business that is not receiving the

There is the sugar crop, the pineapple
crop and the tourist crop. This is one
OF the big industries Of the islands,
and this crop brings thousands Of
dollars to Hawaii every year. There
are instances of single tourist who

on one visit"
James Mott. Jr. pointed ont that
inasmuch as there is so much pros
perfty and more money the laborers
and mechanics should receive more
money, owing to the higher cost of
living. He said that although there
is increased prosperity on the islands,
the wages Of the laborers, except on
plantations. have not been increased
Richard Quinn of the U. s. engin-
GERS office stated that the work Of
investigation on the currents and
swells on the harbor at the Kuhio
wharf is going along, and that a re-
port would be ready perhaps In the
next 80 days. Albion Clark spoke on

N. G. OFFICER
CALLED TO VAR
FROM VACATION
Major CoM Arrives on lurline
and Departs on MatSonia
For Mexican Border

He sailed into Honolulu and then
sailed right out again. Such was the
experience today of Maj. Donald Cowl
of the New York National Guard and
his wife, who were on their honey
moon to Honolulu on the Matson
steamer 4ariine but are now steam
ing rapidly back to San Francisco on
the Matsonia to answer the call of
war. .<-.~. ".=
Two weeks ago Mai. Cowl, a
wealthy New York business man, was
married and started for Honolulu to
spend his honeymoon. Everything
was lovely until three days out of San
Francisco when the God of War got
busy and started trouble down on the
Mexican border, and on the heels of
that President Wilson called the state
national guards to arms. Mai. Cowl
was rudely awakened from his dreams
by a wireless ordering him to join his
regiment on the border.
What Mai. Cowl said when he re-
ceived the message has been strictly
censored by the war office, but orders
are orders and he was forced to inn
mediately get busy and arrange for
transportation back to San Francisco.
He wirelessed to the Canadian-Austra-
lasian office here and to the T. K. K.
office but no boats were leaving for
several days and then word CAME that
the Matsonia would leave the same
day that the LlIrline arrived at Homo
lulu Preparations were immediate
~ made for the transfer and as the
Lurline, came steaming into the har-
Dor this morning the major and his
blushing bride were swung overheard
into q waiting launch and rushed
aboard the Matsonia as she slid from
her berth at Pier Is. 1t was estimated
by Purser p. II. Leyey that Cowl
spent over 500 In arranging for
transportation.
This sudden stopping of the honey
moon and the fact that they would
not be able to set foot on the island
of Oahu greatly amused but aroused
the sympathfes Of the other passen-
gers on the Luriine and as Maj. Cowl
and hts wife left the Lurline to catch
the Matsonia they were showered
with rice and confetti.
It is hoped that Maj. Cowl will re-
ceive many medals for bravery on the
border in compensation for the brok-
en- HONEYMOON.

A municipal garage would save the

Last year maintenance and repairs
of the city's IS machines cost about
$4,000 This figure can be reduced

ISRIHARA TAKES
PICTURE.BRIDE'
WHO WAS STOLEN
Kauai Japanese Gets Girl Who
Had a Temporary
Husband

Shoden Ishfhara, whose picture
bride" was stolen from the U. 8. i'm
migration station last Saturday, took
her back yesterday and the bogus
husband who substituted himself at q
psychological moment-for him-ap-
parently is going to go scot-free.
The outraged husband was not out
ragged enough in feeling to call his
countryman, Toyama, out for a duel,
and so far the immigration officials
have made no known move to arrest
Toyama for the ruse by which he stole
the pretty 1S-year-old ushi from the
u. 8. station.
Inspector Halsey would not say
this morning whether Toyama would
be arrested.
Toyama, who was the husband OF
Ushi for about two days and half,
is back at his plantation work at
Heeia, according to information form
Japanese sources today. Ishihara and
his wife were at the Komeya Hotel
this morning, friends said.
Ishihara told a Star-Bulletin report
er today that he has taken back his
wife and they win hive happily here
after. He says he will take her TO
his home on Kauai. Though apparent
ly angry at Toyama. his wrath does
not appear to be sufficient either to
reject his wife or take steps to punish
the man who stole her before the
American ceremony was performed.
U. s. Officials Retieent.
When asked for a statement at noon
today, Richard L. Halsey, y. s. inspec.
tor in charge of the federal inmigra,
ton station, said he Is not In posi-
ton to say anything about the case.
Halsey refused to say whether his
office has sworn out warrant against
Toyama for classifying the marriage
records. "The matter Is still under
investigation, was all he would say
for publication. IS
According to federal authorities, the
u. s. immigration station here has
positive evidence that the girl In the
case, Ushi Ishihara, wrote to Toyarna
after she landed here, and that both
know each other very well. Ishihara
says Toyama is relative of the girl
From an authoritative source it was
learned today that instead of abduet-
ing the girl, Toyama married her be-
cause Ishihara had written her not
to come to Honolulu, as he did not
want her to become his wife, having
changed his mind.
New Angle to Story.
The girl, according to this version,
after she received the letter from the
intended husband telling her not to
come to Honolulu, wrote to Toyama
from her home in Japan and told him
how matters were and that she did
not want to marry Ishihara, either.
Toyama is said to have replied In a
letter advising the girl to come to
/ Honolulu anyway and marry him If
she did not like the idea of marrying
her intended husband according to
schedule.
The girl came to this city, after
which Toyama showed up at the i'm.
migration station, claiming to be Ishi
kawa or Ishihara Had he given his
rightful name and explained to the
immigration authorities how matters
stood, there would have been no trou-
BILE and they could have been mar
ried without breaking any immigrl
tion laws, 1t is said.
