Urge RUSH WORK

DAMAGED WHARF
Hafbor eoB,klissioners Apply
for Special Appropriate
Forbes Urges Concrete

The board of hsrbor commissioners
today made formal application, to Gov
ernor Pinkham for special appropri-
alton of $4,000 from his contingent
fund to be used in the immediate re-
pair Of the new Kuhio bay wharf at
Hilo, which received serious damage
from the big storm month ago. The
commissioners made q minute inspec-
ton of the damaged pier during their
tour of the Big Island ten days ago,
and in a detailed report to the gov
ernor Chairman G. r. Forbes estimates
that the repairs will cost approximate
ly $4,000.
The repairs, says Chairman Forbes,
are urgently needed, before another
tempest such as the last one visits
Hilo, for in its present weakened con-
dition the new pier probably would
suffer such further damage that the
eventual expense would mount well to-
ward the 100000 mark. =
Chairman Forbes report, the gist of
which is given below, says that more
than $4,000 is available at once for this
work, coming from the fund set aside
for wharf and harbor improvement and
repair on Hawaii. The business of
Strengthening Kuhio bay wharf is to
begin Immediately. with the $4,000 at
hand. When additional money is re-
ceived by the commission from the
loan fund the $4,000 taken from the
governors contingent fund can be re-
paid. The governor will take this sub
ject up at once with Auditor ]. H.
Fisher, to ascertain how much it will
be possible to take from his contingent
fund.

SEA.ROMANCEIS
FAST FADING ON
JESSIE FREMONT
New Party Enters Into Suit
Over Pearl voyaging and
Unlucky Schooner

A story with distinct flavor Of sea
romance although II did not have to
do with pirates or pieces or eight
was related IN the federal court before
Judge Charles F. Clemons this morn
ing when G. H. Jones took the witness
stand as an intervenor In hfs own be-
half In the damage suit which has
been filed against the owners of the
schooner Jessie Fremont, now lying in
this port in the custody of the United
States marshal.
The tale which precedes the arrival
in Honolulu of the Jessie Fremont is
long one, and the story as told by
her skipper, Capt. George Frair,. OF how
he fitted the vessel in San Diego some
two months ago for a pearliHg expedi-
tion to the Admiralty islands, is we'll
known locally. But the appearance
in the case this morning Of Jones adds
a new chapter, and an interesting one,
to the narrative which has grown out
of the fling of libel against the
pearling vessel by Charles Howard, 8.
r. Palmer and Arthur Fields.
Jones told story Of how, in San
Diego. he had entered into an agree
ment with captain Frair and the own
ers of the Jessie Fremont to equip
the vessel with the necessary para
phernalia and provisions for the yoy-
age He dwelt at length upon the
hopes he had held In the success OF
the expedition. and told OF the buckets,
with long lines attached to them, with
which he alleged he and the other
members Of the crew were going to
scoop the pearl shells from the bot
tom of the ocean.
He had spent $109.35 in San Diego,
he said, in putting food and tackle
aboard the Fremont, and an itemized
account of wnat he sale was the money
he had spent showed that, on several
occasions, he had financially assisted
Captain Frair through the medium Of
small loans.
Once, when Captain FraIr was cali

DOUBLE MYSTERY
 AT THE 10 ELL

Not satisfied with giving its patrons a Soc show for 15c the management of the Lowell will, tonight. give a double mystery program, one in real life and the other taken from real life and portrayed upon the Lowells new screen. The Great Alexander is pack ing the house every night and tonight will be assisted by "Chanler Rao, Criminal Expert" a mystery story. in which the Hindu magician, out of grat- itude to his physician. discovers who stole the diamond cluster ring. The plot Is unique and has an air of mys- tery about it that will hold the atten- ton of any audience closely.
 The other pictures on this program in which the Great Alexander predom- mates, are two corking good comedies. "so Long Count" a dandy farcial com edy, and "A Trip to the Moon" as the title suggests, that is really a very clever trick picture. It will please. and one wonders at th emethods adopt ed by the director and cameraman to get the natural looking effects lt is highly amusing and fun of comedy. MT.
