first shot fired was. from the three
highest bidders, Pacific Engineering

1--WE protest against tie awarding

they are irresponsible bidders and are
not qualified to properly execute the
work specified nor do they possess

public to award a contract to such ir-
responsible and unqualified parties. "

VOLCANO PUTSON
GREAT DISPLAY
DURING KONA

THE weather at the Volcano dur
ing the weekend was Of the very
same brand OF liquid sunshine as
Honolulu has obviously been expert
encing," said L. W. de Vis-Norton yes
terday. when the Mauna Kea drew
near the harbor at O'Clock, and the
German steamers doomed up, still in
the same old places, / thought you had
been experiencing an earthquake and
a bombardment combined, for the
channel was a mixture of boxes, fruit,
debris of all kinds, and chocolate
colored fluid such as you may see ous
at the beach most any day after a
rain. .....= -.
ut wasn't quite so bad as that at
the Volcano, although we had a Kona
storm on Sunday which lifted off sec
tions of the roof of the officers quar-
tiers at the military camp, and scared
seven years growth out Of several
cook stoves, but we went down to the
nit Of Halemaumau as usual, and were
rewarded with one OF those great vol
canic spectacles, which are all the
more wonderful because they only
happen about once in a blue moon.
"The pit was very smoky and funny
except on the southeast rim and, as
luck would have 1t, that was the very
point where the great show was taking
place. The whole lake was streaming
down steeply to the southeast corner,
where there is q tall crag with long
peninsula behind It; the lava rounded
the crag and then began to rush in a
torrent 90 feet wide at rate of fully
40 miles an hour to a point where an
enormous white-hot arch oyerhung 1t.
In front OF: this arch, the whole tor
rent heaped itself up in a gigantic
wave and then plunged, perfectly
straight, down into an awful chasm.
'T have seen lots of lava cascades
and falls at the Volcano" de Wis.,
Norton continued, but they we're mere
trickles In comparison with this great,
believing torrent. The masses of sur
face skin would round the point solid
~ and be instantly torn to smither-
Gems by the hundreds Of bubble foun-
tains; as they reached the brink they
would sometimes leap upward in
sort Of frantic effort to escape, and
then. down they. would go into that
awful funnel with terrific roar. We
stood and watched it-for over couple
OF hours and the river showed no
signs OF diminishing when we left.
The extraordinary part of the whole
business was that, notwithstanding the
enormous quantity. of lava pouring
down into that vortex, the whole lake
was spparently rising. i may have
been that the crags and inner benches
we're sinking more rapidly than the
lake surface. but believe the lake
rose fully three feet while we were
there. It was a magnificent display
after dark and ] shall never forget ii.
we we're certainly amply repaid
for the amount of liquid sunshine
that was presented to US by the kona,
for ] have rarely seen the firepit in a.
more angry mood, and one could wait
q whole lifetime and never see sight
like that vast cataract Of brilliant gold
and flame.

Fruit trees are being destroyed and

one-half miles of Saint Quentin, the
key to the district, and the immediate
objective OF the French pursuit.
This city Is now reported to be
strongly fortified. They have crossed
the Saint Quentin canal at Tergnier.
an important railroad station. which
they have occupied and consolidated
as they proceeded. and throughout the
whole region further and important
progress is reported.
The British also are pushing ahead
rapidly, according to the official re-
ports from the British headquarters.
There has been some sharp fighting
in the neighborhood of Saint Leger,

last night attempted to make stand

is reported that Saint Leger is being
held by large numbers of the retreat

machine guns.
