would be started on the new build
ing just as soon as the detailed plans
and specifications can be completed
by Architect II. L. Kerr, of Honolulu,
who designed the structure. Owing
to the uncertainty concerning the
decision of the postoffice department,
work on the specifications for this
part of the building were delayed
somewhat. 1t is believed however,
that both the bank and the postohice
quarters can be ready for occupancy
not later than July l.
The part intended for use as a
postoffice will have a frontage of %
feet and be 72 feet deep. 1t will con-
tain large vault. In the front sec
tion will be a portico II feet deep,
with space for about 400 boxes. The
windows and boxes will be reached
from the portico, somewhat after the
plan of the Hilo postofiice. There will
be regulation counters and windows,

Settlement Tennis Club
Soon To Have New Court

Several meetings have been held
by the Settlement Tennis Club for
the consideration of the building of
a new tennis court. The Settlement
Tennis Club has grown with rapid
strides, until it's membership is now
so large as to necessitate new court.
This has now been decided upon.
Some 5000 being necessary to put in
the new court, and to make needed
repairs to the old one, committee
has been appointed, consisting of
Charles A. Puck, Mrs. e. r. Bevins
and H. K.Inada for the raising of the
funds. 1t is desired to raise the most
of this through the members them
selves, and thereafter means will be
taken to supply the necessary funds
to carry out this venture.
The Settlement Tennis Club is an
organization governing the courts, and
applicants desiring membership need
not necessarily belong to the AleXan-
der House Settlement Association.
The courts were originally built by
the Association, which has given the
Settlement Tennis Club the privilege
of using them. Some very clever
players have developed and the form
ing of the Club has done all that was
expected of it in the way of bringing
a live enthusiasm to the playing of
tennis.

Postmaster A. F. Costa, on Monday
of this week received a wireless mes
sage from the postoffice department
advising him that the bid of the
Bank of Maui for furnishing new
quarters for the Wailuku postoffice
had been accepted in accordance with
plans submitted, and that a lease for
the property might pe executed. The
lease will specify rental of $55C per
year.
This means that WailulIu is now as
sured of postofiice j keeping with
the size and importance of the com
munity, and that the Bank of Maui,
Ltd, will proceed rs fast as possible
with the construction of the combined
banking building and postOaice Glong
the lines contemplated for some time.

for the bank will have a frontage of
SO feet and a depth of 72 feet 1t

will be as near fireproof as science
can make it, Even the sash will be
OF metal and the plate glass practical
ly unbreakable. The central lobby
will be something like the lobby of
the Bank of Hawaii in Honolulu.
There will be private Offices for bank
officers in front and a large directors
room on the Church street side at
the rear.
The cost of the building complete,
including bank fixtures, will be be-
tween 100000 and $4,000.

Ten Million Dollar N. Y.
Heiress Visiting Maui

Miss Alice Antoinette de Lamar,
known as the ten million dollar beau
ty, who has been in the Islands for
the past several weeks, is now visit
ing Maui. She arrived last Tuesday
in with her companions Miss Evan
geline P. Johnson and Miss Marie L.
Baldwin, and is at present at the
Grand Hotel.
On Wednesday the party made the
ascent of Haleakala and spent the
night on the mountain alone except
for the guide. The weather was good
so that they had good view. 1t was
also a trifle chilly. They returned to
Wailuku yesterday afternoon.
Miss de Lamar is 29 years of age,
and has been the object of much
interest for a number of years. She
is the daughter of the late Captain
de Lamar, a remarkable and eccentric
combination of sailor and miner, who
amassed a large fortune in western
mining and in the stock markets. 1t
is reported that, besides several mil
lion dollars which her doting father
had given the girl before his death,
she was left an additional $10,00O,000
by his will.
According to all reports the young
heirEss is a thoroughly capable young
woman, of an independent frame of
mind, who knows pretty much how
to take calC of herself and her big
legacy.

Incendiary Fire Causes
Excitement In Lahaina

An incendiary blaze which was at
first believed to have been an at
tempt to destroy the big new Lahai-
ma Store, called Sheriff Clem Crowell
from his bed at o'clock yesterday
morning, and sent him hurrying to
the West Maui capital to investigate.
A pile of packing boxes at the back
of the store, against the concrete wall
of the building had been set on fire,
but without any damage to the build
ing. 1t could scarcely have been an
attempt to fire the store, Sheriff
Crowell believes, and he is inclined
to think it the work of small boys
with matches.

How The Big Organization Helped To

Men-Educational Work May Be

About 100 more Maui boys dis
charged last Monday from the army
service on Oahu, arrived home by
Tuesday mornings Claudine and
were given a warm greeting by their
friends on their arrival. Some 20 of
the party were from the Hama dis
trict and went on through. About an
equal number were landed on the La
haina side.
By Wednesday mornings Mikahala
another delegation arrived. 1t is re-
ported that about two thirds of the
soldiers are now out of the service
and back home. The remainder will
probably be discharged during the
coming week.
Most of the boys arrived home
wearing leis which had been present
ed them in Honolulu by the commit
tee, and were in fine health and
spirits. For the most part they have
already found either their old jobs or
new ones and are back at work.

stream, owned by the Wailuku Sugar
Co., and occupied by Joe Souza, a
team luna of the company, was de-
stroyed by fire, about noon yesterday
together with most of its contents.
Children playing with matches is sup
posed to have been the cause of the
blaze. The mother was at the home
of a neighbor at the time.
beltted telephone alarm was sent
in to the fire department, but the
building was practically in ashes be-
fore the fire engine could reach the
scene. A bucket brigade prevented
nearby buildings from being also de-
stroyed.

Air Tank In Garage
Takes High Air Trip
Explosion In Shop OF Maui Garage &
Transportation Co. Does Damage
And Workmen Have Narrow Es-
cape

With a roar heard all over Wailuku,
and generally ascribed to an unusu-
ally heavy blast of dynamite, the
compressed air tank of the Maui Gar
age and Transportation Co., exploded
shortly before IL o'clock on Wednes-
day morning, doing considerable dam
age to the plant and slightly injuring
one employee. A number of other
workmen, who were within few feet
Of the tank when 1t let go were
knocked down by the concussion Of
the air but escaped injury as by a
miracle.
The tank, which is about 2k feet
in diameter by 10 feet long, stood on
end just outside the garage, in the
passage between that building and
the store of the Wailuku Hardware &
Grocery Co. In exploding it simply
blew the bottom out, the tank itself
soaring straight up into the air, no
body knows how high.
Long Time Coming Down
But it must have travelled quite a
distance skyward because Joe Mede-
iros, head machinist of the shop, who
was on the opposite side Sof Main
street at the time, had time to run
back into the building and narrowly
missed being crushed by the tank
when it came down through the roof
within a few feet of him. In fact
Medeiros after getting back into the
shop, had time to inquire Of one of
the men the trouble, to be told that
1t was the air compressor, and then

Influenza Now Has
Maui In Fast Grip
At Least 1900 Cases Thus Far And
End Not In Sight-Better COndi-
ton In Lahaina, Worse In Central
Maui

George Weight, board of health in
spector for Maui, estimates that there
have been to date at least 1900 cases
of Spanish influenza on Maui. UP
to yesterday he has record OF 1878
yeases since January 25, when record
the disease began to be kept, and he
feels certain that there are at least
120 cases more that have not yet been
reported.
Reports of deaths are sent by gov
ernment physicians direct to Honolu-
lu, so it is uncertain just how many
cases have succumbed, but these will
probably number some IL or IS. In
Wailuku district there have been 3
deaths in the past week from the in
fIuenza, or from complications in con-
nection with it. One death has been
reported from Hama and others from
Lahaina and other points.
If anybody doubted the genuineness
of the present epidemic on Maui they
must have been convinced by the re-
ports of the past two weeks. Phys
icians &ho had been inclined to be-
lieve that the disease was but an ag-
gravated form of the old-fashioned
grip, are thoroughly convinced now
that it is either new type of infec-
ton, or very markedly malignant
form of the old trouble. The sudden
ness of the attack in typical cases,
the high temperature, and the quick
collapse, combines with other features
