Alexander HUme Ford, who has
for months been proving Himself one
of Hawaii's good friends, and who has
been praising t'.ie country up In so
many mngazlno nrttclcs, returned
i from Australia this morning on tho
1 Moana. When seen by n Ilulletln
leporter this afternoon ho had tho
following to say:
"1 have come back to Hawaii bo
cttuso I niu homesick. I talked il'i
wall with tho Governor of FIJI, tho
Governor of Samoa, the heads of the
tourist depaitment of Now Zealand,
nnd all tho Australian States. They
alt took favorably on n plan for unit
ed work In America with Hawaii tak
ing tho lead. The plan most In fa
vor was tho establishment of central
bureaus 'of Information In New Yoik
rnd perhaps Chicago nnd San Fran
cisco, nnd a laige olllco on Broadway,
exhibition to be made of the attract
ive features In Hawaii, and the
South Sen countries. Ileprcsontatlvcs
from each of the Australasian colo
nies iiud-.Ha'wail to be behind the
counters nnd give out Information
and literature.
"Tho Pacific steamship companies
to have their joint offlco thero, so
that before a tourist can change his
mind ho will be sold n round-trip
ticket nt lowest rates, entitling him
to visit Hawaii nnd cruise about
theso Inlands for a month, brenk his
Journey at FIJI for a week or month
at will; again at Samoa, New Zea
land, and Auatraja.
"Tho transportation companies fig
ured that such a trip could be mado
at a pound, or five dollars, a day. One
of the companies owning slower
steamers even offered to put In pns
sengor accommodations for S2.C0-a-day
cruises.
"I nm glad to see that llurton
Holmes Is here, for botli Now Zealand
and Australia wish to Invito htm be
low the lino as their guest. In fart,
1 so wroto him from FIJI.
"1 expect to remain In Hawaii foi
about a month find hope tliat those
who wish for the tourist nnd Immi
grant In Hawaii will maka them
felves known. I wish to get all the
Interests together and thon let them
go It 'their own way."
A burglar visited Mrs. Angus' placo
on Emma street last Sunday evening
at nbout 8 o'clock. He was seen by
a man named Nobrlga who was In tho
Iloynl School grounds at tho time. No
brlga saw the Intruder, who wore a
light shirt and khaki trousers, emerg
ing from one of the cottages on tho
Angus promises. Ho raised thu alarm
end the police weio sent for, but no
traco could bo found of the thief. Tho
occupant of tho cottuge stated that
only a revolver had been taken.

Never Mind
ABOUT LOCKING UP the house
when you go out, if you silver plate,
jewels and valuable papers are in our
safe-deposit vaults.
Why, a burglar would have to
bring a dray to carry off enough,
rues and bric-a-brac to make 'it worth
while, and that is hardly the safest
kind of a "haul". -
If you haven't a safe-deposit box,
