Out on the Land

There is no small degree of con.
sternatiOn and dissatisfaction a.
mOng some of the Kapaa home.
SteaderS at the recent invincible
stand taken by the land depart
ment in regard to the personal
residence clause in the homestead
agreements. Some people who did
not take this clause seriously were
living in Kapaa, and going out to
their homestead holdings Just
often enough to keep in mind
where they were.
During the last few weeks there
has been quite an exodus of these
town folk to the tall timber of the
outlying country. They are city
folk no longer, but burnt and
brawny rustics, seldom seen in
town, and in hurry to get back
onto the land and make good.

The following letter was re.
ceived this morning from Land
Commissioner G. T. Bailey in an
swcr to Il letter asking for infor-
nation as to why the Pun Ka Pele
Park had not been turned over to
the County of Kauai:
Honolulu, Aug. %, 1919.
Mr.. X. c. Hopper,
Editor, Garden Island.
Dear Sir: Permit me to state
that the document in connection
with the setting aside of Pun Ka
Pele Park, which was awaiting
the signatures of the Knudsen
Brothers, has just been received at
this Office duly executed.
The matter of setting this tract
aside by Executive Order, will be
laid before the Governor upon his
return form Hilo tomorrow, and
the Board of Supervisors for the
County of Kauai may expect a
copy of this order within the week.
Very truly yours,
G.. II. BAILEY.

Water Supply for Park

J. H. Moragne spent few days
at Kokee last week with w. V.
Hardy, and incidentally looked
into the matter of suitable
water supply for the proposed
summer camp region ofJthe new
Pun Ka Pele park.
He found that it will be perfect
ly feasible to pipe water from the
stream in the neighborhOod of
Malua Poha, the Faye's place,
where there is an adequate supply
of excellent water. Even at this
dry time he found 1900 gallons an
hour.
1t will take about four miles of
pipe, ane and a half inch at the
head. reducing to one inch lower
down where the grade increases.
This will give an abundant supply
for all reasonable requirements
and for any probable population.

WILCOX WILL

In accordance with the pub.
lished notices the first hearing in
connection with the probation OF
the A. :. Wilcox will was held
before Judge Dickey last Satur-
day morning, an which occasion
the attorneys of the Estate were
represented by B. L. Marx and
Robbins B. Anderson.
The witnesses to the original
will were A. Lewis, Jr., f. w.

present and testified as to the
signing of the instrument and the
sanity of the testatOr.

were F. Crawford, II. ID. Wish
ard and f. n. Young. The two
former were present and testified
in regard to the same.
w. n. Stewart testified as
to the death of the testatOr and
the willingness of the trustees to
serve.
+. w. Jameson, of the Hawaii
an Trust Co. testified that he had
made an inventory and tentative
valuation of the personal proper
ty of the estate, including stocks
and bonds, and estimated the
same at S5,466,000. Interrogated
as to the amount of cash that
would be likely to pass through
the hands of the Executors, he
said that it might run to million
dollars and that with this in view
the Hawaiian Trust Company had
made arrangements in New York
and San Francisco to secure salts
factory bonds to that amount.
The Court confirmed the ap-
pOintment of the Executors and
Trustees nominated in the will
and fixed the amount of the bond
at one million dollars, and direct
ed that a detailed inventory be
lied within 60 days.
The Attorneys for the Estate
suggested as appraisers for the
property A. Fl. Rice, Ernest A.
r. Ross, and Frank Crawford,
and the court appointed the same.
In regard to the real estate,
under the terms of the will, only
the rents will be handled by the
Trustees. 1t was estimated that
these rents would not exceed
$4,000 year,-and on that
basis the Bond was fixed at
$25,O00.
Mr.. G. p. Wilcox was an inter.
ested auditor and there were a
few others representing the gen.

tate that has been prObated on

LAST SUNDAYS
BASEBALL GAMES
LihUe Loses Game

Lihue Loses Game
The wonderful luck that has at
tended the Lihue team since the
beginning of the league games this
year, deserted them last Sunday
at Kapaa with the result that Ma
kee handed them their first defeat.
1t was a mighty interesting game
and the fans, as well as the play
ers, were on their toes from start
to finish of the game.
The Makees are an exceptionally
well balanced team and played
the game like professionals. The
absence of errors on their side was
the factor that won them the
game.
Lihue was not so fortunate.

the occasion. Wood has been play

and 1903, and the way he put 'em
over Sunday, and mighty wallops
he gave the ball when at bat,
seems to signify that he is just
about as good as he was II years
ago.
