most OF the introduction, celebrating

Hawaii and to whom the atmosphere
real or fancied-of old Hawaii is
one of elusive and exotic romance.
The members OF the cast did very
well in play where each had TO Gre

TH|RTI-SEVEN THOUSAND
SIX HUNDRED AID
TEN DOLLARS
This l. the Amount of Money To BE
Spent Immediately In Making
Ready For the Arrival of
the Marines.
Occupation of Buildings Must Not
Interfere With the Regular Work
of the Yard" Are the Orders
of JOsephus Daniels.

Preparations for placing the build
marines in proper shape for their re
ception will go on rapidly now, since
all the preliminary work has been
completed. Buildings No. 10, No. IL
and the Marine Barracks, and also
Nos and 6, will be repaired at a
cost of $4,000 for No. 10, $2,500 for
No. IL, and $500 for No. 6. Thirty
five hundred dollars is TO be spent
on the marine barracks and $500 for
the officers quarters; $500 for
mess tables and bakery, $4,000 for
heating equipment. $4,000 for screen
ing; $4,000 is to be spent in the dis
tributing system. The officers quar-
ters, namely. B, c, d and Z, will be
allotted $500 for repiars.
In the orders sent out by Secretary
of the Navy Josephus Daniels, he has
| specifically stated that the prepara-
| tions to receive the marines into the
buildings above mentioned must not
| in any way interfere with the indus
trial activities of the yards and dock.
This is also significant that the navy
yard in all of its departments will be
in operation about the time the ma
rines come here.
The number of men which it is es-
timated can be comfortably quar-
tered in the buildings named is about
as follows, which allows about forty
square feet of floor area per man:
Marine Barracks-One company of
about 125 men.
Building No. 10-Two companies
of about 125 men each, on second
floor; separate kitchens and mess
halls for same, on first floor.
Building No. 11-One company of
about 125 men, headquarters detach-
ment and band of about so men on
second floor. Part first floor TO be
used for kitchens and mess halls.
while the remainder of the first floor
will provide ample storage room for
stores. commissary supplies and
clothing for about 500 men.
Building No. 1.-two companies
of about 125 men each on second
floor; separate kitchens and mess
halls for same on first floor.
1t is seen that such a distribution
will accommodate comfortably a reg
iment of six companies of about 125
men each, with a headquarters de-
tachment and band aggregating about
fifty men, and suitable accoumoda-
tions for the sick and for the hospi-
tai detachments. In case of emerg-
ency by use of buildings Nos. and
6, a total of four more companies
could be accommodated. and by con-
siderable crowding a grand total OF
about 1000 men could be quartered
here temporarily.

sress will not revive the stamp act
OF 1898 in its entirety. There Is an
uneasy feeling in the minds Of the lead
ers that many people throughout the
country disapproved the course of the
administration In beginning warlike
movements against Mexico. Therefore
they are reluctant at this time to de-
wise revenue measures that would lay
the burdens of the war directly on
practically every individual in the
land The stamp tax of 1898 was levied
on a multitude of articles. many Of

Indirect taxation will be invoked in
