CAPT. J. A. NACAULAN A big
! turning basin for Honolulu harbor, as
proposed at the recent session OF the
commission, would doubtless be OF
| much assistance in the handling OF
large vessels at the port.

charge CT a large Part OF the fuel oil
! brought by the Union OIL tanker San.
, ia Maria to Pearl Harbor the first YES

the big American. Hawaiian freighter
Mexican this morning marks the mi
tial vessel in the tdTrectskew IOrkHa-
wdiian service which is destined TO
continue throughout the heavy part
| of the sugar season.
-HARBOR OFFICER CARTER:
| Despite the constant arrival OF deep
| sea sailing vessels few beaCh-cOmberS
are found at the port. The masters
of recently departing schOOners and
ships for the mainland have met with
difficulty in securing competent crews.
| JACK BLISS LOT, the. Venice I'll
| gersl: This Honolulu system OF base
ball by injunction is a new wrinkle,
strictly Hawaiian in theory. but it ceT-
! tainIy doesn't boost the great national
game.
-LORRIN A. THURSTON: In the
appointment Of an outdoor commit
tee of the Promotion Committee,
thoroughly believe that the Promo
| tionists have filled a lCng-felt want in
this community. Now to work.
| p. T. PHILLIPS: Passengers in
the steamer Mauna kea will be given
an excellent opportunity of witnessing
the lurid reflection cast upon the sky
from four eruptiVc Craters on the
mountain of Mauna Loa. The spec
: tacle can be seen 10 advantage from
kawaihae.
| CAPT. ARTHUR McDUFFIE: H0
, nolulu at the present time is remark
! ably free from IUrglaries and even
u petty sneak thieVery. The arrest and
! conviction of a dozen offenders dur

in the removal of this class of gentry
| from the city streets.
FREDERICK w. KLEBAHN:
With ten German steam or sailing YES
sells warbound at the port OF Honolulu
the staff connected with the shipping
department does not ind time hang
ing heavy upon it's hands. The regu-
lar visit of hall dozen Pacific Mail

member the last eruption. and lava
flow from old Mokuaweo~ee. was
then purser in the steamer Mauna

! Kau coast of the island of Hawaii.
DONALD H. GILMORE: We un-
derstand that the Oceanic liner Ven
tura in leaving the mainland for Ho-
nolulu and Australia was filled with
passengers and cargo. The big reduc-
| ton in the homeward steaming time
is expected to rebound to the already
established popularity of the service
to and from the Australian common
wealth.
COLLECTOR NJ. A. FRANKLIN:
Special attention will hereafter be
paid by inspectors and guards con-
nected with the federal customs staff
| with view of experimenting those
who would attempt to smuggle opium
from transpacific steamers. This de-
partment has recently made some i'm
portant arrestss4ard confiscations of
the drug.

ton Committee has just received
new supplyfof the latest literature

dents wishing such literature are re-
quested to call at the rooms of the

short while longer to serve on the
| board of supervisors, so in that time
I'm going to tell the real names CT
some of my pet aversions, such as
the Queens hospital, F. NJ. SWarzy
and others.

i idea of the social workers Of Homo
lulu to hold legislation conferences

bills presented for consideration can
be embodied in a report from which
will be derived the measures which
