Pearl Harbor, to see If we cannot Sc
cure this cooperation, which would be
of great benefit to the islands as well
as shipping in this vicinity"
The meteorologist hopes to get
daily reports from all steamers with
in range of the Pearl Harbor station,
giving their barometer readings, tenn
perature and state of the weather; If
stormy, the direction and velocity of
the gale. The latitude and longitude
of the vessel will be asked for with
the readings, and the reports will
then be plotted on a block map of this
section of the Pacific. In this way
the bureau can determine positively
whether the storm will affect Hawaii
and also, what is more important,
when it will hit the islands. -.
The local weather bureau will also
communicate with officials of the Mat
son Navigation Company to see if
daily readings can be had from steam
ers of this line, plying between Homo
lulu and San Francisco. AS all steam
ers having radio equipment are receive
ing the daily readings, it is believed
they will be quick to do their share
in return for the valuable weather in
formation they will get daily. The
Great Northern will also be asked to
cooperate in furnishing daily readings
while on the sea.

GOOD OLD Demon
FURNISHES HALF
OF POLICE WORK
Study of Police Court Cases
Furnishes Clear Proof of
Liquor Evil

Half OF the arrests made last week
by the Honolulu police department
might be traced directly to alcohol
There was a total OF 1876 names booked
and Of these 40 were up for drunken
ness. Thirteen more were charged
with assault. which is usually result
OF booze, and any number were
booked for using threatening and pro-
fame language, encouraged by drink
If the annals Of the police we're to
be haphazardly inspected for the last
seven days any number of pathetic
cases could be discovered in which
the tilted bottle played a leading role.
One would find an old woman with
watery eyes, bowed before the Judge,
begging for leniency because she had
used bad language; there would be a
raving maniac earted off to the insane
asylum, a whisky wreck; here is 10
year-old man, crazed with drink, who
required two policemen to take him to
jail; there is Japanese whose over
loaded capacity for sake causes him
to fall from Rapid Transit car and
take a trip to the emergency hospital.

so inclined that would repeat one en-
Urgency case after another that had
strong scent of liquor. Il
Because he was too heavily loaded
with alcoholic stimula0ts, according to
the police, one man nearly drowned
at Waikiki beach. DR.. Aver was called
and reported the near victims first
request upon resuscitation was for
drink. Two Chinese came to be treat
ed for wounds caused by flying brick
said to have come from the hands of
two drunken soldiers, and so the en-
Urgency calendar might be continued
indefinitely. .- -.
One of the common pitiful sights of
the weak which is reported by W.. P.
Fennell was the discovery by the
liquor inspector of four Russians in
tiny, squalid room of tenement
house Friday night, SO far under the
influence of liquor that they appeared
to be dead Their apartment boasted
no furniture; rot even chair or a
bed took from the discomfort of the
place. It was just hole into which
they had crawled with their jug to
fall unconscious when the last drop
was drained. Fennell says he hopes
he may never again see such awful
expressions as those on the faces of
the four men. +. ....:..
