FOURTH OF JULY DANCE Dancing 0:3O.
 EAGLE HALL.

Work on the Snake river bridge was indefinitely interrupted on Saturday owing to the fact that J.. s. Waite claims a mining interest in that portion of the river through which the structure is being thrown. Waite claims his intention to dredSe through that part and therefore ob-
 jects to the obstruction. In this contention, according to Road Com missioner Jones, he is supported by the District Attorney. The Road Commission in the face of the ob-
 iection interposed and because con- demnation proceedings would be too costly and tedious, suspended vest erday all work on the bridge. It lis an interesting question that the objection of MT. Waite, whose claim to the ground was acquired by purchase of the original staker's interest, gives rise to. Some contend that that section of the river is 2 navigable Stream-a matter in the discretion of the War Department in which is also the Alaska Road Commission--and another is that as the city has a patent to that portion of the ground, it is imposs- ible for a mining claim to have the preference. In any event it is in- teresting to know that the townsite
 limits go up to the corner of the river at the bend up above the scene where the bridge is being construct ed. MT. Jones stated that he was promised by interested parties that a deed to that plot whereon the bridge is being constructed would be given, and until such time as he received the claim deed work would be laid off.

= GAME IS BIG.

Walter Pilot: The Pilot congratu-
lates the towns along the central
route Of the Jefferson highway which
has been officially decided upon, and
we wish to state that neither this
paper nor the local automobile as
ISOLATION are to be numbered with
those who show an inclination to be
sore over the final announcement as
given out by Mr.. Clarkson, who re-
sponded to the invitation to come to
Minnesota and decide the matter. The
rivalry for this highway has been a
great thing for northeastern and
northern Minnesota. It means much
better roads everywhere, and the fact
that Walker, as we'll as other live
towns, will devote time, money and
energy to either tap the Jefferson
highway or interest themselves in
other popular trails through the
state, does not signify that this time,
energy and money is being spent to
discredit the original quito boun-
Diary highway. When it comes to a
matter of good roads, the game is
plenty big enough for all of us.

OBSERVE
ANNIVERSARY OF
LINCOLN BIRTH

Tomorrow, February IL, being the
regular Saturday holiday, many of Ho-
nolulu's public schools today quietly
celebrated the birthday Of Abraham
Lincoln, as has been custom in the
local institutions for many years past.
An appropriate observation of the
day is required under the school laws,
and all teachers make it point to
prepare brief but fitting exercises.
In the schools which celebrated to-
day, the teachers read from the life
history of the great statesman, and
excerpts from his addresses and
works. The pupils assisted with read.
ings and recitations. Those schools
which did not celebrate today will
hold exercises on Monday.

A complete system OF telephone
communication between all the forts
and military posts on Oahu, supple
mented by radio stations at various
points, and with part of the telephone
system underground, is the plan to be
worked out by Mai. Edgar Russell,
who arrived on the transport Logan
this morning, coming to be signal Of
ficer for the Hawaiian Department.
As outlined by Mai. Russell who
comes from Washington, where he has
been stationed for three years, his
plans are to devote his entire atten-
tion to military communication sys-
Z tenn, by which any OF the land de-
fenses OF Oahu can communicate with
other forts on the island. He said
Oahu's land defenses offer fine field
for laying out an electrical communi.
cation system.
A feature Of the system planned is
that Il will include underground tele-
phone lines to various points where
defending troops viii be located In
the event OF an invading force landing
on the island. This division win con-

system will be for war use only, and
that the present Mutual long-distance
