H|LO HAD 4 REAL
N----E|GHT INCHES
WAS A DAYS RECORD

HLO, December 90-Since last Feb,
ruary the heaviest rainfall which Hilo
has experienced was that for the TWEEN.
ty'four hours ending at soven clock
yesterday morning, when the precip-
itatiOn at Waiakea amounted to 8.3l
inches, while at Wainaku, the other
side of the city, it measured 7.85 inch
es. The result was flooded streets and
much Inconvenience in the lowlands,
where the streets were torrents and on
ly the new storm sewers prevented a
real food.
When the Glenwood train on the Ha.
wall Consolidated Railway, which leaves
HilO at half-past two, reached Fifteen
Miles it was found that such a torrent
was flowing over the tracks that il
would be dangerous to continue and the
train backed all the way to the Waia.
kea station with its passengers. Any
damage to the roadbed caused by the
foods will be repaired at once.
When Executive Officer Samuel Kau.
hane, who was to have taken the
steamer Monday afternoon to attend
a meeting of the budget committee in
Honolulu, got as far as Four Miles it
was found that the bridge was out and
the road flooded to such a depth that
it was impossible to get through. The
result was that Mr.. l6auhane missed his
boat and had to return to Kau.
Back of the Matano Hotel the resi-
dence district was flooded and many
of the Japanese families there made
ready to move out of their homes. But
the storm sewer saved this distriGt
from being entirely flooded and little
damage was done.
The Waikiki River was a wonderful
sight, for the torrent overlooked the
island above the lower bridge with a
roar that could be heard for blocks and
the river bed was a fOaming series of
rapids.

Facing Deportation
Japanese Cuts
Throat and Dies

Facing certain deportation as an un
desirable alien, Hudesuke Miyake, mer
chant, artist and connoisseur in Japa
nese brasses and bronzes, cut his throat
yesterday with a razor and allowed
himself 20 bleed TO death.
Miyake had struggled desperately
against the fate that the federal i'm
migration officials held over his head
and although the hearing OH the writ
of habeas corpus which his attorneys
had obtained from the court for him
was set for January, he wns convinced
that he would be forced to leave Homo.
lulu in disgrace, and to avoid this com
mited suicide.
The act was committed in the home
of his brother, Nerio, in Kalihi-kai
after Miyake had written two letters
one willing all his property to his son
n. Miyake and the other written while
he was detained in the immigration sta.

Miyake and bis son returned severa
weeks ago from Japan and were detain'

Gymnasium, Theater and Meeting
Room With Tennis Court
and Outside Track

HILO, December 90-Aotion has al
ready been taken by the Hilo Basket
ball League, Of which DR.. Y +. Col
Vile is president, and J. r. Zimmerman
is secretary, not only to secure a tract
of government land fronting on Kane
hameha Avenue, opposite the Volcano
Stables, but to start preliminaries for
the erection Of a fine building, which
will be for the use Of the public of
Hilo for basketball, dances, private
theatricals, conventions and luaus. II
Is also proposed to fit it up as q first
class gymnasium.
Last Monday the mail carried an ap
plioation TO Land Commissioner B. q
Rivenburgh from the officers Of the
league for a lease for twenty one years
on this strip Of land. The lot has q
frontage on Kamehameha Avenue OF
1000 feet, running back 400 feet.
The building itself, which is being
planned by Architect Arakawa, will be
eighty feet wide and 10 feet deep
with stage fifty by thirty feet. I'm.
der the stage will be dressing rooms for
men and women, as well as shower
baths and all the facilities for comfort
found In a high standard gymnasium
or tbeater.
Tennis and Track
On one side cf the building there
will be roadway leading to the rear
where there will be ample room for
the parking Of automobiles and where
there will also be a fine tennis court
all probably surrounded by a cindeI
track for running.
The principle which will be follow
ed by the members of the Basketball
League will be that the building should
belong to the people of Hilo and that
the league will be the holding associa
ton. For this purpose it will probably
be Incorporated rs the the Hilo Basket
ball League and Gymnasium Associa
ton.
To carry out this purpose of making
of the building public asset it is pro,
posed to have the board of trade, the
merchants committee and any other
civic association represented on the
board of trustens of the new associa,
ton, which will hold the lease.
