HOuSekeeperS viii
Have Part In Fair
Department of Domestic Arts Planned
-lnquiriesFrOm mOutsideISIands-
Government Will Probably Exhibit

Owing to the terrific rain storm
which ragged all day Monday, the meet
ing of the Maui fair committee, an
nojnced for that afternoon, was post
poned. 1t will probably be held some
time next week.
great deal of interest is being
manifested in the plans for the first
Maui fair, which will be held at
Thanksgiving time, and it is very
certain that surprisingly large
number of exhibits of all kinds will
be gathered together at that time
One of the departments which should
attract much attention is the house
hold, or domestic arts department,
which is being planned. In this would
be shown various kind of home pro
ducts, including cookery, household
decoration, and fancy work. A number
of ladies have already been inquiring
as to the scope of this department
with view to preparing exhibits for
it.
Several letters have also been re-
ceiVed from Honolulu business houses
indicating that they will be glad to
make exhibits OF various products, if
permitted to do so. As il is the i'll
tentiOn to encourage exhibits from all
sources, and to bar none on account
of origin, it is believed that a splendid
showing of machinery and other sup
plies will be arranged for.
The public health department and
the local branches of the department
of agriculture are planning to get
in touch with the Washington officials
with view to having both the federal
health service and the department of
agriculture send to the fair the splen-
did exhibits which they keep for such
purposes. These will include a series
of interesting moving picture films
and lantern slides, and according to
the plans of the committee would be
shown in one of the local picture
houses, or on an outdoor screen, as a
feature of entertainment, which it is
proposed having for the evenings dur
ing the time the fair is in progress.

County Asked For
Small Part Of Cost
Supervisors May Act on New High
School Proposition SOOn-PatrOns
Would Pay Almost All

One of the matters of particular in
terest which will probably come before
the meeting of the board of super
visors next week, is the proposed new
building for the Maui Central High
school. The plan which is to be laid
before the board is that the county
shall furnish $4,000 to be added to the
sum of $25,OOO or $4,000 which will
be subscribed by citizens interested
in the school. 1t is estimated that the
new building should cost in the neigh
borhood of $4,000. The present
highschool building at Hamapuapoko,
while but three years old, is declared
to be totally inadequate and unsuited
to school purposes. 1t is badly lighted
poorly ventilated, and unsuitably ar
ranged.
Another matter of considerable in
terest which must be decided is
whether or not the location of the
school should be changed from Hama
kuapoko to Paia. 1t is understood that
some of the patrons of the institution
favor this, despite the fact that the
present school grounds at Hamakua-
poke are amply large for the new
structure, and are conveniently locat-
ed

Pine Growers May
Get Better Terms
Sure of Better Prices and Conditions
IfCOntraCts Planned Can Be Agreed
TO-PrOft Sharing Idea

The committee of the Haiku Farm
ers' Association, which was appointed
some time ago to take up the matter
of a more satisfactory contract with
the canning companies, and which
has spent a great amount of time and
labor on the matter, has prepared an
outline report of what the two com
panies are likely to be willing to do
in the way of contracts. and has ask
ed the homesteaders to state whether
either plan would be acceptable to
them, and how many acres each is
willing to plant, provided the con
tracts can be secured substantially on
the basis indicated.
The propositions of both the Haiku
Fruit and Packing Company and the
Maui Pineapple Company are believed
to be much more equitable than here
toforC. although probably not so good
as had been hoped for.
Following is an outline of the salient
features of the two plans, drawn up
for comparison:

West Wing Break
Water Gets Start
Important Kahului Project Seems Sure
to Pass Senate -. News Comes as
Pleasant Surprise

The MAUI NEWS wireless report
last evening of the favorable action
of the senate committee on the bill
for the west wing of the proposed
Kahului breakwater, was received
with much satisfaction by Maui peo-
pie generally.
1T means a lot to Maui, if that
bill gets through" declared William
Walsh, superintendent of the Kahului
Railroad Company, who has been one
of the hardest workers for the project.
1--WE had scarcely dared hope that 1t
would receive any action at this ses-
sion" he continued, "on account of
the press of war and other matters,
and the policy of retrenchment. It's
mighty good news"
The west wing breakwater will
make Kahului a real harbor even
when the wind hauls into the north.
At present under this condition the
harbor is sometimes untenable for
vessels. But besides this it will not
cut off the current which at present
sets into the harbor, and makes it
necessary to spend about $4,000 per
year for dredging sand thus carried in.
This regular job of deepening the har-
Dor has just been completed, and it
will be but a few months before it
must be done again.
The projected breakwater has long
since had the strong endorsement of
government engineers, and its need
was fully appreciated by at least
some of the members of the congress-
ional party which visited the Islands a
year ago 1t will complement the
present breakwater, leaving but a
narrow channel entrance for ships,
and practically enclosing the whole
harbor from the sea swells. Besides
making the harbor perfectly shelter
ed and reducing the cost of mainten-
ance, it will also make available for
wharves and shipping a large area not
now practicable for the purpose.
1t is understood that 100000 to
$250,000 was to be asked for, though
whether this was to be made as a
single appropriation is not known
here. 1t is believed that the action
of the senate committee practically
guarantees the passage of the mea-
sure by the upper house, though it
still has the gauntlet of the House to
pass.

Two Autos Struck
By Railway Train
Both Collisions at Same Point Within
"a HOurS-CarS Smashed But No
One Seriously Hurt

Mrs Harold w. Rice was painfully
but not dangerously injured last Fri
day evening when her automobile was
struck by train on the Kahului Rail
road, at the crossing between Spreck-
elsville and Paia. That both she and
her chauffeur, Morihara, were not kill
ed, is considered almost a miracle
The automobile was badly smashed
up.
Within less than "a hours from the
time Mrs. Rice met with her accident
an automobile in the rent service own
ed and driven by NJ. Nashiwa. of Paia
and bearing as a passenger Miss Oar
roch, trained nurse of Honolulu, was
struck by train at the same crossing
point. While in this instance a wheel
was torn from the auto, and the front
part otherwise badly damaged, neither
occupant was injured. Miss Darroch,
who had just left private patient at
the Paia hospital, was on her way
about 2 o'clock on Saturday after
noon to Kahului to take the Claudine
for home, when the accident happened.
She was picked up a few minutes after
wards by Mrs. w. H. Field, who hap
pened that way, and was driven to
lnt DOdJ.
Considerable alarm was felt for
some time on account of Mrs. Rice's
injuries, which consisted of a number
of severe cuts from the broken glass
of the windshield. She also sustained
divers bruises. However, following
an X-ray examination of her ankle for
a possible fracture, it was found that
she was suffering most from shock,
and she was soon well on road to re-
covery. The Japanese driver sustain
ed number of minor cuts and bruises
also.
Although this is the first accident of
the kind that the Kahului Railroad
has had for a number of years, the
point where the two collisions oc-
cured is a dangerous one, owing to
the difficulty of automobilists not see
ing the railroad until they reach the
crossing. Owing TO the amount of
travel on the road in question, it
would seem highly desirable that
Waterman, or some system of signals
for approaching trains should be de-
ised for the place.

Storm Again Cuts
Off Water Supply

The unusually heavy rain on last
Monday again changed the course of
the lao stream at the waterworks in
take, and as a result the upper sect
ions of Wailuku were without water
during most of Tuesday and Wednes-
day. The temporary repairs made last
January We're washed out, and it was
not until Wednesday afternoon that
big force of men were able to again
make connections with the elusive
stream. The flow in the stream is
still shifting, according to County Eng
ineer Cox, and it will probably take
constant work for some time to keep
water flowing into the reservoir
With the completion of the contract
let last week to the Howell Engineer
ing Company by the loan fund com
mission for the extension of the pipe
line further up the valley, the present
difficulties will probably be ended

Reinhardt Damage
Case Nearing End
Motion For NOn-Suit Denied Homo
lulu Doctor to Show X-Ray Pictures
of Plaintiffs Injuries Tomorrow

The $4,000 damage suit of Charles
Reinhardt VS.. the County of Maui oc-
cupied all of Thursday i'm the second
circuit court, and will be taken up
for final disposition again tomorrow
morning. The case was recently in
the supreme court, on demurrer by
the county on ground that the terri
tory is not liable for the non-feasance,
or negligence through which Rein
hardt was hurt by walking into a
washout in the county road at Hama,
some months ago; the higher tribunal
overruling the demurrer.
AT the trial yesterday Judge Edings
overruled a motion of County AttOr-
ney Bevins for a non-suit on grounds
that the plaintiff had recourse in the
workman's compensation act; that the
county supervisors had no formal
knowledge of the damage to the road ;
and that the condition of the road
should have been known to the plain
tiff as it was generally known Of
throughout the neighborhood.
The case was continued until Sat
urday on motion of Case and Vincent,
for the plaintiff, in order that DR..
Straub, of Honolulu, may be secured
as a witness. 1t is understood that
the physician has a number of X-ray
pictures showing the various fractures
and other damage which Reinhardt' s
bony structure sustained by his fall.
Among the witnesses examined yes

Denies Ferreira
Has Or Will Resign
But Sheriff Claims Resignation Was
Made and Accepted - Cummings
or Sylvia Slated For Job

John Ferreira, who was suspended
two weeks ago as deputy sheriff, by
County Sheriff Crowell, on account of
charges which had been preferred
against him, handed in his resignation
on Monday evening and the same
was accepted by the sheriff. Sheriff
Crowell made a statement to this eff
feet to the MAUI NEWS on Tuesday.
Today Eugene Murphy, who states
that with Lorrin Andrews, of Homo
lulu, he is representing Ferreira as
attorney, stated to the NEWS that
Ferreira has not resigned and has no
intention of so doing "The case is
a put up job" declared Murphy.
"There will probably be a fight but
we are ready for it," he added.
"The deputy could be removed by
the sheriff for cause-but the charges
against him will fall iat-theres moth
ing to them"
Sheriff CrOwell states that the de-
putty made his resignation verbally,
turning over at the same time the
property of the county in his posses
sion. "A bluff" is the way he CHAR
acterizes Murphy's declaration.
Deputy Sheriff Ferreira, it will be re-
membered, was charged by a Japanese
prisoner who had served a Jail sent
ence, with having failed to return
about SIS belonging to him when his
sentence was ended. Before the mat
ter could be Investigated by the
sheriff, the Japanese disappeared, but
was traced to Hawaii, from whence
he was brought by Frank C. Sylvia,
police clerk, who was sent after him.
once, and that he expects to make
the announcement the first of the
week. According to well
authenticated report, the choice
of the sheriff will lie between
George II. Cummings, and Frank
sylvia, both of whom are popular and
are believed to be well qualified for
the position. Cummings was formerly
connected with the police department,
Sheriff Crowell, who is far from well,
on account of a serious ear affection,
will probably take an extended rest
and course of treatment as soon as
he has placed the affairs of his office
in the hands of the new deputy.

Election Certificate
Awarded to Raymond

DR.. J. II. Raymond's election as
delegate to the democratic national
convention, was confirmed at a meet
ing of the county democratic commit
tee held last Saturday night. DR..
Raymond was given the disputed cert
ificate of election after the matter
had been gone over at some length.
Word comes from Honolulu that this
decision is far from satisfactory to
the McCandless wing of the party, and
that the territorial central committee
has been appealed to reverse the deci-
sion. Dr. Raymond has indicated that
in case the territorial committee
should declare him not elected he will
carry the matter to the national con-
vention for decision
w. p. Jarrett, who made a close
race for national committeeman
against ]. H. Wilson, will probably
also ask the central committee to seat
him.

PAUWELA CASE GOES
TO SUPREME COURT

The ejectment suit of Namai Lei
aloha VS., Mahiai tried last week in
the second circuit court, and decided
in favor of the defendant, has been
appealed to the supreme court, The
case is of considerable Importance
since it involves the possession of
property in the undivided hui lands
of Pauwela, of which both parties to
the suit are members The local court
found that the plaintiff already occu-
pies more land than she is entitled to,
and hence the non-suit. The Pauwela
village occupies considerable por-
tion of this hui land, and it is probable
that this may be but the first of sever
.al cases of like character, Eugene
