ELIMINATING THE kicks /"

Hilo'S determination to work together and
pull together for the tourist future Of the island
is evidenced in the press comment from the Big
Island concerning the Great Northern's latest
stop there. 1t will be remembered What the
Great Northern passengers reached here with
many complaints oh delay, unsatisfactory seq
vice. from the dock to the volcano and back,
etc Instead of denying that there was any
ssnch trouble, the Hawaii Herald prints the
s1ews-ef-the complaints and draws attention to
the necessity for better arrangements III the
future.
With the completion of the I1lo breakwater,
most of the transportation troubles can be
overcome, for all begin with the carrying of
passengers ashore in boats instead OF landing
them direct at the dock The quarantine in
spection is a matter OF Importance, and perhaps
the long delay-c0stly to llilo and harmful to
the Great Northern-wll stir up adequate ac-
ton. The periodical coming OF the Great
Northern with several hundred passengers
makes il imperative that the health inspection
service at IIilo be augmented.
All of these problems Iiilo can and will solve
by pulling together Honolulu has just as much
interest as the Crescent City in seeing that the
Great Northern passengers are given plenty OF
time on the Big Island and come away entirely
satisfied. This city gains nothing permanently
profitable from visitors dissatisfied at the be-
ginning Of their trip Hilo and the island Of
Hawaii have the goods in abundant measure
and when the Hilo visit and the trip to the
Volcano are systematized so that the tourist is
pleased every minute, there will be no dis
satisfaction. i

The official press agents of the Allies seem to
think an effective method of waging war is by
stories concerning the health of various mem
bers of the German royal family. The Crown
Prince has been killed so often that his sudden
demise no longer creates any sensation at all,
and most of his royal brothers have been either
slain at the front or died in hospitals from
wounds or disease Their miraculous resur-
rections apparently did not daunt the Allied
rumorologists in the least for out of the
Kaiser's carbuncle these official gossips de-
veloped malignant cancer which was sup
posed to have brought Emperor Wilhelm to the
point of death. Detailed reports of his visits
around Berlin on Saturday are sent out by the
Berlin official news agencies to counteract
these rumors but the Allies will doubtless con-
time to insist that the Kaiser is about dead.

AMERICANS UNDER ARREST
Clash Said to Be Due to Con-

&C.
Ask That No More Landings
Be Made.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-Com.
munlcatlons from the Mexican embas-

clash between a boat crew from the
gunboat Annapolis and Carranza SOL

ing that in the present tense situa-

circumstances, were delivered to the
state department today by an embassy
secretary.
The secrtary sought an engagement
with Secretary Lansing for the am

no appointments for the day.
According to the Mexican version.
confusion came after an attempt to

made. The embassy presented a re-
port from the military commander
at Mazatlan, General Mezto telling of
the incident, accompanied by instruc-
tions from the Mexico City foreign Of
flee urging that the Americans be kent
aboard their ships.
General Mezto's report said the men
landed at Mazatlan were marines, but
as the gunboat Annapolis, the only
ship known to be stationed there has
no marines aboard, it is presumed the
bluejackets were involved HThe Mezto
report told the story as f5llows:

the crowd. Carranza soldiers returned
the fire and the boat withdrew leav-

Brunswick Riflemen Hold Rec
ord That Few Companies
Can Equal.
OLDEST COMPANY IN STATE
Marched Away the First Time
In the Sixties and Fought
Until Close of the War-Few
Veterans Remain to Tell the
Story.

When the Brunswick Riflemen
march away for Macon in a few days,
in response to President Wilson's or
ders to state troops. it will be one of
the few, if not the only military com
pany in the state, that has answered
three calls to arms in fact there are
but few organizations in the south
that will have record of having been
mustered into service three times.
The local company marched away
the first time back in the sixties, re-
cruited to its full strength, returning
after the civil war with less than half
its original members. There are now
in Brunswick two or three of the old
Confederate veterans who saw service
with the Brunswick Riflemen in the
sixties.
After the war the company remain
ed intact, and for years and years the
Brunswick Riflemen has been The old
est military organization in the state
of Georgia.
At the outbreak of the Spanish
American war the company, many of
the members then being sons of those
who marched away in the sixties, re-
sponded to the call and though the
company did not see any actual war,
still it was ready at all times. The
company was captained at that time
by Major r. E. Dart now of Jackson
vile, who was a son of one of the
members, Capt. Ubams Dart, who
marched away with the company in
the sixties, returning as an officer. The
lieutenants in the Spanish-American
war were E. L. Stevens and +. A.
Dunn, though the latter, when the
company was mustered in at Griffin
was transferred to another Georgia
company.
Thus it will be seen that when the
Riflemen respond to the call Of Pres
ident in few days it will be the third
time in the history of the organization
that the men have marched away from
Brunswick ready for battle
