HONOLULU-The Outdoor Circle a woman's civic organization, will direct the replanting of the streets of Honolulu with trees and shrub bery, a work made necessary by the hurricane of December 3, which uprooted hundreds of shade trees throughout the city. A uniform plan for the Identification of the entire city will be worked out.
 The thousands of towering trees which withstood the storm still give to Honolulu it's background of per petual green, and from the noun tain side or the deck of an incom- ing steamer, there is little visual evidence of the havoc wrought.

WILSON ARRIVES Al BOSTON FROM
 EUROPEAN 1R|P

BOSTON, Feb. 24--President Wilcoa landed at the Commonwealth pier at II :42 this morning. Mayor Peters, of Boston, went out on the revenue cutter Ossippee to the trans port George Washington to welcome the President.
 President Wilson and party transferred from the George Wash ington to the Ossipe, from which vessel he made the landing.
 The reception given the Wilson's at Boston is reported to have been quite as demonstrative as any he received abroad.
 A vast crowd of Bostonians, swelled by many thousands from all parts of the New England states, occupied the buildings along the route of the parade from the pier to the Mechanics Hall The route was gaily decorated with flags and bunting.
 A special train, which will bear the Wilson party, is in readiness at the depot and will leave for Wash ington at i 80 this afternoon, after the President has delivered his ad- dress at the Mechanics Hall The arrival of President Wilson at the Mechanics Hall at 2;30 this afternoon was announced by the firing of the presidential salute from the battery.
 Governor Cooleidge and Mayor Peters extended the greetings of the state and city to President Wilson.
 In the course of his speech at the Mechanics Hall, President Wilson said: "The greatest thing have to report to you is that this country of ours is trusted throughout the world. l do not come here to re- port the program of the peace con ference, for that would be pre- mature. Men who sit at the con ference table in Paris fully realize that they are the servants of their people, and no man of them dare go home from the conference and report anything less than would be expected if they were hearing the whole case from those most inter- ested. I have been struck by the moderation shown by those repre- senting national claims"

ELEVATED TRACK
 |S BEING BUILT
 ID UNLOAD COAL

For the purpose of having a large supply of coal on hand for the various uses of the A. K. C., and to facilitate the unloading of this coal here, an elevated track is now in course of construction in the Nenana railroad yards.
 This new track branches off from the track leading into the engine house, the switch for this purpose has already been put in and the necessary cribbing placed, and com mencing this morning the necessary piling to support the track will be driven
 Holes for the piling are being thawed out and the new American ditching machine is to be used for the purpose of driving the piling.
 The new track will be approXi- mately 1000 feet in length and will be 12 feet off the ground, and will run parallel with the present rip track. It is so constructed that the Brown hoist on the rip track will be able to pick up the coal when necessary and distribute it as required.
 The coal cars will be run on the elevated track and dumped on both sides of it. It is expected that the 5000 tons of coal which has been contracted for with R. E. Burns & Go. will be hauled and unloadeo at this point.
 The necessary piling and other material for the construction of the track has already been assembled on the spot and the work of con- structing the track will proceed as rapidly as possible.
 When the gap in the line south of town has been completed to allow of the extension of the steel, it is expected that the Burns mine will be reached in few days from the time tracklaying is resumed. A large quantity of the coal from this mine is now ready for shipment, and the entire quantity contracted for will probably be hauled to town before the breakup. The bridge across the Nenana at 43-mile will most probably be injured by the ice at the breakup and for time, at least, traffic with points on the farther side of the river will be interrupted. The Burns coal mine is aboue six miles beyond the Cross ing at 43-mile, and as much coal as possible will be hauled in before the breakup puts a temporary stop to through traffic to the mine and beyond.

princess Of Wales returned from a
trip to the continent, the princess per-
suaded the queen to let her take him
to her home at Sandringham. The
princess thought Looty's loneliness
should be ended, since he couldn't

SO she sent to China for mate of

The fad started by the princess was
