CANEF|ELD FIRE
ALMOST IN L|HUE

Lihue plantation was threatened
with a bad cane-feld fire yesterday
(Mondav) evening; but as there
was little wind at the time and
ample assistance responded to the
whistle for fire-fghters, only about
five acres Of ripe cane were burned
over. As it most fortunately turned
out, The fire never got beyond cane
which was to nave Deen cut in a
few days anyhow, so that the loss
is practically nil.
The fire started in the cane close
to the Porto Rican camp toward
Nawiliwili, about 7 O'Clock.
Laboters in the camp turned out
promptly, and Sheriff Rice notified
the plantation management. There
being little or no wind, alarm was
not felt until sometime afterward,
when the fire got bevond control.
Then a general alarm was turned
in. A train load of laborers arrived
in few minutes from the mill
neighborhood, w h | c hundreds
came via the main road from up
town. Another load was
held in readiness at the Hanamau-
lu side.
Attention has first given to pro-
tecting the houses of the camp,
and then big force of men sur
rounded the fire mauka, to keep it
from crossing the road into the
younger cane, where a great deal
of damage would have been done.
Luckily, the wind stayed down
and the hot fire was squelched
near the camp road.
Speaking of the matter later,
Rev. Hans lsenberg, president of
the Lihue Plantation Co.. said:
We have had close shave, but
are thankful to say that no damage
has been done, as the fire was con.
fined to cane that was ready to cut,
The origin of the fire is mystery,
ard will probably remain so. We
are satisfied, however, that the
field was not maliciously fired. 1t
was an accident, due, perhaps, to
carelessness of someone around the
camp"
Sheriff Rice is of the opinion
that the blaze was started by gam
blers. He states that it is COM
mon thing for gamblers TO 60 into
the fields, where they cannot
be seen readily and he surmises
that a cigarette stump, thrown
into the cane, caused the fire.
Fire on the Lihue plantation is
such an unusual thing that almost
the entire country around turned
out. Many automobiles appeared,
and quite number of mer from a
distance came in on horseback.
Being practically in the edge of
Lihue town, almost everybody
showed up somewhere i'll the big
crowd of spectators.

ON THE
WAIPOULI LANDS

Considerable building activity
has started up OH the new home

paa. Among others, Fred Tracey
is building quite a fine country re-
sidence of seven rooms, with barn
and servants quarters. Mrs. Booge
will build soon. T.. NJ Cheathau
will start work on his barn at once
and will begin building his house

cupy another house in the neigh
borhood until their own is com
pleted.
Planting is also starting up with
a vim. Mr.. Horner, of course,
takes the lead, with about eighty
acres planted for the Pineapple
Company. J. B. Featherstone has
planted about five acres on his
homestead, and Mrs. Booge about
one acre. These and a number of
others have their land ploughed
and will plant extensively in the
course of the next two months.
1t is planned to have work on
the new cannery begin in June
Building operations W i'll be so
arranged that the cannery will be

B|RDMAN FAILS
IN HIS PROGRAM

Tom Gum had very bad luck in his
efforts to please a small audience at Po-
ipu, near the Koloa landing, Sunday.
An attempt to carry out the water end
of the program failed, and the air part
of it was abandoned entirely. The mo-
ney of all those who had paid for ground
privileges was refunded. however, o
that all of the visitors were out, perhaps,
was the trouble o going over there,
some travelling quite Il distance.
The aviator was on his machine only
once. At that time he skinned out to
the reef and there stuck. He released
his machine with considerable difficulty
and at more or less risk, and brought it
back to the shore again. Speaking Of the
matter afterward, Gum complained bit
tcrly of the Indifference of boatmcn
near by to his pilikia, claiming that he
nearly lost his life as well as the machine
as the result OF the failure of his helpers
to come to his relief.
After this failure, there was good
deal ssof pow WOW over the thing, and
Gum finally announced that the owners
OF the machine would not take the risk
of sany further attempts; and, eventu-
ally, the whole program was called OFF.
Gum has played in exceedingly hard
luck on Kauai, but has been probably
less unfortunate than his hackers,
the latter having spent considerable mo-
ncy and takeu large risks in the interest
of successful entertainments.

EDITOR GARDEN ISLAND:

EDITOR GARDEN ISLAND:
Permit me to use little space
in your valuable paper whereby to
express through your columns to
the Government School Teachers
of Kauai our deep sense of appreci-
alton of their courtesy and kindness
during the recent tour of the Is
land made by Rev. Henry P. Judd
and myself. 1t was an unusual
pleasure on our part to visit each
school on the way from Kekaha to
Haena, with only two or three un-
avoidable exceptions, and to look
into the bright happy faces of the
pupils in the crowded class-rooms
as we'll as to note the splendid
work being done by such a noble
band Of efficient teachers. Words
fail to express the feelings of ap-
probation we should like to re-
cord. We only wish that many
others could have seen what we
have, with such pleasure, witness
ed. The public OF this beautiful
island may rest assured that their
school system, as far as we are
able to Judge, is excellent and the
work done in the schools by these
faithful and well qualified public
servants is worthy of all praise.
We carry away with us the most
pleasant recolleCtions O a very
memorable visit.
On behalf of Mr.. Judd and my
self, | remain.
Yours very truly,

of many thrilling experiences, from
Petersburg, Virginia to Hopkins

Being strangers. they asked several
girls to go together. Lieut.. Chinn
arrived in great style, with an old
family coach and stately old negro
driver, all confscated.
Our escort was youthful and deli
cate looking, almost girlish in APP
pearance. He wore a pair of woman S
shoes, also confscated.
Col. Chenowith introduced the
soldiers to the ladies. Loaded guns
with bayonets set, stood against the
walls of the room; and all danced
with loaded pistols around their
waists. AS | was not dancing, many
brought their belts to lay near me.

inside the building. Col. Chenowith
and others were sitting with me,
when mud-splashed soldier beck
oned for the Colonel. A few minutes
after he returned, | noticed the
guard had been increased. and |
asked the meaning of it. Col. Chen
owith assured me there was no cause
for uneasiness.
If you remember, the pavement
was on a line with the dining room,
where the dancing was. We we're
sitting by a window; | heard a noise
above the din of the music and dane
ing and voices, and asked a guard
on the pavement what it meant. He
said, General McCoox is fighting

up to tell the others. when Col. Chen
owith urged me to let the boys finish
their dance, that they had had such
hard time and no pleasure for so
long, that they would get out of
town safely. But stepped in the
midst of the dancers, telling them
the situation, In a minute all was
confusion. We begged the soldiers
to leave quickly and let us go home
alone. But. with Southerner's usu.
al gallantry, they would see us safe
ly home before they left town.
We were too excited to separate,

night at Mrs. Leavel's. AS we drove

This was one of the experiences of

Soon after | reached the college,
Mr.. Waller asked me to keep a pack

had heard of raiding parties, who

One day | went to see Mrs. Waller

a package of very valuable papers,
that would probably cause him heavy
losses. No doubt it, seems strange

After the court house was burned,
General Lyon went to Eddyville to
