CANUCKS HOLD
 PASSCHENpAELE Orders by German General 1t Must be Held at all
 COstS-Nud flinders
'hoto by American Press Association

BRITISH FRONT IN BELGIUM, Nov. 19.-Field Marshal Won Hinden- burg's stern edict that if the Germans lost Passchendaele village it must be retaken at all costs had not stirred
 his beaten-back troops into action this morning The intrepid Canadians were still standing as they had for twenty four hours, along a line well beyond this vital point, although rain-drench- ed and shivering under the biting au- tumn wind in their muddy fastnesses.
 Every hour strengthened the Brit ish positions on the front of Passchen- daele, Mosselmarkt and Goeberg, for the work of consolidation proceeded apace during most of yesterday and all of last night. Passchendaele, whose spire not long ago showed pictures quely against the sky from their ele- vated position is now a memory. The little hamlet has all but disappeared
 under the deluge of shells. It was not the village that counted, however. but its enviable site. From 1t one may see a great distance out across Bel gium and the possibilities for artil- lery work from here are wide in scope.

PASSENGERS TAKEN OFF SAFELY
VESSEL AND CARGO
 VALUED MILLION HALF

SEATTLE, Nov. 19.-The Alaska Steamship Company's liner. Mariposa, south bound, was wrecked yesterday morning at o'clock. on Strait Island reef, in Sumner Strait, south of Wran- gell Narrows. The steamship had OH board 265 passengers and large load of copper ore and canned salmon. The passengers were quietly taken of the boat without panic. and landed on the island, later being taken off by the steamer Curacoa, which respond ed to the s. O. S. call, and landed at Wrangell.
 Her cargo of salmon and ore was lost, nothing being saved but the mail and express, and the passengers per sonal effects.
 When the vessel struck she was running under slow bell out thru Sumner Strait, after leaving Shakan for Wrangell, and was in heavy snow furry at the time. She slid up on the reef so easily that her offic- CTS thought she could be saved. but investigation disclosed a large ho!e in her forward quarter, thru. which the water rushed in great stream. After hanging on the reef for about r hours she gradually slipped of and went down into about 200 fath- Oms of water.

Reef Menace to Vessels


 Strait Island reef, upon which the Mariposa was wrecked Is one of the most dangerous obstacles to naviga- tion in Alaska. To avoid Wrangell narrows vessels upon leaveing Ju mean go thru Stephens Passage. Fred erick Sound, Chatham Strait. and rounding Cape Disappointment into Christian Sound. square away up Sumner Strait on ten mile course, making a sharp turn to starboard to avoid Strait Island reef, and thence thru Mitkof sound to Wrangell. While this route Is probably 100 miles fur ther than thru Wrangell Narrows. 1t eliminates vessels tying up at the mar rows and waiting on the tide. The water is very deep on each side of the reef. which is nearly steep-to. A small light is the only safeguard against hitting the reef and in thick weather this cannot he seen until vessel Is right upon the island. Mariners all ways approach this turn with great caution. and recently a petition had been sent in for better facilities for safeguarding vessels along this chan mel

FROM A NOBLE LINE.

=, L. JOSEPH, the man who gives
each month one dollar of his sixty
- dollars-a-month salary to the Red
Cross, is a man out Of the ordinary IN
more ways than one. Mr.. Joseph is
known about town by his Hawaiian
name of Iosepa. He was one OF the
first ProgreSsives in the Territory,
and, in the estimation of the principal,
teachers and students of Mckinley
high school, he is the greatest janltor
that any public institution ever had,
Mr.. Joseph is known about Mckinley
high as the manager. When Professo:
Scott wants anything done about the
place he turns it over to Mr.. Joseph,
knowing it will be carefully looked al
ter. If the pupils begin to run wild in
their treatment of the school property,
Mr.. Joseph is on hand to remind
them of their responsibilities as stud
ents. He is a first class workman ana
high grade janitor.
Another interesting part of it is that
Mr.. Joseph comes from famous fam
lily. His great grandfather resided at
Hama, Maui, In the olden days when
steamships were unknown, the great
grandfather of Mr.. Iosepa decided to
90 to Samoa. He accordingly secured
one of the largest war canoes, stocked
| it with the necessary calabashes, Of
poi and water, and set forth. In gooc
| time he arrived at Samoa. He evident
lily was pleased with the country, be
cause he married there, and, histor!
ireeords, he brought his wife back t.
Hawaii.
| It is the pioneer spirit handed
down to him from his forefathers tina
makes Mr.. Iosepa one of the natura
LEADERS in efficiency and service ant
of progressive ideas in politics.
Mr.. Joseph was rather displease'
at the appearance of the item regard
; ing his contribution to the Red eros
because it quoted him as speakin
broken English. Il do not talk tina
way" said Mr.. Joseph to the Star
, Bulletin. 81 speak good English.
This is true; he does.

There is no other day in his calen-

the opening day of the top-spinning

and refrain from playing hockey be-
cause there is nothing like a school
yard for a top spinning ground.
At any of the yards today crowds OF
boys can be seen around "a ring heav-
ing their tops into the circle and spin

merits of different kinds of pegs do
not end during the recess period but
even extend to lesson time. And after

STEPS ARE TAKEN TO
SOLVE WATER PROBLEM

To clean out reservoirs No. and
No 3 in Nuuanu valley, to install a
new chlorine plant, to see that pa
troll is established. to keep visitors
out of the watersheds and to advise
residents in the upper levels OF the
city who are being supplied with Nuu-
anu valley water to boil it before
using, were the four courses of action
decided upon at joint meeting of the
board of health and the health and
sanitation committee of the board oil
supervisors Saturday.
The meeting was called to discuss
the problem of the water supply for
the hill districts of the city which are
using Nuuanu valley water and which
owing to the drought is muddy and
discolored and said to be unfit for hu
man consumption. The recommends
lions of the meeting will be placed
before the board of supervisors at q
meeting Tuesday night.
