Washington, April 19.-Concul Mills
at Honolulu in a communication 10 the
state department says: Sugar is now be-
ing shipped direct TO New York from
Honolulu. New arrangements have been
made by the Western Sugar Refining
company for this purpose. 1t is esti-
mated that the new deal will divert at
least 10000 tons of sugar from the port
OF San Francisco to New York during
the present year This will cause con-
siderable loss to the lumber and coal
laden vessels which come TO Honolulu
from the Pacific coast and heretofore
generally secured cargo of sugar for
San Francisco. Many vessels left here
this year in Ballast, and others had to
wait considerable length of time for
a load. Railroads in the United States
will also lose considerable freight, as
most OF the sugar now being carried
around Cape Horn was conveyed across
the continent of America by rail. The
first vessel leaving Honolulu for New
York carrying sugar for the Western
company was the Kenilworth and she
cleared March 5. and aboard 3,SS9 tons,
invoiced at 5000. 423. The Charmer clear

government that property purchased
by foreigners should not be used for
schools houses and churches, also the
restrictions upon printed matter.
Minister Terrell informed Mr.. Jewett,
a missionary, in a letter, that the lega-
ton will promptly protest against the
closing of Armenian chapels, and
schools, and that the question of the
validity Of the order prohibiting the
sale of land unless it was specified that
IT was not to be used for churches or
schools, was still unsettled.

over and under the innumerable fallen
logs and interlacing branches, may be
more easily imagined than described
However weary the hunter may be, he
must never for one instant relax his
caution, and in those large silent woods
never, if possible, break stick.
The moose has an intensely acut.
sense of hearing and smelling, and as,
of course, despite all his caution, when
hunting before the snow has come, the
hunter, although moccasin- clad, must
break sticks sometimes, he finds fire.

trail through one of these horrible
woods, that on reaching the other side
the quarry has started off across mile
of open prairie to seek the shelter Of
asimilar cover on the other side.
As the moose, even when undis
turbed, is tremendous walker, brows-
ing on the low willows as he goes,
there is no knowing when or where he
will stop again. Things being thus, it
follows that the days when there is a
high wind are the best by far for hunt
ing. Then in the crashing of the fall
ing branches and the rafting of the
limbs of the trees the wary brute gets
