GOVERNOR HOLDS UP
HIL0 GAS FRANCHISE
TO PROTECT STREETS

Because the Hilo gas franchise
measure would give the company per-
mission to lay its mains down the

of Colorado to have approval OF the
measure held up until Charles r.
Forbes, superintendent of public
works, reaches Washington, and can
make clear to the senator the gov
ernor's advocacy Of using the double.
main method, one pipe on each side
of the street.
Governor Pinkham is holding up the
franchise because he believes the con-
crete, streets being laid IN Hilo will
be ruined II cut through The double
main system would make It unneces.
sary to cut through the streets, as

walk area instead Of the middle Of the

WAILUKU, Maui, July 13.-Sugar

Haiku homesteads. The idea has been
suggested before, but 1t is only now
that there Is apparently some real

weeks there has been harvested from
third of an acre of pineapple land
a fraction less than 13 tons Of Dem

The cane was grown on land Of the

with various varieties of cane in the
Haiku district, but the Demarara is
the first that has given evidence Of
being well adapted to the conditions.
The Hawaii experiment station Is
also interested in the possibilities of
cane growing In the Haiku district,
and has test paintings of number
of varieties, the results of which are
likely to be valuable later. #

While 1t Is not expected that sugar
will ever supplant pineapples in the
Haiku district, the need of some
profitable relation crop has come to
be recognized. and pineapple growers
are IN hopes that five or. six years in
cane would restore the land for pines
as well or better than permitting it
to lie fallow
In case the homesteaders and other
land owners in the dist. ict can be in
duced to go into the cane business on
sufficient scale, 1t is reported that the
Kahuluf Railroad Company will prob
ably extend its line another mile or
more, along the lines of a previously
surveyed route. This extension was
projected some four years ago, but
was abandoned on account OF the
financial depression at that time.

Report of Harry Murray for
Half Year Shows Financial
Gain for His Office

Collections in the water depart
ment have been increased SIS, 20,
in comparison with the first period of
last year, the cost of pump operation
reduced from S5,289.62 to $4,71O4O
and the number of privileges increas-
ed from 6740 to 1889. in the first six
months OF this year, according to a
report compiled by Harry Murray,
manager of the water works.
The collections for the first six
months of 1915 were $S5,O99. 80, for
the last, sos. 9S0.3S, and for the first
six months of tnis year, $163,S5S.59.
In a note to his report Murray ex-
plains that the increases are due to
collection of delinquent rates and the
readjustment of rates. Many house
holders who had originally been grant

on a large lot were found to have
torn down the old place and erected
a number Of cottages on their proper

No adjustment had been made for
years when Murray took office and
many thousands of dollars due the

Theatrical Fame Talks of
Future of Stage

Movies" have reached the apex of
success; the good oId-fashioned "le-
gitimate" is coming back again.
This is what Mrs. Albert Hayman
thinks. She is the wife of the we'll
known theatrical man, ALI .Hayman,
and sister-in-law of the famous Al
Hayman. Mrs. Hayman is in the ISL
ands for her first visit She is stay
ing at the Moana hotel in company
with a travelling companion, Miss
EVangeline Shutters, secretary Of the
Political League of Education Of New
York and identified with the Civic
Quorum there.
Faith in the stage, the living and
speaking actors; belief in her hus-
bands power and ability to bring the
real play back into it's own after the
movie craze abates has never died
in Mrs. Hayman. Although Hayman
would never let his wife into the
game" herself, saying he wanted his
home life as far different from the
stage as possible, Mrs. Hayman has
watched its growth and fluctuations.
She talked Interestingly for a half
hour of its possibilities.
Albert Hayman, known as "Alf,"
has long been associated with Charles
Frohman of international fame in the
world Of drama and is now one Of
the leading men in the concern,

Admits Permanence Of Movies
Mrs. Hayman does not belittle the
silent drama, however. and admits il
has permanent place, although not
such an inflated one as 1t now enjoys.
She says it has been a wonderful
thing, especially for such places as
Hawaii, Alaska, the. Philippines and
other rich American territories where
distances are too great for regular
troupes to, travel.
Mrs. Hayman says practically every
legitimate" actor has gone into the
movies to get some of the big money.
Maud Adams is the only great actress,
according to Mrs. Hayman, who has
stayed aloof. Mrs. Hayman says that
