NEW SKIRT REVEALS
TURN-UP TROUSERS

LONDON, February 14.-Fasbionable
women in London are agitated over the
latest feminine mode, which is the trea.
ton of well-known Partisan couturier
of the Rue de la Paix. 1t is a walking
costume, consisting of q short coat and
a "wrapover'' skirt, fastening in front
over pair of trousers. The trousers
have the fashionable center crease and
are turned up at the ankle.
The first model of the new mode has
Just reached London, and representa-.
tive of the firm which is exhibiting IL
describes its advantages thus: :,
1T is really an invention which is
intended to make the current fashions
more convenient We have had slit
skirts so far, and the slit was the natu,
raj result of a tight garment, which
hampered the wearer 5 movements and
usually showed the feet clad in thin
silk stockings. The slit which shows
over these trousers is infinitely more
practical. The wearer is not so likely
to catch cold, and moreover the trou.
sers are made of the same material as
the skirt and are less easily distin.
guishable. Such, at least, is the opin.
ion of the smart Parisienne, Who have
adopted this style of skirt. ri t'#.
The skirt may be pinned together
at any height, so there need be moth,
ing startling about this tailor. made,
which can be adapted so that only a
pair OF turnedrup trousers is visible
around the ankles" .l..g. r.

stand play made by Mr.. Trent, Of the
land board, at Honolulu, In regard TO
the site asked for by the eanneiy peo-

Of the cannery company and the APP
praisers on account OF il. Immediately
the little land wolves joined in the
chorus, and have kept IL up since. &
In matters of this sort, il is well
to remember that there are two sides
TO question. The eannery company
has made no attempt to hog anything,
and, as far as we can see, have asked
for NO more than is required by the
legitimate and proper demands OF their
eannery business. This was evidently
the opinion of the appraisers, and is
the opinion of the land department at
Honolulu, which has gone into the mat.

plans to put In very large plant

frpit in that neighborhood. Besides,
there will be an Office building, store
houses, homes for employees of the can
merry and a part of the tract is to be
occupied by neat little cottages for
laborers who will work in the cannery
and the neighborhood, for the com
pany. When the whole thing is work.

none Of the land left for any other
purpose, and that every foot of IL has
been taken up for legitimate cannery

above assertions, knowing exactly what

TO say that the government is a great

be; and it is further willing to venture
that there may in a Sery few days be
another land commission in charge of

With the Elks colors, purple and

The trip of the visiting EIks which

The visitors did not spend an idle
moment from the time OF their arrival
in Honolulu February is until their de.

only complaint that was made was that
the exeursionists had not arranged for

Every Elk who has been in this party

Of the Western States are quickly real

certainly believe that Honolulu has
great future as tourist playground.
''Our Elks were pleasantly surprised
to see that the Young Hotel, where they
stopped, can compare with any first.

to the manager, Mr., Thiele, everything

SAVE ALL" SAVES
A GOOD DEAL
Sugar Conserving Patent Of h. s..
Truscott Working well at
Maltaweli.

There has recently been installed In
the factory Of the Hawaiian Sugar Com
pany at MAXWELL device known as a
Regulating save-all,n the invention
Of Mill Superintendent H. s. Truscoft.
This device is designed TO save as much
Of the sugar lost in entertainment rs
possible, and so far has given most ex-
cellent results.
This "save-all'' Is the outcome of
experiments conducted with the aid of
Mr.. Truscott Is entrainment deteetor, a
unique device which can be inserted
in any vapor pipe and will give optical
as well as (by analysis) chemical knowl-
edge Of what Is really occurring in the
yapor pines Of the evaporating ma
chinery.
The data obtained with this instfu.
ment Is revel, ion to the sugar world
and discounts many theories OF we'll
known scientific sugar men.
As Is we'll known, varying quantities
Of sucrose are lost by being drawn In
vapor form from the last effect OF the
evaporation set, these yapors being car.
ried away with the. injection water
which Is passed through the usual baro
metric condenser and run TO waste.
These losses are difficult to determine
and are governed by many factors in
the design and working Of " effects, y,
and have been the subject of much ar
gument between sugar men for many
years. 800
The Truseott Regulating Saye-all Is
a device, built to size, through which
the vapors coming from the evaporators
are passed before reaching the con
denser. The vapors are led through
water-jacketed sections, finally passing
out to the condenser. The vapors in
passing these sections or plates are
cooled sufficiently to permit the free
ing OF the suerose contained. This
suerose falls to the bottom of the save
all and is drained back to the eyapo.
ration through measuring tanks. The
amount of condensate containing s,,
crosse may be regulated to comply with
the rate of evaporation. ll
Up to the present time, ten DAYS
since installation, this save-all has done
remarkable work, justifyinq Mr.. Trus.
colt s application for letters patent, al.

Mr.. Truscott is to be congratulated
upon the successful outcome of this
