ONE RAT DID 1T.
Lively Saturday Night in the Home of
MIR. Chapman of Indiana

Livery saturday Night In the Home of
Mr.. Chapman of Indiana.
The family of William Chapman,
living at 275 Blake street, had
lively experience on Saturday night.
The family had retired early, and
all were sleeping peacefully, when
suddenly the wife sprang from her
bed uttering a string of staccato
screams. The children were in
stantly awakened, and as visions
of murderers and robbers dawned
upon their minds they joined Justify
in the pandemonium that their
mother had started. The husband
rushed from his room and vainly
inquired as to the cause of the
screaming. His wife and children
had apparently lost all control OF

In our salutatory to the read
ers of the HAWAIIAN STAR we
will conhne ourselves strictly to
matters in which the public,
without regard to factions, is
deeply interested.
We might embody a lot OF
statistics that would interest one
portion of the readers and be
cast aside as "slush' by as many
more, in this instance we will
give facts regarding certain
things.
We have already published a
notice of the granting OF patents
for the Jones Fence" Our
reasons for asking for the patents
were obvious-one OF thcm-bc
cause certain people on the Isl
ands, recognizing the superiority
OF the locked fence, contempla-
ted manufacturing it for sale.
When we get hold of a good
thing we like to keep it, and
keep it good, hence the patents.
The following letter from a
gentleman who savez fences
and cattle as well as anyone on
the Islands, is what we consider
a pretty good recommendation
for the Jones Locked Fence:

ton to visit our store and

There are places in this fence

Pierre Free Press:It has been 9 pop
ular saying in the past that. every inch
of snow that falls during the winter
months means an extra bushel of wheat
per acre the following season. This is
an utter failacy, as the Free Press be-
lieves.. The government reports, obtain
cd through Its different weather bureaus
scattered over the west. show q certain
average Of precipitation during the
twelve months of the year. In South
Dakota we believe the average Of moisture
that has fallen during the past twenty
wears or so has been about sixteen inches
annually. 1t stands to reason that If a
greater part Of this precipitation comes
during the spring and summer months
the growing crops will be more benefited
thereby than if it fell during the winter.
In the latter event tho snow ia melted
and rnus off into the water courses the
first warm days, before the sun can get
action on the frozen ground underneath,
thus preventing any benefit to the lands
that are to be sown to crops. Therefore,
1hen the Free Press hears an exchange
remarking on the heavy fall of snow
and the extra bushel- -per-acre-to the
inch-theory, however good its intentions
may be, it cannot but be wishing the
country bad luck.
The amount Of snow that has fallen
during the winter just drawing to a
close, in this state, has certainly been
small in comparison to other years. In
the Sioux and Jim river valleys the
ground has remained covered;a all winter,
but not very deep-not enough, in fact,
to raise a respectable drift, except where
distractions were placed to catch the
drifting snow. In the Missouri valley
there have been several good storms, and
the amount OF snow that has fallen will
probably equal that OF any other section,
but the weeks Of warm, sunshiny weather.
iuterspersed with frequent chinook
winds-of which we seem to be often
favored-have operated to lay the ground
almost bare.
This slight amount Of precipitation,
we take it, Is good sign that next sea-
son will be one Of the most prosperous in
the history of the state. If we get the
average precipitation of the past twenty
years during 1894, it means that the
great hulk of il will fall in rain dnr;no.

June. when it is most needed to save the
crops. In that case all those who plant

TO oner a rational excuse for not being able
TO put their hands upon this Agricultural
and inexperienced negro amateur. With
fourteen good cases against him. however,
the ex-Slasher IS not likely to disturb this
vi any other city for some time to come
