YANK BUSTSU UP
PET TRADITION
OF HAWAIIANS
Defes IS pirits' to
Reach Summit, of
High Rock.

Honolulu, T. H., March 12.-
Correspondence of the Associated
Press. 1-The ancient Hawaiian
superstition that a romange-ringed
rock, rising sheer out of the ocean,
200 yards off the island of Lanai,
cannot be climbed because the
spirits will roll stones down on
you if you try it," has been shat
tered by Kenneth c. Emory, assist
ant ethnologist of Bishop Museum,
who is making survey of Lanai,
according to a letter received from
him by the museum.
The summit was reached after
two unsuccessful attempts.
The rock is known as Pueupehe
Island, in honor of Pueupehe, a
beautiful Hawaiian girl who was
drowned in sea cave on Lanai,
was wrapped in fine tapa, carried
to the top of the rock and buried
there by Makakehau, her lover, ac-
cording to tradition.
First Time In Century.
The tale continues that Makagu-
hau built a tomb over her body and
killed himself by leaping from the
top of the rock. Pueupehe was the
daughter of Uaua, petty chief of the
Island of Lanai, and one of the de-
pendents of the king of that Is
land, and the spirits guard her
tomb, according to the tradition. 1t
is believed that no Hawaiian has
ascended the rock for more than a
century, or since the death OF
Pueupehe.
No white man ever attempted to
climb it until Emory and two
other persons accomplished the feat
the Hawaiians of Lanai said.

LEACuETO RULE
DARDANELLES?
News Leaks Out From Meeting OF
Allied Foreign Ministers at
Paris.

Paris. March 25.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press. THE League of Ma
tions is likely to be asked to con
troll of the Dardanelles, it has be
come known, despite the secrecy
with which the allied foreign min
listers have yelled their delibera-
tions here.
The rivalry between France and
Great Britain in the near east and
the constant friction which has ex
listed between them at CONSTANT
nople are pointed to in interna
tional political circles here as
showing the practical impossible
fty of applying any scheme Of in
ternationalization to the straits
that would suit all the allies.

WEAKER SEX? NO,
BATTLING SEX,
JUDGE DECLARES

New York, March 25.-A new
status was given TO women by
Justice Thomas Doyle, in police
court when two women were
brought in for disorderly con-
duct They had called each
other names and then pulled
each others hair. In suspend
ing sentence on them the jus
tice said:
"The term weaker sex is a
misnomer for women; they
should be called the battling
sex. In my experience on the
bench 1 find that so per cent
of the disorderIy cases involve
women. My suggestion is that
in event of another war women
should be sent I'd the front line
of battle"
