AUTO TRUCKS TO
PARADE JULY 4
Stunning Styles Promised in
New Feature in the Big
Celebration

81 find that the big FIRMS of the city
are planning to put their auto trucks
in the Fourth of July parade said
Charles H. Frazier, in charge of the
auto truck section of the pageant, this
morning, "and wish to impress upon
the public that this auto section is
going to be something big and new,
and that it is going to show the ma
tional colors in brilliant style.
The decorations Of the autos are
limited to the national eolors, but the
entrants will be allowed to display
such signs as they see fit to use. This
makes the entries inexpensive, but
leaves a leeway for some original
work, and understand that there will
be some strikingly decorated convey
ances. The committee in charge has
allowed signs Of a more or less ad-
vertising nature, and | have heard
from some of those who are planning
to enter their machines. of schemes to
show some comic signs and floats.
There will be something like thirty
decorated auto trucks in line, and they
will make a very brilliant showing"
Senator Charles F. ChilIingwOrth,
who has been appointed grand mar
shall for the Fourth OF July pageant,
discussed the line of march Of the
parade with Manager Ballentyne of
the rapid transit this morning, and
the following route was arranged:
From the capital along King street to
Nuuanu, up Nuuanu to Beretania ave
nue., along Beretania to Miller street,
and thence to the capitol Mr.. Chill
Iingworth is selecting his aides today,
and among them will be Oscar Cox.
Jack Fernandez, Henry Rose and
"HaoIe" Sumner. Work was com
menced this morning ON the decoration
of the grandstand in the capitol
grounds, at which place the exercises
will be held at II o'clock on the morn
ing of the Fourth.

The scene IS Waikiki beach. When
the curtain rings up number of per-
sons are seen in the act of bathing or
summing up courage to jump into the
ocean blue. 1T the center stage are
two maidens. wearing tight-titting
mems bathing suits. They hold for
picture Docile married men lurk up
stage stealthily observing the two
girls, yet thinking of their wives and
other difficulties -. =. -
There is a noticeable excitement
along the beach at the unusual and fas-
cinating sight Old women are heard
to tell old men that lit was not like
that in the solden days" And though
the old men don't say anything. it is
made clear by their optic actions that
they. would rather have one of the
present days than whole assortment
of the bygone ones. Younger women
are seen leading their husbands firmly
and blushingly away. disappearing at
right and left upper. -.
Soon the beach is cleared of all but
the irresponsible unmarried and the
two maidens, who walk slowly and de-
murely to the waters %edge They
have noticed the looks of reprimand
from the elderly women and young
wives, but do not seem to understand
its cause. They seem like the, maidens
of Arcadia who found themselves sud-
denly in a queer and different eiviliza-
tion where people had strange ideas
and spoke vaguely of 'modesty.''

Just emerging, bending over and car
tying bucket. The bucket cover
law outside the door. Before the
guard realized what was happening
Domingo had snatched up the cover
and swung it down upon the Japan
ese's head.
The victim wilted and dropped to
the cement floor. Before Domingo
could move again the guard caught
him by both arms, picked him up bod
lily and threw him into the cell, slam
ming the door and turning the key
before he could regain his feet,
The japanese did not regain con-
sciousness for several minutes. The
cash across the back of his head was
as clean as though it had been SLASH
ed by knife. Sheriff Henry says the
bone was not fractured, however, and
the prisoner apparently suffered no
grave injury.
Since that day the three doomed
men have been compelled to take their
exercise within the very narrow con-
fines of their individual cells and
must continue to do so until the final
day arrives. Meantime an armed
guard marches continually up and
down the corridor before the deah
cells, maintaining vigilance hat is
not relaxed at any moment OF the
twenty-four hours. At night bright
light in the corridor shines through
the bars, enabling the guard to see
everything plainly in each cell.
Domingo told one of the guards
that he attacked the Japanese prison.
er because-the latter had called him a
bad name some days ago" said Sher-
iff Henry, ''but / am inclined to doubt
il. That particular man Mas been a
model prisoner. by no means offensive,
and none of the guards can remember
that he has ever spoken to any of the
condemned men.
at is possible Domingo was making
a desperate attempt at jail delivery,
hoping to start excitement that would
enable him to overpower the guard
and get away. But that hardly IS
likely, for his fury was not directed
toward the guard"
AS customary with men under death
sentence, the Filipinos are kept in
strict seclusion, apart from the other
prisoners, but permitted to see few
personal friends, to have such reading
matter as they desire and to select
their menus So far the only persons
from outside who have called have
been Father Valentin and Rev. Mr..
Smith, the former bringing some
Biblical and other literature in Fill

NAY not CUT
SUGAR DUTY TILL
MARCH OF 1914

A cablegram that is not quite clear,
but which nevertheless is regarded
as conveying good news for Hawaii.
came to the Hawaiian Sugar Planters
Association this morning from Attor
ney s. M. Ballou, the planters Wash
ington representative. The cablegram
said:
Senate committee on finance voted
duty not to be changed until 1914
March. BALLoU.'
The original tariff reduction plan
provided for an immediate cut of %
per cent and free sugar after Septem
ber I, 1916. 1t is thought possible
that the senate committee favors no
reelection until March of next year and
a 25 per cent cut thereafter until the
free sugar plan becomes operative.
The association has cabled for more
definite Information.

CIVIL SERVICE
COMMISSION TO
HOLD SESSION
Senator Writ Pleased with the
Membership Named by
Mayor Fern
WILL COMMENCE IT'S
WORK IMMEDIATELY
Opinion of Attorney general
Thayer Is Ignored in Max
ing Appointments

Immediately calling meeting Of the
civil service commission. which was
appointed by Mayor Fern and APP
proved by the supervisors at their
meeting Saturday, Senator Ambrose
j. Wirtz, chairman of the commission,
showed today that there will be no
Delay in bringing the fire and police
departments under the Jurisdiction Of
the new commission
Mr. Wirtz sent notices to his follow
commissioners, d. NJ Kupihea and
John +. Doyle, upon receiving word
of their appointments, that the first
meeting will be held Tuesday morn
ing, at which time the organization
OF the body will be effected and the
first steps taken in the work before
the commission
Those who followed with interest
the fight made In the senate and in
the house of representatives during
the last session of the legislature for
the passage of the bill, bringing the
police and fire departments Of HO-
nolulu under civil service, expressed
themselves as highly pleased with
the appointments made by Mayor
Fern.
The only question raised is the
legality OF the appointments. In
naming Senator Wirtz and Represent
alive Kupihea the city chief executive
Ignored the opinion given him by At,
torney General Thayer, in which 1t
was stated that the statute prohibits
a member of the legislature from
holding another office of the territory
applied, indirectly at least, to the
commissioners OF civil service, and
that il the appointment Of a member
of the legislature to such an office
were not absolutely invalid. it was
clearly against public policy.
The mayor stated this morning
that he believed that his appoint
ments were unquestionably valid and
a similar statement was made by
Senator Wirtz. who asserted that If
he believed there was serious doubt
in the matter he would have declined
the position. Former first deputy city
and county attorney, Fred. Milverton,
in brief opinion, called for by the
mayor some time ago, held that a
member of the legislature acting as y
civil service commissioner could not
be considered as holding two positions
under the territory within the mean
ing of the statute
"If thought there was good ground
to doubt the validity of my appoint
ment, | would have declined 1T" said
Mr.. Wirtz this morning, but it seems

.H.B. GIFFARD HURT
in AUTO ACCIDENT

H. B. Giffard, Of the brokerage firm
of Giffard & Roth, who left for Ha-
wall on a vacation few days ago.
returned to his office this morning
with a severe cut over his eyebrow,
the result of an automobile accident
near Kona the last Of the week.
While attempting to repair the self
starter" of the machine in which he
was driving, a sharp piece of steel
flew off, barely missing his eye and
inflicting deep wound over the eye
brow.
Several stitches were taken in the
cut before he began his trip home. II
was found when he arrived here that
they would have to be taken out and
the wound sewed up anew. 1t will
be a number of days before the cut
will heal, his physicians have told
him.
Though his vacation was brought
to a sudden end, he saw considerable
of the island, especially on the Kona
side. There the rains have improved
conditions wonderfully, he says, and
the cattle are in excellent shape.
Grazing is better now than it has
been for years on all the ranches,
states Mr.. Giffard.
The sugar plantations on which he
visited also are in fine condition, he.
