No SECOND CABIN
SPACE IS LEFT
ON VENTURA

No seeond-ciass passengers will be
taken to the coast from Honolulu in
the Oceanic steamer Ventura, here
from Sydney for San Francisco about
August H.
While no answer has been received
by the local agency OF the steamship
company, c. Brewer & Company, to
the request cabled earlier in the week
for permission to sell second-class
tickets on this trip of the Ventura, it
was announced by C. Brewer & Com
pany today that regardless of the Gee
anic company's answer to the request,
no second-class passengers can be car
ried as the second,eabin Is full.
Heretofore Brewer & Company, I'M
der instructions from the head office
of the line, have refused to sell second
class tickets between Honolulu and
San Francisco on the Oceanic steam
ers, but the request was made for spe-
cial permission with the idea OF re-
lieving passenger congestion.
The Ventura can take between 90
and 100 ,first-cabin passengers to San
Francisco. About $50 have. booked
for these accommodations. The steam

SAYS FEDERAL

IN ALE COURTS

THAT reported interview with Man
ager Hawk of the Marconi agency in
Honolulu, if true, shows that he is
reckoning without his host declared
Manager w. Young Motley of the Fed
eral Telegraph Company today. The
Marcchi company has no law suit OF
litigation of any kind pending against
the Federal company.
sWhen the Federal company first
started Marconi tried to drive it out
of business by tying US up in the
courts They filed suit against us for
alleged infringements on their patents
and we won every time the case was
appealed and the suit ended when the
United States Supreme court decided
in our favor. The litigation ended be-
fore the death Of our. former presi-
dent, Beach Thompson, which was
more than a year ago.
we got the despatch relating to
the filing of the Tesla suit against
Marconi merely as a matter for our
information at the local Federal office.
We asked the Advertiser II they want
ed the information and reporter
came down and got the message. Then
he interviewed Manager Hawk Of the
Marconi office and if the published in
terview with the latter is correct. then
Hawk is trying to draw us into the
affair. The Federal company is look
ing on in this litigation merely as an
spectator and is in no way
involved and will not be affected In
any way through the filing Of the suit
by Tesla.

Sky Periscopes.

In the cities of Europe that are
liable to be visited by Zeppelin air
ships the watchers on the lookout for
raiding aircraft have suffered from
stiff necks, and also eye strain from
long continued gazing at the heavens
to detect hostile aircraft, and to meet
this difficulty opticians have devised
special form of sky periscope. This
instrument is constructed on the same
general principles as those used by
submarines, and the type that has
been so widely adopted for use in the
trenches on land. The device is a sim
pie arrangement of mirrors that the
watcher can held in his hand, and
which enables him to scan the entire
vault of the sky while looking down
in a convenient and natural position.
1t has been found so convenient that
much better and more constant look
out is maintained.

More Use of Coal Rriuuets.

A substantial increase in the guam
tity Of coal briquets manufactured
and sold in 1914 is announced by the
United States geological survey.
A tendency to operate in large
units is illustrated in the statistics of
this collateral branch of coal mining,
the smaller and experimental plants
going out of existence and the new
enterprises being of greater capacity.
The production of briquetted fuel
in 1914 amounted to 144,63 short tons,
valued at S1,123,173, an increase COM
pared with 1913 of 62,776 short tons
in quantity and $115,S51 in value.
This shows the greatest activity in
coal briquetting in the history of the
industry.
The production in 1914 in the east
ern states increased from 62,244 short
tons, valued at $240,643, to 101, 1882
tons, valued at $273,O46; in the cen
trail states from 1927 tons, valued
at $36O,4O to SS,325 tons, valued at
$424,569, and in the Pacific coast
states from 46,32S short tons, valued
at $4O6,276, to 54,52S tons, valued at
$425,563.
Eight plants used coal-tar pitch for
a binder. four used secret binders and
one used petrolastic cement. No
binder is required in the briquettiag
of carbon residues from oil-gas works.

Cyclone Was Playful.

The great atmospheric freak that
has hit California for many months
struck the walnut grove on the Phil
lips ranch west of Pomona. 1t took
the form of a small cyclone and
played remarkable prank.
In one spot eight English walnut
trees were uprooted. The eight formed
almost perfect circle and the ninth
tree, which stood directly in the GEN.
ter, was left standing, although the
ground around it shows that the roots
were torn loose from the earth.
Forty-three mature walnut trees
were uprooted in the Phillips grove by
the same storm. The twister also lift
ed the cap from the manhole on top
of the Phillips ranch house, and a few
miles farther west it passed through
a big walnut grove, uprooting every
tree in one row and not turning leaf
on any of the others.-New York Sun.

FUNS FABLES UP TO DATE
This Is About the Literary Man Who
Insisted on Writing Just What
He Wanted to Write.

Once there was literary man who
decided to write for posterity. He re-
fused to be guided by what the editors
said the public wanted, but wrote what
he thought it ought to want
According to all the rules of the
game he should have starved to death
in very short order, but for once, the
rules didn't work
Did the public suddenly wake up to
the fact that a genius was in their
midst? And did the editors camp at
his door clamoring for til product of
his pen?
Oh, no, dear reader, nothing like that
at all.
A rich aunt died and left him half a
million dollars, and he kept right on
writing stuff that nobody wanted to
read.
Whether posterity will read it re-
mains to be seen.
