WAIKIKI BEACHES ARE BEING SPOILED.
Hundreds
of Tons of Sand Taken at Diamond Head said to Affect the
Beach Nearer Town.
Is Honolulu's
famous beach for bathing and surf-riding at Waikiki being
reduced by the taking of sand for build purposes?
Those who have
watched the stretch of beach from Diamond Head towards Kokonko
for a long time say that the sand has been appreciably
lowered,
leaving the coral more bare than it was formerly and one
theory Is that the carting of hundreds of loads of sand from
some parts of the beach is responsible for the change.
The sand Is
taken away from beyond where the bathing resorts are located
but there is a tendency to equalize along the length of the
beach.
A loss at one
place ss levelled over by gradual reductions at other places,
say those who have the kicks to make, and as hundreds
of tons have been removed, the effect is beginning to be
noticable.
There is
plenty of splendid sand for building purposes all along the
beach from Kokanko round Koko Head, but the places
from which it is being taken are just this side of Diamond
Head.
It is taken
from private property and there Is no law to interfere with
the removal of any amount.
The longer
haul from Koko Head would be an added expense which the users
of the sand do not want to pay, hence if the taking of sand is
really doing harm to the places for bathing, public sentiment
is the only thing that can stop it.
The bathing
resorts at Waiklkl have made part of the fame of Honolulu, but
some bathers have remarked lately that the sharp coral, which
cuts the feet of those who step on it, appears to be more
plentiful above the sand than formerly.

ROUGH SEA DRAWS CROWDS TO WAIKIKI.
The Experience of a Bather Who Says He Does
Not Like the Booming Surf.
Surf-riding
and bathing have been very popular during the past few days of
rough weather, and Waikiki resorts have been well patronized
by people who enjoy swimming or "riding" when good-sized
breakers roll.
...
Those who like
the bathing are having the time of their lives just now.
Last night the
Waikiki Inn and the Annex had all their surf boats und boards
out and many bathing suits were in use.
The surf Is
breaking far out and white capped waves come rolling in with
splendid effect.
It is a hot
time for the bathers and they nre making the most of it while
it lasts.
