONDON
may COME TO
HAWAII AGAIN
Writer of Red Handed Tales
After New Series of Island
Stories
SAILS AROUND HORN
IN GOOD SHIP ARYAN
Not Permitted to Use Captain
or Crew as Copy, His Type
writer's Useless

Unless all signs and p--4~----Z fail,
Honolulu will in the near furure have
another visitation in the form of Jack
London, the Socialist and author who
writes red-handed stories. According
to reports from the mainland. London
is meditating another visit to Honolulu
irr search of what he is pleased to
style local color" to be used in a new
series of stories dealing with the Ha-
waiian Islands.
Following a battle with a husky bar
tender i'm Eureka, Cal, in which Lon
don again proved that he is a good
fighter but poor matchmaker, the
author early in the year departed for
Baltimore, announcing that there he
would ship around the Horn in a sail
ing vessel and return tarry handed,
brawny seaman ready to give the
aforesaid bartender a fight for his life.
Accompanied by his wife and a Jap
anese valet, London reached Baltimore
and succeeded in signing on the good
ship Aryan as third mate, with the
privilege of drawing a wage of $35 a
month. Mrs. London was signed as
stewardess at $25 month and the
valet became one of the crew.
As a part OF his sealnan,s rluHnage
London carried three typewriters and
bale of copy paper, announcing that
en- route he would use the captain and
crew as subjects for a series Of sea
stories But the captain, a canny
Scotchman named MaclachIan, it seems
refused to be featured as another Sea
Wolf" and the crew following the
shippers lead, passed London round
robin to the effect that you'd better
not put nothing about US in any of
them items you write for the papers"
and the end was that Author London
found himself much too busy to write.
London announced when the Aryan
sailed that he would come on to Ho-'
nolulu with the vessel, which, after
delivering a cargo of coal at Seattle,
was slated to come here and load with
sugar Recent advices Indicate that
the Aryan will load with, lumber at
Sound ports instead of making Homo
lulu, and it is supposed that London
will complete his journey here on a
The Aryan was last reported unload
ing at Seattle after a voyage of 143
days duration. and it is supposed that
London, with his fund of suppressed
sea Information, will arrive here
shortly.

When the property is finally ready
to place on>the market Mr. Taylor will
include building restriction on every
bill of sale so that no houses of less
than $4,000 value will be erected on
any of the lots. This will assure a
character of residences in keeping
with the high standards that now pre-
vail in upper Nuuanu.
This tract has advantages superior
20 anything that can be offered in
Nuuanu on account of every lot being
in the near vicinity to the Nuuanu
park. and many of them adjoin this
lark which will one day in the near
future be developed into one of the
beauty spots of the city. A large
number of the lots offer magnificent
marine view, and are located to get
the cool breezeS of the valley
Proximity to town is also factor
that will increase the popularity of
this section. The most remote lot is
ten minutes from the center of town
by the Nuuanu car line. The family
establishing a home here has all the
advantages of scenic surroundings,
good company, pure air and in easy
reach of town.
The tract will be placed in the
lands of Pratt, the Land Man, for
final SALE Those interested may gain
more information by inquiring of Mr..
Jas. T. Taylor, or of Mr.. Pratt when
he returns from the Coast the first
of August.

absolutely nothing doing on btu
hthic." This phrase sums up the re
ply the Eoard of Supervisors will re
ceive to its latest proposal on the paw
ing question, transmitted to the Ho
nolulu Rapid Transit & Land Com
pany This proposal framed by the
Supervisors last night is to the effect
that the Transit Company may use
lava or wood blocks between the rails
and upon the one foot outside border
of the track, but must lay bitulithiC
pavement between the tracks where
the line is double-tracked and the
street on either side has been, or will
be paved with that material.
"The position of the company is de-
cidedly that it will not consent to any
proposal requiring it to use a patent
ed material for paving" said ID. l.
Wilmington, one of the leading attor
neys for the Rapid Transit Company,
in reply to question this morning
This applies to the area between
the tracks on King street, as we'll as
to the space between the rails and
alongside them on the outside" Mr.
wilmington continued.
.'We most efnphatically object to a
material of which a patent is held by
others and which we must buy from
the holders of the patent whenever it
is necessary to make repairs as well
as for original construction. The com.
pany has offered the Supervisors to
lay good pavement wherever they
do paving along its routes, but will
not submit to being held up for paw
ing material that can only be obtain
ed from another corporation.
May End Negotiations.
The Board of Supervisors have met
The Rapid Transit Company more than
half way in the matter of arriving at
some amicable settlement of the paw
ing proposition, and if they refuse to
conform to the ideas as set forth in
the series of resolutions or recon-
nendations offered at the meeting of
the board, last night, it is possible
that the whole matter Will again be
thrown into the air." was the gist Of
comment from Chairman pro TEN
Eben Low, when asked about the ul-
timatum from the Transit Company
I'VE have made every concession to
the street railway company. They
are compelled under the existing ses-
sion laws to lay pavement to con-

ChiIIingWorth to Show Scenes
from History During Mid
Winter Carnival

Determined to have the forthcoming
Mid Winter Flower Parade and Carni-
val something entirely unique and
original. with features which will
bring the Hawaiian Islands before the
eyes of the world, Senator Charles
Chillingworth, the new director gen.
eral, has started work on his compre-
hensive plans.
In order to get something different
something which no city on the
mainland can offer, he is considering
series of pageants representing
scenes from early Hawaiian history,
which,. if properly staged, he believes
will cast a shade over the far-famed
New Orleans Mardi Gras and force
the Kansas City Priests of Pallas to
plunge into the river kaw.
Zone of the big things | have in
mind as a part - the pageant" said
ChillingwOrth, is scene represent
ing the landing of King Kamehameha
on Oahu. l have learned that can
get fleet of anywhere from so to 100
canoes and best of all / expect to Sc
cure to head the fleet the great war
canoe which has come down from the
time of the Kamehamehas and which
has been preserved in good condition
and is entirely seaworthy.
II expect to stage this pageant at
night and the warriors will land by
the light of torches made from the
kukui nut as in ancient times.
There are a number of other like
pageants which / have in mind and
which I am sure can be arranged for
without trouble.
MY idea is to give the people here

I politicians control the convention and
then say TO them, Unless you nomi-
nate good, responsible men we will not
put up a cent for campaign expenses
| The risk of this, he declared, was. thai
there might not be any good men put
up and that the voters would have tc
vote for incompetent men. The alter
native he said. is to get into action
can be submitted to the voters.
| He cited the large sums of money
that have been spent in the past cam
paigns and that little was accomplish
ed toward getting the best men into
Office. He said that it is difficult to
get successful business men out for
office, and that this was all the more
reason for early action.
| Talk Of Break With kuhio.
Whether or not the business men will
support Delegate Kuhio was the ques-
tion that Immediately developed as the
|tiiscussion went on, and seven men
among those present talked as IT,, In
view. of Kuhio's attitude, his attack on
Governor Frear involving the indus
tries and interests Of the Territory, and
what was termed his disregard of the
consequences. the business men should
definitely break away from him and
indorse another candidate for the Of
fee.
Norman Watkins, member of the
last House and a stanch Republican,
expressed himself strongly as believing
that the time has come when the bus
mess interests can no longer support
Kuhio and should seek out and work
for some other candidate II. NJ Won
Holt. A. F. Judd, A. L. Castle, ]. d.
McInerny. Richard Ivers, John Wise.
George w. Smith and others declared
that Kuhio has gone too far, and that
his activities are menacing Hawaii's
interests.
AS the discussion went on, several
names were suggested as those that
might be put up to oppose Kuhio should
it be decided that he ought to be OPP
posed. Charles A. Rice. j. NJ Dow
sett and D. p r. Isenberg were mem
toned, and it was felt that Mr.. Rice in
particular would be a strong candi-
date and successful campaigner
Two or three of the Speakers de-
clared that, win or lose, Kuhio should
be opposed by man that the busi-
ness interests of Hawaii can consist
emily and fully support. 1t was point
ed out that ever should Kuhio or the
Democratic nominee, McCandless, win

THE LABEL CASE
WILL BE RETIRED

j. b. TowiII, l.. w. Boykin and w. O.

Last September.
Columbia, S. c., May 2S.-The case
against John Bell Towill and L. W.
Boykins, former members of the State
dispensary board of control, and W.
o. Tatum, former commissioner of
the State dispensary, who are charged
with conspiracy to defraud the State
of South Carolina in connection with

ing the last days of the old State dis
pensary, will probably be called We'd
nesday in the Richland court of gen
eral sessions by j. Fraser Lyon, at
torney general. The case was heard
last September and resulted in mis-
trial.
The labels were bought from the
Nevisson- Weiskopf company of Gin
| cinnati In May 1905. Towin, Boy
kin and Tatum with Dennis Weiskopf
and Morton A. Goodman were in
dicted in 1909 on the charge of con-
spiracy to defraud the state in CON

In The trial last September the de-
tense did not put up any witnesses.
The case lasted for three days. The
jury failed to reach an agreement
after being out for a day and two
nights.
The first trial of the case was mark
ed by prolonged arguments over the
admission CT certain evidence offered
by the State. The actual taking of
the States testimony consumed a com
paratively short time The attorneys

The Advertisers:
Please allow me space in next is
sue of The Advertiser to reply to your
editorial of last issue, regarding that
Gray Court road and bridge" In
Justice to "rravelcr" this upper sec
tion OF Laurens county, and for the
benefit of the people at large, we will
describe, in detail, the location of this
road and bridge, so that the editor and
people Of the county may judge for
themselves, as to it's being zone of
the more important ones" This road
beginning at Gray Court -Owings, leads
west across the county, by way of
Dials church, Rabun Creek church.
Tumbling Shoals, to Princeton. Due
west and donea Path. The bridge,
spoken of, is down over south Rabun
Creek on above road. I'll dare say
that there Is not sane man, knowing
this road who will not say that its Tho
most important cross the country road
in this whole upper section of the
county. This is the direct route for
travellers in autos from Spartanburg
and Woodruff, to Due West, Honea
Path, etc. AS to our criticism being
unfair to Mr.. Humbert, will say that If
the editor was placed In our predica-
ment for short while, we are salts
ned In our own mind that he would
raise greater howl than we are
VIII say further that we have always
been strong supporter Of Mr.. Hum
bert. We only ask for square deal.
Our motive for this criticism was to
wake him up to a sense ~of duty to-
ward this section, as he seems to be
dead In that respect If we fail to
accomplish this, we sadly miss our
