AGAIN
ATTACKS KAUAI
SHEEP VICTIMS

Anthrax has broken out in a herd
Of sheep at kealia, Kauai, according
to a wireless message received this
morning by the territorial board Of
agriculture and forestry. The mes
sage was from Deputy Veterinarian
A. r. GIaizyer, and was dated at Ii
hue.
This new outbreak, which is -
miles from HanaIei, is in a district
distinct from any other yet infected
district from any other yet infected,
according to members Of the a9ricuI-
ture board. Dr.. Case of Honolulu,
who is directing the fight against the
disease on the Garden Island, was to
begin vaccinating the herd at once.
There are a total of $50 sheep in the
herd. According to the message there
are no cattle in the field with them.
Superintendent Charles S. Judd said
today that the infected flock is prob
ably located several miles mauka Of
in that region during the year
Up to this afternoon Mr. Judd had
had no more word from Maui cases,
which indicates, he says, that the re-
cent outbreak there is probably under
control. There are no cases on Ha-
wall, so far as known.
DR.. Norgaard, territorial veterina-
rian, who went to Maui to aid in fight
ing the disease, is expected back here
on Tuesday, and will superintend the
removal of the Farm cattle at Moiliili.

UP TOMORROW

At noon tomorrow the board of SUI
pervisors will hold a special meeting,
and while it has been called princi-
palIy that the board may finish up its
business before going out of office,
It is expected that several ordinances
will be introduced establishing new
offices.
Ordinances establishing the posi-
tons Of superintendent Of the cleo
trio light department and chief of the
fire department were scheduled to be
introduced by Charles N. Arnold a.
the meeting last Tuesday, but faile I
to materialize and 1t was announced
afterwards that there had been no
time to prepare them. Arnold is als1
supposed to bring in an ordinance
creating new positions for road super
visors who will take over the main
tenance of roads, relieving City and
County Engineer Collins in order that
he may devote his entire time 20 the
frontage improvement work.
There is, however, some opposition
In the board against the ordinances,
particularly on the part of Daniel
Logan and William Larsen, who be-
lieve that such matters should be
left to the incoming board. But the
other members see 1t differently, par
ticularly those who have been reflect
ed, and as Mayor Lane has said that
he will sign them, it is expected that
they will go through without much
trouble.

Will
PRESENT DEMAND
FOR wage RAISE

Honolulu stevedores have decided
to present a new demand for a wag!
increase to the Matson Navigation
Company involving an increase to 50
cents an hour for straight work AMI
IS cents for overtime, as against the
old wage scale Of 80 and 40 cents an
hour, respectively.
A committee appointed at last
nights meeting tc draft new demands
began work this morning and will
place their propositions in the mail
tonight, for delivery to all shippers
tomorrow.
On the committee are President
Charles Holoua Of Honolulu Local,
International Longshoremen's Asso-
citation, chairman; M. G. Correa, Jr.,
Robert kuakini, Jacob Andersen, Bel
jamin Ross, and Jack Edwsrdson,
president of the local Labor Council
who is an ex-oificio member of the
committee.
I'VE will present our demands to
Honolulu shippers tomorrow morning
by MAIL" said Holoua at noon in the
office OF the Sailors Union, where all
members of the committee were at
work drawing up the longshoremen's
demands for a second increase in the
wage scale for stevedore labor. 1--WE
will give them until July to consider,
and If they do not act by that time
We are in a position to walk out and
stay out. We have 400 members and
each has contributed SIS to the relief
fund"
THE story printed in the Hawaii
Hochi of an offer made to us by the
Matson line to increase the wage
scale to 40 and 60 cents is correct n
that regard" said Holoua. THE
company made me the offer on Thurs
day, May "a, in the main offices OF
the company at San Francisco. There
were present myself, representing the
Honolulu Local of Longshoremen;f
Port Captain Saunders, with whom
most of my negotiations were car
ried on; Captain Matson, Secretary
Roth, and John Kean, deputy labor
commissioner of San Francisco, who
was my legal adviser.
Captain Matson and the other OF
ficials agreed to the increase, so far
as their line was concerned, and CAP
tain Saunders directed me to make
the offer to Honolulu stevedores at
a meeting to be called for the pur.
pose, and report back to him whether
they were satisfied with the offer. |
have done all this and written him.
l am now waiting for his reply"
In reference ~ the purported offer
of the Matson line as printed in the
Hawaii Hochi, to increase the wage
scale from 40 to so cents, E. D. Ten
ney and John H. Drew of Castle &
Cooke declared that they had never
been informed OF such action on the
part Of Captain Matson.

ably commented upon.
In the general exceptions filed to-
day it is declared that all criticism
and recommendations in the report
are matters within the discretion OF
the trustees, and that the report
shows nothing to be in violation OF
tn will of the late Mrs. Bishop, foun-
der Of the schools. The court is asked
to approve the 3lst annual accounts
and report Of the trustees.
1t is asserted in the exceptions that
the military training at the school Is
will, and that the assertion Of the
investigators that it is, is erroneous.
The said report" say the excep-
tions, sets forth no matter Whatever
wherein the trustees have departed or
are shown to have departed from the
wish of the said testatrix."
1t is further asserted that the state
ment in the report that on certain days
academic work was omitted to enable
the boys to attend military drill, is
also erroneous, and the exceptions
also point out errors in the statement
of presidents and principals as re-
ported by the investigators.
Excuse Betting Incident
AS regards the betting incident,
where a boy is declared to have
escaped punishment for betting on
football game, the exceptions assert
that Principal Bostwick was given no
opportunity by the committee to be
heard in this matter.
The exceptions point out that, as
general rule, only three hours each
week are devoted to military drill at
the boys school.
Regarding the criticisms of the
course of study at the boys school.
the exceptions say, in part:
I'm the last three years there has
been a cutting loose from some time
honored customs. 1t does not follow
that the curriculum has been lowered.
On the other hand it has been mod
ernized, vitalized and improved. This
is in accord with common thought.
Mr.. Bostwick's concise statement
Of what is desirable in English is anu
ply supported by modern educators OF
national reputation"
As regards Rev. j. L. Hopwood's let
ter to the investigators, the excep-
lions say, in part:
This letter should be read in the
light of the feet that previous to it's
writing and after a confession that he
was not In sympathy with the pres
emit policy of the trustees or of the
president of the schools, he presented
his resignation as chaplain and his
resignation was accepted"
. With reference to the criticism OF
Principal Bostwick, there is appended
to the exceptions in his defense his
record as a teacher prior to being
brought, to Honolulu.

All millinery minds appear to travel
to an inevitable goal, no matter by
what road they go. When they nego-
tiate with fashion concerning the mat
ter of mid-winter hats, fur and velvet,
fur and metal brocades, fur with metal
embroideries, fur with metal cloth, APP
pear to be the end of their magma
lions. One might think 1t contrary to
the constitution, in the realm of style,
to leave out fur; for 1t Is everywhere
But. If the designers haven't fur then
they use fabrics that suggest 1T, and
feathers.
Very small neckpieces made to
match, account partly for the partial
fty shown to fur Just a touch of
fur on the hat, and high collar, like
small muffier of the same fur, to be
worn with the hat, leaves no doubt
In the mind as to the smartest thing In
winter millinery. The neckplece may
be a scarf or cape, and both 1t and the
hat that goes with 1T may be of cloth
and fur. Designers have made many
variations on this theme pnd all OF
them successful.
