Fire at Lahaina
Wipes Out Relics
Scoutmaster Douglas Loses Al
When Cottage Burns on
Sunday Night-Origin of
Blaze Is Unknown.

Fire of as yet unknown origin last
Sunday evening destroyed a lone
plantation cottage, next to the resid-
ence of Judge G. B. Cockett, on the
beach at Lahaina, which was occupied
by w. H. Douglas, distribution clerk
in the Pioneer Mill Company's office.
Local fire equipment was of no avail,
for hose could not be stretched to
within 500 yards of the blaze.
Between s and 9 o'clock the flames
were discovered. Douglas had gone
into town for dinner, and there was
no one in the house at the time the
fire broke out. Returning as DON AS
notified, the young man was unable
to save anything in the way of house
hold effects except some sheets on a
clothes-line and a suit in a bath
house. About the only article taken
from the burning house was a rock
ing chair, and that burned on the
lawn.
Household effects were insured for
$4,000, much of which consisted of
articles which can be replaced,
since they were relics and souvenirs
of the war, from France, and men,
entoes of Siberia given to Douglas by
a frlend.
Mrs. Douglas was in Honolulu and
was to have returned home tomorrow,
though her return, says Douglas, may
now be deferred until they can obtain
another place of residence.
Mrs. Douglas was formerly matron
nj the boys school at Kamehameha.
She was teaching at the Lahaina pub
lie school.
Mr.. Douglas is a Scout Master in
Troop V, the largest troop o. Boy
Scouts in the Islands. His books and
records, as a Scout chief were lost in
the fire.
Among the relics of war-torn France
consumed in the blaze, was an altar
cloth presented to Douglas by an
Australian soldier who had rescued
it from a burning church during a
German drive.

VIII D2r2lop Water
For Malaupapa Needs

Every effort will be made to de
kolu valley on MOlokai to meet the
demands of Kalawao and Kalaupapa
in the Molokai settlement for taro
patch and household purposes, DR..
Frederick E. Trotter, president of the
board of health, was quoted as saying
in Honolulu after his return there
from a two weeks visit 10 the Lonely
Isle.
Waikolu Valley, through proper de
velopment, will produce 100000 gal
Ions of water every "a hours, DR.. Trot-
ter believes. The Molokai settlement
will not need all this water and the
surplus will be turned TO much adEan-
tage for irrigating lands above the
settlement now being put into pine
apple cultivation. II will not be pos
sible. however, to develop sufficient
water in this valley for sugar cane
raising, considering the extra large
amount of water required for this lur-
pose. says the board of health presi
dent.

settlement very satisfactory. The pa
