 NEW LONDON FIRE Blaze from Automobile the Gauss Garaae, Stable and Storehouse Com pletely Destroyed

Fire, originating in an automobile, caused damage of approximately $15,- 600 to property in Brewer street at New London early Tuesday morning. The two and a half story brick garage, stable and storage warehouse, owned by John F. Baker of New Haven and leased by Silas Maxson, Jr., was prac- tically destroyed and a two story dwelling adjoining owned by MT and Mrs. Eugene F. McMoran was burned on one side. A general alarm was turned in by Fire Chief Stanners.
 Five pianos, several parlor organs. a hack. five carriages. a moving van and express wagon, 12 sets of harness and other articles owned by Mir. Max son, valued at nearly sS.000, which building, were consumed. The auto mobile, owned by the New London Auto exchange. which started the fire, was destroyed.
 Dr. J. E. Underhill. veterinarian. suffered a loss of $500. The Baker the residence of MT and Mrs Me Moran. MT. Maxson had no insur- ance on the personal property stored in the building. Dr. Underhin had no insurance and the burned automobile was not insured.
 Major Morris B. Payne was con siderably unnerved by the calamity of which he was the innocent cause. It all happened so quickly that he was well nigh at loss to tell just how 1t occurred. He turned away from the machine after cranlzing it and the next instant 1t was Q mass of flames. In his opinion a spark from the batteries reached the gasoline connection in the car and ignited the fluid. A similar accident occurred in Norwich garage he said, but they were more fortu- nate in what they first did to hold the fire. Major Payne and Frederick L. Goss, under the name of the New London Auto Exchange were the own CTS of the car which retails at $395.

GREAT NEED FOR 'Y'
BUILDING IN HlL0,
DECLARES PAUL SUPER

"A great many young men who come
to Honolulu from Hilo complain of
the lack OF decent place in the lat
ter city where they may spend their
leisure hours" said Paul Super, gen.
eral secretary of the local Y. M. c. A.,
when interviewed this morning con
corning the likelihood OF an associa-
ton at the Crescent City. There is
no question that there is a great need
in Hilo for a Y NJ. c. A. and no one
realizes this as much as do the Hilo
people themselves.
"The success of the association in
small towns constantly is being dem
onstrated. For instance, the small
town of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, with
population Of 5000. has a $4,000 as
ISOLATION building, and is carrying on
a splendid work. Mcpherson, Kan.
saa. town of 5000 population, has a
$4,000 building. Central City, Ne.
braska. with only 200 population, has
a new building which cost $4,000.
Many other instances could be cited
in which the association has been de-
clared success in cities not nearly
as large as Hilo. There are enough
of the better class of young men in
the Crescent City to make the work
there a good return for the invest
ment ! have talked over the matter
with Lorrin A. Thurston and HI. B.
Elliot, as well as other Hilo men,
and, while the present rGmor of a
building to be furnished by G. H Ath.
erton has no foundation in ract, there
is no doubt in my mind but that Hilo
one day will have Y. M. C. A.

ASYLUM AT CAPITAL

Dubbing an asylum for inebriates.
proposed to be established In the dis

house for the free storage Of the sur
plus products of the saloon, the fol-
lowing resolutions of William McKin-
ley circle, ladies' of the G. A. r., were
presented to congress, the senate plac-
ing them in ifs minutes:
Resolutions of William Mckinley
Circle, No. 2, Ladies of the Grand
Army of the Republic, protesting
against the proposed inebriate asylum
in the district OF Columbia.
whereas an effort is being made
to have the congress appropriate s75.-
90 for the purpose of erecting an in
ebriate asylum in our national capt
tai; and
whereas we, the members OF VIII
liam Mckinley Circle, No. 2. Ladies Of
the Grand Army OF the Republic, Of
Washington, ID. c., realize that an asy.
lum for drunkards will be an added
burden OF taxation on an already over
taxed nation, without any adequate
return or appreciable benefit to the
nation or to humanity until the insti.
tutions which make drunkards are re-
moved. and
Whereas the movement to estab-
lish an inebriate asylum is apparently
an effort on the part of the saloons
and those interested therein TO have
the drunkards removed to Tespeeta-
Bile (?) institution in order that the
Tuinous and degrading consequences
of their nefarious business may in
part be removed from the daily OBJ
servation of our patriotic citizens and
all true Americans who believe that
the saloon, the cankerous institution
eating at the heart of the nation,
should be wholly removed; and
Whereas, as 4 patriotic body, We
would consider it dissertation of our
flag to be placed over national inst1.
tuition of this kind and an admission
on the part of the government that it
is willing to have the saloon remain
with Us indefinitely and debauch its
citizens to swell its revenues; and
Whereas we believe that our hospi.
tails and reformato-ies are adequate
to properly care for the present sup
ply of drunkards If we would close
the industrial plants which manufac-
ture then: Therefore be it
Resolved, That we earnestly pro-
test against this $500 government
warehouse for the free storage of the
surplus products of the saloon; and be
it further .....
Resolved, That a copy of these
resolutions be spread upon the min
ute book of this circle and that copy
be sent to our senators and represen-
tatiVes in congress. ~ -

SAuERKRAUT
SEASON NOW
HAS ARRIVED
Cheap CabbagS in HAWAII Is
Held Responsible for New
England Dinners Now

Now is the time to make sauer-
kraut. II Is the season Of cheap cab
bage III Hawaii which fact may also
account for the present popularity OF
boiled New England Dinners" among
the eating house p:oprietOrs. For
the greater part OF the year cabbage
is a comparatively scarce commodity
in Honolulu. and the price is seldom
under two cents per pound wholesale,
and often as high as three cents. A
large part of the supply is imported
from the coast. During this month,
however. island cabbage is at it's best
in quantity and quality and the price
is also at its lowest point About one
cent per pound is the best the grow
ers can expect just nov, and some
cabbage has brought 2 good deal less
during the past week. This lower fig
ure was occasioned, however, by a
Wahiawa grower. who, unannounced,
dumped some 80 bags Of fine cabbage
upon giutted market, one day this.
week, and thereby demoralized the
market for a few days as far as cab
bage was concerned. r..
Among the biggest consumers of
cabbage are the soldiers in the vari.
Gus branches of the service stationed
here, and their commissary depart.
ments have not been slow to take adj.
vantage of present low prices. Sew
eral companies last week took al,
vantage and bought cabbage at So
cents sack and turned it into good
old-fashioned sauerkraut for future
consumption.
A commission man fro mthe Coast
who. is spending Il vacation in the
Islands, stated the other DAY that Ha-I
waiian cabbage is of a quality that
would command premium prices on
the mainland He said that If Homo
lulu consumers were discriminating
there would be little chance for i'm
ported cabbage as long as the local
product was available
