He was at first hard to get Information from, but finally made tho statement on the stand that he would bo glad to employ citizen labor if it could be obtained and would If necessary discharge aliens who were at work now to put Ha- - waiians, Portuguese or other citizens to work. In regard to the possibility of find- - lug citizens who would take the work it is Interesting to note the fact that, when tho Naval people wanted men to work at Pearl Harbor, over one thousand applications for work were received within two weeks, all com- - ing from citizens.

He suggested that fourgames be played one afternoon, twoat Kapiolani Park and two at AalaPark, and the following afternoon fourmore games, two at the league groundsand two at Atkinson park. He alsoreported that national teams had beenarranged for, to compete with theteams from the fleet. Atkinson statedthat he thought some of the moneythat had been appropriated for base-

ball should be spent In improving thecondition of the Aala park field, andthat as many games should be playedthere as possible, as more people wouldbe present there than at any otherplace In town.

Chairman Super of the track com-

mittee reported that gold, silver andbronze medals would be given In eachevent, and that some ot tho moneyshould bo spent in improving the con-

dition of tho Boys' Field where theevents will be held. Chairman Char-ley George of the foot-ba- ll committeereported that he had twenty-fiv- e mensecured for his foot-ba- ll team if gamescould bo arranged, but he did not thinkthat any games would be played. Onmotion it was decided to assist thesocker team as much as possible If anygames could be arranged. It was re-

ported that John Anderson' had thosocker team in hand and that he couldplace a team on the field at snort no-

tice. It was decided to leavo the ap-

pointment of a chairman of the box-ing, wrestling and tug-of-w- ar com-mittee to Atkinson.

The baseball game on Saturday af-ternoon at the league grounds between'inched teams from the Riverside andNewspaper Leagues should bo worthgoing a Jong way to see. If the gameis arranged tho line-u- p will be an-

nounced tomorrow.

Next Wednesday will be a red letterday In the history ot baseball in Ha-

waii, because on that day the crackKeio and Santa Clara teams are ex-

pected to arrive, and will no doubtstart in to practice at onco so that theywill be in shape for the opening gameson Saturday against our local teams,ine old time fans who have beenwatching baseball hero ever since itstarted are certain that our teams willlearn a good deal about the nationalgame whether they win or not. Bothjot tho visiting teams are noted for.their team work, and their ability toplay a hit and run game, which issomething the local teams have notreamed to perfection as yet. The Keioteam are very fast on the bases andtheir hitting has Improved a good dealsince last year, so It Is learned frompeople who have watched them Jn ac-

tion In their own country. The SantaClara team, everyone knows, is one ottho strongest amateur teams In theUnited States today, having defeatedmany of the professional as well as thobest college teams from all parts oftho country. They aro bringing witnthem twelve men who know every1trick In tho game, and who aro notedfor their heavy stick work, os well astheir team work. Tho locai playersfeel confident, however, that they willbo aT)Ie to win some of the gameaAgainst tho crack visitors, but at any

'event tho people who watch tho gameswill bo treated to tho best ball theyhave ever seen hero. Tho four teamsIn tho big leaguo hero have been hardat work getting in shape for tho com-ing series, and they aro going to dofho best they can against players whohave a great record behind them. Dur-ing tho series two games will be play-ed every Saturday and Sunday, whichshould draw a crowd that ought to taxtho leaguo grounds to their utmostseating capacity.

SUBSCRIPTION

MEN ARE FLYING.

JULY 2, 1908

Briefly yesterday's cable announced -- that Count Zeppelin made

successful trial, at Lucerne that day, of his dirigible airship. Yes

terday's Star gave an account of the breaking of all American .records

for acronlanc flichts accomplished at Hammondsport, icw iorK,

June 21 by Glenn II. Curtiss in the third aeroplane built by the Aerial

Experiment Association of which Dr. Alexander Graham Bell, inveiv. . . : :.

tor of the telephone, is the president. Aiucn space is ngng sivi:i1

the magazines and newspapers to the experiments of the modest

persevering American aeronauts, the Wright brothers, with their fly

ing machine the chief merit of which seems to be its solution ot

to

I,1

the

problem of maintaining equilibrium in winds variable both in velocity

and direction. It is almost safe to say that, with so much human men

tality converging on the problem, the navigation of the air will be

;ing,practical verity within the lives of some not elderly persons now

At the first probably the science will not encompass more than the car

riagc of light parcels besides the men required to operate the airship

say urgent government mail matter in peace or military m war.' once the mere art of flying is mastered there is no saying the extent to

: which it may be developed.Count Ferdinand Zeppelin's experiments, of which a success was

yesterday reported, were to have begun on June 16. They were un

dcr military auspices and the German government had issued the strictest injunctions that details of the construction of the airship should

be kept secret. Nevertheless a news correspondent gave the follow

ing as an approximate description of the airship: "Length, 443 feet" diameter, 45 feet. The balloon is fitted with two independent plat

forms, each carrying a motor capable of developing .140 horsepower,

These are extremely light, weighing only 4.4 pounds a horsepower,

In case one of the motors breaks down, the airship can .continue, butat a reduced speed." '

It was hoped eventually . to attain with the full power a 'speed of

46 miles an hour, compared with a maximum of 31 miles an hou

thitherto attained. The radius of action was estimated at 1430 miles.

This, it may be observed, is only two-thir- of the distance ,from IIonolulu to San Francisco. Sufficient fuel would be carried' to'' enable

the airship to remain afloat 100 hours, sleeping accommodations being.provided for the crew. An apparatus had been installed for the dis-

patch and receipt of wireless telegraphic messages. One Ojf the con-

ditions of the contract of construction was the ability, of,, the airship. to maneuvre at an altitude of 4000 feet. The lifting capacity of theship was said to be more than 16 tons, to be distributed among 16

separate interior compartments charged with inflating gas and contain-

ed within the outer rigid envelope of aluminum. Two tons of ballastwould be carried. v "

The cabled success of the airship implies that all the conditions ofthe prescribed flight had been fulfilled. If the test was a final one theGerman war department possesses a workable airship or has one atfts immediate command.

Owing to the importance andjiinivcrsal interest in the: subject, TheStar is printing in full the report of the Tax Commission .to 'the Gov-

ernor. The first instalment appeared yesterday and a. second is pre-

sented today. All taxpayers as well as those who expect to sit inthe Legislature should secure and preserve the document, ,No doubtthe recommendations of the Commission will form an issue in thecoming elections and they ought to be carefully studied by everybody.Comment on the report is reserved until the publication has been

At the Republican convention in Chicaero the submitted nlanl infavor of the popular election of Senators was voted down by morethan seven to one. The ayes were 114 and nays 866. Whether thisresult was due to a heavy Senatorial influence in the convention or toa disclination to load the platform with an additional weighty subjectcannot here be said. Yet, although it is true that neither Rooseveltnor Taft has ever advocated the proposition, it is one of the mostpopular reforms in the Untud States today. The election of UnitedStates Senators by direct vote has five times been indorsed by thenational House of Representative!!. On three of the occasions the

nearly two-thir- ds of the states of the Union, and probably there is nota state in which it would not be indorsed, or at least carry a very largevote, at a popular election.

Evidently the Supervisors are unafraid of Shakespeare's characterization of the man who hath no music in his soul being applied tothem. However, at this writing it is reported that the county fathershave tal.cn second thought on the question of voting money to bringthe Hawaiian band up to something like its oldtimc strength for thevisit of the fleet. A special meeting will be held late this afternoon,it is said, when the matter will be reconsidered. It is more importantthan may casually be thought. One of Honolulu's greatest touristassets in the past has been the music frequently given the public bythe Hawaiain band. No doubt there is' anticipation in the fleet, amongthe- press correspondents as well as the sailors, of pleasure from hear-ing our famous band that, a quarter of a century ago, won first honorsin a great parade at San Francisco and throughout a longer periodhas received myriad press notices abroad. Disappointed expectationalways makes a deeper hurt than a performance or an appearance thata great reputation has not preceded.

CRUSADE PLANNED

Prevention by Treatment In Incipient

Stnges The End to be

Sought.

WASHINGTON, June 15. The giftlly Henry Philips of approximately;r)00,000 to Johns Hopkins University;Brtlie,.suily..t)f insanity and tq promote more careful treatment of in-

sane patients probably will have theeffect of starting a crusade against ln- -snnlty is the opinion expressed tonightby Dr. William A. White, superinten-dent of the Government Hospital forthe Insane. This crusade Will notrest content with the establishmentof a regular clinic in connection withthe university hospital. As explainedby Doctor White, the diagnosis of Insanity already is on as scientific a basisas other branches of medicine. Theradical departure to now be inatigu- -lated will be in seeking out cases ofincipient Insanity and applying treatnient of a preventive nature. 4

The public schools will be thoroughlyoverhauled and Just as now tho schoolis used as a central point Tor forcingchildren to undergo vaccination, sothe next tew years, said Doctor, White-- ,

will see Hie schools used as a rallyingpoint agaiiiBt the tlrst germs of Insanity.

CAUSES AND GROWTH OFINSANITY.

As formally specified in the deed ofgift, the bequest will be Used to es-

tablish an additional ward at JohnsHopkins University, where- specialtreatment will be provided for patientsin the earlier stages of insanity,. Itis In treating these incipient casesthat tho' clinical work will come out.An opportunity which Doctor Whitedeclares was heretofore beyond thereach of scientists will be given tostudy the growth of insanity.

Tho next step contemplated in thegeneral plan of the gift is to go backto the causes of insanity. Here noth-ing could be accomplished without re-course to the public schools. Notonly will patients in need of treatmentbe supplied from the schools (freefor tho early stage of mental diseasetreatment being offered to parents ofarineted eiilluTren hut to a certainextent the schools themselves will be-

come clinics on a larger scale thanwould be possible In any hospital- -

Here the effects of nervous diseasesand their gradual growth luto moreserious cases' of mental disturbancewill be watched and a careful selectiveprocess will be made possible to thoofficers in charge of the work. Children who show signs of undue morbidness or shyness, or who have become"high strung" from efforts to surpasstheir classmates In their studies, willcome under tho direct attention oftrained medical experts.EFFECT OF "FORCING" CHILDREN.

Under this system it will be possibleto study the effect of tho strenuous lifeon 'the young. The universal criticismthat has been directed at public schoolsfor unduly forcing children into prc-matu- ro

study of Latin, Greek andmethematlcs already has directed theattention of scientists to this quarter.It will now be looked at not as aneducational question, butas a branchof medical Investigation that may solveone of the problems regarding the in-

ception of insanity.Tho erection of the new ward at

the hospital will make it possible forcases that warrant it and tho expertsintend to take up the treatment ofcases as soon as tho signs are de-

finitely diagnosed to be brought at

once under systematic treatment, Thistreatment at tlrst probably will not gofar from the established treatment ofinsnne patients now In vogue at thebest sanitariums.

The difference-wil- l be that since thotreatment is free patients may be induced to take treatment who otherwise would .bo Bi't down aH merely"queer" and allowed to get along bythemselves. " This phase of the cru-sade 1 expected to put an enormousamount of jlata at the command ofmedical mem,' The bquellt to the In-

dividual patients win' be that theywill have the ndvantugfe of preventivetreatment iiistead of waiting until apositive cure alone would save them.

FIELD A WIDE ONRiThe Held opened In the schools by

this bequest Is an enormous one, andtic authorities do not expect to getit 'thoroughly- - systematized for somoyears. But meanwhile the crusadewill bo carried into an entirely differ-ent quarter, and the plans followedin the war on tuberculosis will af-

ford a guide to physicians In theircampaign against insanity.

The method to be pursued In thissecond phase of the crusade will con-sist In popularizing In all ways the re-

sults of scientific Investigation. Everyeffort will be made to Interest parentsIn the subject, and information Torthe use of teachers and nurses will bescattered broadcast.

Under this head plans already tirebeing formulated for a series of pub-lic lectures on the symptoms of In-

sanity, the treatment of the diseaseand the methods of preventing thegrowth of morbid or abnormal ten-

dencies In children. These lectures,as time goes on, will assume the pro-portions of '"Chautauquas of health,"and a knowledge of the earlier formsof mental weakness will be as gen-erally known and discussed In homesas the ordinary run of children's sick-nesses are at present.

HARRY THAW'S CASE.'PITTSBURG, June 15. News that

Henry Phipps has donated approxim-ately $500,000 to Johns Hopkins Hos-pital for making researches in insanitywas received with Interest here, whereMr. Phipps' ideas on Insanity are wellknown. It Is asserted that the caseof Harry Thaw, who was a great favo-

rite of Mr. Phipps, was instrumentalIn Inducing the gift. Mr. Phipps atone time sought to have AndrewCarneVle interest himself in a ventureto expend $1,000,000 in investigatinginsanity.

Since his young manhood Mr. Phippshas taken great interest In the studyof insanity, and is said to bo wellVersed In the subject. Ho always hasbeen opposed to insane asylum methodsand does not believe In closo confine-ment except In ease-o-f criminally orincurably insane. Some years agowhile on a visit to Pittsburg Mr.Phipps went through the Dixniont In-

sane Asylum, and his observationscommunicated to the State Board ofCharities resulted in a close inspectionof the Institution.

That tho family of Mr. Phipps is inhearty accord with his ideas is knownfrom the fact that the consent of hissons was necessary to permit such amove as that at Baltimore to be made.Some years ago Mr. Phipps agreed withhis sons that he would make no movesinvolving the expenditure of largesums of money without their consent.

able portion lying below low watermark, Tho owners ot this cable havorequested thai the Commission recom-mend the exemption from taxation ofall submarine cables lying below lowwater mark, and serving the govern-ment at government rates.

The Commission does not ceo itsway clear to recommend thnt this re-

quest be granted. It docs not bellovothnt the fact of tho cable company be-

ing required to pay a property tax onits submerged cable within threo milesof the shore of Oahu ls a burdensomematter to the company, or that suchfact would deter any other cable company from landing additional cables onthis island. It docs not believe that achange ln tho law as construed by thoSupreme Court declaring that submerged cables are without tho territory for the purposes of taxation wouldbo any encouragement to other cablecompanies. The property for whichexemption ls sought Is within the territory and like all other property inthe territory it should be taxed. Theevident theory of taxation exemption,except as to eleemosynary Institutions,is that of protection and encourage-ment of infant industries. The cablecompany does not come ln either ofthese two classes. It may be observedthat the cable company makes no Income tax return, and that the tax assessor of this division has not beenable as yet to collect any Income taxfrom the company.

The commission understands thatno net income is locally shown because, against local receipts the entlrolocal expenses aro charged. As thobulk of the company's business is lnthrough messages, relaying merely atHonolulu, the receipts for which arecredited to ofUces ln other tax jurisdictions, and to care for which tho entirelocal plant is practically necessary,such deductions from local gross earnings would appear to be incorrect lnprinciple. Many cables land on thocoast of New Jersey. That state measures the property of cable companiesby their gross receipts, on which ls lmnosed a tax of two per cent.

At least until some fair results oftaxation be obtained through the income tax or a property tax under the"Enterprise lor profit" method of assessment, based on the actual earn-ings and expenses of the corporationthe Commission thinks that no specialexemption law should be passed.

PUBLICITY OF TAX RETURNS.The Commission recommends that

Section 1241 of the Revised Laws beamended by including therein 'a morespecific enumeration of the documentsand records which are to be open tothe inspection of the public. See Ex-

hibit "A", Section .., page ..."It would seem to have been the pur-

pose of the legislature in enactingSection 1241 to make all records ofthe tax ofllces open to such Inspection,but in practice the section has beenconstrued by some at least of the as-

sessors as not authorizing or requiringthe tax officials to permit inspectionof the returns filed by taxpayers andof perhaps other documents. The pur-pose of the amendment is, as readilyappears on, its face, to make it entire-ly clear that the law does permit anyand all taxpayers at, all reasonabletimes to learn by personal inspectionof any of the records, including re-

turns. What property or income hasbeen returned by and assessed to anyother taxpayer, and what valuationshave been so returned and assessed. It.has been the experience of the pastthat oftentimes taxpayers believe,whether justifiably or not, that dis-crimination is being made in the val-uation or assessment of their propertyas compared with similar property ofothers. The section as amended willafford a safety valve for the allayingof such suspicion wJiere It ls

and permitted, and whether inten-tionally or unintentionally. It willfurther place it within the power ofany taxpayer who has knowledge orreason to believe that some other tax-payer is concealing property or incomefrom taxation to render assistance tothe assessor ln that respect after as-certaining from tho returns that prop-erty or income has been listed andshould to the same extent make It In-

creasingly dangerous to any taxpayerto present a return false ln any re-spect.PENALTY, INTEREST AND LIENS.

The laws as It now stands (R. L.Section 12G5) imposes a penalty ot10 upon all delinquent 1axes fromdate or delinquency and 10 interestper annum from fifteen days after de-linquency. It constitutes every tax aHen for flvo years upon the propertyupon which it accrues. From varioussources the suggestion is made thatall these provisions be stricken out,the argument advanced being thatthey constitute an undue burden uponthe poorer taxpayers, and, as to thelien, impede transfers of real estate,because intending purchasers andmortgagees aro always subject to thedanger of subsequently discoveringthat there are unpaid and enforceableclaims for as much as five years' tax-es. To the Commission it seems wiseto have severe penalties for the non-payment of taxes. It'is not as thoughthe claims for taxes, whether on May15 or November 15, were to come inthe nature of surprises to the debtor,for every taxpayer has notice for.months and even years In advancethat on those two days of each yearhis taxes must be paid. To re-move the penalty wholly or to lessenit in severity would be calculated toresult ln increasing laxity in the pay-ment of taxes. As to the period dur-ing which tax Hens shall continue ef-fective, there aro considerations whichweigh in each direction. The possibil-ity of five years' accumulations ofclaims enforceable out of the propertyItself certainly tends to some extentto restrict the free alienation of land,and on the other hand, to shorten thoperiod deprives the assessor to thatextent of tho power to give a tax deb-tor In poor circumstances extensionsof time within which to pay the taxesdue and save his property from enforc-ed sale. Tho Commission recommendsthat the period be changed to threeyears and that tho provisions concern-ing penalty and Interest be not amend-ed. See Exhibit .., page .., section ...

It may be added In this connection

that it seems desirable, to avoid possi-ble questions of law nnd to facilitateforeclosure Of liens, that specific provision bo made In tho law for substi-tuted servlco of summons by publica-tion or otherwise upon taxpayers whoare nt or otherwise out oftho Jurisdiction. The certainty of taxcollection should be as nearly nbsolntoas possible and to this end It Is recommended that all taxes, of whatevernature nnd from whatever source ac-cruing, and whether duo from residents or from be madoa Hen upon tho real property of tho taxdebtor (this in addition to and not asa substitute for the Hons otherwiseprovided by statute) and that, whena Hen Is foreclosed or enforced in anyof tho various methods prescribed bystatute, satisfaction be had out of theproceeds of such sale for all taxes dueat the tlmo of such salo from the taxdebtor. (For such proposed amend-ments seo Exhibit . ., page, section . ..)

TAX ON GROWING CROPS.Certain farmers have requested that

the tax on growing crops bo nbolishedon the ground that it ls double taxa-tion and that it tends to dlsranrntrRcultivation of the soil. Tho Commission does not seo its way clear to rec-ommend the change. TheoreticallyanV Sten Whlrh (Onilo tn illcnnnracultivation should be discountenanced.in practice, nowever, a very largo pro-portion of the rovenues from taxationin this Territory comes out of thogrowing crops. This ls an agriculturalcountry. If the tax on growing cropswere to be abolished, It would becomenecessary to substitute some othersourco of revenue or mp'hed of taxa-tion, capable of producing equal rev-enue. The probability ls that that newmethod whatever it might bo wouldmeet with at lea3t as much oppositionas that which is offered against thepresent tax. As to double taxation theobjection Is, the Commission thinks,not well founded. Even If it is in onesense double taxation to tax the grow-ing crops themselves and to tax laterunder the income tax laws tho net In-come derived from those growingcrops, still this is not objectionableuouoie taxation, such doubie taxationmay or may not be objectionable ac-cording as to whetherequally all those within a given" class.il u uoes, as it aoes m this instance, itIs no more objectionable than if inplace of the rate now prescribed of 1the rate should be made 3, and nomore objectionable than it wouid be totax the livestock on a farm nminr thoproperty tax laws and to tax, underme income tax laws, the proceeds de-rived from the sale of the same live-stock after deductinir th o r.nnt thoronfThe result Is the same in both instances, i ne tax objected to is neither un-constitutional nor unjust.TAXATION OF LARGE HOLDINGS

OF LAND.The succestion has hppn mnHo thnt

the Commission recommend progres-sive taxation upon land, the method otgraduation of the tax to be such as torender it unprofitable for any one per-son, partnership or corporation to holdmany or large tracts of land, and inthat way to cause the owners of manyor large tracts to sell and place thenronertv within rp.mh nf mart nf nnagricultural class and encourage thecoming of such immigrants to the Ter-ritory. The sucrcestion la tint tnndoas we understand it, in order to accom-plish a distribution of the burdens ottaxation which shall be more nearly inuixuruance wun aointy and thereforemore nearly just. In so far as the pur-pose of such an amendment would beto produce the breaking up of largolanded estates, it involves a questionof broad nollev ennwrnlnir inn ondimmigrants in nartimiT.irfaro of the Territory in general whichniu vuunnission deems to be not with-in its province, just as it would notbe within its province to consider, forexample, the question of whether ornot prohibitive license fees should beprescribed for the sale of liquor, at therequest of strict prohibitionists. In soin, on me otner nand, as the propos-ed amendment would bo Justified orrequired as a part of a general systemof nroirressivfi innatinn Mm nnmmia.sion is not prepared to recommend itsadoption at this tlation ln theory and perhaps In practice unuer some circumstances com-mends itself favorably to tho Commisdjuu, out me commission believes thatfor a time af least no such radical departure rrom the present method ofdistribution of taxes oncht. in hn --it-tempted. The Income tax laws and theinheritance tax laws should Ibo per-mitted to be applied for some time

longer before an additional InnovationIs attempted. Thero has been no de-

mand for a reduction of the tax ratoas to any class of taxpayers, and itwould be bad policy to voluntarily rc-du- co

It under tho circumstances. Onthe other hand, as already remarked,tho Indications arc, from tho silence onthe subject, that thero is no presentnecessity for an increase of the rate nsto nil or any class of taxpayers. Wheneither or both of these conditions shallnrlso and a greater familiarity on thepart of the taxpaylng public shall havobeen had with tho incomo nnd inhcrlt-nnc- o

taxes, it may bo found advlsabloto adopt progressive taxation as to thoproperty tax or as to tho Income taxor as to the Inheritance tax or as to allof them.TAX ON LAND OF EQUAL PRODUC-

TIVITY.Another request from farmers is that

lands of equal productivity, whethercultivated or uncultivated, bo taxedupon the same valuation, the argumentadvanced being that unless this courseisfollowed there is in reality discrim-ination against those who have cul-

tivated the soli and encouragement toothers to hold for less useful purposeslarge tracts valuable for cultivation.The Instance is cited in support of theargument ot an owner of a large un-cultivated tract, used solely for thopurposes of a cattle ranch, whose landadjoins a largo cultivated pineapplenlnntntlnn nnH tho plnltn la arlvntlpoflthat in this Instance the first mention-ed tract Is valued for purposes of tax-ation simply with reference to theavailability of the land for cattle rais-ing purposes and not with referenceto its capacity to produce pineapplesor other crops. If tho fact is that Inview of the capacity of the rancher'sland to produce pineapples or othercrops that land can bo sold upon themarket for cash at the same price thatthe cultivated pineapple lands bring,then under our property tax laws asthey stand upon tho books today thotwo tracts are taxable at the same val-uation, and any failure to so tax themIs a mere error of administrationwhich can be corrected at any time.If, however, the contention goes fur- -mer ana is to tho effect that the samevaluation should be placed upon bothtracts, even where the uncultivatedone is of a full cash value less thanthat of the cultivated portion, one suf-ficient reason for not making the re-quested amendment is that in this Ter-ritory conditions differ very greatlyas between almost every two pieces ofland that could be pointed out, condi-tions as to water for irrigation, rain-fall availability to market, etc. Inother words, but very few pieces ofland could be found situated under ex-actly the same circumstances, and itwould be impracticable to make anyJust rule capable of general applica-tion throughout the Territory such asthat requested.

In Its requirement that corporationspay upon the filing of a certificate otincorporation twenty cents for eachthousand dollars of tho total amountof capital stock authorized, and Insupport of tho complaint an instance iscited whore n foreign seeking to do business in Hawaii was metat the threshold with the advice ofcounsel that a fee was required by lawfor the filing of its certificate of thefact of its incorporation to$8000, the capital stock of the corpora-tion being forty million dollars. Chap-ter 157 of tho Revised Laws, ot whichAct 74 is amendatory, relates solely todomestic corporations, and so does Act74 except ln so far as express provisionis therein made to tho contrary. Astho Commission reads that portion ofAct 74 which Imposes the filing feeJust referred to, tho provision loes not

Resolution of Condolence on Death of

Entomologist Alexander

Craw.

THE MENACE FROM GLANDERS.

San Francisco May Be Cut Out ForShipments of Livestock

Hither.

A resolution of condolence to bespread on the minutes and sent en-

grossed to the widow, with respect tothe death of Alexander Craw, the Ter-ritorial entomologist, was passed yesterday at a meeting of the Hoard ofAgriculture and Forestry. It wasmoved by W. M. Glffard and secondedby D. P. It. Isenberg and containedtheso sentiments:

"The efficient manner In which headministered the duties of his ofilcohas won the respect of all and resultedIn lasting benefit to the agriculturalinterests of Hawaii, and by his genialand kindly manner he has endearedhimself to his associates and all otherswith whom he came In contact."

Mr. Glffard had received a letterfrom Mr. Craw's brother, written before his death, stating that the sickman had been delirious for some timeand that all his utterances during hisdelirium were concerning his work inHonolulu.

Dr. Norgaard reported a ease ofglanders in a shipment of mules foriKauai from the Coast while detainedhero in quarantine. The Territorialveterinarian also reported a proposalmade at a meeting between the animalindustry committee and the sugar factors, that In future the stock lor theHawaiian plantations be bought in theMiddle States and shipped here viaSeattle, cutting San Francisco out, asIt was feared that much of the glanders brought here, four times since Dr.Norgaard took office, had been con-

tracted by the stock while awaitingshipment in San Francisco.

Steps were taken looking to the erection of animal quarantine stations atHilo and Kahului.

Dr. Leonard N. Case was appointedassistant veterinarian In place of Dr.Fitzgerald, who goes to Maul as deputyveterinarian.

Dr. Norgaard had arranged for permits from Washington to land possible shipments or livestock from NewZealand in October and December.

L. A. Thurston by letter, on behalfof three Kona coffee planting companies, asked for a share of the 300

Mocha coffee plants lately offered tothe Board for distribution. Mr. Glf-

fard asked for some for MaunawllI onthis island.

Mr. Isenberg complained of the destruction or most of a' shipment of seedlings he had made to Kauai by saltwater on board an Inter-Islan- d steam-er. It was decided to write the com-pany asking It to be more careful withsuch shipments.

On the report of David Haughs, theacting forester, the thanks of the boardwere tendered to AV. M. Templeton,the Walalua Are warden, and H. C.

Dolllver of the Hawaiian PineappleCo., for their assistance in putting outa forest fire at Waiplo last Monday.

1 MADAME AiALgtTIIIIITITIIIIITIIIIIIIITl

The "Bolero Espagnol" which Ma-

dame Arral sang to the'accompanimentof tambourine and castanets is notreally a Spanish song but was adoptedby them from tho Moors when tholatter wero driven out of Spain. It Ispractically the national air of Spain,being played on all public occasionswhether a bull-figh- t, church parade orcoronation. Originally sung to theclashing of cymbals it ended with thewild yell, "Hurral'' of the Moors,meaning kill. Vasseur inserted It inhis opera comique and it has alwaysbeen very popular. While studyingSpanish songs and music, under tui-

tion of Madamo Helena Sanz, Spain'sgreatest cantratrlce, Madamo Arral be-

came familiar with this air and sangIt In the original tongue where thoSpanish guttural was much in evidence.Her rendition of gypsy and Spanishsongs has always been extremely po-

pular and her appearance lends Itselfeasily to these roles. On Tuesdaynext Medame Arral will sing amongher other items "La Veritable Mauola"ono of Bougeois' brilliant melodies,and also by request "Thou CharmingBird" from David's opera "The Pearlof Brazil" in which the voice and flutearo mingled in such charming cadences.As an entirely new program will begiven there should bo no delay in se-

curing seats.
