BIG DREDGER TO
RECLAIM Low
LANDS

With view to retaining a large
area of land fronting on the beach in
the Kewalo district, which was cen.
demned more than year ago by the
board of health, the Lord-Young En-
cheering Company. which was award
ed the contract for the job by the ter
ritcry, is now installing q dredger and
a quantity of electric apparatus on the
site and will commence actiye work
within three weeks.
Following the condemnation OF the
land by the board of health, which
body set forth that the area was too
low to insure good health for the resi-
dents, the territory ordered the prop
erty owners to fill in thir land to a
certain grade, the territory to pay for
the work at whatever price the con-
tracts called for. Very few of the
owners responded to the order, and as
q result the territory finally took the
matter into its own hands, and on May
% of last year opened bids for the
contract. The contract was awarded
the Lord Young Company, and work
was commenced at once, but owing to
technicalities in the contract was
dropped until a short time ago, when
work was resumed.

ANOTHER HONOLULU BOY
MAKES GOOD ON COAST

Another Honolulu boy to make good
in musical circles on the, mainland is
A. w. Heen, who comes from a prom
inent family in the Islands and who
left here five years ago. Heen is now
a member of the University of Califor-
MIA Glee Club and is said to be one
of the cleverest entertainers to enter
that institution.
Haley, the comedy actor; Ettinger,
the phenomenal baritone; Harris, the
character artist, and Heen compose
one of the cleverest quartets of which
the university boasts, says San Fran
cisco paper. 1t is rather a coinci-
Gence that they should all be in coli
lege togetherf and in the sophomore
class, and the Glee Club is fortunate
to count them among its members.
Each one is in constant receipt of flat
tering offers from the leading vaudey
vile houses, but they prefer to finish
their college course before entering
the professional field.

sentative Sheldon which amends the

cent of the par value of the stock is
sued by each public utility and out
standing on December 81 of the pre-
ceding year shall be paid toward the
maintenance of the commission.
Sheldon's H. b. 306, as amended by
the house finance committee and pass
ed on second reading today, would re.
duce that tax to one-fiftieth of one
percent. but would add the following:
"a fee equal to one-twentieth of one
Ter cent of the gross income from the
public utility business carried on ~
such public utility in this territory

suit with view to putting an end to
the social evil.
The resolution, which was intro
duced by ]. r. Gait, and passed at
the meeting, is as follows:

evils without mitigation, contrary to
the law of God and the statues of

Whereas, There is now before the

UNIFORMS To
Be UNIFORM

There is ray of hope for the sol
dier man who has to wear the cotton
service uniform day in and day out
during his whole tour in Hawaii. For
from Washington comes the informa-
ton that there is good chance Of
the uniform becoming uniform in the
course of time Just how long the.
period of transition will be is not
stated, but perhaps in another year
most of the organizations will have
the same style of clothing. This,
however, is an inside estimate.
A letter from the chief of staff,
General Wood, to the department COM
mander states that an earnest effort
is being made to outfit the Hawaiian
organizations with the authorized
olive drab cotton service, lace leg
gins and russell shoes The letter in
closes a memorandum from the chief
of the quartermaSter. corps, stating
that the old-style uniforms were be-

Rico and the Philippines, and that

color would be shipped to Hawaii

SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST
APPEALS TO SENATORS

A protest against the Sunday law
was heard in the senate yesterday,
when the petition of James Syle, a
Seventh Day Adventist, was heard,
asking that the law be repealed. After
stating, that by his, faith the last day
of the week is his Sabbath, he says:
This law forces us either to keep
two Sabbaths, pay fines or go to Jail,
or be traitors to our conscience and
Creator who commands us to remem.
Der the Sabbath day and work six
days. Some of these religionists have
already been arrested and fined for
that lawful crime1 of earning bread
for ourselves and families"
