THE CAPTAIN, THE COCK AND THE COOK
THAT RIDDLE READ.

ftlODIE READ.
There was a captain, small but bold,
Who sailed from Boston West;
There was cock both lean and old,
VINO troubled that captains rest.
A cook there was at Hawaii,
A Chlnaman, All Coup,
II need him in this tale, for he
Put that cock in the soup).
The captain, who at eight O'Clock
Sought quietly his rest,
Was nightly by this fighting cock
With constant crow DISTRESSED.
The captain moved from cot to cot
All over Honolu,
And wheresoe'er the captain got
Went cock-a-doOdle-do
The captain raved and tore his hair,
Then moved to Waikiki;
But still came on the midnight air
That doodle-cock-i-dee.
Now desperate the captain grew;
This was his constant moan:
eff / can't make that cock in stew
Tll have to hasten home"
He sought at last the cook, All Coup,
And served him up as chicken soup
To stop his doodle-do.
Now joyous went the cap to ted,
With hours of rest in view,
But nearly lost his aching head
When-"Cock-a-do
"The same old cock? it cannot be;
L saw it in the pot.
No ROSTERS ghost can crow" said he,
"But yet it does, Great Scott"
For long and loud the Growing grew;
1t seemed one mighty roar.
The captain pack'd and bade adieu
To Honolulu's shore.

The cock that haunted Captain p.
Was certainly game;
You wind him up, he crows, you see,
Till he runs down again.

BURNING GRASS AT WAIKIKI.
Prompt Assistance Prevents a Sc

About II A. NJ. on Saturday
morning the grass on the Pratt
premises at Waikiki was discov-
cred to be on fire. A high wind
was blowing at the time, and it
looked for a while as though the
residence would take fire. Charles
Warren, with the aid of some Jap
anese, extinguished the blaze, but
not before two acres of grass was
burned and a large number of
cocoanut trees were scorched at the
base. The fire department was
called, but the danger was over be-
fore the engine arrived.

National Cane Shredder
PATENTED UNDER THE LAWS OF
THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.

The attention of Planters
and Agents is called to the
following letter from Mr..
JOHN A. SCOTT, Manager of
the Hilo Sugar Co., regarding
the working of the National
Cane Shredder, which he has
just introduced into the Mill
of that Company:
WAINAKU, HLo, HAWAII,
January 22d, 1894
HoN. WIN. q. IRWIN, Honolulu, Ii. L.
DEAR SIR:-In reply TO yours of the
10th inst regarding the National Cane
Shredder furnished by the UNIVERSAL
Mill Co. of New York, and erected bv
the Hilo Sugar Co. this past season,
would beg to say, that it has now been
in operation day and night during the past
three weeks working on plant cane, and
also hard ratoons, and it is giving me the
greatest satisfaction. The more | see of
its capabilities, the better pleased 1 am
that put it in, as | am satisfied that it
Will repay the original outlay in q short
time, in saving of labor, higher extrac-
ton, etc.
1t is shredding from $50 to 400 tons OF
cane every % hours with the greatest
ease, and it could shred a much larger
quantity II necessary. 1t delivers the
shredded cane in an even uniform feed
to the three roller mill, which receives it
without the intervention of any labor,
and as the cane is thoroughly shredded
or disintegrated it relieves the mill of q
great deal of strain, thus reducing the
liability of broken shafts, gearing, etc.
There is a saving of four al men daily
on the mill, as only one man Is required
to regulate the amount of cane delivered
by the carrier to the shredder. It has
increased the extraction from to
5 per cent.
The economical use of steam is gene
rally serious consideration in adding
new machinery, as in most mills the
boiler power is taxed to its highest limit,
as 1t was in this mill, and any increased
demand necessitated an additional boil
er. But find that the shredder and the
three roll mill engines combined use no
more steam than the three roll mill
engine did when working on whole cane,
while doing better work and more of it,
and owing to the uniform feed on the
mill, the engine demands very little
attention.
The Negass from the shredded cane
makes superior fuel, and the firemen
have less difficulty in maintaining a uni
form pressure of steam than formerly.
will be pleased to have a call from
parties interested, as it is necessary to
see the machine at work to fully appre-
ciate it's capabilities.
remain, very truly yours,
(Sig.) JOHN A. SCOTT,
Manager Hilo Sugar Co.

SUGAR SCANDAL STORIES.
The Newspaper Men Who Refuse to
Testify May Be Prosecuted.

washington, May 2S.-If the subjects
created in the report which the Senate
committee, now engaged in investigating
the sugar question, will make to the SEN
ate tomorrow may be taken as basis for
+rdgment, it looks as if the committee
bad lost sight of the main issue and were
irving the case of three newspaper men
wirb the ultimate object in view of
sscertaining how far their authority ex-
tends in compelling newspaper men to
teU the source of information upon which
their news matter is founded. The com
Trittee in its report viii recommend a
change in the existing laws, for the reason
mat they believe the present statute lame
and not sufficient to cover all cases. They
will also urge that the amendment to the
statute be passed at once 50 that they can
Droceed in satisfactory manner in the
examination of witnesses.
AN OLD LAW UNEARTHED.
Under section 1O4 of the revised stat
utes of the act of 1857, the committee viii
report the failure of these witnesses TO
testify. and it will become the duty of
the president of the Senate to at once
certify this fact to this district attorney,
who must proceed before the grand
iurv The witnesses will not
he called before the bar of the
Senate All these witnesses will remain
firm in their determine tion not to answer
the question. Judge Dittenhoefer said
tonight that before any proceedings
were taken under indictment he would
raise the question of Jurisdiction and
fight the case in that line from court to
court, as he has before the Committee.
FUTURE WORK OF THE COMMITTEE.
Whether the investigating committee
will continue in other branches of the in
osliry. pending the prosecution of the
cases against these three witnesses, has
no, vet been determined. No testimony
was taken to-day
IL was the refusal of James w. Cimon-
ton Washington correspondent of the
New York Times, to answer a question in
an alleged bribery case that caused the
act of 1851 to be passed. He was placed
in iail Jan. 21, 1857, and discharged Feb.
Q. without having answered. Feb %,
he was expelled by the House from
the press gallery on account of his failure
to give the information sought. The law
of 1851 makes the offense of the three re-
calcitrant witnesses misdemeanor, and
provides a maximum penalty of LOCO fine
and a years imprisonment, and a minimum
penalty Of 500 fine and one month in
