The heavy fall of SOfI snow has completely blocked the trail up Solomon Sulch to the Midas mine for teams and no more orc will br brought down for some time. The tcamsters have been having considerable trouble in transport ing orc to the beach and the bunkrrs at inc minc arg full, ncc- cssiiaIing the laying |oT of d number of miners whJ have been employed while shipnAenls were being made.

 Others coming from the inter- for are also expected to arrive on the Northwestern from Cordova. The delegations from Fairbanks and creek precincts will include Fred Heilig, Dan Callahan and Martin Harrais, with John Roman and Andrew Nerland from Idit- arOd.
 It is possible there will be two delegations from Cordova, as both factions claim to be the ac- credited delegates and will nec- cssarily be at the convention in person. William O'Connor has expressed his intention of com ing and will bring the delegation headed by him, which triumphed at the primaries.
 Seward elected five delegates and they arc sure to be present in person at the convention, as a live Democratic club has been or. ganized there 10 support the can- didacy of Robert Jennings.

The Valdez delegates to the Re- publican convention will leave on the return trip of the Northwest ern for Cordova. Those elected were Jas. Fish, J. c. Martin, Thos. R. Shepard, Norman Merchant, Ray Larson and Barney Niebling.
 Some of the delegates will not attend owing to the long absence from business necessitated by the schedule of steamers. Nor man Merchant will not attend nor will Ray Larson, but it is under stood they will be represented in person by proxies. Chas. Wolfe has expressed his intention of going and il is understood Judge George R. Walker will also at tend in order tO make sure the convention will endorse Presi- dent Taft. whom he regards as the biggest statesman of Amer ica.

 A number of telpgramS have been received by Valdez people who supported the independent candidate last election from pol iticians in Nome requesting them to consult with the delegates. They express the belief that con- ditiOns arc favorable for all fac tions of the Republican party get ting together. No public meet lngs to that end have as yet been advertised.

OAHU WINS FIGHT
FOR CONVENTION
Association Of Churches to Meet
on This Island Next
Year.

Z Especial Wireless to The Advertiser.)
LIHUE. Kauai, July l7.-Oahu will
be the host of the 1913 convention of
the association of churches of Hawaii.
The competition between the Islands
was very keen for the honor, and Oahu
won by one vote.
The 1912 convention of the associa-
ton of the churches of Hawaii, in SEES
sion mere, is probably the largest in
the history of the association, and 1t
was necessary to engage two steamers
to bring the delegates here. The XII
nan arrived last Wednesday with every
available space taken by members OF
the association and the following day
the Claudine brought all she could
carry.
The guests were rapidly conveyed to
their quarters near the scene of the
meeting. A large awning la
mai. with ample table and seat accom-
modations, served az dining room,
where w. H. Rice took care TO see that
n generous spread was served three
times day.
The opening session at once demons
.rate5 the fact that no building in Lii
hue was large enough to hold the CON
vention. After this first meeting the
sessions were held outdoors on the
lawn in front of the church, which is
amply shaded by large over-archlng
trees and where nothing can be deslr-
ed in the way of ventilation ana ar
From the annual report of the sec
retary of the association 1T appears
that the total membership of the
churches under the Hawaiian Board or
affiliated with it is 1894, about 5000
of whom are Hawaiian, distributed
among 6S churches.
The japanese churches show a mem
bership of nearly 1900, net gain tor
the year of 1874.
The Reverend o. H. Gmick, who has
served so long and well in the work
ON two continents, now retires largely
from active service, and Will devote
himself to the preparation of history
of missionary work in Hawaii.
Attention was called in the report
TO the growing need of social settle,
ment work in and about Honolulu, and
comprehensive plans were reported for
meeting the needs of this work.
1t is significant of the range and ex-
tent of the work of the Hawaiian
Board that the treasurer reported an
expenditure of over $s7 1000, though but
$4,000 was spent in regular work.
Three islands, Hawaii, Oahu and ha-
uai contested last evening for the ban
ner which annually goes to the c. h.
class producing the best group of sing
ers. The concert was attended by
large and apreciative audience. The
committee, after some deliberation,
awarded the banner to Hawaii IS dele
cation.

DUKE TO RETURN
ON THE LURuNE

Duke Kahanamoku will return to
Honolulu August % on the steamship
Lurline, and will be given an ovation
in which his club, the Hui Nalu, will
take leading part, A "Duke Kahan-
amoku Fund" committee was organ
lied by the Star Bulletin yesterday to
receive contributions to the fund which
is being raised in Honolulu to be pre-
scented to the champion swimmer of the
world, the gift probably to take the
form of house and lot, in addition to
n purse. The committee is composed
of the following: w. T. Rawlins,
chairman; J. Kuhio Kalanianaole,
Delegate to congress-; Mayor Joseph
J. Fern, A. l.. c. Atkinson, A. L..
Castle, Chas. F. Chillingworth, Arthur
A. Wilder, Alexander May and Lew G..
Henderson.
A meeting of the committee will be
held at four O'Clock this afternoon in
the office of Mr.. Rawlins, Judd Build
ing, to select secretary and treasurer
and to lay out definite plan of cam
paign. Subscription lists will be pre-
pared and placed all over the city in
the hands of competent hustlers, and
the campaign for funds will go ON mer-
riIy. AS Duke will not be here for
about six weeks the committee believes
it can raise very substantial fund.
Hama, Maui, admirers of the
''Duke'' suggest that the hookupu be
reserved until the very last when the
house and lot are ready and the hoo
kupu will be used to furnish the house
in the good old Hawaiian way. The
Maui people believe $4,000 can be
raised on Maui.
Archie Robertson of T. ii. Davies &
Company circulated n list among EN-
ployes of the house and raised $23
which was turned in yesterday.
The Advertiser receives eontribu-
tons to the fund These may be left

NEED MORE DREDGING
TO FIT ALAKEA SLIP

The bulkhoad wharf for the area be.

at length by the harbor board vester-
day map being used to show the
soundings just completed by the de.

The Alakea slip will require consider.
able dredging in the mauka- Eva corner
and much dredging will be required all
along the bulkhead line. for the
wharves now standing will be chopped
Off materially.
Commissioner Wakefield proposed
that some alterations be made in the
position of the Oceanic wharf in order
that better berth will he afforded TO
steamers and keep their sterns out of
the way of vessels passing up and
down the harbor. BY slanting off the
front several feet an aggravating Jog

bell, however, stated that to slice Off
the front of the wharf meant also the
remodeling of the entire front of the
wharf shed and this would involve
considerable expense.
1t was also proposed to cut away n
considerable portion of the Oceanic
wharf warehouse in order to take out
a Jog in the wharf and add more
freight space. The warehouse could
be added to at the makai end where
considerable space is taken up by piles
of coal.
The bulkhead wharf, as planned,
will take in the lower part of Fort
street and the shed win cover an inn
mense area, the major portion being
over solid ground.

DUKE SENDS ALOHA
TO FRIENDS HERE

Success on the mainland did not turn
Dukes head and it is not likely that
his by far greater success at Stockholm
will do that either. Duke is very reg
ular in his correspondence and there is
not a mail comes in from the Coast,
but brings letters and postals to his
loved ones here. He always concludes
with Aloha to all and regards to the
boys.'
Here are few samples from postals
received yesterday:
To his father and dated at sea, June
"a: here at sea, having good time
and all well aboard Rained this morn
ing quite lot but it's over now. Have
been swimming in little tank
(aboard). Some travelling Daddy!
Bought little camera in New York
Hope results will be good throughout.
Fine bunch of athletes. Sang Aloha
Oe for Colonel Thompson Ca million
aire) last night on board. He appre-
ciated it very much and shook hands
with us, The boys also appreciated my
singing. Aloha nui and regards to the
boys. Duke"
On the reverse side of the card were
the autograph signatures of "the
boys, - including Dukes in full, as fol
lows: Duke p Kahanamoku, Otto
Wahle, James H. Reilly, 7. Nerich, NJ.
McDermitt, Ken HuZagh, Harry Heb
ner, Perry McGillivray, Arthur McAlee-
man, Jr. and G. w. Gaidzik.
On postal dated June 26, also to
his father, the world champion swimmer
says: CARVED at Antwerp at 10 a.
m. Went all round the city. Had
swim in tank-swam 100 meters in
60 As. VIII sail for Stockholm on
Wednesday. All well. Best regards
to all. Aloha nui. Duke. F."
In still another postal Duke says that
he "met George Macfarlane in New
York and he was glad to see me. So
was / to see him, you bet!"
To his mother he writes: 81 am
anxious to get into the water" To
his sister he says that they were eight
days ont from New York.
Duke will probably visit Germany,
France and England before starting on
the way home. He will go to Atlantic
City where the crowds will see him on
the surf board, something he likes and
on which he is past master.
