" alSh Will
Succeed J.N.S.

William w. Walsh will succeed
J. N. S. Williams as Superinten-
dent of the Kahului Railroad Com
pany. At least that is the story
going the rounds. Mr.. Williams
will hold down the position till
after the return of President Frank
F. Baldwin from the mainland.
William Walsh has been on Maui
for number of years. He was for
merly in the Puunene office, and he
rose from third assistant to cashier,
within few years from the time
that he joined the office staff of the
H. c. & S. Co., Ltd.
A year or so ago Mr.. Walsh was
sent to Kahului to take the position
of assistant superintendent of the

opportunity to learn the business
and he has made good.

Another Ice
Plant M0Oted

That Wailuku is to have a new
ice making and cold storage plant,
is the latest development. The
Island Electric Company is said to
be interested in the scheme, and
the location of the new plant will
probably be on Market street.
For some time past there has
been talk of another ice works be-
ing started, but some people
thought that the talk was all hot
air. " However, it now seems that
the project is going through--if a
suitable site for the works can be
obtained.
Wailuku will be we'll supplied
with ice if the new proposition
comes to head, and the chances
are that a cold storage plant will
also be installed. 1t is said that
$4,000 will be put into the plant
for beginning.

Will Dredge
At Kahului

At a meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce that was held on Thurs
day last, there were many important
matters taken up and the meeting
lasted from three to six O'Clock.
Vice President Wadsworth was in
the chair, and there were a number
of members present. Three new
members were elected and they
were: j. II. Kunewa, George Free
land and w. w. Walsh.
The first business taken up was
the arrangement for the entertain
ment of the legislators when they
visit Maui on Maui 30. Several new
names were added to the various
committees, and further time was
allowed for arranging of details.
J. N. S. Williams gave out some
interesting news regarding the pro-
posed work to be done at Kahului.
The Federal engineers are going to
dredge the harbor, and the work is
going ahead as soon as possible. Mr..
Williams declared that the dredging
should be done before the stormy
weather begins. He said that only
about 10000 yards would have to
be dredged, and that the work could
be finished in few weeks. Will
liams asked the Chamber to go on
record as asking the War Depart
ment to tackle the Kahului job be-
fore doing any of the Honolulu or
Hilo work. The Chamber did as
requested.
w. o. Aiken presented for en-
dorsement a scheme to lead up to
Vocational Education. Connect
the boy with his future job" seems
to be the idea of those interested in
the affair. The Chamber passed the
scheme up to the Trustees and let it
go at that.

Maui Country
And Boat Club
New Organization Starts Operations
Clubhouse on Ocean Beach
Fine Scheme.

On Tuesday evening last the
Maui Boat and Country Club
was born. The infant is do
ing we'll, thank you, and the tinan-
cial backing of the organization is
strong enough for the purpose.
The club is capitalized at $4,000,
and 500 shares at $40 each are to
be issued. Each member of the
club will have to subscribe for at
least one share of stock. Wives
and families of members are en-
titled to all the privileges of the
club. Other ladies may become
associate members of the club upon
the payment of S3 per year. Lady
members need not buy stock i'll the
club and they will have no vote, of
course. The subscription for men
besides the purchasing of one
share of stock-is set at SO per
~lnnum.
The meeting on Tuesday evening
las held in the Masonic Temple
at Kahului, and there was a good
attendance of those who intend to
join the club.
The first business done was to
read over the report of the commit
tee on rules, etc. The rules were
gone over, section by section, and,
with but few amendments, were
adopted. The rules are almost
identical with those of the Homo
lulu Ontrigger Club.
The scheme as outlined at the
meeting, is to establish a rowing
shed at Kahului, and a Country
Club on the ocean beach about one
mile from Kahului. The oarsmen
will have their boats brought to
Kahului from the ocean beach, and
the men will do all their training
on the harbor.
The Country Clubhouse will be
built on the beach, somewhere near
the place where the boatshed now
stands. A suitable location for
I swimming will be found, and a
road will be built that will allow

Men Practise
Basket Ball

Down at the Wailuku gymnasium
they had some great fun when the
basketball team got underway last
Wednesday night. The team is
being organized to go up against the
Puunene, or any other bunch that
thinks it can play the game.
Ad. Chislett is shining light in
the sport-that is a certain part OF
his countenance is shining at pre-.
sent. His nose received so many
whacks from the ball the other night
that that member appears to have
been stricken by a boxing glove
many many times.
Dan Carey is going strong at the
game, and he challenged all the
Irish who attended the exercises.
Jack Walsh took up the Wailuku
man and defeated him three games
straight. The other members all
take the greatest interest in their
exercises, and the whole organiza-
ton is ready to back its team
against any other basketball outfit.

Especial Correspondence }

HONOLULU, March 1.-THE
news from Hilo is not half surpris-
ing to many people here, who are
familiar with conditions and the
wonder is that less time has not
been given to Rufus Lyman's acts
and more to the accounts of some of
the officials on the big island. Per-
haps it is because Rufey is where
he cannot fight back. Charlie
Mcguire, for years past, has been
in financial difficulties of one sort
or another and he has been, to a
certain extent, drain on his father.
There was a time when his sal
ary was alleged to be under the
ban for a period covering almost a
year, and that was only a few years
ago, so it is the wonder of those
who know him how he can live as
he does, and spend the money he
does for his living, and yet keep
straight. What is the difference
between his salary and his living
expenses today, and what both
were at the time he was so cramped

Legislators
To Visit Us
Senator's and Representatives VIII
Visit Maui-TO Be Shown Sights
Of Island.

Unless everything goes wrong Maui
will on March 20 entertain the
largest body of legislators that she
has ever seen. The Maui Chamber of
Commerce held a meeting of its
Trustees on Monday last, and the
determination was come to to invite
the legislators of both houses to
visit Maui, when OH their way to
Hawaii.
The legislators were to take the
Mauna Kea this afternoon, at Ho-
nolulu, and to proceed, direct, to
Hilo. That plan was known to the
Mani Representatives and Senators,
and they at once get busy and pro-
posed that the big body of solons
should take the Claudine to Kahu-
lui, visit the sights of Maui and
then, later on Saturday evening,
catch the Mauna Kea at Lahaina.
This plan was hailed with delight
by the legislators, but the date had
to be changed to March 20.
The morning they arrive, after
breakfast, the solons will journey over
the Haiku extension of the Kahului
Railroad They will see for Them
selves the wonderful strides made
by the railroads, and the Senators
and Representatives will be able to
view the homesteads that are being
extended every day.
After everything of note has been
seen out Haiku way, the visitors
will return to Wailuku and enjoy
lunch. In the afternoon they will
made some more excursions and
will, finally, say goodbye to Wal
luku and depart for Lahaina. At
the ancient capital the proposed
site for a wharf at Mala will be in
spected, and then the visitors will
board the steamer and sail for
Honolulu.

Some startling facts were brought
to light at the meeting of the Maui
Chamber of Commerce last Thurs
day. The Kula pipe line was un-
der discussion, and the committee
that had been appointed to inves-
tigate the sites for the proposed
dam-either at Olinda or Waiaka-
moi-had turned in their report.
1t was then that the bomb eXplod-
ed, and some light on the way the
Kula pipe line has been misman-
aged was shown.
In the construction of the Kula
pipe line and its banches there has
been expended a sum total of about
S175,OOO. The maintenance and
upkeep of the system is costing the
County about $4OO per month.
Adding to this the interest on the
bonds and Indebtedness, the sum
per annum for the maintenance
comes to S11 900 per annum. Fig
ures from the treasurer's office
show that the income from the sys
tenn, for the quarter ending Decem-
Der 81, 1912, was S4S4. 51-or at a

Endorse Mala
Wharf Idea

There will be erected wharf at
Mala, if the wishes of the Maui
Chamber of Commerce are regarded
in the proper quarters. The cham
ber endorsed a resolution of Mr..
Weinzheimer, last Thursday, calling
for the construction of a wharf at
the point named, which is about
one and one half miles from the
present Lahaina landing.
The bill which has been introduc-
ed in the House asks for a deep sea
wharf, fitted out to handle the large
American-Hawaiian and Matson
steamers. The Maui Chamber OF
Commerce could not see fit to en-
dorse that propositions, and con-
tented itself by favoring the con-
struction of a wharf that could ac-
commodate the Mauna Kea or any
other Inter Island steamer
Engineer Howell produced some
plans that show where the wharf
could be built. He also gave some
data in connection with the length,
width and material of the proposed
wharf for big vessels.

New Bills
Discussed

At the Chamber of Commerce
meeting last Thursday, the reports
of the legislative committee were
turned in. There was little or no
debate on most of the proposed bills,
but two of them caused some talk
One was that which advocates the
raising of the age of consent to 16
years. The other was a law that
would make it necessary for any
county office holder to be a payer
of taxes in the county to the amount
of at least ten dollars per year.
The last named measure failed to
get the endorsement of the Cham
ber-by casting vote of the vice
president. The idea of the bill was
to prevent outsiders who have no
stake IN the county, coming for
ward and grabbing some of the
plums at election time. The age OF
consent bill was not endorsed either.
The action of the members of the
Chamber in not endorsing the bills
recommended by the legislative
committee, places the latter body in
peculiar position. The time is
limited as regards the session of the
legislature, and the chamber of
commerce onl y meets once month.
If every act of the committee is to
be reported to the chamber, as a
whole, fhere well be delay that will
be. fatal to the bills. There is such
a short time that the legislators can
not begin to handle all the bills,
especially if they are sent in at the
end of the session. However, the
chamher decided that proposed bills
be all submitted to the Trustees of
the chamber and that body pass on
the merits of same. This may worg
out alright and allow Cf bills goin
in in time to be acted upon.

the cane fields to the blue Pacific,
the Puunene hospital is a notable
landmark. The building stands
up as monument to the owners of
the huge H. c. e. S. Co. 5 planta-

DR.. F. E. Sawyer, who designed
the hospital, made it his slogan
that all the wards should be "out-
door" ones. That is to say that
the wards should have windows
opening on to the fresh air on all
sides. The plan was good one
but difficult to arrange for. At last
it was decided to build the hospital
in the form of a "star-fsh" and to
have a small open air court in the
middle. In this way the wards all
have an uninterrupted stream of
fresh air flowing through from one
side to the other. The courtyard
itself is a beautiful place, and an
ever-playing fountain adds to the
