KuIa Pipe
And Water

p There is a scarcity of water at
the source of supply of the Kula
pipe line. It's either a famine
or a feast" in regard to rainfall.
In January the rain-record at the
water-head was 80 inches, but dur
ing February there has been a
continual drought.
The pipe of the system is laid
above ground and being exposed
to the weather, is constantly break
ing at the joints-not merely open
ing but breaking right through the
metal connection. As these breaks
are quite frequent, the loss Of
water is a serious one during dry
times.
When the line was first con
structed it was thought that the
wind would soon bury the pipe
with soil, but just the reverse effect
has taken place.

Shutting
d o w n

New ORLEANS, Feb. 10.-The
first chapter in the passing of the
sugar industry in Louisiana will be
written this week when the opera
ting head of no less than II large
plantations will receive instructions
not to proceed further with the
planting of next seasons crop.
Before January Is n large per
cent. of the planters will give up
the idea of going into the industry
for another season. They contend
it will be impossible for them to
compete with the price for which
Cuban sugar can be procured under
the free Tariff, which will become
effective in May of 1916.
Among the very first sugar plan
tations to close down will be the
Brousseau, the property of Chief
Justice White, of the United States
Court located in Lafourche parish,
lying between Napoleonville and
ThibodauX. 1t is understood that
the orders have been received by
Thomas Beary, general manager of
the Brousseau property, to discon-
tinue any further effort in planting
next seasons crop.
The Brousseau plantation is loca-
ted in one of the best -produc-
ing sections in the sugar belt. The
1910 crop netted 10000 tons, or
100000 pounds of sugar, and
10, 1000 gallons of molasses.
1t was reported last Saturday that
the New Home plantation in Ascen-
sion parish, Houmas central factory
in Ascension parish and the Armant
plantation in St. James Parish have
been ordered shut down after many
years of successful operation.
No less than a dozen other plan
tations will follow.
There are upward of 1 ,575 actual
owners operating in the sugar belt
of louisiana. They have under cul-
tivation between $50, 900 and 375, E
600 acres of land, which includes
the small 40 or 50-acre tracts rent
ed and worked by individuals. 1t is
conservatively estimated that there
are upward of 100000 persons en-
gagged in the fields and sugar mills
in the louisiana belt.
1t is a mighty high price the peo-
pie are paying for voting the Wilson
ticket. Many of the people in this
State will be ruined.

have to bend every muscle and use
every ounce of his strength to
annex the honor.
Duke took the lead for a fraction
of a second followed by George
Cunha and Robert Small. Quick
as fash, though, the San Fran
ciscan pulled away from his closest
opponent and within fifteen seconds
was out i'll front, a position he held
until the tape was reached, finish
ing fully yard in front of Kaha-
namollu and at least three yards in
front of Cunha.
AS the victor and the vanquish-
ed drew back from the finishing
line the pair trod water and Kaha-
namoku was naturally the first to
congratulate Small. As he climb
ed up the ladder to the pontoon
the crowd gave the new champion
royal Honolulu welcome. Not
because he was a champion, for
the crowd did not know that yet,
but more because he has taken the
measure of a world champion and
because he was a clean cut Ameri-
can winner.
When the announcer megaphon-
ed the time, OPS 3-5, one on the top
of Punchbowl could have heard
the cheering. AT that the crowd
did not forget Kahanamoku, and
he, too, came in for cheers as he,
walked to his dressing room.

Big Luau
For Mauians

On Wednesday last the Maui
baseball team arrived back from
Honolulu. The boys were given
a great reception as everyone knew
that the Mauians did their best ON
the Oahuan diamond. The team
played good ball although they
only won one game.
On Thursday evening a big luau
was rendered the boys at the home
of Major Bal. 1t was a great affair
and every minute was enjoyed.
The Maui boys are keen already
about the team for next year and
that is the right kind of spirit to
show.

On Saturday last, news by wire.
less from Honolulu was received OF
the death Of Mr.. 5. r. Dowdle, the
well known Maui architect.
For the past eight or ten months
Mr.. Dowdle has been under the
treatment Of Dr. Sinclair and for
the past ten days or more, his con-
dition has been critical, little hope
being entertained for his recovery.
Samuel r. Dowdle was born in
California about forty years ago.
After graduation from the Oakland
High School, he entered a promir
ent architects office to study the
profession. His health becoming
endangered, he came to Maui about
nineteen years ago, and has been a
local resident since that time.
lie entirely recovered his health
in Kula and began teaching school
there. He also taught iii Makawao
and finally became principal of the
.Kaupakalua School where he made
a marked success as a teacher.
In-health compelling him to
abandon teaching, he resumed his
old calling as an architect, and de-
signed some of the most ornate
structures on the island such as the
Episcopal church and railroad sta
ton, at Wailuku, the Masonic Tenn
pie and railroad station at Kahului,
the large store building, plantation
Office and railroad station at Paia,
and the Olinda residence of the Ii.
A. Baldwins-often considered the
most artistic home on the island.
In September 1911, he was mar
ried in Honolulu to Miss Sue Ham
ilton Of Medlord, Massachusetts,,
and built a pretty dwelling in
Makawao for their home. In less
than a year after marriage, Mrs.
Dowdle was suddenly killed by be-
ing thrown from a brake.
Mr.. Dowdle was member Of the
Kahului lodge of freemasons. He
leaves a mother, a sister and two
brothers in California, rs well as

While six thousand persons
swarmed along both sides of Ala
kea slip in Honolulu harbor yester-
day morning, says The Advertiser
of February 22, the best swimmers
i'll the world, many of them from
the Pacific Coast, the others
from Oahu, broke one worlds
swimming record, equaled another
world S record and smashed beyond
recognition four Hawaiian records.
Not a bad showing for a few hours
work. Included in it was one of
the big surprises of the day, the
defeat by a narrow margin of
Kahanamoku, Hawaii's champion,
by mainland boy heretofore but
little heard of in swimming events.
1t was the big surprise and not for
several moments after the exciting
finish did the immense throng who
had watched the swimmers battle
inch by inch for supremacy through
the ffty-yard water course, realize
that for once their idol had met a
competitor who could really test
his skill. 1t was a great race, one
which Kahanamoku can we'll ac-
knowledge was fairly lost and one
which the winner is entitled to full
credit for his laurels.
That Hawaii can lose with as
good grace as it can win was at
tested by the the cheering which
followed the announcement that
that Kahanamoku had lost the
fifty-yard event by a narrow mar
gin.
AS the meet of these swimmers
was held under the auspices of the
Hawaiian Branch of the A. A. u.

claimed to the world within a fort

Promotion
Committee
Report

has at the present time more visit
ors than the Islands have ever been
favored with before. Many are
here to spend the entire winter,
others contemplate remaining until
after the Carnival, o few who have
been here before have taken cot
tages and propose remaining indie
finitely, while a number come
down by one steamer to return by
the next, enjoying a three or four
weeks outing.
We are at last able to see the re-
suit of promotion work for the Ter
ritory which has been steadily going
on for number of years. At first
the efforts of the Promotion Com
mittee were directed towards bring
ing people here for the winter
season alone, but just as vigorous
campaigns are now being conducted
for summer and all the year round
travel with the result that there are
more tourists in Hawaii every day
in the year now including Mid
Summer than would have been con-
sidered a fair crowd during the win
ter season two or three years since.
One thing that is helping travel
materially is the betterment of
steamship service, the last addition
to our coastwise fleet being the
splendid ship Matsonia" of the
Matson Navigation Company with
the "Manoa" of the same line TO
come on the run next month.
Then the Oceanic S. S. Co., has
increased its excellent service by
opening up the Australian run and
adding the "Sonoma" and Ven
tura," which boats have been
thoroughly overhauled and are now
fine passenger steamers; then the
Canadian-Pacifc has added the
Niagara" to its fine fleet, and
while the Pacific Mail S. S. Co. has
not added any new ships to its line
a strong effort is being made to i'm
prove its service in every way so as
to appeal to the tourist. The stop
over travel on this line and via the
Togo Kishen' Kaisha's steamers in
creased during 1918, fully 500
over any previous year and promis-
es well for this year.
TO what extent does travel bene-
fit the Territory?
A low estimate is $1,000 per day
spent i'll Hawaii by every tourist.
As proof Of this statement, by the
last mail from London, we received
an order from Thos. Cook & Son,
to provide for the entertainment of
two ladies due to arrive from the
Orient in May or June, and were
authorized to spend $1,000 per day
for their entertainment for a Ieriod
Of ten days for each, and this in
addition to their own expenditures.
Our work in Japan has been
largely benefited by the opening of
the japanese Tourist Bureau, gov
ernment institution which handles
our folders, and is of great service
to our regular agents at Yokohama,
Mes,rs. Patten, Mackenzie & Com
pany, who have done and are doing
splendid work in turning travel this
way.

DUKE WINS FIRST EVENT.

1t was a case of hurry with the
breakfast dishes, for with the
meet scheduled to begin at nine
O'Clock one had to arise with the
sun and hurry to the naval wharf
if they wanted to be in OH the fun.
No one seemed to have a COM
plant, though, and by half-past
eight O'Clock the seats were we'll
filled on each side of the Waterway
with well groomed men, handsome
ly gowned women and smiling,
happy children. 1t was a typical
Honolulu crowd, good natured and
generous, and the vanquished were
as literally applauded as were the
victors.
Opening the program was 440-
yard dash, with Duke p. Kahana-
moku, Lincoln Johnson, H. Kruger
and George Keaweamahi entered

DUKE BREAKS OWN RECORD.

Third OH the program was the
100-yard dash, and here Kahana-
moku came into his own, for he
smashed his own record of O:55 is
in a straightaway and came within
one-fifth of a second of the world 5
tank record, established by himself
sometime ago.
With the crack of the gun Duke
went out in front, followed by
Small and George Cunha. Up to
the ffty-yard wire Kahanamoku
looked to be swimming under
wraps, but here he began picking
up and from this mark until the
end simply outdistanced his COM
petitors.
Small, who finished second,

worthy rival of Duke, from the
fact that he finished fully three

SENSATIONS NUMEROUS.

Sensations were many during the
meet, but the real sensation, that
which brought forth resouuding
cheers from nearly every throat Of
the thousands of spectators, was
the accomplishment of Robert
Small, formerly of Pittsburgh, but
now a San Franciscan, who defeat
ed the redoubtable Duke Kahana-
moku in the ffty-yard dash.
The San Franciscan covered the
distance in manner that left no
doubt but what he was the better
man yesterday. He won from the
worlds champion by yard i'll the
fast time of O:23 3-5 seconds, which
equals the worlds record held by
A. Wickman of Australia.
2 The mark also breaks Duke Ka-
hanamoku's record for the distance
a straightaway in open water of
O:24 and which was the American
and Hawaiian record.
Man to man there was little be-
tween the two. Each was 1.-THE of
body, strong of limb and trained
to the hour. The shade if any
thing was with the Hawaiian, for
it was in his home town and the
waters of Honolulu harbor had of
ten been used by the champion for
the exhibition of his skill as a
water man and it has been here
that he broke many of the records
swimmers before him had made.
START is PERFECT ONE.
Six men faced the starter at a
few minutes to ten O'Clock and as
each contestant was introduced to
the crowd he was heartily cheered.
Little delay was experienced in
getting the men away and as they
took the water, the spectators
awoke to the fact that before them
were six crackerjack fifty-yard

HOLD SERIES OF
COUNTY MEETINGS
County Agriculturalist and the
County Superintendent Wis
it School Districts

County Agriculturalist Lee M.
Lampson and County Superin-
tendent Wata Jones last week
completed a series Of industrial
and agricultural meetings in the
several school districts of the
county. The two county officials
were accompanied on their trip
by Prof. Newbill, head of the in
dustrial extension department
of the Washington state college.
Mr.. Lampson believes these
meetings have been the most
successful and most beneficial of
any series that has been held.
The attendance has invariably
been good. Miss Jones devoted
her time to the school work,
while Mr.. Lampson talked agri-
culture.
A feature of the meetings
were the industrial contests and
exhibits by the school children.
The best specimens shown in
these contests were assembled
in Prosser and sent to Tacoma
where they are on display this
week at the state school indus
trial exhibits.
