ORPHAN BOYS WILL

PLAY ON MAY 20-21

The orphaned and homeless boys

Of them, who make their home at
the Franciscan orphanage in AL
huuuerduc. will make their bow to
the people of this city in their sixth
annual entertainment at tho CryS-
tai theater on May 20 and u in a
playlet entitled, THE Mascot
The boys are already very much
cnthused over the prospects for a
successful play. RehearsaIs are al
ready under way. Some of the
veteran actors of the Orphanage
are to take the leading parts in the
entertainment, while the rank and
file of the youngsters are to appear
in the choruses and drills.
Tickets for the entertainment
will be offered for sale in the BUSH
ness and residence districts by
Franciscan sisters during the COM
ing week. Owing to the extremely
high prices demanded for prOVisr
ions and clothing, the orphanage
has had some hard going during
the winter months. However, all
the children in attendance have
had plenty to eat ana sufficient
clothes to keep them warm. The
entertainment to be held next
month Is for the purpose of raising
funds to help carry the orphanage
through the summer months,
The good people Of Albuquerque
are to be called upon to buy
tickets and win be assured that the
dollar they give for a ticket will
not only afford them splendid
evening of entertainment but will
he used in a very worthy cause.
Because Of the fact that the orph-
anage Is conducted by the Francis
can sisters--sixteen of them
whose lives are dedicated TO the
care Of homeless children and who
serve without any pay-it is possi-
bic for the institution to mako a
dollar go far and do much work,

Missing Sampan
From Island Of Maui

There is some mystery about that
missing sampan from Maui. Mondays
Advertiser has a detailed and circum.
stantial account, telling how the sam.
pan, after Is days of drifting, came
ashore on Kauai, near Lihue, where
the vessel was wrecked in the surf"
In due time kind-hearted friends took
the three men to Lihue, whence they
were sent to Honolulu
Presumably this is all so, since the
Advertiser says so, but we have been
unable to find anyone on Kauai who
knows anything about the matter,
either in Lihue, or anywhere else on
the Island.
The police authorities were notified
recently of the loss of the said sampan,
and were requested to keep watch for
it, but that is all they know about it.
1t must have been some other Island,
not Kauai, that has found them.

ACCIDENT ON WAHIAWA HILL

Coming up on the last turn of the
Wahiawa hill, Doctor L. C. Smith, in
his Stutz roadster, met a Buick six
driven by Mr.. Timberlake of Lihue
coming at a good clip down the hill.
The doctor Immediately turned to the
right, as he was making a wide turn,
but the driver of the Buick evidently
lost control of his machine, as his
car went on the rocks after passing
the Stutz. Although officer Refs, who
was in the car with DR.. Smith, is of
the opinion that the Buick could have
passed without going on the rocks, the
genial doctor, like the good sport that
he is known to be, has taken the
blame upon himself and has agreed to
pay the cost of new front wheel and
other minor repairs caused by the car
hitting the rocks.

CHAMBER Of COMMERCE
HOLDS MEETING IN WA|MEA
President Broadbent Brings Up Booze Question
---Children Seen In Comps Under Influence
Of Liquor---Sunday Movies Given Rap

In spite of the fact that Waimea is
quite a town, and that goodly pro-
portion of the members of the Cham
Der of Commerce live in that vicinity,
there was some difficulty and delay
about securing quorum at the regu-
lar meeting last Thursday afternoon.
Following the reading of the min
utes of the last regular meeting, and
and of the special of May 5, under the
head of old business:
Doubt the Feasibility
j. M. Lydgate reported for the Parks
committee on the matter referred to
it, re the protection of the region
about the mouth of the Wailua River
from unsightly shacks etc. The COM
mite had taken the matter under con-
sideration, but as there were several
kuleanas there belonging to private
parties, they could not very we'll be
controlled, unless the government
went the length of acquiring or con-
demning them for park purposes. This
they thought the government would
scarcely do at this time, and there
fore it was best to let the matter
stand for the present.
Matson Plans for Tourists
/. In regard to the advent of the Lur-
line, the outlook for tourists etc. CT B.
Hofgaard said that there were good
ly number of important Honolulu peo-
pie who came by her, but only three
bona fide tourists. But more import
ant than immediate tourists was the
visit of w. H. Sellander, general pas
senger agent of the Matson Co, Mr..
Hofgaard, as an enthusiastic member
of the promotion committee, had taken
some pains to make the acquaintance
of Mr.. Sellander and learn of his plans
for the development of the passenger
and especially the tourist trade.
Kauai to be Done in Movies
The Matson Company have secured
the concession for advertising in and
for the four greatest national parks of
the United States. That means that
in these great parks, where during the
season there are great crowds Of tour
lists, they will give continuous free ex-
hibitions that will advertise their tour
list route and attractions.
Also aboard their steamers on the
trip down to the Islands, they will have
moving picture shows illustrative of
the Islands. They would like to have
four or five sets of Kauai films so that
they could do justice to the Kauai
scenery. 1t was Mr.. Sellander's sug.
gestion that the Chamber of Commerce
of the different Islands might help to
secure such films
Hawaii and the Geographic
Another important opportunity for
us to advertise our scenic assests is
presented to us in the visit of Colbert

Bank of Kauai Will
Open On July | st

Karle B. Morgan, cashier of the
Bank of Kauai, states that his insti.
tuition will open it's doors and be ready
for business on July 1st. 1t will con-
duct the usual departments found in
such bank-savings, loan, exchange,
ETC., and will endeavor to give salts
faction and meet the banking needs of
the community as fully and perfectly
as any institution of the kind any
where.
The bank is organized with paid up
capital of $4,000, and a paid in sur
plus of $4,000. The officers and di-
rectors are partly local men, and part
ly resident in Hilo.
Deposits to the amount of upwards
of a million dollars are in sight, so
that a large volume of business is as
sured.

Grosvenor, editor in chief of the Ma
tional Geographic Magazine.
81 took the liberty of writing to him
and inviting him to Kauai at which
time | would undertake to personally
conduct him so that he would see all
that was worth while on Kauai and
tell him all l know and more about it.
l haven't heard from him yet He is
preparing to issue a special number
of the Geographic devoted to Kauai
and it goes without saying that it will
be a splendid number.
Tourists First Then Handle Them
Commenting on our shortage OF suit
able hotel accommodation he said that
for the one night that the tourists
were here, they could stay aboard un-
til such time as suitable hotel accom-
mediation could be provided. That
would be the safest way; to go slow
and see how the tourist trade worked
out, and then meet its assured require
ments."
Beats Any Place He Knows
Mr.. Broadbent said that he had had
pa long talk with Sellander while wait
ing for the steamer, and had been very
much impressed with him as a very
live, efficient and intelligent man. 81
put it to him straight, all bunkum and
bouquets aside, as to what he really
thought of the Island, and he replied
that honestly in beauty and compact
ness of scenic attraction, it beat any
place he knew, and he had travelled a
good deal" But of course we needed
facilities asked him what we should
do irst, get the facilities and then
wait for the tourists, or make sure of
the tourists first and then build to
meet the trade.
Film Panoramas of Scenic Beauties
He said he thought we had better do
the latter, which is at any rate, safer
business proposition. He said moving
picture picture film panoramas of Wal
mea Canyon, Olokele, Kukuiolono
park, and Hanalei should be on the road
all the time, advertising us, and that
the Chamber of Commerce might well
stand behind the scheme.
Just what films would cost it was
impossible to say off hand-but he
was going to look into the matter
and would report later.
There was considerable discussion
as to where the funds would come
from for such films. The leading
hotels, garages, steamship companies
, would probably contribute literally
and the Chamber of Commerce might
we'll do the same. A motion to that
effect was formulated, but it was
! thought best to let the matter stand
over until Sellander was heard from.

quickly as possible. She also secured
the assistance of the local police force,
Eric Knudsen, and others, all of whom

easily master of the situation.
In the meantime Mr.. Crawford and
Jack Bottomly had extricated the
lifeless body of Mr. Wilcox from be-
meath the car, and with Mrs. Crawford

the suffering mother and little daugh-
ter.
When the doctors arrived they made
what partial examination they could
and decided to transfer Mrs. Wilcox
and Lois to Makaweli. Hospital for X
Ray examination, and despatch the
bodies of the dead to Lihue. BY this
time there was plenty of help, so that
this could be readily done. Later in the
evening Mrs Wilcox and Lois were
brought to Lihue in the care of DR..
Waterhouse.
Rush wireless messages were sent
to relatives and friends in Honolulu
and at the Coast.

CHAS.H.W|LCOX
AND NIECE DIE
IN AUTO CRASH.
Car Skids and Goes Over $50
Foot Precipice ---Wife and
Child Narrowly Escape With
Their Lives.

The Wilcox party had been spending
the day, Sunday, June 20, at Kokee, at
the c. H. Wilcox place, and left for
home early in the afternoon. They
were in three cars-the Misses Wilcox
in advance, the H. Wilcox family
next, and the Crawfords and Mrs. P.
l.. Rice, last.
The road was in good condition and
the day beautifully clear and fine, and
everything went we'll until the middle
got down to the place where the road
narrowly skirts the edge of gulch to
the left, about two miles above the
cane limit Here there had been a
slight kewai shower a few minutes be-
fore,-very local and of such short
altogether. 1t was just enough to
make the fine, light soil greasy" The
road skirts the edge of the pail so
close for few yards that there is no
avoiding it, and just at this point un-
fortunately there is a little hummock
, in the road which the car would strike
at pretty good jog coming down the
heavy grade. Striking this probably
DETECTED the car which taken with the
skiddy condition threw it so far
around that it went over the bank. 1t
was all done of course in an instant,
and no wisdom or skill could have pre-
vented it. AS it went over side-wise
rather than end wise those sitting on
the upper side, Mrs. Wilcox, Lois, and
Jack Bottomley were thrown, or per-
haps jumped and fell clear of the car,
while Mr.. Wilcox and Elizabeth
Waterhouse remained in till the next
bound when they were slung out so
forcibly that they were killed when
they struck, and the former was then
pinioned by the Car when it came to
rest, well down the slope.
This is mainly surmise as to what
happened and how. The only thing
that any one seems to know is that
Mr.. Wilcox, as he felt the car going
cried to Jack Bottomley-"Jump
Jack!"
The car went down some 200 or $50
feet, "a perpendicular drop of per-
haps $50 feet to where it now stands,
headed mauka instead of makai.
The outcome of the momentary
tragedy was that c. H. Wilcox and
Elizabeth Waterhouse were lying
mangled and dead-the former pinion-
ed under the rear of the car,-and
that Mrs. Wilcox was badly bruised
and with a dislocated left arm, and
little Lois, her daughter, with broken
collar bone.
Jack Bottomley escaped with a few
scratches and bruises. With the excep-
ton of the latter, they were, OF course,
in helpless condition.
The third car, containing Mr.. and
Mrs. Crawford and Mrs. p. l.. Rice
arrived at the scene some 15 or 20
minutes later, and venturing very
cautiously over the skiddy road, came
to their assistance. Mr.. and Mrs
Crawford scrambled down the bank
to give what first aid was possible
while Mrs. Philip Rice went on down
to Kekaha to secure medical aid. This
she did as hurriedly as possible, yet
cautiously too, as the road was still
slippery.
She found the nearby Waiawa re
gion almost deserted, every one hac
gone to a tennis meet at Mana so thai
she could get little assistance here
and had to go on to Kekaha mill where
she got into telephone communication
