HUGE dutch BOAT
ARRIVES IN PORT

Refused permission to enter the har
Dor last night after sunset, a Dutch
steamer in port today did not pass
pratique and 1t was nearly 10 O'Clock
tbs morning when she locked. She is
the biggest Dutch steamer to call
here yet, and ranks in size with some
of the largest vessels which have been
in the Honolulu harbor. The Dutch
liner has a net tonnage of 5000 tons
and is almost as long as the wharf at
Pier 6, where she locked. The vessel
is to take $50 tons of coal while here.
There we're 116 passengers on the
Netherland liner, 10 Of whom are
Americans. Most of the others are
Dutch business men and their families
from Java, who are on their way to
Holland for visit. .~
When the Dutch steamer left Yoke
hama on October 5, it was not expect
ed she would arrive here until next
Thursday, but if she had been allowed
to dock last night she would have
made the voyage in less than ten days
or in a time equal to that of the speed
lest Maru liners. She stayed off port
nearly Is miles last night after failing
to get permission to enter.

Lieut.. Commander, U. S. N.

Flying the pennant OF vessel OF
the auxiliary naval reserve, a MatsOn

head of the company, who passed away
since the steamer left San Francisco.
The naval reserve flag was made on
the voyage down from the coast and
was raised yesterday, the day on
which II was announced all the Ameri

or more was Communicated.
In other respects the Matson liner

her commander, Captain Francis Ed
wards, received his rating as a lieu
tenant commander of the navy before
leaving San Francisco. J. R. Forbes,
chief engineer. and E. Sanders. the
chief officer, were others who were
examined for ratings as naval reserve
officers before the ship left the coast.
Besides the officers, practically all
of the engine men of the steamer
we're given navy ratings in keeping
with their rank and position on the
liner. A number of others on the ship
we're not taken into the naval reserve
because they are aliens.

and of course Icy always happened
TO get in the way. The show was

there wasn't much OF plot, Izzy was
as usual the whole show. Ethel Da-
Wis and Betty ButteriCk we're encored
several times for their singing
The single hit OF the evening was
rather impromptu, but if Izzy is game
he will incorporate it in the show and
give all his audiences the treat he
gave the first-nighters. The Monte
Carter trio was out front singing Il

several times. On its final appearance,
II was MOnte's cue to enter. He en-
tered, all right, but the trio was still

the music was adaptable to the hula,

bers, and the show altogether is a
happy musical burlesque.

FREIGHTER NEARLY LOST

The T. K. K. freighter Unkai Maru
No. 2, Captain Satow, came in yester'
day afternoon with most of her top
hamper damaged. Captain Satow re
ported that in latitude 46:42 NJ, and
longitude 1923 w he ran into ter
rifle southerly part of circular storm
with a cross sea. He said:
1.-The weather beat up over our
weather side so hard that several cab
in doors were broken in. / must re-
greet that l cannot offer you cigar.
The waves washed into spare room
where / had stock of excellent Ma
nilas. They we're all spoiled. But,
please, have a cigarette. These were
in my desk and are excellent.
"Lifeboats were stove in and much
of our tophamper was carried by the
board There was time when I saw
little hope of coming out aliye. But
We managed to work our way out from
the center of the storm and found
that the Unkai Maru held easily when
preached. She lay at a great angle to
the wind, but she went just so far and
no farther.
Il note with interest that the center
of circular storms seems to be at the
worst on the dead line of 1870 degrees
longitude. There has been much OF
this storm center during the past year
and transpacific captains should be
careful. / am sending in a
report of the prominent ATTITUDES of
the storm centers. San Francisco

NICHIGO MARU
GETS into PORT

After 81 days at sea the crew and
officers of the three.masted Japanese
schooner Nichigo Maru were still de-
tanned off port up until noon today.
The vessel, after being held off Oahu
for the last three days by unfavorable
winds, which has been nearly a month
in sailing the last 600 miles Of the
voyage from Japan, managed to get
into port last night. She anchored
far in and on the shoreside of buoy
marking the limits of safe anchor
age, but without experiencing more
trouble.
Her delay in getting pratique this
morning is said to be because her pa
pers are not in proper shape. This
is the schooner from Japan which 1t
was feared had been captured by the
German raiders, as she was long over
due in reaching this port.
The Nichigo has 1890 tubs of soy
for Japanese merchants in Honolulu.
The vessel was reported as near Oahu
several days ago by a sampan navi-
gator who sighted her about 20 miles
off Makua point. - .
. Her commander is Captain lbesu,
who says no suffering was caused by
the long voyage, as she, was well sup
piled with food and water. Adverse
winds are the only reasons given for
the length of the voyage. ~"

that the present war was a war
in the interest of humanity, one
that would bring universal
peace. The greatness and
glory of America was spoken

as a unit, making every sacri-

a result of the titanic struggle.
The court room in which the

flags formed the centerpiece,
and flags and bunting were

A FINE RAIN FELL
HERE WEDNESDAY,
Close to Inch and a Half of
Moisture Fell During Day,

After dry spell lasting for sever
al weeks this section is thoroughly
soaked, fine rain having visited this
section Wednesday and Wednesday
night.
There was no buster or bluff
about it. In the forenoon mist be-
gan to fall which increased in vol
ume, until toward night it amounted
to a downpour. The streets were
miniature rivers, and every low place
is lake.
The downpour lasted until the ear
ly hours Thursday morning, and the
sky is still overcast with promise of
more moisture.
While the rain came too late to
save some of the wheat it is thought
by many that there will be at least
half crop with favorable conditions
from now on. The grass has already
began to green up, and the rain will
be big help to spring crops.

BIG SEWER DITCHES
On East Sirth There Are Great
Holes in the Street.

The sewer bitches which were fill
ed since the last rain caused bad plac-
es in Liberal streets after the down.
pour of Wednesday. On East Sixth
street there were several bad caves,
and what is still more dangerous to
cars or teams, the dirt in places was
washed from the lower part of the
ditch leaving but a crust on top,
which could not be noticed from a
car or wagon. Drivers will do well
to exercise care in driving over the
bitches until they can be refilled.
