SATISFACTORY CoNDIrIoNs Al THE
SETTLEMENT.
rresenting the Instruments Inspection
The Various Features of the
Place.

The steamer Lehua returned to
port about 1 o'clock Sunday morn
ing with the Board of Health and
party who had gone on a visit to
the leper settlement.
The Lehua reached Molokai at
7 am. Saturday, about two hours
late. A large number of people
congregated at the landing to re-
ceive the party. The brass band
was in the crowd and greeted the
visitors with music. Professor
Berger and his huge box Of new
band instruments were the center
of interest at first.
After a consultation between
members of the Board and officials
Of the settlement, while Professor
Berger was distributing the instru-
ments and instructing members of
the band, the visitors proceeded TO
the Bishop House for girls. Doctors
Wood and Oliver led the physic-
ians through the various dormitor-
les and wards, while President
Smith and Mr.. Reynolds had con-
ference with the Mother Superior.
Later, returning to the Superin-
tendent's house, the party mounted
horses and proceeded to Kalawao.
While on the road, and near the
reservoirs, the resident, officers OF
the settlement, with several mem
bers of the Board. left the party
and went up the valley of Wal
hanau to investigate the water sup
ply in that quarter. 1t is believed
that at comparatively small out
lay an additional supply of water
may be obtained from this source.
Returning to the public road, the
party proceeded to Kalawao, meet
ing on the way the other party who
had completed their tour of inspec-
ton of the hospitals and the Bald
win Home Tor boys. At the boys
home the officers of the Board had
a leng thly conference with Mr..
Joseph Dutton, who has for many
years so ably assisted the sisters in
the conduct of the home. Under
the new departure of placing this
home under the care of brothers the
management has been offered to
Mr. Dutton, and it was with refer
ence TO arrangements for the future
that the conference was held.
Returning from Kalawao the
visitors all met again at the Super

Messrs. Honolulu Iron Works Co, DEAR
SlIs: We have been WORKING the kraiewski

without DELAY and with the mos sat sfactory
results ftum the start. eur daily work has
increased from "a claritiers to ~ CHARTERS 800
gallonsl with the same number of laborers as
we used heto o. Since wei are using the Crusher
the extraction has increased considerably and
the trash leaves the roller mill ier than
formerly and make excellent fuel. By adding
the Hrusher We apprehended that our stenm-
ing capacity might be insufficient, but we find
that the Crusher and the three roller mill to-
gether consume less power than did the roll
er mill before alone. The extraction OF the
Crusuer amounts to 30 per cent. OF the Juice
and the roller mill receives steady and
regular feed thereby decreasing the risk of
breaking he roller shafts
We can recommend the KreJewski Cane

In ono family, where there are numer-
Gus sideaches, backaches, bruises and
sprains, tho porous plaster has come to
be q recognized institution. Its putting
ON is generally accepted with delight,
but when it comes TO the taking of the
"oh, dearsi'' and "don 'tsi" and cries of
pain are many and emphatic. Even aft
er the plaster is pulled off there is
layer Of adhesive gum ON the skin that
is struggled with in all sorts Of ways.
Sometimes the razor is employed for
scraping, sometimes n sharp knife is
brought into use, and again soft warm
cloth is pressed over the spot, and when
this has firmly attached itself the peel
ing process goes ON.
Now the New York Ledger tells that
those who have occasion to use this ap-
plication will find immediate relief
from their annoyance il they will, after
raising one side of the plaster, wet the
surface of the skin with alcohol, allow
ing it TO run down as the plaster is
pulled little II any Of the gummy
substance remains, bit Of rag wet with
alcohol will cleanse the surface almost
Immediately. This also has another ad-
vantage in that the stimulating effect OF
the alcohol prevents any possible cold
that might be taken on account of the
removal Of the warm plaster. This is

"From some of the reports circulated

is pretty bad man, whose chief amuse-

consist of highway robbery. But /
think the finest piece of holding up l

young New Yorker who Travelled in our
state and Mexico for druggists fancy

"Thisyoung man, he continued, "was
travelling in the state of Coahuila, Mex
leo, about two years ago and went one
night to Saltillo, the capital of the state
1t was the first time he had been in the
town, and, after transacting a little
business, he started out to see the
sights. AS he entered an isolated street
he was suddenly confronted by brig
andish-looking fellow, who, in glib
mongrel Spanish, demanded his valu-
ables, with accompanying gestures that
made his meaning perfectly ineligible
to the intended victim. The highway
man held in one hand long, sinister
looking knife and waved it about in
suggestive manner which implied the
necessity of ready compliance with his
wishes or tragic result.
'But the salesman was a man Of quick
wit and ready resources. Instead of
handing over his property ne thrust his
hand into his pocket, and a moment
later the cold, shiny barrel of what
seemed to be revolver was pointed at
the would-be robbers head.

Naturally, the surprise caused by
the unexpected production of the sup
posed revolver produced change in
the confident manner in which the rob-

and he started back. Instantly the
salesman knocked the knife from his
hand, stopped down, picked it up, took

he asked if it were not an offense for

was. Then he demanded the arrest of
the young salesman, charging him with

was true. This was admitted He was
then asked if he still had the weapon

He was informed that such circum-

had violated the law.

GRIZZLY AND SILVER TIP.
Three Types in California of Immense
Size and Strength.

Size and Strength.
The grizzly bears found all through
the canyons of the Rocky and Coast
mountains and spurs of the Sierra Ne
vada range seldom descend from lofty
attitudes, where they manage year in
and year out to eke out a subsistence
near the perpetual snow line. An old
and experienced hunter has said that
"any mans fool to go in arter bear
alone" The bruins of the east and the
bruins of the west are almost totally
different animals. The Ursa Majors of
the Sierras are monstrous in size, en-
dowed with ugly dispositions and pro-
digious strength, and as for grit, they
dispute-and very often successfully,
too-the sovereignty of the mountains
and forests with the king of American
beasts, the mountain lion.
Hunters disagree upon the point of
how many different species of the bear
tribe we have in the southwest. There
are at least three distinct types of the
family in California and Lower Califor-
nia-namely, the grizzly, brown and
black bear. Besides these there are
also gray bears, cinnamon bears and
the Sierra grayback. The true gray is
seldom, if ever, seen now as far north
as the 45th parallel, and as far east as
the main divide; the cinnamon is sim
ply cross between the brown and
black bears, and the mighty silver tip
is neither more nor less than mongrel
of the brown and grizzly, partalling
strongly of the natures of the two, but
particularly of the latter. All the mem
bcrs of the species intermarry, and the
silver tip is the king of the family.
This big fellow, springing from the
grizzly and the brown, combines all the
| ferocity and tough strength of the for
mer with the agility and stubbornness
of the latter, each distinctive trait be-
ing more prominent in him and pos
sessed to greater degree than by the
| very animals from whom he borrows
them. The silver tip is unquestionably
the ruler of the family by reason of his
greater size and belligerent disposi-
ton. Lewis and Clarke, in their mar
rative of their journey to the Pacific
coast nearly hundred years ago, speak
of meeting not only brown and black
bears, but also numerous white bears,
that made it perilous travelling at times
for various members of that bold pio-
neer party.-N. Y. Times.

THE teachers institute, conclud-
ed last week at Thatcher, was one
of the most enthusiastic and far
reaching in its nature ever held in
the Territory. All the teachers in
the county were present except
three, and the attendance of those
outside of the teachers, who are in
terested in education was large.
The results which are sure to fol-
low this meeting will be of great
value to the children of Graham
county, and the exchanging of
ideas between the teachers and the
instructions given by Supt. Neither
ton will be of inestimable value to
our public educators.
The entertainment given the
teachers and visitors by the people
of Thatcher, was highly appreciat-
ed by all and is worthy of imita
ton, and the example they have
set will no doubt be followed by
the people of the towns where the
institute may be held In the future.
The papers read in the institute
by Prof. l.. V. Rosser, of Thomas,
and John McGowen, of Stafford
were ordered published by an unan'
imous vote of the institute,
and the same will appear in the

In its last issue, the Bulletin says
that Thos. e. Williams is by far
the best teacher that has ever been
put in charge of the Academy at
Thatcher. All who know Mr..
Williams are aware that he is a
good teacher and is dong splendid
work in the Academy but when a
paper undertakes to pull down one
man, or set of men, to build another
it is not fair, to say the least. Of
course all who are acquainted with
the situation know that it was a
mean little "jab" at Judge Cluff
as we do not believe the Bulletin
can even name the different prin
cipals who have had charge of the
Academy, much less judge of the
work accomplished. Mr.. Williams
with his assistants, is doing noble
work in the school, but the work
done by his predecessors was just as
great and the results were just as
satisfactory to the people, and we
believe that the credit due them
should be given.
