IS READY
FOR HOP

kauai, T. H.. June 29.-Richard
Grace, Los Angeles aviator, was
preparing to hop off from here to
the United States In his monoplane
early today. Mechanics worked on
his plane all night, checking and
greasing.
Forecasters meanwhile reported
that the weather was none too
good for the flight. Grace will also
be handicapped in starting by the
narrowness of the flying field
The Los Angeles airman retired
at 10 o'clock last night, saying he
intended to get good nights rest.
He was a guest OF Lindsay Sayre
at the Kauai plantation inn.
Grace narrowly escaped wrecking
his plane when he landed here after
his flight from Honolulu last night.
He landed in a grove OF low
bushes on the Banking sands, but
managed to keep his machine In an
upright position. His plane was
undamaged.

 RESULT OF QUAKE

The hot springs at Sea Level. in Porcupine Harbor. at the mouth of Lisianski Inlet, are no longer hot, according to word brought to Juneau by the crew Of the mailboat Margnita which returned from her weekly trip to Sitka
 It is thought that the change is due to the earthquake of a month ago. The first visitors to the springs, after the disturbance, reported that cold water is issu- ing from the ground where hot water had previously poured forth.
 The tank of cement, which was built some time in the past, was cracked by the quake, also, it was reported.
 The Sea Level hot springs were not used great deal at any time, although people went from Hirst- -Chichagof to bathe in the waters, which were supposed to have qualities to cure some ail- ments.
