LIQUOR CURSE
OF ORIENTALS
Wadman Says Illicit DistiIIerieS
Flourish in Plantation
Camps.

That there is excessive drinking
among foreigners, principally Asiaties,
on the plantations of these Islands, is
the opinion Of Rev. John w. Wadman.
1t is further asserted by the clergy
man that "blind pigs flourish and
that illicit distilling is practised.
Mr., Wadman, goes from one end of
the Territory to another in the prose-
cution of his work as superintendent
of Methodist Episcopal missions, He
finds that foreign plantation hands are
led to drink by the prevalence of
"blind pigs" and the Illicit manu-
facture of alcoholic drinks, and asserts
that all good work among the orientals
is seriously retarded by these and
kindred abuses which he believes the
officers of the law should investigate
and suppress.
Mr.. Wadman says: ''The drink evil
confronts us everywhere, and plays
havoc among the weaker races gath
cred here. The saloon prospers. Blind
pigs flourish. Illicit distilling is prac-
tised. Gambling in camps is frequently
permitted Sunday Dissertation is too
often encouraged by paying a higher
wage to those who are willing to work
on that day."

SAN DIEGO, April 3.--Today the

replied in answer to the call made last

FATHER OF WATERS
CONSTANTLY RISING
Weather Bureau Warns People
That Higher Level Is to
Follow.

WASHINGTON, April 4.-The pre-
dietions of Chief Moore of the United
States weather bureau are that the
Mississippi River will continue to rise
until early in May.
The announcement, telegraphed to all
points interested along the great CEN
trail waterway, has caused considerable
CONSERVATION from the junction of the
Missouri down to New Orleans, but it
will probably mean the saving of mil
lions of dollars worth of property.
If the prediction comes true all rec
ords for rises of the "Father of
Waters will have been broken, for the
present floods have reached height
approximately before unknown at this
season of the year.
All along the river, according to re-
ports received today, the people are
moving from their homes or at least
making preparation for the more SER
ious times expected. The government
has sent out repeated warnings within
the past twenty.four hours and serious
loss of life is not expected.

SEEKING TO AMERICANIZE
HAWAII CATHOLIC CHURCH

The Americanization of the Roman
Catholic church in Hawaii is subject
that has come up for discussion in con-
nection with the talk of moving the
convent and cathedral from their pres
ent location on Fort street. 1t is de-
clared that there is quite strong SEN
timent among those connected with the
church in favor of changing from the
present or Belgian jurisdiction to that
of America.
This was done in the case of the Epis-
copal church here, almost Immediately
after annexation. In that case there
was a bitter controversy, of long stand
ing, between the English bishop and
some of the communicates. There is
no such rumpus ON among the Catholics,
but there is very earnest wish of
many to make the church American.
The Catholic church here now is un,
der the jurisdiction of the Order of
the Sacred Hearts, Belgian order, and
Bishop Libert is the head He has the
final say in all matters of management.
1t is stated by some that Hawaii

|NTER-|SLAND GETS
RIGHT TO BUILD ON
FLOATING DOCK SITE
(From Thursdays Advertiser.)

(fTom thursdays Advertiser.)
The harbor commission yesterday
granted to the Inter-Island company
the right to use the Eva end of the
Hackfeld slip for its floating pontoon
dock. The steamship company is to
safeguard the public's interests by
making the Nuuanu stream seawall
safe. The location of the pontoon in
the slip will cause the Nuuanu stream
water to force its way into the outer
end of the slip with greater velocity
than at present, and this action may
undermine the present seawall.
An effort will be made to lease or
get control of the small piece of land
adjoining the Eva end of the slip so
that the steamship company may have
room for a shop.

SELECT HAWAII S
SITE AT THE FAIR
Ideal Place, Says Secretary of
Special committee--Urges
Haste at This End.

The site for Hawaii s building at the
San Francisco 1915 Fair has been
selected by the special site committee
in San Francisco, representing the Ha-
wall Fair Commission. The site faces
the bay on one of the main boulevards
where it crosses two other boulevards,
and is an ideal place for making a
splendid display. William G. Irwin,
chairman, George NJ. Rolph, secretary,
Wallace Alexander, Captain Matson and
E. NJ. Walsh, made the selection.
The committeeman were confronted
by a situation which did not please
them, but by diplomacy secured what
they wanted and Hawaii will be known
through the exposition publicity as a
territory and not possession of the
United States as the officials had
classified the Hawaiian Islands.
The members of the committee met
the fair officials Wednesday and dis
cussed with them the question of a
suitable site for Hawaii. The engineers
for the exposition had the grounds laid
out in such manner as to group the
States of the mainland together and
the insular possessions in another. This
arrangement put the Territory of Ha-
waii in class with Guam, the Philip
pines, Porto Rico, Panama, Samoa, etc,
which would give the impression to the
public that the status of the Territory
of Hawaii is similar to that of the
possessions.

Committee Wins.

The committee strenuously objected to
this arrangement, and after bringing all
the arguments possible to bear on the
exposition officials, the latter agreed to
allow Hawaii to select site among the
states and territories.
The ruling of the exposition company
is that each state shall be allowed land
three times the actual area of the build
ing to be erected In other words, if
the building which the Territory pur
poses to erect covers one acre Of ground,
three acres will be allowed for exposi-
ton purposes. The members of the site
committee were not in possession of
any direct information as to what sort
of building the Territory will have,
and it was only after they had been
shown the drawings and plans of Ar
chitect Applegarth that they consented
to the committee selecting the site now
credited to the Territory. The commit
tee advised the company that while it
could not say that the Applegarth
plans would be accepted by the Hawaii
Fair Commission, still the building
would be of like design, proportions
and beauty.

Another Site.


The site committee also reserved the
site in the space allowed for the Insular
Possessions, as the ground area allotted
in that location is greater than the area
allowed in the space set aside for the
various states. The site committee, on
second thought, felt that the Territory
might desire to build in the Insular
Possession tract, as the ground area
allotted in that location is greater than
the area allowed in the space set aside
for the various states
eve must impress upon the Terri
tory writes Secretary Rolph, "and
very forcibly, the necessity of quick
action at your end, as the exposition
officials were very insistent for informa
ton as to the exact size, style and de-
sign of building you intend to erect, and
the parking scheme you propose to
adopt. They also desire to know the
amount of money that will be appropri-
ated, first for the building, second for
the exposition, and third for entertain
ment during the period of the fair. -
The committee, in the absence of any
figures, gave the best answers it could
to these queries. The site committee
finds that it will be impracticable to
erect a permanent building as gift to
the city of San Francisco, as first pro-
posed, as the exposition land owned by
the exposition company will be utilized
for what is known as the "California
Building" which will be built by the
joint subscriptions of the fifty-two
counties of the State of California.
There is a city park within the
boundaries of the exposition grounds,
but the main administration buildings
will cover this area.
